Fortunately for our heroes, photo-recon (or "recce" if your British) aircraft are usually unarmed. |
Lol, I do know the basic differences between a fighter and a bomber and a fighter-bomber, more or less. It's when specific names get rattled off that I go
because things like "A-10" and "P-47" are meaningless to me.
I'm familiar with the names of certain "famous" planes like a B-17 or a Spitfire, but probably couldn't pick one out of a lineup. Unless the lineup consisted only of B-17s and Spitfires, I think I could manage that.
