VG.30 and VG.33 speeds are from sources. Insufficient info on VG.31 so its not included. I have confusion between differences of VG.35 and VG.36. So i went with HS.12Y-51 for VG.35 and didnt include VG.36.

VG.34, VG.35 top speed is calculated from its power output and using VG.33 drag coefficient.
VG.39 is calculated from test flight result doing 625km/h at 5800m and then using D.524 speed graph (using same engine) as reference knowing it had 610km/h at 6000m to fill in the blanks to gain drag coeffient.
VG.39bis calculated using VG.39 drag coefficient. This only applies if the bis version keeps the same wing as VG.39 and doesnt go back to the original wing.

Rememeber guys, these are purely close estimated calculations but they give us a rough idea.
