Gee, I didn't know there still were people who took IL2 Compare so seriously.

What's wrong with IL2 Compare?

Huh?

It's useful for establishing baseline comparisons between aircraft. Ridiculous statements that say that a bomber can turn as fast as a Spitfire can be easily proven otherwise quickly without having to load it up and show the turn times yourself. It's not a perfect measurement but when you're comparing types or laying out the groundwork for an online or offline mission it can be very useful.

True. And Also I flew Ju-88C the last time and I got three shot downs against Yak 9 which decided to turn with me in one flight. I thought I will be a dead man in this heavy fighter, but I really enjoyed the turn rate.

The J88c is not in 4.10 as far as I can recall? It is in one of the unmentionable mods and I think recent updates to that mod have nerfed it's uber prowess in the turn department.

Hello again,

When talking about the SM79 turning like a spitfire, i mean that it can keep its energy almost like a spitfire does when turning.

Infact i could yank back the stick fully, while useing max trim for turning.
The speed never dropped below 230 km/h, while i was on max fuel with 2x 500kg bombs.
It just wont stall.
I cannot do that with a HE111, Bf110, B25 or some other bomber.

The He-111, Bf-110, and B-25 don't have automatic slats. These greatly enhance lift at low speeds or high angles of attack.
