Reality checks --
* wing loading and excess thrust are the 1st order factors. 2nd order is less.
* say hello to stall speed differences

At low speed the stall speed is critical which goes right to wing loading.
The plane that has the lower stall speed can still turn where the other cannot.

In banked level turns the lift is tilted, you need to have enough to keep the plane level, wings at stall angle must fly faster to make the extra lift needed to both hold the plane up and turn.

Excess thrust which changes with speed and height only determines when a plane can no longer hold stall.

Look at FW stall speed compared to what others you want.

Or you can take bits of war stories that tell less than they leave out and weave them with poetic license into a fabric fit for fairies and other fantasies. To call that reality or historic is a shame.
