Text Chapter 365: Touching the Weakness

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Yu Ming, who shot down two of the latest Japanese Zero fighters in one fell swoop, not only achieved a rare victory against the Zero fighters, but also keenly discovered that the body of this new Japanese fighter was extremely weak and could not perform a large overload dive.  .  Once it dives too hard, its fragile body is likely to disintegrate on the spot due to its most fatal weaknesses.

    Not only is this aircraft body too fragile to withstand the heavy overloads experienced during high-speed dives.  In the dive state, its engine should be relatively easy to stall.  When I was escaping from a high-speed dive, the Zero fighter behind me stopped several times.  The pursuit had to be stopped briefly to recover to avoid crashing.

    ¡° Moreover, this kind of aircraft is maneuverable, flexible, has excellent fighting performance, and has a very small circling radius, so it can only operate at low speeds.  Once the speed exceeds a certain limit, the movements of this aircraft will be extremely cumbersome.  After changing from climbing to level flight, when accelerating and performing maneuvers, the Zero fighter behind him could only keep flying forward and level.

    Although this kind of aircraft is very fast, its inability to maneuver at high speeds will undoubtedly have little effect against opponents with similar speeds and not slower than you.  Without that opponent, he would just keep flying in front of you, leaving you to bite and get beaten.

    The most important thing is that when this kind of fighter turns to the right, it moves extremely slowly.  Although the high-altitude performance of my own P-39 fighter jet is poor, its low-altitude performance is not bad.  Especially the acceleration performance and low-altitude recovery ability are quite outstanding.

    As long as you can seize the opportunity at this time, take advantage of its slow right-turning and deformation characteristics, and get close to them in time, it is not too difficult to shoot them down.  Of course, the most fatal weakness of the Zero fighter is that its body is too thin.  Just a dozen rounds of 12.7mm bullets turned it into a fireball burning in the air.

    After all, Yu Ming, who was very experienced, summed up the weaknesses of Type Zero in a short period of time and reported them to his subordinates as soon as possible.  But unfortunately, the enemy planes were not the three in front of him.  Including the aircraft watching the battle from the periphery, their number was dozens of times that of himself and his subordinates.  There are also several times as many who directly enter the battlefield.

    Although my subordinates have been tested in battles for a long time, their technical performance is still different.  In this almost one-sided air battle, it was not just the Japanese that suffered losses.  In the ten minutes that Yu Ming had been entangled with the three-machine formation chasing him, the situation on the battlefield became even more unfavorable for Ming.

    These ten minutes may seem short, but for Yu Ming¡¯s subordinates, it is an unforgettable moment.  Since this squadron was transferred to Qiqihar, it has fought more than a dozen air battles, large and small.  There were not many aircraft that were seriously damaged in the air battle, but not a single fighter was shot down.

    In just ten minutes, although Yu Ming and his men shot down three Zero Fighters and four ME 109 fighters, their own losses were quite heavy for this squadron.  It can even be described as straining one's muscles and bones.  For Yu Ming, what worries him the most is not the aircraft that the headquarters will always find a way to replenish, but his capable subordinates.

    When Yu Ming told his subordinates on the radio the lessons he had learned from the air battle with three Zero Fighters.  Of the eight fighters of this squadron on the battlefield that he was so proud of, only three were left in the air, including him and his wingman.  In addition to his own formation, there was only one lead aircraft left, which the wingman had lost, and was still hovering in the air.  In other words, in the air battle, he lost two entire semi-double aircraft formations.

    The enemy-occupied area is below. Even if these pilots parachute, it is unlikely that they can return to their base.  What's more, among the five planes that were shot down, almost none of the pilots who parachuted were able to parachute.  It's not like flying a plane that's been beaten and smoldering with fire, and dying together with the enemy.  It was while parachuting that he was shot dead in mid-air by the enemy.

    He looked at the only two fighter jets around him, and then looked at the enemy planes that had taken advantage of their numbers to encircle them.  Yu Ming gritted his teeth and said to the only remaining lead pilot: "Comrades, we can't all die here. Someone must take today's experience back and report it to the headquarters. When the enemy planes rushed up,  My wingman and I cover. You turn on the acceleration and rush out as hard as you can."

    "Although the Japanese aircraft is flexible, its maneuverability can only be exerted at low speeds. As long as we turn on the acceleration and break through to Qiqihar with all our strength, there is no chance. As for the performance of the Mei fighter, you all know,  I don¡¯t need to say anything.¡±

    "Remember, if the enemy planes catch up during the breakout, dive with all your strength and roll to the right to get away. I emphasize again, you must remember that under no circumstances should you think about fighting with them, let alone climb out.  swing??and roll left to escape.  These little devil's planes are too maneuverable.  "

    After hearing Yu Ming's order, the only remaining lead pilot besides him said: "Squadron Commander, you shot down those three new Japs aircraft. The experience is all in your head. You must not sacrifice it."  Here. Your wingman and I will serve as cover, and you rush out. This is not for yourself, but for our other comrades in the aviation force."

    As for the lead pilot letting him cover him and rushing out first, Yu Ming smiled calmly and said: "Do you think I am the kind of person who abandons his comrades and comrades and escapes alone? Our squadron has twelve aircraft, except  Apart from the four escorting No. 1, we are the only ones left here. I have already lost four brothers, and I will never leave you behind again."

    The lead pilot heard Yu Ming's somewhat forlorn tone and quickly shouted on the radio: "Squadron Commander, you must go. Not only for us, but also for the sake of revenge for those brothers who sacrificed their lives, and also for the sake of the rest of us.  Comrade, you will not die in vain under the cannon of this new Japanese aircraft. You are not only a squadron leader, you will also be an instructor."

    "Furthermore, my plane has been damaged, and the engine power has dropped. The fuel tank has also been damaged, and the remaining fuel is not enough to fly back. Even if you create a gap for me, I'm afraid I won't be able to fly.  It¡¯s too far. Rather than being lost in the middle, it¡¯s better to fight with them here. If you fight with them, you can make a lot of money. Squadron leader, you must go back.¡±

    After saying that, the lead pilot no longer cares about what Yu Ming thinks.  With a swing of its wings, the fighter plane, which was clearly deformed in its flight movements, and with Yu Ming's wingman automatically following him, faced the enemy plane on the opposite side that had completed regrouping and was rushing toward him.  During the process of engaging the enemy, he did not choose to climb and gain altitude, but chose an altitude of five thousand meters.

    P three -nine fighters have poor high -altitude performance, and the climbing speed is far less than the new fighter with devils. There is also a high -altitude ME 109 fighter at high altitude.  At this time, if you choose to climb to gain altitude, without any cover other than your own wingman, you will undoubtedly die faster.

    If you want to persist for more time, you can only choose the medium and low altitudes where the P-39 fighter has the best performance and can best display the technical and tactical level of this aircraft.  Only by delaying the Japanese aircraft as much as possible can we create a breakthrough opportunity for our squadron leader.

    Yu Ming¡¯s eyes turned red when he saw his men protruding for cover, almost certainly facing the enemy without any return.  But his mind was not moved by this.  Seeing his remaining lead plane and his wingman entangled in several zero battles, Yu Ming knew that he had to go back alive today. He would find out the weaknesses of the enemy's new fighter planes in today's air battle and report them to his superiors.  report.

    Gritting his teeth, he saw the three enemy planes that had escaped and rushed towards him after desperately staying behind. Yu Ming controlled the fighter plane, flipped backwards neatly, turned on the acceleration, and prepared to break out in the direction of Qiqihar.  At this moment, the call of dawn suddenly rang in the radio headset of Yu Ming's landline.

    Liming¡¯s call seemed urgent. He didn¡¯t know how many of Yu Ming and the eight fighter jets he left to cover were still alive now that Japanese reinforcements had arrived.  After receiving Liming's call, Yu Ming turned on the intercom and gave him a brief report on the current situation.

    When he learned that the reinforcements had arrived and were on top of him, Yu Ming immediately briefly and concisely reported to Liming the weaknesses of the new Japanese fighter jets that he had discovered in the air battle, and proposed a  suggestion.  Just for the newly reinforced troops, don't get entangled with the enemy in the air.

    Taking advantage of the sturdy nature of the US-made fighter body, it adopts high-altitude dive and hit-and-run tactics.  The focus of the attack was on the high-altitude ME-109 fighter jets and the new Japanese fighter jets.  Especially the new Japanese fighter planes that pose the greatest threat.  As for the unseen new fighter planes that are still being used over there, just send some fighters to contain them.

    Regarding Yu Ming¡¯s suggestion, Liming agreed without any thought.  For Liming, who had just returned to the battlefield, it was obvious that no one had more say than Yu Ming about the performance of all new Japanese aircraft gathered in the air combat area.  Liming, who still knew Yu Ming's tactical qualities very well, had no reason not to accept his advice.

    After receiving Yu Ming¡¯s report, Liming made a tactical deployment in the shortest possible time.  With all the P-39 fighters on hand that had actual combat experience, except for a squadron that stayed behind to deal with the Japanese Type 97 fighter group.  All the remaining fighter jets were used to deal with the new Japanese fighter jets below.

    "The P-40 fighter that has no actual combat experience and has just completed conversion training and aerial combat training will"?? is divided into three.  In addition to staying on the way and cooperating with the P-39 fighter squadron to deal with the twelve of the twenty-seven Type 97 fighter groups that were preparing to cut off the retreat of the Yu Ming aircraft group.

    This P-40 Fighter Group, the remaining two squadrons are divided into two.  Regarding the ME 109 fighter group hovering at an altitude of 6,000 meters, as well as other Japanese fighter jets serving as air security not far away.  After giving the tactical arrangements to the commanders of the three fighter groups in a clean and concise manner, Li Ming didn't say a word of nonsense. He only uttered two words "attack"
