Great game. Imagine what they could have done with rudimentary radio-guided rocket propelled smart bombs!

I remember watching “The Dambusters” on television when I was a teenager. I read a reference later about it in Winston Churchill’s WWII memoir.

This was fun and brought back fond memories.

There is no combination of speed, height, and launch distance that works. Is there ANY solution?

speed 210 height 60 distance 1430 worked for me

gee, thanks for ruining it, eddie! but thanks also for the help, i don’t really understand this game.

It looks as though some people are struggling with this – now just imagine trying to do it for REAL, with machine gun bullets coming at you at the same time!

This game sucks

Eddie is right, i was able to bomb the dam with similar values. I am surprised at other comments about how bad this game is. This is just for illustration purposes, if u want to play a game then please buy Medal of honor for PS2. I believe this now costs about 50$ as a bundle.

this is not a game. This is an ilustration of real hard mission during WWII. For a better understanding of this mission read the novell written by Paul Brickwill. I believe the name of the book is the Daam Busters. An Elite Squadron of the RAF. After this mission this squadron was used for all kind of impossible missions. Check RAF web site and look for Squadron 617
