Re: Performance of the Fw 190A on the Deck?
The correct way to to calculate the effect of the weight to speed is to calculate the change of the induced drag due to changed Cl and find the new balance between thrust and the drag by iteration method.
As an example if we assume that the Typhoon does 580km/h at sea level with 2200hp and 80% propeller efficiency at 4800kg. With these parameters a 500kg weight increase will decrease speed by 1,92km/h.
