Nine Hundred and Thirty One Odin

A German "gunship" is patrolling the plains. Compared with patrol vehicles and infantry patrols on the ground, this newly born weapon seems to have a unique advantage in ruling a large area. [No pop-up novel website] It can patrol the entire area at super high speed, and quickly suppress the guerrillas who attack the railway tracks or roads with the weapons they carry.

Compared with modern armed helicopters, although this Odin helicopter is already the second generation of German helicopters, it still seems too simple. This kind of aircraft only has armor plate protection in some important parts, and it can only protect against ordinary rifles and small-caliber machine gun bullets-as for its windshield and other places, it is still too fragile to withstand a single blow.

Of course, the comparator is simply a convertible-like Crusader helicopter. This kind of Odin helicopter has been greatly improved. At least in terms of defense, the two pilots inside are no longer close to the level of a Ben. The biggest improvement lies in its weapon system, which has been greatly improved.

First of all, this aircraft is equipped with two sets of eight-packed rockets. Although the accuracy is not very good, it can still cover a large area with one shot, at least for mountain troops that lack artillery support and reconnaissance patrols and security troops. Said that this kind of fire support is already very "powerful".

Moreover, this helicopter has two 20mm cannons. This weapon was not very successful in the experiment, because on the basis of the aviation cannon, this weapon weakened the initial velocity of some artillery (in order to reduce the recoil force) . Therefore, the results of these two cannons in anti-tank operations are not ideal, but they are a great weapon for supporting infantry to level firepower points.

In addition, it is the 7.92 mm caliber G42 machine gun mounted on the side of the helicopter. This weapon is very useful when hovering to cover troops, and can effectively use height to suppress various firepower points of the enemy.

Generally speaking, the combat effectiveness of this so-called "armed helicopter" is not much stronger than that of an attack aircraft such as the Stuka 2, and in some places it is even far inferior. For example, when this kind of helicopter faces enemy attack aircraft or fighter jets, its self-protection means are very limited, and it is easy to be shot down by various enemy firepower.

However, with certain benefits, this aircraft still received a large number of orders from the German government. Users include the SS, Army, Navy, Air Force, and almost everyone gets a share of the order for this aircraft.

This kind of aircraft does not require huge airport facilities, and it does not have high terrain requirements for take-off. It can provide troops with the ability to drag equipment vertically, and can hover at a designated position instead of just passing by... In short, there are many features that everyone loves, so everyone is happy to equip some of this aircraft.

Among the many military units, the one equipped with the most such aircraft is the German Army Wehrmacht. These army generals are keen to establish a three-dimensional rapid response force, using helicopters to strengthen the firepower of the troops, so as to realize the Army's super-enhanced version of the blitzkrieg operational concept at some time in the future.

For those who understand,

All of the above are just excuses. In fact, to put it bluntly, the Army intends to take a share of the support functions of the Air Force, and use this emerging method to increase its power chips. The subtext is very simple, that is, "the army must also have an army that can fly".

Sometimes this kind of thinking is very naive, but I have to admit that at least in the current situation, the German Odin helicopter has been developed in this way, and with the market and room for development, German engineers also have more freedom. environment to develop better helicopters.

The truth is actually very cruel. Even today, 70 years later, armed helicopters do not actually have much advantage over real tank killer attack aircraft. Comparing the relatively mature A10 attack aircraft, Su25 attack aircraft and ah-64 Apache, each has its own advantages, not to say that armed helicopters have an overwhelming combat advantage in anti-tank.

As for why you have to hold back while gritting your teeth, the reason is simply the competition between arms. This may be very ruthless to the soldiers fighting on the front line, but for the entire army, it is possible to take the first step in three-dimensional combat in this blind persistence.

If this kind of competition is suppressed to a limited extent, it is a virtuous circle of tactical fermentation powder, which can allow troops to explore new tactical fields endlessly; of course, if this kind of competition is not ashamed, it will become a vicious circle. Going on is the source of the Japanese army and navy's amusing *, a shameful cycle of mutual dismantling.

"This is Clairvoyance 3, here is Clairvoyance 3, I'm patrolling this area numbered K! Everything is normal." The captain in charge of flying the plane contacted the nearby Army Aviation Command by radio. This new type of arms simplifies many steps for the Army to contact the Air Force to request support. On the other hand, it can be regarded as an improvement.

"If there is no situation, follow the pre-set route and fly back... There are two ground patrols in the K area, do you want to say hello to them?" Next to the radio equipment in the ground command center, De * The police officer was stirring the sugared coffee with his spoon. The treatment of the Army Air Corps is based on that of the Air Force, and it is even much better than that of the Armored Corps. Therefore, even in places close to the front line, most people can occasionally drink luxury coffee.

"Okay, you can tell me their channel..." The captain smiled and adjusted the flight altitude of the plane, locking his own altitude at a relatively high position. In this position, ground weapons are more threatening to the helicopter. Small, they can fly the entire distance in a relatively safer way.

"Hey! Look over there! There is a situation on the ground!" On the co-pilot, the weapon c operator pressed the throat communicator and called his partner loudly, hoping to attract the captain's attention. Apparently he had seen something and needed the captain to readjust the flight trajectory to confirm.

"Where?" The captain adjusted the two c-sticks on the top of his head to slow down the speed of the helicopter, and then he adjusted the c-stick in his hand to point the nose at the place where the co-pilot said there was a problem .

Soon, he saw what was happening on the ground. Some German soldiers were firing. Opposite them were some gunmen in civilian clothes. The two groups were shooting at each other while relying on their respective cover, tracer bullets drew a dazzling but very short straight line on the ground.

"Command! Please answer if you hear it! Command! Please answer if you hear it!" The captain contacted his ground command while operating the plane to slowly descend. Hearing the answer from the officer on duty in the headset, he continued: "I saw troops on the ground exchanging fire. Please check to see if there is anything nearby! Please check which troops are fighting nearby."

The voice from the earphone almost caused the officer on duty to swallow his soup spoon. He hurriedly stood up from his radio, called me to check, then pulled off the earphone, and ran to The patrol unit in the room not far away commanded the radio station.

Then he ran back in a panic, grabbed the microphone and shouted loudly: "A team in Area K has been attacked, and those idiots forgot to notify our side...if we distinguish between the enemy and us, we will open fire! Open fire!"

"Clairvoyance No. 3 understands!" After the captain replied, he gave an attack order to his co-pilot: "I'm descending, you find a chance to fire! Kill all those who don't wear German uniforms! Pay attention to the surrounding environment Be careful in ambush."

"Okay! Let the people behind pay attention to safety! I'm going to use rockets!" The weapon c operator on the co-pilot shouted loudly. There was a partition behind him, and behind the door were two machine gunners wearing seat belts. , They are also responsible for search and investigation in normal times, and they use machine guns to fire and attack during battles.

Without the slightest hesitation, the German helicopter pointed its nose at the target on the ground, adjusted the orientation of the nose slightly, and the weapon operator on the co-pilot pressed the rocket launcher's button Press the button, and the fuselage of the winning grader began to tremble. With this tremor, rockets one after another rushed towards the target area hundreds of meters away.

The accuracy of this kind of rocket is not particularly good, so in order to increase the hit probability of this kind of rocket and control the spread range, German helicopters generally compress the launch distance within one kilometer, in most cases it is hundreds meters to get the accuracy they want.

As the dazzling light shone in the air, a German soldier retreated behind the stone and supported his steel helmet, watching the flames from the helicopter flying towards the enemy, his eyes following the rockets. Cross the sky, then poke your head out and look across. The place was instantly enveloped in a sea of ​​flames formed by an explosion, and the machine gun position that was still extremely fierce just now became silent for an instant.

"I'm going to turn the fuselage sideways. They need continuous suppressive firepower." The captain looked at the open area where the explosion occurred. This kind of individual target exposed in the wilderness is really a rare target. The goal is not difficult. He adjusted the nose of the plane, and the machine gun on the side got the shooting angle, so the machine gun began to spout flames, and tracer bullets rained down on the ground.

On the ground, the German soldiers who watched the helicopter showing off their might immediately showed their fighting spirit. They were so depressed by these damned Soviet guerrillas just now, and now they finally have a chance to take revenge.

I don’t know who yelled it out, and everyone raised their weapons: “Come on!” () “My Third Reich” only represents the author’s point of view, and if it is found that its content violates national laws and conflicts Please delete the content, and the position is only committed to providing a healthy and green reading platform. 【】,thank you all!
