Fight starts at around 45 min into the video. So just hit there to skip all the American propaganda bullshit.
Can say these pilots in the B17's had balls of steel.

hmmm.. damm
Fantastic footage!
Tough bastards..... There's another great history documentary on Netflix called : History in HD: The Last Bomb. Despite the name it has nothing to do with the atomic strikes, but documents the organization and execution of large long range B29 raids on Tokyo and the logistics of P51 squadrons joining them as escort from islands closer to Japan. Really cool footage....gives some insight into the complexity of the logistics/planning behind large scale air operations. Highly recommended.
