the really sad thing is ITALY was closer to a jet fighter on its own than the US.
I'd say the United States had the best air force of ww2, bar none, but that is more because of bombing capacity than fighters (I'd say best aircraft would be the me 262 for fighters and the b 29 for bombers.)
Canada provided major contributions, especially for things like the battle of britain and the battle of the north atlantic. Additionally, the naval contributions both in material, ships, and escorts was enormous (ports were important too).
Even a nation like Iceland played an important role in the war.
I'm just waiting for a fps type game to feature the italians (which would be the horribly gimpy side) or the French (free french were okay, but the regular french army was truth be told pretty bad).
What I'd really want to do is play an 88mm flak gunner against tanks and infantry, that weapon pawned![http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]](http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif)
