Chapter 1424 Trap
The so-called heavy sword without a front, before the Germans came up to use the Rockets to break up the opponent's formation beyond the distance beyond the bomber's self-defense firepower, even if the charger with abnormal firepower was rough and thick, he could only fight one with the bomber for injuries. What's more, in this era, the British planes on the opposite side could not be called chargers...
"Ah~~~!" A British pilot pulled the trigger frantically. Two Wicks machine guns tilted the bullets at a K-6 bomber 300 meters away. Occasionally, the bullets hit left a row of bullet holes on the huge fuselage. But it doesn't matter. This guy was still flying comfortably under the attack of the British like a giant whale. Then, several machine guns that were inadvertently mobilized were aimed at the target. With the roar of the machine gun, in the distance, the FB2 fighter was torn to pieces.
The British were very reckless in the first wave of charges, but the German firepower was even more unreasonable! During the trembling of more than ten minutes, when the remaining British pilots drove the plane and left in fear, they found that in the battle just now, more than ten planes had been smashed into pieces, and there seemed to be only one bomber on the other side, and the plane was hit by another British plane and the cat was hit by a dead mouse......
The remaining British people were preparing to climb again, adjust their energy, and then launch the next wave of attacks. However, at this time, just as their planes were flying slowly and low, a team of German fighters rushed down! At this time, the British planes were hovering in the middle and low altitude like stupid ducks, and the German fighter troops dived from high altitude could easily catch up with the opponent from the tail with the help of high speed, and then kill the opponent with a clean and neat point shot.
The 20mm machine gun equipped by the j-3 fighter exerted great power in combat, and a single shell could smash the opponent and the plane. With the help of the bomber, the Germans attracted the first wave of impact of the British, and then, the fighter troops, which were in an advantageous state, easily hunted the opponent.
However, the advantage at the beginning did not determine the outcome of this long-term battle. Unlike the Russians, the British were very resilient and more prepared. As more and more British planes arrived here from different airports, the fighters of both sides finally became a group!
Fighters on both sides hit from a height of 3,500 meters to a low altitude of 500 meters, and then from a low altitude of 500 meters to a high altitude of 3,500 meters. Countless aircraft were entangled in the air to fight, the roar of the engine and the roar of machine guns resounded throughout the battlefield, and every minute the plane would be smashed into pieces, or would stagger away from the battlefield with thick smoke. When an aircraft was complacent that it could kill the opponent by chance, another opponent might suddenly pass out of the clouds, and without the other party noticed it, use a series of bullets to get rid of the winner just now.
The war between the two sides was bloody and lasting. As long as the German bombers had not left, the British would continue to move forward like sharks smelling blood. Over the Greek city, a war of attrition officially began.
"The Germans seem to have more fighter jets than we imagined!" As he was fighting, Major Thors, the captain of the British Seagull Squadron, suddenly realized that something was wrong. After he entered the battlefield, he could feel that the British Air Force's control ability in this airspace was very weak. There was no need to deliberately count the number of fighter jets on both sides. At first glance, there were a lot more German aircraft with iron cross marks than British aircraft with concentric circles. Under any tactical conditions, no one was willing to continue fighting while the enemy was too small.
Major Thors and his two wingmen discovered a J-3 aircraft team that had just completed the attack and was in a low energy state. According to the prior agreement, two camel wingmen were covering at high altitudes, but Major Thors in the middle completed the attack himself.
From the offensive position, this was a head-on dive attack. The major pressed the operating rod slightly, and the camel f1 quickly descended the height, rushed towards the opponent's side diagonally. The sound of the whistling engine attracted the opponent's attention. The j-3 aircraft relied on the remaining kinetic energy to roll quickly and prepared to avoid the opponent's attack, but this was just a fake move of the major. The latter controlled the dive angle and speed well. After the opponent began to dodge, it smoothly leveled and maintained the altitude and speed. After the opponent completed the maneuver and the speed and altitude further decreased, the major started his decisive kill!
At this time, as an old bird, before the final attack, he used to look back and took the attack before confirming that there was no threat behind him. However, it didn't matter. One of the two wingmen was gone, and the other was chased and attacked by two German aircraft. He was about to be unable to hold on. The most fatal thing was that a J-3 aircraft had secretly entered the direction of 6 o'clock behind him. If it weren't for the distance that was a bit far, the fatal rain of bullets had already been hit, right?
The major, who was frightened, immediately began to dive away from the opponent's hunting and moved towards his own empty position. He could feel the huge advantage of the German new fighter jet in terms of speed, so he didn't want to hand over his life and death to a racing race!
The battle has been going on for about an hour and a half, and a large number of British fighter squadrons came from all directions. After a long battle, the number of fighter jets on both sides in the sky began to decline continuously. According to the most conservative estimate, the number of aircraft losses on both sides is most likely to exceed more than 60.
"Okay, our children's mission is almost done, prepare for air strikes." After so long, all the British fighters who were able to arrive have arrived, and no new squadrons will join. At this time, after the number of British fighters in the air has dropped, the K-6 bomber formation can finally be air strikes under low threats, and now it must also take action. Otherwise, if you fight for a while, the fuel for the escort j-3 aircraft will probably not be enough.
After the German fighter troops drove away the last wave of British bombers, a vacuum period finally appeared over the Greek city. The remaining 60 k-6 bombers began to disintegrate their formation (some aircraft evacuated from the battlefield in advance due to injuries or mechanical problems.) and began to launch air strikes on the port area. Along with these bombers, there were dozens of J-3 fighters, whose mission was to use their own machine guns to suppress the opponent's air defense firepower. This time, the Luftwaffe finally found that the situation was a bit big as expected!
