C202, P-47

And the quickest way back to the tower if you make the mistake of thinking its an easy mark - the A-20 :)

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

What utter and compete BS, quite frankly I should kick you off this bbs for this post.

The real truth is you do not like the answer.

I've got to change my vote to (equally split) the Spit I, BF109E-4 and the F4F-4.

The Stuka isn't a fighter nor is the A-20 or the IL-2 even though they may be capable.

If the IL2 had more HP and was faster it very well could be a fighter.  23mm HVAP rounds rock!
