For example

IF Spitfire 14 gets +21 boost and Spitfire 16 gets +25 boost, can 109K-4 get   the 1.98 ata boost and as a bonus - an upgraded BMW 801 engine for 190A-8?

:D

Here's the deal.  Whenever the RAF fans bring up points about Spit performance, there are certain folks who come in screaming bloody murder that it was small numbers, there is no proof or the proof is a lie, etc etc.

This also applies in the other direction.

I would be of the opinion that if HTC decides to allow top end performance for an Axis bird, then the top end should be allowed for an Allied bird.  

But I'm guessing there will be a middle ground somewhere and we won't see +25 boost anymore then 1.98 ata boost.

While we're adding boost and all, lets go ahead and step the P-38L-1-Lo on up to the true ratings from both Lockheed and GM/Allison for the -30 engines it had:

64" boost @ 3000 RPM = 1725HP WEP
or
60" boost @ 3200RPM = 1725HP WEP



This won't happen either, but we can all dream and enjoy.

1K3,

Remember, Pyro said the Mk XVI is mostly likely going to be at +18lbs boost.  That dings one off your list.

The Mk XIV is a perk plane, and that gives a flexibility that is lacking in the freely available aircraft.  Even so it may remain at +18lbs boost as well.

Yep, they were out to stop the low alt 190 fighter bomber raids on the South Coast of England in early 43.  They did OK at it too.  Then they escorted medium bombers of the RAF and USAAF to French targets.  High scoring RAF fighter Squadron in the Fall of 43 was 91 Squadron flying XIIs. They along with 41 Squadron flying XIIs formed the Tangmere Wing and did some good work in the Summer of 43 into early 44.  Later 41 did a lot of V-1 hunting in their XIIs in the Summer of 44.

They excelled low and fast.  They'd be a blast in the MA  since it's much more of a low alt airwar.
