since when has the G50 been in any way relevant to the outcome to the battle of brittain ?
it isnt and it wasnt
the reason the performance of the 109's, spitfires and hurricanes (and to a lesser extent the 110) is so important is because they were the main fighter aircraft involved, and the outcome of the conflict largely depends on the balance of those aircraft
with the current performance of competing fighter planes being so unrealistic, the outcome would have been rather different
