Caldera, the Boomerang looks like an interesting bird. How did it stack up to the Zeke?

It would get out-turned, just like everything else.  A rather low top speed of 305 means the Zero would run it down too, but it could make a good low alt scrapper.  It's small, highly maneuverable (reportedly more so than a P-40, which turns well) and armed like a Spit V.  Not quite a B-239, but still dangerous to tangle with. 

This thread has some good info:
