o, that's for sure - some of the videos that are out there of the South Pacific B-25 gunships attacking Japanese surface vessels are truly amazing - they put out a serious punch that could really ruin your day.
However, as far as I am aware, the B-25 and A-20 gunships were designed, and primarily employed as, offensive weapons. The Gigant
Waffentragers and the YB-40's were exclusively utilized in a defensive, escort capacity, and, as such, were insufficient to the task.
But I certainly would have hated to be in a Japanese coastal barge and look up and see one of Pappy Gunn's litttle offspring bearing down on me.
