303_Vins Posted May 5, 2023 Posted May 5, 2023 Historically: 1) F-86 top speed from 0 ft to 30 000 ft was superior to MiG-15 bis ( in DCS MiG-15 top speed is slightly higher. It is wrong. Not historical ) 2) F-86 acceleration in level flight was almost same as MiG-15 Bis ( in DCS MiG-15 accelerate faster than F-86. It is wrong. Not historical ) 3) F-86 acceleration in dive was significantly better than MiG-15 bis ( in DCS MiG-15 accelerate faster in dive. It is completely wrong. MiG-15 has much worse CX, especially its wings ) 4) F-86 can fly supersonic in dive and still manouver. MiG-15 is not able to do that. In dive F-86 should outrun and outmanover easily the MiG. ( in DCS it is problematic ). 5) Only advantages of MiG-15 bis historricaly is better acceleration in climb. Better climb rate, Higher maximum ceiling. ( DCS well modeled ) 6) Sabre advantage historically is better acceleration in dive, top speed at any altitude, better turn rate at hi speed, able to run supersonic while dive and outrun quickly MiG-15. ( in DCS it is slightly problematic ) Coclusions: F-86 in DCS has wrong CX. To small top speed at level flight and accelerate while dive very much to slowly. 5
