Are you refering to the fact that it is too slow at altitude, or something new?  Please elaborate.

Way too slow at altitude, climbs too bad (about 2.3 meters per second too bad to be exact). And the fact that the GM1 and MW50 don't seem to modelled at all. Specially not the Gm1. The only thing that is modelled with the GM1 and MW50 in the TA152 is the weight...

But then again, I've posted proof several times so I really don't know why I care anymore, think I'll just drop it here and see what else will go wrong...

I can say this much and yes it is related to FIghter Ace but god I loved flying the D-12.  The 152 is at best a lashed up D-9 that is slower with a little bit better in armament.  To me there really is no reason to fly the 152 unless like me you just love GE planes.  I don't even think the damn thing should be perked at all.  Performance speaking I can track them down in my dora even at 20k.  And how many times do we actually get above 20k?  I think I might have hit it twice this month chasing a lanc or two :)  If they are fighters no reason to go up there as the 152 accelerates like an old person thats constipated.  And that is at all alts.  I think maybe 1-2 perks would suffice but 20 still is high for it.

HTC has the same problem what RAF in post WW 2 test of Ta- 152. Impossible to find  GM-1 and MW-50.

I'm not sure if your saying that there isn't any info available that the 152 carried Gm1/Mw50, but i'll post this anyway.

Go to the Ta152H-1 (ah model), and it's listed as ja,ja (yes,yes) for Mw50 and GM1. Not sure why it isnt in the AH model

Also notice that on that Chart the H-1 should reach 755 (470 MPH). Personally, i have never seen the AH 152 over 400 MPH

Oh, I've most definately had it over 400.  Left a P-51D in the dust at 19,000ft.

However, it does not reach 471mph like it should.  Maybe 450mph, but definately not 471mph.

i've read in other thread that the air speed indicators in AH cockpits are realisticly inaccurate
