Spit14 Scourge Fix

[MK-84]

The real scourge of course is the F4u1A 

Oddly not used enough to be branded as such.

"Scourge" TRANSLATION- "P-51 jocks are used to their run-stangs having 20 mph on Spits instead of a virtual dead heat".

957.

More than Tempests or Fw190D-9s, less than Bf109K-4s.

I think only about 100 less than spit XVIs too, and I doubt it'll ever be in the long-run even 90% as popular as the current XVI in AH, but %50 at the moment is pretty cool.

And yes, it's a blast against runstangs.

Rich46yo,

No need to use derogatory terms for the airplanes.  Just call them P-51s or Mustangs and say that some players who are used to being able to just run from Spitfires in them have issues with the Mk XIV.

Spit XVI is really a Spitfire LF.Mk IX, it just has an American built Merlin, so you have to combine those production numbers and you end up with 4500 or 5000 of them.

There is a very slight increase in overall Spitfire usage, as most (but not all) current 14 pilots came over from other planes (most notably P-51 and La-7).

When I see an enemy spit 14 and I am in a fighter, I rejoice in having found a spit I will most likely shoot down in short order.

Well there you go.  Spit 14 usage has jumped significantly.

Thanks for posting.  It is always useful to have the facts.
