 The Re.2001 gruppo 22 is the premium version of the [[Re.2001 serie 1]] introduced with the [[Update "Starfighters"]]. The aircraft is very nimble, though it lacks exceptional speed. However, the combat flaps can enhance its manoeuvrability further, albeit at a significant cost in terms of speed. For sufficient power generation, WEP must be used, but not for too long, as insufficient cooling tends to overheat the engine and can damage it. The armament, consisting of two 12.7 mm and two 7.7 mm machine guns, can inflict great damage on the enemy if used skilfully.

-This Italian plane is best used as an energy fighter and can be a very good start to learn how to use Italian planes. The plane climbs and dives very well, it can reach a high speed quickly, but like every Italian plane in this rank, controls will be stiff above 500 km/h (310 mph) IAS. The best performance is between 400 to 500 km/h (248 to 310 mph) IAS, but in a swallow level flight the max speed is 450 km/h IAS. To be in the above-mentioned speed range, climb up to 3,000 meters, and then dive onto the enemy. If the enemy is more than 2 km below, cut your throttle to 0% and only increase once at the same altitude as the enemy and started to losing speed. Diving or climbing straight at a 90-degree angle will cause the engine to shut down due to fuel cut-off. With its excellent structure, it is able to reach a top speed of 760 km/h in a dive and surprisingly it does not suffer from the reduction in manoeuvrability due to the high speed. It is not recommended keeping the WEP for a long time as the aircraft is not very cooled and could overheat in a short time.

It is an airplane more focused on energy fighting, but with the right conditions it is able to give an excellent turnfighting airplane, being able to keep up with more manoeuvrable aircraft such as [[Spitfire (Family)|Spitfires]]. Being a very balanced aircraft, it adapts to the playstyle of almost every player, it is recommended to take altitude and stay in the medium-low altitude range.
