Chapter 1767 Request for Reinforcements (Plus 4)

Historically, when the U.S. acquired the FW190, the comparison was made immediately, and it was surprising to find that the Fw 190 climbed better than the Mustang 1A at all altitudes. The best climb speed of the Mustang is about 16 km/h slower than that of the Fw 190, the maneuverability of the Fw 190 is worse than that of the Mustang, but the cornering performance is not as good as that of the Mustang.

That is to say, unless it is a circle in the horizontal plane, after a few circles, the Mustang fighter can go around the back of the FW190 and fire, but of course German pilots don't play like this, they prefer to hit and run, get rid of each other After that, dive down and attack again.

Now, the forwards of the two sides began to engage, and in the rear, General Marshal also began a rapid analysis.

This time it is not the US Navy, what does this mean? Are they acting alone? Or will they work together? Was the last time the U.S. Navy was completely crippled?

One question after another flashed in Machar's mind, and he knew that he couldn't hesitate any longer.

"Telegram to the Hindenburg requesting support from the Icelandic base," Machar said.

In the last battle, although the U.S. Naval Air Force was hit hard, it also showed the defensive limit of its own aircraft carrier formation. If the number of fighters dispatched by the Americans exceeds the last time, and the quality is also improved by a level, I am afraid there will be trouble.

At this time, there is no need to fiddle and ask for reinforcements from the Air Force on Iceland.

The commander-in-chief of the fleet is still Rader, and this is also a cross-service, so it is better for Rader to coordinate.

On the Hindenburg, Riedel also fell into contemplation. When they attacked Greenland, the Americans did not do their best, and the Army Air Force did not dispatch. Now, they have already returned, but they have run over.

Is it a small harassment, or a large-scale melee that has been planned for a long time?

After thinking for a while, Raidl did not hesitate any more, and said, "According to General Machar's suggestion, please ask the jet force on Iceland to support."

At this time, the main force of the fleet has not yet been dispatched, and there are still hundreds of fighter planes waiting to take off. However, the fleet fighter planes can take off at any time, but it takes more than 20 minutes for the Icelandic support troops to fly. Minutes, enough for a lot of unexpected situations.

can not wait.

Call for reinforcements!

The radio waves quickly flew to Iceland. In the aviation base in Iceland, the Novotny Brigade immediately made preparations for takeoff.

The group leader, Walter Nowotny, was named after him, and the official organization was the 1st Air Group of the 7th Fighter Wing. And now it has gradually started to be named after the brigade captain, which is more intuitive. The entire brigade is equipped with a total of 24 Stormbird fighters, which belong to the sharp knives of the Imperial Air Force.

Last time, they were stationed in Finland and successfully intercepted a group of planes taking off from Greenland, shooting down all those Mustang fighters without letting one go, enough for everyone to talk about.

It is a pity that since that action, they have been silent again, and until the end of the war with the Soviet Union, they have not obtained new results.

Until recently, due to their experience in combat in cold regions, their troops were transferred to Iceland. After that, they were looking forward to a mission every day, and now, the mission is finally here!

"Our naval fleet was attacked by the Americans, and the navy requested our support, so we must set off immediately, protect our naval fleet, and let them see our combat effectiveness." When saying the last sentence , Nowotny is excited.

A jet, at least five propeller planes, the combat power of a group of them is definitely more than that of an aircraft carrier formation. Now, it is time to show off to the Navy, and they can't wait.

take off!

Nowotny ran to his fighter and turned on all the switches. With the help of the ground crew, the unique roar of the turbine engine came from the rear, and it had been successfully started!

The tail spurted out a hot orange-red light. Nowotny pushed the accelerator to the maximum state. After checking that the flames at the tail were intact, the ground crew made a gesture, so Nowotny released the brakes.

The jet's take-off was stronger than the catapult take-off on the Navy's aircraft carrier. The huge push back constantly came from behind, and Nowotny's heart also flew gently with it.

Pulling the lever, the fighter raised its head and continued to roll forward. The special rubber tires continued to rub against the ground. Then, it left the ground and took off!

Behind him, the silver-white fighter planes are pulling up. The auxiliary fuel tank under the wing looks so obvious, as if it is a big bomb. At the same time, on the outside of the auxiliary fuel tank, it reaches the end of the wing. , and a row of rockets, which are air-to-air rockets specially developed for aviation, codenamed R4M.

Germany has already started the development of various missiles. The anti-tank missiles that first reached the actual combat state were operated by remote control, which is quite primitive. It may still hit the slow tanks.

Therefore, although Germany has this kind of remote-controlled air-to-air missile, it has always been a tasteless rib. Under the proposal of Fuhrer Cyric, the air-to-air missile with infrared device is still under development, and it is not clear when it will come out.

Then, the only weapons in air combat are machine guns.

When Britain and the United States were still using machine guns, German fighter jets began to use machine guns. The 20mm machine gun was their main weapon. The Storm Bird was equipped with three 20mm machine guns, and the firepower was ferocious.

When dealing with fighter jets, as long as you hit two or three shells, the opponent can explode in the air, but if it is a bomber, it may be able to withstand it.

In order to increase the ability of intercepting bombers, Stormbird specially installed these air-to-air rockets. Each wing has 12 rockets, which can satisfy a salvo with a range of one kilometer. If the opponent is in a dense formation, it can still collide. up.

This is the first time they have mounted this rocket into actual combat. Due to the jet's outstanding strength and terrible speed, this aircraft is most suitable as an interceptor to intercept the enemy's bomber formation.

The silver-white fighter jets, spraying hot flames from the tail, took off from the runway, climbed at an incredible speed, and soon entered a cruising altitude of 14,000 kilometers. Cruise at a speed of 1000 km/h.

There must be an enemy plane left, don't let your side run for nothing!
