Chapter 1647: Bloody Battle in the Sky 4
Chapter 1647 Bloody Battle in the Sky 4
Close-range shooting from more than a dozen aircraft is extremely fatal to any airborne target in this era. A K-6 bomber located in the front was covered by the crossfire of two DH9A fighters at the same time. The dense bullets were like sharp The knife usually cuts off the entire machine head! The flames and flying shrapnel continued to extend backward along the fuselage, forcibly turning the first half of the fuselage into honeycomb.
Another K-6 bomber was also unlucky. A DH9A fired from the side and broke half of the bomber's wing and took off the upper machine gun turret of the fuselage, including the man and the gun. And this is not just fun. When this DH9A flew past the bomber formation, another DH9A passed through the rain of flying bullets and successfully entered the attack position. At a distance of less than 150 meters, the British bomber fired like crazy, and after more than ten seconds, it slammed into the middle of the bomber!
In the final stage of this fatal collision, the two sides fought almost at hand-to-hand distance. In this battle of less than 3 minutes, at least 9 DH9A fighter jets were completely destroyed, and almost all of the remaining assault aircraft were taken away. were injured, and 3 K-4 and 1 K-6 bomber in the German bomber group were destroyed, and at least 6 aircraft were damaged.
However, the battle of the Bull Squadron was not over. When entering the station, their aircraft group actually entered from above in a shallow dive. After the attack, it passed through the lower part of the German bomber group. In this way, using height into speed can allow them to escape the opponent's firepower and possible pursuit faster. In the previous battles, Captain Cullen relied on this skill to avoid several hunts, including facing J-3 fighter jet, but unfortunately, this time, the ace pilot of the Royal Air Force may not be so lucky, because the Red Baron is targeting him!
A red figure slid down from the sky, spreading its terrifying wings like the god of death!
As the top pilots in the German Air Force, Richthofen and others have gained the right to move freely over the station. They can ignore the safety of friendly forces and combat missions. The only goal of their existence is to have fun. Hunting British fighter jets, and at the same time, sending a complete usage report for the newly developed aircraft of the Bavarian Air Force.
To be honest, this kind of battle between two groups of planes making the Red Baron feel a little numb. After all, a head-on confrontation with so many planes is very scary for anyone, and the most unbearable thing for him is, The key to whether you can survive this hedging is not your skill, but your luck... This is truly a place where luck determines strength! Therefore, the Red Baron doesn't like this method of fighting against the hail of bullets. He prefers to use his own skills to hunt down the enemy with exquisite tactics and excellent judgment without any restrictions!
And now, the opportunity has come! The Bull Squadron had just completed a head-on charge. All of them were injured, and their fleet had been scattered by intensive firepower.
In other words, they are almost all fighting alone, and the most fatal thing is that they have also lost their altitude advantage, making them the most convenient target for sneak attacks. Of course, there is another reason why Red Baron chose them, and that is that in the Air Force's record system, the weight of DH9A is much higher than that of Camel...
"He's an old bird!" Seeing the prey in front of him start to dodge, the Red Baron couldn't help but curl his lips and said.
Cullen's survival to this day is not entirely due to luck. His quality is also very high. Even at the most critical moment, he will subconsciously scan his rear every 30 seconds while flying. , will pay attention to controlling the speed and height. According to his words, he will either fly very fast or he will fly very high. He always keeps his aircraft in a higher energy state.
The first habit allowed him to discover the Red Baron falling from the clouds earlier, and the second habit allowed him to still have the strength to fight even in a bad state! Relying on the strong power provided by the Rolls-Royce engine, the DH9A is like a cunning fox in the air, constantly swinging left and right, trying not to let the Red Baron bite it.
"Tricky! Very tricky!" The DH9A's horizontal mobility is also very good. If a wave of raids misses it, after it loses its height advantage, the opponent can completely circle and then bite itself. At this time, the competition is actually about perseverance, to see who can't stand it first! For Coulomb, the side-to-side swing of the aircraft consumes energy, which must be compensated by lowering altitude. Therefore, the altitude of his plane will become lower and lower, and for the Red Baron, if an enemy plane suddenly appears behind him at this time, then the attack may have to be abandoned!
However, the Baron's luck didn't seem to be very good today. When he looked back, a Camel fighter jet flew past the corner of the Baron's eyes and then entered the blind spot of the Baron's field of vision. This gave the Baron a warning sign. Site awareness is always a very important point in air combat. For an aircraft with good vision, even if its performance is equivalent to that of its opponent, it can still have a very big advantage. And for this aircraft to penetrate into the blind spot of its own vision, the Red Baron cannot If you dare to be careless, you have to decide now whether to give up the attack or solve it quickly!
"Haha, can you finally lose your composure?" Cullen saw the strange monoplane behind him start to dive and attack. This time was not good for the attacker. The distance was a bit far and the angle of attack was not good. , as long as you circle to the right, you will have a high probability of avoiding the opponent's attack.
The rest seemed to unfold exactly like Cullen's phenomenon. The red fighter jet behind him entered into a very bad position. After barely bringing itself within the attack range, it fired a short burst and the two sides missed it. However, Cullen ended When he was circling to get out of the battle, he suddenly discovered that the aircraft behind him was climbing at an incredible speed, regaining the altitude advantage, and then made a beautiful roll and pointed the cannon at him again!
"Asshole, this devil!" Cullen was so frightened that he immediately pushed the throttle all the way. With the strategy of further squeezing the engine, the DH9A, which had originally slowed down, accelerated again! The red speed pointer quickly pointed to a high speed of 160 kilometers per hour. This speed was already fast enough. However, what he didn't expect was that the red devil behind him caught up at a faster speed, and then what happened next In a straight-line pursuit battle, the DH9A, which was known for its speed, was defeated. He watched the opponent catch up with him, and then beat his own ass from a distance of 300 meters!
