To threads discussing the differences between the old AH2 Spit Mark Vc and the New Vb as well as threads discussing the differences between the old G10 and the new G14 and K4?
Since I can't search on Vb or K4, I'm having difficulty find them.
Thanks!

Vc - 16lbs boost, 120 rounds per cannon.
Vb - 12lbs boost, 60 rounds per cannon.
Can't help you on the G-10/14/K4 one.

Thanks Kev, know of any threads? Also, got any of them climb, speed, turn and roll rate analyses? For instance, the spit 5b is definitely weaker, but still seems to out turn (but not out roll) the new Spit XVI.

The V'll still out turn any of the two stage Merlin Spits, but it lost an awful lot of "oomph". The reduction to +12lbs boost greatly reduced it's acceleration/climb rate. The older drum fed cannons are limited to 60 rounds per gun and that has an obvious effect.
The Spit I was raised in boost to +12lbs from ~+8.5lbs, but I have heard there are issues with it since v2.06 p1, though I've not tested that myself.
The Bf109G-10 was renamed Bf109K-4 (which it always had been in any case, but was fudged up as a G-10 to get the 20mm options). The performance should still be the same, but it lost the options for the gondolas and the 20mm hub gun.
The Bf109G-14 was added to fill the massive gap between the Bf109G-6 and Bf109K-4. It is essentially a late Bf109G-6 with MW50 boost whice gives it significantly better power below FTH of 5000m (16,400ft). It has all the gun options the old Bf109G-6 had.
The Bf109G-6 lost the option for the 30mm hub gun as it now represents an earlier, 1943 version.
The Bf109G-2 had no changes.
The Bf109F-4 lost the option for the gondolas as they were very rare on the Bf109F-4.

Thanks Karnak,
Any idea when we'll get an updated AH2 help file with the new performance charts and specs?
