Krupi Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 7 hours ago, WinterH said: It may not be particularly surprising to be honest. They were used to being more maneuverable and better climbing aircraft in most of the possible match-ups before, but at least until mid war most of their opponents could outrun and/or out-accelerate them. Then suddenly, it was the exact opposite against the Zero: Spitfire had the speed advantage, but Zero climbed and turned better, so Spitfire pilots had to fight in the exact opposite way of how they did thus far. I don’t recall the Zero being better at climbing, it’s pretty average as far as I recall Windows 10 Pro | ASUS RANGER VIII | i5 6600K @ 4.6GHz| MSI RTX 2060 SUPER | 32GB RAM | Corsair H100i | Corsair Carbide 540 | HP Reverb G2 | MFG crosswind Pedals | Custom Spitfire Cockpit Project IX Cockpit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps it was so only by the standards of fighters in Pacific Front early on though? If so that'd mean it'd probably still be behind the Spitfire in that regard I guess.
