Id like to make a layout of WW2 fighters and their top speeds month by month :
eg : September 1939 : BF 109 E1 - 334 mph
Spitfire mk1a : 365 mph
So as far as Ive searched the fastest plane at the start of the war was the Spitfire mk1a .
Rules are : Must be combat ready and in a squadron .
Must be a plane used in European theatre . (we can also do a Pacific thatre later)
Must have credible sources ( If anyone posts a piston plane that flies more than 500mph they will be shot !) . I'll update the first post with a list of all planes .
September 1939 :
1) Spitfire mk1a - 365mph
2) BF 109 E1 - 334 mph
