Time: Late afternoon
Location: South East China
As a squadron of Mitsubishi A6M Type-0 fighters head home after an uneventful patrol. They are met by a trio of P40 Warhawk, also heading home after a quiet patrol.
The lead and right wing Zeros break right to engage a pair of approaching P40s. While the other pair of Zeros bait the single oncoming P40.
The lead P40, yellow dot, gets hit by two 20mm cannon shells doing major damage, while inflicting heavy damage on the lead Zero.
The trailing P40opens up with its 7.62mm Mgs on the trailing Zero doing significant damage and causing a trail of smoke to belch from the engine.
Zero gold star (5,2)
Zero no dot (2SMK,3)
P40 yellow dot (5)(6)
As the duo's take on each other, the lead Zero hooks right almost causing a 3-way collision.
The lone P40flies past the first Zero and exchanges shots with the trailing Zero.
Zero no dot (1,2,3)
P40 green dot (3,0,0)
The lead P40 does a quick reverse as everyone else scrambles to get in position for a shot.
A successful reverse put the yellow dot P40 in position to get a devastating shot on the pink dot Zero.
Zero pink dot (0,3,EXP)
KILL--P40 yellow dot
With the odds now even planes are trying to get in position for their best shot
With a difference in altitude the orange dot P40 was just out of range of the A6M to pay him back for the 20mm cannon round that caused the green dot P40 to EXPLODE during their exchange of gunfire.
P40 green dot (EXP)
Zero no dot (4,2)
kill--zero no dot
