Well boy, let me point this out to you, the 190s were caught and shot down by the spits in the dive. The reality is this was not a dive to the deck, but a bombing run, you can't just point your nose straight down. The Spit 16 is also a clipped wing spit, it doesn't suffer the same level of control issues as other spits. The 190F8 is the worst performing of all the 190s in AH. So you have the best diving and rolling spit vs the worst 190. Given the spitfires got kills on the first 190s your theory proves worthless anyway.
On the first wave my job was escort, I was able to distract 4 or 5 spits. Had I not managed to clear some of those guys 6's we would've been much worse off. I saw the spits roll in on the guys bombing, and despite being in a cleaner ride had trouble catching them in a dive. Once we hit the deck a couple of spits saddled up on me, and the spits in front scissored in behind me.
The spits had no trouble staying with the F8s in a dive, or rolling with them, or catching them on the deck. Maybe looking in 'god' mode you thought you saw different, but the people playing actually know different as the logs also prove. Get a grip boy.
Evidently, you're still not reading my reply correctly. I am not disputing the overall superiority of the Spit16 over the 190F-8, that isn't the issue. My stance for this thread is real simple: The Fw190 regardless of which model, will out dive a Spitfire, regardless of which model, in terms of control. The speed advantage will still be on the side of the 190 in that dive, but not much. Once that dive is completed, there is very little the 190 can do that the Spitfire16 can do better and all bets are off. Even the most veteran of pilots have trouble doing much with a 190 once their E is gone and a Spit16 is on their tail.
Secondly, I have not mentioned one single word about the first strike. Again, that isnt the issue. As your teammate above said for himself, there were no Spitfires on station above the fleet on their second attack. I watched from the absent tower (in gawd view) as those 190's came in for their second attack. I did not see the first attack, likewise I did not mention the first attack in the least bit. Do you comprehend that? Do you understand the words that have been typed?
... and I don't care how long you've been a registered member here in these forums. Being registered in the forums has no bearing on much other than having a date besides your forums name (just like my sig line says about scores, etc). Obviously, your ability on being clear, concise, and cogent in your statements and arguments are as elementary as it gets. You're throwing stones and creating drama when you didn't even understand the issue from the beginning. Shall we revisit you calling me a liar and for what reason? Junior?
