摘要

Grumman F4F Wildcat ace Lt Cdr John S Thach was one of the primary exponents of the robust fighter during World War Two. In tactics devised by Thach - thereafter known as the Thach Weave -Wildcat pilots were able to hold their own against attacks by the more manoeuvrable Mitsubishi A6M 'Zero'. Serving in the US Navy, he was given command of fighter unit VF-3 in the early 1940s. Having operated from USS Lexington in the early part of the war, he and his squadron were transferred to USS Yorktown in June 1942 and participated in the Battle of Midway. On June 4, he had the opportunity to put the Thach Weave into practice for the first time, when six VF-3 Hellcats were targeted by 15 to 20 A6Ms.
