The Plot of Those Navy Guys and Their PBY's In the midst of World War II, the United States Navy was faced with a daunting task: how to protect its fleet and troops from the ever-growing threat of German and Japanese submarines. To counter this threat, the Navy turned to an unlikely hero - the PBY Catalina, a flying boat that had been in service since the early 1930s. This book tells the story of how the PBY evolved from a simple flying boat into a sophisticated anti-submarine warfare aircraft, and how it helped the Navy win the war at sea. The story begins in the early 1940s, when the world was plunged into chaos and destruction. Germany and Japan, fueled by their own ideologies of racial superiority and imperialism, began to conquer and occupy vast swaths of land, leaving death and devastation in their wake. As the war raged on, the United States found itself drawn into the conflict, and the Navy was tasked with protecting its ships and troops from the lurking danger of enemy submarines. At first, the Navy relied on older biplanes like the P2V, but these planes were proving to be inadequate for the task at hand.
The Plot of Those Navy Guys and Their PBY's В разгар Второй мировой войны перед ВМС США стояла непростая задача: как защитить свой флот и войска от постоянно растущей угрозы немецких и японских подводных лодок. Чтобы противостоять этой угрозе, ВМС обратились к маловероятному герою - PBY Catalina, летающей лодке, состоявшей на вооружении с начала 1930-х годов. В этой книге рассказывается о том, как PBY превратилась из простой летающей лодки в сложный противолодочный боевой самолет, и как это помогло флоту выиграть войну на море. История начинается в начале 1940-х годов, когда мир погрузился в хаос и разрушения. Германия и Япония, подпитываемые собственными идеологиями расового превосходства и империализма, начали завоевывать и оккупировать обширные участки земли, оставляя смерть и разруху после себя. Поскольку война бушевала, США оказались втянутыми в конфликт, и перед ВМС была поставлена задача защитить свои корабли и войска от таящейся опасности вражеских подводных лодок. Сначала флот полагался на старые бипланы, такие как P2V, но эти самолеты оказались неадекватными для поставленной задачи.
The Plot of Those Navy Guys and Their PBY's Nel pieno della Seconda Guerra Mondiale, la Marina degli Stati Uniti ha avuto il difficile compito di proteggere la sua flotta e le sue truppe dalla minaccia sempre crescente dei sottomarini tedeschi e giapponesi. Per far fronte a questa minaccia, la Marina si è rivolta a un personaggio improbabile, il PBY Catalina, una barca volante armata dall'inizio degli annì 30. Questo libro descrive come la PBY sia diventata una semplice barca volante a un sofisticato aereo da combattimento antiuomo, e come ha aiutato la marina a vincere la guerra in mare. La storia inizia all'inizio degli annì 40, quando il mondo è caduto nel caos e nella distruzione. La Germania e il Giappone, alimentati dalle proprie ideologie della supremazia razziale e dell'imperialismo, hanno iniziato a conquistare e occupare ampie aree della terra, lasciando la morte e la distruzione. Poiché la guerra stava imperversando, gli Stati Uniti sono stati coinvolti in un conflitto e la Marina aveva il compito di proteggere le sue navi e le sue truppe dal pericolo dei sottomarini nemici. All'inizio la flotta si affidava ai vecchi biplani, come il P2V, ma questi aerei non erano adeguati al compito.
The Plot of Those Navy Guys and Their PBY's Auf dem Höhepunkt des Zweiten Weltkriegs stand die US Navy vor einer schwierigen Aufgabe: Wie sie ihre Flotte und Truppen vor der ständig wachsenden Bedrohung durch deutsche und japanische U-Boote schützen kann. Um dieser Bedrohung entgegenzuwirken, wandte sich die Marine an einen unwahrscheinlichen Helden - PBY Catalina, ein Flugboot, das seit Anfang der 1930er Jahre im Einsatz war. Dieses Buch beschreibt, wie sich die PBY von einem einfachen fliegenden Boot zu einem komplexen U-Boot-Kampfflugzeug entwickelt hat und wie sie der Flotte geholfen hat, den Krieg auf See zu gewinnen. Die Geschichte beginnt in den frühen 1940er Jahren, als die Welt in Chaos und Zerstörung versank. Deutschland und Japan, angetrieben von ihren eigenen Ideologien der rassischen Überlegenheit und des Imperialismus, begannen, große Landstriche zu erobern und zu besetzen, und hinterließen Tod und Verwüstung. Als der Krieg tobte, gerieten die USA in einen Konflikt, und die Marine hatte die Aufgabe, ihre Schiffe und Truppen vor der lauernden Gefahr feindlicher U-Boote zu schützen. Anfangs verließ sich die Flotte auf alte Doppeldecker wie P2V, aber diese Flugzeuge erwiesen sich für die Aufgabe als unzureichend.
