the TAH-152 never saw combat as a production fighter, why is it even on this list.

[lucasmconcordia]

@angryace13 Yes, it saw combat.... It was introduced in the ends of the 1944..... The latest kill of the war, was one german in a Ta-152, against a Yak-9....

[FrancoHitlini]

Th Mk 9 Spit was a happy accident. It was meant to be a stop gap in order to get a plane in the air that could take on the FW190 and ended up being the most produced of any of it's variants.

@FrancoHitlini

In my view, the Mk9 Spitfire, was the best version of spits...

[FrancoHitlini]

another plane you might like to think about (if you not already have done) is the Yak 3. A superb fighter that could turn inside the 109 AND 190 and a plane Luftwaffe pilots were advised to avoid.

@FrancoHitlini I sent you a PM

It's seems you forgot all the very good italian planes like Macci MC202, MC205 (for many people the best plane of WWII), the Fiat G55 and G56.

But anyway good vid, thx.

[lucasmconcordia]

@shortdiver

yes... i forgot a lot of great airplanes---- o love the Mc 205, but is difficult to please the differents tastes..... thans for the comment..

[hitmenhockey1]

P-51 is the best.  Hellcat didnt make the list...

[service1956]

The P51, and japans zero were fast, but not very durable for hit resistance. Did not take a lot to knock them down. The P-40 Warhawk was a flop along with other early American aircraft. Not very much thought at all posting this video. What about the #1 Aircraft of that time..... The F4U Corsair? And then from there. #2. P-38 Lightning. #3. Spitfire. #4 P-51 Mustang. #5 FW190. #6 Hawker Hurricane. #7 Zero. After this, about everything else were equal with some minor variations.

@lucasmconcordia

this tells you that what that only a handful of them saw combat, lots of them where destroyed just beacuse they malfunctioned. how does this stack up too the P-51 Mustang with almost 5,000 enemy aircraft destroyed, or the spitfire? or the BF-109 with over 30,000 aircraft produced! it may perform great at high altitudes but what about lower altitudes where all the other fighters and bombers will be! its maximum speed was accomplished at over 40,000ft!

@lucasmconcordia \

never really saw combat as a production fighter, only aroud 40 where possibly produced and there where so many issues with them, engine performance issues, ECT, that only some "pre production models." or concepts really saw action, and they only claimed about 3 areal victories in there services, and they where not invincible, as four of them where shot down buy other fighters including spitfires, only two remained operational at the end of the war.

[JPStrikesBack]

The P38 had a much faster rate of climb than the Ta-152, and a higher ceiling than any of the other planes in your list. The goal is to attack from above and behind the enemy, I think the P38 should be rated higher. The P38 has 50% faster climb rate then either the Ta152 or the P51. It may not have been an acrobatic plane, but it was a better fighter.

[XCougar85X]

I think there is one problem with all these "top10's". There are only 10 spots. That is like 30 spots to little to make room for all those planes who where actualy good at various times of the war.

[LarS1963]

The TA-152 as #1? Really? :D

All 43 (fourty three) of them, introduced in april -45, managed between them seven victories and four combat losses.

The P 40 at #10, but no hurricane, mosquito, YAK 9, ME 262, LAL 7? No Italian planes like MC 205? The spitfire at #9 (which model is that?) and the ME 109 at #5 (again, which model?) The jug (P47) at #7, but no Typhoon?

Your list is simply what planes you think are the coolest. Fair enough, but name it: "My coolest WW2 fighters" instead.
