109F. Nothing else can match it in the skies. Nothing!!!  :D


It's got all the 109 attributes! Excellent climb rate, excellent flaps, decent speed, and then it's got it's own uniqueness such as a super light airframe. That lightness and powerful engine as a beautiful combination. Unlike the later 109s the F model doesn't have insane engine torque but still enough torque to pull off those one of a kind 109 moves  :devil . On top of all of that, the maneuverability!! I have easily turned with and out turned all spits (excluding the 1 and 5) and zekes (excluding the A6M2).

the 109F is by far the greatest of the 109 series. K4 ain't got NOTHING on the F4!  :D

I prefer the G-2 but only because the lack of speed on the F makes shooting hard for me. If I was great with the F-4, it would be an easy choice. The F is superior in that fight but, I need a crutch. That crutch is power.

No, I hate the 109F. That's why it's my #1 most flown plane.  :devil

The fastest - the K4. Those who start knife fights in 109's usually end up being easy kills.

E-4/F-4.  Both will turn with anything in the game.  The E-4 lacks the engine and firepower of the F-4 but you'll look better fighting in it and feel better if you land some kills.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

Yeah the 109f is def the best. It also out performs the E with speed and excel. For some reason my bullets don't work well in AH so I don't fly it for the fact that I shoot someone 50 times and issue no damage. Sigh.  The G14 is my favorite because I like the Gondies and I'd rather kill them faster than chase them and get picked. The G14 has a powerful enough engine where the Gondies don't really make much of a difference, if any.  But all 109s lose to the F model in a turnfight.

109F

Just hold the trigger down longer

Sometimes you don't even need to do that. A well aimed burst is just as good in the F4 as 8 50s on a Jug. I've taken the wings off planes with about 10 20mms used.  :)
