The idea was good, but I didn't expect that Long Chengyuan wouldn't appreciate it. When he came to the hangar and saw a brand-new Kangaroo that had been dismantled and was a bit in pieces, he was even more sad. 23us.
Fastest update
What a bunch of losers. Do you know how much such a plane is worth? A total of 750,000 yuan. If you just demolish it like this, who can afford the compensation? Long Chengyuan looked angry, but it seemed to be a bit of a show off.
Qin Zhiyuan knows that the Lanfang Military Headquarters currently sells eagle eagles for one million pounds. The more advanced kangaroos are not sold at all. If they are to be sold in a few years, they will cost at least 1.5 million, which is still pounds.
.
The arms trade is really hugely profitable
With the chief designer Long Chengyuan under the command, the modification progress was much faster. Three days later, the modification was successfully completed. On the original basis, the armor on the belly of the fuselage was added, and the structure of the fuselage was reinforced. The final result was an empty weight
Reaching ten tons, the flying speed is even slower. Without the cooperation of the falcon, there is basically no chance of catching up with the Italian hurricane.
While Long Chengyuan was modifying the Kangaroo, Dou Yongyi was also organizing the Air Force to formulate a combat plan.
This is relatively simple. The hurricane has no upper hand when facing the falcon. The falcon only needs to control the hurricane within an area, and then the kangaroo will definitely complete the task when it comes to crush the mountain.
After learning about Dou Yongyi's plan, Long Chengyuan postponed the action for another two days. During these two days, Long Chengyuan continued to modify the Kangaroo, adding a collision angle on the belly of the fuselage, which was stored in the belly of the fuselage when it was on the ground.
Inside, when it flies into the sky and the landing gear retracts into the belly of the aircraft, the collision angle will automatically come out. Moreover, Long Chengyuan has a new idea in the past two days. This enhanced version of the Kangaroo does not need to be changed back in the future. After completing the mission, it will be equipped with a few more
It has machine guns and cannons, so it can be used as a flying fortress.
After Qin Zhiyuan learned about Long Chengyuan's idea, he also strongly supported it, so two more Kangaroos were converted into flying fortresses, and verification would begin after the mission was completed.
In fact, the concept of this so-called flying fortress is similar to that of the future attack aircraft, which is the so-called close air support aircraft in Western countries. Attack aircraft are also called attack aircraft. They are mainly used for assaulting enemy tactics from low altitudes and ultra-low altitudes or targeting targets within the depth of shallow battles.
, directly supports ground troops in combat. The attack aircraft has good low-altitude maneuverability and stability and good ability to search for small ground targets, and can be equipped with a wide variety of ground attack weapons.
Attack aircraft are the type of aircraft that are most vulnerable to enemy attacks on the battlefield. In order to improve their survivability, they generally have armor protection on their vital parts.
At present, the use of aircraft in various countries is not perfect enough, and there are not many types of aircraft. In addition to fighters and bombers, which are reconnaissance aircraft, bombers are also high-altitude fighter-bombers, and there is no concept of close air support.
In Qin Zhiyuan's vision, in future Lanfang army operations, the task of close air support would be undertaken by helicopters, so Qin Zhiyuan did not propose the concept of attack aircraft.
Qin Zhiyuan has been playing a guiding role in the development of Lanfang Air Force equipment, or Lanfang's science and technology development, but Qin Zhiyuan will definitely let go one day. Then everything will depend on Lanfang's technical personnel, so it is important to train technical personnel.
Subjective initiative is very important.
For example, the concept of the flying fortress proposed by Long Chengyuan, even if it fails, it doesn't matter. At least it is a successful attempt, which is enough.
July 7, 1924 is a day destined to go down in history.
This morning, two Italian Air Force Hurricane fighter jets went to harass the skies near Sardinia, the western province of Lanfang, as usual.
In fact, such behavior was normal after Sardinia announced that it would join Lanfang. Although Lanfang announced that Sardinia is now part of Lanfang, the Italians did not recognize this statement. The Italians insisted that Sardinia is indivisible from Italy.
Part of Sardinia's airspace is the airspace of the Italian Air Force, and the Italian Air Force has the right to fly freely in Italian skies.
Although Lanfang and Italy did not want to deal with each other, they were not ready to go to war after all. Therefore, the Lanfang Air Force responded to the harassment of the Italian Air Force by expelling the planes from the skies over Sardinia.
During this period, Qin Zhiyuan wanted to plot against the Italians, so the response speed and intensity of the Lanfang Air Force were reduced. As a result, the Italians were very arrogant and thought this was the result of the improvement in the quality of Italian Air Force pilots, so they came to Sardinia.
It's a bit frequent.
Improving the quality of pilots is actually very simple. It is the same as training army soldiers in marksmanship. If you are willing to spend money, you can fly with one word.
The more times you go to the sky and the number of flying hours is enough, the experience will slowly accumulate and the quality of the pilot will gradually improve.
In the era of biplanes and triplanes, the Italians were unable to fight against Lanfang fighter jets. At that time, even the airspace of mainland Italy was similar to that of Lanfang. If the Lanfang air force could enter and exit at will, the Italians would have no way to defend it.
After purchasing the Hurricane from the British, the Italians finally had the capital to confront Lanfang. Although the chances of winning were still slim, they finally had the power to fight back. Therefore, the quality of Italian Air Force pilots has improved rapidly in the past six months.
After discovering the takeoff of the Italian Hurricane, the Lanfang Air Force immediately took off four Falcons and began to implement the Falcon Plan.
That's right, Qin Zhiyuan called the plan formulated by the Air Force the Falcon Plan, which is quite appropriate.
After the four Falcons took off, they immediately started fighting in groups of two, each dealing with a Hurricane.
The performance of the Hurricane is not as good as that of the Falcon, and it is even more difficult to fight one against two. What's more, in order to ensure the successful implementation of the Falcon plan, the pilots Dou Yongyi arranged are all ace pilots of the Lanfang Air Force. In such a comparison, the gap between the two sides is a bit big.
.
The plan formulated by Dou Yongyi was very simple. One of the two falcons was chasing the tail of the hurricane, and the other was on the flank of the hurricane, forcing the hurricane to fly towards the area where the kangaroos had already ambush.
The scheduled ambush location is fifteen kilometers east of Sardinia, where the average seawater depth is about fifty meters. Once the hurricane crashes into the sea, the destroyers cruising in the nearby waters will rush to the scene as quickly as possible to block it, and then salvage the ship.
The hurricane will be salvaged, then transported back to Sardinia and handed over to Longcheng Yuan for dismantling.
The plan sounds simple, but it is still a bit difficult to execute, especially the requirements for Falcon pilots. In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, the thinking pilots are all carefully selected elites, led by Dou Yongyi himself.
Dou Yongyi was the one who shot down the Red Baron. Although his status in the Lanfang Air Force is not as good as that of Zhou Hongguang and Bao Deshui, Dou Yongyi is much more famous around the world than those two, and he is the idol of many pilots.
, dealing with two unknown little characters is really easy.
The two Hurricane pilots who had been heavily plotted did not know it yet. While trying their best to deal with the four falcons, they unconsciously flew to the area where the kangaroos had already ambush.
At half past nine, six planes arrived at the predetermined area. At this time, the kangaroo lurking in the clouds lowered the nose of the plane and began to dive towards a hurricane.
The two Italian Hurricane pilots did not know that their misfortune was about to come. They were rookies half a year ago. In recent months, they have been repeatedly abused by Lanfang pilots. Their flying skills have improved significantly, especially one of them named Silvini.
Austrian pilot, he is now the captain of the Hurricane Group of the Italian Air Force, a leader among Italian pilots.
The establishment of the Italian Air Force is not large. Although the Hurricane Group is called a group, it actually does not have many aircraft. There are only thirty-two aircraft in total, only half of which are Hurricanes, and the rest are still old-fashioned biplanes.
Although the British supported the confrontation between the Italians and the Lanfang people, they did not trust the Italians, so their support was limited.
It is impossible for the British to give the Italians enough trust. Looking at the performance of the Italians in the World War, it is really difficult for the British to believe that the Italians will be their good teammates.
Pig teammates are pretty much the same.
Sylvinho is a little depressed now. Just before boarding the plane, Sylvinho was full of confidence, but now all his confidence has been evaporated.
In the past few days, Sylvinho felt that he was becoming more and more relaxed when facing Lanfang's falcons. Sylvinho did not think that this was Lanfang Air Force's intention to let go, but attributed this to his own technological progress.
Today's situation was different. When facing the falcons, Sylvinho felt very difficult, especially the falcon numbered 214. Sylvinho felt that he had gotten rid of 214 several times, but it only lasted for more than ten seconds at most.
, 214 will reoccupy the favorable terrain and keep an eye on the butt of the Sylvinho fighter.
If this were in actual combat, 214 would only need a single shot to knock down Sylvinho's hurricane.
The reality made Sylvinho extremely frustrated. Of course Sylvinho didn't know that the pilot on board 214 was Dou Yongyi. As for why Dou Yongyi's fighter plane used the number 214, if Sylvinho knew the Chinese homophonics of these numbers,
It is estimated that Sylvinho simply does not have the courage to deal with 214.
214,I'm going to die
Sylvinho, who had been pestered by 214, did not feel a little relieved until he was far away from Sardinia. However, the danger was not eliminated. The 214 did not return, but accompanied Sylvinho one kilometer behind the plane.
Flying, this made Sylvinho feel insulted, so Sylvinho turned around and gave 214 a middle finger, regardless of whether the pilot on 214 could see it or not.
In a daze, Sylvinho seemed to see the mocking eyes of pilot 214.
How could it be possible that Sylvinho was comforting himself like this, but when he turned around, he suddenly found a big guy flying over his plane.
Compared with the hurricane, the enhanced version of the kangaroo is indeed a bit big.
