Buffalo/F2A-2. In IL2 Buffalo Mk.I uses same FM as B-239 which is a joke- they were totally different animals. The Buffalo was faster, but much heavier and had a lower rate of climb and was not as manoeuverable. The figures for the B-239 are, for the most part, almost spot-on, although the fuel load of 300 litres according to the 4.05 FM is too low- all Buffalo variants, with the exception of the F2A-3, had two 300 litre tanks making a total of 600 litres, or 160 US/132 Imp gals.
IRL, the F2A-2 was much faster than it is in IL2.
