So if I get this right, you don’t need to research the JPz to get the RkJPz 2?

i quit playing 2 years ago
every couple of months i come back here to check if it's still a pay2win grindfest
so is it?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mikoyan-Gurevich_I-250
When?

Nothing infuriates me more than seeing that fucking plane. I hate everything about it and everyone who flies it should fucking kill themselves.

Its overpowered as shit, simple as that. If that isn't enough:

>never even existed
>its cannons never even existed either
>looks fucking stupid
>meme plane
>weeaboos actually want the jet version that also never existed added

It should either be 9.0 where it belongs or be removed.

It's a play-soviets-to-win grindfest

what's this thing?

The J7W did exist though. It made several 45-minute flights, all of which were low intensity and poorly recorded. So unlike the XP-55 we don't know its actual flight performance (which would be similar to the XP-55).

>>tank level durability
haha are you high nigga

>can do pugachev's cobra cobra
>can do fucking kulbit loops
I guess the definition of those has really stopped mattering then?

>doing good
>SUDDENLY

...

>I'm intentionally retarded to defend my ufo
shut the FUCK up poopydude

Poopydude openly ADMITS it can outrun Hunter F1s

That wasn't a cobra or a kulbit. That was the plane spazzing out.

...

>The "Kulbit" (also known as the "Frolov chakra") is an aerial maneuver developed by Russian pilots in which the aircraft performs an extremely tight loop, often not much wider than the length of the aircraft itself.

HHHHHHHMMMMMMMM

The plane is supposed to do a loop, not go nose up halfway and spin about like a disco ball.

>go nose up halfway and spin about like a disco ball.

Literally never happens in the video, kys weeb.

whoa, so this is the true power of weebs

What fucking video are you watching? Please give the link.

>get teamed with t*rks

Kickass supermaneuverability bro

>call japanese plane trash

Hmmm

fuck you weeb go doki doki your imouto senpai somewhere else kawaii desu

anyone with current dev server tech tree screens?

>canards

really makes me think

really...

makes me think

whoa, it's almost like you're false flagging or something to downplay how bullshit it is

Look in previous thread, there were several screenshots and even videos with actual footage of some of the planes

I'm sorry I don't think your Japanese XP-55 is all that impressive.

please tell me how many t-44-100s were made

Canards plus 90 degree thrust vectoring

don't have the screenshots, but a fairly large chunk of the faguette airforce is just american planes, one of which is the AD-4NA (), superior in every way to the AD-2 on the US main tree, so of course the US most likely won't be getting it any time soon

Funny, because you're obviously the one invested in not seeing it fixed.

>he doesn't know

can't we have just a single thread without poopydude or shindenposting

Keen to thaw Anglo-Soviet relations, British Prime Minister Clement Attlee invited Soviet scientists and engineers to the Rolls-Royce jet facility to learn how the superior British engines were made. Attlee further offered to license production to the USSR—after exacting a solemn promise that the engines would be utilized only for non-military purposes. The offer stunned the Americans, who protested loudly. And the Soviets? Russian aviation historian and Ukrainian native Ilya Grinberg says, “Stalin himself couldn’t believe it. He said, ‘Who in their right mind would sell anything like this to us?’ ” Grinberg, a professor of technology at the State University of New York at Buffalo, points out that the presence in the delegation of Artem Mikoyan himself—the “Mi” in MiG—should have been a tip-off to what in fact ensued: The Rolls-Royce samples shipped to the USSR in 1946 were promptly installed into MiG-15 prototypes and successfully flight-tested. By the time the fighter was ready for mass production, the Soviets had reverse-engineered the Nene; their copy was designated the Klimov RD-45. When the British objected to the violation of their licensing agreement, says Grinberg, “the Russians just told them ‘Look, we incorporated a few changes. Now it qualifies as our own original design.’ ”
Post yfw Britain went full retard

Is the Russian bias real?

no, you're probably just better at flying them

>turn fight
>with a fucking german fighter

t. slavshit

So yeah, them weeb premiums 50% off now. Which ones are good to have?
And I mean planes. Disdain for muckracing dirt sniffing plebs and their glorified tow trucks, etc.

Anyone?

BnZ is useless in AB

>playing arcade
>being bad at playing arcade as well

ki 100 is very good, a7m1 is insanely good
dunno about j2ms

if you're a shitter
fishing bellow you for turnbabies is how you hoard kills in AB

Uh, no it isn’t if anything it’s better in AB because every fighter just turnfights at 1000m and has no energy. That and you can pull 20g turns at twice your rip speed and not gibb yourself

I'm good at AB but the german aircrafts are pure shit

>all these arsemad faggots whingeing about the influx of new Ru251 players
>not just shooting it first with anything over .50 cal
How garbage can you be?

you're pure shit, fw 190s are godly for diving on unaware shitters and blasting them out of the sky

wow, you're fucking stupid.

main difference between AB and RB is that AB is far more BnZ friendly. Not just no rip speed but also, even more importantly, luxury of picking who you want to fight with.

That and that you always will have the altitude advantage and not having to worry about spacechimps in spitfires

thank god for players like you. Your inability to grasp air combat beyond turnfighting keeps divers and energy fighters undertiered, which in turns allows, even someone as bad at planes as me, to print SL with them

ayy

enjoy your max uptier and tard mates

>start battle
>get kicked out because bad connection tovarish)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

That's every match anyway.

Which is better, Hornet or Ki-83?

It's funny because with a premium account and a stack of premium planes you can print money in any game mode no matter how bad you are.

Appeasement had worked for a while before the war, they were hoping it might keep working after.
