Both really fun. The Jug has had more time to be refined, but IMO you can't beat carrier landings. I also like the cockpit layout of the Corsair, which is odd because it looks like a mess. Had no problem getting the F4U up to 40,000ft in my second flight.

How do they compare?

 

Right at this moment the P-47 is better:

 

Pros of the P47:

More immersive engine sound.

More comprehensive control bindings.

And most important for me, there are a couple of truly excellent Campaigns available at very reasonable cost.

Its only Con would be no carrier operations.

 

The F4U has great Pro: it has a WW2 map available for free, while for the P-47 they are payware. Edit: just realized that this is irrelevant, as the P-47 can also employ this map 🫢

 

As the F4U matures during its EA period, this balance will change.

I’ve been holding off on the Corsair until I’m sure it’s worth it. It is fun landing the p-47 on the Essex though. Seems to me the Corsair is just a lighter  carrier capable version of the jug. (I know there’s more to it but that’s the initial impression from watching all the videos out there)

You feel the weight of the Jug, the Hog feels light even with a full load out. I feel the engine sound of the Jug, not so much in the Hog. Once they refine the Control settings (fuel selector, weapons switches... etc..) and make them more like the other warbirds, it will greatly reduce the usage of the mouse. 

The WWII map is beautiful, but a resource hog.... I turn off the mirrors and that helps a lot. It is definitely the Hose Nose Widow Maker, or Ensign Eliminator, when it comes to CQ on the boat. I can't tell how annoying the Island and Gun mounts are when they get in the way of a great approach...... the cat walk rails are a life saver when you're hanging from them like a dingleberry noob....

But I really like it....:thumbup:

Corsair needs some work. As others have pointed out it’s an unfair comparison, the Jug’s not EA.

So good to have another decent prop and carrier capable’s always gonna be giggles.
