Re: Messerschmitt 109 Design Problems

Mustang did not win the war because of quantity but because of range and quality of a system they were part of. There were numerous dog fights in the later part of war when Allied aircraft were outnumbered, nonetheless beating the Germans. Luftwaffe, even if triple sized, was just enough hopeless, not to be able to win the air war. Rather low quality of their aircraft was just one of the factors.
