MUSTANGS IN THE BATTLE OF NORMANDY
Once SHAEF (Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force) assumed operational control of all air forces in England at the beginning of April 1944, Air Chief Marshal Tedder, second in command of the invasion force to General Eisenhower, placed himself in overall command of air operations. He directed Eighth Air Force to concentrate its missions against the rail transportation system in Germany, Holland, Belgium and France in the weeks leading up to D-Day.

The Defense of Israel
During the pre-dawn hours of April 13, Iran launched its first-ever direct attack on Israel. The attack was in response to a suspected Israeli strike on an Iranian consular building in Syria two weeks prior which killed two Iranian generals and five other officers. For those following current events, it is of little surprise that regional tensions between Israel and Iran reached a boiling point this spring in the aftermath of the October 7th, 2023 Hamas attack on Israel.

Airwar in Ukraine - Help is Finally on the Way
The most significant news of the observed period (from April 1 to April 30) was the approval of a large package of American military aid for Ukraine. The Republican Party had been blocking it in the US Congress for domestic political reasons since the fall. This delay put the Ukrainian armed forces into a difficult situation, unnecessarily losing territory and soldiers. Civilian suffering due to Russian air raids on Ukrainian cities was also unnecessary.

The Japanese company Echo Tech started supplying ultrasonic cutter ZO series to the hobby market in 2001. In another 5 years, its second generation came, and then the third in 2012. However, they were still products intended for the Japanese market. It was only in 2016 that the production of the current ZO-91 model, which is sold worldwide, began. As a next step, the new ZO-95 model was put on sale in 2020.

Swastikas and Red Stars
History is not an exact science, knowledge about things and events of the past is not only added to and refined, but its perception may change in relation to the evolution of society as a whole. The chroniclers of ancient times often wrote along the monarch desire, otherwise they risked their neck.
