167 points down on damage given, from 256 to 89, seems a bit extreme, particularly in light of the accuracy downgrade. Perhaps you could have balanced it a little differently by spreading it out some.
Speed:475
Maneuverability: 240
Firepower: 225
or some such.
Sad day.

Yeah, I am quite disappointed by this. Was a fun plane to fly - now it's kind of a pig in the sky, with a tickler rather than a killer...

And to think that I would have gotten that over the P-39Q Airacobra and the Me 210

It looks like 0.4 sec longer for a 360 degree turn. Firepower is the same in relative terms. The firepower number is no longe a weapon damage total so every plane had their number drop.
If you are a goob who puts rockets (or bombs when possible) on your light fighters that will further degrade performance, moreso than pre 5.1, with no appreciable increase to battle effectiveness.

With the p40m105 and me210, you are comparing apples to oranges. Regarding the p39, you need good aim to make use of the fast overheating canon.

I didn't know you could lower the stall speed of an airframe by adding weight. I'd love to see the math behind that.

Only 2 things I miss on my P-40-M105 right now...is the longer engine durability when boosting, and the accuracy nerfing.
