With the Bf 109F and the Fw 190 both better or equal to the Spitfire V? The Hurricane was not even close.

The 109 was nowhere near as manouvrable as the Spitfire and the FW190 was not available until the end of the battle of britain, when Goring asked what the Luftwaffe needed to win the battle of Britain he was told a squadron of Spitfires,
The Hurricane shot down more enemy aircraft than the Spifire because a there were of them and b they were much tougher aircraft The hurricanes were used to go for the bombers and the Spits used to go for the escorts.
