You’re just forgetting one thing:
Radar-proximity fused shells implies a much greater advancement in radar technology - with much much broader - and widely more military advantageous situations than just shooting down bombers.
Think surface ships , u-boats, night fighters, intruders even bomber...
Please correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t the British ditch the Anglo-Japanese treaty by simply not renewing it?
In the ‘20’s I believe and under pressure from the US?
And I could be shot down and die in a flaming comet coming up against all those “better” British and American planes.
But I would still just love to fly a 109.
I thought this was my choice?
You don’t see me trying to dissuade others from their choice?

It’s sleek, rakish
And sitting (slightly hunched) it just makes me feel like a hunter - a bad boy - just out looking for trouble:)
