They left out the Brewster Buffalo !!!

Buffalo was the only fighter in the world that actually looked like a lumbering ground dwelling herbivore.   That its pudgy fuselage could actually rise into the air on those tiny wings is a minor miracle.

I dispute the assertion any of those aircraft can be considered overlooked.   Hurricane?  Bf-110, wildcat, b-24 liberator, overlooked?  You've gotta be kidding me.  

For some real overlooked aircraft, how about indigenous Romanian IAR 80?

Have to agree with you on the Hurricane at least. In the UK it's almost as famous as the Spitfire.
