To be fair, those Buchons, being unarmed, are probably lighter than a wartime 109G. And with the Merlin they have about the same power as a K-4.

The Spits are also unarmed and de-armored.

In terms of scope, yes.  But it isn't even in my top ten.

DBW is not exactly a BoB movie, but it is good.

The original Iron Eagle is really good, actually.   Underrated.
