Which modern plane best matches its WW2 counterpart?

[evangilder]

Thats a big stretch. The Mossie did a whole hell of a lot more than reconnaissance. The Blackbird is only a spy plane. Sure, there was the A-12, but that was short lived.

I know the Germans had a high altitude reconnaissance jet (Erich, help me out here...). That might be a better match.

My joice would be the C130 the Dakota the C130 has been going for a long while now and still is a terrific transport just like the good old Dak

Thats a good comparison Lee. The C-130 is one of my fave planes.
