Usually Fw-190D's

dude late in the war they didn't have a choise, they put up what little they had...............

 

[cheddar cheese]

But thats what was being used mainly...

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

like i said, it depends on what they had, they didn't have the aircraft to be picky..................

 

[cheddar cheese]

I know, but thats what the D9 was used for mainly.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

whilst the As took on the bombers............

 

[cheddar cheese]

No, the D's protected the 262's during take off, engaging in combat ith the P-51's etc, once the 262's were up to speed and altitude they would go get the bombers....

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

so what you're saying is that Fw-190As weren't used to take on american bombers??

 

[cheddar cheese]

No, the discussion is about the protection of 262's during takeoff and landing. They wouldnt send up 190's and 262's. I believe the 262's replaced the 190's on the bomber killing side of things in the late war.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

like i said, they didn't have enough planes to choose what they sent up, they were literally sending up everything they had late in the war, and there weren't enough Me-262s to replace the Fw-190A...............

 

[cheddar cheese]

I KNOW THAT!

IM SAYING THAT THE FW-190D WAS PRIMARILY USED TO DEFEND THE 262'S DURING TAKE-OFF AND LANDING, IM NOT SAYING ANYTHING ELSE!

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

They wouldnt send up 190's and 262's. I believe the 262's replaced the 190's on the bomber killing side of things in the late war.

yes you did....................

 

[cheddar cheese]

I know, I was wrong about that, that was just a thought I had. But you keep questioning me on a relatively simple point, just to get your posts up probably.

Then again you always were a simple person.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

that was just a thought I had

surely you know better than that.......................

 

[cheddar cheese]

Its a reasonable point - I think the 262 was better at shooting down bombers than the 190A so I thought the Germans might have made the 262 their primary aircraft to send up in that sort of situation.
They wouldnt need D's to cover the A's.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

no, i never said they did......

I think the 262 was better at shooting down bombers than the 190A so I thought the Germans might have made the 262 their primary aircraft to send up in that sort of situation

The Fw-190A was just as good, and like i keep saying, THEY DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH AIRCRAFT TO CHOOSE WHAT THEY SENT UP!!!

 

[cheddar cheese]

I KNOW THAT!!! I WAS JUST SAYING THAT BECAUSE THE 262 WAS SO EFFECTIVE AT TAKING BOMBERS OUT THAT IT WOULD BE THEIR PRIMARY AIRCRAFT TO SEND UP, NOT ONE THEY WOULD ALWAYS USE, BUT ONE THEY WOULD PREFER TO SEND UP! DO YOU GET THE FRIGGIN' IDEA NOW??????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]
