Usage in battles

Describe the tactics of playing in the aircraft, the features of using aircraft in a team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but instead, give the reader food for thought. Examine the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • Powerful armament, can destroy even the most armoured air targets with just a small burst
  • Quite manoeuvrable
  • As a premium aircraft, has better SL and RP multipliers
  • ShVAKS have a high rate of fire
  • 37 mm cannon has a rather generous amount of ammo (50 rounds)
  • 37 mm cannon can load Armored targets belts, capable of penetrating up to 60 mm of armour
  • In addition to the 37 mm cannon, can carry bombs and rockets, allowing to to be useful in ground battles
  • Minimum fuel load is 28 minutes
  • Great climb rate, can manage 30 degrees with WEP
  • From a distance, can be mistaken for a MiG-3, allowing you to take the upper hand

Cons:

  • Liquid cooling system is located in the wings, allowing it to easily be hit
  • Only one 13 mm steel plate protecting the pilot, can easily be pilot sniped
  • Forward acceleration isn't very good compared to other aircraft of a similar BR
  • Engine overheats at 100% throttle
  • 37 mm cannon is inaccurate, making it hard to use
  • 37 mm cannon overheats after just 6 shots

History

Devblog

At the end of 1940, the aircraft designer Nikolai Polikarpov came up with the initiative to create a fundamentally new combat aircraft for Soviet aviation - a fighter with heavy cannon armament, that could fulfill tasks typical for heavy fighters and attack aircraft, while possessing the flight characteristics of a light single-engine monoplane fighter. The military accepted Polikarpov's idea with interest, formulating tasks for the future aircraft, such as effective air combat, including the destruction of bombers, aerial destruction of tanks and armored vehicles, as well as escort missions. The assembly of the first prototype began in May of 1941, however, due to the rapid offensive from the enemy towards Moscow, production had to be evacuated to Novosibirsk, Siberia, where the test unit was completed. 

ITP (M-1) (ITP is for “heavy cannon fighter”) was a monoplane fighter with a 1,650 hp M-107P engine, the armament of the aircraft consisted of a 37mm Sh-37 motor-mounted gun and a pair of 20mm ShVAK cannons. Flight tests began in February 1942, but were not fully completed due to engine problems. A little later, versions with the M-107A and the AM-37 engines were tested, on the second prototype, the 37mm cannon was replaced with another ShVAK cannon. Work on the ITP project was interrupted due to the untimely death of the Soviet "king of fighters" in 1944.
