Need Help on school assignment

Hi,
Could anyone please help me on the following topics for my school assignment.

1. What were the main aircraft used in ww2 (and Nam)?
2. What are the differences between the aircraft used in ww2 and Nam?
3. How much money was spent developing the aircraft in these wars?
4. What advantages did aircraft give over other stuff? (weapons, transport etc.)
5.Did one side have air supremacy over the others? For what reason?

Thanks.

First of all, a half decent response to this would take pages upon pages to fill. Second, this sounds like a school assignment. There are plenty of sites out there with tons of information.

I don't want to be rude, but you may find that people will be more receptive with a different pseudonym. There are people that come to the site that have been looking for your namesake and will probably not find it amusing.

Yep. Sorry to get like this, but I'll be blunt.

When I first saw this my first reaction was;

"Oh great, an Aussie Troll from Brisbane. Just what we always wanted - not."

So either you change it yourself or I will change it for you.

Message complete. Mederator mode offline - back to normal cheery service!

"Aussie troll"... I see that you're sensitive. 800000 people died in an earthquake in China, and they got over it, so I suggest you get over 9/11 too. The US have killed over 20000 Iraqi civilians, but you wouldn't mind if my username was George W Bush. Get over it. If my username has affected any pathetic sense of self security, then feel welcome to change it. Otherwise, it would be greatly appreciated if you kept on topic.

I think you're too imature for this site, try Yahoo chats - There are many on this site that would be more than willing to help you but your attitude shows signs of a very spoiled child.

I suggest a library and I hope you get an "F."

I'm sure it wasn't directed at you, Wildcat. Remember that the mods have access to things that enable them to trace IP addresses of the posters to where they posted from.

Yeah I know it wasn't directed at me, I was just wondering how they knew he/she was from Oz.
Ah, the almighty power of the Mods. They know everything about you...
