My vote is the B-25

But then again a smart pilot in the 88 could use his dive flaps to force an over shoot

Hell if anyone wants to find out i will line up for it

Ju-88 will be all over the B-25H unless an idiot was at the control of the Junkers.

the Ju88 but it would be the death of one thousand cuts with our model

My vote is for the B-25. I doubt that the Ju-88 has enough 7.9mm's to do much of anything to the B-25.

no different then the 7.62 on the C and i believe the ju88 would win, higher manuverablilty while the b25 is sluggish at almost everything the 88 is good at (minus diving)

Which C model? The glass nose version has a fixed .50 cal, the other two have eight .50 cals. The B-25C isn't that sluggish... Turns a fairly small circle with flaps out.

Don't bother dueling the Ju 88 vs the Boston III. That is a total mismatch as the Boston flies circles around the Junkers, out-climbs it with ease and is much faster. I've dueled these two with 2bighorn and the Junkers is badly out-classed.

My regards,

Junkers will out-maneuver the B-25 but it will still be a draw. JU-88 does not have enough forward firing rifle-calibre ammo to bring down a B-25.

EDIT/If the Ju-88A-4 would have the 20mm MG-FF/M option, it would be a different story...but even then the 60 round drum would require very accurate gunnery./EDIT

I love 88's, but the Two-Five would chew it up.
