Section 511 Struggle for air supremacy in the strait
Although China issued a statement, it "calls on all parties to the conflict in the three Koreas to exercise restraint and resolve the conflict through rational consultation, and all parties must abide by basic moral and legal norms and refrain from making dangerous moves that endanger their own people and foreign investments in the three Koreas. Ninety percent of these three South Korean investments are surnamed Hua, and the rest are also Belarusian and foreign Chinese, and the harm does not endanger foreign investment in South Korea, and we will see it as a blasphemy against the sincerity of the suzerain's mediation, and we will regret all the consequences arising from this (it is estimated that the side that is regretted is basically a historical term). "But countries in the world have no interest in this coup d'état in Sanhan, just like the European Cup is in full swing over there, Italy and Germany are tied in overtime, and the moment the penalty kick is kicked, you insert a Chinese Super League Luneng vs. Evergrande, and you can't take care of yourself if you don't get beaten by the fans. So a coup d'état from the beginning to the end is so smooth and reasonable, there are tyrants, righteous people, suppression, resistance, plus a Jedi counterattack and a big reversal of the plot, a proper little golden man plot, Sanhan is completely tied to the belt of the heavenly kingdom, usually as a role of throwing stones and asking for directions, once the internal urgency does not bring paper, it can be useful.
After Sitara defeated the French, he was thinking about another piece of the nest, that is, the Johannes who the Germans wanted to shoot through their knees and make them kneel and sing about conquest. The German General Staff soon drew up a "Sea Lion Plan" to invade Britain. In order to ensure the sea-crossing landing operation, the German army tried to seize air supremacy first, so as to destroy the British fortifications, eliminate the British Air Force, and pin down the British Royal Air Force. So Luftwaffe Field Marshal Goering assembled the main force of the Luftwaffe Air Force 3 air groups and 2669 aircraft, fighters and bombers accounted for half each, while Britain only had 700 fighters and 500 bombers, and Germany had a 2:1 advantage. Not to mention that the F4 and F5 exported by China are shipped to Italy in droves, and they are said to have been sold to the Italian mafia bigwigs.
As early as May, when France was being beaten in various ways, Britain had foreseen that the Luftwaffe would carry out a large-scale bombardment of the Mishima mainland, so on May 19, the British Joint Chiefs of Staff put forward a defense report in the event of France's withdrawal from the war, calling for the effective strengthening of various defensive measures, especially air defense measures, and the report was approved by the wartime cabinet on May 27. And immediately began the necessary preparations: first, the wartime cabinet set up an aircraft manufacturing department, with Beaver 61 Brook as the minister, and vigorously strengthened aircraft manufacturing, so that the monthly production of aircraft rapidly increased from 700 to 1,600 in August, including 470 fighters; secondly, the air defense forces will be uniformly adjusted and deployed throughout the country, with a focus on strengthening the air defense of the London area; Third, the Air Department has set up a combat training unit, set up a number of training schools, stepped up the training of air and ground crews, so that 200 new pilots can be added to the unit every month, and has also mobilized Commonwealth member states to train air crews on their behalf to form new combat units.
In July of the eighteenth year of the Taichu Dynasty, the Battle of France ended, France, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Denmark, Norway and other countries were all conquered by Germany, and only Britain was left to resist in the whole of Western Europe. At this time, Sitara extended an olive branch to the British, and because the Workers' Party Germany did not have enough crude oil reserves before the war and needed to prepare for the subsequent war against the Soviet Union, Sitara believed that too much strength should not be expended on the Western Front. Moreover, Germany's main enemy was Red Russia, and it was enough to knock Britain down, as long as Britain said that it would no longer be an enemy of Germany and return the former German colonies that had been stolen during the First World War, a peace treaty could be signed. Unexpectedly, the new British Prime Minister Qiu Fatzi was a lever who accepted death, and Chamberlain's experience made Qiu Fat completely ignore Sitara's diplomatic tricks, and continued to prepare for a possible attack after suppressing the Workers' Party forces in Britain and external persuasion forces. In his inauguration speech, Churchill made it clear: "It is our policy to fight with all the power God has given us, on land, at sea and in the sky, against the forces of darkness and evil that have never been seen before in the history of mankind!" After several attempts to persuade him to no avail, Sitara became angry and ordered a plan to invade Britain. (Sitara may be a propaganda genius, but she's not as old as the millennial-stirring British.) As for China's diplomacy, hehe, the disobedient are singing belated love kneeling and licking Boss Wu's boots, the others are father and son, brother and brother, warm welcome, peaceful, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that China's current international environment is very friendly, except for a few countries that lack reason, Chinese citizens with a domineering small passport stamped with the eagle emblem can completely smooth most of the earth).
Before the start of the Battle of Britain, Britain divided the mainland into four air theater boundaries: the 10th Fighter Group, which was responsible for Plymouth, Exeter, Bristol, Cardiff, Swans, Birmingham and its environs; 11th Fighter Group, responsible for Bath, Southampton, Pontsmiers, Canterbury, London, Bristow, Ipswich and its environs; 12th Fighter Group, Birmingham, Coventry, Ipswich, Norwich, Nottingham, Liverpool, Manchester and its environs; The 13th Fighter Group, responsible for Liverpool, Manchester, Sunderland, Newcastle, Glasgow, Belfast and its environs. The distribution of high-altitude radar stations is: Plymouth, Canterbury and its surroundings (3 locations), Ipswich, Norwich, Nottingham, Sunderland, Newcastle, Glasgow, Newcastle, Glasgow, near Swans. In general, the distribution of high-altitude radar stations is an L-shape with an opening to the left. Britain had 3 army group headquarters in Newcastle, Bristow and London, and the general headquarters was in London. (The cities within the boundaries of the air force theater above only have the names of those cities that are bombed, and the cities in both districts are cities on the border), and the divisions guard and support each other, and the intelligence officers of China's Tuan (under the command of Boss He of the Department of Homeland Security) said that they are very reasonable and efficient, except for the planes, pilots, poor numbers, and stupid radar systems.
On July 15, the RAF Fighter Aviation Command (Commander 61 Air Admiral Hugh 61 Dawding) had 4 air groups under its command, with a total of 55 squadrons. The 13th Air Group in the north was commanded by Thor and consisted of 14 squadrons; The 12th Air Group in the center was commanded by Parker and had 22 squadrons; The 11th Air Group in the southeast was commanded by Trafford 61 Limalori with 14 squadrons; The 10th Air Group in the south-west was commanded by Brand and consisted of 4 squadrons. The Army's anti-aircraft artillery, with Pyle as its commander, also received operational command from Dowding. By the beginning of August, the RAF had 700 fighters and 500 bombers at its disposal for combat. Of the 1,600 aircraft produced in August, 470 were Hurricanes and Spitfires (19 squadrons were equipped with Spitfires before the summer of 1940, and only 6 squadrons were equipped with Spitfires with Sispano cannons), of which only the Spitfire was capable of countering the BF109, and since the Hurricanes had not performed well in previous continental battles, most were used to directly attack the incoming Hinkel bombers. The Luftwaffe launched the Battle of Britain with four air forces on the Luftwaffe side: the 2nd Air Force under the command of Air Marshal Albert 61 Kesselring, the 2nd Air Force under the command of Field Marshal Speerer, and the 5th Air Force under the command of Air General Stumpf, and the main types of aircraft equipped were single-engine Me109 fighters, twin-engine Me109 fighters, JU88 twin-engine bombers, and the main fighters F4 "Warhawk", advanced fighters F5 "Eagle" fighters and "Howling Eagles" imported from China Dive bombers, B6 "Whirlwind" bombers, and a total of 2,669 German combat aircraft assembled at airfields in northern France and the Low Countries.
The approximate distribution of the Luftwaffe was as follows: multi-engine bombers were mainly deployed in the Calais region, Rennes, Antwerp and Hoinst; The Howling Eagles are more dispersed, with a V-shaped distribution from Le Havre to Paris to Antwerp; Single-engine fighters were mainly concentrated in Cherburg, Le Avel, Calais and Antwerp; In addition to the location of the multiple-engine fighters, there is also a Rennes area.
The German side had a clear numerical advantage in combat readiness. A total of 1,250 fighters, including 650 Bf109E and 150 Bf110, 350 F4 Warhawk fighters, and 100 more solid F5 Eagles, are staring at the other side of the strait. But the British Air Force was not targeting these fighters, but more than 1,200 bombers. Because, only to prevent it from entering British airspace, is the main purpose. But for Dowding, who is in charge of the air defense mission of the British homeland, the numerical disadvantage really hurts his brain. But for Britain itself, the situation of the war did not necessarily present a one-sided posture. Because, they have their own secret weapon in which they have an advantage - the "radar" that has not been put into real combat for a long time. Without him, the impact of the war might have been frustrating to the British. From the 30s*, with the emphasis on indigenous air defense, the British Air Force embarked on a program to be able to monitor the airspace of the homeland 24 hours a day. At this time, the British radio engineer Watson 61 Watt used the principle that radio waves "bounce" when they encounter metal objects on the way to propagate, turning the principle of radio detection into a practical technology. In February 1935, good results were achieved in the experiments. Beginning in May 1935, 70-foot-high radio antennas were erected along Britain's long coastline, and "close attention" was carried out day and night to "keep a close eye on its airspace." It was officially equipped and used on the eve of the fall of France, and was named RADAR (radar) by its abbreviation.
Since then, the British Air Force has gradually rationalized and coordinated the use of radar and fighter aircraft. What's even more gratifying is that it can locate its own aircraft in a state of flight and lead to the airspace where enemy aircraft appear. At this point, British radar observers could easily observe the exact location of their own aircraft and enemy aircraft, even if they were deployed. In terms of air early warning in World War 2, Britain was the first to use radar to have a practical effect. But no one could have imagined that such a "monster" with an antenna would become one of the greatest obstacles to the realization of Germany's plan to conquer Britain. But what the Germans did not expect was that British intelligence had managed to intercept and read the Luftwaffe's radio coded letters. Although the "Ingmar" code had not yet been cracked at that time, the cipher system used by the Luftwaffe was successfully cracked by using the code interpreter "Utra". Intelligence superiority partially alleviated the numerical inferiority, but the RAF was still faced with a brutal war. After June of the 18th year of the first century, an air battle that was about to take place over the Strait of Dover was delayed. In addition, it was the prelude to the British air war in which electronic warfare, intelligence warfare, psychological warfare, propaganda warfare, and verbal warfare were mixed with the British and German sides.
