Re: Aircraft pics
At the end of WWII, Japanese veterans gave grudging tribute to the P-38 as their most formidable foe ... The top American aces of the war flew the aircraft with both confidence and a certain affection which sometimes approached fanatical devotion. I think the P-38 was used to ambush and shoot down Yamamoto -- a Japanese hero.
The Germans found the P-38 to be a formidable foe as well, nicknaming it the "Forktailed Devil".
