I fly the 110 from time to time, but only for fun. My Yak-3 can usually tear into it fairly easy.
It was designed as a heavy fighter- but wasn't very good compared to other lighter fighters.... it was outclassed simply because nobody else flew heavy fighters... It would have been more than a match for the Mosquito though... later it was used as a high altitude fighter (anti bomber roll) which it was very well suited for... other models carried ground attack ordnance and was gor for it too.
