3 20 MM's
« on: March 17, 2018, 06:27:56 PM »
I would like to see 3 20MM's with a Fiat G55 wrapped around them. (plus the 2 12.7's)

I have wished for the Fiat G55, many times with no results. I thought I would change the wording, you know, like sneaking it in so no one would notice.

but shilo- there are different weapon packages like I did the G:55 has just machine guns--the G:55 series 1 has the 3 20mm cannons.

The Fiat G55 might have to be a perked aircraft. It turns like a Spit, has the speed of a Mustang, and has 3 20mm cannons. Reminds me of the F4U-1C

387 mph now wep, 420 with wep at 22k is not bad at all, even if a speed chart is needed to determine its real capabilities. Wing loading is ~35 lbs/ft^2, which place it in pair with the La:s, C.202 Yaks and Spit XIV. So a very good fighter but maybe not worthy a perk. I would say ENY 5.

Edit: found this, its says 500kph (310mph) on the deck, i assume its non wep, but its not that impressive, it can match a spit IX. But high alt performance is pretty impressive, better than pretty much all other Axis fighters.

If the G.55 is a 5 ENY fighter, does that make the Yak-3, Spit XVI and F4U (-)5 ENY?   12-15 ENY would be more like it.

Maybe perk the torpedo.

Yes, after finding the speed chart i agree that 5 ENY is too low, 15 is more appropriate.

Of course, the G55 serie 1 is what I was wanting.
