Forum Discussion
@ElliotLH sorry if i come across agressive, but those responses are dismissive. Please explain how G6 is faster, turns better, fly higher is balanced?
The planes are designed to have equivalent roles to planes on the other team. Bf-109s are supposed to be roughly equal to Spitfires as interceptors, Stukas to Mosquitos as fighter-bombers, and Ju-88s to Blenheims as tactical bombers.
Why is the Mosquito slower than the Bf-109 despite the opposite being true in reality? Because Dice wanted extremely long air-vs-air engagements and had to give interceptors a speed boost to compensate. In turn, Bf-109s also have less damage reduction.
It's all about game balance. Because Dice designed the Mosquito to have effective air-to-ground capabilities, it would have rendered interceptors redundant if it was equally fast, maneuverable, and overall effective in air-to-air.
