Mk1a with Rotol constant speed prop, 320mph@10,000ft.Rate of climb Mk1a 1min 48s to 5000
MkIIa with 150 more hp and same prop 326mph@10,000ft Rate of climb MkIIa 1m 42s to 5000.
So what we need is constant speed props on the Mk1's and the Luftwaffe boys will be happy!

But would that make the Spit1 achieve its correct speed?.. I thought it was under powered and not just issues with prop?..
Also you do have a Medium between the 2 mate..Hurri rotol, they both have their strengths and weaknesses just like the 109 does but at least the Hurri and 109 are modeled better ingame
