i agree with everything you say and i think the P-51 was an amazing aircraft and great at it's job but it didn't win ww2 on its own which this show seemed to suggest that's what got me worked up

hit a couple of bullets through the side of a P-47 will kill the pilot and down the whole aircraft, what's your point? yes liquid cooled engines are more easily damaged, but a couple of shots? really? the P-47 and no air cooled is invincible, many of them were lost so obviously they aren't, and stories of planes returning on a handful of cyclinders aren't commonplace they happened yes, but let's face it and damaged engine is gonna cause you problems and in a heavy single engined fighter you're just as likely to go down flying on a couple of cyclinders...........
BUT, the P-51D WAS more susceptible to groundfire than the P-47D... Why???
The engine...
All this back and forth sh!t is drivin me crazy... Any plane can be shot down by the lucky magic penetrator, but the Mustang was easier to shoot down...
You just said 2 - P51 and B17...[DH]Chris89;206307 said:Well if it Has to be British i would have to say the Wonder Full Mosqutio, Quick, Light weight, and had one hell off a punch in the nose.
For German it would Defenitly would have to be the Foker Wolf 190 A-8 fast and a brillent Aircraft agasint B-17s and P-51D's
