Chapter 124: BF109
"It's shameful to have a country without defense! No one can stand in the way of our great German revival! Hitler, in his characteristic tone, addressed everyone in the room. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The talent that a great leader must possess is excellent demagoguery! Ciric knew that although he had the advantage of being a traverser, he would never be able to replace the mustache, because he was too poor in speech.
The whole of Germany, under the leadership of the mustache, is thriving and becoming stronger! Now, all the people worship him incomparably!
After Hitler's speech, the entire shipyard was at its climax, and people waved their right arms and chanted the slogan of Deutsche Viva.
In the slogan, the whistle sounded, the Zeppelin was launched, and it officially began!
In the eyes of everyone, the Zeppelin slowly slid towards the water, and when it fell into the water, it splashed countless times.
It's up, it's floating! Everyone cheered.
The launch of a warship is an important ceremony, and at the same time, there is also a danger of making a fool of yourself, if there is a problem with the design of the warship, then, when you go into the water, you may really sink into the water.
Now, this heavy battleship more than two hundred meters long, and a giant ship with a full load displacement of more than 30,000 tons in the future, just slides into the water and enters the water correctly! Everyone, cheer and celebrate!
The Count Zeppelin will mature and enter service earlier than in history! And the German Navy will also usher in a peak of great development!
The ceremony of the day ended in a lively manner, and at the Admiralty, a controversy was staged again.
After the launching ceremony, Hitler was invited to the headquarters of the Navy, where he listened to the imagination of the commander of the Navy Erich, and also heard Erich's distress.
"Now, we need new carrier-based aircraft to equip our aircraft carriers, and at the same time, we need a large number of good pilots, and it is more difficult to take off and land on deck than on land, and only the best pilots can do it." Erich said.
Now, the German Navy is still embarrassed.
The aircraft carrier, which has already been launched, will enter service with the troops after more than a year of outfitting, and at this time, the Navy actually does not have aircraft!
As early as a year ago, in the midst of the struggle to attribute the aircraft carrier to the Air Force, Goering let out his words that this aircraft carrier, even if it is built, will not have a single aircraft!
And now, although the aircraft carrier has entered the water, the carrier-based aircraft has not yet landed.
"Therefore, we hope to be able to select some excellent pilots from the Air Force to join our Navy and become carrier-based aircraft aviation, and at the same time, we need a batch of the latest BF109 fighters."
Biplanes, already doomed! Although the formation of five He51 planes "destroyed" the German class, it was only an exception, if it wasn't for the tragic hand-pulled machine at that time, maybe there would have been a turnaround.
And now, this aircraft carrier has been launched, and the matter of equipping carrier-based aircraft must also be put on the agenda! And what Erich hopes for most is the newly developed BF109!
In World War II, all military fans are familiar with the Zero, Mustang, and Messerschmidt Bf109 fighters!
This is the most famous fighter of World War II, the largest number of fighters produced, the most models of fighters, a series of the most, illustrating its status!
The aircraft, from its test flight in 1935 to its official retirement in 1967, successfully proved itself to be capable of all possible missions, whether it was volley, support, night combat, reconnaissance, escort, and ground attack, the Bf 109 was the backbone of the Luftwaffe in World War II.
The Bf 109 was designed with a number of the most advanced or avant-garde technologies of its time, including a lower wing, all-metal skin, a narrow fuselage, retractable landing gear, an enclosed cockpit, and more.
Historically, Messerschmidt's fighter has always been on the verge of being abandoned, and the Bavarian Aircraft Factory at that time could not compete with other companies at all.
But now, a lot has changed from history, because of the crossing of Ciric, which led to Hitler's early ascension, and at the same time Goering became the commander-in-chief of the air force earlier.
Once in office, Goering ordered a tender to replace the current He51 biplane.
After research, the new fighter had to be a lower single wing, equipped with at least two 7.9mm MG17 machine guns, a reinforced fuselage structure capable of withstanding high-speed dives and rapid lateral rolls, and an inverted V-shaped 12-cylinder liquid-cooled engine.
Juncker and Daimler-Benz were responsible for the development of the engine, and Heinkel, Adora, and Focke-Whorf designed the airframe.
Originally, under Milch's personal influence, BFW was turned away. However, at this time, Ciric mixed in and asked for the Bavarian aircraft factory to be involved as well.
As a result, Messerschmidt was deeply moved, and under his efforts, he designed the BF109 fighter that was almost the same as that of later generations, and this aircraft, in comparison with the aircraft designed by other companies, immediately won by an absolute advantage!
What are the advantages? The chief test pilot, Dr. He-Ulsta, once drove the plane to the right for 21 consecutive weeks and then to the left for 17 consecutive weeks to rapidly circle and climb, and then made a vertical dive from an altitude of 7,500 meters, and then leveled it when it was close to the ground, during which it did not enter a dangerous tailspin state, which fully demonstrated the robustness and excellent handling characteristics of the mechanism!
This kind of action, no other kind of aircraft can do!
This is the first German military aircraft to enter practical use with a single wing under a cantilever and a retractable landing gear.
In the appearance, more straight lines are used, and in the structure, it reasonably selects high-strength thin aluminum plates and precision die-castings, many of which are obtained from the American Xiusi company.
Just a few months ago, this aircraft perfectly passed the finalized test flight and was chosen by the Luftwaffe as the main combat aircraft!
And the German Navy also admires this aircraft and hopes that this aircraft will enter service with the German Navy and become the best naval fighter!
Hearing Erich's words, Goering's face suddenly changed, his eyes were round, staring at Erich tightly, and at the same time, he waved his right hand: "No way!" This fighter, which is now the main equipment of our Air Force, has been produced for three years! Now, your navy wants planes from us, no way! ”
"Pilot, you don't think about it too!" Goering continued: "Our pilots, all of whom our Air Force has worked so hard to preserve, were sent to fly in the Soviet Union, and now, if you want to snatch them from the mouth of our Air Force, there is no way! ”
As the person who rose with Hitler, as the person who blocked Hitler's gun when he was in the beer hall, Goering was definitely Hitler's confidant.
"Unless, hand over the aircraft carrier to our Air Force to operate." Goering continued.
