Spitfire Mark XIV

In the words of Eric Brown, RAF test pilot who flew virtually all combat aircraft of WW2, "the best Allied fighter of World War 2"

Hurricane was a useful aircraft in Battle of Britain as a bomber destroyer, inferior to the Bf 109. Then it was a good fighter bomber before the Typhoon took over.

Edit: Or a Japanese one!

That was more a ground attack aircraft. 2 engine aircraft can be beaten by single engine. As proved by the way Britain beat the Bf 110 in the Battle of Britain.

Doctor Who!!! We must make a Spitfire go into space. It was one of the best fighters, the Spitfire. You can buy one for 1.4 million pounds!.

But its murderous against bombers. When these came into night fighter service, the Luftwaffe abandoned raids on England...

True, it was then utilised to great effect as a anti shipping aircraft. One of the few aircraft the Americans borrowed from Britain during the war. The Japanese dubbed it "The whispering death" by the noise the engines made. The mosquito then took over as a night fighter.

Wrong. It was the Corsair that earned the nickname "Whispering Death" among the Japanese. Also, the Mosquito was the British night fighter. America's night fighter was the Black Widow.
