Soviet, we should play sometime, if you frequent on PSN. PSN ID is Zeroptimus. We can swap favorite planes and our favorite planes' lead!

i like the FW-190 series and the ta-152, but this game does them a terrible injustice, on account of how badly they fly.

my other favorite is the DORIER 335 in my sig

I like to use a different plane every match but when I want to ensure a victory or know that the going will get tough I mount on a Spitfire mk IX, I simply find its guns and platform perfect. Another way of saying this is that when going against a plane I fear and have more respect towards the Spitfire.

I use the Hurricane when I want a competitive match against ME 109's.

The La5 and La7 are simply too perfect for my taste ( if only they overheated like in the PC), maybe when they add redouts and blackouts they will be fun to fly.

However, lately I have fallen in love with the FW 190D-9 and I seem to handle those Messerschmitts pretty well. (This is in Simulation where my enemy has no target on me)

Soviet if you have PS3 please add me too I always enjoy true dogfights

I love the IL-2M. Variety of loadouts (not that I have them all yet) and it's just a lot of fun to use in both Strike and CTA. It's like a WW2 A-10. It's easy to love a straight up fighter, I like a plane with more meat on it's bones.

I don't know why, but I even love the blindspots with the armor to the sides of the cockpit. It's tough as nails, versatile and has a rear gunner. What's not to love?

(Well, actually unlocking the bigger load outs is what I don't love.)

Hurricaaaaaaaane

Ever since that first mission you use the Hurricane to bomb the ships, I just fell completely in love. Not to mention the tracers are AMAZING in helping for deflection shooting.

While I love the IL-2M, and it's damn near unkillable-ness, the little IL-10 is more of my style. Same armor, smaller target for Rocketeers. And I prefer the matte olive green paint job to the camouflage. I know, taking one plane over another because its paint job is stupid, but it worked for me. I've gotten just about all of my amazingly bs kills in the IL-10, and I know what it's going to do before it does it. It feels really nice, being in tune with your plane!

well my fav plane has got to be the bf109 if im honest allways has been since i was a little kid ....but...

since ive been trying out the russian plane i found that the la-7 is the perfect plane for my flying style im a little heavy handed and she is so forgiving and she can turn with the best of em
ive been getting more kills per match with the la-7 than i ever have with the bf109 series
