| I knew it wouldn't take long for the FW-190D to show up. Deserves honorable mention at least. In the top five fighters of WWII for sure.
Great feedback. I broke it down into categories to see what people come up with. A fighter is a fighter and it has to be flown aggressively. But it depends on the situation as to what I would want to be flying.
The P-51 has the range to practically run you out of gas over your home base. But it lacks the explosive shells to tackle heavy bombers.
The Ki-84 has a surprisingly large load of just that, cannon shells.
I think the Spit 14 has the best combination.
All three ( and the FW-190D ) can hold their own is a dogfight with any other fighter of the period. Boils down to the pilot at that point.
I didn't really think about ground attack. But if I had to pick something, it would have a radial engine.
