About
The La‑7B‑20 is a post‑WWII Soviet piston fighter (Tier 2 → Tier 3). It’s an upgraded La‑7 equipped with three 20 mm B‑20S cannons, better TWR, and a metal airframe. However, it sacrifices some top and dive speed and wing rip strength due to added weight.
Playstyle
Optimized for low-altitude energy fights and boom‑and‑zoom tactics. It excels below ~4–5 km. Engage higher-altitude enemies by baiting and drawing them into turning engagements at lower altitude, where this plane shines. Ammo discipline is key.
