1943 Usaaf facts
While investigating facts about 1943 Usaaf, I found out little known, but curios details like:
In 1943, the USAAF planned to use a high-speed rocket-powered flying-wing aircraft to quite literally ram enemy aircraft out of the sky; aptly nicknamed the ‘Flying Ram’. It was scrapped after its maiden flight in 1945, where the aircraft lost control and crashed, killing the test pilot.
In 1943 a USAAF plane was lost over Libya and not found until 1958.
In my opinion, it is useful to put together a list of the most interesting details from trusted sources that I've come across. Here are 3 of the best facts about 1943 Usaaf I managed to collect.
