vino Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 Simple question; what’s your favourite plane in Great Battles? I love Bf-109 G6, it is just beautiful!
[N.O.G.F]_Cathal_Brugha Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 LA-5 ser8. I don't know why, just really like it. 1
SCG_ErwinP Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 No doubt, Focke Wulf 190 It's more beautiful, more deadly, and technologically ahead of their enemies
Feathered_IV Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 I-16 or Pe-2. I really can’t choose between them.
=621=Samikatz Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 No matter what new planes come out, I always find myself hoping back into the MiG-3 and P-40 when I want some pure fun
RedKestrel Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 I have to say the P-47, though I don't have BoBp yet. Otherwise, the I-16. I love that squirrelly little plane.
IndianJones Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 After doing the first couple of missions of Havoc over the Kuban, I'd probably say the A-20B now - two big radials, fighter-like performance, up to 20x 100kg bombs, she's a beast! Though when the Tempest arrives... 1
RAY-EU Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) Bf 109 K4 < wating for the FW190 D9 & < ME 262 A-1a Edited January 8, 2019 by RAY-EU 1
[PFR]Sarpalaxan Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 Depends. Most Fun: I-16 Best Looking: PE-2 110 Most Effective: A-20
E4GLEyE Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 if Jerry than Ju87, if Ivan than U2 and if Allies than the p38 (will be, for now the a20)
6./ZG26_Klaus_Mann Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) Fly em all, love em all. I tend to avoid the Spits and the Yaks though, one for Neutral Stability, the other for being Neutral Stability when it shouldn't be. In general I believe the Soviet Planes perform OK, but the Control Forces are too low, according to Dive Recovery Instructions. Edited January 8, 2019 by 6./ZG26_Klaus_Mann
Blackhawk_FR Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 I like and mainly fly 109 but Mig3 is lovely and very very good looking.
PatrickAWlson Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 FW190. Love those cannons. On the Russian side I really like the I16.
BlitzPig_EL Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 The A 20. As much as I love the real P40, it really serves no useful purpose in this game as modeled. The A 20 however, rocks. 2
SqueakyS Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 No love for the bf110? Looks nice, fast and has a reasonable payload. What more can a man ask for?
-LUCKY-ThanksSkeletor Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 I-16 for me! I wish we had a I-153 to go along with it!

WheelwrightPL Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) 109 K-4 or G-14 for meteoric climb-rate surpassing even modern military trainer jets like L-39 HS-129 for superior guns: you can destroy an entire train or explode two tanks with a single trigger pull 190 with 6 20mm for unique ability to tangle with 75mm AAA and survive Edited January 8, 2019 by WheelwrightPL 1
Ehret Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 The P-39-L for me... needed some time to get used but I rarely get pilot killed in one. Only one major rule to remember flying the Airacobra - avoid being slow and low. To the contrary of popular opinion you have great overall visibility including backward. The top mirror is just great - pitch up a little, do a half-roll and then let nose down when inverted and the mirror will sweep the whole back from down to up quadrant. The bad is short WEP timer but only 200 rounds per nose mounted 0.50" are worse and getting hits with 37mm M54 HE shells is like buying lottery tickets... After latest patches even the BF can survive 2-3 hits; it wasn't that bad before!
CUJO_1970 Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 FW-190 of course, eagerly waiting for that Dora-9.
CrazyDuck Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) The one and only: IL-2. Fighters are for boys, CAS aircraft are for men. Edited January 8, 2019 by CrazyDuck 1

I always start my careers in the 110. It really is a pretty good plane for ground attack and works really well for intercepting bombers and IL2s.
40plus Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 Funnest to just fly for me is the plucky little I-16. Go-to when I want to blow stuff up and go fast is the clip-wing Spit is natural aluminum. But my all around favorite is the 109 in any variant. I just can't say no to those beautiful girls. ?
Soilworker Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 If I had to pick - for looks - it would probably be the Bf109 F4 or G2 (before it started breaking out in pimples and blisters, etc.) but I love the look of the Fw190 Antons too (they also have the coolest cockpits in VR), and the 2 Spitfires we have. To fly, I guess it'd be the same bunch except the Bf109s would be from F4 to K4 (Love 'em all!) -Captain Decisiveness
