What's interesting is that although ground combat has never been considered, the 26 fighter jets can still strafe the ground, and they can do it better than other fighter jets!
The Jing-26 fighter jets began to be deployed on the Bell Island front line in late January 27, and quickly gained a huge tactical advantage. In just one month after being put into the battlefield, multiple air fleets equipped with this type of fighter jets shot down 500
Multiple enemy planes!
For a time, the Kingdom of Krul was forced to temporarily suspend the bombing of Bell Island because the losses were too great.
This loss is not about airplanes. The current airplane is just a wooden frame with an engine. If necessary, the Kingdom of Krul can produce tens of thousands of them a year...
So the loss of the plane is just a loss, it’s nothing!
But the problem is that many pilots die!
In the Bell Island air battle, the main airspace between the two sides was on the sea, and this sea was dominated by the Daheng Navy. If the Daheng people's plane fell, the pilot might be rescued and return to the sky in a few days.
If a Kruer plane falls into the sea, the pilot will either drown or be rescued by the Daheng people and then taken prisoner. Not many of them will make it back alive...
And pilots are much more valuable than airplanes.
In order to avoid the continued loss of a large number of pilots, the Kingdom of Krul had to suspend the bombing of Bell Island, and also gave up interception operations on the sea, and directly retreated the air battle front to the sky above Kingdom Island.
In this way, even if the Krull plane is shot down, the pilot can save his life after parachuting, and he can get another plane and fly again in a few days.
On the other hand, Daheng's planes went to Kingdom Island to fight. Not only did the combat time in the combat airspace be short, but also once they were hit, they would be prisoners of war unless they died...
After going there a few times, I saw from the superiors that the pilots suffered relatively large losses and took huge risks to bomb, but the actual bombing effect was not great. There are no industrial cities nearby in the Kingdom of Krul. There are only a few small and medium-sized cities in the area.
, have all been transformed into huge military bases, and the anti-aircraft firepower is very fierce. It is impossible for slow bombers these days to risk bombing such a fortress with strict anti-aircraft firepower. There is no difference between taking responsibility and committing suicide.
In the end, the Daheng Empire's aviation force simply stopped bombing Kingdom Island...
Ever since, the Bell Island air battle, which lasted for more than two months, came to an end!
In more than two months of air combat, both sides suffered heavy losses.
The Daheng Empire lost more than a thousand aircraft and hundreds of pilots were killed or injured.
The Kingdom of Krul lost more than 2,000 aircraft and nearly 1,000 pilots were killed or injured.
The difference in aircraft losses between the two sides is relatively large, mainly because the Daheng Air Force has gained a huge tactical advantage by equipping the Jing-26 fighter jets.
As for the pilots, most of the air battles took place on the sea. Since the sea was controlled by the Daheng Empire, the Daheng people could search and rescue their own pilots who jumped from the mountain and fell into the water, but the Kruls were unable to search and rescue their own pilots who fell into the water.
.
When it came time to change the home court, the Daheng people quickly stopped bombing.
This air battle on Bell Island also shocked other countries in the world!
Damn it, it is indeed the world's boss fighting against the world's second best. In this air battle around a small broken island, the losses of the aircraft are in the unit of thousands...
More than the total number of aircraft of many participating countries!
For example, the Garfia Empire is considered a powerful country. Their total number of aircraft in active service is only more than 2,000, which is not as much as the loss of the Kingdom of Krul in an air battle!
For the Krul Kingdom and the Daheng Empire, current aircraft are cheap consumables. A new fighter jet only costs 10,000 Hengyuan, which is not as expensive as a new field cannon...
The real precious thing is the pilot. The Daheng Empire’s aircraft design, especially the bomber design, often pays more attention to the protection of the pilot. The aircraft can crash, but the pilot must successfully parachute to escape...
In this Bell Island air battle, the Jing-26 fighter also became famous in the first battle. In this battle, about 700 fighter jets were used, and 200 of them were shot down. However, this fighter jet shot down the enemy plane. Thousands, accounting for about half of the number shot down.
Jingzhou Aircraft Company, which developed and produced this fighter jet, also became famous in one battle.
Jingzhou Aircraft Company was founded in the 22nd year of Qian Sheng. It was only established during the Heng'ao War and participated in the R&D and production of military aircraft. It has produced a variety of aircraft. However, the aircraft it designed and produced before were only mediocre, so it has a poor reputation. show.
But this time, with the outstanding performance of their new fighter jets, they quickly gained the attention of the Army and Navy Air Force and became stars in the domestic defense industry, especially in the aviation industry.
Its Jing-26 fighter jets have already received orders for 2,000 aircraft from the Army Air Force and more than 1,000 orders from the Naval Air Force.
This can be said to be the largest production volume of a single aircraft model in any country in recent years.
Because today's aircraft are upgraded so quickly, even if it is an aircraft with excellent performance, the total output of a single model will not be too high, because there is often no time to produce so many, and more advanced models have already appeared on the battlefield.
Therefore, the production of a single model of many aircraft is not so large, but will form a series, multiple sub-models, and continuous improvement.
For example, the carrier-based Tian-1 fighter and the Tian-2 fighter, the latter is a continuously improved model of the former.
Because the performance of the Jing-26 fighter jet is really superior, and the military's other current fighter jets are unable to achieve significant advantages, the military is in urgent need of a new fighter jet to replace these old fighter jets to gain air supremacy.
That's why the order is so big.
However, when the military ordered this fighter jet, it also put forward upgrade and improvement requirements for Jingzhou Aircraft Company, requiring the company to quickly come up with an upgrade and improvement plan.
As long as the upgrade plan satisfies the military, there will be more orders for fighter jets.
This made Jingzhou Aircraft Company extremely happy. They worked overtime to expand production capacity and contacted friends to conduct emergency production in order to deliver the goods within the time limit limited by the military.
On the other hand, the Jing-26 fighter jets are also being upgraded and improved.
Its improved model is the Jing-27 fighter jet.
Jing 27 fighter jet, Jing, represents Jingzhou Aircraft Company, 27, represents Qian Sheng 27 years, fighter jet, represents the purpose of this fighter aircraft.
This is also the final naming of various military aircraft that was started to be used by the Daheng Empire military last year and was only determined this year. It is based on the manufacturer plus year plus aircraft type.
Jingzhou Aircraft Company became famous through a fighter jet, and the Daheng Empire military also relied on this fighter to gain air supremacy over Bell Island, and began to build various warehouses and docks on the island to serve as a supply base for the fleet.
.
Then expand the scope of activities of the naval fleet!
As a result, the maritime transportation of the Kingdom of Krul will become even more difficult.
