Chapter 49 Discussion

Otowa had wanted to play some small games with Mika tonight to deepen her relationship, but a message from Jasnia forced her to change her mind. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The message Jasnia sent to her was simple, probably because the weight of this competition had been set, asking her and Mika to choose the vehicles for the competition as soon as possible.

"What's wrong, Otowa-san?"

Seeing Otoha's expression suddenly change, Mika couldn't help but tilt her head.

"The weight of the competition has been set, it's 4.3, and Jasnia told us to hurry up and choose the fighters to participate in. ”

Jasnia...... Is that the girl I met this morning?"

"Yes, but she's the deputy minister of aviation. ”

"Eh, she's the deputy minister!?"

It's no wonder that Mika was surprised, after all, Jasnia's performance in the morning was so out of shape that it was hard to imagine that she was actually the deputy minister of the Ministry of Aviation in Oarai.

"It just so happens that Mei Xiang is here today, so it's better to decide on the fighter plane tonight. Otowa paused, then continued, "We don't have much time left, the sooner we choose our fighters, the more time we can have to practice." ”

"Well, aren't the planes participating in the competition unified?"

After listening to Otoha's words, Mika looked a little puzzled and asked the same question as Otoha at the time.

"That's how we use Oarai's style, using different fighters to develop tactics to defeat the enemy. ”

"Then it's not our turn to choose......"

"Jacinia told me that we, as newcomers, will choose the plane first, and then they will fill in the seats. ”

This is also a tradition of Oarai, but it is aimed at specially recruited genius pilots, and the members of the department recruited in batches at the beginning of the school year every year do not have this privilege.

There is no doubt that Otowa and Mika are naturally "genius pilots".

Although there is no computer in Otowa's dormitory, the good news is that in the 22nd century, mobile phones are quite powerful and can replace computers to a large extent.

"4.3 Ah...... What kind of vehicles are there?"

Otowa logged in directly to the official website of the War Games Alliance on his mobile phone, and then opened the search bar. After setting the weight of 4.3, a bunch of fighters quickly swiped out.

Because Otowa is the kind of person who will die if she doesn't take advantage, she directly searched for 4.3 fighters, and did not drag 3.7 and 4.0 into the candidate list.

The speed of the search was still quite fast, and a bunch of fighters were quickly refreshed.

"I'll see...... The American P-51D-5, the German BF109G-2 and FW190A-4, the Soviet Yak-9T and Yak-9K, the British Typhoon MK.IB late type, the Japanese Zero Battle 22 Type A and the Three-Type Zhan 1 Ding. ”

"It's all good planes. ”

Looking at Mika's appearance, it's not that she doesn't understand airplanes at all, and Otowa is also relieved.

Otowa turned his attention to the first aircraft, the American P-51D-5.

The sleek P-51D/K with its bubble canopy is the most famous model in the Mustang family, and the most produced and widely used model, with a total of 9,602 produced, 6,502 P-51Ds produced by Inglewood, and 1,600 P-15Ds and 1,500 P-51Ks produced by Dallas.

"The American P-51D-5 is characterized by high speed, which is probably the best among the eight aircraft, and the high-altitude performance is also quite good, and it can be proud of the other eight fighters at an altitude of 6,000 meters. In addition, the excellent view brought by the bubble canopy cannot be ignored. ”

As soon as Otowa finished speaking, Mika raised objections.

"But Otoba-san, the shortcomings of this fighter are also quite obvious, first of all, its climb is slow, and then the acceleration is not good, and the maneuverability is not advantageous compared to other fighters at medium and low altitudes. ”

"It's a problem, especially since this tournament has to take care of the ground fighting, so the height of the engagement shouldn't be very high. ”

Otoha nodded, agreeing with Mika's statement.

Seeing that Otowa agreed with her, Mika was also encouraged a lot, and soon spoke again.

"And the firepower is also a problem, although the paper data of 6 12.7mm machine guns is beautiful, it is difficult to quickly destroy enemy aircraft in actual combat. In addition, although there are 1,880 rounds of ammunition, the distribution of ammunition is uneven, the two machine guns on the inside have 400 rounds of ammunition, while the four machine guns on the outside have only 270 rounds of ammunition, and once the ammunition of the outer machine guns is exhausted, only two machine guns can be used to attack. ”

Otowa was a little surprised, but he didn't expect Mika to even know this kind of little knowledge.

Even Otowa had to admit that he still underestimated Mika.

"It's a shame, I'd like to try the legendary K-14 autogyro sight. ”

Otowa sighed and shook his head a little helplessly.

The design of the K-14 automatic gyro sight is based on the technology of the British company Ferranti. When this sight first appeared, it was considered a miracle. As long as the pilot sets the wingspan scale of the enemy plane, and uses the halo on the mirror of the sight to cover the enemy plane, and adjusts the size of the halo to be consistent with the target wingspan through the knob on the throttle stick, as long as the halo covers the enemy plane, he can pull the trigger, and the advance calculation is all handed over to the analog computer to handle.

The P-51 can have such a brilliant record, and the K-14 automatic gyro sight can be said to be indispensable.

Listening to Otowa's words, Mika just smiled.

"Otoba-san's gunnery is so good, using an automatic sight will only affect you. ”

"Okay, let's put the P-51 here, let's take a look at the German BF109G-2 and FW190A-4 first. ”

After Otowa finished speaking, he moved his gaze to the two planes below.

The G in the BF109G-2 stands for Gustav, or Gustav, and it is also the most produced model in the BF109 series. A total of 10 models were officially in service, with a total production of more than 10,000 aircraft, and were widely used by all daytime fighter units and 8 client states until the end of the war.

According to the military's original request, the G would sacrifice maneuverability in exchange for higher speeds, and the entire design revolved around the heavier DB605 engine, requiring a stronger airframe structure to withstand this more powerful engine, and an important increase in the airframe necessarily required a strengthened landing gear, which in turn led to an increase in weight. The consequences are undoubted, the wing load becomes larger and the maneuverability decreases.
