How do you figure that a plane which can outrun practically every other plane in the game except the 262, can outturn most planes and has lazer guided heatseeking uber cannons is one of the easiest planes in the game to kill??


Practical application...and no, I don't fly the La7.

Just lookin at your scores bro, impressive.  Lemme ask you a question.  Flyin in the F6F or 9U, what do you do when you outfly the la7 and just as soon as you are getting ready for the shot, the guy breaks and just heads for the hills?  Cause sure as hell as soon as I get on ones 6 thats what he does.

Mebbe I keep comin up against the 'runners' just annoys me that I have to pay 70 perkies for a plane thats outperformed in almost every aspect by a freebie.

Gremlin:

Basically you sucker them into turning a little bit too much so they get slow, or you force an overshoot and kill them quickly.  Either way you can't be liesurely about getting your guns on target because if you give them enough time they can run.  And the La7 gun package ain't that great.  It hits hard but ballistics and sight visibility leave something to be desired.
