Schnaufer carried over his 110G though and admitted not freely that he was afraid of the larger Ju a/c

I will admit as others here that the Uhu does have a mean look about it

but still think the Ju 88G-6 had a look as well
Was just about to mention the 110G, there is a good book around on Schnaufer, do plan to get it at some stage, looks like a very good read, what was his total no. of victories? Certainly in the hundreds I recall.
Under the cover of darkness, even a bad dogfighter can look good.

Les we just may have a young one that is padding his count ......... a big no-no. The P-61 may have been the best all around for the US but that depends on what US nf crews you interview as some flew the Mossie and the Beau in the Med

I edited your post since you are still padding it.

Luftwaffe Me 262A-1a, Ju 88G-6

RAF 100th group Mossie XIX, XXX

US ........ nada a big fat 0. the P-61 in my book does not even stand a chance not the A-20 although made a nice low level night harassment bomber in 44-45

Soviets, never had any except in their own minds
