Actually, the 190 was a VERY feared aircraft in WWII, so calling it "the crap 190" isn't really accurate. Flown well in-game, and it's something to fear in AH too.
Anyone want to just answer the OP without flaming please?
Yeah, but this isn't WWII.
Remember, in the real air war, job one was seeing the other guy before he saw you.
When the 190A first came out, it was faster and had more engine power than most anything, had heavy firepower, was one of the first planes with a "bubble-like" canopy, had excellent roll rate and yes, it was really feared. Being faster decreases the probability that the bandit will spot you in between the time you spot him and bounce him and you fire. Heavy firepower means one pass is more likely to be all it takes. Roll rate means one could more easily compensate for a sudden break on the opponent's part, or execute a Split S if bounced that was darn hard to follow. Being faster in level flight and dives meant that in any kind of combat situation, the only shot you'd likely get on him if he knew you were there would be a head-on, and you didn't want to head-on something with that kind of firepower advantage. Its controls were fairly light and easy to handle through a wide range of speeds. Strain your arm trying to get maximum available aileron deflection in any AH plane lately? Didn't think so.
In these situations, its turning ability or lack thereof was usually irrelevant.
Here in AHII, conditions are different. An un-engaged bandit spying its attacker is almost a given, what with icons, (needed though they are, as long as computer screens are unable to render real-world depth of detail.) Many airplanes challenge or exceed the various 190s for speed, acceleration, and firepower. Moreover, what the 190s excelled at and what most everyone was trying to do in WWII as often as possible, namely, make a surprise bounce at high speed, kill without warning, and be gone too quick to follow if the attack failed-is a frowned-upon tactic in Aces High.
