spreckair Posted April 1, 2025 Posted April 1, 2025 I guess they called it a "Blitz" for good reason! 1
Billsponge1972 Posted April 1, 2025 Posted April 1, 2025 Ha! Just guessing here but what if a blitz happens to be passing a P-IV just as you swoop down and blow up the truck and the truck, in turn, destroys the P-IV? Ha! 1
LuftManu Posted April 1, 2025 Posted April 1, 2025 Somebody forgot where the brake was in that Opel full of ammunitions... shame a Panzer was downhill. I guess Hans is not getting promoted this year. 😀 1
1CGS LukeFF Posted April 1, 2025 1CGS Posted April 1, 2025 You see this as well sometimes with artillery correction missions - sometimes an ammo truck near an artillery battery will detonate and take out other targets nearby.

Raymond Walsh of the US 406th Fighter Group is silhouetted against the exploding ammunition truck he just strafed, France, 23 Jun 1944 (US National Archives)" https://www.sarahsundin.com/today-in-world-war-ii-history-feb-6-1944/ 3
Dragon1-1 Posted April 1, 2025 Posted April 1, 2025 They can take you out as well, if you don't observe proper strafing discipline and are too low when one of those goes off. 1
