I understand your point, Marcel - however, in a sim, it will not compensate for the P-39/P-400 flaws.
The sims I've run ages ago, did not replicate the dangerous flat spin or the shift in CoG as fuel/ammunition was expended. Even the Mudpond profiles in CFS3 were unable to provide an actual replication (although the performance profile otherwise was close).
The Yak-9 (mid, later variants) should be closer to the P-51D/K in profile and comparison.
It would be hard to nail down the P-39's performance directly compared to a Soviet type, but if it was, it would be closer to a LaGG-3 than a YaK-9.
