When the last ray of darkness under dawn finally disappeared with the dazzling sunshine on the distant horizon, the German attack aircraft group led by Colonel Fernando, commander of the 4th Air Force of the German Army Group South, finally
At this last moment, we arrived at the front line where the war was in a stalemate.
Before auxiliary equipment such as night vision equipment and high-power airborne radar were successfully invented and finally applied to fighter aircraft, taking off, landing, and even combat missions in the dark was undoubtedly a very risky and dangerous task.
.
It is also because of this that after Colonel Fernando, who was taking command at the rear airport, received a telegram requesting air support from his old friend Dietrich, he was so anxious that he could only look at the misty sky that was not yet bright.
Looking at the morning light makes me sigh.
Like an ant on a hot pot, I spent the most difficult ten minutes pacing back and forth in the headquarters at the rear airport. Seeing the sun rising on the distant horizon, it had basically reached the light required for takeoff and combat.
Colonel Fernando, who could not wait to meet the conditions, sent a reply telegram to Dietrich's frontline headquarters and immediately went into battle in person to lead the expedition.
While holding the joystick in his hand tightly, he piloted his BF109E3 fighter jet with the wing leader's logo soaring at an altitude of three thousand meters above the ground. He slightly turned the joystick in his hand and took the opportunity to look down at the earth, showing his outstanding eyesight.
Colonel Fernando could clearly see his own position outside the town of Broad, which had been shrouded in flames of war and gunpowder smoke.
Realizing that the war situation had reached the most urgent point of deterioration, Fernando, who had hardly thought about the safety of his old friend, suddenly pushed the joystick in his hand and led the menacing men behind him, who were more than fifty men.
A group of German attack aircraft flew straight down.
This German aircraft group, which is affiliated with the 4th Air Force of the German Army Group South, mainly used two types of fighter aircraft in this ground attack operation.
One of them is the JU87B-2 Stuka dive bomber, also known as the Death Vulture, which is also the main aircraft supporting the ground attack. It accounts for an absolute majority of 30 in the entire German incoming fleet.
Eight.
In addition, another type of fighter aircraft accounts for a small proportion of the entire fleet, totaling twenty aircraft. It is the mainstay of the current main air superiority fighter force of the German Air Force. It is the legendary BF109E3 fighter aircraft in the entire history of World War II air combat.
.
Although the Luftwaffe, which had been carefully planned and prepared, used pre-emptive strikes at the beginning of Operation Barbarossa to defeat the overwhelmingly superior air power, destroying almost all Soviet fighter planes in the entire western theater at the airport and runway, thereby creating a
Subsequent attacks by large ground forces cleared the way and completely won air supremacy on the battlefield.
But the rigid and rigorous Germans, who have always pursued absolute perfection and excellence, will not let their guard down because of this small achievement.
In order to ensure the absolute safety of our own Stuka dive bombers, which have almost no air combat capabilities, during air raids without being disturbed by any remaining Soviet air force, the large-scale and abundant German Air Force carried out almost every ground attack operation.
China will dispatch fighter jets commensurate with the number of Stukas for escort work.
But it would be a big mistake to think that the BF109E3 fighters, which are responsible for bodyguard missions and full-time air defense, do not have ground attack capabilities.
As the latest model in the large family of BF109 fighter jets, the E3 109 is equipped with an external ammunition rack under the belly. With the Daimler Benz DB-601A 12-cylinder in-line water-cooled engine output of up to 990
With the surging power of one horsepower, the BF109E3 fighter jet can carry a 250kg aerial bomb under its belly to serve as a ground attack aircraft.
While swooping down with death screams, he stared at the target on the ground and at the same time released the belly aerial bomb hook in his hand. The 250 kilogram aerial bomb containing a 125 kilogram warhead TNT charge was directed towards the ground.
The Soviet offensive troops on top were like lambs ready to be slaughtered and had no ability to fight back in the air. They fell straight down.
boom--
Even these smaller 250kg aerial bombs dropped by BF109E3 fighter jets are definitely not as powerful as traditional Army large-caliber howitzers.
In terms of the single-charge power of these 250-kilogram aerial bombs with 125 kilograms of TNT explosives inside the warhead, the damage caused when they explode is equivalent to the 6.8-kilogram TNT warhead of the 152mm high-explosive grenade of the KV2 heavy tank.
18 times the amount of medicine.
Even if the B-4 203mm heavy howitzer is taken out, the paper power of these 203mm high-explosive grenades with 17kg of TNT explosives inside the warhead is only one-seventh of the German 250kg aircraft bomb.
When these 250-kilogram aerial bombs with absolutely devastating destructive power came to a center in the center of the Soviet offensive formation, the Soviet infantry-tank coordination force, which was originally lined up in a dense charge formation, even had some infantry hanging outside the tanks,
, when even a large piece of it was swallowed up and disappeared in the wave of flames and explosion fire, like a cream cake that had been chewed by a mouse.
After carrying out a short and precise dive attack, he then yanked the joystick in his hand to climb up and pull up the entire flexible fuselage. After having accurately hit the target once, Colonel Fernando refused to give up.
After a beautiful horizontal roller turn, he once again steered the dexterous fighter plane to dive straight down from the airspace less than a thousand meters high.
Da da da--
The two MGFF 20mm wing-mounted aviation cannons originally installed to enhance the air firepower of the BF109E3 combat mechanism have now become a vicious weapon for slaughtering soft targets on the ground.
These 20mm aviation cannons are many times more powerful than the so-called anti-materiel sniper rifles of later generations in terms of shell power. The bloody scene of hitting a fragile human body in a fierce burst of fire is naturally conceivable.
Amid the splatters of blood, there was suddenly a mournful wail, followed by the continuous sound of cannons.
The Soviet infantry group, which was swept directly by the 20mm aviation cannons on the wings and the two 7.92mm aviation machine guns at the nose, immediately saw a river of blood flowing through it, and the bloody stumps and broken arms were blasted by the powerful 20mm artillery shells.
The warhead was even torn into pieces under impact and then directly shot away from a distance.
The most terrifying scene than being unable to find your arm while you are dying is to drag your blue-gray intestines all the way to the ground after being cut off by the terrifying 20mm cannon, like a ghost crawling out of hell.
