with the new HQ model, not enough ord made it, but <> knights valiant effort tonihgt , shows what countries are for!!!
(too bad some "spies" informed the enemy, and we were intercepted by 262's and 163 6 min after takeoff )

I'm not comfortable with that.

Yeah, that is pretty sad. "Ahoy mateys, man the cannons! Starship enterprise is overhead and attacking!"
You know what would be pretty cool. If, upon receiving the spy's info, the rest of the country spontaneously decided to defend with spit1's and hurris.
Score too important I guess :P

LOL that guy on the right has the callsign "dogsnot" ROFL.
I loved the stuka raids when you guys were on rooks. Sorry to see you guys on the other side, I enjoyed flying with you JBs very much. Maybe I'll take a field trip one night. JBs.

was a blast

JB73 I must be a spy then..:D .. There were two of us roaming that area at the time you guys launched. Me in my Mustang and I wanna say Outkast in a set of B-17s. We called the raid over country to get folks to intercept. I know I was coming up with a heading to the NE and I believe Outkast was headed E. Not positive on his position. We called the group out at about the same time.
I was on scene when you guys had barely hit maybe 5 to 7k or so. We just happen to be in the right place at the right time. I'm sure you can ask a few folks. I believe I was the first person to start buzzing through the 87s. Then a few 109s and I think a 190 jumped on me. I know there was atleast 1 Mustang amongst that group too. I started hitting the front of the pack right off the bat. I got like 4 or so before the escorts got me.

Spits and Hurri I's would ahve been fun, but the JU87's would ahve all made it if they defended with those. Its really too bad that the 303's are useless for anything other than a lucky, or unlucky I guess, pilot hit.
-
Well, Booky, that's kind of the point. I think the cool thing for the enemy to do in that situation would be to up spits and hurris, and not care that maybe it wouldn't "work" as well. But whatever, do whatcha like.

Hey Cobra, was that you later on in the pony v lightning fight? If that was you S! you handled that pony well. I made it to the VH on bailing wire and bandaids. Gear, engine, guns and hemaglobin all shot away.
-
Hey Lizard. Yep that was me. You hammered me on the first pass and got my pilot. I was surprised I lasted that long. It was definately a great fight. I'm still amazed at the 38s turning abilities.

super cool...

SUPERSTARS!

2 303s on a Spit5 are useless
but 8 of them is not and you would no this if you ever flew them
but it does need a tracking shot but iv been able to saw off parts with a long burst from the Spit 1 and hurr 1

Sweet 73! Thanks for The AAR.
Looks like you are bringing some much needed fresh air to the Knights (ever notice the foul stench that drifts over from thier border?) Well Done!

WTG JB's looks like alot of fun

Spit V's have 4 303's + 2 20mm's and a nice blast from 250 with convergence set to 250 saws stuff off real nice.
