If any of you have read Harry Turtledove's The Worldwar series he does a very nice alien invasion series.
basically he gives the aliens modern weapons and sets the scene in 1942.
PzKw IIIh VS M1A1HC isn't much of a fight, but compared to the invaders there are of course LOTS of them.
And tho we can't model air-to-air combat Spitfires don't handle radar guided missles very well.
Infantry wise it's not too bad a match up but fire support (counter battery fire, attack helos, etc) give the aliens a good many edges.
