A group of Fw190A-3 and Fw190A-4
fighters as they climb out over Theville to intercept an incoming
armada of B-17 Fortresses en-route to bomb the submarine pens
at Lorient. Pilots in their high visibility cockpits gun their
massive BMW radial engines as they power upwards through the
turbulent air. Within minutes drop tanks will be jettisoned and
battle joined. Spoiling for a fight, they present the B-17s with
an awesome reception committee.
