Indeed, although Hartman did not serve for long, with his amazing driving talent and superb driving skills, he has reached the point of mastery in controlling the fw190 fighter jet. This fighter jet is like an arm in Hartman's hands, and the aircraft accelerates and decelerates.
There is no pause at all, and the connection between each movement of the aircraft is very natural. The fighter jet can accurately complete every instruction of Hartmann, and the accuracy is astonishing.
To be honest, Hartman's driving skills have surpassed their squadron leader or even the group leader. Moreover, he is still very young and his driving skills still have huge room for improvement!
Under Hartmann's shaking, the fw190's attack feint successfully deceived the Soviet La-7 fighter pilot. At least, the La-7 pilot relied on his experience to make his plane make the same subconscious move in the sky that was barely qualified.
evasive action.
The two planes soon intertwined together in the sky. From a distance, they looked like two dancers dancing in the air, with graceful movements.
On the ground, the German anti-aircraft guns had also aimed their sights at the two aircraft. Because the two aircraft were flying at such a low altitude, the operators on the ground could completely see their every move. At this time, the Soviet aircraft
Since they were at a disadvantage, there was no need for them to intervene, lest they accidentally damage their own air force fighters.
It has to be said that in the defensive battle, the German Air Force still had a great advantage.
Not to mention the high quality of training and fighter performance, on the one hand, even if you parachute like the squadron leader, you will not be in danger of being captured by the enemy. On the other hand, your own anti-aircraft firepower can provide help at any time.
Although there is no need for such ground fire assistance now, it is better than nothing.
Even if the anti-aircraft artillery unit does not fire, this is equivalent to an extra layer of insurance, so why not do it.
But just as Hartman was about to give chase, warning signs popped up in his heart as if he had a sixth sense!
As an all-metal cantilever reverse-wing monoplane fighter, the fw190 is unique among many German fighter jets in using a 14-cylinder radial air-cooled piston engine, so the nose looks a bit thick. But its tail is very pointed.
Thin, the arched part of the back of the fuselage is a transparent canopy that slides open, and the back of the fuselage behind it slopes downward, which makes the fw190's downward and rearward visibility very good.
This advantage allowed Hartmann to catch a glimpse of the dark shadow that seemed to appear behind him.
Caution first!
Although his brain did not react to what exactly happened, Hartman instinctively sensed the crisis and immediately gave up pursuing the damaged La-7. Then the nose of the aircraft deflected and an evasive action was seamlessly performed.
"His! His! His!" A series of bullets from anti-aircraft machine guns rubbed against the fuselage of Hartmann's plane and shot in the direction he almost rushed towards just now.
"What a risk!" Hartmann said silently in his mind.
If he hadn't made a temporary turn, he might have been hit by a bullet from a Soviet fighter plane sneak attack from behind as he was accurately tracking his flight path.
Hartmann's action saved his own life, but at the same time gave the Soviet pilot in front a considerable chance to breathe. The Soviet pilot who had no hope of survival miraculously found that he was actually killed by this fw190.
He let go, and then he saw that the fw190 fighter jet that had been chasing the fighter plane made an emergency evasion and dodged the bullets fired by the Soviet friendly forces behind it!
On the other hand, the Soviet pilot who was ready for a sneak attack, saw the right moment, and was ready to complete the decisive blow, widened his eyes in disbelief, staring at the fw190 German fighter jet that had successfully evaded it.
For a moment, the Soviet pilot even forgot that he was on the battlefield, and one sentence repeatedly appeared in his mind: "How did he do it? Who is he?"
The La-7 Soviet fighter jet being pursued was piloted by one of the most skilled veterans in the Soviet flying team.
In other words, it is absolutely impossible to suppress or even pursue this fighter plane flown by the Soviet elite without expending a lot of energy.
In fact, when the two sides were chasing each other and fighting in the same direction, Hartman did feel challenged.
Yes, Hartman is talented and very adaptable to the rhythm of air combat. He is a "natural ace pilot".
However, after all, he does not have sufficient practical experience. It is not that easy to deal with a veteran Soviet pilot just by relying on some theoretical methods that he has honed in training and study not long ago.
Fortunately, Hartmann applied almost all those theoretical methods to the extreme. He also performed many extremely difficult movements very qualifiedly.
As a result, the Soviet pilots may have more experience and longer training time, but Hartmann was able to do many dangerous actions that were difficult to achieve through training alone and impossible without talent.
For a newbie, Hartman is already very good.
But this does not mean that he has reached the level where he can easily defeat this Soviet elite. Before he had sufficient actual combat experience, Hartmann, like most pilots, had to concentrate on the enemy aircraft in front of him.
This is also the reason why the Soviet Union's sneak attack aircraft were originally full of confidence.
No one can look forward and look back at the same time. At least, in the field of air force confrontation, no one can break this law!
But at this moment, they were really frightened by Hartman's evasion. The shooting just now was already a long-planned and quite fatal surprise attack.
According to their common sense, even if they put themselves into this environment and assume the best-case scenario, they don't think it is possible to escape.
Unexpectedly, this kind of decoy that uses one's own side to be pursued and calculates the opponent's flight trajectory. In theory, the shot is almost guaranteed to hit, but it can actually be avoided by the German pilots.
Could it be that the plane the other party was flying was equipped with some new technology? Or maybe he had a third eye growing under the plane? He couldn't be dreaming, could he?
After thinking wildly for a few seconds, the pilot who launched the sneak attack shook his head and told himself not to think wildly at this critical moment when the war was not yet over, forcing himself to believe that the other side was just relying on luck.
So he continued to shoot, turned the muzzle of the gun, and after covering the fw190 vaguely, held the handle of the machine gun firmly, and another round of bullets was sent into the sky.
The FW190 aircraft once again changed from level flight to side flight, and the string of bullets deflected again!
Unexpectedly, two consecutive shots failed to bring any trouble to the opponent. Who is the opponent's pilot?!
A big question mark appeared in the hearts of Soviet soldiers.
