Plane selection

[jollyjack]

Setting up a mission. Of course one has it's fav planes. For my old brain it's hard to remember those but for a few.

 

BUT has any one made a comparison list, f.i. excel sheet, with properties IL2 planes are best at?

Like 3  x + for strafing, 4 x+ bombing,  hitting targets with a rocket, ease of pulling up of a dive, turning  etc?

F.i that Uv2s is destructively great with rockets, but when aiming for a certain cow you'll probably only hit one in the next field if any.
