ESCORT B-17S TO HANOVER RAIL
In terms of overall dimensions, the Do 335
and the P-47 were both very large aircraft
considering the type of operational roles
they were intended to fulfill. Had they
met in combat, the results would certainly
have been interesting. The rugged
construction and heavy firepower of the
Thunderbolt would make it a tough
opponent for the Pfeil. The speed and
raw power of the Dornier's twin engines
would have given it a performance edge,
although the P-47 might have had better
maneuverability.
YOUR MISSION
Provide close escort to a B-17 formation
as they approach Hanover rail center.
You've been briefed about a fast new
Luftwaffe fighter type, the Dornier 335, so
keep your eyes peeled. Engage any
enemy fighters that attack the bombers,
but stay with your "big friends" as much as
possible.
