The Third Reich

Chapter 670

The TB-3 bomber only has three self-defense machine guns, which is far from enough. However, when the bombers form a formation, they can use the firepower of friendly aircraft to form a defensive network to protect themselves.

It's just that this defense net is not airtight. The best way to protect bombers is always to escort fighters!

Sitting in the turret, looking at the Finnish fighter jets flying outside the glass frame, Ivanov was extremely nervous at this time. He was a recruit who only joined the army last year. Because he passed various rotation tests, he became a machine gunner.

He looked at the flying two-plane formation, and his field of vision continued to expand. His palms began to sweat, and the battle was about to begin!

However, then, he only saw the other party continue to climb, from the front of his head, the top of his head, brushed all at once, and flew to the back.

Even if you have never flown a plane and just play air combat games, you should know that when flying head-to-head, the contact time between the two sides is very short.

So, Bruce pulled the engine and flew over the opponent, and then he pulled the stick and rudder hard.

The sky was spinning, the blood was surging, and the huge overload made his eyes turn blood red. He looked at his dashboard from the corner of his eyes. Just now, he made a huge overload steering.

When his eyes became clear again, he had already seen the huge bomber group below him, and at this time, he was already behind the other party!

How to attack a bomber formation? Of course, it flew to the top of the opponent's back, and then swooped down from behind!

That's what Bruce did.

He pushed his joystick, took his wingman, and swooped down from the sky!

In the field of vision, the outline of the DB-3 bomber became clearer and clearer. The structure of the twin engines and the turret at the rear were so clearly seen. Then, a flame of fire appeared on the opponent's tail turret.

The 7.62mm machine gun fired violently!

Just after seeing the opponent flying over his head, Ivanov kept watching with his neck up. Sure enough, he noticed that the opponent had drawn a beautiful arc, and he attacked in turn!

He put the opponent in his sight, and then fired, but unfortunately, his bullets could not hit the opponent at all!

Shooting in the air requires a lot of attention. Simple mechanical sights have to take into account many other factors, such as wind speed, gravity, etc. Even in later generations, before the emergence of the cannon hotline, the cannon shooting in the air is a technique work.

It looks mighty, but in fact, the bullet is still far from Bruce.

Bruce continued to dive, and his speed was getting faster and faster. When he was almost five hundred meters away, he pressed the shooting button.

"Tom tom tom!" The 20mm cannon fired both cannons. In an instant, the engine on the opponent's left wing emitted billowing black smoke, and the fire quickly spread!

The performance of the French fighter is not very good, but almost all pilots who have used it will praise the cannon on it.

Pulling the nose quickly, Bruce's plane turned from diving to climbing, and the wingman following him saw the other side's appearance, and there was no need to replenish the guns.

This DB-3 bomber rolled and fell down, this is just the beginning!

The ferocious volunteer pilots, driving legal fighter jets, are like a group of hungry wolves besieging the cattle. If they catch one, they will bite it!

The battle in the air began fiercely.

"Look, another Soviet bomber has fallen!" At this time, on the ground, behind the Mannerheim line, a gunner looked at the sky and said.

Beside him is a 50mm anti-tank gun. This is the latest anti-tank gun that has been supported. The outline is very low. The artillery bunker built here exceeds 0.6 meters, and the gun body will almost stick to the ground. The whole gun emplacement is hard to find.

It's just that this gun has no sign, no factory address, year, month, and no label. Only those who are most familiar with it know that this anti-tank gun was actually equipped in the German army.

The PAK38, a 50mm anti-tank gun, was a product of Krupp to replace the 37mm anti-tank gun used in the Spanish Civil War.

In war, however, weapon performance changes quite rapidly. In the Spanish Civil War, 37mm was enough, but after that, 50mm tank guns were needed.

And now, the 50mm anti-tank gun can no longer guarantee the future armor threat, so the 50mm anti-tank gun finally became a short-lived in German weaponry and gave way to the 75mm anti-tank gun, and these eliminations When they came down, they came to Finland.

It is no problem to deal with the current threat of Soviet tanks!

At the same time, the line of defense here is also the area where the battle is expected to break out the most. Here, is the Karelian Isthmus!

The width of the entire isthmus is about 100 kilometers. On the Soviet side was an uninhabited desert, which was the most conducive to the attack of the tank troops.

At the same time, the traffic conditions in Finland are relatively good. There are four railways and ten highways leading to the northwestern part of Finland. Therefore, if the Soviets quickly conquered here, they can quickly enter the main areas of Finland.

This is a major transportation route from the Soviet Union to the interior of Finland, and its strategic position is very important. The Mannerheim Line of Defense was constructed here.

Historically, the line of defense that the Finns thought was indestructible did not last long, but now, the entire line of defense has been completely renewed.

There are hundreds of anti-tank guns like them on the entire front. At the same time, behind the front, there are also some hidden tanks for counter-attack, including heavy tanks from France!

Finland has now been mobilized across the country, and its troops are still insufficient. Therefore, in addition to Finnish soldiers, there are some new faces guarding the defense line.

It is said that volunteer soldiers from friendly countries speak in a variety of languages ​​and in various languages, which also brings trouble to their combat.

For example, the gunner of this gun speaks a Polish accent, speaks English, and conducts simple communication.

"All cheer up, the Soviets' planes are here, and their tanks will come up soon!" The artillery commander, Pattiff, shouted: "Don't stare at the top of your head, and watch out for the bombs to fall!"

One's own air force is preventing the other party's bombing, but there are so many bombers on the other side, there will still be bombers bombing.

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, he saw a bomber overhead, dropping several black bombs.

What a stinky mouth, what to say!
