I never understood why so many people swear by the 109 in a dogfight. Handles like a heavy fighter and you have to play a mini game with your flaps whenever you get into a dogfight. Props to you for making it work.
@rainsilent6 ай бұрын
Because it has one very strong strength that can be used nearly any time to gain an advantage. Heck, in air RB it gives it the positional advantage from the start against most opposition. Against the average player if you know what you are doing it is as strong an advantage as just having a flat out better turn rate. Manipulating energy is the thinking man's way to win a dogfight and the 109 is one of the best at it. Combine that with the fact that it's low speed handling is probably the best in game (yes, the turn rate of late 109s is below average at best but at low speeds it does precisely what you want precisely how you want to do it. This is what I mean by handling.) and it is a very, very potent combination for low speed dogfights. There is a very distinct reason that most of these fights Smigol stays below 400kmh. He is exploiting the two greatest strengths of late 109s. Personally I'm not that big on 109s because they are too "one trick pony" for my tastes but that doesn't mean that I don't respect what they are capable of.
@immort47306 ай бұрын
@@rainsilent Yeah I agree for the most part, but the reality is any fighter can win from an energy advantage. And sure the 109 is very good at getting an early energy advantage, however this seems to come at the cost of literally everything else. The low speed handling is actually very good since you can actually prop hang for a bit with its strong engine. But the flaps take too long to deploy and I find myself fighting my own plane as much as I’m fighting my opponent. Its far from being a bad plane because boom and zoomers have much more agency in a match, but so many people recommend it as a dogfighting machine, when I think it’s actually one of the tougher planes to dogfight in.
@rainsilent6 ай бұрын
@@immort4730 That is why I call the late 109s a one trick pony and am not a big fan of them myself. They are very below average in nearly every other performance category. But what they are strong at they are very, very strong at and someone good enough to take advantage of their strengths can do quite a bit.
