It's obviously the P-47. The bomber mafia altered the records.

I fail to see how 4 P-47s were statistically significant.

Crash and burn.
You're not going to like my pike joke either.

They certainly would have been more successful if they were allowed to use the brisBANE tank.
In any case, if the Bomber Mafia had altered the record it would doubless show that it would take 1,000s of tons of bombs to destroy a site!
btw I posted 3 comments for the video. One seems to have gone missing - the one that says that it is a myth that RAF BC only bombed cities and also that the Eighth never bombed cities.

Watched this earlier today, I'm thinking four sorties prove more than five or six hundred, sure.
I think there's a "P-47 could have burnt Hamburg too" episode coming down the line. I mean, just drop those big ferry tanks and then strafe, why not?

Greg replied to that comment, so it must be there somewhere.
Says that he doesn't think he ever said that.

Trying to compare strategic level bombing to tactical level bombing to tactical fighter-bombing attacks is a fool's errand. The technologies, tactics, target types, and risks between each are completely different.

And Greg is just the fool to do it!
