This Cub will have claws.

One reason I chose "Rosie The Rocketer" was the idea of a Piper Cub with six bazookas attached. The pilot, Major Charles Carpenter, got tired of observing the war, and wanted to participate. I believe he is credited with killing a few tanks and armored vehicles. This wasn't condoned by the higher brass. They wanted the observer planes to work in conjunction with the artillery. Freelancing was discouraged. But Major Carpenter convinced them he could do both.

One of the weirder dog fights of WW2 was when a Piper Cub engaged a Feisler Storch in a running battle, each shooting at the other with their side arms! The Cub managed to force down the Storch with his Colt 45.
