lazs, HogC and D are way superior to any 190 variant, D9 included.

Advantages of D9: substained climb and top speed at level flight. But bleeds E much faster than any Hog.

mandoble... yeah the only advantages that the 190 has over the DHog is climb, speed, acceleration and roll with cannon thrown in for good measure.   With good acceleration, not retaining e can be an advantage.

Last I checked, neither F4U could climb with any of the 190s.  -1D is a dog, -1C is a dog with big guns.  A-8 or F-8 might have trouble with them but D-9 or A-5 will spit them up and chew them out if the 190 pilot knows his business.

which just goes ta show that... most guys whining about hogs don't have the faintest idea about their flight model and what they  can and can't do.

Last night i saw a very humorous thing that definately made me want to fly the Hog-D. Someone was squeaking about being shot down and started whining about chogs and called someone a dweeb for flying it, when the other person simply said "d model"

complete silence...
