Chapter 1641 Dive Attack
In air combat, the right formation can exert the greatest power.
A long time ago, experts in air combat noticed this and proposed various formation plans, ranging from four-aircraft formations to three-aircraft formations and so on.
The four-machine diamond-shaped formation looks good, but the last one is almost useless, and the three-machine formation is gradually becoming popular. As the speed of the aircraft is getting faster and faster, it is already very difficult to continue to maintain a dense formation of multiple aircraft, and it may cause a collision in the air. In the era of jets, the speed has been further improved. In this case, only the two-plane formation is the most common solution.
The leader attack, the wingman covers, if the position is suitable, the wingman can switch to the attack state at any time, so that the two sides cooperate with each other and jointly attack the enemy, which is the best tactic of the jet.
Although there are still 50 kilometers, but for a fighter jet flying at 1,000 kilometers per hour, this is only a matter of minutes.
The two Junkers turbojet engines roared like a roar, and the aviation fuel continuously entered the combustion chamber through the fuel pump, turning into hot gas, propelling the fighter forward, and the engine at the rear brought the optimization of efficiency, 24 aircraft The silver-white fighter jets, like tigers descending the mountain, headed towards the formation of American fighter jets.
At this time, the 339 fighter squadron was still flying smoothly at an altitude of 10,000 meters. Major Michael looked at his compass, then looked down, and shouted in the radio: "Attention, in the airspace ahead, prepare to turn, pass Swar The Bar Islands flew south, and after two minutes, it turned into an ultra-low altitude flight."
Svalbard, an archipelago in eastern Greenland and northern Finland, was planned as a turning point for them.
As long as they enter the ultra-low altitude, no one will be able to find them. The only thing they need to worry about is that they are on the right route and not flying in the wrong direction.
No one is looking back.
Almost no fighter in this era has a rearward vision, even if it is a Mustang fighter, the cockpit is raised so that the pilot has a good vision, and the observation of the rear is still futile and belongs to an absolute blind spot.
Many people may not understand, but when the plane was manufactured, it was like this. The back of the pilot is the seat. How much does the neck have to be twisted to look back? It's almost the same as practicing acrobatics since childhood.
At the same time, no one will bother to look back. In the air, if you want to look back, just push the joystick, push the rudder, and fly over, right?
Just like an aircraft decelerating in the air, there is no brake in flight, but as long as the pilot pulls up the aircraft and the fuselage is erected, he can use the air resistance to decelerate quickly. It's that simple.
Now, the pilots of the entire formation are still immersed in the excitement of the great combat mission that is about to take place. In particular, before they break out of radio contact, they have been confirmed by the rear intelligence system that Cyric is already at Berlin Airport, taking off on a plane. ! The time, the route, are almost exactly the same, exactly as they deduced.
They must be successful!
18 Mustang fighter jets, scattered in the sky in a large formation, flying in darkness.
Pilot Ren, driving his own Mustang fighter jet, flew at the end of the formation. He was the last to take off. At the same time, he was a substitute type in the flight mission and would only play at the last moment.
At this time, he was not nervous. As a pilot who joined the US Army Air Force after the Pearl Harbor incident, he was already a flying veteran before enlisting in the army.
The fighter plane in his hand also made him full of confidence. Various data proved that the performance of this plane is absolutely no worse than the most advanced FW190 of the Germans. Even if it is fighting with the advanced fighter planes of the Germans, he can also bravely fight. Shoot down the opponent's plane!
At this time, following the end of the formation, he was a little panicked, and he actually thought of his lover in New York. Since entering the army, they have been together less often, especially after driving the Mustang fighter, almost even Can't make phone calls.
After so long, I wonder if the lover has changed his mind?
At this moment, he felt something unusual on the top of his head.
Two streaks of white smoke extended from the top of his head. Although he was thinking about it, after feeling the strangeness in the corner of his eyes, his brain still used the idle process to complete the signal transmission.
So, he raised his head, and in his retina, it was already that terrifying fighter plane!
The first feature of the other party is that there is no propeller!
Although the German jets have been in development for several years, the secrecy is well done, and after going to the battlefield, almost everyone who saw them died, whether it was a jet fighter or a bomber.
So until now, the German jet is still a top secret existence. For most people, when they see a plane without a propeller, the first glance is surprise, the second is surprise, and the third is the reaction. , still surprised.
The opponent swooped down from a higher airspace. When it swooped down, it did not attack the enemy aircraft at the rear, but charged directly towards the center of the formation.
The center blooms!
To deal with a dense formation, as long as you smash it down from the middle and smash the middle, then the whole formation will disperse.
This is the most common way to deal with bomber formations, after all, bombers need to rely on their own dense self-defense fire to complete their mission to defend themselves.
Multiple bombers, close together, form an air fortress, and use self-defense weapons to fire, turning into hedgehogs, making it impossible for enemy aircraft to start.
At this time, it is the most appropriate to smash the hedgehog from the middle.
To deal with this fighter formation, this method is not the most perfect, but now Walter can't think too much. When they came down from high altitude, they were facing such a huge group of aircraft, so Walter came down facing the middle. .
Inside the aiming ring, the target was getting bigger and bigger, and when Walter pressed the red button on the joystick, Ren realized it, and he shouted loudly in the radio: "Attention, German fighter!"
"Tom tom tom!" Walter's fighter, under the nose, on both sides of the wing, and the 20mm cannon made a loud noise. It flew out of the muzzle and flew towards the target!
The entire storm bird has now become a violent bird, and the 20mm cannon it uses is even more maddening.
