but hey think of how little hp they have...in a 190 you could kill a gladiator in 2 secnds
just think about it
Not really, Biplanes would be very usefull in AH.
They Outmanuver in general ANY other plane in Aces High, sure you can go faster in a 190 but if u get on their tail there is no way you can stay on it over 2 seconds, They can out turn a zero and the gloster gladiator can out roll a 190!.
And if your answer is you can just run away from em... well thats true but the objective is to shoot the other guy down

And look at the D3A1 (10 MPH slower than Gloster Gladiator), SBD-5 (same speed as Gloster Gladiator) and A6m2 (only 15-20MPH faster than CR42).
And imagine how usefull they would be to up at a vulched feild, Escourt bombers, and in the hs-123 & I-153's case dive bomb.
And planes such as Gloster Gladiator (saw combat untill 1943),
Hs-123 (saw combat untill 1944) and the FaireySword fish wich was used through out the entire war were used a great deal.
