What part of a B-17 did German Fighters target to ensure bomber destruction - Deep Dive Review

Follow
WWII US Bombers

The video will address WWII operational data which showed the engines were the most vital part of a bomber and should be the target of German bomber interceptors. Data shows 2/3 of bomber shot down by fighters had fires. 50% of all bomber fires were in the engine, 15% in the fuel tanks, and 10% the hydraulic system. German ammo belts mixes were optimized to take advantage of the bomber’s engine and fuel tank’s vulnerability.
