Chapter 1767: Suspicious Targets Found

Iceland, long-range radar station.

By now, Germany's ground warning radar has been perfected, and the radar station established near the Icelandic capital can monitor the airspace within a range of 300 kilometers, and now it is rotating at a time of six revolutions per minute.

On the radar screen, several vague bright spots appeared, and the radar soldier rubbed his eyes vigorously, thinking that he was dazzled.

Then he saw the bright spots disappear from his screen from southwest to northeast.

What is that? Could it be some special cloud reflection? The radar soldier shouted to the squad leader on duty: "Several suspicious targets were found, from southwest to northeast, and then disappeared." ”

Hearing his words, the squad leader immediately walked over in a few steps and said, "Is the goal clear?" ”

"I don't know, it's vague, it's gone now, maybe it's a special cloud reflection at high altitude, right?"

"No way, the air flow in the high altitude here is not in that direction, it may be a large bomber formation, they fly very densely, and there will be vague bright spots, and there are many of them."

In order to obtain a longer observation distance, and at the same time to reduce the technical difficulty, the long-range warning radar is almost always based on meter waves, although it can see far, but it is not clear.

A few vague targets may be a large group of bombers flying in dense formation, so there is such a situation on the radar screen, and a vague bright spot may be several aircraft.

Hearing the squad leader's words, the radar soldier was immediately nervous.

Bomber? From that direction, if you draw a route to pass, it should be southern Canada, or even the mainland of the United States, what are they flying here for? Was it to bomb Europe?

No, report it immediately.

Before he could report it, those bright spots appeared on the screen again, this time, from the east.

"New targets have been discovered, coming from the east, and are sailing west from the northern seas of Iceland." The radarman continued.

"Sure enough, it's still them!" The squad leader's hand quickly drew a line on the chart, and the targets that had just been discovered sailed in a northeasterly direction, and then turned back in the airspace ahead, and turned around, if it wasn't for the traces of them just now, and thought that they were flying from Europe, they would definitely relax their vigilance.

"Immediately report to the superiors that an unknown group of planes was discovered, which was flying from the east to the west, and the No. 46 route of civil aviation could be a group of American bombers." The squad leader said.

With the continuous deployment of radar, there are no secrets at high altitudes.

The radar station reported to Berlin, and then moved to Wolf Valley 2, at this time, in the Wolf Valley 2 base, everyone was paying attention to the sneak attack of the Americans.

When the report from this radar station came, Richthofen spoke first: "This should be the last killer move of the Americans, they use a large number of warplanes to attract our naval fighters from the western airspace, and then use bombers to sneak attack from the east, these bombers must be carrying the secret equipment of the last bombing of the island nation's fleet." ”

Ciric nodded: "Their time is really accurate, now, the main air defense fighters in the fleet have been dispatched, and even some HS129s have begun to go out as temporary air defense fighters, and they really can't spare the strength to block this new bomber." ”

"yes, Raeder is going to make a fool of himself this time." Richthofen said with a smile: "Fortunately, the batch of fighters that took off from Iceland now turned around and flew eastward, just in time to intercept them in the sea area one hundred kilometers east of the aircraft carrier formation." ”

The contradiction between the Navy and the Air Force is not great, and Richthofen said this purely as a joke and without any malicious intent.

Ciric nodded: "Hurry up and inform the front, otherwise it will be too late." ”

While the situation was being discussed quickly in the Wolf Valley 2 base, on the aircraft carrier Hitler, Mashal was also studying the situation.

More and more enemy planes were discovered, and more and more interceptor fighters were dispatched, and in the airspace behind the rear of their own fleet, the fighting was very lively, but there was always a feeling that something was missing.

Most of the planes that came this time were the latest American-made fighters, the Army's Mustang, the Navy's F4U and the like, and all kinds of planes were fighting in a melee, which brought tremendous pressure to their own air defense.

Suddenly, Machar patted himself on the head and thought!

Why haven't those trump cards of the Americans, the B-29 bombers, carrying guided bombs, have come yet?

They will definitely come, and now, the Americans' most powerful killing move has not yet been used, and what about their own side? I've started to use HS129 to make up the numbers, what should I do?

"Report, the base camp called, a large number of suspicious aircraft have been found in the eastern part of our fleet, and the fighters from Iceland who have come to reinforce have turned and are ready to intercept."

It is a taboo to skip the command level, especially in such a naval and air battle in which the battle situation changes drastically, and if it is not particularly critical, the base camp will not interfere with the command and operation of the front line.

At this moment, from the Hindenburg-class battleship at the forefront of the fleet, the ship's long-range early warning radar had also vaguely discovered something.

"In front of our formation, a suspicious group of aircraft appeared!"

The Americans thought that flying on the route of civil aviation could maintain maximum concealment, but unfortunately, the times are developing, technology is advancing, when Germany attacked Scarpa Bay, the radar was still quite primitive, and a large group of bombers could also pretend to be a target, anyway, it was a vague bright spot.

And now, with the improvement of clarity, there are already several bright spots, and if it is a civil aviation, there will definitely not be several planes flying together.

And it is impossible for a few bombers to fly, so there is no bombing effect.

"Attention, all Novotny Brigade, immediately turn around and fly towards the airspace east of the fleet." After receiving the order, Captain Novotny shouted over the radio: "There is a suspicious group of aircraft in the eastern part of the fleet, let's go and intercept it!" ”

Sitting inside the Storm Bird in the bubble-shaped cockpit, Novotny's heart was very excited.

If you rush to the airspace west of the fleet, it will be a big scuffle, which is not good for the jets, after all, the jets are fast, and they must identify the target before attacking, so as to prevent accidental hits.

And now, heading to the east of the fleet, it is their own main battlefield of jets, and the target may also be bombers, he turned his head to look at the rockets mounted on the wings on both sides, well, it is simply tailor-made for bomber formations.
