      @@coderbert3996 I don't know about that, but, the main inspiration was the Royal Navy carrying out one of the first major carrier harbour attacks on Italy. It was seen as a big success and the harbour was unusable for quite some time (mostly due to air dropped mines). The IJN high command actually went to the port to view what had happened first hand, then planned their attack on Pearl Harbour which makes the RN attack seem like a small training exercise.

      Well,they learned from What the british did from studying the raid at the italian naval base at Taranto. Up until and including large parts of 1940, CV warfare where considered not capable enough to stand against the battleship as the principal capital ship. Fast development of new aircraft made them soon into a very powerful force.

This was his first tour, he shot down 2 -Zeros attacking the base, his engine was shot up and he made a successful dead stick landing on the field. Great video thank you!

    hope they mention this The F6F accounted for 75 percent of all aerial victories recorded by the U.S. Navy in the Pacific
    U.S. Navy and Marine F6F pilots flew 66,530 combat sorties and claimed 5,163 kills (56% of all U.S. Navy/Marine air victories of the war) at a recorded cost of 270 Hellcats in aerial combat (an overall kill-to-loss ratio of 19:1 based on claimed but not confirmed kills).[43] Claimed victories were often highly exaggerated during the war. Even so, the aircraft performed well against the best Japanese opponents with a claimed 13:1 kill ratio against the A6M Zero, 9.5:1 against the Nakajima Ki-84, and 3.7:1 against the Mitsubishi J2M during the last year of the war

    Wish they'd gone into more detail about the Fleet Problems, which were only mentioned at the very end and almost in-passing, and how there were not only mock attacks on Pearl, but also a successful simulated strike on the Panama Canal.
    The results of the Fleet Problems caused the USN to begin shifting its doctrine to be more carrier-centric in the runup to WW2, and that's a big part of the reason the Essex class of fleet carriers were already beginning construction before the IJN attacked Pearl Harbor at the end of 1941. If the USN had waited until after Pearl to start laying down a new class of CV, it would have been quite a few more months before they started putting hulls to sea.

      Actually it wasn't planned. General Mitchell, at the time, was pushing for a stronger Air Force. But most didn't think it would be useful in combat. So to prove his point he launched a surprise "Attack" on pearl harbor. Needless to say the other Generals/Admirals were not happy with him even though he showed them what they could do. So they "asked" him to retire.
      American hubris, even after the successful "attack" they still believed it was impossible for aircraft to sink an entire fleet and that Pearl Harbor was safe.

    If you are about to get in to World of Warships for the first time or
    thinking about coming back. Please look into what is going on with the
    game and make the best choice for yourself. There is currently a very
    controversial Carrier rework being released. There are good arguments on
    both sides with the new system and the old system and the plans on how
    it is implemented. So if you are joining or returning be advised that
    Wargaming themselves have stated that it will take several patches and
    possibly months before then can expect it to be balanced. And if you
    return you will be a tester so be careful with the money you spend
    because you might be using premium time to do testing or buy a ship that
    is not the same ship in a month or two. I am just saying buyer beware
    and educate yourself.
    Because there are allot of bias people that will sell you a
    bridge in Brooklyn.

    The guy talks about the inline engine (F6C-1), the 3D model is of an F6C-1, yet you say it uses the R-1340 (R for radial) as on the F6C-4???

    The F6C in the video does not have a R 1430 Wasp engine the Wasp is an Radial engine, hence the "R" designation.

  • @frosty3693
    @frosty3693 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    The F4F-3 did not have folding wings. The Brittish wanted folding wings and six rather that four guns as they felt the firepower of four was not enough, so the F4F-4 was built. It was heavier than the 3 reducing it's performance. In the Pacific it was found that against the Japanese aircraft four guns would have been good enough (the F8 Bearcat had only four) so the 3 would probably worked better in the Pacific.
    The lack of folding wings was not restricted to the F4F-3 the SBD Dauntless did not have folding wings either.
    On takeoff the pilot of the F4F had to manually retract the flaps (takeoff position) and the landing gear. At the start of flight the pilot was a very busy person.
    British carriers, due to their armored flight decks and enclosed hanger decks had less room than the more open US and Japanese carriers. Also why the F4U's made for the Royal Navy had about 12" taken off the wingtips so they would clear the deckhead of the RN carrier hanger deck.
