On the outskirts of Calais, the airfield of the German Army Air Corps. The 3rd Fighter Wing and the 4th Bomber Wing of the German Army Air Corps were stationed here. The 3rd Fighter Wing is armed with 120 F2 fighters, while the 4th Bomber Wing is armed with H1 bombers.

Although, compared with the beautiful and powerful fighters and bombers of later generations, these F2 fighters and H1 bombers equipped by the German Army Air Corps are undoubtedly like ugly ducklings. However, it has to be admitted that they are already the most powerful fighters and bombers of this era. At the very least, Germany's opponents did not want to be equipped with a similar aircraft, so that they could withstand the German air battle.

Of course, the more advanced aircraft being developed in Germany are more powerful than the F2 fighter and the H1 bomber. It's just that the technology is not yet mature, so it has not yet been mass-produced. When the next batch of advanced aircraft is mass-produced, the German army's air power will be improved again, leaving other countries far behind.

At the airport, it's busy. Ground crews are refueling and reloading ammunition for fighter jets and bombers that are about to take off. The pilots, who are hurrying to eat breakfast and listen to combat briefings. These pilots made daily sorties, bombing British ground targets, and it became their daily routine.

"Chief, we have been bombarding the British positions for three days in a row. It also caused a lot of casualties to the British. But why didn't the British plane appear. I can only bully the anti-aircraft weapons hiding on the ground every day, which is too boring. A young pilot complained.

"The planes of the British were all shrunken turtles in the rear, and they did not dare to fight at all. Don't dare, I'm sure they'll be out in the near future. If we continue like this, we will be close to covering the infantry to Canterbury. When the time comes, will the planes of the British still be able to hide behind? The squad leader said.

"Okay, don't talk nonsense. Everyone gets on the plane and covers the 41st Brigade to launch an attack on British targets! The captain of the 31st Fighter Group ordered.

The number of the German Army Air Corps is a single number for fighters, such as the 3rd Fighter Wing, and the double number is for the bomber wing, such as the 4th Bomber Wing. For each wing, there are 3 brigades, and there are squadrons and squads under the brigades.

Each squad, a total of four aircraft, is divided into two two-plane formations, one long plane with one wingman. Three squadrons for a squadron of 12 aircraft. Three squadrons plus four spare aircraft for a group of 40 aircraft. The three battalions are one wing, with a total of 120 aircraft. As for the aviation forces above the wing, they have not yet been created. It is estimated that it will not be established until after the establishment of the Imperial Air Force.

"Yes, sir!" The pilots all replied, and then, with the help of ground crew, got into their respective planes.

Fifteen minutes later, 36 F2 fighters of the 31st Fighter Group took off from the airfield and flew west of the Strait of Dover to escort the 36 H1 bombers of the accompanying 41st Bomber Group.

The fighters of the 31st Fighter Group were tasked with protecting the safety of these bombers. The threat comes not only from the sky, but also from the ground. Although, the planes of the British Air Force have not appeared for a long time, they do not dare to take it lightly. Although the British Air Force's fighter performance was far inferior to the Luftwaffe's F2 fighter, the bulky bombers were still vulnerable to these planes and could easily be shot down. The threat on the ground is mainly the anti-aircraft weapons equipped by the British Army. Once these anti-aircraft weapons are discovered, fighter jets need to strafe them, even bombing them with small bomblets hanging under the wings, and remove these obstacles so that the bombers can not be threatened.

The narrow Strait of Dover took only ten minutes to fly through. When the plane flew over the British mainland, the pilots got nervous. This is an enemy airspace, and if it is shot down, even if it is parachuted, it will fall into the enemy's control area. Once caught, even a fool can guess what the consequences will be. Those angry British, they will inevitably be torn to shreds.

Fortunately, there was no danger along the way, and it was not intercepted by the British Air Force, and it had already flown over the target.

"Prepare to drop the bomb!" The captain of the 41st Bomber Group ordered.

With the advancement of radio technology, the aircraft equipped by the front-line units of the German Army Air Corps have been equipped with radio communication devices, which can make the commander's orders smoothly transmitted to each aircraft. For this alone, the German Army Air Corps was already ahead of the rest of the world.

More than thirty H1 bombers, began to reduce altitude, preparing to drop bombs.

The target they were going to bomb was the position of a British infantry division southwest of Canterbury. Previously, the battleships of the German Navy had already carried out heavy shelling of this area. Most of the British fortifications had already been destroyed. Sending the Army Air Corps over is nothing more than destroying the fish that slipped through the net.

"Da Da Da!"

On the ground, tongues of fire suddenly burst out. This is the British anti-aircraft machine gun firing.

"Pull up! Hurry up and pull it up! The captain of the 41st Fighter Group shouted.

The structure of the H1 bomber was fragile, with only a thin layer of armor in key areas. These armors could not even withstand the bullets fired by anti-aircraft machine guns.

The bullets fired from the British anti-aircraft machine guns hit the body of the H1 bomber and pierced through.

The wing of one of the H1 bombers was broken, the plane lost its balance and fell directly to the ground. The jet fuel carried on the plane, plus the bomb, exploded.

"Boom!"

A violent explosion sounded, and the downed H1 bomber had become a flaming fireball.

Under the sneak attack of the British anti-aircraft machine guns, the Germans shot down a full three H1 bombers. The other bombers pulled up again and flew high into the air, which escaped the catastrophe. However, quite a few planes were still damaged and had to hurriedly drop their bombs and flee.

"Damn! 1st squadron, clearing the ground of the anti-aircraft fire of the British. The captain of the 31st Combat Brigade also felt that his face was hot. I've done this many times before, but I've never made a mistake like this. Now, it is undoubtedly a shame that three bombers have been lost!

12 F2 fighters, immediately rushed to the ground, ready to teach the British air defense a lesson.
