Finnish D21 vs H75 fighter stats question

[Simulacra53]

You can always argue about stats, but as I was starting the second scenario in the Winter War dlc (and choosing the first air doctrine specialty) I was thinking about buying a fighter unit.

I was surprised that the H75 was less expensive than the D.21 and after looking at the stats I noticed that there was an unsuspected difference in fighter vs fighter stats - A6D9 vs A8D8 in favor of the Fokker.

If anything I would have expected the opposite - a superior H75, especially in the offensive being faster and more heavily armed.

So what is this D21 offensive superiority based on, what am I overlooking?
