This is plane for events! 1942 on Eastern Front? This is plane for this.

Sorry, Arlo. The I-16 was in very limited use by August/September '42. I found no evidence of any air regiments in the Leningrad area primarily equipped with Rata's. They were still there, but not even in squadron strength. Yaks, LaGGs, MiGs, and P-40s were far more numerous.

Has there ever been a 1941 or earlier Eastern Front FSO? Operation Barbarossa? Then this event plane will never be used, based on such. :old:
-
Yes there have been FSO's with the I-16. There will be future FSO's with the I-16. Have no fear.

YAKS!

I remember flying the Rata in FSO a long time ago. I recall it being surprisingly effective.

Good to hear. I remembered flying them in an event and actually getting a 110 kill (talk about overjoyed) but I thought it was a regular scenario. Now that I think about, though ....
This was back in my reckless days before wearing tri-focals. Guess I just wanna fly the Mosca since I was one of the oddballs that advocated it's addition to the plane set. I will look forward to flying it when it comes up.
(I really do think the FSO design teams do good work.) :salute :cheers:

Anti-Horde Updated... :salute

I love the I-16 and may be its biggest fan, but there is simply no place for it in this setup.
-
Understood. I'll be looking forward to it.
Perhaps Mosca (non-cannon) vs. BF109E (closest avail) in Spain. :D

Trust me, we have some crazy ideas...just have to convince the FSO population to fly them :)

Against my somewhat better judgement ( or lack thereof ) G3-MF updated.

Been freaking busy at the office and forgot to post. Pigs were updated a few days ago! :salute

Uhhh, the c205 is a poor substitute to the MiG-3. Maybe if both WEP and the 20ms are disabled it would work.
MiG-3 314mph sea level
398 at 25k
2 12.7mgs, 1 7.62 mg
3450 fpm climb at sea level
C205 332mph at sea level
2 20mm canons
2 12.7mm mgs
3900fpm climb at sea level
Wing loading is comparable
39.87 for MiG-3
41:21 for C205
-
The 20mm are disabled in this design.
C.205's speed at 25K is 400mph
Hp/Lb is .18 for the MiG and .19 for the C.205
These plane are very similar.

Arabian Knights updated! :aok
