| Best Bomber Killing Aircraft...... There are a few that were just devastating against Bomber formations.... There has to be one that was head and shoulders above the rest.... Which one was it???

 | Nothing fast about the JU-87. Top speed of the fastest one was 250MPH. It couldn't keep up with the heavies. I'm with the Me-262 as well.
