Chapter 1728: Shar Pei (Gal. 3)

In history, Lieutenant Colonel Emile Lange is not famous, after all, from the German ace pilots, it is easy to find a large number of ace pilots with hundreds of records, and such as Lange, who shot down less than 200 aircraft, is not ranked at all.

However, he also has his own glory, in history, he once set a record of 18 shot down in a single day, which is the highest record holder for a German fighter pilot.

As in history, Lieutenant Colonel Emile Lange was just a brilliant track and field athlete and Lufthansa pilot last year, flying the Junkers-52 three-engine transport plane, known as Aunt Juncker, for civilian transport.

Like everyone else, Lieutenant Colonel Lange was eager to join the fighter force, and after repeated failed attempts to become a fighter pilot in the Air Force, he turned to the Navy.

After all, the Air Force has saved a large number of pilots, and Lieutenant Colonel Lange is too old, last year, he was already over 30 years old, and for pilots, before the age of 30 should be considered the golden age.

Therefore, Lieutenant Colonel Lange was not absorbed by the Air Force, but successfully entered the Navy, which needed the largest number of pilots with the construction of aircraft carriers compared to the Air Force.

Although he used to fly a transport plane, now he has switched to flying a fighter plane, but Lieutenant Colonel Lange quickly mastered all the flying skills, and although he is older, he is not inferior to the others, Lieutenant Colonel Lange has efficiently completed the training program and officially became a carrier-based aircraft pilot at the end of last year.

Later, after several missions, he was promoted to lieutenant colonel, and he has already achieved more than ten shootdowns.

Now, the most glorious day of Lieutenant Colonel Lange has finally arrived.

"Shar Pei report, Shar Pei report, found a group of American fighter jets, more than a hundred, request to attack, request to attack." Lieutenant Colonel Lange shouted over the radio.

He and his wingman were originally on patrol flights, but now, when they flew near the target, they immediately became excited.

Lieutenant Colonel Lange's radio nickname is Shar Pei, as you can tell from his photograph.

The empire is rich in handsome guys, especially soldiers, and those top ten flying aces are all handsome guys one by one.

And Lieutenant Colonel Lange's appearance is really not close to the handsome guy, and the years have left traces on his face, turning him into the face of Shar Pei, and after he was called, he was not angry, and simply used Shar Pei as his radio codename.

In terms of age, he is already a veteran, but in the heart of Lieutenant Colonel Lange, there is still a young passion.

He was not afraid, in his eyes, those planes were his prey.

Getting closer and closer, getting closer and closer, when he saw those planes flying at ultra-low altitude on the sea level, Lieutenant Colonel Lange was even more excited in his heart, it was actually the F2A Buffalo that came, and he was simply here to send himself the results of the battle!

This aircraft looks like it has been pinched, thick and short, very similar to the fuselage of the I-15, although when designed, various performance indicators are very strong, but in fact, because of the subsequent overweight, this aircraft has become the worst model, belonging to the bottom of the maritime food chain.

These planes are simply here to brush up their own achievements, and Lieutenant Colonel Lange is happy in his heart, and at the same time he beckons his wingman and dives down from a height of three thousand meters.

In the Arctic, it is very inconvenient to observe, everywhere is a white expanse, and many times it is not clear to see.

At this time, the two flying F190 fighters approached almost in the unsuspecting situation of the other party.

"Tom, tom!" By the time of the dive, Lieutenant Colonel Lange had already taken easy aim at an airplane, and the shaft gun in the nose roared, and with just four shells, the fighter in front exploded in the air.

At this time, the American aircraft group found out that the situation was not good, and they were actually attacked by German carrier-based aircraft more than a hundred nautical miles away from the target!

"Attention, climb, climb now!" The commander of the formation shouted loudly over the radio, one F2A after another, ready to climb up from the sea level.

Although there is no such thing as energy maneuvering, however, the altitude of the aircraft is crucial, and at sea level, they are absolutely beaten.

There was a curse on the radio, some scolding the Germans, some scolding the men who had made the battle.

Why fly at ultra-low altitudes?

Before taking off, they were given the task of flying at an ultra-low altitude, which is said to be because the German fleet had a well-developed ship-based radar that could search for flying objects at a height of more than 100 kilometers around, and they wanted to approach the German fleet, and ultra-low-altitude flight was the most suitable.

However, this plan has already proven to be unfeasible, they were attacked by the opposing fighters at a great distance from the German fleet, which is simply a slap in the face, how stupid is an ultra-low-altitude raid!

A pilot pilots the F2A and begins to climb upwards, the engines in front of it rumble and burst out with maximum power, the propellers are turning at full speed, and the whole plane is crawling upwards with difficulty.

"Tom, tom!" Suddenly, there was the sound of a cannon behind him, and then he felt his tail shaking, and the lever did not obey, and he turned his head to see that black smoke had begun to come out of the tail.

It's horrible! As he was climbing, he was attacked from the tail.

He pushed open the hatch and jumped with difficulty, the water below was icy cold, and he had no choice.

The second one!

This day was the time when Lieutenant Colonel Lange performed miracles, and at the same time, it was also the largest clash between the fighter forces of the German Navy and the American Navy.

The main thing that constrained Lieutenant Colonel Lange's achievements was the number of enemy planes, and he wanted to shoot down enemy planes, but the airspace around him was clean, and he couldn't find a target at all, so he couldn't establish a result.

And now, all around are densely packed with American fighter planes, and Lieutenant Colonel Lange is like a fish in water, jumping up and down in the opponent's fleet.

"Da-da-da-da." The machine guns on the wings opened fire, and a dense burst of bullets entered the opponent's cabin, and the opponent lay on the operating stick, motionless, and blood splattered the entire cockpit.

The third!

"Shar Pei, you're amazing!" Following Lieutenant Colonel Lange, his wingman let out a single exclamation.

The German fighter formation was mainly a two-plane formation, and the wingmen behind Lieutenant Colonel Lange followed him in the American fleet to protect his back, while Lieutenant Colonel Lange could confidently and boldly fight the enemy among the enemy planes.
