Axis BR3 fighter Plane - suggest and reason please

The FW A4 isn’t that bad even without bomb you still have 4x20mm and 2 mg. Can be used for light tank and apc and it’s a okay fighter

Are the BF110 planes no option for you?
They are great and fun to play (the 37mm auto cannon paired with 30mm guns are pure joy in some cases!)

Not a fighter plane my dude.

Too slow, or feels too slow to me…

Yes…but, it’s a heavy fighter.

I guess there is no other option for BR3. He should try them out.

As long as they take the attacker slot there is little reason to bring those up in a discussion about the fighters that are useable in BR 3.

Faster than the Dauntless I can tell you that much. Lol. Try making that switch, I swear it’s incredible
As for how fast it really is, I don’t know man seems fine to me

I’ll go one better than Dauntless, AP1 :wink:

Based on comments so far I’ll stick with F2, would prefer A4 as I love that plane but no bombs is a big disadvantage imho

There are none.

That’s why I’m mad when the game keeps powercreeping with weird crap when BR3 aviation for half the nations is kinda cringe.

And now that the aircraft cannons seem severely nerfed on their AP almost none of the “BR3” axis fighters are good for much of anything

Well lets hope the Devs are reading this and either tweak existing or give us new toys!

@James_Grove Hello, maybe you could read this and pass feedback on to Devs please mate? We need better BR3 choice

The 109 trop is underrated and honestly the best fighter axis has in br 3. If you use this, you will win dogfights…

But… the problem is…

It got no bombs whatsoever. So it’s only usable as a pure fighter when the enemy team spam planes a little too much.

I still use it though. With the 110 as attacker. There’s no real good middle ground for br3.

If you’re looking for something for pure air to air and are a decent pilot the 190s. You can outturn things for like one turn before you fall out of the air.

The G-6 should be BR3 and the F-4 really needs bombs just like the lower tier 190s. But since this isn’t so, F-1 is definitely my pick. The F-2 isn’t bad either but the 15mm is unbelievably underpowered. For that reason I’d even choose the E-7/U2 over the F-2. And I’m personally not a fan of the IAR but it’s probably the most popular solely because it carries a 250kg. I see this plane all the time even in high tier.

Could Add:

  • 109 F4 (not trop) with 250 bomb (or working incindiary bomb would cool)

  • Fw190 (A4, A5, F8) could all be BR 3…with many payload options. Current 190 A series are piss poor in loadout choices, BR rating and performance, pretty irrelevant in Enlisted

OR actually give some Italian love

  • There are lots of versions of Fiats G.55, Re 2000, 2001, 2002 early, 2005 (all with multiple bomb options)

They could down grade the G.55 currently ingame to BR 3 by changing its bombs to 50KG bombs and then add some of the more powerful versions in BR 4-5.

Italy love would be my prefered.

Decided to create 3 BR presets, one with F1, Emil, FW, putting them through tests on matches… as for result, F1 with 20 mm is best so far, better than Emil, FW has no bombs and can’t really destroy tanks with mgs alone.

The G6 needs to move down to BR 3

Gah gone back to my F2 it was a hard decision, but 15mm seems to be better than before… I love the camo on premium too!

Yeah that F1 doesn’t leave much room for error. Did the 15mm get a buff? Last time I used it felt like I was only scratching paint. I’ll give it another go.

I was going to make a new post but why if we have this already

Japan is getting a BR3 fighter with a bomb:

Soviets have LA-5 FN

Americans have P-51

I think it would make sense if Bf 109 F-4 stopped being “trop” (it’s super weird top see “Tropical” versions of planes fly across Bulge/Rzhev)

And it could become this Bf 109 F-4/B

(I am no War Thunder/Planes PhD but it looks like IRL the Bf 109 F-4 had this capability)
