My friend you are posting me useless statistics that don’t compare to game planes please play the game a bit. Try the Yak try the IL-2 (specially check its turn rate) or the Meteor with turn time same as a spitfire just play the game a bit then posting something that has nothing to do with the current planes in game…
And A6M2 here has 12 seconds turn good luck outturning it…
A6M2 has 12 sec instant turn but 13-14 sec sustained
Ki-43-I has 12 sec sustained turn and instant turn is like 9-10 sec
Ki-43-I
Loaded Weight: 2243kg
Wing Area: 22.00m2
Wing Loading: 101.95kg/m2
A6M2
Loaded Weight: 2421kg
Wing Area: 22.44m2
Wing Loading: 107.89kg/m2
The Ki-43-I is not in the game and it has no good bomb loadouts so Ki-43-II is the only good option since if its bad they can buff it if its good they can nerf it. How to explain you that posting statistics dont matter same is with the FW that is good on pepper and suddenly from BR V they moved it to BR III … so Ki-43-II is the best option for Japan BR II plane
Ki-43-II has same engine as A6M3 / A6M5
Ki-43-I is army equivalent of A6M2
Ki-43-II is army equivalent of A6M3
Ki-43-III is army equivalent of A6M6 (A6M5 with sakae 31 with M/W boost)
Dose it have 20 mm cannons ?
Ki-43-I Ko has 2x 7.7mm which is why despite its absurd performance it can be BR I
Ki-43-I hei, Ki-43-II have 2x 12.7mm cannons|
Whilst they dont have 20mm cannons like A6M’s, their climb rate is better, roll rate is better and their bombloads are better.
A6M2 has only 2x 60kg
A6M3 has only 2x 60kg
A6M5 has only 2x 60kg
Ki-43-I only has 2x 30kg
Ki-43-II has 2x 60kg, 2x 100kg or 2x 250kg
Ki-43-III has 2x 6kg, 2x 100kg or 2x 250kg
Well Yak has 20 mm so is BF …and they are BR I planes…
Japanese 12.7mm cannons are insane tho. Their HE filler is massive
Only if they had HE fillers in game since they dont … Play the Otsu Kai and check do you have HE …
if that gets sorted, that 2x 12.7mm firepower will be superior to 1x 20mm
It wont get sorted since the HE ammo is only for High BR planes … this is not warthunder… Tell me one Japanese planes with 12.7mm that has HE ?
japanese 12.7mm HE is their main ammo type in ww2
maybe fix that instead, still 2x 12.7mm is enough to shred anything at BR I - II
No absolutely no He ammo for BR I or BR II planes … Jesus. The only planes that have HE ammo in the game are high BR planes.
Ki-43-I Ko is 1941 plane
Ki-43-I Hei is 1942 plane
Ki-43-II is 1943 plane
Ki-43-III Ko is 1944 plane
1943 plane at BR I… hmmm…
Well Shall we remove Chaffe and Puma from BR II then ? Or Yakovlev Yak-7 or P-51 and I can go on… or put the Tiger I to BR III maybe or M5A1 Stuart can be moved to BR III by your logic
tell me which BR I plane will even stand a chance against Ki-43-II at BR I
Yak - 1 will destroy it without a problem and BF-109 will absolutely wreck you. Lag 3 can also kill you if he is not new and doesn’t waste its ammo ohh yeah and you have Mig 3… and let me not start with the Soviet and the Italian premium BR I planes they will absolutely give you no chance Re.2001 CN and I-16 type 27 are also BR I planes… good luck against that I-16 type 27…
wanna try those planes against my Ki-43 in war thunder?
