Depends on where it hits really.  Fuel tank would kill it probably.

Also be wary of Mustang, eh takes 30mm to the chest and doesn't afraid of anything

Murrican chests. Made out of freedom steel. Can resist even MK108.

Went back to low tier Americans, went into Arcade with the F2A-3. Come out with 9 kills, 0 deaths.

Am I a good pilot or is the Buffalo amazing now?

The Buffalo has never been a bad plane. It's just that it's usually one of the earliest planes most people pilot, so they don't know how to handle it. It's an all-metal energy fighter with quad .50s in a level where most planes have MMGs. It eats everything it faces for breakfast.

So, I have unlocked the He111 H16.

First time I played it, I dove a bit (in RB) and the plane BROKE.

To be honest I was quite over the speed limit, but no. 600 km/h and my plane breaks ? So you mean i have shitty armament, I can't climb due to ridiculously low climbspeed and I can't dive either ?

You can always die, never understood the logic behind the HE111 balance, all of its varians should be rank 0, 1 at most. Its probably the worst bomber of the game.

Exactly...I always thought it was rather OP for its placement

I kept flying Buffalos up until I got the P-40. They're quite nimble and handle better than the vast majority of the biplanes they're matched up against.

Plus, the P-36 is a bad joke. It's a brick with wings, only less manueverable than that.

The P-36 still manages to get kills. I've seen quite a few of my teammates get eaten by the bastards despite all rhyme or reason.

It's got decent armament, and it can dive like a brick. Unfortunately, it turns and pulls up like a brick too.

RB duels are nice. Better than RB usual at least.

So, I have acquired the Mig-3-15 BK.

2 russian miniguns and 3 50cal's should be pretty good, especially with 3 mg's in the nose.

I also hear it is a BnZ/energy fighting plane like the bf109, though it turns decently I think.

The T-60 is amazing. Cant do shit for damage most of the time, but thanks to the hits you can always seem to get you get arty and assists all the time. Time to see what its "APCR" is like, with a whole 26mm of penning power...

So are the 'murricans here? There seems to have been a patch today but I don't have any internet to download it so I can't really check.

Are they the gloriously min-maxing hulldown bastards that I expect them to be?
