The main force of the sortie was the "fighter" bomber, Philip's plane, which first started the engine and took off quickly from the runway, and the advantage of a single-engine bomber was that it was fast!

And behind him, one bomber after another, taxied from the runway, took off, and immediately after takeoff, they flew westward, ready to cross Egypt and enter Libyan airspace. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At the same time, in the rear of the formation, there were fourteen bombers much larger than them.

The Bristol-Blenheim bomber, a twin-engine light bomber used by the British Air Force at the beginning of World War II, was developed and manufactured by the Bristol Aircraft Company. It was widely used in Britain and its overseas colonies in the early part of the war.

The original Mk.I began to be equipped in late 1936, and by the end of 1937 there were 16 flying groups equipped with this aircraft. In 1938, the aircraft began to be delivered to overseas colonial territories, and at the outbreak of World War II, most of the Mk.1 fighters were deployed in the Mediterranean and Africa. And now, the 47th Bomber Squadron is equipped with this twin-engine bomber, which is also the most advanced bomber in the Egyptian air base.

Three squadrons of bombers, more than fifty aircraft, formed a large group, flying in the direction of Libya.

When Germany began to extract oil in Libya, Britain has been conducting reconnaissance in Libya, so they easily discovered a large number of kowtowers in that desert, which is the main oil-producing area of Libyan oil fields, the Amal oil field.

Germany attaches great importance to the Amal oil field, and even built an oil pipeline to the port, and at the same time, next to the oil field, started the construction of a runway to facilitate the transportation of equipment.

More than fifty planes, in the sky, the scene is quite spectacular, but it is unrealistic to blow up all the oil fields in Libya at once, so they can only bomb one of them first, of course, pick up the largest Amal oil field!

On the bomber of the lead Philip, the navigator Norton, drew a straight line on his chart, and after taking off from the base, their course was aimed at the Amal oil field!

The entire group of planes, flying at an altitude of 3,000 meters and a speed of 300 kilometers per hour, flew towards a distant target, and at this time, everyone was extremely nervous and angry.

Bomb the oil fields of the Germans and let them know how good the RAF is!

Their entire formation, full of bombers, and there was no fighter escort, however, they did not care.

These two types of bombers are both high-speed bombers, relying on speed to defeat the opponent, and the performance of the bomber is comparable to that of a fighter.

Secondly, they have nothing to worry about, the Italians simply did not deploy an air force on a large scale in Libya, and they are a sneak attack, and the other side absolutely does not know!

Of course, this is the British philosophy.

In the era when there was no radar, it was difficult to provide sufficient early warning time for an air attack by enemy bombers by relying only on ground air defense observations, and fighters generally only had time to intercept bombers on their way back.

Therefore, a light bomber with high speed and good maneuverability is considered to have considerable superiority in terms of survivability. Therefore, the fast light bomber can also be said to be a reasonable choice in this combat theory and environment.

It's a pity that the British, have fallen behind.

In the easternmost part of Libya, in the desert, an 8*8 driven Ford truck has a huge antenna in the back compartment.

From a distance, this huge antenna looks like a tall scaffold, and the sides of the Ford truck are hydraulically supported to hold the radar properly.

At the same time, next to it, there are several support vehicles, one of which is rumbling, it is a power generation vehicle, and the huge electricity, through thick cables, is transmitted to the radar vehicle next to the antenna, and then through various circuits, it is fed to the antenna.

Dense electromagnetic waves flew into the sky.

This is the latest radar developed at the Libyan base, codenamed FuGM 39 "Fort Urz" short-range warning radar. The working frequency is 560MHz, the effective detection distance is 170 kilometers, the ranging accuracy is 100 meters, and the angle measurement accuracy is 0.2 degrees.

Historically, this radar was created in about 43 or 44 years, and in terms of radar, Germany is not lagging behind, but now, the time has been greatly advanced.

In addition to this radar, the base is also developing a long-range warning radar with a detection range of 300 kilometers.

In the compartment of another equipment car, two radar soldiers, sweating profusely, were on duty, and the weather in Libya was really too hot.

They were even untidy, wearing only a vest on their upper body, which was already soaked at this time, and their eyes were still staring closely at the radar screen, on which a bright line was turning, representing that the radar was scanning.

Suddenly, a radar soldier's eyes widened, and countless bright spots appeared on his screen!

"We found a large group of machines, with a height of three thousand and a speed of three hundred, coming towards us!"

"Quick, report to the base immediately and activate the emergency plan!"

When the battle in Scapa Bay is over, this outpost will be deployed, at least to buy more than half to an hour of preparation time for the oil base in the rear!

The oil base is the most important source of oil for Germany at present, although Germany has a large amount of oil reserves, we must also protect the safety of the base here!

The message of the early warning soon reached the Amal oil field, and the head of the Libyan oil base, Neuer, and the head of the Amal oil field, Kerim, immediately gave an order: "Prepare to ignite the ignition point!" ”

Here, the most important thing is oil!

There are a large number of oil workers in the entire base, and now, their fate has long been linked to here.

As soon as the order was received, the oil workers also got busy.

In the entire oil base, the most important thing is the oil barrel, although the main oil is through the pipeline, but there is still a large number of oil barrel inventory.

And now, many oil drums have been cut in half from the middle.

These two-half oil drums were deployed to various pre-designed placement points in the desert, and now, it was to pour crude oil into them, and the black viscous crude oil was quickly filled with half of the barrels.

The oil base, the most lacking, is crude oil, although a refinery has been built here to refine crude oil, but it is mainly used to meet the needs of industrial equipment and various vehicles in Libya, and the output is not very high.

Next, it's just a matter of waiting for the order to light it!

This kind of ignition point is everywhere, not only next to the oil well, but also in the surrounding desert area, covering a large area!
