Chapter 1046 Ilya Murometz 2

However, not everyone has Sikorsky's self-knowledge, and not all aircraft have discovered the German fighter units entering the battlefield in the first place. Although it stands to reason that if in the Luftwaffe, a bomber of the level of the Ilya Murometz bomber must at least have a radio, isn't this in Russia? Russian electronic equipment was a cheat until the Cold War. Therefore, when the German aircraft enters the field, even if some "ships" find their opponents, they cannot effectively transmit the information. Sikorsky is smarter, but others may not be so lucky!

As a result, an air battle, which was quite tragic for both sides, started. As many as 20 German fighters entered the battlefield one after another, while around 9 Russian bombers remained on the battlefield. Like a lion and an elephant, the lion group launched an attack on the elephant.

"This seems to be different from what we have encountered before. Even on the western front, have we ever encountered such a big thing." Goring pulled up the windshield and carefully observed the behemoth below. Not fast, Goring estimates that his J-1C fighter is at least 60% faster than the opponent. This can be seen from the pursuit just now. But he also couldn't despise this guy, because it was too big, even a little beyond Goring's cognition. And there are many machine guns on it. This thing is the most direct threat!

"Let's get on from behind!" Goring's plane first rolled down and dived, and the other 3 planes quickly followed. Under the acceleration of the dive, the distance between the two sides quickly narrowed, 800 meters, 700 meters, and 600 meters. When it finally approached 500 meters, the machine guns on the back and sides of the Murometz bomber began to fire!

Four fire snakes were flying in the air, and the bullets made an arc in the air to drive the approaching German fighters. A J-1C was forced to retreat by fierce self-defense firepower and had to give up the attack. The attack from the other direction was also attacked by side machine guns, and several bullets accurately hit the upper part of the aircraft. The wing, tore off a small corner of the wing.

Under the cover of his teammates, Goring finally came up with his superb skills. "Go to hell, bastard!" Like a knight challenging a dragon, Goering aimed a 12.7MM machine gun and a 7.92MM machine gun at the target. As Goring pressed the machine gun on the handle and twisted, the nose of the J-1C fighter was instantly covered by fire, and a series of 12.7MM bullets and 7.92MM bullets flew to the distant behemoth like migratory locusts.

The first hit was the 7.92MM machine gun bullet. After a string of bullets cut a string of bullet holes in the huge body, there was no use for eggs. The bullets were too powerful, and Murometz was really too big! The only thing that caused some damage was the reliable 12.7MM machine gun. The 50-caliber incendiary bomb not only knocked out the huge tail in half, but also left a huge crack on the slender fuselage. Even from a few hundred meters away, you can see the flame and dense smoke. Wounds.

"I'll go!" But before Goering was proud, his landline shook suddenly, as if hit by something. The floor below also seemed to feel chilly. But when Goering looked down, he realized that the floor of his plane had been lifted off without knowing when, and a huge hole appeared under his feet. When he thought of this, he felt a chill rushing directly from the tail bone to his forehead. ! What's more tragic is that the landing gear of this aircraft was knocked out at no time. For Goering, the best result was to return to his own control zone and parachuted.

And after Goering's team launched an unsuccessful attack, Richthofen, known as the Red Baron, also brought in his squadron! This time, they stared at a "spaceship" that was withdrawing from the battlefield!

"Let's attack their wings, from above, not from behind!" After carefully examining the giant on the opposite side, the Red Baron took the lead in the battle like David challenging Goliath! The red J-1C fighter jet quickly entered from high in the sky, and when the Murometz fighter was still 1200 meters horizontally away, the Red Baron pressed the joystick, and the J-1C jet dived down like a Swift. . Unlike most people think, the red baron's dive line is a diagonal line. Flying diagonally over the Russian bomber.

The Russians seemed to have spotted the German fighter jets appearing above their heads. Several machine guns were ready to shoot upwards. Unfortunately, because of the insufficient shooting angle, only one bullet flew by under the German plane. And when the Red Baron approached the wing of the Russian bomber, two beating fire snakes left two deep scars on the wing of the Murometz bomber!

Unlike the airframe supported by reinforced and supporting structures, the wings of an aircraft have always been fragile, especially in World War I. The wings of the aircraft were too long and the huge wing area was not only easy to hit, but also the wing strength was not How high it may be, even the 7.92MM machine gun can cause certain damage.

Like a subtle assassin, Richthofen’s attack is like using a short sharp dagger across the joint between the dragon’s wings and the body. The so-called dragon's scale is here! Start in the deadliest place of the opponent, even the huge Murometz bomber can't bear it!

The large wing was destroyed by high-explosive bombs and incendiary bombs or stripped off from the plane~lightnovelpub.net~ After a flyby attack, the upper left wing of this bomber was directly killed by nearly half! The wooden wings ignited by the incendiary bomb burned, and the crackling sound and black smoke left a long trail as the plane flew. In just one attack, this plane was on the verge of being destroyed!

The biggest advantage of having a good captain is that you can learn everything. Then the fighters of the Red Baron team began to dive from the air at a larger angle, attacking from above the Russian bombers, but unfortunately, not all of them are red. The quality and level of the baron, this kind of attack tests the grasp of shooting time. The chance of firing may be only a few seconds, and at the same time, the approximate point of the ballistic trajectory must be estimated. After all, the sights of this era are poor. After the four planes attacked one after another, the Murometz bomber was still flying in the air.

The aircraft's body was already full of bullet holes, but the machine guns that were still available were still shooting, and it shot down a J-1C fighter that could not escape. Like a behemoth before dying, it crazily wants to vent deadly firepower around!
