Charles Carpenter, AKA Bazooka Charlie. His loiter speed was low enough that he could really draw a bead on enemy tanks, and top-down attacks with ATRLs were enough of a threat to Panzers that he could make them withdraw. Plus the German troops were in a pickle; if they heard/saw an LH-4 and it was him, there was a good chance he'd attack their armor if they did nothing. On the other hand if they shot at the aircraft and it wasn't him, but a spotter, they'd have artillery called in on them.
