IX air tactics...IX noob

U-84 · 01-22-09, 10:50 PM

hey all, as stated on the title, was curious what would be the most effective way to deal with enemy planes. This is my first time using a IX on career, and the dive time compared to the VIIC is enourmous (obviously) by the time I am able to spot or pickup any enemy aircraft it seems already too late too dive, so i order the guns manned and zig zag. Is this effective? I've suffered no damage so far and downed a Hawker Hurricane, but my luck cannot hold out forever espcially since it's somewhat early war (42). For those IX users and addicts here, what do u do? any certain evasive manuever that I'm probably not aware of? :hmm:
