Ki.46 Interception


This mission recreates the interception and destruction of a Ki.46 in the early morning of Jan. 10th 1942 by two Brewster Buffalos of 243 Sqn, New Zealanders Sgts. Bert Wipiti and Charles Kronk.

Guided to the approacing bandit by radar and using a height advantage, they managed to slow the Dinah, eliminating its speed adavatage over the Buffalos, then shot it down over Johore. It was 243 Sqn's first kill.

Can you do the same?
