Player Opinion

Pros and Cons

Pros:

• Lots of health
• 20mm cannons are decent once obtained

Cons:

• lower speed
• Very undergunned

Performance

This is the first British heavy fighter. It is A big change from the Skua and should be noted. It has lots of health and a low stall speed as well. However, it's guns are a bit of a letdown. It has .303 MG's for stock, which is quite light in comparison to other aircraft of the same tier. You can upgrade them to 20mm later which really helps with damage and range. It's bomb load is decent as well. Overall it's a decent plane having some flaws but also having some upsides. Head ons against fighters and multi roles is a good idea, however should be avoided against attack and heavy fighters.

Early Research

• First rear gun is the least xp
• 20mm cannons are a must
