Not another yes - no arguement i was just wondering if anyone had a detailed performance breakdown - speeds at differing alt, climb rates, wing and power loading (with comparisons against it's contemporaries hopefully )

If thats not to much to ask

Fast as all get out on the deck.

4 20mm Hispano MkV cannon with 140 rpg (I think).

I've seen 200rpg but I am not sure about that.
How much detail do the pilot notes go into?
