I'm not claiming Me109 kicks P51 in a dive, but those reports really do not support your claims, in most of theese starting altitude is not mentioned, speed at any moment is again not mentioned, and no 109 in those reports lost control before it got shot. Maybe 10minutes was not enough after...

That diagram is very interesting, but it has some contradicitons with other AFDU material, even the one you can find on the same site. For example the Mustang3 is highly rated on this diagram while FW190 turns out to be very poor. However this is what MustangMkIII tactical trial has to say...

Yes I can't say my guys were the best, but they definitely deserve the mention, we had almost as much aces as Italy did and our top scoring aces made more aerial victories then their did. And all that with one fact in mind - there was only ONE Croatian squadron, the 15.Jg52 Considering the...

Don't forget Croats. Very few pilots and many of them aces ;)

And another source, to my understanding it shows how much literature often states to be produced in relation to what was produced.

Don't know, this is the very first place I saw 684 figure, I was always shown 1805 one, we need some reliable data...

BTW guys I don't know if this is right or wrong, but this books are not the only or my primary source for those figures, it's just the only thing I have about the whole deal "on paper". If anybody can provide another insight on this matter, I'm very interested, being a FW nutcase and all that:lol:

That's it, thx :)

Cool :) For Antons it's Volume 1. Pages 66 and 67 For Dora and Ta152, it's Volume 4. Page 76

I'll post the scans with complete data for all FW's tommorow, it's really a bit too much for me to re-type all that here. The books from which that data is are the "Kagero FockeWulf 190 vol.1.-4."

That's probably because most sources don't count examples from all factories ;) A number of ~680 pretty much covers only Fieseler Kassel factory production numbers. FockeWulf 190D9 was produced in: Focke Wulf Cottbus - 720 Focke Wulf Aslau - 30 Fieseler Kassel - 680...

FW190 Production tables: A-0/V :45 A-1: 102 A-2/A-3: 960 together A-4: 974 A-5: 1752 A-6: 1192 A-7: 701 A-8: 6655 A-9: 910 ------- D-9: 1805 D-11: 20 D-13: 1 ------- Ta 152H-0/V: 44 H-1: 25 EDIT: I have serial numbers, dates, and...

This is the report of bf109 high speed trials original document with translation to english.

Well actually I've heard many contradicting things about P51 max.Mach number, the highest I've heard is 0.82M. Anyway about German planes, I have a document of ME109F with G wings high speed trials where plane in question reached Mach 0.805. I will make a quick search on the Tech. subforum as...

That was in a dive, NOT level flight, 600MPH=965kmh at sea level Mach1 is 1224kmh, so that would be what, mach number of 0.8? That's nothing special really and could also be attained by German propeller fighters. Me262 was much faster IN LEVEL FLIGHT than any piston engined aircraft. What's...
