I saw the news blurb on this, it made me laugh real hard. Iran is still in the dark ages culturally. They think they thru out the Sha, all the did was trade for another corrupt regime.

I'd bet a paycheck that the first time it flies out of Iranian air space, a predator drone will do its magic and make it disappear. Persia used to be the cultural center of the world. They were arrogant then and were sent to the dark ages for it, they never came back from it. Arrogance is a great leveler.

As part of Operation Crossbow, some P-51Ds were tuned to increase their speed to intercept V-1s and were responsible for shooting down 232 V-1s.  This was due to the limited number of Tempests that were initially available to intercept the V-1s.

There's an old movie called "Operation Crossbow" that's about the Allied operation to combat Germany's long range terror weapons.  Not a bad movie to waste the day watching.
