... F-5A Lightning attacking I-177 at 65,101 F-5A Lightning reports diving submarine at 65,101 ... Maybe he used his dropped tank?

I have seen my Dakotas bombing cities. I figure they were throwing trash out of the cargo door. They never hit anything. They did take losses from AA.

I recall a report from a convoy where Martlets (Wildcats in Royal Navy colours) attacked German submarines. They had no bombs, and the MGs couldn't penetrate the hull, but the German sub commanders didn't know that, and hence dived. Sometime, an apparent threat is enough..

My guess is the guys on the wet-bridge don't bother to spend more than a few seconds on aircraft recognition. If you're a U-boat in the middle of the North Atlantic, if it's a plane, it's probably not your friend, and it's best just assume that it's going to try to kill you. -F-

Too true.

Hi all, quote: ORIGINAL: Feinder My guess is the guys on the wet-bridge don't bother to spend more than a few seconds on aircraft recognition.
