A Prop(eller) Weapon

"With no other choice, he came up behind the Nick and sliced into the plane’s rudder with his Corsairs propeller.

 

As daring as this initial contact had been, it wasn’t enough to completely bring the Nick down. Robert hit the Nick with his propeller two more times, slicing into the plane’s tail and completely severing the rudder and the right stabilizer, causing the Japanese fighter to crash into the South Pacific Ocean. Robert was able to make a dead stick landing at Kadena Airfield and landed safely."
