La-5FN Great Plane Horrible Enemies

[@josephbubash1662]

As I've gotten better at air rb, I've found that a very good strategy for solo play is to fly a plane that has great firepower and either high top speed or an airspawn. I play these planes super aggressively (kind of a low skill strategy imo) and rack up tons of kills and a pretty high win rate simply because so many of the people you face have no idea what they're doing. Get 3 or more enemy fighters out of the match early, and it very often snowballs the game. On the opposite end of the coin however, you'll also encounter the tryhards who have thousands of hours playing Yaks, the XP-50, the Wyvern etc. These people will make games drag out forever because the moment they're at any form of a disadvantage, they will run away and camp the airfield.

That's a fair strategy. Although sadly a lot of American planes such as the early P-51Ds can really only run away. Especially if theyre out of altitude.

My us winrate isnt too bad if i remember at these props. And us props are propably overall some of the more powerful if you can work around the rudder compression, wich should be on all props basically. But like p39n p51c f8f p38l f6f p51h ect are really powerful and basically unkillable if played well. P51h is still just the best prop when it still has wep.

@KauppaKomissaari The American props are good. It's just that their playstyle seems to be outside of the style most players in war thunder implement. You need to be quite patient and disciplined with a lot of American planes. Which is not a skill most players have in excess.

slightly above mid, slightly below not mid

[@plainkiller0136]

So is it above mid or not?
