Best Prop Fighter III

[oz rb fan]

bill have you read my posts?i only used the mk21 beau in the arnament section and even then pointed out that it was a strike fighter
but back to the question at hand of the state of art early war fighters the a6m and ki-43 were in a class of their own,but by the later part of the war both had surpassed with more speed and arnament by the allies.
the ki84 could turn with the best of the allies plus have better guns and speed than either the ki-43 and a6m .

Oz, I was writing in jest, but never have known about much about the later Japanese fighters. Was one a FW clone? As for the Aussie birds I've never been down there. Sounds like a garden spot though. Let's see, settled by mates too gnarly for 18th century England, surrounded by trecherous reefs with White Sharks, and most of the world's most poisonous snakes live there, except for the unihabitable desert part.

hi bill
that last paragraph made me realise that i live in paradise although melbourne is a bit cold for most of the real nasty bities .
the closest to a fw-190 clone is the ki-100 (the ki-61 tony rengined with a radial) as the designers studied the way the germans put a radial on such a narrow fuselage

Oz, Is it true that if you rarely bathe while drinking a lot of cheap whisky and associating with loose women, you develop a personal aura, sort of a chemical barrier that keeps the vipers away? For pilots here, most of the serpents are either land developers or work for the FAA. For the rest of you guys I'll go stay another day on Fighters III, and then go to the next category as we are getting near what I consider the end.
