WWI was dominated by .30 caliber machineguns.

WWII the US airplanes were ultimately armed with the deadly .50 caliber machine guns. German and Japanese planes during WWII still used .30 caliber machineguns, but supplemented those small caliber weapons with cannons.

How long did it take to put together a fighter aircraft in World War 2?

The length of time to assemble a fighter plane depended on the type of plane, the manufacturing plant and which nation was doing the building. At the beginning of the war, the Brits were turning out 400 fighter planes a month. The US could produce more than that a month but we had more types of fighters and companies. I have included a production graph for you on the web site below. This chart does include all types of planes though. Follow the links and references and you may find fighter plane production figures.
