Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    According to the treaty signed at the Beijing Peace Conference, the Channel Islands that originally belonged to the United Kingdom have been ceded to China!  The Channel Islands are only a few dozen kilometers away from France¡¯s Normandy Peninsula!  The two largest islands in the Channel Islands, Jersey and Guernsey, are both flat and can build airports!  The Chinese Naval Aviation has built a large regular airport on each of these two islands. Each airport can accommodate the takeoff and landing of an aviation force's fighter planes!  However, it is too close to France, so the Chinese naval aviation only deployed one fighter group on each of these two islands to be responsible for combat readiness patrols in the English Channel and western France!

    In the eastern Atlantic region, the main base of the Chinese Air Force and Naval Aviation is still the island of Ireland!  The island of Ireland is vast, and there are many places where airports can be built!  The Chinese Air Force and Naval Aviation have built more than a dozen airports of various sizes on the island of Ireland, and there are also quite a few field airports!  Combined, these airports can accommodate up to thousands of fighter jets and bombers!  This has also made the island of Ireland a thorn in the side of Germany and the United Kingdom!  In order to attack the Chinese Air Force and Naval Aviation bases on the island of Ireland, the German Air Force invested 4 fighter wings and 4 bomber wings!  Another fighter wing and a bomber wing headed straight for the Channel Islands!

    Anglesey and the Isle of Man in the Irish Sea also belong to China. However, because they are too close to the United Kingdom, although the Chinese Air Force and Naval Air Force have built airports on these two islands, they did not station them immediately.  , but chose to garrison the island of Ireland!  Once a war breaks out, fighter jets can be deployed to these two islands to provide escort for the bombers deployed behind!

    At 5:45 in the morning on January 3, the first J1 bomber of the Luftwaffe took off from the airport in Wales, England. Subsequently, 4 fighter wings and 4 bomber wings, a total of 480 Hurricane IV fighters and 480 J1  The bombers all took off.  After these fighter planes take off, they will be divided into more than ten formations, cross the St. George Strait and the Irish Sea, and bomb the airports of the Chinese Air Force and Naval Air Force on the island of Ireland!

    At the speed of the Luftwaffe bombers, they will reach their target in an hour, that is, before 7 a.m.!  If they are not intercepted, they will bomb without restraint!  From the perspective of the German Air Force, the Chinese side would not have expected that the German Air Force would launch a bombing at this time!  After all, the 24-hour ultimatum given by China has not yet expired!  Although the attack launched by the German Air Force was considered an undeclared war, it would undoubtedly catch the Chinese Air Force and Naval Aviation by surprise!

    In order to maintain maximum confidentiality, the German Air Force fleet deliberately avoided Anglesey and the Isle of Man when crossing the Irish Sea!  As a result, the Chinese Air Force and Naval Aviation fighter planes did not detect them immediately!  Although China has issued a combat readiness order, almost no one expected that the German Air Force would adopt such shameless tactics!

    Dublin, the capital of the Republic of Ireland, has a flat terrain. There is a major airport of the 5th Air Force of the Chinese Air Force and an airport of the 9th Naval Aviation Wing!  An F10 Lightning heavy fighter wing and a F11 Vulture fighter group of the 5th Air Force are deployed at this airport. The Naval Aviation also has a F11B carrier-based Vulture fighter group deployed here.  Therefore, the Chinese Air Force and Naval Air Force airports near Dublin have also become key targets of the German Air Force!  A wing of German Air Force fighters and a wing of bombers came straight here after crossing the St. George Strait!

    The F11 ¡®Vulture¡¯ fighter is the main fighter of the Chinese Air Force, Army Aviation and Naval Aviation!  Compared with the F10 'Lightning' heavy fighter, which is mainly used to escort long-range bombers, the F11 'Vulture' fighter is lighter, with better climb rate and maneuverability. Although its defense is not as abnormal as the F10 'Lightning' heavy fighter, its key parts are also  They are all equipped with armor, and their defensive performance has been greatly improved!

    The F11 ¡®Vulture¡¯ fighter jet has a length of 8.75 meters, a wingspan of 10.9 meters, and a height of 3.35 meters.  The empty weight is 1820 kg, the maximum take-off weight is 2520 kg, and it is powered by a 1200-horsepower engine. The maximum speed is 600 kilometers per hour, the cruising speed is 420 kilometers per hour, the practical ceiling is 9800 meters, the climb rate is 1000 meters per minute, and the maximum range is  1,200 kilometers, combat radius 500 kilometers.  The weapons are four 12.7mm aviation machine guns, deployed on the nose and wings respectively!

    At 6 o¡¯clock in the morning, the Chinese Air Force¡¯s combat readiness patrol began. A squadron of F11 ¡®Vulture¡¯ fighter jets was towed out of the hangar. The ground crew began to inspect and refuel the fighter jets. The pilots were eating breakfast and listening to the mission briefing!  According to estimates, the first F11 ¡®Vulture¡¯ fighter jet will take off at 6:40!

    On a peninsula 13 kilometers northeast of Dublin deep into the St. George's Strait, the Chinese Air Force is in a small town called Howth on this peninsula.A large radar station was built on the Coast Mountains of ??!  As early as the last world war, China had already begun the development of radar, but it was not until the end of the war that the first generation of finished products was produced!  However, the performance of the first-generation radar was very backward, the effective detection range was only twenty kilometers, and it often broke down, making it almost of no practical value!  After the end of the world war, China continued to strengthen the development of radar. Last year, it finally developed a second-generation radar!  The second-generation radar has an effective detection range of 40 kilometers, and the failure rate is also greatly reduced.  The Chinese Air Force immediately deployed this secret weapon at major bases to strengthen the base's defense!  The Air Force Base in Dublin is an important base for the Chinese Air Force, and of course it will also deploy radar!  The radar technology of the Chinese Air Force has been kept highly confidential before. The German side does not know that China has mastered advanced technology!  In addition to deploying radars at air force bases, China has also successfully developed miniaturized radars and moved these radars to large battleships of the Chinese Navy, such as battleships, aircraft carriers, large air defense cruisers and heavy cruisers, to further improve  The air defense capabilities of the fleet!

    At 6 o'clock in the morning, the radar of the Chinese Air Force in Howth was already turned on, continuously searching the St. George Strait on the opposite side!  The radar soldier was even more focused on watching the screen, for fear of missing something!  After the Chinese military issued an emergency combat readiness order, the radar station also entered the highest combat readiness state!

    At 6:40, dense views appeared on the radar screen!  The radar soldier immediately exclaimed!

    "Sir! A large number of aircraft were discovered, more than two hundred in number!" the radar soldier immediately reported to the commander of the radar station!

    "What a fool! It's not our plane! Send an alert to the base immediately!" the major officer at the radar station yelled!  Fortunately, the radar found the target in time, otherwise, the Germans would have successfully attacked!

    It¡¯s just that the radar station is only 13 kilometers away from the Dublin Airport. When the radar discovered the German Air Force fleet, the other party was only more than 30 kilometers away from the radar station!  The distance of more than 40 kilometers takes less than ten minutes for the German Air Force's J1 bomber flying at full speed!  However, the alarm issued by the radar station still caused the Chinese Air Force and Naval Aviation bases to react immediately!

    "Woo!" A shrill air raid siren sounded over the airport!  The pilots who were having breakfast immediately put down their food and ran to the hangar!  The ground crew immediately took out the fighter jets parked in the hangar!

    "All pilots are at their positions, ready for emergency takeoff! The bombers stay in the hangar! The air defense troops enter the position!" Major General Wang Guozhong, the commander of the base and the commander of the 52nd Wing of the 5th Air Force of the Chinese Air Force, calmly issued the order!

    There is not much time left for them. The Germans will fly over their heads in a few minutes. At this time, we can only let the fighter jets take off as much as possible and be ready to meet the enemy!  Twelve F11 'Vulture' fighter jets from a squadron that had begun combat readiness missions immediately began to take off and fly towards the northeast.

    On the other side, the fighter group of the Naval Air Force also began an emergency takeoff, preparing to meet the incoming German Air Force!

    The Chinese Air Force¡¯s airport in Dublin has a total of three runways and can take off at the highest efficiency, capable of taking off 6 fighters per minute!  Everyone knows that the situation is critical, and everyone is racing against time!  The first to take off were a brigade of F11 ¡®Vulture¡¯ fighter jets from the Chinese Air Force and a brigade of F11B ¡®Vulture¡¯ fighter jets from the Chinese Naval Air Force!  The 'Vulture' fighter jet has better air combat performance and poses a greater threat to incoming enemy aircraft!

    What took off next was the F10 ¡®Lightning¡¯ heavy fighter jet!  There is a wing at the airport, one consisting of 120 'Lightning' heavy fighter jets!  However, it is obviously impossible to take off all the fighters before the enemy bombers arrive. We can only take off as many fighters as possible!

    When the radar station of the Chinese Air Force discovered the incoming German aircraft fleet, the commanders of the 10th Fighter Wing and the 5th Bomber Wing of the German Air Force both issued orders to speed up!  The Luftwaffe's Hurricane IV fighters began to join in, widening the distance from the J1 bombers behind them, preparing to clear the way for the bombers' bombing operations!  They will be responsible for dealing with Chinese Air Force and Naval Aviation fighters, as well as air defense positions around the airport!  (To be continued.
