ESCORT B-17S TO A RESEARCH SITE Toward the end of the war, German research and development was still operating at a feverish pitch to complete ever more desperate secret weapons projects. Although Allied intelligence knew about much of the R&D that the Germans were conducting, these sites were nonetheless prime targets for bombing raids. YOUR MISSION Flying P-51Ds, you and your wingman are to escort a formation of B-17s to bomb the research site at Gottingen. A nearby MEW (Microwave Early Warning) station reports that small formations of Luftwaffe interceptors are present between the bombers and the target.
