Nah, seriously. If the numbers in combat arent to be taken in account, bring a Ta152

Keeeripes that's a tough question.

 Scrapping the typical sim staples like the 51 and 47, 109 or 190, Yak or Zeke, Spit or Tempest...including variants....

 I would have want to go with the F7F Tigercat.

Well, others have picked several, so here's my choice(s).

Ground Attack-Focused:  IL-2/IL-10 or A-26

Mixed Role:  Mosquito or Ju-88 (had to edit this post to add the F7F as well, after reading the last post)


Mostly Air To Air:  Me-262 or Ki-100

One plane?

Guess, it would be the I-16, possibly the type 24, with six RS-82 rockets, and drop tanks

Hmmmmm......

Fw187 is so pretty... A7M would be so scary... Think I'll go with the F8F!

Definately the Fairey Firefly- a much overlooked high performance fighter bomber.  by the way-- "The road to hell is paved with the skulls of priests"  St. Chrysostum (5th century)

I agree with the P-63 with VVS markings.  Would be interesting to see how it stacks up against Allied iron.

[Ozark]

If I had (one) wish.....F7F Tigercat!!!!

I would REALLY love to see someone model the Golden age of Air Racing!  Say from about 29 - 35.

Travel Air Mystery Ship for one.  The airplane designed by a guy at the kitchen table who had the radical idea that speed was related to drag as well as horsepower, and the you could sacrifice HP if it cleaned up a lot of drag.  Everyone laughed at him.  Well Douglas Davis flew this bird in 29 against the military ships and beat them so bad they quit racing after that year.  Funny enough a lot of the subsequent fighter looked alot like the Racing planes from this design.

Give me a set of pylons and Golden age aircraft.  Fly  at 50', go fast and turn left.  Now that is excitement!

F7F tigercat   !!!!!!!!  

[Vermillion]

Just about any twin engined "heavy" fighter not yet modeled in a Sim  

Why? I have no clue, cause they usually stink in an Arena. But yah gotta love the potential of all that firepower
