Yeah it wasn't too bad not long ago. With the Spit cannons there is no chance. Luckily I havent had much trouble with the Mustangs. Against AI, yes. They use a different flight model and well...cheat. Yes I really need too. I've been playing DCS single player ground pounding for 3 years and have only put in 20% of my time into cold war A2A. I am slightly worried that WWII online is going to be mostly populated on the new map with assets which I don't have. Yes, getting altitude on him while turning definitely helps. Trying to climb straight on was working. If I stay under him he just loops over and behind me. Thanks guys. Ok it seems mostly to be the FM. I should only expect a fair fight in multiplayer.

I have been trying to compete against the AI Spit with CW (I only have the difficulty on Good). We can mere head on and the Spit has time to turn around and catch up while I continue on in a straight climb. I can't outturn, out-climb, or outshoot it. I could be a mile away retreating and the spit catches up in a minute. Im also getting sniped from .5 miles away. Is it a futile effort?
