thank very much beside do you have to be rude to try and make a point
| Yup....
I agree with pb, there is no way to possibly determine who won a dogfight between two supersonic jets, pilot or no pilot.... Quote: |
and as far as the army goes , what would you know
| I was a Navy SEAL and saw more combat than u did Im sure, and endured one of the toughest training curriculums in the world.... Army Rangers??? HA! We were singing cadences while they were puking their guts out....
U Army pukes could shine my jump boots for $5.00 bucks, if u asked me nice enough...

And by the way the "Guy on the Ground" is called a "FAC." Forward Air Controller -or don't they tell you that "as far as the Army Goes"?!?!? Mushrooms grow better in the dark left undisturbed and fed with bullshit!!!

Country: | you're basing your entire argument around the plane's combat record against one fighter type? a fighter type that it was designed to take on, was about all it took on, was often flown by infereor pilots and was pretty much the only plane taking it on? well of course it's going to get kills, what happens when you put her up against a Spit XIV? or Fw-190D? you're gonna die, because the hellcat rarely got into turning fights with the zero, "boom and zoom" got most if their kills, go fast and hard, and DON'T get into a turning fight with a zero, you cannot base an argument for a aircraft because of it's combat record against an older, infereor plane...........

| What kind of radio was this that he was using to talk to fighter pilots from the ground??? One of those special "make believe" radios????
I sure could have used one of those....

Country: | When u grasp the basics of the English language, I'll bother replying to ur load of crap....
But for now, here's alittle warning.... My thoughts are high and mighty, and so is my size 14 shoe.... Before it gets permanently inserted into ur ass, u gotta ask urself a question, would my Mommy be proud, cause ur Immigration Officer sure wouldnt be....
Ur a meatball concerning the Hellcat, and u need to prove urself here moron, not the other way around... It's irrelevant anyways, cause I can tell ur stay here is gonna be a short one...

Country: | I will throw in my $.02. I have seen both the Zero and the Hellcat fly on numerous occasions, together and separately. Below 275-300, the Zero will easily eat the Hellcat for lunch. Above that, the Zero is just a dart. Compare the 2 airplanes side by side and you will notcie right away that the Hellcat is pretty close to twice the size of the Zero. Yes, it was rugged and made a good show in the Pacific, but the Hellcat was no match for an FW-190, if everything else was equal with pilots..

| N1K2-J George for me. Not the fastest plane in this comparison but often underrated. Excellent medium altitude performer, good rate of climb, good dive, excellent handling, decent firepower.
