Great gameplay all and all, don"t wanna do too critic much but understand this more as a funfact: 1. The plane that gina use were a Vought O2U Corsair plane. It was use as a light bomber during the battle of Shanghai. 2. The heavy bomber model that are used on top of shanghai was a G3M, and it was indeed massively use by the Japanese during the battle albeit not so many as they tried to avoid collateral damage with the international quarters. 3. The Zero that chased the plane is anachronistic since battle of shanghai were in 1937, the A6M Zero only debut in 1940. At that time Japan would have the older brother of the Zero which is the A5M that's only equipped with 2x 7.7 mg 4. The epic plane duel seems to be happen on an odd looking plane which combine both the element of D3A1 and B5N1 bomber plane. Honestly the modeler seems to take a direct approach on B5N1 but this is, of course anachronistic as B5N1 didn't even debut in Combat until 1938 at this stage the plane is still on its last trial before being produce. 5. All of this historical inaccuracies of course shown a much more symbolize meaning rather a logical and firm historical accuracies. China air force were mainly still just biplanes of many kinds. While the Japanese get a much more modern looking aircraft than the Chinese at that time.

[@RiderRohanG]

I wanted to basically comment what you did but your comment is very detailed and I was only going to name the Japanese planes bc I did not know what the one they used is called and yes the dive bomber that they take from the Japanese is very unusual with the nose being the D3A1 and the main frame being a B5N1 anyways thx man

[@graffriedrichvontanjung2487]

@RiderRohanG the cockpit is weird too, A B5N torpedo sight, but the back was a D3A gunner seat

[@graffriedrichvontanjung2487]

​@SearchHistorySeekers white camo do exist on pre-pearl harbour B5N, especially in the 1939 to early 1941, my sources seem to said it was used mainly by home country naval defense (Yokosuka and Kure), but in April 1941 Kaga seemed to have a white camo style too, albeit the tail of the camo should be red and the engine tip should be black like D3A color scheme

For the people gaslight from seeing in this game Indy slinging a biplane with a whip. Actually though canvas covered aircraft are easier to handle than people actually think, I'm a slim male, tall 5'8 and I can easily lift the whole tail section of similar aircraft, at my aeroclub we do it to fit more aircraft in the hangar every time. I hope this was of interest, so in realty the crazy part is using a whip to actually hold the plane and then later on fist fighting while wing walking. 😂😂😂 But it's game, I believe it's perfectly allowed, and I love it.

[@Moofenic]

[@HKcaptainxAkagilove]

I am really surprised that we got Eastern War on the screen which is RARE, and some fun facts about the plane Jones hijacked is the Japanese early model Type 97 Bomber "Kate" judging by the outlook, landing gear, and engine cap which is a three-seater, carrier-based bomber with no main weaponry on the front. In the Game Jones was in 1937 which was the time that the Japanese Zero Fighter had not yet been introduced into the war, I believe that the game used the Type97 model and then put the weapon and the same color on it to mimic the legendary Zero Fighter which was first officially introduced in 1940. Even though the plane itself was not very historically accurate, it is still happy to see them getting into the Indiana Jones universe in such a good way.

[@CommissarChaotic]

I think it's because they're flying in a relatively narrow space and don't want to risk just crashing and dying though two men both on one side of the plane would make it tilt towards them but then maybe the pilot could try to fight it and stuff and then it makes more sense afterwards because he really might crash and die if he tilts with that much weight on and if the two fall off or like jump and stuff like wouldn't that cause the plane to wobble and destabilise too (I'm thinking of that time I jumped off of a kayak when I was a kid and it ended up flipping and also that hot air balloon thing where a person jumping off could cause it to destabilise and all that but idk how that works with a plane so don't take me serious on this part)

It is mentioned in the film that Short Round was orphaned by the Japanese bombing of Shanghai, but since the Sino-Japanese War did not begin until 1937, there is actually a discrepancy in the setting.

[@Motleydoll123]

The history between China and japan around this time is a thorny mess… short rounds parents were likely killed in the Manchuria war, a conflict that started in 1931 and would continue of and on until 1945, as it became involved in the larger second sino-Japanese war. What is happening here in the game is Lucas rhyming history as we are back in Shanghai with imperal japan bombing the shit out of it again… and now Henry “Indiana” jones jr can punch or shoot some Japanese soldiers… and we are connecting dots like “Is this the incident that orphaned Short Round?”… no, but these are bad people… so no guilt in dispatching them.

[@odyssey5329]

⁠​⁠@@Motleydoll123I’m doing a research project on exactly this. Manchuria wasn’t really a war, more a occupation that didn’t really escalate into direct conflict since none of the government would want it and the factions in the army would still be torn on whether or not to invade north or south. I would say that it’s more likely they died in the first battle of Shanghai in 1932, however iirc there were no bombers during that incident

[@austin9988]

​@@odyssey5329 your idea does make sense as in Shanghai 1932 the Japanese conducted aerial attacks on buildings the Chinese had taken up positions in such as the commercial press

In 7:00 scene, Indiana Jones steal driving IJN aircraft is Nakajima B5N1 Type 97 carrier base Torpedo Bomber, Type 97 Torpedo Bomber is give more tactical bomber design, And that Type 97 aircraft fly speed and range more than Swordfish and TBD Desavtator(Because B5N only had in wing set up with integral fuel tanks), And that B5N can carry more heavy bomb and torpedo to anti-ship strike attack and attack enemy air filed and AFV(tank or truck or armour truck) and base building or bunker, But B5N less armour and self sealing fuel tank, That make all USAAF and RAF all fighter aircraft easy defeat Type 97 Torpedo Bomber.

Crazy to see in the comment section some people have to literally spend time educating the rest of others about the Shanghai Campaign during Japanese invasion, Imperial Japan began its full on invasion campaign in 1937, two years prior to the outbreak of WWII, education regarding this part of war is extremely inadequate in the West, imagine a Chinese is surprised to hear about the NAZI invasion of Poland or their war crimes against the Jews… this is very concerning.

[@austin9988]

Japan was already stationed in Shanghai for 10+ years by 1937, plus had a fleet continually operating there since 1919. China invaded Shanghai in July 1937, breaking the non-aggression pact signed in May 1932. But the IJA going wild in North China kind of negated it anyways.

@@austin9988 "China invaded Shanghai in July 1937" is probably one of the craziest sentences I’ve ever read... In July 1937, Japan launched the full-scale invasion of China and attacked the Chinese garrison in Shanghai in August. Then the Chinese army decided to mount a large-scale defensive battle in Shanghai. I believe The Great Circle is the first AAA game to depict the Second Sino-Japanese War.

@@DinoKiller912 for all it's aggression, Japan did not attack the "Chinese Garrison" in Shanghai. There was no Chinese Garrison allowed there after the 1932 Shanghai treaty, just militarized police called peace preservation corps. In late July 1937 China snuck actual troops into Shanghai dressed as said police and later began moving full divisions in August which soon clashed with the part of Japanese garrison at Bazi Bridge on August 13, 1937, sparking the famous battle.
