Chapter 165: The Embarrassment of the Soviet Air Force (Epiphany 3)
In the past, when the Atlantic airliner was successfully developed, one of them was improved as a special plane for the visit of the German head of state, but the range and carrying capacity of the Atlantic airliner were still unsatisfactory.
Now, after the successful development of the Junkers-390, two of them have been used for new improvements, as the special plane of the head of the Sillik, which belongs to the German Air Force One passenger plane.
As an aircraft with a load of 20 tons and a range of more than 10,000 kilometers, this kind of special plane means that during the visit, there is no need to make any contact with the other party's base, the fuel in the aircraft is enough, and the six engines, even if four fail, can fly back by relying on the remaining two.
One of them was specially refitted, and it contained a luxurious Führer's suite, as well as housing for other members of the entourage, as well as a complete variety of living facilities for the personnel to use.
The other special plane was used to transport the Mercedes-Benz bulletproof car in which the Führer was traveling, as well as the Führer's guards, who would be responsible for all ground security during the Führer's travels.
As for the safety of the air, it was carried out by the F190 fighters accompanying the escort, and, after repeated negotiations, the Soviet Union finally agreed to the German plan, allowing the fighters to enter the Soviet airspace together, instead of the international practice, and handed over to the Soviet air force escort after arriving in the Soviet airspace.
But the Soviet Air Force will also send fighter planes to accompany the flight, so that when it enters Soviet airspace, the entire fleet will become a fleet of about twenty aircraft.
German fighters were on the inside, Soviet fighters on the outside.
For the Soviets, it was also an opportunity to get close to the German fighters, which was a reason for their eventual consent.
The plane is well soundproofed, the roar of the engine outside cannot enter, and in his luxurious suite, Ciric sits on the soft big bed, holding his lover's hand.
Over the years, Ciric has been busy for the empire, and Hannah is getting together less and leaving more, even if it is in the wolf's den, Hannah has always been by Ciric's side, and the two have not had many opportunities to communicate.
Now, Hannah looks at her lover with affection, the greatest man in the empire and the most powerful man in the world, and she is really happy.
"Shirek, haven't you always said that you want to encourage the people of the empire to have children? Let's not waste our time now, shall we? Hannah's hand rested on Ciric's clothes: "I want to give you another birth of five sons to the Empire!" ”
10,000 meters in the air, surging passion.
"Attention, we are about to enter Soviet airspace." Heinz Barr, the squadron leader of the F190 fighter, informed his subordinates on the radio: "Watch out for the east, the Soviets are coming." ”
Now, they arrived at the airspace of the Soviet Union on time, and according to the plan predetermined by both sides, the fighters of the Soviets will certainly come to participate in the escort after their arrival, and this is precisely the time to show the advanced combat effectiveness of the Soviet Air Force.
Heinz glanced at the meter in front of him out of the corner of his eye, and at this time, their altitude was already 12,000 meters.
The higher the altitude, the safer their flight will be, because they will not be intercepted by any fire from the ground, just keep an eye on nearby fighters.
With the development of German jets, their fighter jets have also undergone minor improvements, and the performance of the superchargers used in the aircraft has been further improved, and the F190 and now the Junkers-290 can already stably fly for long periods of time at an altitude of 12,500 meters.
And now, the altitude of their flight, gave the Soviets a big problem.
Soon, Heinz was just below the airspace in front of him and saw several bright spots, and sure enough, the Soviets caught up!
Soviet Air Force Colonel Cherkov, piloting his own fighters, was coming with his pilots at a rapid pace.
The Führer's plane to welcome the German arrival, and at the same time to show the demeanor of the Soviet Air Force, this is their mission! For this reason, his troops were specially transferred, because they were equipped with the most advanced Yak-1 fighters!
On the battlefield in Spain, the I-15 and I-16 showed their backward condition, and the Soviet aviation industry worked hard to develop new fighters, and finally, at the end of this year, several new planes completed their finalized test flights and entered the troops.
The Germans' BF109 was raging in the skies of Europe, and their F190 was an advanced fighter.
This is also the mission of the Yak-1, a single-seat fighter with a cantilevered lower wing and retractable landing gear, using a hybrid structure of metal and wood, using an M-105R liquid-cooled V-12-cylinder engine with a power of 925 kilowatts, which can make this fighter reach a top speed of 600 kilometers per hour, a ceiling of 10,000 meters, and a range of 850 kilometers.
In history, the Yak-1 was the most advanced fighter in the early Soviet period, and a large number of equipment was in the Soviet air force, and the first to operate this fighter was the current 11th Fighter Regiment.
However, when he saw those groups, Colonel Cherkov's face suddenly changed, and then, with some gritted teeth, he lowered his head and stared at his instrument.
His fleet has risen to 8,000 meters, but the German fleet is still at a higher level!
"Continue to climb, turn slowly, prepare to approach the German fleet." Cherkov shouted over the radio.
Keep climbing!
The liquid-cooled engine in front of it roared loudly, the three-bladed propeller was spinning rapidly, and the huge air flow pushed the fighter to climb and climb again, and the altimeter was turning little by little.
At the same time, because it was now a head-on flight, he had to complete the steering to be able to keep up with the opponent, but fortunately, the opponent's flight speed was not very fast.
The distance between the two sides was slowly approaching, and Cherkov felt that his plane was getting more and more difficult.
The operating stick in his hand was shaking rhythmically, and the fighter was approaching its altitude limit little by little, 10,000 meters.
At this time, the course of the aircraft was also adjusted, and the course of the other side was the same, and the position of the aircraft, although it was behind the German group, could soon catch up.
It's just that there is an embarrassment, but it is unavoidable.
Height.
They have reached their maximum altitude, and flying at this altitude limit must be carried out with caution, as they may stall and fall at any moment.
But what about the planes of the Germans? It is still above your own side, and it is estimated visually that the altitude difference is definitely more than 1,000 meters, and it is difficult to find 2,000 meters.
It's embarrassing now, how can you escort it? You can't get close to each other at all!
"The 11th Fighter Regiment calls Moscow, and the 11th Fighter Regiment calls Moscow." Cherkov's command plane, equipped with a high-power radio station, which could directly contact Moscow, said in a very bad tone: "We can't carry out escort missions, we can't carry out escort missions, we have reached an altitude of 10,000 meters, and the German fleet is about 1,500 meters above us!" ”
