Verification Process for Tank Busting Claims

[Boomerang]

mkenny:

Thank you so much for providing those links. The sites they link to certainly provide hard data to illuminate the air vs armour discussion and suggest (not surprisingly) that claims by pilots for tanks destroyed must be treated with caution. No doubt this applies to all the relevant air forces.

Going back to my remark about the Ju 87G being the inspiration for the USAF's A10 Warthog - point taken, the same comment could be applied to the Hs 129. Both the Ju87G and the Hs 129 exemplify the concept of a tank busting aircraft equipped with a high velocity cannon that is continued in the A10.

Cheers
