Ta152, should it be perked?

Don't believe it will be perked...if it is , it won't make much sense to this cadet.

BTW, how does the pony stack up to the 152's high alt performance?

Of course it will be perked, any plane that can cruise at 40,000 ft at 470 mph and have excellet performance all the way down to 25k should be perked, I don't want to see alot of dweebs flying around in these and ruining its rep like the A5.

if they model it accurately.... they will have to pay people to fly it.

 Enough ammunition for one/two passes of a main gun after which it becomes just hundreds of pounds of dead weight?
 300+ extra pounds of front armor?

 That plane would suck if used as fighter. Why shouldn't it? It was never ment to be a fighter. It was an interceptor intended to get point-blank close to a bomber formation, receive lots of 0.50 hits in the forward hemisphere and bring a pilot back alive.

At 30,000ft the Ta 152H-1 is 45mph faster and it's climbrate is 1000fpm greater.

If its non-perked then the P51-H should be too. Ultimate version vs ultimate version. I know the H never saw combat while the Ta-152 did, yadedahdedah... the P51H just arrived at the front too late - 555 were produced.

What would u see if these planes where not perkes. U send some off them at high speed high alt to nme HQ. U gain airsuperiority at once. Now u let the buffs come in at 30K   and the HQ is flat without any resistance. Even my p38 won't help there any more

BUg, then grab a Ta-152  .

I mean, that's what us LW's have been told  .

I know that you're a pretty dedicated 38 pilot, so I am sure you appreciate how lame that comment was.

I think it should be perked because there were so few of them made.
