America’s pilots were outclassed, outmaneuvered, and outgunned by the legendary Japanese A6M Zero. For months, U.S. fighters simply couldn’t match its turning ability, its climb rate, or its deadly agility. But everything changed when one pilot—Jimmy Thatch—used a handful of matchsticks to make a discovery that would turn the Pacific air war upside down.
This video reveals the incredible true story of how the Thatch Weave was invented, how a simple tabletop demonstration exposed the Zero’s biggest weakness, and how American pilots used that tactic to survive the once-unstoppable Japanese fighter.
From early defeats in the Pacific to the moment the weave was tested in real combat at Midway, this is the story of the tactic that saved lives, changed dogfighting forever, and helped turn the tide of the war.
If you love WWII aviation, real combat stories, and brilliant battlefield innovation, this is one you don’t want to miss.
