Re: RAF Cat.2 during BoB

The terms used within the RAF for damage categories did change with time, so I would prefer a fuller description, specific to period, if I had one to hand. I would suggest raising this one on the RAF Commands website, where the regulars are likely to be more aware of any hidden subtleties. But I have never seen Cat.2 described as a write-off. Cat 3 is a write-off.

If you start including Cat.2 (or whatever) in the RAF losses, then you would have to correspondingly widen the equivalent Luftwaffe losses. Try getting agreement on what %age of damage is equivalent to what.......
