Bob,
Lets really get provocative....What was the best ever piston engined fighter....now not necessarily one that saw action.. or entered production, but flew.....one which took all of the experience gaine dand combined the best features of them all...
The Bearcat? The Super Corsair.... the P-51H....the Spitfire Mk22?
Sea Fury? MB5?
Of these I'd argue that the MB5 was the most advanced, if was a generation ahead of the Spitfire/Seafire Mk22/24...so far more suited to its Griffon powerplant..
Imagine it if you will a Griffon engined Mustang.....
The Bearcat presents a might strong case....
