I completely agree with Russian. It was also my first time in the CT and I thought the P40 v. A6M fights were great.
There was a very good discussion of the attributes of the two planes from other pilots. After reading all of them, I don't think the plane makes near as much difference as the pilot. When good pilots flew A6M they had many P40 kills, when good pilots flew P40's, they had many kills.
I mean, we all know the Zeke out turns the 40 and the 40 is faster. The good pilots, I'm not one but working on it, manage to find a way to make the fight one that favors their plane.
