Sure, aircraft behave differently even in Arcade - but in Realistic mode, that difference in handling becomes really important. Here, where the laws of physics fully apply, it's important to know what your aircraft is capable of and how to use it properly. Getting familiar with the great many of choices available to you in the game can be a lengthy process, simply because there are so many to chose from. In this video, we'll take a look at ten aircraft which are really great performers in Realistic Battles and tell you a bit about how to use them properly. 

Which are the aircraft you enjoy most in Realistic Battles? Do you agree or disagree on the aircraft presented? Let us know in the comments!
