The new DB605A engine increases the compression of the cylinders to 7.3 (left) and 7.5 (right) respectively, with an average speed of 2,800 rpm, a take-off power of 1,475 hp and 1,250 hp at 2,000 feet. The pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info increased its weight to 6,500 pounds, although the overall size remained the same.

RLM was satisfied with the heavy fighter and decided that it was worth sacrificing a little maneuverability. But the front-line troops do not see it that way, and many pilots see the Bf109G as a design step backwards.

The G-2 was still a few weeks ahead of the G-1, and the biggest difference between the two was that the former used a normal cockpit with two small air intakes behind the windshield. The stations used are the same as those of the Bf109F-4, FuG7a and FuG25IFF. The standard armament scheme consists of an MG151/20 cannon with 200 rounds in one engine and two MG17 guns with 500 rounds each above the hood. In addition, the modification of the R-6 scheme could be carried out, with an MG151/20 cannon pod hanging under each wing.

Although the loading of cannon pods will reduce the maneuverability of the fighter to a certain extent, the addition of two MG151/20 guns is enough to make a qualitative change in the firepower of the fighter, making it easier to tear the enemy aircraft to shreds in engagement.

"Although it is not as maneuverable as the Friedrick we used before, the Gustav has a considerable increase in climb and speed. ”

"But the BF109 still locks the rudder too early at high speeds, and the slewing performance at low speeds is not very good, and I still prefer the F-4 to the G-2. ”

"Has Mika flown before?" asked Otoha, a little curious.

"Well, I flew back to her house with my mother before. ”

Mika naturally didn't hide anything from Otowa, and answered her question directly.

"That's right. ”

It seems that Mika's performance in air combat is still inseparable from her background.

But then again, although Mika's foundation is very good, she hardly knows how to maneuver, and her knowledge of tactics is also a blank slate. If Meixiang was really from a big family, the level of air combat would never be like this.

In this matter, presumably Meixiang also has something unspeakable.

In the future, when you find time, Otowa must ask clearly, but she and Mika still have something to do today.

"The BF109G-2 is followed by the Fw190A-4, really, why is this thing so heavy. ”

Hearing Otowa's complaints, Mika just smiled.

"Maybe it's because it has four 20mm guns. ”

"Two of the four guns are MGFF/M, and the remaining two are MG151/20, and the ballistics of the two guns are different, so how do I aim them, and the two MGFF/M can be regarded as non-existent. ”

Compared with the A-1 type, although the FW190 of the A-4 type has been replaced with a BMW801D-2 engine, due to the addition of two aviation guns, the level flight speed has not been improved much, and the speed is not the fastest in the same class.

The dive performance is as good as ever, but the rotation and roll are still so miserable.

All in all, Otowa still thinks that the weight of this thing is too high, and it is not very suitable for low-altitude air combat.

"After Germany, there are two Yaks from the Soviet Union, the Yak-9T and the Yak-9U. ”

As the third basic fighter model of the Yak series designed and produced in the Great Patriotic War, the Yak-9 was most widely used in the middle and late stages of the Great Patriotic War.

The Yak-9T is the first mass-produced modified model of the Yak-9 family, and the T stands for Tankovyi, that is, the tank hunter. The main change was the removal of the Schwark gun in the nose and the replacement of the NS-37 gun with 32 rounds of ammunition.

In order to accommodate the gun and withstand its recoil, the Yak-9T first moved the cockpit back by 40cm, and at the same time strengthened the structural strength of the fuselage.

Compared with the external large-caliber cannon, the built-in cannon can ensure that the maneuverability of the fighter is not affected, and the cannon arranged on the central axis is also easier to aim.

However, the Yak-9T is not without shortcomings, the recoil of the NS-37 is still too large, and the Yak-9T is very prone to lose speed and cause the nose to sink in battle.

Therefore, when using the NS-37 aircraft gun, it is better to conduct a burst fire of 2-3 rounds.

But fortunately, the power of the NS-37 fully compensates for its shortcomings, and the damage of 37x198mm shells is simply devastating. When firing a high-explosive bomb, this large-caliber high-explosive bomb can blow up a huge hole of about 1 square meter in the aircraft, and the single-engine fighter will almost certainly disintegrate after being hit, and at least it will be a heavy blow to the larger bomber.

The 37mm armor-piercing projectile can penetrate 50mm armor steel vertically at a distance of 200m, and it can also penetrate 40mm of armor with a 45° angle. Pierces the top armor of all tanks of its class, and even most of the rear side armor.

Jacques' Socialist Super Star Destroyer is not called for nothing.

At that time, many pilots of the German Air Force relied on the strong armor and sharp guns of the Fw190 and the small positive projection area to face off with Soviet fighters, and they also won many battles. However, after the installation of the socialist Star Destroyer cannon, this situation no longer exists.

The most painful thing is that the Yak-9T is not significantly different from the basic Yak-9 in appearance, and you never know if the Yak-9 in front of you will carry a or a socialist star destroyer that can explode you in the air.

However, the performance of the Yak-9 was still slightly insufficient in the later stage of the war, and the successful counterattack of the La-5 series at the same time made Yakolev feel pressured.

Knowing what to do, he decided to improve the performance of the original structure by taking measures that would have the least impact on the performance of wartime production. Work began in 1943, and the following year the latest Yak-9U was born.

The aerodynamic shape of the Yak-9U has been fundamentally changed and improved, and a series of attempts have been made to reduce weight and improve details. The engine was replaced with a 1,500 hp VK-107A, the redesigned propeller also improved performance, and the liquid cooling system and self-sealing fuel tank were also improved.

At that time, the Yak-9U was undoubtedly an advanced level of active combat aircraft, both vertical and horizontal maneuverability were quite excellent, at least now in 4.3 is still very strong.
