Ironically, in late-Pacific maps with the F6 and the Corsair, the Zero should be completely outclassed in speed and firepower.

Corsair yes, but late Model 52 Zero had top speed of about 352mph and F6F Hellcat top speed was about 360mph.

Re: Fw190

The P-47 is a very underrated fighter, but I think that with its 8 .50cals, its ability to take a shitload of damage, and hold its speed in a dive, it was definately a formidible boom n' zoom fighter. Fighters were either boom 'n' zoom fighters (used energy tactics such as diving from above and swooping away to safety after taking shots) or turn 'n' burners (like the Spitfire or the Zero, they specialize and good turn and rollrates), so if you use the fighters strengths correctly, it'll just come down to piloting skill.

No it didn't, the P-51D outperformed most versions until the late war Dora models.

455mph?! No it didn't!

The fastest "G" subtype {of the BF-109 series] was the G-10 capable of 344 mph at SL or 428 mph at 24,000 ft. with a meager range of 350 miles and an endurance of 55 minutes, but it wasn't introduced until the spring of 1944. Too little, too late, and still lacking in range and endurance.

I don't gotta listen to you, i'm not gonna make one mega long post of omnislashing when I can make 3 seperate ones. Your lucky you got the Evil Monkey from Family Guy as an avator or I'd have no mercy on you (i'm a huge Family Guy fan).

I don't care how you cut it, that's n00bish. God dammit.

Ok buddy, If I'm a n00b than you are a gay midget clown gangbanger and a reverse blumpkin pivot-man in a circlejerk.

Top speed isn't everything. At low speeds, the Zero out-turned almost anything else that was being fielded at the time, but it had almost no armor, poor acceleration, poor armament, and most importantly, poor climbing ability. All it could do against a Corsair or Hellcat was turn at low speeds, and drivers of the former would simply refuse to be drawn into that, and cut the Zero to ribbons while maintaining a high airspeed.
