Chapter 2201 The 1st Aircraft Carrier Attack 3

Therefore, the correct tactics for this J6T aircraft should be climb-observation-roll dive attack-detach! Don't get entangled with the opponent. Rely on the powerful nose firepower and better armor to bravely fight the opponent head-on. But you can only fight once. Refuse to fight or spin in circles! When it's time to leave, pull it off immediately! However, it is a pity that the current American pilots are just like the Spitfires who insisted on flying in circles with the Zero fighters in World War II in history. They have been flying in Europe for a long time, and they will not be able to change in Asia for a while... ..

"Is this the German carrier-based aircraft pilot? It doesn't feel right!" Lieutenant John easily maneuvered the Dromedary fighter to get behind a J6T, and then knocked off the opponent's tail with a clean burst of bullets. As the aircraft continued to move forward, a long scar appeared on the opponent's body, but it did not completely destroy the aircraft. It struggled to escape at a low altitude.

John felt that today's opponents seemed a bit weak, not even as good as some of the German aces he met on the Western Front. It stands to reason that carrier-based aircraft pilots should be the best among the best. But now it seems that the opponent is a bit weak, but this is good news for the British when they come. At least it can cover more attack aircraft to launch attacks.

Just when John was looking for his next opponent, a huge figure passed through the sky. Through the corner of his eye, he saw the target. It was a new German fighter jet. The opponent rolled rapidly from a place 300 meters higher than himself. As it descended, a large amount of altitude potential energy was converted into kinetic energy, and it rushed towards itself like a spinning top.

"Damn it!" John's battlefield intuition helped again. He did not choose to turn horizontally in a circle because the opponent was too fast. Horizontal maneuvering would slow him down and make him very likely to be bitten by the opponent. Therefore, he chose a method similar to that of later generations. A maneuver method called roller defense, which continuously rolls while lowering height in exchange for speed. When the opponent launches its final attack, it relies on kinetic energy to avoid the opponent's fatal blow.

However, this time John made some miscalculations. The Dromedary fighter is suitable for dogfights, but at high speeds, the weaker structure and poor maneuverability of the aircraft make it possible for this aircraft to lose control at any time. As the speed increases, He could even feel the shudder of the plane, the wooden body made a tooth-breaking squeezing sound, and the canvas skin on the wings of the plane had ripples under the action of high-speed airflow.

Before he felt that the plane was out of control, he struggled to reverse the steering direction, hoping to regain control of the fighter's speed within a suitable range by overcoming the torque of the propeller. Turn, break away! However, what frightened John was that the German plane behind him was still staring at him at a very high speed, and rushed towards him crazily the moment he turned to slow down!

"Damn it, aren't the German planes speeding?" John used the last observation time to determine the opponent's position, then used the circling descent to increase the speed again, and implemented the second battlefield maneuver. When the dromedary fighter While drawing an S-shaped curve in the air, a series of artillery shells flew over John's plane like flying flame elves, and one of the bullets tore a piece of the wing off the plane. The whole plane also shook, but at least it was not a big problem.

"Is it safe?" It stands to reason that after completing a dive attack, the opponent may rush in front of him, and then it is time for him to bite the opponent back. However, in his mind, after a few seconds, no trace of the opponent was found. This is abnormal. The situation shocked John. At this time, following the sound of the propeller turning from the air, he subconsciously looked up and found that the guy who had been chasing it was still behind him and was using The remaining kinetic energy climbed to a certain height again,

Occupied the attacking position again!

"Damn it!" Looking at the height close to the sea, John knew that he no longer had enough height and speed to dodge the opponent's attack, and the German plane behind him successfully caught the aircraft whose energy had been reduced to the limit. John, then after a nice long burst, sent the plane overboard.

"This is the correct way to use this fighter." Major Holder said happily after completing a kill, and then started looking for a new target. This time, what he found was a torpedo plane penetrating from a low altitude and preparing to launch a lightning strike!

With the help of elite German pilots, British fighter jets were shot down one after another. From the beginning of the interception to now, only about 10 of the 25 British fighter jets are left. However, their sacrifices are not worthless. These British aviation elites It fell from the sky with at least 18 American planes. This was even with the help of German pilots. More importantly, 20 of the 56 attack aircraft finally penetrated the Luftwaffe's interception network. Now, only the fleet's own anti-aircraft firepower was left in front of them and the target. (Not all of the remaining 36 aircraft were shot down, and there were also aircraft that returned due to malfunctions or early discarding of ammunition.)

At this time, Major Short became the supreme commander of the remaining British attack aircraft. Looking at the two concentric circles of the fleet array in the distance, he couldn't help but feel guilty. Although he didn't know that this was called a wheel-shaped air defense array, he knew , this formation is very difficult for you to attack. Each warship has received fire cover from adjacent warships. You cannot attack an isolated warship as calmly as you can attack a linear front. The battleship in the inner ring is surrounded by friendly forces almost everywhere, and there are very few opportunities to move around.

And more importantly, there are only 20 attack aircraft that still carry bombs! Among them, there are only 6 torpedo planes! Such a small number of attack aircraft cannot even attack more than two warships! The firepower is simply not enough. Therefore, even in the best case scenario, the British fleet can only severely damage one battleship!

"I saw the aircraft carrier in the middle of the array. Do you want to attack the aircraft carrier?" asked the wingman next to him. This is not to say that the wingman realizes the importance of the aircraft carrier, but because compared with the rough-skinned battleship, the aircraft carrier is obviously a soft persimmon.

"No, they are almost at the core of the fleet, and we need to penetrate two layers of defense." Major Short hesitated. In the end, we chose Count Spee's flagship United Forces!

"All the German fighter jets seem to have dispersed." The wingman noticed that the fighter jet force that had been chasing them like bloodthirsty sharks just now did not keep up.
