That made my day ...

A little new addition to my collection: Hobby Boss 1/72 Bf-109 G-6 (one of their easy assemble kits)

ZTS Plastyk actually but I think quality is similar.

I know I am shitty at it but i still like it...... So here is my Collection (not only WW2. The whole lot):

P-11 doestm meet criteria of retractable undercarriage and closed cockpit. As for armament P. 11a and b had only two MGs. P11c (and not really built g variant) had 4 but 2 of them were field removed to Save weight andimprove speed.

Well True. Still wouldnt call it worst fighter of ww2. I would take it over MS406, Fiat G. 50 and Bloch 152 any day.

The 157 was the only one with enough performance. That is why i am not putting it up as the worst. It doesnt have a good record with 151,152 or even 155 on the other hand.

On the other part. If hurricane was that bad they will surely stop producing it quicker then they did. Hurricanes were used with relative success in Burma and North Africa as fighter bombers. I think the ease of repair and lower repair cost was something of value as well. While no match for...

Well you have a point. Finns by puting Klimovs in them (Morko Morane) had quite few successes with them as well. The problem with Blochs on the other hand is the engine severely hampering performance. And that it was continued in production after armistice so 663 units were produced throughout a...

The original TU-22 was a weird aircraft but I always liked the Tu-22M. At least they gpt rid of this weird engine placement.

I am leaning closer to MS.406 on this one but cannot disregard Bloch 150 family. Decent-ish airframe totally killed by engine (as true with most French aircraft of the era). If the CR.714 was built in bigger numbers I would have a clear contender though.

It is rugged. Was a decent anti sub aircraft as well but not exactly a looker what was a theme of this post.

Sorry if that offends someone but I always thought Fairey Gannet extremely ugly,

IDK but i loved this one since i saw it for first time.

Hobbyboss 1/72 Spitfire mkVb. That is one of their easy kits (very poor in detail), but i had to have a 303rd squadron spit in my collection.
