awww, all the pony pilots going to cry now cause they might acutally have to fight.

Name the place and time, you're gonna get (ridiculously) schooled by a F4U1a while in a pony by this community.   :rofl :lol


I agree, we need to unperk the F4U-4.  It is very inferior to planes that are above me when I'm taking off of a capped field or CV.  Might as well unperk the 262, too.  There's no way that plane can have any chance of survival with 190s and P51s above the base.

+1 to unperking the F4U-4 and Me-262

9/10, you forgot the Spit XIV   :aok

Speed is the name of the game when you're flying the F4U-4 or any Corsair for that matter.  The -4 easily can outrun a P-51D on the deck.

The -4 can easily out everything the P-51D on the deck.

I fly the -4 a decent amount.  I do have trouble outrunning LA7s here and there, but if I stay high they normally aren't a bother.

QFT, its way more important to  perk the KI-84 as last time I was on one kept bouncing my 262 as I was taking off from a runway, hed let me get about 1k from the AA and dive in on me before I could get to speed. If only we had moible dar to replace the field dar so  would have know there was a ne close by,  I saw darbar but not a little red dot  so I didnt now how clos ehe was and fighure di could up a 262 with a horde near.

Ki-84 can do up to about 480 m.p.h in a dive in experienced hands.

The F4U-4 is unperked at the furball lake in the DA.

Some one always has to turn the CV when I have 2 minutes of fuel left... :noid

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.

Speed is speed.  There is nothing in the Me262 that makes in inherently uncatchable.  An Me262 doing 400mph will indeed be caught by many piston engined fighters that have some altitude on it, including the Ki-84.
