Chapter 151, New Tactics

The arrival of the P-81 came much later than Vogts had imagined. It was only when only a quarter of the fuel in his tank was left that the opponent's P-81 appeared in his field of vision.

Those P-81s appeared at 2 o'clock in his direction, about the same height as Vogts's ME-262, and the number of them was about 12, which was about the same number as the ME-262 on his side. Vogts knew that the enemy, in order to ensure that they had their fleet of safari planes near several airfields in Poland for most of the day, had to come in batches, so that the number of each group was quite limited. In fact, they have never had an advantage in numbers, but they rarely suffer thanks to the excellent performance of their aircraft and relatively elite pilots.

The P-81 had a better view than the Me-262, so Kozhdub, driving the P-81, saw the German Me-262 at a greater distance. For the Germans to send planes to protect the airfield, the United Air Corps had a plan. There are different approaches to protecting the different types of aircraft at airports. For example, if the BF-109 is defending the airfield, then take them to climb, climb to a high place, and then follow the situation, or just throw them off and attack the target on the airfield - they can't keep up anyway with their dive ability. If it's the FW-190, then directly use the climb advantage and rely on BZ tactics to press these guys to the lowest low altitude. Then you can let go of the bully machine; One; Root; Read, the novel yb+du field.

As for the ME-262, the only way to do it is to find an opportunity to shoot at it! The ME-262 is not a bf-109 and FW-190 that is significantly less powerful than the P-81. It was far faster than the P-81, and it was piloted by elite veterans. Against such an opponent, if you still think about not paying the price, thinking about zero casualties or something, you will definitely suffer a loss. At this time, there is only one way, and that is: the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road!

There were 262 MK-4 guns of 30 mm in the nose of the Me-108. The guns used to attack bombers were so powerful that they could destroy even a sturdy fighter like the P-81 with just one shot in the case of head-on fire, and the pilots of the destroyed fighters had absolutely no chance of escaping. This kind of aircraft gun has a slow rate of fire and average accuracy, but the number of four guns makes up for this deficiency to a certain extent, and in the hands of veterans, even against fighters, it still has quite strong lethality.

But if you really shoot at each other, the P-81 will not suffer. The six 20-mm guns of the P-81 alone are far from being comparable to the 30-mm MK-108. But these 6 guns have a faster rate of fire and a longer range. If it weren't for the small ammunition load, the P-81 with this cannon could rain 6,000 shells at the enemy in one minute. This means that in head-to-head fire, the P-81 is more likely to hit the enemy first. The power of the 20mm shell, of course, is far inferior to that of the MK-108 30mm shell, and even in a head-on state, it cannot be a one-hit kill. However, the rate of fire of 6,000 rounds per minute with 6 guns can guarantee that once the opponent is hit, the opponent may only hit one shot. Even if you can't dismantle the opponent directly in one round, it will definitely make any opponent half of the body. A half-defeated fighter is meat on the chopping block in the next round of attacks.

"Follow me!" With an order, Kozhdub swooped down on the ME-262 with 11 other P-81 fighters.

Now, Vogts had to make a choice, a slight turn to the right would allow them to go head-to-head with the enemy, and a turn to the left would most likely sell the Yankees at 6 o'clock. However, given the difference in speed between the two sides, even if the opponent occupies 6 points, they will most likely not have a chance to get within range. And then what? Then, under normal circumstances, because of the large gap in maneuverability, it is basically difficult for Me-262 to get a chance to shoot, unless he is willing to play head-to-head with others. Of course, under normal circumstances, due to the difference in speed, it is difficult for the P-81 to get a chance to shoot, unless someone is willing to play head-to-head with him.

But if you're willing to play a thrilling head-to-head game, you just need to turn a little to the right now, so why bother? So, if everything is normal, the final result must be: the ME-262 is running out of fuel, so it takes the lead in retreating with the advantage of speed, and the P-81 can't catch up, so he has to watch the opponent leave. But the problem is that now there are only two airfields within the range of the Me-262 for it to take off and land, and landing directly at the airfield below is no different from looking for death, the distance between them is too close to completely get rid of the P-81. When it was time to land, it was left behind by the P-81, and it was no wonder that he did not die. Then you might as well skydive. How about running to another airport? That's definitely enough distance to throw off the P-81. However, most of the time, there will also be a fleet of P-81s on that airfield.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, it seems that the ME-262 can only choose to play head-to-head with the P-81. But now, the situation is different. I still have a bunch of BF-109s on my side. As long as the P-81 is dragged for a while, the BF-109 will be able to climb up, and then the two fighters will unite and cooperate with each other, will they still be afraid of the P-81?

So, Vogts's fleet began to turn to the left, and Kozhdub took advantage of the situation to cut into the rear hemisphere of the ME-262. Relying on the opportunity of the ME-262 to turn, he quickly closed the distance between him and the ME-262, but this distance was still a little farther, and it was not yet in range.

In fact, this situation is also in the expectation of Kuori Dub, and the rest is nothing more than a long-term entanglement, and in the end, it is definitely not himself who suffers. However, Kozhdub also noticed that at lower altitudes, a group of BF-109Gs was rapidly climbing.

In history, Kozhdub was able to become the No. 1 trump card in the Allied forces in two years, needless to say, his technology is good, and his brain is also recognized for being easy to use in the Soviet Air Force. With just a little thought, Kozhdub understood the intentions of the Germans.

It's one thing to just understand the intent, it's another thing to come up with a way to deal with it. For a while, Kozhdub really didn't have a good idea. He had no choice but to continue to entangle with the German ME-262 while contacting the base.

……

After Ron got off the plane, he went straight to the operations command room. There, he met another guy who was in a wheelchair like him - Pokryshkin.

"Hahahaha, Ron, you're crippled too! What a retribution! Seeing Ron come in, Pokryshkin, who was originally in a wheelchair looking at the map, laughed, "Grandma, make you laugh at me for being lame, and now I will be punished, right?" ”

When Pokryshkin broke his leg, Ron used to visit him. At that time, Ron said to him: "Actually, you really can't blame the air defense force for this matter, the key is yourself, you have already drawn so many little stars on the plane, and you always run outside to brush data and grab young people's food, you want to be punished, right?" You said that you should be honest and obedient, obediently go back to find a flight school to be a professor or something, how good would it be to train a few more young people? ”

Pokryshkin, of course, knew that Ron was joking with him, and he immediately retorted, "What's wrong? Envy, jealousy, hatred, right? I knew that you were hungry to go to heaven now, but unfortunately, you have issued a special order to strictly prohibit you from going to heaven. You can only swallow saliva while watching me get off the plane one by one! Poor ......" Pokryshkin dragged "poor ......" to the old elder, and slowly shook his head, with a posture of I sympathize with you.

Of course, Ron will not show weakness, he immediately shot back: "You can't go to heaven now, and the doctor will probably take the opportunity to give you an indefinite sick leave, and you will die in a hurry!" At least, I can still hear planes every day, what about you? You have to stay in the hospital obediently, and you can't even see the shadow of the plane. ”

Now that Ron has a problem with his own leg, Pokryshkin is certainly going to seize the opportunity to laugh at him harshly.

"My leg was wounded in a head-on battle with the Germans' most elite special forces, like somebody, who was wounded by his own people," Ron said. ”

Pokresh Vajra was about to say something more, but Kozhdub's voice came over the radio.

"Ron, what do you think you should do?" Pokryshkin immediately forgot about the conversation with Ron and got down to business.

"Hold the altitude first, and don't take others to a low altitude." Ron said, "Take every opportunity to climb and climb as high as possible!" ”

Ron doesn't remember very well what the ceiling of the ME-262 is, but it seems to be just over 10,000 meters, (actually 11,500 meters) The ceiling of the BF-109G seems to be 12,000 meters. But this 12,000-meter ceiling is just a number, and it is still very difficult for BF-109G to really climb to this height, even if it climbs, it will be taken somewhere, and then it will immediately fall.

But the P-81 is different, the P-81 has a practical ceiling of 12,000 meters. It looks like 12,000 meters, but the difference between the practical ceiling and the ceiling is huge. With a practical ceiling of 12,000 meters, the P-81 can fly smoothly at an altitude of 12,000 meters, and can even do some simple maneuvers.

"Fly with them, all the way to the limit. Then use the upper limit to bully them. That's what Ron, nicknamed "The Wizard," did.
