On February 2, 1940, at the naval aviation training base in Port Kiel, Chen Dao and Garland and other senior naval aviation officers turned their backs to the sky, staring intently at two fighting fighters in the sky.

Chen Dao stomped his foot and straightened his collar to dispel the biting cold on his body. He glanced down at the information in his hand, and then looked up at the fighter jet in the air with bright yellow paint sprayed on the nose and tail.

The ME-109T was a carrier-based fighter converted from the current FAF ME-109E fighter and was armed with four 7.92mm MG17 machine guns.

The information shows that compared with the ME-109E fighter, the main improvement of the ME-109T fighter is to increase the wing surface aircraft to improve lift, the wing is lengthened by 60 cm, and hinges are installed on the outside of the middle machine gun, which can be folded up, and the wingspan after retracting is only 4 meters, which is suitable for parking in the aircraft carrier hangar.

In addition, a landing hook was added to the belly in front of the tail wheel, catapult contacts were installed near the front wheel, and the corresponding structure was strengthened. The landing gear is still retracted outward, and the landing gear strength is strengthened to accommodate the faster landing speeds on aircraft carriers.

A piece of aircraft information with various terms Chen Dao looked at it with a swollen head and black eyes, and patiently opened the second document, Chen Dao began to examine the opponent of the ME-109T.

The ME-109T was opposed to a HE-100D1 fighter jet, which was armed with a 20mm engine cannon and two 7.92mm MG-17 machine guns on the wings.

The top speed at sea level is 560 km/h, which is a little faster than the 530 km/h of the Me-109T, and the range is 900 km, which is a third more than the 660 km of the Me-109T.

The HE-100 fighter lost to the ME-109 fighter in the competition of the main fighter of the Luftwaffe, and the Heinkel company regarded it as a great shame.

The pilot of the HE100 fighter was infected by the vigor of the Heinkel company, and used all his strength to manipulate the plane to chase, roll, and entangle with the opponent in the air.

20-mm guns in the bow and 7 in the wings. The 92mm machine gun kept spewing fire snakes, trying to smash the opponent to pieces, but unfortunately the empty shells equipped on the plane did no damage to the enemy plane, except for countless white smoke bursting in the air.

"The two planes look about the same in sensitivity?" Chen Dao said to Garland beside him.

"It seems so, except that I had to fly both planes once to determine the difference." Garland said.

"You'll have a chance."

The two planes in the scuffle ran out of ammunition, and finally ended the battle under the guidance of the ground tower, and landed on the ground one after another.

After the two planes landed, another pair of ME109T fighters and He-100 fighters, which had been on standby at the airport, took off one after another, and they were piloted by test pilots from the Naval Ordnance Bureau, and the second battle began.

No matter how exciting the battle is, you will get tired of watching it, Chen Dao stared at the information of the He-100 fighter and calculated.

It is a foregone conclusion that the HE-100 will become a land-based fighter for HNA, and the FW190 fighter is expected to be officially put into production this year, becoming the second main fighter of the Luftwaffe.

Together with the ME-109 fighter, Germany will have three types of fighter jets, and its ability to deal with enemy aircraft with complex models and diverse performance will be steadily improved in the future.

Looking at the ME-109T fighter in the air, Chen Dao couldn't help but think of another product of the Messerschmitt company, the jet ME-262.

It seems that there are only two things to do at present, one is to increase the production of aircraft and train as many pilots as possible, so that naval aviation can form combat effectiveness as soon as possible; Second, it is necessary to keep an eye on the progress of the research and development of jet fighters and make the development of this epoch-making fighter successful as soon as possible.

A piercing roar disrupted Chen Dao's thoughts, and Chen Dao looked up to find a giant plane slowly rising into the air, driven by four rapidly rotating propellers.

Chen Dao turned out the data of the JU89V2 testing machine and looked at it carefully.

"We now have our own planes, and I think we should contact the Air Force and have them send the instructors from the Fourth Aviation School to train my pilots as soon as possible, without any further delay." Leibniz said.

"Let Garland do it." Chen Dao said, and then looked down at the information again.

Goering didn't even come to me to apologize, I wouldn't have contacted him to see who could survive whom?

On the regimental headquarters training ground of the Herman Goering regiment, the fat Goering stood beside the skinny Mandolfer, pointed to two tanks he had never seen before, and asked: "What type of tank is this?" How is there no turret? It is armed with a 105-mm gun? ”

"This is a new type of weapon developed by the Škoda Arsenal, which Colonel Rosen gave him the name of the No. 4 assault gun, which is armed with a 105mmL28 gun. His task was to replace infantry artillery. There is no turret because it is faster and cheaper to produce. Mandolfil said.

When Goering heard Mandolfer mention Chen, he quietly asked, "Has Heinz been back lately?" ”

"No, we've been in contact by phone and telegram lately, and I sometimes write to him," Mandolfil said. ”

A hint of disappointment flashed in Goering's eyes, and then he picked up his spirits and asked, "What are those two tanks?" Why is there no turret either? ”

"They are tank destroyers number four, and they are armed with 75mmL60 guns, which are used to replace the 37mm anti-aircraft guns, and this is the case when encountering enemy tanks. If they did not encounter enemy tanks, they would work part-time as infantry guns to assist the paratroopers in destroying enemy pillboxes and machine-gun positions. The absence of turrets, in addition to the simplification of production, made it possible to reduce the height of the vehicle, making them less easily exposed, and their front armor was strengthened. ”

Goering listened absentmindedly to what Mandolfil said, patted Mandolfer on the shoulder and said: "The naval aviation has just been established, and Heinz has been very busy lately and has no time to come back, so you have to fulfill the duties of the regimental commander for him." If you encounter any difficulties that cannot be solved, contact me and I will solve them for you. ”

"Marshal, I will." Mandolfil said.

After breaking up with Mandolfel, Goering twisted his round body and walked to the car, frowning and muttering, Heinz, you really didn't come back!

A week later, on the third floor of the Naval Aviation Headquarters, Chen Daofu looked at the telegram in his hand on his desk, and whispered in his mouth: "Four pork knuckles, six loaves of bread and six cabbages, forty-two carriages, and two trumpet fishing rods are on their way home." A third of the family members already have a sausage in their hands. ”

Chen Dao then wrote on a blank piece of paper: four No. 4 tanks, six No. 4 assault guns, six No. 4 tank destroyers, 42 Type 251 half-tracks, two 105-mm self-propelled guns (on the road), and one battalion of M1 semi-automatic rifles.

Chen Dao turned his head to look at the calendar on his desk, and said in his heart that today is the 10th of February, and according to the current progress, he should be able to complete the change at the end of March.

It's not easy to save some money! Chen Dao finally couldn't be relieved, picked up the phone on the table, and dialed the number of the Skoda Arsenal・・・・・・
