The Flying Fortress. A name that conjures up images of brave young men conducting daylight raids deep in enemy territory, far from home.

We take you inside the B-17F to expose how it worked, how it was operated and the tactics that made it a formidable offensive and defensive weapon. It's reputation and achievements have made the B-17 one of th...

We show you the M4A3(76)W HVSS a.k.a. the M4A3E8 variant of the Sherman, or Easy Eight as it was usually called. This model of Sherman tank partic...

Просмотров 848 тыс.5 месяцев назад
The Messerschmitt Me-262A-1 "Schwalbe" ("Swallow") was the first mass produced jet fighter in the world that entered combat. With its maximum speed of 540 mph this sleek bird outran every allied fighter at the end of WW2. It was not a "wonder weapon" but it was still an outstanding and pioneering design. The Me-262 went into production too late to significantly impact the course of the war. We ...

Let us know in the comments what you think of our new channel, wh...

    When I was younger back in the early 2000s I remember playing a Nintendo DS game called B-17 Flying Fortress that let you play as all the gunner positions. Listening to the background callouts of “Bandits! 6 0-clock High!” and “Fighters coming around fast!” I knew it was the audio used in that game. Really takes me back to my childhood.

    It was out of date by the time the US entered the war. Designed in 1935 as a coastal anti-submarine patrol aircraft, it was not suited to the mass raids over Europe, but they had to make do. It had half the bomb load of a Lancaster and required more crew, whereas the Lancaster only needed one pilot. Pretty soon the 8th started removing the upper and lower turrets and crew from the B17 so they could carry more bombs or fuel. The Liberator addressed many of the deficiencies, but unlike the Lancaster, neither could be trimmed to fly themselves in level flight. This resulted in exhausted pilots and so fewer missions. Reports abound of Lancasters flying home with a dead pilot and the radio operator doing the honours until they were over home soil and the survivors bailed out.

    Good video. I've known of the Ohka since less than the age of ten. I also knew that American sailors nicknamed it the Baka Bomb. All the rest of your information is new to me. Thank you for putting this video together! (I recall reading many years ago--somewhere, I don't know where--that there is no known account of an Ohka hitting a U.S. Navy ship. This may have been disinformation, as I probably read it in the late 1950's or early 1960's) Thank you for making this video! Andy McKane, Maunaloa, Hawaii.
