Gentlemen, the devil is in the details. The thing that p38f owners make mistakes is to train the plane to be much faster, this choice makes your plane like paper. I tried this, it is an effective method (for boom & zoom) but I changed it later and found a more efficient method. I thought that this plane is already fast, so my current strategy is to protect the engine, gain maneuverability, increase the accuracy of shooting and extend the shooting range. In addition, it is necessary to choose the pilot experiences to compensate for the shortcomings. examine the details below and try to understand the correlation between them. All the parts I have installed are in maximum calibration and the reassembly settings are intended to eliminating weaknesses. This is what wargaming wants us to do, although it has a lot to criticize (this is another toppic issue).

With this configuration, I have multiple tactics against every enemy that approaches me, no matter what country, class or level (you can learn it on my twitch channel when i stream). I have achieved 85% win rate using p38 in this way for 2 months. also your resolution and fps are important, 25-30fps and low resolution enemies have no chance.. I have to go now, but if you are interested then I can explain later in more detail.
