Chapter 616: Carpet Bombing A

At a distance of four hundred meters, Glinka pressed the machine gun launch button, and the dense machine gun bullets splashed two conspicuous bullet marks longitudinally outside the hangar, and the two Mercedes Mit 109s were immediately surrounded by barrage and burst into flames!

Several German ground crews near the plane were also hit, and the human body was even thrown by the kinetic energy of a large-caliber machine gun bullet!

Because the distance was still far away, Green could adjust the angle slightly to the right and press the rocket launch twist at a distance of less than 200 meters!

Clouds of smoke suddenly rose from under the wings of the MiG-3, and all 16 rockets were fired in less than 5 seconds! The height of the Glinka landline is very low, the depression angle is also small, and the rockets are fired at the long row of hangars at a small angle, and the explosion point is in the shape of a long strip!

16 bombing points, entire hangars surrounded by explosions and smoke: 82 mm rockets, although not very powerful, were more than a mistake to blow up these hangars made of iron sheets. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Two MiGs pounced on the transport planes on the tarmac, and under the attack of rockets, those two Junkers instantly turned into corrugated aluminum scrap!

Out of the corner of his eye, Glinka, who pulled up the nose of the plane, saw that the towers on the flanks had collapsed, and a huge fireball rose in the distance: the 3rd squadron destroyed the oil depot of the airfield! Fighters climbed at a large angle, looking down from the air, the two rows of hangars at the airfield had been completely reimbursed, and even the anti-aircraft artillery positions had been destroyed by strafing and rocket attacks!

A few trucks were parked farther away, and they were being strafed by two MiGs - in just a few tens of seconds, all man-made structures at the airport had been destroyed, except for the lawn and apron that served as runways!

"Guys, almost, go south!" Glinka gave two orders in a row on the intercom, and the MiGs who were ravaging the airport climbed to altitude and reformed behind the pilot fuselage.

Climbing altitude, one could see that the two huge groups of planes in the distance - the Pi-8 bomber formation and the IL-4 long-range bomber formation bombing the smelter had entered their respective bombing routes.

In several pilots (if one of them has an accident during the sortie, the other will take the top position, the fleet generally has more than two pilots. The Pi-8 bomber is equipped with the latest Type 41 bombing sight, which means that Marina Mikhailovna Raskova's right eye is attached to the sight sight, adjusting the knob.

"Open the bomb bay hatch and hold steady!"

Now the pilot bomber in the pilot aircraft is the actual supreme commander of the entire formation, and without her orders, it is surrounded by anti-aircraft shells and German fighters, and the formation must also maintain a formation and never waver!

The German fighters had not yet appeared, and the sparse smoke in the air indicated that the German anti-aircraft artillery was firing: not as violently as expected before the sortie.

The Type 41 bombing sight claims to be able to drop bombs from a height of 3,500 meters into the mouth of a well, and although it is an exaggeration, the bombardier is more accurate in dropping bombs through it than using the original bomb sight - through the bombing sight, Raskova's eyes do not blink!

All bombers will obey her orders, and after the pilot drops the bomb, all bombers will drop their bombs together, creating a carpet bombing effect!

"Steady, steady...... Bombing! Raskova pressed the bomb button, "It's already dropped!" ”

Zhdanov clearly felt that the plane was lighter - a full four tons of high-explosive bombs, four 500-kilogram bombs and 20 100-kilogram bombs!

This time, 88 Pi-8 heavy bombers actually sorted, each with a bomb load of almost four tons, but the bomb types were different: 20 were each carrying two super-heavy bombs weighing 1.8 tons and four 100-kilogram aerial bombs; 20 were equipped with the same configuration as the pilot; 28 were eight 250-kilogram bombs and 20 100-kilogram aerial bombs; and the other 20 were each carrying 10 250-kilogram solidified ****** and six 250-kilogram high-explosive bombs.

In total, 88 heavy bombers carried more than 350 tons of bombs, a total of 40 1800 kg class, 80 500 kg bombs, 344 250 kg bombs, 1040 100 kg high explosive bombs plus 200 250 kg solidified ******!

The bomb type is complicated, one is to achieve the best bombing effect, but this reason is secondary - according to Zhdanov's request, the formation should bring more 250 kg of aerial bombs this time, instead of carrying thousands of 100 kg of little guys: so many aerial bombs cannot be adjusted at once, and even the coagulation ****** that are not the best in this case can be used to fill the number!

Many 100-kilogram bombs were urgently dispatched from nearby fighter airfields, and that was the reason: it was easy for planes to assemble, but logistical difficulties to keep up.

As the pilot dropped the bombs, the entire formation began to drop bombs, and more than 1,800 bombs fell to the ground from east to west and from the sky like a dense hail!

The explosion point is just below, like a blood-colored carpet, and the dense explosive bombs densely cover the entire mining area from east to west!

Looking down from a height of 3,500 meters, the explosion point of a small bomb is not very obvious, like setting off a firecracker; And the explosion point provoked by those 1800-kilogram super-heavy bombs is very clear - tall and big!

The dense buildings in the mining area were covered by this carpet of death that fell from the sky, and the reinforced concrete buildings were like cardboard houses that were easily destroyed in the wind, and collapsed in the dense and violent explosions - the super-heavy bombs hit them more simply, not collapsed, but "disappeared" in an instant!

Zhdanov thinks that 100 kg of small bombs are too many, and the power of a single bomb is not enough -- they may not be powerful enough against the strongest reinforced concrete projects, but for ordinary factories and buildings, 100 kg of aerial bombs with more power and charge than 203 mm grenades and high-explosive bombs are enough!

The tall No. 1 concentrator building was smashed through the roof by two 100-kilogram aerial bombs, and the bombs fell into the building before exploding violently! The energy stirred up by dozens of kilograms in each bomb tore through the solid shells in an instant, and the shrapnel and shock wave turned the long and tall concentrator in the building into a pile of scrap metal!

Two seconds later, a 500-kilogram high-explosive bomb hit the smoke-emitting building again, and after a violent explosion, only half of the walls of the entire building were still erected!

Compared to another nearby concentrator building, its fate was good - it no longer existed under the blow of a 1,800-kilogram high-explosive bomb!

There were also many dazzling fireballs in the dense gray explosion point, and 200 solidified ****** turned most of the mine into a sea of fire in tens of seconds!

The entire Knaben molybdenum mine was densely covered by a rain of bombs, and even the edge of the nearby hill was hit by many bombs! Hell is nothing more than that for the people in the mines! The farthest impact point was definitely less than 50 meters apart, and in most places there were several bombs within a diameter of 100 meters!

When the bombing formation passed over the mining area, Glinka and the others who came from the flank looked down from the air and could see that the target had been completely destroyed -- not to mention the fires, such a dense explosion point alone was not something that any equipment or plant could survive!

(In view of the recent rampant mad dogs in the book review section, after consultation with the editor, I decided not to pay attention to the book review section before the year, so as not to sulk unnecessarily.) After the year, we will unify the refinement and awards for book friends, and I hope you will forgive me. A book friend said it well: just like Guo Degang said. Haha, add 15 points! Hehe.
