When a Maverick Engineer Put a "Backwards Propeller" on a B-25 Mitchell Bomber, Japanese Sailors Called It "The Devil Gun" 🔥✈️
In 1943, Captain Paul "Pappy" Gunn made an unauthorized modification to a B-25 Mitchell bomber that changed everything. By installing a counter-rotating propeller with a 75mm nose cannon, he accidentally created the fastest, deadliest anti-shipping weapon in the Pacific Theater. The result? A 35 mph speed boost, 16 Japanese vessels sunk in 72 hours, and Zero fighters that couldn't catch him. 💥
Japanese survivors reported being attacked by a plane that "flew backwards" and defied physics. The US Army Air Force officially banned the modification... but Pacific squadrons secretly adopted it anyway. This is the untold story of the B-25 that became a legend and struck fear into the hearts of enemy sailors across the Pacific. 🌊⚓
