Chapter 1801 Ambush 3
The roar of the 40MM machine gun and large-caliber machine gun even overshadowed the roar of the anti-aircraft gun. Countless locust-like bullets crisscrossed the air. With the help of the shooting director, countless bullets chased the group of British fighter jets that were trying to make a sneak attack. , in less than 2 minutes, the British transformed from hunters into prey!
Dense rain of bullets came from all directions, and the endless explosions and muzzle dancing flames frightened the British pilots like a death curse. The originally neat formation was torn to pieces in an instant. The British fighter jets panicked and flew towards the direction they thought was safe, feeling the fear of bullets whizzing past them. However, little did they know that at the end of these places, when the British plane was about to pull up, its huge belly was exposed somewhere. In the sight of an anti-aircraft gun, a series of fireballs rose into the sky. A 2-pound shell plunged into the body of a British fighter jet and was torn into two pieces!
"The Germans have deployed hundreds of machine guns and small-caliber anti-aircraft guns here. How can they have such rich anti-aircraft firepower now?" At this time, the British fighter force still hovering in the air looked like it had turned into a net of fire. When we were so low in the sky, we couldn't help but feel fear and a little bit of luck. If it was them who went down just now, I'm afraid they would be like those mosquitoes that accidentally got into the spider's web, and they wouldn't be able to protect themselves now, right?
"It seems that the situation has changed now. Either the Germans have resolved their internal disputes, or they have received assistance from the Eastern Front." Most British people thought of the most likely reason and have been forced to do both. Have the German troops fighting on the front lines really begun to converge?
However, no matter what, the British fighter units that have gone down can only ask for their own blessings. The remaining two squadrons of British fighter jets still in the air still have to protect the bomber units that have been baptized by shells and carry out bombing missions to the predetermined targets.
"We are destined to be unable to complete the mission today. At present, the number of aircraft that can still carry out bombing missions is visually estimated to be no more than 40." Looking at almost every injured bomber around, the British officer in charge of leading the team said very pessimistically.
Of course, this does not mean that in less than 20 minutes just now, the German bomber force was so efficient that it directly shot down 32 twin-engine bombers. In fact, the attack just now actually directly destroyed about 16 bombers. Most of the remaining aircraft were damaged and could no longer perform missions, and a small number were injured because the injuries were not serious, but the crews still threw away the bombs first.
Therefore, after losing almost half of their ammunition, the British tragically discovered that even if no one came to interfere with them from behind, they might not be able to achieve the task of paralyzing the target. Of course, the miserable British still don't know that at this moment they The targeted targets were a bunch of fake targets built with inflatable models and wooden planks, while the real transportation hub had been covered with camouflage nets, blending in with the surrounding terrain and woodland!
"Okay, the people on the ground are almost done, it's our turn." At this time, the Red Baron, who had been waiting for more than half an hour, could finally show off his amazing art-like tactics in the air again, but Before that, a group of "Swallows" first emerged from the clouds and began to attack the British escort fighter group. They chose a very good position, almost entering from the rear hemisphere of the Camel fighter with the sun behind them! By the time the British discovered them, these agile hunters were well positioned!
"We are high enough to throw them away with a dive! The Camel is not afraid of competing with any fighter jet on the Western Front!" The British are not in a hurry. With a maximum flight speed of 200 kilometers, the Camel fighter is almost the fastest aircraft of the same period in history. Fast, and now, it is almost the fastest on the entire Western Front,
Until today, they met their destined killer! Bavaria’s new monoplane fighter! The latter's engine is more powerful, better repaired, and faster. After losing the horizontal maneuverability brought by its wings, the J6 fighter's maximum level flight speed reaches about 250 kilometers! When the British made the mistake of relying on speed to get rid of their opponents rather than circling, most of their results were already determined.
"Damn, am I being caught up?" Looking back at the opponent's rapidly expanding figure, a British pilot had an expression of disbelief on his face. A minute ago, he was at least 1,600 yards away from the target, but now , just a minute passed, and the opponent was actually able to use the gun on the nose of the aircraft to fire quite threatening shots. At this time, the distance between the two sides was only 500 meters at most. In other words, in just one minute, the opponent had narrowed the distance. A distance of nearly 1 kilometer!
In the end, the Camel fighter failed to escape the pursuit of death. When it was 300 meters away at the end, it was smashed into pieces by dense artillery shells! At this time, due to the suppression of ground anti-aircraft firepower, the British had already divided half of their troops. They were already at a numerical disadvantage and were also attacked by surprise. The situation can be said to be quite bad, but it has to be said that there are still some relatively NB ones among them. The existence of something can turn decay into magic!
Lieutenant Colonel McCarten discovered the incoming aircraft group immediately, and also realized that the opponent's speed was much faster than his "Camel"! However, after all, this guy is an ace who has participated in at least 80 aerial battles and achieved 32 kill records! (In fact, historically Lieutenant Colonel McCarten was the fourth-ranked ace pilot in the Royal Air Force, shooting down a total of 57 enemy aircraft)
McCarten used the kinetic energy brought by the dive to easily throw away the two diving enemy planes, and then used his excellent hovering performance to bite a German fighter jet that rushed too far forward. At this time, the aircraft simultaneously It lost its height and speed advantages and was in a passive position to be beaten. Under the cover of his wingman, McCarten forced the opponent into a blind corner step by step like he was playing prey!
"Within 4 minutes, you will eventually be shot down by me." After estimating the opponent's speed and height, McCarten easily operated the fighter jet to force the opponent to dodge through feint attacks again and again. At this time, the height of both sides had exceeded Lower and lower, and finally, the opponent seemed to be planning to dodge McCarten's attack at ultra-low altitude over complex terrain. The German aircraft in front fled wildly at an altitude of 150 meters, while McCarten was in hot pursuit at an altitude of 300 meters. Abandon. When McCarden seized the opportunity and put the opponent in the center of the scope, four slender barrels protruded from the trees in the woods below!
