Were World War 2 fighter planes smaller than modern fighter planes?

You mean were WWII fighters smaller than today's jets; because "modern fighter planes" are jets. Generally yes, today's JETS are much larger than WWII propeller driven airplanes. But there were exceptions, the US WWII P47 Thunderbolt would be much larger than a MiG 17 Vietnam era jet. The largest US single engine JET was the F105 Thunderchief; you could literally walk underneath an F105 jet, while it's parked on the ground.

What was the best plane in World War II?

You will not get an objective answer for this question. The British will say their Spitfire, the Americans will say their Mustang, etc. etc. People that like the fastest planes will choose that one, people that like bombers will choose that airplane. You must choose a "class" or "category" such as the plane with the most aerial kills, or the most produced airplanes, or the largest ever constructed, or the one with the most armor protection, etc. etc. The "Jug" was the largest single engine fighter/bomber to reach service (P47 Thunderbolt), the A6M Zero had the longest range during WWII (nearly 2,000 miles). Those are some samples.

What kind of military aircraft had the 50 caliber machine gun mounted on or in them?

After 1941, it was SOP for all US airplanes to be armed with .50s. The P47 Thunderbolt had eight fifties; four in each wing. Mustangs, Corsairs, Hellcats, Wildcats, B17s, B25s, B29s, all were armed with fifties. Even the Korean War F86 Sabre jet had fifties. By the time of the Vietnam War, the .50 had given way to the 20mm cannon on US aircraft; Except the B52 in Vietnam, the B52 tailgunner had a quad .50. Those two USAF tailgunners were the last bomber "tailgunners' to shoot down enemy aircraft (two NVAF MiG21's) with machine guns in combat.


Which country has the best fighter aircrafts?

1. Japan had the longest range single engine fighter airplane (A6M Zero) in WWII, until the war was nearly half over with. 2. The US had the most rugged & heavily gunned single engine airplane of the second world war; the P47 Thunderbolt (8 fifty caliber machine guns). 3. The US Navy had the most heavily armed, most maneuverable, most rugged, and fast aerial killer...the Grumman Hellcat, which also killed a few German airplanes in Europe, besides its usual Japanese aircraft. 4. The US had the most powerful & largest bomber of WWII, the B29 Superfortress. The only bomber of WWII that could fly far & carry atomic bombs. European nations (Britain, Germany, Italy, etc.) ALL HAD SHORT RANGE AIRPLANES. They were all practically restricted to Europe with no strategic capabilities. A world war needs unrestricted airplanes (they need to have long range).
