It rather hard to fight against, especially with my usual plane in Il2 1946 which is a late model Bf109G or K, because while these can match the La7 in speed they cannot turn with it, which means I have a very hard time in a sustained fight. That means I have to rely on using BnZ tactics only, and on making ambush kills and then getting out of the area fast.
The G has more firepower but is a less stable shooting platform. The K has less firepower but is more stable......also cant turn with the G-6. I wish the F-4 could punch out of a wet paper bag, I LOVE how it flies. Any of them have a hard time dealing with the LA-7.
