My Money’s On The Spit…

  1. A late war Spitfire could take 'em. Did the British ever convert to 50 BMG?

    1. Yeah I dunno Mike? Didn’t they start with 6 .303’s? I think I read somewhere that they installed some 20 or 30mm auto cannons later in the war… but I’d have to double check that.

      Even if they didn’t… a hail of .303 could still ruin your day…

    2. Yeah, 6 .303's plus 20 or 30 mil. would make for a very bad day, indeed. I seem to recall that late war Spitfires out performed the P-51, could be wrong, I'm too lazy to look it up. They were definitely one of the most beautiful birds of the war.

  2. Do ion engines even work in an atmosphere?
