AAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!
NOT a P-38. NOT a P-51.
Read or re-read the original story. It is about how Galland's brother had just been killed by P-47s (...yes, I said P-47s. Thunderbolts...) and then getting told by Goering that they (....wait for it... T H U N D E R B O L T S) couldn't fly that far.

You can even look it up in John Weal's much-maligned Fw190 Aces of the Western Front (Osprey Aircraft of the Aces 9)....

Trip trap trip trap trip trap trip trap trip trap SLAM!
