146 I will say this, speaking of the last thread, and this one, as well:

The chief objection to the dive-bomber is its lack of a good aerodynamic profile. The fronts of the damned things were ginormous, and they needed insanely powerful engines, to accommodate and carry the massive balls of their pilots.

Jeez - Imagine diving, headlong, at a bunch of guys who are trying, desperately, to blast you out of the sky before you drop your ordnance and manage - you hope - to pull out of a nearly-suicidal dive.

Similar looking but as you know totally different operation. The Lightning top speed around 440 mph. I think the Widow topped out around 350. The Lightning was almost a 100 mph faster than the Spitfire.

The LOACH guys in the hunter-killer teams in Vietnam.
