Re: RAF Cat.2 during BoB

What difference it would make? Perhaps a clearer understanding on the events, as most English literature quoting the lossess of 915 vs 1776 (or around) fails to mention they are comparing apples and oranges : whereas all types (fighter, bomber, transport, operational, non-operational, enemy, non-enemy related) of losses are included in the quoted Luftwaffe lossess, the numbers are for RAF fighter combat-related total writeoffs only.

As for the 109E production figures, I've never seen any reliable or detailed on that for the period, and given the above described tendency, it may be worth to inspect the details behind.
