Horizontal strafing was impossible on fighter planes. Only a forward-mounted turret gun could do that.

Do you know what the word "horizontal" means? parallel to the plane of the horizon; at right angles to the vertical.
"a horizontal line" That means left to right or right to left. All they could do was shoot in the direction the plane was going. They could not sweep from left to right or right to left got it now?

Their leader went batshit crazy. Maybe he shouldn't have trusted Dr
Morell all that much.

Wonder what could have happened, had Adolf a) distinguished zionists
from ordinary folks and b) not invaded Russia. How about fortifying
defenses along the Eastern frontier instead, and let the bolsheviks
make the first move...

...they would never have conquered half of bloody Europe and forced what,
3 generations to live miserably under communism, without the keen help of
their American friends.

But things weren't scripted like that, were they now.
Not sure I trust Adolf at all anymore, from the beginning.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78977561


History that is swept under the rug--for obvious reasons.

The reality is that there were 10 times more cases of rape of French women in 2 months after the American breakout from Normandy than in 4 years of the German occupation.

There was a somewhat prominent case after the war regarding the rape of a 12-year-old German girl. Seven US Army black servicemen were sentenced, by a military court, to death for the rape--they were clearly guilty. Eisenhower pardoned them.

WW2 saw some very significant dehumanizing of the enemy--and it was not all from the "bad guy's".
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76873815


My Mom told me, that as a teenage girl, growing up during
the war, she always switched sides of the street, whenever
she spotted a bunch of our own Finnish front soldiers on
leave. As they were known to be a bit, well, rowdy at times.

Not so with the German soldiers, she said.
Always polite, always correct, always well behaved and friendly.
And therefore well liked by the town girls. That is why so
many half-German war kids were born around here.

chuckle

No, I am not one of them. lol
 Quoting: Accidental Stoner 78473529


I had heard similar from a Hungarian woman; German soldiers were well behaved but when the Russians/Easterners got to her little town it was hell on earth. Oddly, I even have heard this from a couple of Poles.

They did a nice job on that recreation of WWII gun camera footage.

20 years ago there was Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator. It wasn't as detailed as today's games but was great fun. There were 3 WWII pilots that played multiplayer with us younger guys. Two were fighter pilots and one guy flew the Hump into China. I wonder if they are still with us as they were in their 70's back then.

Incorrect. The diameter of a late war prop was around 13’ putting level flight altitude of 20 feet or less.

Look again at the above vid, at around 1.02 he’s throwing rounds at an aircraft IN A HANGER.

As for left and right, the rudder gives you huge movement in both directions when strafing.

Re: new WW2 Footage, war is not a video game, or is it ?
I went to the movie theater when the film Red Tails came out. I was expecting it to be excellent, because George Lucus was the director. Damn...I was disappointed! It really looked very CGI. I'm adding a clip of one of the better combat scenes. This is the best clip I could find on Youtube, that's why the link is written in Japanese. Don't worry, the scene is in English.


And recently the movie Midway came out. I decided to skip this one until it came out on DVD. The previews looked so CGI. The original (1970s) version was great, as it used all authentic combat footage for the battle scenes. I'm linking a clip of both.

ENJOY!

(I'll reply to any comments)

Alright...I have to post one more video!

The movie Pearl Harbor which came out just before September 11th, 2001 (surprise, surprise, surprise) just after a government think tank said, "What we need to implement our plans is nothing less than a new Pearl Harbor.) Wow!

Anyways, back to the point of this thread.

This movie was largely disliked because it turned out that half the movie was a boring love story. Although I must say, the actresses were quite beautiful. So, this movie is basically hated by most war film afficianadoes. That's understandable, but also a damn shame because the battle scenes are excellent. The problem is, the film editors ruined the great combat by cutting it up with stupid shit, and interrupting the flow of the battle.

A few years ago, I decided to make my own edit, and I simply spliced together only the combat and cutting out all the shit. Then, you can see a GREAT combat film. Unfortunately, I cannot show you my edit; but I found a good one, similar to mine on Youtube.

This film shows how well CGI can be done when used correctly. A good mixture of real aircraft, sets, actors, real explosions, and CGI mixed in. And they used expensive, quality CGI. Not some cheap, video game like, cartoon quality, shit. So, this proves it can be done well. It just requires a Producer, Director, and Editor who know how to put it all together to make it work.

I think the film was trying to appeal to too many different people. The love story was to attract women, who typically do not like war movies. But that turns off the men who are the primary audience. Let's just say, they fucked up a potentially great war movie. Possibly one of the best ever.

Check this out...you decide!
