Would be nice if gaijin stopped adding boring premiums that take zero skill while offering at least two guaranteed kills.

Honestly the a6 and a10 should both be 11.0. People fly in, get 2-3 free kills because half the people they face don’t have flares and die because the plane has shit flight performance. Planes like the F4C are unplayable. Uptier? R60Ms, aim9H/L, magic 2, you’re fucked. Downtier? R60Ms and aim9Ls, you’re fucked

A6E TRAM can turn hard under 300mph with flaps down. It'll surprise people for sure.

If he's chasing you down all the way you stay notched all the way until the merge, then you use your HMD and better flight performance and spank them in the dogfight. Won't work in RB though, because if you start turning with one guy a third guy will kill you every time. Works great in Sim though.

What's even more interesting is that usually the plane counts as destroyed, while you can still fly it without half a wing. I've had my wing torn off, still delivered payload to the base and returned to repair and rearm - all while someone on the enemy team got credit for shooting me down. It's a really weird plane.
