Discussion about Yak-9, Yak-9T and Hurricane Collector Planes Announcement

[Brano]

 Yak-9UT was tried with NS-37 cannon and 2xB-20 cannon, but in serial production it was armed with NS-23 instead of NS-37. 282 produced from February till May 1945.

 Yak-9U U=улучшенныи=improved, had  new designed VK-107A engine with take-off power of 1650hp at 3200rpm. From april 1944 till August 1945, 3921 were built. But engine was not matured enough (and it never fully matured due to inherent design flaws), problems with overheating, oil leakage and vibrations during forsazh or very low rpm,were remedied (not completly) only from December 1944 production on.When working properly, it could reach 575km/h at ground level and 672km/h at 5km. Practicaly the same as La-7.

9U was build with both 105 and 107 wasn't it? 3921 were built of 107 version or all versions?

 

I always thought the 107 engine was fairly uncommon.

575kmh at SL for a La-7 is possible only with the Forsazh off and some cowls drag, otherwise it would be in the 605-615kmh range with the boost on.

 

On the other hand at 5km a La-7 could only make 650kmh, as the Yak-9U was the fastest altitude fighter of the VVS in the 4-6km range

As far as I know the 9U with the 105 engine was just a single built prototype, development then continued and the 107 engine was incorporated and in that configuration the plane started mass production.

I am slightly disappointed to be honest. 3rd or 4th premium plane for the allies in the row. Also new ones are again fighters. While bunch of people were hyped for something like fw189, I just hope they save axis planes for future expansion and this is a reason for no axis planes in long time.

if ppl wonted another usless airplane like u2 or ju52 they should buy 10-20 of them each insted just 1. Fighter airplanes are more popular, so why waist time on airplanes that wont sell or dont have any purpes in game, im glad they didnt go for c-47 insted one of fighters. If ppl ask for some obscure airplanes they need to understand they then need to buy more then just 1 copy of it to make it worth wile to make...

U2 isn't useless. It's a dream! Perfect for when you want to run some leisurely transport missions on taw when your team mates aren't about, or just want to do some sightseeing. 

 

I own the ju 52 but haven't had the chance to use it much online due to the usual team stacking issues, but hopefully that will change soon.

U2 useless?

JU52 useless???

 

Common, mate, are you serious? There are plenty useful tasks one could do with those two amazing and beautiful aircraft, especially in MP on good, I mean good organized

servers like f.ex. TAW, KOTA, Finish, ComBox and yes perhaps WOL too. It all depends on the mission design and setup of the battles. If those two planes would get more

recognition on the stats, then I think more pilots would choose them to achieve some important and challenging tasks.

 

InWAR was such a great MP server run by some Russian chaps - well organized and transport task were very important and also rewarded accordingly. And btw. it was

worse to loose a transport plane without finishing the transport task than loosing a fighter plane on that server.

 

Not all pilots want to be fighter pilots for the sake of collecting medals and air kills. Just my opinion, but I'm very sure I'm not the only one here, mate.

Everyone here knows you are butthurt about anything that is not a fighter and have some out of nowhere information you like to repeat over and over again. Next time post sale info of Po2 and Ju52 if you are going to talk about stuff that sells or not. Maybe you spend your time on WoL only so these planes have no much to do. But if you stop being so close minded you will notice that this game has also SP where every plane has a purpose.

Problem is, he thinks he is the only one out there and if he like or not something, that must be the view of everyone here. It's not first time when he calls these planes usless, says they don't sell and calls it all waste of time because he could get more fighters instead.

You take 3 Yaks the in morning, then you take 3 Yaks at night.

You take 3 Yaks before you take 3 Yaks, and then you feel alright...

I’d just like to see a Yak 3 for a collector plane ?

Useless planes? This is bullshit. There are no "useless" or "crap" planes. This is a rhetoric of some dumb fortnite kid, not a flight simmer.

if its that usefule more ppl would buy it and devs would make more airplanes like that, but they are making fighter airplanes that i like so my opinion is you guys should buy 10-20 more of ju52 or u2 each if you wont to see more useless airplanes being made, Untill then im sure well see more fighter airplanes and b-25 probably as only bomber. I sure dont see any reason to buy in ju52 u2 or airplanes like that, and by colector airplanes selection i think you guys are in minority as if thouse airplanes sell well then we would get more of that type.

I bet they spare that Yak-3 and the La-7 for a 44/45 eastfront module. Propably vistula-oder operation or something else which fit the endwar timeframe in the east.
