Chapter 1672 BF109 Vs. Wild Horses (Plus 7)
When seeing the BF109, the pilots of the Mustang fighter jets were quite excited.
Lieutenant Richard-I-Bong, at this time he was still a young hairy guy, his face was a little big and his skin was a little dark. He sat in his cockpit and looked at the BF109 fighter jet that flew in. My heart is full of expectations.
Next to his cockpit, there are two sun flags painted, which means that he has shot down two fighters of the islanders, and now, he will continue to create his new results and shoot down those advanced German fighters. !
Next to him, there are three other planes, four escorted P-51s form a formation, and fly towards the solitary fighter jet. For them, this will be an easy air battle.
Saburo Okamoto also saw the four fighter jets clearly. At this moment, he was not at all afraid. Although it was a lonely fighter jet, he knew that behind him, a large number of planes had already flown over.
From the point of view of later generations, it seems that the P-51 is a complete victory. After all, this is the pinnacle of the piston fighter. However, when comparing, it is also necessary to see clearly that these two aircraft have various models.
Later models will have reborn changes compared to the previous ones.
Now, Saburo Okamoto is driving the latest model of the BF109, and the P-51 Mustang is only the initial model that has just been born. The German technology of this era is quite abnormal.
Both sides are rapidly approaching, approaching, in Saburo Okamoto's eyes, the pupils are slowly dilating, and in the retina, the planes are getting clearer and clearer.
In the movable ring of the sight, the target gradually became larger, Saburo Okamoto stabilized his breathing, and then pressed the trigger.
"Tom tom tom!" In the middle of the propeller of the nose, the 20mm shaft gun made a crisp sound, and Okamoto Saburo took advantage of the cannon to speak first.
Head-to-head firing in mid-flight is the most test of the pilot's psychological quality, because at this time, whoever quits first will die.
In an instant, Richard realized that he had made a mistake, and he actually fell into this situation of attacking the opponent head-on!
In the air, when fighter jets are fighting each other, head-on is the most common, but they are all fleeting, and then it will become a dogfight. Whoever bites the tail first will gain the advantage.
Therefore, in the fierce competition between the two sides, whoever bites the tail first, instead of firing at the mid-air.
Against flying, the staggered time between the two sides will be very short, and the chance of firing is also very small, and, what is even more frightening is that who gets hit, this is completely a matter of luck, and has nothing to do with technology!
There are four planes on our side and one on the other side. Originally, the other side was at a disadvantage, but in the head-to-head flight, this is the other side's advantage! Because it's easier to get hit.
What's even more abhorrent is that the opponent is using an aerial cannon. The 20mm cannon has a much longer range than their 12.7mm machine gun. Therefore, the opponent has the opportunity to fire first!
All this made Richard feel depressed,
After discovering that the other party was firing, Richard's earphones immediately heard the voice of the captain: "Attention, the others turn to avoid immediately, and I will fight!"
With a fearless spirit, his lead pilot continued to fly towards the opposite BF109. He attracted the firepower of the other side, allowing other fighters to dodge calmly.
Otherwise, if you fly head-on, whoever escapes will die!
In air combat, orders must be strictly followed. Although Richard did not think the order given by the lead plane was the most correct, he had no other way.
He wouldn't choose to climb. If he climbed, he would just expose his belly to increase the impact area, and it would be easy to be hit by the opponent.
However, the plane behind the four-plane formation chose to climb, and just as it climbed out, Saburo Okamoto seized the opportunity.
He pulled the operating lever, the nose of the fighter plane lifted, and dense 20mm shells were fired at the climbing Mustang fighter.
"Tom tom, bang!"
The third shell successfully hit the belly of the Mustang fighter, and the shell immediately tore a large hole with a diameter of several tens of centimeters. Then, the plane began to smoke.
With a few more shots, it can surely be shot down easily!
Saburo Okamoto has no chance.
Just as he raised his nose and attacked the opponent, his belly was also exposed to the leader of the opponent's four-plane formation.
The leader's two 12.7mm and two 7.62mm machine guns had already entered the range. The pilot pressed the button, and the dense rain of bullets instantly enveloped Saburo Okamoto's fighter.
The advantage of choosing a machine gun is that it has a high density of firepower. Now, no matter how Okamoto Saburo tries to avoid it, he cannot escape this powerful and dense barrage.
Countless bullets hit his plane, and the fuselage began to vibrate continuously. Saburo Okamoto gritted his teeth, stepped on the rudder, and in the dense barrage, slammed into the firing Mustang fighter.
At the beginning, Zero War dominated the sky, which made the U.S. Navy really depressed. Later, the Americans found a weakness. Zero War lacked armor protection. It was a big lighter that exploded when it was hit.
If it was Zero War, it would have been blown up long ago.
However, Bf109 is quite resistant to beatings. The pilot's part has armor protection, the fuel tank has self-closing technology, and the power of machine gun bullets is too small. Therefore, there are more than 30 bullet holes on the plane just now, but they are not the key. .
The time between the two sides was very short, only ten seconds. Saburo Okamoto opened fire first, wounding one, and then the other leader opened fire, and the distance between the two sides was already close at hand.
At this moment, this terrifying BF109 was about to crash into it?
When he saw the other party press the fuselage abruptly, the lead pilot knew that it was not good. Is this going to die together? This tactic is not what we want.
So, he can only push the nose, staggered from the other side, the fastest and most effective is to dive.
When the lead plane dived, Richard was watching the battle. He had already begun to admire the pilot of the other side. He was cunning, decisive, and not afraid of death. Now, with one-on-four, he was still the main attacker, and he was definitely the most elite pilot!
This further stimulated his will to fight, and compete with the pilot of this island country!
At this time, as his lead plane dived, the Bf109 also began to dive, and during the dive, it caught up behind the lead plane.
Richard also began to dive, just in time to catch up with the opponent, the three fighter jets dived like this, dropping rapidly from the height of 10,000 meters.
