Title: Speed and Climb Charts at netAces
Post by: xHaMmeRx on October 15, 2004, 01:15:01 PM
Greetings All,

Just added an Excel File of Speed and Climb Rates (http://www.netaces.org/ahplanes/comparisons/speed-climb.xls). Also added the remaining fighters to the Speed (http://www.netaces.org/ahplanes/comparisons/speed.htm) and Climb Rate (http://www.netaces.org/ahplanes/comparisons/roc.htm) java applets.

Hope they're helpful!

Make sure you have Java enabled.  Also, under internet options/advanced, be sure you have Java enabled.

MS removed the MS Java virtual machine in one of the IE patches, as to conform with the monoploy lawsuit or something..

you have to DL and install your own JAVA plugin

see sun JAVA on web.

Thanks Hammer,
if I may ask where does this info come from for the EXCEL spreadsheet? how was these number gathered/calculated?

the comparison for the speed/climb java chart is for reference only correct? these graph overlays have not been updated to AH2 stats yet have they?


agains Thank You  :)

All the data on both the spreadsheet and the java comes from HiTech's performance charts. I pasted them into powerpoint, added grid lines, then distributed them evenly between each hash mark. I then looked at them with the Mk I eyeball. I took readings at every 5k (for the spreadsheet) or anyplace the line changed (for the java) and recorded it. I'd be willing to bet they are within 1 mph either way with HTC's charts.

In theory, those two performance parameters remained constant from AH1 to AH2 but I have not done any testing in AH2 yet. The planes I checked in AH1 were pretty much in line with the charts.

I have to tell you xHammer that my son who just turned 9 is able to read and undertstand the charts. Thanks to your site he learned how. I spent about 30 minutes going over them one day with him and he understands the speed and alt chart quite well. About 2 weeks ago he spent 1/2 his flying time looking over the charts. Every couple of days it is "Papa did you know the P-51B is faster than the P-51D on the deck"? Or "Papa did you know the P-38 is faster than the Me-110 at 20k"?  

LOL He is the math wiz out of all my kids. :)

FYI the Yak9T is still listed to have WEP.

hi hammer

those figures are for AH1.

plane performence have changed in AH2 and those graphs are no longer accurate

per an email from Pyro, most are still valid. There have been a couple of changes. When they are posted, I will update the charts.

hammer..is there a place to find the V speeds?

i woudl liek to hav ethe Vy-Vx and Vg speeds


btw..When I first started playing AW-and AH.. i used netaces and printed the charts out

Absolutly great...I cannot understand how anyone could win a fite without knowing what the nme plane is capable of doing

excellent job..

No. The 109G-10 is the fastest unperked plane at alt (on WEP).

alt/speed 0k   0k   1k   1k   5k   5k   10k 10k 15k   15k   20k   20k   25k   25k   30k   30k   Max/Alt

109G-10:          338   368   343   374   369   398 383 413   398   428   413   446   430   445   424   433   453/22

P-51B:              349   359   352   363   371   380 392   401   414   422   418   418   417   427   440   442   444/29

Spit 14:            334   362   338   366   359   387 384   411   395   404   386   418   410   440   427   427   445/26


lol spit 14 should be litely perked (or might as well unperk it) to chog standards or (else) lightly perk the 109G-10, P-51s, La-7, Fw-190D-9 (the super La-7), P-38L, P-47D40, Yak-9U:)

So no where to easily find Vy, Vx , Vg speeds?
Title: Speed and Climb Charts at netAces
Post by: GScholz on October 18, 2004, 04:18:37 AM
... In fact the 109G-10 is the fastest propeller driven plane in the game, perk or no perk.

.....at altitude, and i think that from some point the Ta152 over take it

Yes I'm talking about maximum level speed at rated altitude/optimal altitude. I don't think the Ta152 can do 453 mph in Aces High. I think it comes close to 450 mph at 35-40K, but that's off the chart.

Actually, I'm mistaken. The Ta152 does 454 mph at 30k, and I assume it is even faster at 35k.
