BEST pure DOGFIGHTER in WWII

[HellFire]

Greetings every1:

Here's a question that I'd be interested in resolving, what was the BEST pure DOG-
FIGHTER in World War II?   Was it the:
                                          (a) BF109
                                          (b) Spitfire
                                          (c) P51
                                          (d)Yak9
                                          (e) or ????
Pls list the reasons why, thx.

You'll never get a definitive answer, NEVER.   You omitted many others that deserve mention.  The Zeke, Hurricane, P-47, Hellcat, Corsair, and others.

This should go in the Aircraft & Vehicles section.   

If I had to choose, the Pony never would have been included.   The Hellcat or Jug.   After talking to a Jug pilot from WWII today at the Kalamazoo Air Zoo, I'd be torn with either.   

[Anaxogoras]

None of the above.

U4 is best in the game.

i'd say a6m2 at the time of production,

obviously the spitfire evolution was a great A2A dogfighter,

the hurricane also.

What's a pure dogfighter?

[Lusche]

Perhaps the A6M. And that's the very reason for it's demise during the war - Air combat was rarely about dogfighting at all.

What about the best IMPURE dogfighter?

Ki-43 is said to be significantly more maneuverable than the A6M, though lighter built, shorter ranged and with less fire power.
