ok ju87 had better wing loading than il-2
-Wing loading is more critical in turning than power / mass
-power to mass is for climb ratios
When flying at low alts and slowly it would handle better, maybe not by much, but when close to the ground it may be enough to keep you alive.
I was wrong about rate of climb based on stats but I think the posted numbers are incorrect based on the games modeling.
In game I get about 1000 ft / minute. (87)
Posted results are 750 ft / min for D and G models (factual)
il-2 about 2000 ft / min (never see this in game - this is for the 23mm version not 37mm with 120 rounds)
Origional post is not for a wish but for a discussion based on why do we not have 37mm for the D model currently in the game? Especially since it played a major role in the war.
The Ju 87 is not really a smaller target. Wingspan 15m with wing area 33.6mē. length 11m Il-2 has wingspan 14,6m, wing area 38mē, length 11.65m

And furthermore, the 87 is a much move vulnerabe target than a Il-2
I also doubt the 87G has that better flight performance at low level. Power/mass ratio isn't any better than the il-2m3
um im looking at more wing area on both tail and main wing.
the converted D and then the G were up armored versions.
