P-63 KingCobra......again

[Megalodon]

You got your backside pummeled quite a lot in that thread. No wonder this is a sensitive subject. Have a doughnut.

 I didnt get anything pummeled I did do some pummeling though  " There is no 51A" was 1 of the better moments

[Megalodon]

Megalodon, you know you could just create a custom arena and ground everything that isn't American and flew after 1942.

It would be essentially what you want, even if you don't know it.


But either way, just leave your bias at home, and stop the "Murica!!!!  " attitude.

Go USA, would like to add a plane to the vote?

How bout a couple bombs for the F that were never used in combat and only hung on the plane for a photo shot at a testing facility?

You only vote on German stuff, isn't that contradicting at its highest caliber? To you its luftwobble (wehrmacht) or nothing! lol

Hell Karnak used to be the same, but he's slackin off that british stuff, maybe he stopped drinking Gray Earl tea

Here's the thread you are talking about.

Hmmm.  Don't think I was ever exclusively pro-Brit. Certainly that is the direction my bias goes, and I do try to fight it, but I've always advocated for non-Brit stuff as well.  For example, I pushed hard for the Ki-84 for a long time prior to it being added.  The thing of it is that the American stuff, as our unit list can attest to, really doesn't need any additional advocation and the German stuff has always had fans who are very much more dedicated to it than I am to RAF stuff.  The Finns, Italians, Japanese and Russians all are out in the cold compared to the Americans, British and Germans.  The French are practically forgotten.

As to the tea, I actually only started drinking Earl Grey tea within the last six months.

There was once a time when you were Pro-Brit, but you really did even out through out the years. For some odd reason I cannot recall if I ever was a fanboi of any one nation mainly because I never really took one side. Ironically I have been in more luftwaffe squadrons (was CO of JG44 and JG7, member of JG54 and now 52) but I never advocated really anything on the Luftwaffe side. I did for the He-111 just for historical preferences. I guess if anything I advocate EW and MW rides over anything else, regardless of usage. Mainly because those planes bore the brunt of the war vs something like the P-63 that had only a few months of action.

Funny I actually started drinking Gray Earl as of lately, even though most brits will look down on me for shame for admitting that

 So lets include them and others.... this strictly .. we must have in this order crap is for the birds....

I thought Vinkman made a very good post in relation to the time in AH played.  I think you should consider that, as I have made the same argument with you and others before.

Even if he missed the scenario schedule a tad his 300% argument more than covers it.

 You said the p-63's were plinking jeeps  in the August Storm  right? There were no planes to fight was your emphasis <shrug> prove it!

Wow. Planes to fight and the fight having happened are two different things. This has been discussed in this thread already.

There's not much proving P-63s managed to fight anything that wasn't a GV or wearing boots.

I sympathize. Truly. All these threads you think you shine in.

Well, you're 300% impressed, at least.

That doesn't make the plane less importance, fact is both the luftwaffe and Japanese were done with when it was introduced. What if a plane was introduced (P-80 just for an idea), flew combat missions but did not manage to get any kills in a month? does that mean it didn't serve in combat?
We can argue its importance in the war, but facts are the P-63 served in combat.
A soldier in 1945 had just as much of a chance to get killed than in july 1944, does that mean he did not serve combat either? Why not? he might not have gotten anything to shoot at, but maybe he picked up that german helmet and tripped a mine instead. Do we discount his war experience just because of it?

Just fuel for thoughts, the war isn't over until someone surrenders.
