Westland Whirlwinds V FW190 or 109's
Did the Westland Whirlwind ever get involved in dog fight's with either the BF109 or FW190, if so how did this type get on against the two top Luftwaffe day fighters?
I have read it was involved in ground attack but it must have been engaged by the Luftwaffe at some time when operating over France? Also other than the obvious disadvantages of a twin engined fighter, why did the RAF not develop this aircraft as the Americans did the P38 and the Germans the BF110? Thanks Jon |
