See now that's a far better argument than your 1st statement and well done for that. You've listed some great aircraft and in a way you've touched on the very heart of the problem the Defiant (and Hurricane for that matter) suffered...it had to compete with the Spitfire for engines and that's a battle it was never going to win. Personally I would love to see where it's development could of lead but that's something we will never know or find out. I'll let the Defiant's record speak for itself.
152 victories against 37 losses, a ratio of 4 to 1. I think you'll agree that for a fighter considered a failure by most...it's not too bad.
