Im curious, which one has the smaller hitbox? the a-wing or the rotw ships like the interceptor and bellubub? Im just wondering if there is any reason to use the s-wing over my belubub and interceptor besides just wanting to use a ship that is more iconic and fits with the time period better.

Currently the Hitbox size, from smallest to largest i beleive is:

1. RGI (thought to be rougly the same size as the JSF, but is bugged and its overlay on the chassis offset, so in action it is smaller now)
2. JSF (smaller then A wing)
3. B22 (although im not sure, could be the A wing the deservers number 3)
4. A wing( although it could acutally be number 3, and the b22 number 4. I cant make up my mind which it is)

I think the awing is slightly smaller than the bel-22.

i have more trouble hitting awings than jsfs, but that could be due to the awing pilots usualy being more skilled.

When fighting pilots that I know are skilled, I'd say the a-wing is significantly easier to hit than both the JSF and the Belb22, however part of that probably has to do with the fact that the a-wing doesn't turn quite as sharp as the other two.

The A-Wing doesn't corner as fast as the Bel or the Actis at full throttle. For an A-Wing to compete, the pilot needs to acknowledge that he can't just hit the Home button and go at it. It takes a little time and practice to find that spot on the throttle where you can turn like a JSF or Bel. It is there, believe me. I went 12-1 against a verytalentedJSF pilot lastnight because I found that sweet spot and never varied from it an iota. His engine set up was so powerful, even at EO4 with boost, his engine alone at EO3 just walked right up on my back door. I could not outrun him, so I had to outfly him.
