Riiiigght.... Anyway, back to the topic at hand.

Incase some of you didn't know, the Spitfire and Hurricane in the early Mk's had the same Merlin engine, so it wasn't a matter of power; but of maneuverability and such. The Spitfire is better known because it was more recent, and got more Fighter kills than the Hurricanes. The Hurricanes got more planes all around, but not fighters. That's one of the misconceptions people have about the two planes.
