Its the pilot, not the plane that does the shooting down.
Do your research and I don't mean history channel crap, i mean flight data reports, combat evaluations, many 109 variants that fought the P51, like the late G models had similar performance characteristics to them, some better some worse but such blanket statements are BS.
BTW, apart from one of the top 10 aces of all time, flew all flew 109's.
