V42 is very similar to 64fx (as mentioned by several Forum members: Tommy16 and Andy Smith).

Thus,

V47 (same topsheet but harder sponge) should be similar to 64. Is that correct?

R42 is most similar to Rozena. Is that right?

I am testing both but on different blades right now. Too early to tell but my first impression is that one could switch between R42 and Rozena easily. I am not claiming that they play identically. Eric937 mentioned that R42 and Rozena felt quite different in his hands.

Where does R47 fit in? Is it half-way between Rozena and 05?

After playing Rozena, I didn't want to go back to R42. I tried and it felt terrible. I went to to T80. Baracuda is a closer substitute for Rozena or T80. They feel different, but the blade angle e doesn't need to change much if you switch between those rubbers. One thin layer of booster also makes Baracuda, in my opinion, better than Rozena.
