Some people always say, don’t give up any effort until the last second, because maybe a miracle will happen at the last second. No matter whether this sentence is right or wrong in other things or other people, but this
At least it is true for Shen Pai and his comrades. Many times, miracles often happen at the last second.
Just when the two men were facing the enemy who had rushed to only a few hundred meters away from them and were preparing for the last fight, a miracle really happened. A shot of the 38-type lance hit the engine.
With sixty-five bullets, the engine of the plane that almost saved them from being driven to a dead end finally started to spin.
Seeing that the damn transmitter finally started, the two of them didn't bother to figure out what miracle happened to make the damn plane finally move. They hurriedly jumped on the plane, and after they had already chased them close
The Japanese cavalry who were just a short distance away took off forcefully under a hail of bullets.
Fortunately, these guys came out in a hurry and did not carry heavy machine guns. Otherwise, the two of them might have been shot down even if they took off. The shooting elevation of the crooked light machine gun is too small, and the ammunition supply system is easily jammed when fired at a large elevation.
.But the Type 92 heavy machine gun is not given for free. Due to the poor fuel tank layout of the aircraft's body, it will explode in the air if it receives a few heavy machine gun bullets.
It wasn't until they were struggling to fly back to Qiqihar and looked at the 65mm bullet stuck in the main position in the engine that the two of them thought about it and became frightened. If the bullet that hit the fuel valve had been deflected a little further, the fuel supply pipe would have been hit.
Lu. I'm afraid that the two of us have no idea whether we can even enter a prisoner of war camp, let alone escape back.
Although I have never flown this kind of aircraft, fortunately, the current aircraft, especially the basic combat structure, are all very similar. It is far from being so clear-cut in later generations. Everyone is a pilot, and they all fly fighter jets, so although they are controlled by
It was a bit strenuous, but it didn't take much effort.
The final outcome of this small-scale ground duel after the air battle was that a RE 2,000 fighter jet made an emergency landing. Before the Japanese ground troops arrived, it staggered and barely managed to fly back into the sky. But this plane
The destination of their return was not the Japanese airport where they set out, but the Anti-Japanese Alliance Airport in Qiqihar.
However, because it did not have the standard identification mark of friend or foe of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, and the wings and fuselage were clearly painted with the Japanese army's logo, it was not a standard fighter equipped by the Anti-Japanese Alliance. When this plane appeared staggeringly in Qiqihar
When we were over the airport, we almost didn't get shot down by the highly alert anti-aircraft artillery at the airport because Yang Zhen was at the airport at the moment.
Had it not been for the fact that Liming, who had just landed shortly after receiving the report from the air defense guard post, had a suspicion about the Japanese aircraft that came alone and flew like an 80-year-old old man who still had tuberculosis.
The anti-aircraft artillery troops opened fire.
And the two P-39 fighter jets took off in an emergency to check what was going on. They recognized that the enemy aircraft flying to nowhere with the canopy cover turned out to be two of their comrades. I am afraid that these two were from the Japanese army.
The guy who narrowly escaped death did not die under the Japanese machine guns, but died under the gunfire of his comrades inexplicably.
Waiting for two guys squeezed into the small cab of the RE 2,000 fighter jet, they barely managed to bring the plane's wheels to the runway. The engine stalled completely again, and it took a lot of effort to stop the plane.
, everyone knew what happened on the ground after they evacuated.
After listening to the accounts of these two guys, if I hadn't seen the plane they flew back with my own eyes, as well as the flight map bag and pistol they snatched from the two Japanese pilots who were killed, I'm afraid that everyone would
They wouldn't believe that these two guys actually killed two Japanese pilots after landing, and also robbed their plane. They even flew this piece of junk into the sky in front of the Japanese cavalry who came back.
.
The performance of this kind of aircraft in air combat is well understood by almost all the pilots who participated in the battle. This kind of aircraft, which does not even need to be fought by oneself, but falls down by itself, is even more impressive to all the pilots who participated in the battle than in Zero War and Me.
Fighter 109 is even more profound.
For all the pilots who experienced that air battle, it undoubtedly requires great courage to fly this kind of fighter into the sky. These two guys were actually able to start up the plane in such an emergency situation and struggled to fly.
It undoubtedly takes a lot of courage to come back.
However, I admired him, but I still had to do what needed to be done. After listening to the report, Liming still asked people from the Political Department and the Social Department to review the two as he did with all pilots rescued from enemy-occupied areas.
At that time, his decision was vetoed by Yang Zhen, who had just listened to Yu Ming's report.
After arriving in Qiqihar, Yang Zhen was not in a hurry to return to the Jiamusi Military Region. Instead, he stayed in Qiqihar and prepared to inspect the Nenjiang Military Region. After all, Yang Zhen was transferred to the customs by the central government just after the formation of each military region last year.
We haven't had time to carefully consider the formation of each military region.
After returning to the military region headquarters, the whole army is currently undergoing a comprehensive refit, and all kinds of things are complicated. I want to take a closer look, but I don’t know what the year of the monkey is. As for why I am still waiting at the airport, the reason is simpler.
Almost all the fighter jets stationed at the airports in Qiqihar and Nenjiang Military Region took off this time. With Yang Zhen's character, he would never wait for his subordinates who were fighting hard to return before leaving on their own.
After the entire fleet returned, after listening to Liming's report, Yang Zhen felt heartbroken. He didn't feel sorry for the plane, but for the pilots. The plane was gone, but he could still find a way to get it back. This time, the Soviet Union and the United States brought it.
Among the fighter jets, due to the insufficient number of pilots, nearly one-third are kept in secret warehouses as reserves.
However, the loss of pilots cannot be undone overnight. Especially in Yu Ming’s squadron, almost all pilots were shot down. This is especially true for the Anti-Alliance Air Force, where new pilots with no actual combat experience still account for a large proportion.
It's quite rare.
But now, in the entire squadron, except for a few pilots who escorted him, only Yu Ming, the squadron leader who was protected by his subordinates to the death, was left. Yang Zhen was not opposed to the model of training through fighting, and he believed that this model
It is more conducive to the rapid growth of the aviation force.
What a soldier is, is to go to the battlefield and fight the enemy with live ammunition. Otherwise, even if he completes all flight training with the best results, as long as he has not been on the battlefield for a day, he is not a real pilot. He will never become one.
A true soldier.
But with the current shortage of veteran pilots with actual combat experience, this loss undoubtedly makes Yang Zhen feel quite distressed. But heartache is heartbreaking, and Yang Zhen also knows that this is the necessary price for growth. There is no one in the world.
An army can achieve zero casualties, which is impossible even for the US military in later generations.
Especially when facing an opponent as stubborn and cunning as the Japanese army, it is difficult to avoid heavy casualties in combat. For a service like the aviation force, which looks very prosperous, but in fact the casualty ratio is not lower than that of the army,
It is even more unavoidable.
What the Air Force is comparing is not only the country's industrial base, the research and production capabilities of new aircraft. What is more compared is the foundation and foundation of an army. In other words, the training ability of pilots. Without well-trained pilots, you will be left with nothing.
What's the use of having too many planes? If they fly into the sky, they'll still serve as targets for others.
The more high-tech a branch or branch of service is, the higher the quality requirements for its personnel. How about one year for the army, ten years for the air force, and ten years for the navy. An infantryman can be formed in three months, and can be formed within half a year.
Basically, they can pass the test. But half a year is only enough for one pilot to complete the theoretical training.
Different from the personnel-intensive army, the Air Force, as a new service that has been around for less than 30 years, has very high requirements for personnel quality. If the Army needs personnel, then the Air Force needs real talents. This
The two points can be said to be fundamentally different.
As far as Yang Zhen knows, in addition to their own industrial reasons and the rapid development of new aircraft models by their opponents, a large part of the final defeat of the German and Japanese aviation forces in the air combat during World War II was due to excessive war losses.
Replenishment of outstanding pilots is slow.
Especially in Japan, which has always focused on the elite training model. After the old pilots trained before the war were exhausted, the new rookie pilots had little choice but to die every time they flew. The failure of air combat directly led to the loss of air supremacy.
. Without air supremacy, no matter how much weapons are produced, it will not be able to make up for the huge consumption of the war.
The United States and the Soviet Union relied on their strong talent base before the war and the training model of almost group production during the war, so that the complement of pilots, despite the huge consumption over a long period of time, not only did not decline like Germany and Japan.
, on the contrary, it became stronger during the Vietnam War. The aviation school behind it continued to send a large number of pilots to the battlefield.
Of course, this is related to the fact that the Soviet Union had widespread flight education across the country before the war, organized a large number of various flying clubs and flying schools in the private sector, and relied on private organizations to train a large number of pilots. This could effectively make up for the huge losses in the early stages of the war, while also covering the Soviet area
It is vast and extremely deep.
The German Air Force lacked strategic bombers and had an extremely limited combat range. Most of them were fixed on both wings of the battle line. They could not penetrate deep into the interior and had no impact on its various flight schools. Although the Soviets had a huge need for pilots, they could still operate in an orderly manner.
Carry out necessary training.
The United States relies on its unique geographical environment. Not a single bomb has been dropped on the mainland, so it can train pilots in a down-to-earth manner without worrying about being visited by enemy aircraft during training. At least it does not have to bloom in all directions, experience
The rich veteran pilots suffered huge losses, or were tied to the front line and could not be transferred back. They could only let the novices who had just left aviation school to compete with the American and British bombers who were armed to the teeth.
Isn’t it that, in addition to being on the battlefield, most of the blood of German pilots was drained little by little when the United States and Britain bombed the homeland? As the homeland air defense situation becomes increasingly serious, those who were killed as soon as they left the aviation school
Most of the pilots sent to the battlefield are meat buns who beat dogs and never come back.
