#1069 so Teasing (Plus 5)
"035 received." After receiving the order, Merritt immediately pushed the control lever, and the fighter rolled out of his formation with a skillful roll.
This action of his made the pilots of the Yak-1 fleet following at an altitude of 10,000 meters below the envy of the pilots. At this altitude, they only dare to fly level, and any maneuvering with large overload may cause a terrible stall. threaten their safety.
Look at the German fighter jets, how did they do it? It's like a fighter in all airspace! At an altitude of more than 10,000 meters, it is still so flexible!
The front air-cooled engine burst out with a surging power of more than 2,000 horsepower. The secondary supercharger continuously blew fresh air into the cylinder, and the fuel injector injected fuel, ignited, and finally converted into powerful power.
In later generations, until the 21st century, in-cylinder direct-injection engines were the focus of propaganda by car manufacturers. During World War II, German fighter jet engines had already achieved in-cylinder direct injection for high compression ratios.
Precisely because there is no carburetor, they can easily dive and then pull up, flying all kinds of negative-G maneuvers, while the opponent's fighter can't.
Now, the two FW190 fighter jets are flying towards the opposite side. The bright spots in the sky in the distance gradually show their outlines. The other side is actually at the same height as our own!
"The other party is flying at an altitude of 12,000 and is flying towards us quickly. Four fighter planes are in a diamond formation. The visual model is very similar to the Yak-1, but the Yak-1 can't fly so high." Merritt on the radio It keeps reporting to the rear.
At the same time, the MiG-1 fleet on the opposite side also found them.
"FW190 fighter jets, two, are approaching us," Pokryshkin shouted over the radio. "Shake the wings and show them our identity."
They came to escort, not to fight, so now they have to show their goodwill.
Pokryshkin slowly pushed the lever, the wings began to shake, and his movements were extremely gentle.
Generally speaking, Soviet pilots are quite rude and prefer brutal operation, but it is absolutely inappropriate to control this kind of aircraft, because it may get out of control at any time!
The MiG-1 is definitely not a mature aircraft. Historically, it has only produced more than 100 aircraft, and when it is equipped to the troops, almost all of them are experimental.
Pokryshkin's plane swayed his wings to show his goodwill, and the other planes behind him also swayed.
"The Soviets are flapping their wings, they are salute us, we have to say hello to them." Merritt said excitedly.
"035, pay attention to discipline." Heinz's order came through the earphone again, so Merritt could only shake his wings in the same way, but how could he show his respect just by shaking his wings?
At this time, the two sides were still rapidly approaching, and Merritt suddenly had an idea in his heart.
Due to the acceleration just now, they have been away from their own fleet for a while, and since the Soviets have not turned, they should continue to fly with the Soviets now.
Then, you need to make a smart turn!
"036, follow me." As the captain of his own team, Merritt has such power. In his field of vision, the Soviet plane is getting closer and closer. When he could see the pilot in the other party's cockpit, Merritt suddenly used both hands to hold his control stick behind him.
Like the BF109, the FW190's operating lever is a bit heavy, and when he wants to do a large overload maneuver, he even has to use his whole body, especially now.
So, in front of all the Soviets, the two planes that came to greet them suddenly climbed vertically!
Their heads slowly lifted, watching the climb of the two German fighter jets with admiration in their eyes.
envy what? Now it is above the altitude of 10,000 meters! At such altitudes, their planes also have little maneuverability. Intercepting bombers can, but fighting nimble fighters is impossible.
But now, the German fighter jets can continue to fly flexibly and make various maneuvers at this altitude, which is simply too abnormal.
Yes, the air-cooled engine in front of the German fighter is quite powerful. Under the action of the secondary supercharger, the maximum power can even burst out to 2400 horsepower, which is twice that of the Soviet fighter!
This excellent power is the premise that supports them to do various maneuvers.
They could only look up, watching each other continue to climb higher, and then their necks were thrown back.
As the German fighters climbed, they continued to advance, so they passed the German fighters and rushed to the front.
They couldn't see it backwards, and they didn't have the heart to continue watching the performance of the two fighter jets. They continued to fly forward for a while, and it was time to join the German fleet and escort them.
Especially Pokryshkin, he had to figure out in his mind which airspace in front of him to start turning, and then accelerate again, just to perfectly merge with the German fleet and enter the escort mission.
Your own fighter jets must pass through a radius of two kilometers. This circle is a bit large, so you must prepare as soon as possible.
He would never have noticed that at this moment, the two fighter planes that the Germans pulled up and climbed up, after climbing five hundred meters in the air, buckled upside down.
Thrilling or not, thorns are not exciting?
At this moment, for Merritt, the ground is above his head, and the sky is below his feet. The muscles on his face are also aching from the overload just now. He looks at the Soviet aircraft group below him, slowly approaching , get closer.
The propeller was turning rapidly, driving the FW190, and approaching the top of the Soviet aircraft. At this time, looking down from his cockpit, Merritt could clearly see the inside of the Soviet cockpit, the shoddy operating lever, The exhaust gas exhaled by the oxygen mask, unfortunately, there is no camera at this time, otherwise it would be the most pleasing to take a picture.
The sky above your head seems to have suddenly darkened? At this height, there are no clouds anymore! Pokryshkin raised his head habitually, glanced at the top of his head, and after that, he could no longer control his anger.
These damn Germans are actually making fun of themselves like this! It's like a cat catching a mouse, but unfortunately, my side is the role of the mouse!
He suddenly lost his mind, and the flying that he had always loved in the past seems to have no interest in him now.
