Re: FM-2s vs. Tonys over Kavieng, 20/3/44
John,
Just to clarify: 12 Zekes were claimed over Kavieng on 1 January by VF18 (Bunker Hill) and VF30 (Monterey). The Tony, one of two seen, was intercepted about 20 miles from the Task Group. It appeared to be painted black and had underwing fuel tanks. When attacked it attempted to loop back on to the tail of the attacker, which makes it unlikely to have been a Judy. Would the latter have tried mixing it in a dogfight?
