Chapter 1942: The Horn of Attack Three
Because according to the tactical habits of the British, if a fleet is completely destroyed, the remaining few aircraft will be arranged at some secondary airports to wait for reorganization. And if the fleet was only damaged, for example, if there are still squadron-sized aircraft left, then the fleet will still return to the original air force base for rest. Therefore, in order to find out the most critical targets from hundreds of real or fake British airports, Raul must let go of a group of British bombers!
As a result, the third wave of interceptors had to put down their best work and start an air battle with the incoming British fighter jets. It stands to reason that the maneuverability of the K-4M interceptors with increased defensive armor and firepower is relatively poor, except for speed In addition, the performance is not the opponent of the camel fighter, but in the ensuing battle, these warriors who are proficient in dealing with giant beasts actually stabilized the opponent!
"These little guys are so naive, they actually want to fight us head-on!" A German pilot was surprised to see that the camel on the opposite side rushed almost straight to the K4M interceptor, instead of using the maneuver advantage to tail chase or Dive attack. And after a brief surprise, just a 3-second burst. The crazy British pilot and his plane were smashed into fly ash by the dense shells, and the other party's efforts only left a few bullet marks on the K4M's cockpit armor!
And then, the tragic death of their companions made the heads of the British fighter pilots a little bit more alive. They tried to avoid these fronts like the deadly long snout of a sailfish. The small weight of the camel plane allowed them to have a very good climb. They started As the commander taught them, use the climb to gain altitude, and then use the altitude to convert it into speed to attack from the opponent's rear.
However, the correct tactics did not achieve good results. In this battle, many British fighter jets gained attack positions, but they were unable to achieve results due to various reasons. Afterwards, a German pilot described the process of him throwing off the British fighter jet in this way.
"A three-aircraft formation appeared in the direction of my 6 o'clock. At that time, when I found them, they were about 800 meters away. These guys almost launched an attack according to the textbook. The aircraft on both sides provided cover, and the aircraft in the middle was responsible for the attack. .I quickly found out that their lead plane was a rookie. I moved the joystick lightly, and the camels behind kept shaking their noses like vigilant cobras. Although this did not consume much energy, it exposed He's nervous and inexperienced."
"At a distance of 500 meters! When their machine guns were about to stick up, I quickly swayed to the right, and then quickly swooped and rolled to the left. The British behind followed quickly, and his The reaction was really fast, he quickly found out that my right turn was a feint, and then tried to point the nose in the right direction, but unfortunately, he had already lost the window of attack, because, in the case of high speed flight , his previous wrong turn to the right produced a very high torque, and the torque generated by the clockwise rotation of the engine made him unable to keep up with my movements, but my twin-engine aircraft did not have this problem, partly because of my The aircraft is heavier, on the other hand, because the two engines are counter-rotating, and the torque of the engine propellers just cancels each other out."
(The propeller aircraft engine will generate a torque. For example, if the propeller of the aircraft rotates clockwise, the aircraft will turn very fast when it turns right, because it is moving along the torque, and if it turns left, it must first overcome the rotation of the propeller Torque can turn, and the phenomenon of aircraft with greater power and lighter body weight is more obvious. This is why counter-rotating propellers appeared after the end of World War II, through two propellers that rotate in opposite directions on one shaft. balance out the moment.)
"And then,
The actions of the British proved that the two wingmen were equally rookies.... One of the wingmen directly followed the lead plane and turned in the wrong direction, while the other plane rushed over in panic. He was lucky and chose a suitable angle, just right into the shooting range of the rear machine gunner. , Then, two mg machine guns easily smashed the guy's cockpit to pieces! My buddies and I managed to get a kill out of nowhere... "The German pilot then made a gesture of helplessness.
However, it is a pity that this time, the Executioner Interceptor Brigade did not have long to enjoy this hunting activity, because the arrival of the J4 fighter and the J6 single-engine fighter soon made the British finally give up resistance. They lost their bombers and began to scatter and flee the battlefield. In this way, it took only 45 minutes from the attack of the German interceptor force to the defeat of the British. During this period of time, the British lost more than 40 aircraft of various types! And this kind of easy crushing of opponents has never happened before!
"It's just the afterglow of the setting sun." At this time, the red baron Richthofen who rushed to the battlefield took off his goggles and sighed as he watched the British fleet fleeing wildly in the distance.
At the same time, 4 of the 5 British bomber units discovered were successfully intercepted. A British bomber group code-named Heron defended the last dignity of the Royal Air Force. Under the cover of 28 camels and DH9 fighter jets, more than 40 An fb27 bomber successfully attacked a transportation hub, blasting hundreds of tons of supplies and several trains into pieces. However, in the ensuing retaliatory attack, the Heron fleet also suffered heavy losses, the bombers lost almost average, and the fighters only returned 6!
"Your Excellency Commander, our current situation seems to be very bad. In just a few hours this morning, we have lost more than three digits of aircraft! All our attacks seem to have escaped the eyes of the Germans , and in a very short period of time, they mobilized an interceptor fleet beyond our imagination and rushed out from all directions, as if we had entered a preset ambush circle, which is simply unbelievable." In the command of the British Expeditionary Force Air Force, a staff officer sent the latest intelligence summary to Trenchard and reported.
"It's really unbelievable. Most of our orders this time are transmitted through telephone lines. They should not be intercepted as easily as radio, and some key orders are even sent by personnel. Before we act, Germany absolutely cannot get information ’” Immediately, Trenchard looked at the sky again.
