“It must be said that Germany was conquered by invasion; it did not surrender as a result of bombing.”
― Consolidated B-24 Liberator
― Consolidated B-24 Liberator
“Range considerations were the principal reason for the B-24 replacing B-17s in the Pacific. In Europe the reverse was the case. The Fortress’s better high altitude behaviour found it the more favoured type with USAAF commanders.”
― Consolidated B-24 Liberator
― Consolidated B-24 Liberator
“the B-17 was more suited to the type of operations undertaken by the USAAF, primarily because it had better high altitude performance.”
