Yes that plane is 2 engines that got fitted with some guns, a cockpit, and some wings to hold it all together. The only thing that can kind of annoy you while you gain altitude superiority are some heavy fighters like the b18 that are classifield as bombers.

What are you playing? If you don't point your nose at this thing like an idiot while being below it and stall out you can kill it. Yak-3, J2M2, Spitfires, 109s all can go up against it and kill it if flown by a better pilot than that of the XP-50. Thing compresses like crazy, has pretty bad low altitude performance, doesn't take damage well at all and is a giant target. It's good for exploiting dumb mistakes and because of that it's good for clubbing noobs, it can go 0.3 or 0.7 BR higher, but it's not as bad as a lot of other planes.

It's a slightly worse (debatable) J2M2 at 0.7 br lower. Yak-3 is pretty much as broken but is at 4.0. The only reason XP-50 is still 3.7 is because not many people play it, which is bound to change since it's in the warbond shop this season.
