If the Russians figured the 190 was a low-speed turner, I think they kind of had it wrong. Its wing loading is way too high.
In training I've got the 190d9 to work better than 109k4 now, against b17's. it climbs more efficiently, and its quick roll allows you to dive on the targets in a curved slashing motion that is nearly impossible to hit. Since it climbs better, it usually has better closing speed at the pass, combined with the quick roll and jink ability the b17 gunners don't even start firing until you've already passed them, then they have about 1 to 2 seconds to try to pick the right direction and lead before you're out of range. Good armament too, plenty of it, and high rate of fire.
I wonder if the d9 could bnz as well as a k4 in online free-for-alls.
