Re: Allied air superiority in 1944: P-47 D Razorback decided it?

Excellent points, Drgondog
It is nowadays easy to forget how bloody WWII was and that when facing competent, well equipped opponent, losses tended to be heavy in those days. In 1943 Germans still had mostly well trained pilots flying good fighters even if the Allied planes had catch up in quality and partly even overtaken the German ones plus competent fighter controllers operating with help of radar.
