Chapter 1065 Massacre 2
Pilots are judged firstly on experience and secondly on talent. Of course, there are many types of talents, such as Victor. The biggest subversion of this guy is that his dynamic perception and prediction are very good. To use a more popular saying in later generations, it is, human fire control? ! His tactics are very simple, that is, in the shooting window where the opponent cannot attack, he can attack, and he can accurately pour most of the ammunition on the target! Because of this talent, this guy likes to fight head-on with his opponents, passing in front of the target at extremely high speeds and high directional displacements, and then seizing just a few seconds, or even 1 second, to pull the trigger! In ordinary air combat, when the ammunition hit rate is only about 5%, he can increase the ammunition hit rate to 15%. And this 3 times increase in hit rate is enough to prevent the opponent from hitting him, and then this guy beats the opponent into a sieve!
Therefore, this guy likes to throw guns in fancy ways. For him, how to get close to the opponent is a problem, but once he gets close, there is no problem... This time, Second Lieutenant Victor, who personally led three planes, said to his subordinates: "I will shoot down the most difficult one first, and then there will be a gap in their formation. You can just go up and fight directly." ” And in fact he did.
Vitek's blue Tracer quickly passed diagonally behind at a depression angle of 20 degrees and a speed of more than 240 kilometers. When the planes of both sides passed each other, the Russian rear-firing gunner looked in surprise. A bullet flew over a distance of 500 meters and accurately hit the Russian machine gunner's face. With a bang, it was like a watermelon being exploded by a heavy hammer, and red blood and brains were scattered everywhere. However, the other Russians on the plane obviously had no time to be afraid, because they only had dozens of seconds left!
The violent flame storm sprayed out by 6 large-caliber machine guns extended from the tail to the nose of the plane! In more than ten seconds, Victor hit from 500 meters to 150 meters! Shoot out thousands of bullets in one go! According to his average hit rate, this already means that nearly 200 rounds of bullets were fired on this poor wooden aircraft. What would be the result of 200 rounds of incendiary bombs, tracer bullets and ordinary bullets fighting against a flying bookshelf!
With a bang, the entire aircraft quickly disintegrated in a series of explosions, turning into a burning fireball in the sky. The hot air quickly spread to the surroundings with the shock wave. A guy with a wingspan of more than 30 meters was instantly killed in the air. , it is impossible to say that you are not afraid! The violent explosion almost reached Vittor's plane, and a piece of wood flew and broke a support column between the wings of Vitt's plane.
"Next time, I will never do this again." Looking at the broken support column, Victor wiped a cold sweat. However, what he didn't expect was that this blow eventually became the beginning of the collapse of the Le Ilya spacecraft unit! Because the Russians no longer trusted their teammates, they gave up group defense and chose to flee on their own.
What is the first priority for the bomber formation in World War 2 when facing the interceptor group? Never scatter! Theoretically, even if the other party hits you with a plane, you will never leave your position. The distance between all planes is no more than three digits. Relying on dense machine gun cover is the way to survive. After being dispersed,
Doesn’t matter if you are a B17 or a Lancaster? They are all dishonest in front of interceptors! Do you think the FW190A submachine gun's two MG machine guns, four 20mm cannons and sometimes two 30mm cannons are just a joke? Especially the latter, maybe single-digit shells can be fatal when shot!
But actually? This order may not necessarily be executed. There will always be people who are afraid, and there will always be people who break away from the formation for other reasons. For example, let's say the opponent flies over and throws a bunch of rockets... And now? How do the Russians know these things? When they thought that the box formation could not protect them, the behavior of some crews accelerated the collapse of the fleet! Just as Victor said, I have opened the gap, and the rest of you can just use flat A!
And the rest of the battle can indeed be resolved with a draw…. When the first Ilya bomber broke away from the formation, then the second and third one! After a gap was opened in the entire defensive formation, the remaining aircraft no longer felt safe! They fled in all directions one by one, even dropping bombs into the Russian towns below. At this time, even their lives were at stake. Who would consider this? As a result, a very strange thing happened in the history of war. In order to escape the Tracer attack, an Ilya bomber even dropped all the bombs into a Russian warehouse. In the horrified eyes of the Russian officers and soldiers on the ground, a series of bombs It fell from a height of 1,500 meters and then exploded the entire cargo station into a sea of flames! ——Of course, the bombs dropped hastily were not that accurate. It was just a high-explosive bomb that occasionally detonated the ammunition piled in the open space.
Although the bombers in this plane have learned to mount numerous machine guns on their bodies for defense, they are still incomparable to those "Fire Hedgehogs" in the later stages of World War II. Not only are their hard firepower insufficient, but more importantly, The aircraft of this era do not have fire control. Yes, you read that right, it is fire control. Do you really think that the defense of aircraft like the B17 is due to the number of guns? too young too simple! A considerable number of machine gun towers on American bombers are remotely controlled through fire control, and can automatically or semi-automatically attack a target at the same time. Do you really think that the machine gunner just relies on his naked eye to aim? What are you thinking about? Without this ability, how could the US imperialist bombers be able to shoot down a few bombers in the Pacific and escape unscathed?
Of course, this set-up will not work in Europe. If a single aircraft encounters a German assault aircraft, there is basically no chance of survival. After all, their speed is much faster than Japanese aircraft, and their firepower is too fierce. Maybe they can be demolished with one shot. A bomber…. People just carry it and go straight up. Does Japan have this ability? The defensive firepower of bombers in this era is actually just a scratch. It is enough to face the same weak fighter jets, but for Tracers who specialize in hunting these aerial mammoths, a 5-second burst is enough to solve the problem. !
After all, the industrial level of the Russians is tragic. What performance can a 100 or 150-horsepower engine provide? After hanging the bomb, the speed does not exceed 3 digits. Throw away the bombs, and the Tracers are still faster than them by more than 60 kilometers per hour! Just two machine guns in the back seat against six large-caliber machine guns? What are you thinking about?
There may be many differences or habits among the aces, but one thing is for sure, that is, they have a very good grasp of the fighter! For example, now, when the Russian planes disperse, all Tracers automatically form a hunting team of two planes.
