for high altitude "boom and zoom", then low altitude strafign and bomb runs, you can't beat the P-47!1 and Despite the fact that my favs are the P-51B first, the spitfire IX second, overall, I'd go Jug- if you faced a experten at 15 to 20K in an FW190, he'd be pumping cannon rounds at you and we are talking a lot of german "lead". above 25K? the dora model or a 109 K- fast and deadly both. The Spitfires and mustangs could easily tangle with the Luftwaffes best, but in a life or death, where BOTh could be taken out by a single cannon round? tougher plane to take down and you could DIVe like hell to get away, utrn the nose up and come screaming back to pour the ammo of 8 .50 cals into your enemy!
