I fly the La7 a lot since it is a 9GIAP aircraft, but since a lot of n00bs fly it and they are generally as easy to kill as I am, why should HT bother to perk it?
Yeah it's 5ENY and that just means more perks for you mid to low ENY pilots who kill it. It really won't bother me at all if it does get perked, but I do like to get the perks from knocking the n00bs out of the sky in them too. A perked La7 means less high perk kills.

There good plane, but a bit to good. Typh is perked but put it up some more. It was never a great fighter and only made in small numbers. So I say perk both at 60

personally, I dont think the Typhs eny should even be 10. The P-47D40s eny should be 10. not 20, switch em.  :devil

Typhoons are absolute rubbish. Whenever I see one I think "easy kill". They only danger they present is the the 4 x Hizooka cannon package.

If you fly with half a brain the guns won't get near you. Thus, it is an utterly useless aircraft.

I'm overstating things slightly here but for all intents and purposes it doesn't matter, the Typhoon will never be perked.

It doesn't have an undue influence on the game and that is all there is to it.

Two observations:

1)  Anyone who thinks the typhoon needs to be perked doesn't understand that a Tempest will show as "TYPH" until it is close enough.  Mistaken identity is the only explanation that makes any sense (at least to my pea sized brain).

2)  Someone needs to tell BnZ to go back and re-read Ack-Acks post s l o w l y because he missed Ack-Ack's point by a wide margin.

i use em for ground attack mostly
if i gotta get somewhere fast and get out fast, but still hittin it hard, i use typh.
its fast, has 4x hizookas, but is slow to get top speed, poor on fuel, has a almost nonexistant roll rate, bad climber, bleeds E in turns quickly and has a fragile radiator
most people think they are the same as tempests, but that cant be further from the truth. Temp is a 100% improvement

Wow.    You know how to use "periods".   Let's try and work on the fragmented sentences. 

It never was a great "fighter" because it was a great "ground attack" aircraft.   

Typhoon is NOT perked, the Tempest IS perked.

Sir, insult is the last refuge of the out-argued, and is already both ubiquitous and pathetic all over the internet. Let's keep things polite.

I pointed out that practically almost every late-war fighter has an advantage or two to play against the Typh in a dogfight at realistic MA alts. The same cannot be said of the LA7. Thus the notion of perking the former IS abit out there, while with the latter, it is not as unreasonable.

BTW, for the record, I think giving the guy an actual explanation of the Typh's weaknesses is more helpful and persuasive than simply calling some inexperienced player a skilless dweeb right out of the starting gate to amuse the forumites.

No offense but if you thought E25280's post was insulting, you really do need a much thicker skin.

HUH???? tiff is NOT perked...silly boy...and yes it was made in small numbers but its still a great plane...very sexy one i might add. this thread makes no sense at all and i have no clue why u would even bother to post it. if u really knew what u was talkin about u would know that the temp is the perked one for whatever reason. It was never a great fighter...ummmm no it was found not to be a good fighter but a awsome gv killer. but in the game...i can fight just fine in the tiff.

Where is the insult?  Someone called me 'stupid' once just because he believed only vets of AH deserve a sheep avatar.  That was an insult.  If you follow E25280's advice you'll say 'oops' and move on.  We forgive you. :P

This is all true, but you missed the sarcasm in ack-ack's post.

Thicker skin is no defense against people who haven't actually insulted you. :lol
