Operation features:

The engine is equipped with the two-stage mechanical supercharger which should be manually switched at 2900m (9500ft) altitude.
The engine mixture control is automatic when the mixture lever is set to NORMAL (1/2) position. It should be set to START (forward, throttle lever movement will be limited by 1/10) position when starting the engine and to CUT-OUT position (back) to stop it.
The engine has an automatic RPM governor that controls the propeller pitch to maintain the required RPM.
Water and oil temperatures are controlled manually by adjusting the radiator shutters.
The aircraft has a fuel gauge which shows remaining fuel in fuel tanks depending on switch position. In game the fuel indicator switch changes by pressing (RShift+I).
The aircraft has pitch and yaw flight-control trimmers.
Landing flaps have hydraulic actuators and can be extended to any angle up to 80°. The speed with the extended flaps is limited to 160 mph.
The airplane tailwheel rotates freely and does not have a lock.
The pneumatic brakes are differential: moving the pedals with brakes pressed results in releasing the brake opposite to the pressed pedal.
The landing gear indicator lamp lights up if the throttle is set to low (less than 1/3) position with the landing gear retracted.
It is impossible to open the canopy at high speeds because of the ram air, but there is an emergency jettison handle for bailing out.
The aircraft is equipped with bottom formation lights.
The range-finding gunsight reticle can be adjusted for a given target base and range.To make it easier to aim missiles it is possible to shift the target line up to 5 degrees downward (key combinations Right Shift + Semicolon / Right Shift + Period by default).

Basic data and recommended positions of the aircraft controls:

Starting the engine:
- recommended position of the mixture control lever: Start
- recommended position of the radiator control handle: close
- recommended position of the prop pitch control handle: 100%
- recommended position of the throttle lever: 10%
Recommended mixture control lever positions for various flight modes: Normal (auto mixture control)
Recommended positions of the radiator control handle for various flight modes:
- takeoff: open
- climb: open
- cruise flight: close
- combat: open
Approximate fuel consumption at 2000 m altitude:
- Cruise engine mode: 7.7 l/min
- Combat engine mode: 12.3 l/min
