This is some impressive stuff, never knew you could achieve so much with the AD-2. I'd like to request for a guide on how to fight 109s please. I appreciate that it will depend on what aircraft you're using, BR, etc so even just a general overview of their weaknesses and ways to exploit them would be great. There's loads of guides for how to fly 109s but hardly anything against them even though they're so common, so it would be really useful to a lot of people. Thanks!

[@jallahroyal]

From my experience 109s are bad at high speed turns aswell as top speed (at lower altitudes). So stay fast, dive if necessary, and bait them low

Loving all the content as only just been recommended to watch you by a friend! This might be a really obvious thing, but would you consider a How To video for your series on effective climbing? I seem to always end up lower or otherwise completely out of the match for too long to make a difference. This Skyraider vid was super impressive as well!

[@DEFYN]

In general you just want to keep a speed between 240-280 depending on the plane 280kph is always fine, just be careful with this mid combat as it leaves you slow and vulnerable. And that's it tbh

[@dsdy1205]

@@DEFYN Tagging on to say that you want to meet enemies with a high speed for more maneuverability. So if that means you end your climb below them and accelerate to about 500 kmh, you should.

[@mattmielke1389]

Your left wing!

[@Taffaff]

11:00, and if the roles were reversed how would you go about it? for example in a fast fighter/ energy fighter with poor high alt performance vs a nimble fighter with good climb rate and high alt performance, you're dependant on having the energy advantage but his climb neutralizes any speed and altitude you gain, and the longer you take the worse performance you have. So what do you do?

[@Taffaff]

mucho texto but i had a similar situation with the mk2 tempest vs a j6k a while back and it's been bugging me to this day lmao

[@DEFYN]

Just stay fast and he can't really touch you His altitude won't mean much considering you're faster going straight than he can dive I'd bait him down and then just go up after he committed once and he'll be out of energy. Pretty similar to how i flew the yak3u vs the zero if you've seen it

Can you fly the Ta-152 C3? I cant find many videos on it and im trying to understand what makes that plane have that high of a repair cost, apart from the usual argument that good players play it raising the statistics and therefore repair costs etc.

[@gian.4388]

Literally just because of what you wrote there I honestly don't know how the other 152's repair cost got dropped and the C-3's remained the same, the only thing it's decent at is in an interceptor role since it has 4 20mms and the mk103 (even tho the mk103 is extremely unreliable in my experience), but plenty of times at that BR you end up in a team with 3 or 4 Ju-288s while the enemy team is entirely made up of fighters The only good thing about it is the roll rate, turn rate and climb rate are actually painful (although you get the airspawn)

[@michaelvigil5321]

Just don't play it, not because the repair cost is too high (who honestly cares) but because it's worse than the H at the same BR.

DEFYN you have some wrong data about the AD2, the AD2 is very capable of outturning any german, no german can win you at turn fighting, if a Ta tries to do so he is dead, he might outrun or out climb but they can't win you dogfighting i have plenty experience doing that, same with J2Ms, maybe the J2M2 but their BR won't match against and AD2 unless he is in Squad with Higher BRs, so dont worry for them, you just got to learn how to turn with the AD2 because migth seem complicated once you get the turn you will crush almost any enemy plane, this beast can with any BF 109, any FW 190, Any J2M, Ki 84, N1K, J7W, Ki 83, J5N, Ta 152, Corsair, P51, Me 410, can beat some spitfires, seafire and seafury, tempest well i think this plane can beat any tempest, wyvern, this is an amazing plane that can only be outperformed in a 2 or more vs 1, it can to against G55 y G55s, Re 2005s this last ones are kinda tricky but it can do the job, i break a lot of G55s and 2005s, in a long dogfight with the you have more chance because when they lose their speed you will outperform them, only be aware of Zeros, at any version the A6Ms, A7Ms and the J6Ks those are the only planes that can be a pain in the ass, but still with some allies near you to help you can beat their asses, Spitfires are quite complicated to, not all of them but again, with some advantajes you can rip their wings, or dive into them and break them, the other Day i defeated a Griffon with the AD2, not sure if he was critted or he didn't try his best, but i got the kill. so don't be afraid of engaging fighters, i like to bait down the enemies and kill them at low, because you have the advantage, Germans wont perform well at low altitude and the AD2 does, and it can catch germans while they are doing their tricks, some times if get out numbered in a 2 vs 1 if you make them to be at you at the same time, you will reverse them and kill both of them, i have done this many times against duo of doras, or duo of 109s, or mixed, even with Tas involved, some times you can do it with 3 at the same time, but this is not a very good scenario and your chances are lower but still capable. you don't necessarily need to be above them, you bait go low they follow while they are diving turn, you will be above they will try to scape some of they by turning and that's their doom.
