Gotha’s bad AI climb rate (and other AI Planes too?)

[JG4_Moltke1871]

Hi there,

To climb with a Gotha Bomber on 3000 meters, load 7x50kg bombs 350 Liters fuel, I need about a half hour. That’s about what the plane‘s description tells (except my lower fuel load)

Climb speed, full fuel load, 7 x 50kg (350 kg) bombs:
1000 m - 7 min. 35 sec.
2000 m - 16 min. 20 sec.
3000 m - 27 min. 51 sec.
4000 m - 47 min. 35 sec.

 

But my AI squad climb rate is just the half, to reach my altitude in 3000 meters they need about 1 hour. That is an incredible waste of lifetime.

Is there any chance to improve the AI for a better climb rate?

 

By the way: Please check the Gotha’s fuel consumption, it seems much to low.

This seems a fuel gauge bug, I made a report

Was also wondering about this climb rate, and found with a lot of other planes that too ... but maybe a fact of real life?

Time scale can use a 16x turbo boost?
