Gladiator had no chance. PZL not compress in diving
By compression at several pilots were killed in France. The Poles did not know this.
and all PZL had dropped the fuel tank.
:D

I don't believe the PZL ever had cannons. MG-only, I seem to recall.
-
sure, had cannons
-
The P24-F and G models (sold to Greece) had the Cannons. The early models were 4xMGs.
-
These were the fighters that were responsible for shooting down the German bombers early in Polish campaign, yes?
-
I153 is probably the most used biplane of WWII.

Poland sold the P24 on exports
we had only P 11 and P 7

PZL had a few followers :)

As much as I would want to have those planes in AH they would be completely useless, even in the early war arena. The only use for them that I see is ones every few years in special events arena.
-
+1 for PZL naturally cause I'm from Greece, as for the arena thing, lets make a forth one a midwar - Spanish civil arena (1930-1939)
-
Sure PZL P24 for the early arena , like Russian I16 or Brewster.
possible scenarios>
War over Poland
Balkan campaign
operation Barbarossa
Spanish civil war? maybe...

I disagree.... I don't know the specs and performance of any of those planes, but I'd venture a guess that (at least the biplanes) many of them could be flown in any of the current MAs and land kills, just like the Brew and I16 do regularly, just be more careful and choose your fights. killing LW planes with a 40 eny bird is fun..... I can only imagine the perkies landing kills in a 50+ eny bird would earn ya! :lol

Value:
maximum safe speed in a dive = 696km / h
Without compression on aircraft rudders
look good?

Compression and heavy control forces are not the same thing. Take an A6M5 up and dive it to 400mph, it is not compressed, just very heavy on the controls.
