How did they stack up as an airframe in general? Wiki gives a fair combat record for what little combat they saw, but what about the overall airframe performance? It appears underpowered with the OTL engines, but assuming Merlins or Kestrels...
Maneuverability: Is it more on par with a Me-110, or more like the P-38 it superficially resembles? The twin-boom should help in that area, but it's a lot heavier than the Lightning considering the added crew.
Performance: with the ATL engine upgrade, how would it do for climb/dive? Better on the latter I'd assume.
