[AE] AE战机比武——Ki83远战VS野马P51D

firephoenix

本次游戏盟军仍然使用后期主力远程战斗机野马P51D，蝗军出场的则为赵天蝗钟情并大力预研的Ki83远战。4 N  j# B4 P: Y6 P

9 G$ D! O' {" O$ f0 d5 k# [( a3 Y      测试使用1108R9，在珊瑚海海战剧本基础上修改，日军为图拉吉，盟军为一格外的伦加，机场10级，补给30000，各200架飞机、200组后勤。飞行员经验80，士气99；飞行队长各项能力全部80。
2 ]5 C) U# _- W3 F, [: C& Q3 E      8 X4 |0 O) o1 B" C
      鉴于游戏里高空的优势，10000、20000英尺不再测试，固定高度只测试30000英尺高度，由于Ki83远战与野马D机动性略有差异，分别是17、17、17、17、14跟16、16、16、14、11，按照第二机动高度房规的话，是41000对31000，由于双方速度、爬升率、火力（但Ki83远战机炮集中在机头，精度高出一倍）等其它性能几乎完全相同，显然野马D会被完爆，没有测试的必要，所以只测试极限高度的对抗。总共是分两场进行测试，即30000英尺与极限高度各10场，前5场盟军扫蝗军，后5场蝗军扫盟军。结果中包括空战损失数、ops损失数、需维修飞机损失数，并附上两者的飞行员亡、伤、俘数量。

- G( {6 C! e0 m      30000英尺高度，Ki83远战在CAP时能跟野马D打个平手，扫场时则以2:1获胜，两者的胜负手应该就在于Ki83远战机动性略好（17:14）、同时布置在机头的机炮火力精度较高。另外，在两种情况下，野马ops损失都较高，加上被击伤需维修的飞机也比Ki83远战多，所以下回合Ki83远战可出动数仍然要比野马高很多。

结论：, W9 L% ]$ m% J1 q8 G6 _
Ki83远战各方面性能来说都是跟野马D近似的一款战斗机; j' t( w0 \7 v. ]) `: ^- I
测试的结果也是如此，两者在30000英尺跟极限高度的交换比接近1
+ P# y7 ?2 x2 L6 L  k0 G这样看来，如果采用第二机动房规的话，Ki83远战可有可无（当然需要远程奔袭扫场还有有需要的），因为疾风丙已经可以在第二机动高度完虐野马D' }8 |* G, b8 x3 r: s1 D
但是如果采用44年后无限制高度的房规，Ki83远战还是有必要早日预研成功的

不过有一点一直很奇怪，那就是明明野马D维护度只有2，而疾风跟Ki83都是3，不知为何，野马的OPS跟被击伤需维修的飞机一直远远大于日机
