| Best Ground-Strafing Aircraft... Ok.. Heres another one..... Which aircraft, bomber or fighter, would u consider the Best Ground-Strafer... Bomb loads are irrelevant..... Just the gun platform..... Targets are locomotives, troops, light armoured vehicles, buildings, aerodromes, trucks and so on.. NO SHIPPING..... There are a few aircraft that come to mind on this.... Mosquito Fw-190A P-38J P-47D
