Re: Typhoon and Tempest Aces vs Tanks and Armored Vehicles

Also if I remember right, the postwar assessment was that anti-tank ground attack missions by, primarily Typhoons, even when using rockets were not very effective.
Far fewer tanks were destroyed than initially believed.
Ground attacks were very effective against troops, soft skinned vehicles and at least rather good against semi-armoured ones, but the more armour - less effect.

Cheers
Stig
