And yet, were the A6M's accurately modelled in regard of top diving speeds and roll rates at speed, the Hurry can hold it ;)
BTW, RAF pilots in Burma, receiving the Mk IIB's 12-gun aircraft stripped them for better performance. Down to 8 guns or less, and off with a slipper tank that was fixed. Not sure if they scrapped more off.
It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)

Hurri I v. A6M2 is one of the best fights AH has to offer.  While generally you're correct that the Zeke should win the fight, the planes are close enough in performance - and the effectiveness of their guns is so different - that most matches usually go to the guy who makes the first mistake.  One way or the other, it's always a lot of fun.

By the close of the Battle of Britain in late 1940, production of the Spitfire had increased to the point where all squadrons could be supplied with them. Deliveries of the Spitfire outpaced the Hurricane because it turned out that all-metal construction allowed it to be produced even faster than the mixed-construction Hurricane.
Hurr mk.I
Idk if the early spits had fabric but according to this every Hurr had fabric on it

well mk.I's take alot to shoot down planes, mostly cuz the planes that people fly have more armour that wat the 303's r ment for....
and i dont think that wat he ment... cuz he does fly mk1's on ocassions... and i fly em almost every other sortie....
