I'm not sure how you'd go about substantiating thatAlso, I'm sure RAF Fighter Command's losses would increase.

the Bf109 was every bit as lethal as the contemporary version of the Spitfire would have been to the Hurricane
Ahhh yesHistorically, German fighters were facing a British fighter force that contained a mix of planes that were both roughly equal and inferior to their own. In this hypothetical case, German fighters would face a British force completely equipped with types inferior to their own.
This is a very silly thread, a what if scenario thats retarded to even discuss...
Spitfires cost at least twice as much to produce.
I doubt that Germany could build a Spitfire for less then half the cost of a British built aircraft.Germans thought they could build them for less than the cost of a 109

Your price for a Me-109 does not agree with Olaf Groehlers Gdlk. Nor does it pass the common sense test as 15,000 marks is only about $6000. Roughly 10% the price of a P-51.That's why the German report is useful, because it compares to the same standard. It gives the price of the 109 as 15,000 RM (airframe only) and says the Spitfire, built in German factories, would cost 12,500 RM.
