PN,
if interdicting the runway was the mission and that weapons planning required between 25 and 50 aircraft
Are you saying the Mission to render the airfield unusable was originally determined to need 25-50 bomber aircraft on target to be successful....but as it turned out.... a single Bomber on three nights accomplished what was set forth as being the Task during the initial planning process?
Or....despite the initial planners thinking it would take the 25-50 aircraft over the target....and after the very limited success of the three BB raids using a single aircraft....a decision was made for any number of reasons that no more raids were necessary?
What was the actual reasons for ending the raids after on three nights and the single bomb hit on the runway?
