Chapter 582: Large Aircraft Group Melee (Plus 2)

At the same time, the British fighter planes on the opposite side are also climbing. Whoever climbs higher first can accumulate more energy.

However, the performance of the fighter plane will decrease when it is high in the air, and because the distance is not far, the two sides collided almost when they climbed to a height of 4,000 meters in the air.

Ordinary fighter pilots don't like head-to-head combat.

In the movie, the head-to-head battle is very exciting.

But in fact, doing so is dangerous.

The bullets in the air are flying, but it is not so easy to hit. Once the two sides enter the battle, it is like a martial arts master competing for internal strength. Whoever withdraws his hand first will die first.

If the opponent is knocked out, then it is good to say that if the opponent is not knocked out, the final result of this kind of battle is to collide with each other. In order to avoid collision, you have to turn, pull up or dive.

However, whoever changes first will have a larger projected area and will be easily hit by the opponent.

On the battlefield, it is not about courage, but more about wisdom and tactics.

For example, now, the two sides are almost all close to each other. However, when they got close, they did not rush to fight directly. Instead, they chose to turn. Only by turning, can they go around to the back of the other side. In this era of air combat, the most The best way is to bite the tail, bite the opponent's six o'clock direction, and then go up to attack quietly, one hit will kill!

"Fight in formation, keep up!" Henry shouted on the radio in the Spitfire. At this time, his squadron was also separated.

Unlike the Germans, after their fighters were separated, they formed a dense 3-machine wedge-shaped formation, with one fighter in front and two fighters in the back, forming a triangle. At the same time, they were all very close.

In this way, the most important thing, of course, is for aesthetic reasons. From the ground, such a three-machine formation is quite beautiful.

Pushing the lever, Henry took his two wingmen and quickly turned around. At this time, the cockpit cover above his head was still open, and the open-top fighter made him observe it quite clearly.

After half a lap, he clearly saw a German four-plane formation, chasing a three-plane formation of his own. He immediately pushed the accelerator, the front engine was fully open, and a heat wave hit him. , he endured the heat wave and prepared to approach from behind the other side.

Vic looked at his lead plane and was gradually approaching the other fighter plane. At this time, his eyes were full of excitement, and his adrenaline was constantly secreting, stimulating every nerve in him.

He could finally shoot down the enemy plane, and even though it was his lead plane, he was equally excited!

However, as a wingman, he did not forget his responsibilities. When the lead plane attacked, he would follow behind and take on the task of covering.

He turned his head, looked around, and suddenly, his eyes widened: "At five o'clock, three flames are approaching us!"

"Tom tom tom." Almost at the same time, his lead plane had already fired, and flames erupted from the axle cannon. In an instant, the one in front of him spit fire, and it fell down with thick smoke.

Victory!

Lieutenant Cleary won the first battle.

The height of their four-plane formation was very high. After the two sides made contact, they immediately found a three-plane formation that was turning too slowly and launched an attack.

But in the melee of such a large group of aircraft, the attacker will become the enemy's prey at any time.

After Lieutenant Klee heard Vic's warning, he seized the opportunity and opened fire calmly. At the same time, the other party was already very close to Vic behind!

"Separate, turn and leave!" The team leader's voice came from the headset. In an instant, the four-machine formation spread out in two directions, with two left and right. They immediately followed the predetermined plan to leave.

The BF109 has also undergone some improvements. Compared with the history, just like the current FW190, the cockpit is raised, and the pilot is not without any rearward vision, at least some can be seen.

The four-aircraft formation was divided into two two-aircraft formations, flying in two directions, and the three-aircraft formation behind them, the other party had to make a choice.

Damn it! Vic couldn't help cursing in his heart, the other party kept up with his own two-plane formation!

In air combat, the pursuer always has an advantage, because the pursuer is behind, he can see all the maneuvers in front, and respond in advance.

When fighting against other fighters, the BF109 can get away with its powerful climbing performance, but now, they can't climb because the Spitfire's climbing performance is equally powerful.

Moreover, once they climb, their precious speed will be lost. Now it is a melee with a large group of aircraft. There is no guarantee that there are planes waiting at high altitudes. of.

Can't make mistakes.

At the same time, they cannot hover on the horizontal plane.

Compared with the Spitfire, circling is an act of seeking death. It does not mean that the circling performance of the BF109 is not excellent, but because the BF109's stick force is too large. Doing several continuous circling movements will consume a lot of the pilot's physical strength. In this era, air combat is also Physical work.

However, they also prepared a trick to deal with the British!

Henry's lead plane was flying at the front. He almost grabbed the opponent's 6 o'clock direction, and he could start. At this moment, the prey in front of him suddenly disappeared.

Where did the other party run off to?

Before the other party disappeared, Henry briefly captured the other party's trajectory. It seemed that the other party was rolling and fell, just under his nose?

Henry didn't keep up. At this time, the meaning of the formation was reflected, and the wingman on his right moved immediately.

The wingman pilot could see clearly, the other side rolled down, just so that the other side's fighter plane was blocked by the nose of his lead plane!

He pushed the lever, pedaled the rudder, and followed the other side to make the same action.

The world turned, the sea and the sky changed positions, and he had already made a 180-degree roll.

The other party was still in his sight, but the distance between him and the other party was increasing. At the same time, the roar of the engine in front disappeared.

Oops! It was only at this time that he suddenly realized that he had fallen into the opponent's trap!

In the sky, after flying for a long time, the pilot will even have the illusion of space, and the sky and the earth will be reversed, especially after the operation is skilled, the pilot who thinks that he and the aircraft are integrated into one is easy to do this. mistake.

He only knew what the other party was doing, so he followed suit and caught up with the other party. However, he forgot the performance of his own fighter plane, so he couldn't fly backwards, or in other words, he couldn't fly with negative G.

The engine is not powerful, and the negative G will cut off the oil!
