Finland, airbase.

Several strangely shaped planes, on the tarmac on the side, are preparing for takeoff.

From the outside, it is easy to see that this aircraft belongs to the biplane, but, unlike most biplanes, its cockpit is a fully enclosed bubble cockpit, and in the biplane, this unique shape of the aircraft is easy to identify.

Gladiator fighter of British production, from the SS-37 biplane fighter developed by the Gloucester company on its own in 1934.

It has been proven that biplanes are outdated, however, the replacement of aircraft is not particularly fast, for example, the Soviet Union, which is still equipping monoplane and biplane fighters simultaneously.

And this gladiator fighter is not the equipment of the Finnish Air Force, but the equipment of the Swedish volunteer squadron.

When the Soviet Union began to invade Finland, many foreigners volunteered to fight in Finland, but the Finns chose the conditions of harshness, and in reality few foreigners participated in air combat.

Historically, the only organized unit of foreign aviation was the Swedish volunteer squadron: the 19th Fighter Squadron, commanded by Major Beckhamar. The pilots and technicians of the squadron came from the Swedish Air Force, and they were armed with a dozen "Gladiator" fighters and 4 "Hart" dive bombers.

Now, unlike history, Germany has imported a large number of fighters and has more pilots of the Volunteer Army, so that Finland has always held air supremacy, but the Swedish 19th Fighter Squadron also has good results.

In recent months, they have flown a total of 464 sorties, lost five aircraft in combat and one aircraft in one accident. At the same time, the pilots of the squadron destroyed 8 Soviet aircraft, including 1 TB-3 heavy bomber.

With the advent of winter, the harsh climate has reduced the number of sorties of fighters, and at the same time, the advantages of biplanes have been even more apparent, their take-off and landing performance is more excellent, and they are more able to adapt to harsh environments.

Therefore, Sweden's fighter squadron has taken on more aerial reconnaissance missions, and their aircraft are indeed outdated, and they are somewhat incapable of being used for air combat, but it is not bad to use them for reconnaissance.

Major Hamar stepped into his cockpit, dressed in a full flight suit, which was warmed up and warm.

Sweden and Finland are both high-latitude countries where men have adapted to the cold, and their planes have been modified with preheating.

"Start the engine." Major Hamar said.

With his command, the side of the ground power cart, providing ample power, the motor excitation sounded, and the Bristol Mercury VIIIA/AS engine was successfully started.

The propellers in front were spinning rapidly, Major Hamar released the brakes, and the plane slid onto the ice-covered runway, slid down the runway, and took off.

Below, there is a world covered in silver, and the whole earth is like a thick quilt.

If the cockpit was open, the flight would have been uncomfortable, and now, with the warmth of the inside of Major Hamar's cockpit, he wiped down the glass next to him and began to look down.

This mission, it is still a reconnaissance flight, and the other planes that take off one after another behind him will conduct reconnaissance in all directions on the battlefield, and as the person with the most experience in flying, Major Hamar's task is the most difficult, he has to fly through the defensive line, to fly to the rear of the Soviets, and observe the deployment of troops in the rear of the Soviets.

On the side of his fuselage, he has a camera, and if necessary, he has to open the hatch, poke his head out, and take pictures down with the camera on the slide, after all, this is a one-man fighter, and everything depends on him to operate.

The wings in front blocked a large field of vision, and he could only look to the sides to have a better observation, the only advantage was that now with the arrival of the harsh winter, the Soviet fighters took off very little, and there was no need to worry about possible encounters.

The plane flew over the mountains, flew over the woods, and the plains in front of it belonged to the USSR.

He got careful and continued to fly forward, and in front of him, there was a station, the last stop for the transportation of Soviet supplies, from which the supplies were unloaded and transported by car to the front.

It was defended quite well, especially with a large number of anti-aircraft guns, but, without a doubt, it was the easiest place to find intelligence.

Major Hamar's plane flew very low, and at the same time, he began to make a big circle, and if he flew directly from the west, he would easily be beaten, but if he flew in a big circle, from the east, it was easy to be mistaken for their own plane by the people below.

The fighter flew very low, and many times, he could even see the snowflakes on the ground being blown up, and after fifteen minutes of further flight, he turned.

Pushing open the hatch, in an instant, a cold wind came in, making him shiver, he maintained a normal flight attitude, and at the same time, leaned out, adjusted the focus, and set the camera to a continuous shooting state.

Now, it's the most thrilling flight!

"Woo, woo!" A stuffy tanker truck smoked black smoke and drove into the station.

When the white gas of braking came out, the train finally entered the station smoothly, the door of the stuffy tanker car opened, and a group of soldiers jumped from it.

"The air here is really good!" A soldier said. Compared to the filthy air inside the stuffy tanker, of course it's better here.

"Ahh Then, he sneeze involuntarily, a little cold!

On his feet, he is still wearing summer leather shoes, and on his body, he is wearing beautiful autumn clothes, which is indeed a little cold in this cold ghost place.

They are the 44th Division stationed in Ukraine, and now, the climate in Ukraine is adapting to wearing autumn clothes, however, they can't wait for the winter outfits, and in autumn clothes, they go to the battlefield.

The order for rescue was urgent, and if they did not act quickly, the 163rd Division was said to be at risk of being eaten.

At the same time, they were also confident that, as an elite army, they would come here to fight without any chance of defeat, and they brought their bands and beautiful dresses to the Finnish capital for a victory parade.

At this moment, the sound of airplanes was heard in the distance, and he looked up and saw a biplane, flying overhead.

On the plane, there is a constant bright light, which is the flash of the camera.

Is it the I-15? It doesn't look like it, the I-15 is quite stubby, and this one looks a little slender!

At this time, he was not yet conscious, and it was not until the anti-aircraft guns at the railway station sounded that he suddenly reacted that it was a Finnish plane!

The anti-aircraft guns fired only a few shots, and the plane flew away without dropping any bombs.
