The rule that didn't allow us to fly it.
Because we were rolling up the missions in no time flat. And the bloody Spitfairies whined because we kept blasting them out of the sky becuase the clownasses kept attacking 110s and flying in front of them........:evil: The rule that when they brought it in meant many WC veterans left WC..... THAT RULE. Ask Oktoberfest. |

The majority of the Luftwaffe losses in WW II in both men and equipment were at the hands of the Western Allies. No matter the tactics or aircraft employeed by the Luftwaffe the losses became unsustainable and ultimately had no impact on the wars final outcome. In addition, the 109 and the Spitfire were both poor performers, both carried a thimbleful of fuel at could not land a knock out punch to it's advesary when the opportunity presented itself.
The squadron with the most victories for the RAF, in the battle of Britian, was the Polish pilots of 303,- 126 confirmed. They only were allowed to participate in the secnd half of the battle. The majority of these victories were scored in Hurricanes. In fact I beleive the majority of the total number of RAF victories in BOB were scored in the lowly Hurricane. Supporting the argument , the pilot has much more of an impact on an egagement than the aircraft. |
Yes,but the Hurricane was responsible for 60% or more the total number of english fighters too...

Overmodeled LOL! Try some turn n' burn in it and then accelerate away, slow as a snail, just like all the accounts. It turns pretty good, bad roll rate, good speed, horrible acceleration and I love it!

Not even dream about it.You have to maintain your speed at all costs and use cannons and MG fire in snapshots or better yet if you are a better deflection shooter than me... Something I have noticed is that sometimes you CAN win a turn fight with a particular Spit. It's like it had a real bad pilot inside, I don't know if is just a feeling that I had or somebody already experienced this ingame? |
You guys throwing numbers against Luftwaffe and stating how badly were the brits outnumbered during BoB and how heroically were they doing forget your facts:
- actually, you can't be so stupid to count bombers in that comparison, I assume it was a mistake from your part - Luftwaffe fighters had less than 10 (actually around 5) combat minutes over Britain due to the lack of fuel tanks (which actually counted as the major reason for the BoB's outcome) - each bailing out Luftwaffe pilot was a loss (PoW), compared with the brit pilots who could fly the next day again - brits fighters acting as free fighters, while german one were mostly forced to fly as escrots - the local superiority achieved by the brits fighters due to the use of radar and Center Command operational management You actually also forget that the brits were those starting the civil targets bombing campaign (the night raid on Berlin), which outraged Hitler who changed the strategical objectives of the BoB campaign in order to respond to the british outrageous behavior. You also forget that there were the exact words of the british command leaders saying that the german campaign would have continued with the initial strategical targets, they would have been forced to admit defeat in less than 2 weeks, as they actually were right on the edge. It's quite strange to see how history is modeled by the victors even in our media revolution times, and how easily people are forgetting the real facts of what happened right under their very eyes. |
