I've never been in a fight like the one I described, I remember a night with Grizz and Kappa where we took the glitched 163 base  :rock

The first flight was K4 vs 51's, the second flight was 152's vs 47Ms and the third was A5's vs LA5's with group merge alts at 20K, lmao.  By the last one, we had another 20 per side in the fight so I think at one point Kappa counted 39 guys in our group heading to one spot on the map.  It was the most fun I'd ever had in the game in the MA.

Ta-152H has been unperked since about 4th quarter 2006

By the way, a very high share of it's kills are bombers: 46%, while the late war fighters generally average at about 25%. Only the Me 163, Me 262 and Me 410 have an even higher percentage.

Is there a way to tell its k/d for each tour? (Or year)

I think the TA changed, it's much faster on deck than before.

It still has the same top speed on deck as 9 years ago when I joined AH.

Perhaps it accelerates faster then.

There ain't enough of you left :D

That would be a fun fight though.

20k+ merge alt w/  10 V 10. ......This needs to be done

There used to be a regular annual event with Axis on one side and Allies on the other.  Search for "rumble" by user "Nash".  It was a hoot :cheers:
