Luzon fighters are wearing out...rather than take IJAAF sweeps and lose badly, we attacked. First sweep high with P40B, where we ran into many more enemy fighters than anticipated. Morning Air attack on Tuguegarao , at 82,74 Weather in hex: Clear sky Raid spotted at 20 NM, estimated altitude 34,000 feet. Estimated time to target is 7 minutes Japanese aircraft A6M2 Zero x 26 Ki-43-Ic Oscar x 22 Allied aircraft P-40B Warhawk x 20 Japanese aircraft losses A6M2 Zero: 1 destroyed Allied aircraft losses P-40B Warhawk: 4 destroyed Then we swept at 100' with the P36A!
