Spitfire Mk Is lack enough firepower to hurt the Ju88 in anything less than a sustained, multi-second burst whereas the Ju88s can easily amputate the Spitfire's wing with a brief series of hits. In a shallow dive the Ju88 can nearly match the Spitfire's speed, forceing the Spitfire to attack from behind.
The over accurate bomber guns coupled with the excessively fragile Spitfire wings makes any meeting between the two lopsided in favor of the Ju88s.
The Hurricane Mk I fairs a little better due to durability.
have you tried?
the RAF utterly destroyed the Ju88s and 109E's in the daylight bob raids last week, so im 100% sure with night cover it will be even easier
