Chapter 1640: Relaxed performance

In aviation weapons, there are also different ideas.

When air-to-air missiles are not yet mature, automatic firing weapons are the main equipment. Then, there are different options. It can be a small-caliber machine gun. It is characterized by ample bullets and can be used almost unlimitedly. It has thousands of rounds.

However, it has a bigger shortcoming, that is, it is not powerful enough, whether it is 7.92 or 12.7 mm, this kind of bullet can deal with the human body, but it is not easy to deal with the aircraft.

Although the aircraft was not as resistant to beatings as the tanks, it still flew back through hundreds of bullet holes. In the past, it was a wooden aircraft with poor overall mechanical strength. In the aluminum alloy era, the mechanical strength of the aircraft has greatly increased. , There is nothing left to blow up a fuel tank, but after the fuel tank adopts self-closing technology, even the fuel tank cannot be hit.

In this way, more dense bullets are needed. Four machine guns are not enough, just eight, and the rain of bullets covers the past, and the accumulation of less can add up to the ants.

As for the aviation artillery, the reverse is true.

The cannon has a large caliber and heavy weight, so it will not carry a lot. Like the current 20mm cannon, it only has 200 rounds of ammunition. If the pilot is a novice and panicks in the air battle, if he keeps on pressing it, he won't be able to fight for a minute, and he will all go out.

Experienced shooters always shoot short shots and can hit five shots at a time.

The amount of ammunition is its shortcoming, but its power is definitely its advantage. As long as it hits a shot, it will be a big hole.

Therefore, in the original choice of jet weapons, German technicians and the aviation department conducted a strong discussion. After many comparisons, they finally decided to eliminate machine guns and use aircraft guns.

The machine gun is outdated. I swept the opponent into a hornet's nest, but the other party was fine, patted his **** and left. This is very disappointing to the pilot. It must have enough power!

Considering the combination of weight and ammunition, a 20mm cannon is the most suitable choice.

One of the advantages of the jet is that the propeller on the nose is eliminated, so the large-caliber cannon can be directly arranged on the nose, and two more doors can be arranged on the root of the wing.

The three machine guns converge about 500 meters ahead, so 500 meters is its best range.

Now, at the position of 500 meters, Walter fired.

With a burst of fire from the muzzle of the three aerial cannons, a powerful 20mm cannonball flew forward. It flew at a speed of 800 meters per second, and half a second later, it hit accurately. Mustang fighter.

"Boom!" The first shell hit the wing on the right, and instantly exploded a half-meter in diameter. Then, the second and third shells all followed.

"Boom, boom!" When the three artillery shells flew, the entire right wing fractured from the root of the wing. The Mustang fighter did not react at all and rolled down and fell.

In this case, the pilot has no way to parachute.

The remaining few shells flew past the edge of the plane, drawing beautiful arcs in the air. This first attack was extremely accurate, with a delicate beauty and murderous aura.

The entire shooting process only took a few seconds.

At this time, Ren, just finished shouting on the radio, he saw this terrible blow. This terrible fighter, the process of attack, was so unrestrained and arrogant.

As an opponent, I have to admire it.

Just after the attack was completed, the plane ended its dive at an incredible angle, turned sideways and climbed, and flew upwards!

The layman looks at the excitement, the insider looks at the doorway.

Just looking at it, Rehn knew that the Mustang fighter, which is the crystallization of the wisdom of the entire United States, is not worth mentioning in front of this kind of aircraft. The power of this kind of aircraft has exceeded their recognition!

At this moment, he could see that the opponent was climbing, and two hot flames emerged from the tail of the aircraft, stimulating his retina. Although there was no information, he could also guess that it should be the opponent's engine.

This is simply alien technology!

It is a tactic that German fighters often use. They don't fight on the horizontal plane at all, just like a dragonfly, and pull up after the dive.

For German pilots, you can fight and leave if you want!

This is the situation now.

After he lifted the knife and fell, knocking out a Mustang fighter as easily as cutting melons and vegetables, Walter did not continue to love the battle at all, but directly chose to climb and escape.

He did not have the opportunity to continue fighting because of his speed.

If he wants to continue his attack, he has to reduce his speed and then fight the opponent horizontally, which is not suitable for him.

In fact, for all fighters, propeller planes have the advantage of maneuvering in the horizontal direction, while jet planes are high-altitude and high-speed. This is like the comparison of biplanes and monoplanes, but advanced monoplanes will always Instead of biplanes, jets will also replace propeller planes.

This is just the first relaxing performance.

Relying on the continuous surging thrust provided by the two engines with a thrust-to-weight ratio of 3 at the rear, and at the same time, because the fuel continues to burn, the body becomes lighter, which brings a terrible thrust-to-weight ratio. In front of the Mustang fighter, it turned away gorgeously. , Leaving a surprised look.

For Walter, this was the first result. At the same time, when he left, his wingman just swooped down!

Walter attracted the attention of the pilot behind. Ren didn't know, his bad luck also followed It was only five seconds away from the first unlucky one.

Although Rennes issued the alarm, he did not evade immediately and was completely shocked by the opponent.

By the time he wanted to hide, there was no chance.

Karl Snoll was driving his own fighter plane. After Walter climbed up, he just dived down, and he aimed at Rennes!

The target in the aiming ring is getting bigger and bigger, and the distance is constantly getting closer, one thousand meters, eight hundred meters, five hundred meters, four hundred meters...

"Antelope, fire up!" Walter's call came from the radio. During the climbing overload, Walter saw that his wingman was so close and immediately reminded him.

"Understood!" At this time the distance had reached three hundred meters, and Carl pressed the cannon button.

"Tom Tom Tom!" The three artillery fired together, the shells roared and smashed into the Mustang fighter.

"Boom!" This fighter was hit directly and exploded in the air!
