F4U-4 best prop fighter in the game.

I would say, if Movie, or anyone else here switch from a Mustang to a Hog, we remain the same pilot.
Anyway, only if there is a rather big discrepancy, regarding the pilot skill, the P51 pilot will outmanouver the 4-hog.

As I regular pony pilot I can say with certainty: The -4 hog eats the pony up clearly.

Whichever one is made by Messerschmitt

Sorry Knegel:

F4U-4 either paces or outruns the Pony at most altitudes and where the P-51 DOES have the advantage it's not by much. Hog out-accelerates, out-climbs, out-zooms, out-turns, out-rolls and will soak up more damage. And while I never use it as a jabo, hauls a heavier load.

Really the only two advantages the Pony has is range on internal fuel (4-Hog just doesn't have much loiter time) and pilot visibility.

I think that is exactly what Knegel was tryin to say.
