P-51 Mustang muHondo yeKorea

Lieutenant Colonel Robert "Pancho" Pasqualicchio, mukuru we18 FBG, anotenderera Mustang yake inonzi "Ol 'NaD SOB" ("Napalm Drop Son of a Bitch"); Gunyana 1951 Ndege yakaratidzwa (45-11742) yakagadzirwa seP-51D-30-NT uye yaive yekupedzisira Mustang yakagadzirwa neNorth American Aviation.

Mustang, murwi ane mukurumbira uyo akadzika munhoroondo seye akatyora simba reLuftwaffe muna 1944-1945, makore mashoma gare gare muKorea akaita basa risingaongi uye risingakodzeri kwaari sendege yekurwisa. Kubatanidzwa kwake muhondo iyi kunodudzirwa kunyange nhasi - zvisina kukodzera! - zvakanyanya sekuda kuziva pane chinhu chakapesvedzera kana kutopesvedzera mhedzisiro yekukonana uku.

Kumuka kwehondo muKorea yaingova nyaya yenguva, sezvo maAmerican neRussia vakaganhura nyika nepakati muna 1945, vachitungamira kusikwa kwenyika mbiri dzine hutsinye - imwe yemakominisiti kuchamhembe uye capitalist imwe kumaodzanyemba. makore matatu gare gare.

Kunyange zvazvo hondo yekutonga kweKorea Peninsula yakanga isingadzivisiki, uye kurwisana kwakawedzera kwemakore, mauto eSouth Korea akanga asina kugadzirira zvachose. Yakanga isina mota dzakashongedzerwa, uye isingaite mauto emuchadenga - maAmerican aifarira kurasa zvakasara zvendege zvakasiiwa kuFar East mushure meHondo Yenyika II pane kuzviendesa kumubatanidzwa weKorea kuitira kuti "vasakanganisa chiyero chesimba mu nzvimbo”. Zvichakadaro, mauto eDPRK (DPRK) akagamuchira kubva kuRussia, kunyanya, akawanda ematangi uye ndege (kunyanya Yak-9P varwi uye Il-10 kurwisa ndege). Mambakwedza musi waJune 25, 1950, vakayambuka 38th parallel.

"Flying Tigers dzeKorea"

Pakutanga, maAmerica, vadziviriri vakuru veSouth Korea (kunyange zvazvo mauto eUnited Nations akazova nyika makumi maviri neimwe, 21% yemauto yakabva kuUnited States) vakanga vasina kugadzirira kudzinga kurwisa uku.

Zvikamu zveUS Air Force zvakaunganidzwa kuita FEAF (Far East Air Force), i.e. Air Force yeFar East. Kuumbwa uku kwaimbove kwakasimba, kunyangwe zvekutonga kuchiri nemauto matatu eAir Force, kubva muna Chivabvu 31, 1950, aingova nendege mazana mashanu nemakumi mashanu nenhatu dziri kushanda, kusanganisira varwi mazana matatu nemakumi mapfumbamwe nenomwe: 553 F-397 Shooting Star uye 365 twin-hull, mapatya-injini F- 80 ine piston drive. Nheyo yeuto iri yaive 32th uye 82th FBG (Fighter-Bomber Group) uye 8th FIG (Fighter-Interceptor Group) yakamira muJapan uye chikamu chemauto. Vese vari vatatu, pamwe neye49 FBG yakamira muPhilippine, yakashandurwa kubva kuF-35 Mustangs kuenda kuF-18s pakati pe'1949 ne'1950 - mamwe mwedzi ichangotanga Hondo yeKorea.

Kugadziriswazve kweF-80, kunyangwe yaiita senge quantum leap (kubva papiston kuenda kune jet engine), yakaisundira mukudzivirira kwakadzika. Paive nengano pamusoro pehuwandu hweMustang. Munguva yeHondo Yenyika II, varwi verudzi urwu vakabhururuka kubva kuIwo Jima vachipfuura neTokyo - makiromita angangoita 1200 kuenda kure. Zvichakadaro, iyo F-80, nekuda kwekushandisa kwayo kwakawanda kwemafuta, yaive nediki diki - chete anenge 160 km yakachengetwa mumatangi emukati. Kunyange zvazvo ndege yacho yaigona kugadzirirwa matangi maviri ekunze, iyo yakawedzera huwandu hwayo kusvika kumakiromita 360, mukugadzirisa uku yaisakwanisa kutakura mabhomba. Chinhambwe kubva kuzvitsuwa zveJapan zviri pedyo (Kyushu neHonshu) kuenda ku38th parallel, uko kurwisana kwakatanga, kwaive makiromita 580. Uyezve, tactical tsigiro ndege dzaifanira kwete chete kubhururuka mukati, kurwisa uye kubhururuka kure, asi kazhinji kazhinji kutenderera, yakagadzirira kupa rubatsiro kana ichidanwa kubva pasi.

Kukwanisa kuendeswazve kweF-80 kuSouth Korea hakuna kugadzirisa dambudziko. Kurudzi urwu rwendege, nzira dzendege dzakasimbiswa dzakareba mamita 2200. Panguva iyoyo, kunyange muJapan maingova nenhandare ina dzendege dzakadaro. Kwakanga kusina kana mumwe muSouth Korea, uye vamwe vose vakanga vari mumamiriro ezvinhu akashata. Kunyange zvazvo panguva yekugara kwenyika iyi, maJapan akavaka nhandare dzendege gumi, mushure mekupera kweHondo Yenyika II, maKorea, asina kurwa nendege yavo pachavo, vakachengeta maviri chete mumamiriro ekushanda.

Nechikonzero ichi, mushure mekutanga kwehondo, yekutanga F-82s yakaonekwa pamusoro penzvimbo yekurwa - chete varwi veUS Air Force vaivepo panguva iyoyo, huwandu hwayo hwakabvumira mishandirapamwe yakareba kudaro. Vashandi vavo vakaita nhevedzano yendege dzekuongorora kuenda kunzvimbo yeguta guru reSouth Korea, Seoul, rakatorwa nemuvengi muna Chikumi 28. Zvichakadaro, Lee Seung-man, purezidhendi weSouth Korea, aimanikidza mumiriri weUS kuti amurongere ndege dzehondo, achinzi aida maMustangs gumi chete. Mukupindura, maAmerican akabhururutsa vatyairi gumi vekuSouth Korea kuenda kuItazuke Air Base muJapan kunovadzidzisa kubhururuka F-51. Zvisinei, idzo dzakanga dziripo muJapan dzakanga dziri ndege shomanene dzekare dzaishandiswa kukweva nharidzano dzokudzidzira. Kudzidziswa kwevatyairi veKorea, mukati mehurongwa hweFight One chirongwa, kwakapihwa kune vanozvipira kubva ku8th VBR. Vakarairwa nemukuru. Dean Hess, mhare yekushanda pamusoro peFrance muna 1944 pakutonga kweThunderbolt.

Nenguva isipi zvakava pachena kuti maMustang aizoda kupfuura maKorea gumi akadzidziswa. Johnson (ava kunzi Iruma) neTachikawa air base pedyo neTokyo aiva nendege 37 dzerudzi urwu dzakamirira kuraswa, asi dzose dzaida kugadziriswa kukuru. Akawanda se764 Mustangs akashanda muUS National Guard, uye 794 akachengetwa - ivo, zvisinei, vaifanira kuunzwa kubva kuU.SA.

Chiitiko cheHondo Yenyika II chakaratidza kuti ndege dzinoshandiswa nenyeredzi dzakadai seThunderbolt kana F4U Corsair (iyo yekupedzisira yakashandiswa nekubudirira kukuru muKorea neUnited States Navy uye US Marine Corps - verenga zvakawanda pamusoro penyaya iyi). Aviation International" 8/2019). Iyo Mustang, yakashongedzerwa neinjini-yakatonhorera inline injini, yakavhenekerwa nemoto kubva pasi. Edgar Schmued, akagadzira ndege iyi, akanyevera pamusoro pekuishandisa kurwisa zvinangwa zvepasi, achitsanangura kuti yakanga isina tariro zvachose mubasa iri, nokuti imwe 0,3-inch pfuti yepfuti inogona kupinda mu radiator, uye iwe uchave nemaminitsi maviri ekubhururuka. injini isati yamira. Zvechokwadi, apo maMustangs akanga akananga kune zvinangwa zvepasi mumwedzi yekupedzisira yeHondo Yenyika II, vakatambura kurasikirwa kukuru kubva kumoto unorwisa ndege. MuKorea, zvakatonyanya kuipa munyaya iyi, nokuti pano muvengi akanga ajaira kupfura pasi ndege dzinobhururuka. nemaoko madiki, senge submachine pfuti.

Saka sei mabhanan’ana asina kuunzwa? Pakatanga Hondo yeKorea, muUnited States maiva ne1167 47 F-265s, kunyange zvazvo akawanda ezvikwata zvaishingaira mubasa neNational Guard aisanganisira 51 chete. Chisarudzo chekushandisa F-51 chakanga chakonzerwa nokuti mauto akamira panguva iyoyo kuFar East, varwi veUS Air Force vakashandisa maMustangs munguva isati yashandurwa kuita jets (mamwe mauto akatochengeta muenzaniso mumwechete wezvinangwa zvekutaurirana). Naizvozvo, vaiziva magadzirisirwo azvo, uye vaiziva maitirwo azvo. Mukuwedzera, mamwe maF-XNUMX akabviswa akanga achiri muJapan, uye pakanga pasina mabhanan'ana zvachose - uye nguva yakanga ichipera.

Nguva pfupi mushure mekutanga kwechirongwa cheBout One, sarudzo yakaitwa yekuchinjisa kudzidziswa kwevatyairi veKorea kunyika yavo. Zuva iroro, masikati eJune 29, General MacArthur akanga aripowo kuti aite musangano neMutungamiri Lee muSuwon. Ichangomhara, nhandare yendege yakarwiswa nendege yekuNorth Korea. General naPresident vakabuda panze kuti vaone kuti chii chaitora nzvimbo. Zvinotoshamisa ndezvokuti, panguva iyoyo maMustang mana, akaedzwa nevarayiridzi veAmerica, akasvika. Vatyairi vavo vendege vakabva vadzinga muvengi. 2 / l. Orrin Fox akapfura ndege mbiri dzekurwisa Il-10. Richard Burns ega. Lieutenant Harry Sandlin akataura nezvemurwi weLa-7. Mutungamiriri akafara Rhee, achitaura nezvevazvipiri veAmerica vakarwa muhondo yapfuura yeBurma neChina, vakavadaidza kuti "mangwe anobhururuka eKorea."

Manheru ezuva rimwe chetero (Chikumi 29), Mutungamiriri weAustralia akabvuma kuita maMustangs e77 Squadron. Yakanga iri yekupedzisira RAAF varwi vehondo yakasara muJapan mushure mekupera kweHondo Yenyika II. Yakanga yakarairwa neMutungamiriri weAir Force Louis Spence, uyo pakupera kwa1941/42, achibhururuka Kittyhawks ne3rd Squadron RAAF, akaita 99 sorties pamusoro peNorth Africa uye akapfura ndege mbiri. Akazoraira Spitfire Squadron (452 ​​​​Squadron RAAF) muPacific.

MaAustralia akatanga kushanda musi wa 2 Chikunguru 1950 kubva panzvimbo yavo paIwakuni pedyo neHiroshima, vachiperekedza mabhomba eUS Air Force. Vakatanga kuperekedza B-26 Invaders kuenda kuSeoul, iyo yakanga yakananga mabhiriji pamusoro peRwizi rweHangang. Vari munzira, maAustralia aifanira kunzvenga kutendeuka kwakasimba kubva kumutsara wekurwisa weAmerican F-80s, uyo akavafungira muvengi. Vakabva vaperekedza Yonpo Superfortece B-29s. Mangwana acho (Chikunguru 3) vakanzi varwise munzvimbo iri pakati peSuwon nePyeongtaek. V/Cm Spence akabvunza ruzivo rwekuti muvengi akanga aenda kure kumaodzanyemba. Zvisinei, akavimbiswa kuti chinangwa chakanga chazivikanwa nenzira yakarurama. Muchokwadi, maMustangs eAustralia akarwisa masoja eSouth Korea, achiuraya makumi maviri nemapfumbamwe uye akakuvadza vamwe vazhinji. Kurasikirwa kwekutanga kwechikwata kwakaitika musi waChikunguru 29, apo Mutevedzeri weMutungamiriri weChikwata Sajeni Graham Strout akaurayiwa nemoto wedziviriro yemhepo panguva yekurwiswa pachivanze cheMarshalling paSamchek.

Zvombo zve "Mustangs" 127-mm HVAR zvombo. Kunyange zvazvo zvombo zveNorth Korean T-34/85 matangi akanga asingamiri kwavari, akashanda uye aishandiswa zvakanyanya kurwisana nemimwe michina uye nzvimbo dzekudzivirira ndege dzehondo.

Excellent improvisation

Zvichakadaro, musi waChikunguru 3, vatyairi veFight One chirongwa - gumi vekuAmerican (varayiridzi) nevatanhatu vekuSouth Korean - vakatanga kurwisa kurwisa kubva kunhandare yendege muDaegu (K-2). Kurwisa kwavo kwekutanga kwakanangana nemakoramu anotungamira eDPRK 4th Mechanized Division payakakwira kubva kuYongdeungpo yakananga kuSuwon. Zuva rakatevera (Chikunguru 4) mudunhu reAnyang, kumaodzanyemba kweSeoul, vakarwisa mbiru yematangi T-34/85 nemimwe midziyo. Colonel Keun-Sok Lee akafa mukurwiswa, zvichida akapfurwa nemoto unorwisa ndege, kunyange maererano neimwe shanduro yezviitiko, haana kukwanisa kubvisa F-51 yake kunze kwekubhururuka uye ndokuputsika. Chero zvazvingava, akanga ari mutyairi wekutanga weMustang kuwira muHondo yeKorea. Sezvineiwo, panguva yeHondo Yenyika II, Lee, ipapo sajeni, akarwa (pasi pezita rainzi Aoki Akira) muJapan Air Force, achibhururuka Ki-27 Nate fighters ne77th Sentai. Munguva yehondo yemusi wa25 Zvita 1941 pamusoro peRangoon (zvinoshamisa, ne "Flying Tigers"), akapfurwa ndokubatwa.

Nguva pfupi yapfuura, sarudzo yakaitwa yekubvisa kwechinguva vatyairi veKorea kubva kusimba rehondo uye kuvabvumira kuti vaenderere mberi nekudzidziswa kwavo. Nokuda kweizvi, vakasiiwa neMustangs matanhatu uye Maj. Hess uye mukuru. Milton Bellovin seVadzidzisi. Muhondo, vakatsiviwa nevazvipiri kubva ku18 FBG (kunyanya kubva kune imwechete squadron - ye12 FBS), iyo yakamira muPhilippine. Boka rinozivikanwa se "Dallas Squadron" uye vatyairi vendege vaisvika mazana matatu nemakumi matatu nemasere, kusanganisira 338 mapurisa. Yakarairwa naKaputeni Harry Moreland, uyo panguva yeHondo Yenyika Yechipiri (achishanda mu36 FG) akabhururuka 27 Thunderbolt sorties pamusoro peItari neFrance. Boka racho rakasvika muJapan muna Chikunguru 150 ndokuenda kuDaegu mazuva mashoma gare gare, uko raisanganisira vaimbova varairidzi veBout One (kunze kwaHess naBellovin).

Kaputeni wemauto Morelanda akagamuchira zita rekuti 51. FS (P) - Tsamba "P" (Provisional) yaireva kuvandudzwa kwayo, kwechinguvana. Akatanga kurwa musi waChikunguru 15, aine ndege 16 chete dziri kushanda. Basa rekutanga rechikwata raive rekuparadza ngoro dzepfuti dzenjanji dzakasiiwa kuDaejeon nevaAmerican vanokurumidza kudzoka. Captain Moreland, mutungamiri wechikwata, akayeuka rimwe remazuva ake ekutanga muKorea:

Takabhururuka nendege mbiri munzira kubva kuSeoul kuenda kuDaejeon nechinangwa chekurwisa zvese zvakaputirwa mumadhiramu edu. Takatanga kunanga marori maviri okuNorth Korea, ayo takapfura nawo ndokuzorova napalm.

Mumigwagwa yaiva pedyo maiva nemotokari dzakawanda. Nguva diki diki tadzokera kumaodzanyemba, ndakaona huswa hombe pakati pemunda netsoka dzaienda kwairi. Ndakabhururuka pamusoro paro ndikaona kuti raiva tanki rakavharika. Sezvo panguva iyoyo takanga tashandisa napalm yose, takasarudza kuona kana pfuti dzedu dzehafu-inch dzaigona kuita chimwe chinhu. Mabara haana kukwanisa kupinda muchombo, asi akapisa huswa. Izvi pazvaiitika, takabhururuka kakawanda pamusoro pehuswa kuitira kuti tibatidze moto nemhepo. Murazvo wakafashaira mutangi - patakatenderera pamusoro pawo, wakangoerekana waputika. Mumwe mutyairi wendege akati, "Kana wakapfura danda reuswa seizvi uye rikapfutidza, waiziva kuti kune zvakawanda kune iyo kupfuura uswa."

Mutyairi wendege wekutanga kufa aive 2/Lt W. Bille Crabtree, akaputira mabhomba ake musi wa25 Chikunguru achirwisa chinangwa kuGwangju. Pakupera kwemwedzi, Nhamba 51 Squadron (P) yakanga yarasa maMustangs gumi. Munguva iyi, nekuda kwemamiriro ezvinhu anoshamisa kumberi, akarwisa mbiru dzevavengi kunyange usiku, kunyange zvazvo F-51 yakanga isina kumukodzera zvachose - moto wepfuti yemoto uye rocket moto wakapofumadza vatyairi.

Muna Nyamavhuvhu, Moreland Squadron ndiyo yaive yekutanga muKorea kuunza 6,5-inch (165 mm) ATAR anti-tank missile ine HEAT warhead. Iwo 5-inch (127 mm) HVAR mateko aiwanzoita kuti tangi isafambe, ichipwanya makwara. Napalm, yakatakurwa mumatangi epasi, yakaramba iri chombo chine ngozi cheMustangs kusvika pakupera kwehondo. Kunyange kana mutyairi wendege asina kurova chinangwa chakananga, rabha muT-34/85 makwara aiwanzobata moto kubva pakuputika kwemoto uye tangi yese yakabata moto. Napalm ndiyo chete chombo chaityiwa nemasoja ekuNorth Korea. Pavaipfurwa kana kuti kubhombwa, kunyange vaya vakanga vakapakata pfuti dzevacheche vairara nemanhede vachiridza pfuti mudenga.

Capt Marvin Wallace wemakore makumi matatu nemashanu Izvi zvichida zvakakonzerwa nekuti peturu yakakora mujeri yaipisa zvakanyanya, ichisveta okisijeni yese kubva mumhepo. Pamusoro pezvo, yakabudisa utsi hwakawanda hunokachidza.

Pakutanga, vatyairi veMustang vakarwisa zvibodzwa zvavainge vasangana nazvo chete, vachishanda mumamiriro ezvinhu akaoma zvikuru - panzvimbo yakaderera yemakore, munzvimbo ine makomo, vachitungamirwa nekuverenga kambasi uye neruzivo rwavo (muunganidzwa wakapfuma wemamepu nemifananidzo yemuchadenga yakarasika apo maAmerican akadzokera kubva kuKorea. muna 1949). Kubudirira kwemabasa avo kwakawedzera zvakanyanya kubva apo mauto eAmerica akadzidzirazve hunyanzvi hwekunangwa neredhiyo, izvo zvaiita kunge zvakakanganwika mushure meHondo Yenyika Yechipiri.

Nekuda kwemusangano wakaitwa muna Chikunguru 7 muTokyo, mahofisi makuru eFEAF akafunga kugadzirira zvakare zvikwata zvitanhatu zveF-80 neF-51s, sezvo zvekupedzisira zviripo. Nhamba yeMustangs yakagadziriswa muJapan yakaita kuti zvikwanisike kuvashongedza ne40 FIS kubva ku35th detachment. Chikwata chakagamuchira Mustangs musi waChikunguru 10, uye mazuva mashanu gare gare akatanga kushanda kubva kuPohang kumhenderekedzo yekumabvazuva kweKorea, pakangopera mauto einjiniya apedza kuisa simbi perforated PSP mats panhandare yendege yekare yeJapan, yakazosarudzwa K. -3. . Uku kukurumidza kwakatsanangurwa nemamiriro ezvinhu pasi - mauto eUN, akasundidzirwa kuPusan ​​​​(chiteshi chikuru cheSouth Korea) muTsushima Strait, akadzokera kumashure.

Sezvineiwo, yekutanga yekusimbisa yekune dzimwe nyika yakasvika nekukurumidza. Dzakaunzwa nemutakuri wendege USS Boxer, iyo yakatora 145 Mustangs (79 kubva kuNational Guard units uye 66 kubva kudzimba dzeMcClelland Air Force Base) uye 70 vatyairi vakadzidziswa. Ngarava yakafamba kubva kuAlameda, California muna Chikunguru 14 ndokuvaendesa kuYokosuki, Japan muna Chikunguru 23 munguva yerekodhi yemazuva masere nemaawa manomwe.

Kuendesa uku kwakashandiswa zvakanyanya kuzadza mapoka ese ari maviri muKorea - iyo 51st FS(P) uye makumi mana FIS - kune yenguva dzose ngarava makumi maviri neshanu. Mushure mezvo, iyo 40th FBS yakashongedzerwa zvakare, iyo, pamwe chete nevashandi ve25 FBG, chikamu chevabereki, vakabva kuPhilippines kuenda kuJapan. Dare remauto rakatanga kusimuka paMustangs muna Nyamavhuvhu 67 kubva pachigadziko cheAshiya pachitsuwa cheKyushu. Mazuva maviri gare gare, mahofisi makuru akatamira kuTaeg. Ikoko akatora hutongi hwe18st FS(P), iyo yakashanda yakazvimirira, ndokuzochinja zita rayo kuita yechigumi nembiri FBS uye nekusaziva akagadza mukuru wemauto ane chinzvimbo chemukuru (Kaputeni Moreland aifanira kugutsikana nechinzvimbo chemukuru wemauto) . Pakanga pasina nzvimbo yeboka rechipiri muDhaegu, naizvozvo boka rechimakumi matanhatu nenomwe rakaramba riri muAshiya.

Kubva munaJuly 30, 1950, mauto eFEAF akanga ane 264 Mustangs pazvavaiva nazvo, kunyange zvazvo vasiri vose vaishanda zvizere. Zvinonyatsozivikanwa kuti vatyairi vendege vakaita mhirizhonga mundege dzaive dzisina zvekushandisa pabhodhi.

Dambudziko rakasiyana raive dambudziko rehunyanzvi hweF-51s dzakatengwa kubva mhiri kwemakungwa. Paiva nekutenda muzvikwata zvezvikwata zvemauto kuti zvikamu zveNational Guard, izvo zvaifanira kupa ndege yavo kune zvido zvehondo inoenderera mberi, zvakabvisa avo vane ruzivo rwakakura (tisingaverengi chokwadi chokuti Mustangs haana. yakabudiswa kubva muna 1945, saka zvikamu zvose zviripo, kunyange zvitsva zvachose, izvo zvisati zvamboshandiswa, zvaive "yekare"). Imwe nzira kana imwe, kukanganisa uye kukundikana, kunyanya injini, yakazova chimwe chezvikonzero zvikuru zvekuwanda kwekurasikirwa pakati peF-51 vatyairi pamusoro peKorea.

Kutanga kudzokera shure

Kurwira kunonzi kuBusan foothold kwaityisa zvisingaite. Mangwanani aNyamavhuvhu 5, mutungamiriri we67th FPS, Major S. Louis Sebil, akatungamira imba yevarindi yevaMustang vatatu mukurwiswa kwekoramu yakagadzirwa iri pedyo nemusha weHamchang. Mota dzaingoyambuka Rwizi rweNaktong, dzakananga kubhiriji kwaibva mauto eDPRK achisimudzira kurwisa Taegu. Ndege yaSebill yanga yakapakatira maroketi matanhatu nemabhomba maviri e227 kg. Pakutanga kusvika kune chinangwa, rimwe remabhomba rakanamira pane ejector uye mutyairi wendege, achiedza kudzora iyo inokatyamadza F-51, kwechinguva yakave yakareruka kunangwa yemoto kubva pasi. Mushure mekukuvadzwa, akaudza mapapiro ake nezveronda, zvichida raiuraya. Mushure mekuvanyengetedza kuti vaedze kusvika kuDaegu, akapindura, "Handigoni kuita izvozvo." Ndocheuka nditore mwana wehure. Yakabva yanyura yakananga pambiru yevavengi, yakapfura maroketi, yakavhura pfuti yemuchina, ichibva yarovera mutakuri wevarwi, zvikaita kuti bhomba rakanamira pasi pebapiro riputike. Zvekuita izvi Mei. Sebilla akazofa akapihwa Menduru yeKukudzwa.

Nguva pfupi pashure pacho, nhandare yendege muDaegu (K-2) yakanga iri pedyo zvikuru nemutsetse wepamberi, uye musi waAugust 8, mahofisi makuru e18 FBG, pamwe chete ne12 FBG, yakamanikidzwa kuenda kuAshiya base. Pazuva rimwe chetero, chikwata chechipiri che3 FPG, 35th FIS, chakashanyira Pohang (K-39), vachitora maMustangs avo zuva rakapfuura. MuPohang, vakabatana ne40 FIS yakamira ipapo, asi zvakare kwete kwenguva refu. Vashandi vepasi, vaishandira ndege yacho masikati, vaifanira kudzivirira kurwiswa nemagandanga aiedza kupaza munhandare usiku. Pakupedzisira, muna Nyamavhuvhu 13, muvengi akamanikidza iyo yose 35th FIG kuti ibve kuburikidza neTsushima Strait kuenda kuTsuiki.

Yechisere FBG yaive yekupedzisira yeMustangs kuchinja giya pasina kurasikirwa nebasa rezuva. Mangwanani aNyamavhuvhu 8, vatyairi vezvikwata zviviri zvakaumbwa - 11th uye 35th FBS - vakasimuka kubva Itazuke kune yekutanga F-36 sortie pamusoro peKorea uye pakupedzisira vakamhara muTsuiki, kwavanga vari kubva ipapo. Pazuva iro, Kaputeni Charles Brown we51 FBS akanangana neNorth Korea T-36/34. Akapindura nemoto uye nemazvo. Hazvizivikanwe kana raive gomba remushonga, nekuti vashandi veakarwiswa matangi emauto eKRDL akavhura machira ese ndokupfura mumwe nemumwe kubva pfuti yemuchina! Chero zvazvingava, mutungamiri. Brown aive nerukudzo rwakaipa rwekuva pamwe mutyairi ega muhondo iyi akapfurwa pasi netangi (kana vashandi vayo).

Nenzira, vatyairi vendege vaisanyanya kufarira nezvekugadzirisa zvakare muF-51. Sezvo munyori wezvakaitika kare we8th VBR akacherechedza, vazhinji vavo vakaona nemaziso avo muhondo yapfuura nei Mustang yakakundikana se ndege iri pedyo nekutsigira mauto epasi. Havana kufara kuratidzira zvakare nemari yavo.

Pakazosvika pakati paNyamavhuvhu 1950, zvikwata zvese zveF-51 zvakadzokera kuJapan: 18th FBG (12th uye 67th FBS) muAsia, Kyushu, iyo 35th FIG (39th uye 40th FIS) uye yechisere FBG. 8th FBS) panzvimbo iri padyo yeTsuiki. MaAustralia kubva kuNo. 35 Squadron vakanga vachiri kugara zvachose paIwakuni pachitsuwa cheHonshu, kubva kuDaegu Airport (K-36) chete kuti vagadziriswe zvakare uye kuwedzera mafuta. Chete chikoro chendege cheAsi Imwe chirongwa pasi pekuraira kwemukuru. Hessa, kubva kuDaeeg kuenda kuSacheon Airport (K-77), wozoenda kuJinhae (K-2). Sechikamu chekudzidziswa, Hess akaendesa vadzidzi vake kumitsetse yepamberi kuitira kuti vavanonamata navo vaone ndege dzine mamaka ekuSouth Korea, izvo zvakawedzera hunhu hwavo.
