00:01.240 --> 00:02.240
mm hmm .

00:06.140 --> 00:08.830
The Japanese zero . Just the aircraft

00:08.830 --> 00:11.370
and the pilots flying them and had a

00:11.380 --> 00:15.180
great advantage . zero was a phenomenal ,

00:15.190 --> 00:18.260
low altitude fighter aircraft . It had

00:18.270 --> 00:20.159
excellent maneuverability and was

00:20.159 --> 00:22.910
extremely responsive and it was more

00:22.910 --> 00:24.854
than a match for anything that the

00:24.854 --> 00:27.132
Western Allies could feel at that time .

00:28.440 --> 00:30.720
They probably felt as underdogs at the

00:30.730 --> 00:33.150
time . I'm sure sort of that , that

00:33.160 --> 00:35.382
feeling of being the underdog can a lot

00:35.382 --> 00:38.380
of times fuel people to do things that ,

00:38.840 --> 00:41.300
you know , maybe they wanted to in

00:41.300 --> 00:44.830
normal circumstances . It was that

00:44.840 --> 00:47.490
rage . And I think from what had

00:47.490 --> 00:49.490
happened at Pearl Harbor definitely

00:49.490 --> 00:51.560
galvanized a lot of these guys .
