Fw 190 D-13 vs P63 Dogfight | War Thunder Sim VR 🛩️

[@jedbedrock2944]

Literally all he had to do was lower combat flaps, slam it into WEP, and out rate you. But no no, he just had to reverse for no reason and die. I see players do this a lot, and i can only assume its because they don't know how to fight yet. They heard something about reversing in a movie or YT video and figure its gotta be right.

Thanks for your comment 🫡 I'm not sure if he could outrated me, as the P63 has 23s turn time, vs my 21.6s Fw 190. I was doing takeoff Flaps, so I was probably doing close to 20s. I'm not sure P63's turn time with full flaps tho. Reversing is an interesting move, but, I rarely see any successful reversal in sim battles lol

@BrigadierFoxYT usually reversals are only good if you have the energy to climb over their nose when you do it. Thus bleeding them of even more speed when they pull their nose up. I also usually never use anything past combat flaps(if you have them) unless im trying to prop hang. It creates too much drag. If he had kept his rate with combat flaps, he probably would have bled you dry and then the rate is his. Ive done it to many 190s in something like a Corsair. With that said, i dont do sim. I do realistic in VR on HOTAS.

why did he reverse ??

[@BrigadierFoxYT]

He wasn't at the right distance to reverse. However, he almost caught me off guard, luckily I managed to place the shot quickly!
