If Leon had been there now, he would have recognized the fighters and screamed in amazement.

"Sea Spitfire" carrier-based fighter!

Yes, these fighters were the SeaSpitfire carrier-based fighters that appeared in the previous generation in 1941, because the British Admiralty had to implement a replacement plan in advance due to the powerful naval aviation of the German army, and like the original history, they took a fancy to the "Spitfire" fighter produced by the Super Marlin company at a glance.

And unlike the original history, the Admiralty in this life almost did not plead, and the Air Department agreed to transfer a part of the roadbed Spitfire fighter to the Admiralty for transformation, and even agreed that Super Marlin would allocate part of the production capacity that originally belonged to the Air Force Department to the Admiralty for the purpose of specializing in the manufacture of "Sea Spitfire" fighters.

In this way, the "Sea Spitfire" was born a year earlier than the original history, and the wings instigated by the little butterfly of Lyon, after all, brewed a storm!

However, the Sea Spitfire group did not wreak havoc for long, unlike the first wave of attack aircraft group, because it was a surprise attack, so the fighter escort was not allowed to escort the second wave of attack aircraft group, but there was a squadron of Do.38 fighters to escort it!

At an altitude of 5,000 meters, 24 Do.38 "Corsair" fighters had been circling and watching the battlefield below, so the pilots of this fighter squadron noticed the enemy not long after the British fighters were out of the clouds.

"Wow, British carrier-based fighter group!" Squadron Leader Sherf of the 151st Fighter Squadron smiled on the squad channel through the on-board radio, "I didn't expect them to be so kind that they really dared to come to us for trouble, 151 boys, what do you say to do?" ”

"Rush down and kick the British guy's ass, of course!" "the British! Let them know who this sky really belongs to! As soon as Sherf finished speaking, the pilots of the 151st Fighter Squadron began to cry and cry in the channel.

"In that case." Scherf pushed the joystick and drove the fighter plane down from a height of 5,000 meters, saying, "Then follow me!" Let's send these Brits into the sea with planes to feed the fish! ”

“Angriff！” The other pilots roared and swooped down after the squadron leader.

Albridson was no exception, as he drove the fighter plane towards the battlefield below, he told the wingman next to him, "Annese! Follow me! Don't scatter later! ”

"Albrison, we've been working together for so long, don't you tell me every time?" Annether smiled and followed closely to Albridson.

The German planes on this side rushed straight down, while the British pilots on the other side were busy chasing the German bomber groups, and for a while they failed to detect the Grim Reaper overhead.

It wasn't until a SeaSpitfire was split in two by a sudden cannon shell overhead, that the British pilots found themselves in ambush by the German fighter group.

“shit！ The German fleet is escorted by fighters! A British pilot with the rank of naval lieutenant was startled when he saw a group of German fighters appear above his head at some point, and hurriedly ordered by radio, "Disperse!" Spread out! ”

The British pilots were also of good quality, and after being alerted by the major, they quickly reacted to what was happening, and then maneuvered left or right to dodge the fatal blow from the overhead.

The British fighter plane that Albridson was aiming at also changed its horizontal course and made a small radius turn to the left, just in time to avoid a series of cannon shells fired by Albrison.

"Scheiße (fucking)!" Seeing that the target dodged his attack, Albridsen subconsciously cursed, and then quickly pulled up the control stick, trying to change the fighter to a dive state, wanting to continue to maintain a high altitude advantage over the Sea Spitfire.

But the inertia of the fighter when diving, how can it be so easy to counteract, although Albrison pulled up the control stick in advance, but the fighter still rushed all the way to more than 100 meters below the Sea Spitfire before leveling.

The British pilots saw the Do.38 piloted by Albrixon fall under him, how could they let go of such a good opportunity?

He immediately pushed the joystick and bit into Albrison's tail.

"Da Da Da! Woohoo! As the fighter plane shuddered, four strings of .303 bullets mixed with a dozen 20mm cannon shells were fired from the wings of the Sea Spitfire.

But unfortunately none of Albrison's pirates hit.

However, the bullets and shells that flew by the plane still shocked Albrison, he did not expect the firepower of the new British carrier-based fighter to be so fierce.

So he hurriedly turned on the engine afterburner to keep a certain distance between himself and the sea spitfire.

As for driving the fighter plane to maneuver and shake off the tail-biting Sea Spitfire, he didn't think about it at all, because he knew that the Sea Spitfire behind him would not live long.

Sure enough, before the Spitfire could fire again, the pirate piloted by Annether swooped down and successfully hit the tail of the Spitfire after several short shots.

Several 20mm cannon shells drilled into the back half of the SeaSpitfire's fuselage, mercilessly breaking its main beam, causing the entire tail of the SeaSpitfire to separate from the fuselage.

Without a tail, the poor Sea Spitfire immediately lost its maneuverability and spun around and fell into the sea from a height of 3,000 meters.

Annether saw that she had successfully shot down the sea spitfire that was biting Albrison, and laughed happily, "Haha, Albrison, you owe me my life!" ”

"Hey! I'm here to give you one more star next to the cockpit, okay. Albridson looked at Annese, who had flattened behind him, through the 6-o'clock mirror, and grinned, "Otherwise, do you think I can't get rid of that Englishman?" ”

In fact, Annether knew that Albridson deliberately did not throw off the Sea Spitfire, so as to leave himself a chance to shoot, and the reason why he said this was completely because he wanted to fight with Albrisson.

Both of them knew each other very well, and they both knew what the other would do next, a tacit understanding honed by being partners in the Spanish Civil War and fighting side by side for many years.

The two of them were fighting while finding the next Sea Spitfire.

At 9:30 a.m., the second wave of German attack aircraft, consisting of 36 dive bombers, 48 torpedo bombers, and 24 carrier-based fighters, completed the attack mission and began to return home.

Because of the obstruction of the British carrier-based fighter group, this round of attacks on the high seas fleet did not achieve great results, but only took away the seriously damaged Malaya, and took the counterattack battlecruiser to eat a torpedo, so that the counterattack ship entered about 200 tons of seawater in the bow, and the speed was reduced from 28 knots to 26 knots.

And in order to take care of the wounded battlecruisers of the Counterattack, the other British ships also increased to only 26 knots instead of going at full speed.

However, Baron Tovey didn't pay much attention to the fleet's slowdown, because the speed of 26 knots was enough for the fleet to reach the RAF Roadbed Spitfire before the next wave of German aircraft attacked.

But Baron Tovey did not expect that a fleet that he was familiar with was waiting for him not far ahead, and the commander of this fleet was named Lütjans.

However, on the other hand, on the German side, there were also unexpected things.

A Sea Spitfire followed the second wave of German attack planes as it returned from afar.

"Report to General Cunningham, discover the German aircraft carrier formation!"
