Staple of the Luftwaffe, served well, but could be out-smarted.

Always loved these with 'Shark's Teeth' on the nose...looked well'ard...but weren't really.

Heavy, armoured, a beast.

Enabled fighter cover to travel with the USAF to Germany once fitted with external drop tanks. Saved a lot of bomber crews. Good job.

Oh, sweet, sweet plane. Twin vertically stacked engines, an almighty sight burning down the runway at 20 feet, then pulling 9 G to go vertical, and seconds later pass 10,000 ft. Bloody marvellous.

Workhorse, missle platform, not much cop in a dogfight, but a good all-rounder.

Rightly feared in the 80's and 90's, this amazing Soviet fighter was technologically crude, but damned effective.

Not really a fighter, more a missle platform of tremendous speed. Mach 3+ due to 2 massive jet engines, it could chase anything down bar the SR-71, and loose a couple of telegragph-pole sized AA missles at it's target. A real brute.

Shooting down more enemy aircraft in the Battle Of Britain then the more famous Spitfire, the Hawker Hurricane was the real backbone of the RAF. Simpler construction and greater numbers made this a real workhorse.

Had to age on 2nd roll, when he got doubles...blah.

Niggled out: 1/4

The Best.

Nuff said.

The wooden wonder. When introduced, as a light bomber, it was, remarkably, the fastest aeroplane in the world. Twin engines and balsa wood construction made for tremendous power-to-weight...it could climb higher & fly faster than anything else. And they sound cool too.

W00t, a lovely machine...has it's teeting troubles, but employed as a ground-strike fighter, could wreak havok...big time.

Could've been a great airplane, 10 years ago. Late, over budget...what a surprise, Anglo-French-German adventure. Concorde & Tornado should've warned them...still, good plane, but so late it's not worth the money now, and it's still not in service.
