... but this is incredible! Hitting a chimney, breaking a wing off and making it home? I don't think that another WW II fighter would have survived that. Just goes to show how that monstrously powerful Thunderbolt engine - once flying - could keep anything up in the air, never mind the aerodynamics.
Knocking out three Tiger tanks one one sortie ain't too bad either, that was a lot of damage to the
Reich. In today's money, that was 4 million US-Dollars damage right then and there (in the case of the even more costly Tiger II/
Königstiger - it's likely that the later models were hit given the date of the attack in early 1945 - a whopping 15 million US-$ !!!); Tiger tanks were incredibly costly to produce (and kept getting more expensive under the dearth of German wartime resouces) and required no less than 300.000 man hours per tank.
