In the thread for the upcoming "Big Week" scenario a comment was made (a seconded) about the great matchup between the P-47D11 and the FW-190A5, two very-well matched airframes in AH.
Started me wondering about other Allies-Axis matchups. What do you guys think are the other very well matched opponents in AH?
Spit I vs 109E, and Spit V vs 109F?
F4U-1A vs Ki.84?
P-40N vs Ki.61?
F6F-5 vs A6M5?
Brewster vs Rata or Ki.43?
P-51D vs 109G14?
Yak 3 vs K4?
Actually its sortof hard finding Axis/Allies airframes that have similiar performance, since during the War design considerations started to diverge quite a bit. Is there any Axis airframe that had as low a rollrate as the P-38G?
-
Brewster vs Rata
I was testing a Winter War setup Perdweeb was making a few years ago. The Brew eats up I-16's.
-
P-47D-11/25 vs FW190A-5
-
190s vs jugs in general are fun matchups
My favorite is a 23-25K fight TA152 vs P51D
-
I don't know what the rollrate is on the P-38G but I'd guess the bf 110 would have the slow roll rate, speaking strictly of slow roll rate axis planes.
Is there any Axis airframe that had as low a rollrate as the P-38G?

I remember me and a friend(creton) did fights in the old Dueling arena a while back. We tested German planes against Russian planes. We found there was a very close accuracy with the historical data that was available. I-16 vs 109E, La5 vs 109f, la7 vs G series, Yak vs k4.

Spit I vs 109E,
I've always thought this was the very best AvA fight.
38G v 202 is also a good one, but not as good as Spit I v Emil.

38G vs Ki61 good match up also....

And the Ki-43 eats the Brewster.
F4F vs A6M2 is surprisingly a pretty even match in a scenario.

depends on altitude
-
A Brewster can dive away yes, but it pretty much the only advantage it has against the Ki. As soon as you start to turn the Ki will win.

...and attitude :P
-
Tempest vs Ta152 maybe?
-
The plane I just jumped into and the first red icon plane I find! :aok Though nothing beats the early war British/German matchups. Spits/109's are great stuff.
-
Hurri 1 v Emil, 110 G2 v Mossie 6. I think the Hurri 1 is one of the most fun to fly planes in the game.
-
f4u vs. niki is my favorite matchup in the ma.
dead hogs make a good bed. :old:
-
Tempest vs Ta152 maybe?
If the tempest actually dropped flaps the 152 would eat it up.

Around 15 to 20K they match up a lot better

should of been more specific I was talking about the Zeak vs wildcat
-
190A8 vs B17 :devil
-
I really enjoy the P-51 B/D against the 109K4, I've and some very good high, and low alt fights in both planes. I do love fighting against anything in my 109F, but as mentioned before the 109F and Spit V are a great match up against each other I love it.
-
Tempest vs Ta152 maybe?
tempest will turn rings around ta152
-
According to DokGonzo's aircraft comparison charts, the Spit IX matches pretty well against the 109G-2. While the Spit has quite an advantage in firepower lethality, the 109 should have an advantage in roll rate.
-
The Ki-84 vs. F4U-1A the OP menioned is a helluva matchup.
-

Not above 20K..above 25 there isn't many planes as capable as the TA152...thing is very easy up there

Spit 8 make num nums outta 152 also Spit 14. :neener:

Longest fight I've ever had was with Oldman and a Spit1 vs Emil. I believe we went 12 minutes and both of us augered! a white knuckle draw!!

Even on the deck I still would take the 152. Just my prefrence. The tempest is total crap slow. The roll rate alone would have it killed. I would just do a scissor against your torque and your doomed

Pretty good matchups next week in Combat Challenge...

A couple of my favs:
109G14-K-6 vs P38J
KI84 vs F4U
Nik vs F4U or F6F
P51D V 190A5 or P38
Hurr2C vs spit5
109 vs La7
:aok
-
JU88 Vs Tu2.
-
P47 vs. FW190a5 can be a lot of fun but if the Jug pilot knows how to use flaps it won't end well for the 190.
-
109f vs spit v
-
empty B-17 vs any axis fighter at 35k excluding the torch (163)
-
P-51D vs P-51D -- stall fight.
-
P-51D vs P-51D -- stall fight.
Can confirm
-
109f vs spit v
Not according to this month's Allies :devil.... I do agree though one of the most even matchups
