BATTLE OF MIDWAY
THE BATTLE OF MIDWAY, MISSION ONE
_________________________________
TURN ONE :
The Japanese launch an air Raid on Midway Airfield...
While they approach the Island, One F4F Wildcat and One F2A Buffalo are send to intercept..
Fortune does not smile at the Japanese Bombers.. their escort fighter has lost them in the clouds and is LATE..
The Wildcat immediately takes his chance on the tailing Val...
The attack is incredibly successful, and he manages to damage the bomber...
The Buffalo also benefits from the abscence of the escort Zero, and makes a quick pass on the Val..
Which goes down in flames...
At the beginning of TURN TWO, the escort Zero arrives on the scene, ready for payback while the flaming Val goes down towards the sharks infected waters..
The Zeke maneuvers on the Wildcat but does not get a clear shot..
Seeing his mate in trouble, the Buffalo Puts himself on the Japanese's Six O' Clock.. but cannot hit..
The Wildcat then tries to shake his pursuer without success..
On TURN THREE, Pressing his advantage, the Japanese pilot presses the trigger on the Wildcat...
Which leaves the fight...
TURN FOUR ; The Zeke was so concentrated on his target that he forgot about his tailing oponent...
Which proves to be a fatal mistake.. The buffalo opens fire and a rain of lead rushes on the Japanese fighter..
The Buffalo immediately turns towards the bombers, but we are already on TURN FIVE..
The pilot pushes the throttles and fires a burst at the tailing bomber.. not enough for a kill...
This now TURN SIX (Last turn), The Buffalo pilot cannot get a shot at the Bombers and watches them helplessly making their bombing run while the FLAK of the Island tries to shoot the bombers down..
The Bombers receive little damage and successfully cratter the runway and the installations...
Target destroyed ! The Japanese have to press on... Next Target ; USS YORKTOWN..
COMING SOON ! A Japanese ACE facing an American Ace...
What will come out of this attack ?
Dont miss it :)
END OF MISSION ONE...
