Hearing what Qin Baoshan said, Cochrane's eyes lit up. She knew that many American ground personnel would not dare to do such a thing, but Cochran himself wanted to try again. She remembered the scene of fighting with Qin Baoshan and the others last time, and felt her blood boil. Couldn't help it, she grabbed Qin Baoshan's arm: "Qin, your suggestion is really good. They may not dare to do it there. Can our base here modify the transport plane and be ready to support it at any time. If We have refitted, are you willing to fight with us?"
Qin Baoshan just made a suggestion, but he didn't expect this woman to be so excited. Qin Baoshan touched his nose, and then said: "Cochran, you should know. I am very important here, and many things are waiting for me to do. In this case, they are preventing me from taking risks. If I go up with you, I will definitely be punished when I come back."
It would be a lie to say that Qin Baoshan didn't want to go. It is very refreshing to hit the little devil from the sky. Something like an air gunship. That's what it's for. Anyway, the little devil would not send out any fighter jets, the sky is very safe, but Qin Baoshan also knew that he wanted to do this, and the superiors might not agree. Wei Shuqin would be dissatisfied that he always went out with Cochrane. Even if Wei Shuqin was very generous, Qin Baoshan had to avoid too much contact with this woman.
So facing Cochran's invitation, Qin Baoshan directly refused. And he didn't say that he didn't want to go, and he just dumped the blame on his superiors. Anyway, it was true, and his superiors didn't agree with him at all.
Hearing what Qin Baoshan said, Corcoran did not express any objection. She just smiled and said: "Since you can't go up, we can't force it. But how to modify our plane, I hope you can help."
Qin Baoshan has modified the aircraft several times, but simply put the anti-aircraft machine gun on the cabin. Although he has achieved good results on the battlefield, he is not the most professional. Now that Cochrane said this, Qin Baoshan became interested. If American weapons were to be used to modify American aircraft, Qin Baoshan would have many plans.
The 12.7 mm caliber anti-aircraft machine gun is of course not enough, and there should be more weapons. According to Qin Baoshan's memory, the American AC130 aerial gunboat has installed a 105 mm caliber howitzer. This cannon was originally used on the ground and was moved to the air. Once the bombardment goes down, the power is very astonishing, the firepower is brutal. But that thing was used on the c-130, the most famous medium-sized transport aircraft during the cold war, after all. The current aircraft is not so strong. If a 105mm caliber howitzer is installed on it, I don¡¯t know if the recoil of firing will shake the aircraft to pieces, so this kind of gun cannot be assembled.
The second weapon is the famous Gatling cannon. The five barrels or even the seven barrels rotated and shot out, the power was astonishing, and when they hit the ground, a large number of people were killed. The 30mm caliber grenade hits down, and the effect is awesome. But this kind of cannon will not appear until the Cold War. Now if Qin Baoshan wanted it, it was just a primitive hand-cranked Gatling machine gun, which didn't have excellent shooting ability, and even had serious jamming, so it couldn't be used.
In this way, the weapons Qin Baoshan can choose are limited. While thinking, he said to Cochrane: "On the C-47 transport plane. The first thing that can be equipped is the 40mm Bofors anti-aircraft gun. I hope that the United States can transport a batch of these anti-aircraft guns as soon as possible. After it is installed, it can make the little devils on the ground feel the shroud of death."
This is the most classic anti-aircraft gun during World War II. 40 mm caliber, powerful. When it hits the ground, a large number of people can be killed with one hit. And because it is an anti-aircraft gun, it also has the ability to shoot in bursts. Using an anti-aircraft gun of this caliber as a machine gun, the power is absolutely leveraged.
However, it is a fact that the larger the caliber, the smaller the ammunition capacity. Moreover, this kind of gun uses magazines to feed ammunition and requires a special loader, so it is enough to install only one of this kind of anti-aircraft gun on an aircraft.
Qin Baoshan continued: "We can also install two more 20mm Oerlikon anti-aircraft guns on it."
Compared with the 40mm caliber Bofors anti-aircraft gun, the 20mm caliber Oerlikon anti-aircraft gun is more widely used, with a small caliber, so it has a large amount of ammunition. The main feeding method it uses is the drum with 70 rounds of ammunition, which is more than ten times larger than the magazine capacity of five rounds. A round drum is installed on the side of the anti-aircraft gun, which is very convenient to use. Therefore, it is also very easy to modify. In addition to being used on the ground, it is also often used on aircraft to become an aerial gun. The Americans once introduced patents to produce this kind of anti-aircraft gun, but it is not common to equip this kind of cannon on American aircraft.
theThere are also many reasons. This kind of aerial gun is powerful and suitable for dealing with enemy bombers. It can punch a big hole with one shot, but the Americans are not threatened by bombers. For Americans, neither Japanese nor German aircraft can fly to the United States to bomb, so the Americans do not need to intercept enemy bombers. This machine gun will become tasteless. Although it can carry 70 rounds of shells, compared with the hundreds of rounds of machine guns, the amount of ammunition carried is still very small. American fighter jets often use 12.7mm machine guns, and often several machine guns are used together.
As for the bombers of the Americans themselves, they also use machine guns as their main defensive weapons, and of course they also have 20mm machine guns. Take their b29 bomber as an example, there is a 20mm cannon on the tail turret.
Now that I want to modify the air gunboat, this 20mm cannon should be a very suitable weapon. Seventy rounds of ammunition drums can make machine guns fire all over for a while. After the shooting is finished, a new drum can be installed on the aircraft to continue the design. The best solution is to install a 40mm Bofors anti-aircraft gun on one side of the cabin door, and install it on the other side of the cabin door. Two 20mm cannons. In this way, they can shoot alternately, which is more powerful. For the first person on the ground, it is definitely like death. Such a plane can definitely stop the attack of a division of the little devil.
?Thinking of that scene, Qin Baoshan was also full of anticipation. He really wanted to go up and shoot. The fight was so exciting. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
