Western powers didn’t believe the Japanese could not produce frontline aircraft and that Asians could not see well enough to become fighter pilots. The Zero in the first year proved the Allies wrong.
I like it because it is a simple, yet good looking plane.

The sentence seems to want to say that the West believed two “could nots”, so it should start with “Western powers believed…”
This reminds me of an old joke about a debate between two linguists:
Linguist A: “In English, a double negative can be used to express a positive, but a double positive can’t be used to express a negative.”
Linguist B: “Yeah, right.”

The P47 was a beast, but I love all things German, so my favourite has to be the JU87G.

Is this a reference to the fact that the Grumman Aircraft Engineering company (which built the F6F Hellcat) was affectionately nicknamed “the Grumman Iron Works” by US pilots because their planes were as solidly constructed as bridges?

I don’t know… but I do know they could take a hell of a beating and still fly, and fight.

Yes, I’ve heard that some US pilots who were able to return safely to their carriers in a severely battle-damaged F6F swore they would never fly any other kind of airplane.
