Nice, spixteen is a pretty good fighter, my fav used to be teh 190D as i could fight and attack untill I saw the La7's gun package and took it out for a spin!!! And the B25H is techincly a bomber but I would call it a HEAVY attacker as it has no bomb sight, however i will still count that.

Ok 999000 you didn't  understand what i posted or didn't this topic all the way through, (I usually do unless I am in the top 7 people as they usually reply to the originol post. I do so I can get what the conversation is about.). I wouldn't bombers as fighters, or the B17 as an attacker. I problably wouldnt say bombers really have any offensive fire power as a fighter, I probably could have worded that better, only deffensive as you can't go in after somebody, they must come to you. While I respect your oppinion, I would like you to write again and tell me what is your fav fighter and attacker please. And don't salute yourself please, it makes you sound shallow and self absorbed in my oppinion

You clearly do not know who or what 999000 is and why in his case the answers were exactly correct... watch out next time when 999 is going after YOU in his B-17!  :lol

Personal Favorites
Bomber - Ju-88
Attacker - Ju-87
Fighter - 109F4

If you aren't already, you should be playing in the Tunisia scenario.  Next frame is today (Saturday, April 25th).  Show Up Time is 3 pm Eastern (but not later, as arena is locked after that) in Special Events II.

We always can use more Ju 88 pilots.

You need to look at it this way:

Popularity
vs.
Effectiveness

In a popularity contest, you'll see the Spit 16, P-51D, NIK-2J, and La-7 as the top fighters. In reality (in a virtual game, scary  :uhoh), that will go to F4U-4 hands down.


Correct! F4U-4 is hands downs the best fighter aircraft in the game. In real life, many believe if the war hadn't ended as soon as it did, the F4U-4 not the pony would have been known as the finest fighter in the war.

Fighter-Yak-9U, "special mention LA-7"
Attacker- IL2, "special mention Mossie".
Bomber- B-17, "special mention B-25H which is vastly underused in AH". "2nd special mention B-26".
