Chapter 1642 Relaxing Performance

In aviation weapons, there are also different ideas.

When air-to-air missiles are not yet mature, automatic firing weapons are the main equipment. Then, there are different options, which can be small-caliber machine guns. It is characterized by abundant ammunition, which can be used almost unlimitedly. It's just a few thousand rounds.

However, it has a bigger disadvantage, that is, the power is not enough. Whether it is 7.92 mm or 12.7 mm, this kind of bullet can deal with the human body, but it is not easy to deal with the aircraft.

Although the plane is not as resistant as a tank, it still has hundreds of bullet holes and flew back. In the past, it was a wooden plane, and the overall mechanical strength was poor. When it came to the aluminum alloy period, the mechanical strength of the plane was greatly increased. , the only thing left is to blow up a fuel tank or something, but after the fuel tank adopts the self-closing technology, it is impossible for the fuel tank to be hit.

In this way, more dense bullets are needed. If four machine guns are not enough, eight machine guns will be used, and the bullet rain will cover the past.

As for the cannon, it's the other way around.

The caliber of the cannon is large and the weight is heavy, so it will not carry a lot. Like the current 20mm cannon, there are only 200 rounds of spare ammunition. If the pilot is a novice, if he panics in the air battle and presses it, he will not be able to fight for even a minute, and he will all go out.

Experienced shooters are short bursts of up to five shots at a time.

The amount of ammunition is its disadvantage, but its power is definitely its advantage. As long as it hits one shot, it will be a big hole.

Therefore, when it comes to the choice of jet weapons, German technicians and the aviation department had a lot of discussions. After many comparisons, they finally decided to eliminate machine guns and use all cannons.

The machine gun was outdated, and it swept the opponent into a hornet's nest. As a result, the opponent was fine, patted the butt and left. This is very disappointing to the pilot, and it must have enough power!

Considering the combination of weight and ammunition, the 20mm cannon is the most suitable choice.

One of the advantages of the jet is that the propeller on the nose is cancelled, so the large-caliber cannon can be placed directly on the nose, and two more can be placed on the wing root of the wing.

The three cannons meet at a position of about 500 meters in front, so 500 meters is its optimal range.

Now, at five hundred meters, Walter opened fire.

As a burst of fire emerged from the muzzles of the three cannons, the powerful 20mm artillery shell flew towards the front. It flew at a speed of 800 meters per second, and after half a second, it accurately hit Mustang fighter.

"Boom!" The first shell hit the right wing, and instantly exploded a large opening half a meter in diameter. Then, the second shell and the third shell followed.

"Boom, boom!" When the three shells flew, the entire right wing broke from the root of the wing. The Mustang fighter did not react at all, and rolled down and fell.

In this case, the pilot has no way to skydive at all.

The rest of the shells flew past the edge of the plane, drawing beautiful arcs in the air. This first attack was extremely accurate, with a delicate sense of beauty and murderous aura.

The whole shooting process only takes a few seconds.

At this time, Ren, just finished shouting on the radio, saw this terrifying and sharp blow. This terrifying fighter plane, the process of attack, is so unrestrained and arrogant.

As an opponent, you have to admire it.

Just after the attack of this aircraft was completed, it ended the dive at an incredible angle, turned sideways and climbed, and turned around and flew upwards!

The layman watches the fun, the layman watches the doorway.

Just looking at this, Ren knew that the Mustang fighter, which condensed the wisdom of the whole United States, was not worth mentioning in front of this kind of aircraft. The power of this kind of aircraft has exceeded their cognition!

At this time, he could see that the opponent was climbing, and two hot flames emerged from the tail of the plane, which stimulated his retinas. Although he didn't have any information, he could guess that it should be the opponent's engine.

This is simply alien technology!

Once hit, it recovers immediately. This is a tactic often used by German fighter jets. They don’t fight with each other on the level at all.

For German pilots, fight if you want, and leave if you want!

This is the case now.

After picking up the knife and knocking down a Mustang fighter as easily as chopping melons and vegetables, Walter did not continue the fight at all, but chose to climb and escape directly.

He didn't have the chance to continue fighting because of his speed.

If he wants to continue attacking, he has to reduce his speed and then fight with the opponent in the horizontal direction, which is not suitable for him.

In fact, for all fighter aircraft, propeller aircraft have the advantage of maneuvering in the horizontal direction, while jet aircraft is at high altitude and high speed, which is like the comparison between biplane and monoplane, but advanced monoplane will always Replacing biplanes, jets will also replace propellers.

This is just the first light-hearted performance.

Relying on the continuous and surging thrust provided by the two engines with a rear thrust-to-weight ratio of 3, and because the fuel continues to burn, the body becomes lighter, which brings a terrible thrust-to-weight ratio. , leaving a surprised look.

For Walter, this was the first victory. At the same time, after he left, his wingman just swooped down!

Walter attracted the attention of the pilot behind him. Unbeknownst to Ren, his bad luck also followed. It was only five seconds away from the first unlucky one.

Although the alarm was issued by Ren, he did not dodge immediately, and was completely shocked by the other party.

When he wanted to escape, there was no chance.

Carl Snow was driving his fighter jet, and after Walter climbed, he just dived down, and he aimed at Rennes!

The target in the aiming ring is getting bigger and bigger, and the distance is constantly approaching, one thousand meters, eight hundred meters, five hundred meters, four hundred meters...

"Antelope, fire quickly!" Walter's shout came from the radio. During the overload of the climb, Walter saw that his wingman was so close, and immediately spoke to remind him.

"Understood!" At this time, the distance had reached 300 meters, and Carl pressed the cannon button.

"Tom tom tom!" The three cannonballs were fired in unison, and the shells roared, smashing into the Mustang fighter in a flash.

"Boom!" The fighter plane was directly hit and exploded in the air!
