Chapter 1188: The Night Owl's Battle

In Germany, there is a special group of people, night owls, during the day, they are asleep, and at night, they wake up, fly their fighters, and go on patrol.

Yes, they are the German night fighter units, they are proud troops, they have to guard the German night sky, and any enemy bombers cannot escape their sight.

Now patrolling the skies is the 3rd Group of the 3rd Night Fighter Wing of Germany, which is responsible for patrolling the airspace of 600 kilometers east of Berlin.

For them, a combat area of six hundred kilometers is simply not large, and their night fighters, enough to fly 2300 kilometers in the sky, they can conduct combat patrols for seven hours, enough for one night.

Prince Heinrich Zu Nayan Weitingen, Major, piloted his HE219 night fighter jet, patrolling the night sky.

As a German aristocrat and at the same time a fanatic, Prince Wei Yangen has been piloting night fighters for more than two years, and under his hands, the number of enemy planes shot down has reached eight, which is already the level of an ace pilot.

This is also because of the strong military power of Germany, almost no enemy came to bomb them, most of the time, they were unknown, and the results of Prince Wei Yangen's shooting down were almost all achieved when they were stationed outside.

And in history, he was the first ace of a night fighter who shot down more than eighty enemy aircraft.

Tonight, they have received the news that the Soviets have sent three batches of bombers from the direction of the Baltic Sea to bomb Berlin, and their mission is to intercept possible Soviet bombers and then destroy them!

They could not get close to the city of Berlin, where the dense anti-aircraft fire would turn any enemy bombers that came into the city of Berlin into slag, and it was very difficult to identify the enemy in this era, so it was necessary to divide the defense zone, and if they flew into the city of Berlin, they would also be attacked indiscriminately.

Their patrol area, that is, an area with Berlin as the center and a radius of 600 kilometers around, after receiving the news from the front, almost all of the night fighter wings took off, so each of their brigades only needs to be responsible for one area.

So far, ground-based radars have not given warnings, and according to the time, it is time for the Soviets to arrive.

If the Soviets were not lost, there was only another problem, the Soviets entered from a low altitude, which made it impossible for the warning radars on the ground to detect it.

And to deal with this kind of problem, it will require them to fly lower in the night fighter unit!

The engines on the wings were rumbling, almost just idling, and the speed of the plane, about 200 kilometers per hour, was only a few hundred meters above the ground, and at this altitude, the sky overhead was quite empty.

The whip-shaped antenna in the nose of the aircraft constantly radiates electromagnetic waves, and after more than ten minutes of flight, finally, bright spots appeared on the screen of the cathode ray tube in the cabin.

Found the bombers of the Soviets! Moreover, as long as it can be seen on the airborne radar, it means that the other party is in your vicinity.

"Third Brigade, attention, find the target, continue to fly forward, ready for battle." Prince Wei Yangen shouted over the radio.

The night fighters of the entire brigade were instantly excited, and the enemy was right in front of them!

At this time, they were flying eastward, and soon, in the starry sky, they saw huge shadows, the Soviets' four-engine large bombers, actually flying in the air at 800 meters, they were really bold!

It's no wonder that your own ground-based radar can't detect it.

At this time, they looked up at the sky, as long as they found the right direction, it was easy to see, but those Soviet bombers who were taller than them were not easy to spot.

In this way, the two sides flew in a staggered manner, after which, in the airspace ahead, the night fighters drew half a circle, and they turned.

Turning around, Prince Wei Yangen looked at the Soviet bomber unit that was flying forward, and gave a combat order to his subordinates: "Get under the Soviet bombers, let's fire together, don't let one go!" ”

As long as they fired, the Soviet bomber units would disperse, and in the dark night sky, there would definitely be lucky planes that would run away, and the detection range of four kilometers from the airborne radar was actually very close, and if there was a slight mistake, the other side would not be found, and if the other side drilled lower, it would be even more difficult.

Prince Wei Yangen's order was echoed by the others, and for them, this was an excellent hunting opportunity.

The pilots operated their fighters and slowly approached the Soviet bombers.

In the dark, the formation will not be particularly dense, otherwise it is easy to collide, and such a gap makes it easy for German fighters to penetrate it.

Under the belly of each bomber, there is a night fighter drilled in, and the artist is bold, and it is not too much to describe the current night fighter pilots.

What they will use is their secret weapon, the oblique music cannon on the back of the aircraft, which is specially designed to deal with the enemies above.

If they use the cannon in the nose of their own aircraft, then they have to attack behind the opponent, then they may be seen by other aircraft in the rear of the opponent, and they will not be able to destroy them completely.

Now, these bombers are paying attention to the airspace in front of them, and they do not realize that under their belly, there are actually German night fighters

Of course, it is not completely under the belly, because the oblique music system shoots forward and upward, so the night fighters follow the opponent's rear and bottom.

"Start the oblique music system."

With the order, on the back of the fuselage, two gun barrels appeared, a 30 mm MK108 cannon, these two cannons, arranged diagonally upwards at an angle of 65 degrees, each equipped with 100 rounds of ammunition, is specially tailored to the enemy's bomber force nemesis!

"Attention, the countdown is about to be counted, ready to fire and slow down the sideways." Wei Yangen continued to give orders on the radio.

"Three, two, one, fire!"

Fire!

After receiving the order, Captain Murray in the center pressed his finger to the button, and in an instant, a furious 30-mm shell shot at the back of the plane.

All the firepower, almost all together, and the entire fleet of the Soviets, unsuspecting, was hit badly.

"Boom!" The fuselage of one of the Per-8 bombers was broken, and after being cut in two, it fell downward.

"Watch the front, no, watch the back!" Each night fighter was piloted by two pilots, and at this time, behind Captain Murray, his partner was loudly reminding him.

This way of attacking under the opponent is dangerous, because after the opponent falls, it moves downward and irregularly, such as now.

The bomber, which had broken in half, smashed towards Murray's plane, and Murray skillfully pushed the lever to dodge, but at this moment, the wreckage of another bomber on the side also fell and smashed into the tail of his plane.

Despite Captain Murray's best efforts, he still did not dodge the wreckage, and the tail of the night fighter was smashed off half of the horizontal tail, and in an instant, the plane fell downward.

"514, skydive!" A call from Prince Wei Yangen came from the headset.
