RENDEZVOUS WITH B-17S
Recent Allied intelligence reports indicate
that the Luftwaffe is readying a new jet
fighter. Called the Volksjager, or
"People's Fighter", the Heinkel He 162 is
a very small single-engine jet fighter.
Identifiable by its odd top-mounted
engine, forward cockpit, twin tail fins,
backward-looking wings, and small size,
the He 162 should nonetheless be taken
quite seriously by any pilot or crew who
encounters it in combat. Allied aircraft
design experts believe this little bird may
be able to turn with our Mustangs and
even out-climb them.
YOUR MISSION
An unusually large number of escort
fighters have experienced mechanical
difficulties forcing them to turn back, and
thereby creating a weak spot in the
defensive net covering the bomber
stream headed for Kassel. You have
been scrambled to provide protection for
the vulnerable bombers. Lead your flight
of four P-51B Mustangs up from Bonn
airfield to rendezvous with a formation of
B-17s en route to bomb the Kassel
munitions factory. As you climb to 25,000
feet, use your map to keep track of the
bombers' position. You'll need to reach
the bombers as quickly as possible, for
even now they are entering an area
known to be heavily defended by the
Luftwaffe.
