hoi4 Q&A: How much better is a heavy fighter than a small fighter in a 1 to 1 dogfight ?

A comparison of a small fighter vs a heavy fighter in a 1 vs 1 dogfight with perfect detection and efficiency.

I started using heavy fighers after watching your videos, I like them very much

[@mohamedjear8917]

So overall, heavy fighters are better both on dps and range.

Would heavy fighters be better in a more realistic scenario because most of the time you probably aren’t going to have perfect detection?

Heavy machine guns are not available in 1936. My research priorities are: computers, industry, rifles, artillery, tanks, maintenance and engineer support companies - only after all these I start to research air tech, which in some cases happens as late as ~1941.🤪
