    Ken, this was funny. I read "Meteor" and was still mentally in Korea War history...for a split second I wondered what Meteors and AMRAAMs have in common.

    Default Vampires...

    I left out the Vampires (none in Korea to my knowledge but they were arguably better fighters than the Meteors)...

    Ken,

    If you're going to bring up the quantity-over-quality argument, then you really shouldn't leave out zombies.

    Fuchs:


    True on the anecdotal. However, anecdotes as antidotes to anecdotes should doted upon if the anecdoter is in his dotage...

    As to the 190s and P-51s, the 190 was, IMO, a great bird and the 20mms gave it an edge. It did better than most contemporaries at lower altitude but I suspect most often, the relative numbers were reversed...
