Скачать или смотреть Why American Fighters Had 6 Hours Combat Range — While Luftwaffe Managed Only 90 Minutes

During World War II, American fighters could stay over enemy territory for up to six hours, striking at will, while Luftwaffe aircraft were forced to retreat after barely 90 minutes in combat. The difference wasn’t just fuel—it was a combination of superior logistics, larger fuel tanks, aerial refueling strategies, and industrial capacity that allowed the U.S. to project airpower across continents with unmatched endurance. German pilots quickly realized that experience and skill alone couldn’t overcome these structural disadvantages.

This video explores why the range gap was decisive: how it shaped strategic bombing, fighter sweeps, and the air war over Europe, and why American aircrews could maintain relentless pressure while German squadrons faced constant attrition. Learn how logistics, engineering, and production turned endurance into a weapon, giving the Allies a critical edge in the skies. Watch now to see the real story behind the air supremacy that helped win the war.
