When one P-38 Lightning pilot faced sixty-four Japanese fighters over Bougainville — and came home with empty guns — history witnessed one of the most impossible dogfights of World War II. This is the true story of Rex Barber and the American aircraft that changed the sky forever.
Through eyewitness accounts, declassified mission reports, and cinematic storytelling, this episode dives deep into the day a single pilot rewrote air combat itself. From the engineering genius of Lockheed’s Kelly Johnson to the math of destruction that buried Japan’s air power, this is not just about a fighter plane — it’s about the nation that built it, the men who flew it, and the sky that still remembers.
Discover how the P-38 Lightning became Japan’s nightmare: twin engines, turbo-superchargers, and six deadly guns that turned the Pacific into America’s battlefield. Follow its evolution from prototype to legend — through the story of the pilot who fought sixty-four to one, and survived.
Watch till the end for the emotional aftermath — when pilots returned home, looked back at the machine that saved them, and realized the truth:
Victory wasn’t in how many they killed, but how many they brought home.
