If you buy a premium plane because you want to grind for other planes , go for T4s.
The german D13 is a great plane for boom and zooming.
This is one of those impossible questions to answer, everyone has different tastes, flying styles, reasons for buying a premium, and budget. I tend to only buy premium planes that either fill in a BR rating hole/weak area in a countries lines up or a plane with a unique capability not found in the countries lineup at that battle rating. My personal favorites which will differ from everyone else s are:
US: BTD-1 T-3 Naval Diver bomber, versatile plane, nimble for a DB, good bomb load, cannons, spawns at bomber height so can double as bomber hunter
P47M-1-RE T4 fighter, fast nimble, 8 50's, 2500lbs bomb, fills a hole in US 5.3 nicely
Germany: Doesn't need any help at T4 fighters but I like FW190 D-13 and Tempest Mk IV anyway,
T2 Wellington has good bomb load particularly good in low tier matches with light vehicles 9 bombs can take out a lot of light targets in a hurry where most only carry 4
Russia: I-153P T2 cannons, rockets, maneuverable, one bad ass biplane, can hold it's own in T3 matches
Spitfire Mk IV T4 very maneuverable, fun to fly, climbs like a rocket
British: Hellcat T3 Dive bomber, good bomb load, reasonable armament
Any of the low tier light bombers (Tier 2 Avenger, Boston, DB-7, Tier 1: Havoc, Wirraway)
Japanese: FW190 A-5 T3 nice hammer to balance the zero's turn fighter.
B17E T4 because in general Japanese bombers suck (or more politically correct, they are performance challenged except the G8 and R2Y2 jets)
Everyone's list is going to be different and tuned to how they like to fly. There is no best premium plane. The best values tend to be in the Steam or Gaijin bundles where you get one or more planes, some premium time and golden eagle for less than what they would cost individually.
US: P47M-1 RE
Russian: Spitfire Mk. IX
Japan: FW190 A-5
for me the american bf109 f4 is amazing you have the versatility of the 109 itself which can be good in a dogfight good climber and bomb and zoom, but has can devastate many planes at the rating,so that would be the plane i would go for.
and in the British line up, the best premium plane i would say is the typoon mk1b, basically its the 4.7 plane at a lower rating so its a seal club plane and also i you have mastered the sea hurricane mk1c then flying the typoon should be second nature and it never fails to at least get me 4 kills a match. And it can fly with almost everything black so that's a bonus.
When you fail, fail over and over again until you succeed
Thanks for the replies everyone, now I have my mind set up.
I'll buy the Dora and Typhoon packs, which gives me Fw 190 D13 and Typhoon 1B.
After that with the GE I got from packs I will buy USA Bf109 F4, Brit Hellcat and Brit Wirraway.
interesting read. thanks for info guys
The 1b typhoon i love, not used the d13 yet. Have others just cant remember them all
could always just put talismans on your tier 1's and seal club :) lol
