I think FW189 should be assigned to the fighter team

It’s too stupid to replace JU87 with this thing, it’s not bad to replace HS123

errrr…

exept this aircraft it’s a bomber ( light bomber to be more precise ) and not a fighter?

@ErikaKalkbrenner
The Focke-Wulf Fw 189 (“Eagle Owl”) is a German twin-engine, twin-boom, three-seat tactical reconnaissance and army cooperation aircraft. It first flew in 1938 (Fw 189 V1), entered service in 1940 and was produced until mid-1944.

i mean, also wt consider that as a light bomber.

which, makes somewhat sense.

it’s not " agile " like the hs or bf109.

Its a recon plane with ligth cas wapon is not a junk the plane are useless in the game because is not made for figth directly the enemy

However it is very flexible.HS123 is a bomber in reality, but is classified as a fighter in the game, so FW189 can also be counted as a fighter

if you study the matter more closely, you will find out that this plane easily fought fighters. Russian pilots were advised not to engage in open combat with him. But in this game he was just junk.

that’s…

very arguable.

you see, perhaps should be in a separate category. like normandy. where you have attackers bombers, bombers, and fighters.

because, again, the FW it’s not very good as a fighter. that’s why it’s under bombers.

like, everything can out turn it. perhaps it’s very good for it’s speed. but not for dog fight. which are what fighters are mainly supposed to do.

I also think it is very good for air combat, but there is a small problem, I can’t find sights

IL-2 caught up with me on the climb.

Then it can only be stored in the warehouse, I don’t want to replace JU87 with it

I suspect the dev hate germany but is only a suspect

you are not forced to use it? :woman_shrugging:

they are not poiting at you a gun and order you to use it.

the Fw 180 its more of a sidegrade. good for people that hasn’t touched moscow. ( since it comes fully upgraded ). and it’s more of a " collector " aircraft.

this aircraft has history over war thunder as well. since it has been brought by the " operation summer " event that was originally made on war thunder.

and after all, it’s free.

I am sure about that

nah, they had to hate it.

no one likes being called a nazi just because in your game, germany was winning most of the time.

Hmm. A neighbor’s dog can shit under your door for free. But in my opinion it will not be a gift.
The plane does not have its real characteristics in this game. And this is wrong.

Maybe it does not fly very fast, but it has very good controllability.And it’s not like a fighter, when using the keyboard control, automatic level flight

even if it is free is a reward for an mmo gamer this kind of rewards must be worth the time spent to get it i am sure that the ppk-42 which in reality is a crap weapon in the game will instead be better than all the others only because it is a Russian weapon
