i realise it's not a grammatical mistake but grammar's spelt with an a not an e, but you're right in saying he's a grade A dong..........
 
I still dont understand what he is trying to say with that though...

Lanc I have a few pics of the French Built NC.900 but for somereason when I try and upload them it tells me that it is an invalid file. I will try and post them but I am sure someone else has some and will post them first.
 
Yes but the Hurricane would have been outclassed by the Dora any day and I think that it would have been a much closer fight than you think between the P-47M and the Dora.

I got to try out that one in a simulator.(P-47M vs Dora) . But you got to admit, that the hurricane did the job that it was intended to do during the BoB. The spits would stay high up, engage the fighters, while the hurricanes would maul the bombers. On occasion the roles would get reversed and then the hurricane would probably have a hard time though it could probably hold it's own.

Well - makes tactical sense. Spits were higher performance machines, better suited to tackling fighters. 'canes were more stable gun platforms, nice for taking out bombers.
 
Hi All
I think this is a debatable question. The ME262 in it's rare pure interceptor role, four Rhinemetal 30mm cannon, and some later ones with rocket pods would take an awful lot of beating.
But was it really the best in a wider look at the topic?
It needed a very good pilot. It soaked up resources I feel could have been better applied on something else?
I gather the FockeWulf 190 had a specialist varient notorious enough to become known as the Formation Buster?
 
i realise you may have a lot to bring to the forum but with an attitude like that from the new guy you wont get far.........
with such buttheads here it's hard to be positive.
what i see here is absence of humour together with foolish rage and noob abmitions of "comparing ass vs dick"/russian proverb/

i'd better stay in more specialised forums, such as "Other Mechanical Systems Tech." and so on where all words said are backed up with amount of expertise.
 
Hehe, I've got the perfect image for this thread...

Panzers shooting down Hurricanes with their main gunz!!! :p

damn I'm good!
 
"...In the distance the Hurricane tank-busters were attacking Panzers from only 50 feet off the deck with their 40 mm cannons. In defence the Panzer IVs were using their 88 mm guns as Flak cannons and had taken down three Hurricanes. Yet another Squadron of Kittyhawks began their dive onto targets in the area. 260 Squadron used up the last of their bullets and left the battle raging behind them. "
