Great fuel and ord loadout, 6 .50 cals and speed. ENY is good at 5.  :salute

Why do you think the ENY should be raised?

Because Nate cant fly the p51.

Now that I think about it, he has trouble flying anything.

The 109K should be 5 with the P-51 and P-47.  Sh*t, make everything have a ENY of 5.

The M model jug doesn't carry 3000 lbs or ord.

The 109K4 and 47M are not as versatile as the 51D. This is one reason why their respective ENYs are higher.

109k has only average fuel, 0 ordinance, and 3 guns. Yes it has 30mm, but only 65 rounds, and the 2 13mm require a bit more skill and firing time to be effective.

Look at what the most used fighters are.  That is why the P-51D has an ENY of 5.

While this is true, isn't it also it's K/D and some other factors that decide it's ENY?  By the way I oppose raising it's ENY.  I believe it to be accurate for current usage and such.

ENY not generated by a single criterion. It's by taking everything into account... pure performance, versatility, usage and so on.

Loosh said it correctly: the P51D is highly versatile.  It can do all roles very well.  Yes, even the turn fight.   ;)
