^  The Stuka is a dive bomber, so not really comparable.

Also, keep in mind that many of the aircraft you mentioned have also been navalized by Kancolle fiat, and given said fact it basically makes them paper designs, which in Kancolle seem to translate to a relative increase in performance. So in fact, there is strange logic to the implementation of said planes.

The F6F-3 meanwhile is similar to the basic Zero fighters in the game in that they're just mass produced fighters assumed to be flown by average pilots, and even then the basic F6F-3 is still superior in combat abilities to all the basic Zeros, which is more or less representative of its superiority against them. Since it's an actual mass-produced carrier plane and not a prototype, paper design or a named squadron, then its stats are not in line with the more upgraded examples you stated.
