Historical notes - literally every detail of this recreation was based on the raid on Tangmere on August 16th of 1940. And almost all details are accurate :) Only thing that may not be perfect is the actual layout of RAF Tangmere. But did my best!

The last question is wrong.. Any German pilot in active combat, would surely have found a at least one French girlfriend by August 1940.. Most French soldiers would, at this point, be in a pow-camp or in Britain, leaving a surplus of French women unattended 😂😂😂 What is the point of invading France, if you don’t enjoy the spoils of victory, and you can’t expect young men to be into French wine and food alone..😂😂

Flying straight and level while being attacked is a one way ticket to hell, as very well documented by Oberst Ulrich Rudel who survived literally thousands of Stuka Missions by turning inside the possible turn radius of the faster fighters. It is very difficult for the fighter to hit you with his fixed guns, not seldom stalling out and crashing, while the same does not apply for your own gunner. The Stuka guns were not very effective in any case. The Stuka normally outlasted the fighters not because of firepower but because the fighters fuel would run out first.

At the eastern front the most famous Stuka pilot was able to fly 2530 ground attack missions between June 1941 and the end of the war, mainly on a Ju 87 G equipped with a pair of 3.7 cm anti-tank cannons. Fighting against the RAF or USAF this would have been an impossible achievement for sure.

@finncarlbomholtsrensen1188 Жыл бұрын
Actually the Stuka was a very advanced weapon. After having swung out the frame holding the single bomb during the dive, not to hit the propeller, when the bomb became released, it had a sensor pointed at the ground, which could decide the right, short distance, and when correct it released the bomb automatically, and the elevators became set to take the Stuka out of the dive, not to hit the ground! The pilot "just" had to point the plane at the target, during the dive. And the airbrakes at the back of the wings made the dive very "slow", so that it was possible to direct it and hit a small target, like a tank. The highest decorated pilot in Germany, besides Erich Hartmann, was a Stuka pilot: Hans Ulrich Rudel, who destroyed really a lot of Russian tanks with his Stuka. But the Russians totally outproduced Germany with so many tanks in their eastern Factories that it didn't really matter in the end.

Also I think that hardly any of the pilots had had a chance to become proficient in operating the Me 262 at its limits.

The word "Stuka" is a German abbreviation for "Sturzkampfflugzeug", pronounced: shtoorts (oo as in "book") •kahmpf•flook• (oo as in "spoon") tsoik; accents on the first and the third syllable. Flugzeug is aircraft. Sturz is dive. Kampf is struggle. At 15:53, the narrator mispronounces "Fräulein". Frau (woman, wife) is pronounced "frow"; Fräulein is the diminutive form of Frau; the Umlaut (here over the letter "a") alters the pronunciation to "froi•line". As for my survival, I cannot see well enough to drive, so how might I fare as a pilot or a gunner? Naturally, one would like to think that one would live through the war, eventually to return to my family, my home, my city, and to resume at university.

In August 1939, just before the start of the war, the Luftwaffe carried out a demonstration of dive bombing for top commanders. The onlookers watched as 13 Ju 87s dove straight into the ground killing all 26 crew, when the clouds they were diving through were lower than expected.
@maisonraider4593 Жыл бұрын
Ju 87s had 2 mgs on the wings. It would also make sense to turn and attack the hurricanes in a traditional dogfight and although the Stuka was not a fighter it had the capability to engage enemy aircraft and at least have a chance rather than staying in formation without fighter cover against more than one hurricane that boasted 8 guns. Some allied aircraft were brought down by stukas and the type was also credited with the very first air to air victory of ww2.
@jamesfisher4326 Жыл бұрын
It took someone of extraordinary skill and luck to survive using a dive bomber to dog fight with fighter. It makes more sense to stay in formation if you have fellow Stukas to join.The Hurricane has the option to attack or break off with it's superior speed and climb. It also has 8 guns to your 2. If you haven't stayed with your formation, you are also likely to find yourself outnumbered.

One thought I had as far identifying aircraft, I would hope I’d know If my fellow pilots were in the area. You’d think they’d share that info during the briefing. This was really cool. As a thought here, I always wondered how the B17 crews managed to not shot up their fellow crews in the heat of battle since I believe they stayed in formation. Thinking of the top turret, how did he keep from riddling his own tail?
@zaphodbreeblebrox9542 Жыл бұрын
[ From Mr. Jim Peters, former B-17 flight engineer serving in 99th BG: ] Yes ,there was a Fire Cut-off Cam on both the upper and lower ball turrets. The upper turret fire cut-off cam prevented the top turret from firing when passing the tail vertical stabilizer and rudder. If traversing from the right to left, the RIGHT gun would cut out, and then the LEFT gun would cut out,,,and then as the Right gun passed the limit of the fire cut-off cam, the RIGHT gun would start firing again...Ditto the left gun as soon as it also cleared the Vertical stabilizer and rudder. The ball turret worked in a similar manner to prevent firing into the aircraft propellors. Again, if you were traversing from LEFT to Right, when the fire cut-off cam was encountered, the ball turret guns would stop firing, passing N1 Propeller and commence again after clearing No 4. This would not work if the gun barrels were overheated due to prolonged firing, as the rounds would "Cookoff" due to the overheated barrel (s). For this reason, we were taught to only fire in bursts of 20 rounds or so. so as to not overheat the barrels. If the rifling in the barrel was worn, due to prolonged firing without a break, the bullet accuracy was affected, with no telling where the bullets were going.
@Turloghan Жыл бұрын
Nice recreation. But You missed one thing: in all Germans dive bombers an automatic equipment was installed to make sure that plane automatically out from diving to level flight after bombs drops. This automat starts work just after pressing of bombs release button, than trimming settings was changed and plane just after bombs drops starts pull up , with high G force which did pilots unconsious until G-loc ends. So pilot in Stuka did not keep pressed flight stick in this part of attack because of G-loc, and that's why Stukas was very susceptible to enemy fighters attack just after dive, when they leveled flight Path, cause theirs pilots need some time to regain consciousness and control of plane. This matters about this out-diving automat is not added to many flight simulators, and i see is not mentioned in Your movie. BTW : Russians bought a Ju-88 Bomber from Germans just before the war for evaluation. This plane in german doctrine of serial bombardment was able to dive bombing too. They tried to copy this out-dive automatic equipment, but they failed to do so before Operation Barbarossa.
