North American P-51: 15
Lockheed P-38: 13
De Havilland Mosquito: 10
Messerschmitt Bf-109: 7
Boeing B-17: 7
Boeing B-29: 6
Republic P-47: 6
Messerschmitt Me-262: 6
Douglas C-47: 5
Chance-Vought F4U: 5
Focke-Wulf Fw-190: 4
Focke-Wulf Ta-152: 3
Avro Lancaster: 3

Ilyushin IL-2: 1
Consolidated B-24: 1
Grumman F4F Wildcat: 1

Country: | Okay well if that is the case, then why is the Lancaster the best. Why is it better than aircraft that were more capable and accomplished more?
