Re: Navy F4F vs Zero

Hello CJE
Type 96 was A5M Claude so Type 97 was probably something which USN expected to be the next IJN fighter but IMHO the info on Zero which filtered down to USN fighter pilots was not something very trustworthy even if IIRC USN had got reports on Zero from China but had lost them somewhere in the system. I'll check the book tonight.
