I do find this annoying.............. VVS / Tsagi recorded the combat turn performance of every ac they find yet fail to even look at stuff like roll rate!

They fed the "troll" then ratted him out for being full.

Well, there are numbers posted from the Russians, and numbers from AH II.
Makes an interesting comparison anyway. Even if the diameters don't match, there is always the percentage and rank calculations, and from a brief look, they don't look too far apart.
It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)

LOL you havent see Kurfie attack people.

When i started "Is Spitfire V still the dominant mark in mid-war" kurfie went "free-for-all Tony Montana style" personal attacks on kurfie.

The P-39 was actually a fairly manueverable plane.  The Soviets used it as an air superiority fighter, they felt that it held a marked advantage in the horizontal below I want to say 15,000 ft (not certain on that).  

It got a bad rap in the Pacific because it was rather a dog vs the Zeke... the P-63 (P-39 part duex) is the last plane I think that could be introduced into AH that would see any significant use.

Yeah, the P63 was very agile, rather fast and packed a punch.
They have one at Duxford and they say it is a delight to fly.

Did the P-63's use the 37mm too?
