With respect to late war, one of the most incapable planes is the P-40c.  Cant climb, slow, guns need all the help they can get...

These attributes make the kills all the more sweet though.  :aok

Hurri I makes everything else seem fast.  Negative G cut-outs, bb guns and "Hurri" icon hurts from an offensive standpoint.

Runner ups-

Spit I is akin to the Hurri I but in my experience, better in LW.
P-40C it's guns kinda suck, but is a noticeably better turner than the P-40E.  A toss-up.
I-16 has some wacky handling but nice firepower - if you can bring it to bear.
109E is nimble but slow and the guns are far south of good.
C.202 is a nice turner/climber but too few guns.
A6M2 short clip, slow, fragile and the "A6M" icon.

Those fiest two were the first to come to my mind as well.

Incorrect. The I16 is amazing at killing a certain someone's La-7 while they try to rope you  :devil

Its a outrage! The Brewster won WW2, Held the line in Korea and turned what would have been the 32 day war into the 6 day war!  :old:

He-111, unless we are in a scenario; B5N, even when it is a scenario; Ju-87, unless it is 1939, maybe 1940; P-47Nancy, 'cause anything over the P-47D25 is just overkill; PonyD, which creates the incentive to run like a P-47N; Fw-190F8, because Grapevine, Texas has no idea what a time delayed fuse is; Bf-110C, because the G has all the answers; Ta-152, because Kurt Tank was drunk the day of Aerospace school when they taught about compression stalls; F4U-4Hog, because this isn't Korea circa 1950; Tempest, because it makes the PonyD look like a turn-fighter; and finally, everything else because they ain't the....

Don't give me a P-39; the engine is mounted behind
She'll tumble and roll, and she'll bore a deep hole
Don't give me a P-39

CHORUS:
Give me operations way out on some lonely atoll
For I am too young to die; I just want to grow old


... P-47Nancy, 'cause anything over the P-47D25 is just overkill;....

Don't give me an old Thunderbolt; she gave many pilots a jolt
It looks like a jug, and it flies like a tug
Don't give me an old Thunderbolt

Give me operations way out on some lonely atoll
For I am too young to die; I just want to grow old
