Pacific Thunder: The US Navy's Central Pacific Campaign, August 1943-October 1944

On 27 October 1942, four 'Long Lance' torpedoes fired by the Japanese destroyers Makigumo and Akigumo exploded in the hull of the aircraft carrier USS Hornet (CV-8).

Hasegawa HAJT17 1:48 Scale Mitsubishi A6M3 Zero Fighter T Model Kit

The A6M3 Type 22 was actually built after the clipped wing Type 32. Thanks to the additional power of the sake 21 engine over the previous Sakae 12, the sake 21 did not have the same fuel consumption as the earlier version. To add to that, the new engine was longer so the forward fuselage fuel tank had to be reduced in size. This meant that the Type 32 was decidedly down on range. Thanks to the clipped wing, it also did not have the ceiling or Rate of climb of the earlier A6M2 Type 21, though it was faster and did have a greater roll Rate. To counter that, the Type 22 reinstated the wing exten... [Read More]

Fighters Over the Fleet: Naval Air Defence from Biplanes to the Cold War

This is an account of the evolution of naval fighters for fleet air defense and the parallel evolution of the ships operating and controlling them, concentrating on the three main exponents of carrier warfare, the Royal Navy, the US Navy, and the Imperial Japanese Navy. It describes the earliest efforts from the 1920s but it was not until radar allowed the direction of fighters that organized air defense became possible. Thus major naval-air battles of the Second World War like Midway, the Pedestal convoy, the Philippine Sea and Okinawa are portrayed as tests of the new technology. This was ... [Read More]
