Has voting ended? If not I would like to vote for the Spitfire as the best fighter of WW2. It's my second favorite aircraft of all time. 2nd to the AH-64D Apache Longbow Tank Hunter-Killer Helicopter. The best fighter spitfires were in use for quite a while and managed to hold their own against an instrength luftwaffe and were marginally more manovoruable if I am correct than the Bf-109 in all the Spitfire incarnations.
