Spits or Hurricanes, just weren't ready for much. The British pilots were just one heck of a bunch of great men, real heroes in my book.
Those .303 were like peashooters up next to those 20mm cannons.
So, yeah the BOB SOW will not be as much fun as taking a late model spit and flying against just about any kind of enemy online currently.

well, ask all those Lufwaffe Pilots who had to fly a Bf109E-1 , armed with 4xMG17
and the E-1 was the second most 109 version used during the BoB !
