283 epoch-making

Li Haoran piloted his Lei Gong 1 bomber at the height of the clouds to the target that had already been selected. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoThis single-engine bomber, or attack aircraft, can also be called a dive bomber, and may be the world's most accurate aircraft for attacking ground targets.

The reason is actually very simple, the previous bombers were not as professional as this aircraft, which gave the Lei Gong 1 dive bomber a lot of room to play. At least in the known air defense manuals, there is no information about the trajectory of the attack of such aircraft, and there are no good ways to deal with it.

But now, Li Haoran is indeed on top of the head of the Japanese Army troops, and with him flying, there are a full 210 Lei Gong 1 bombers, and almost 1,000 300-kilogram bombs on them!

If two years ago, or even a year ago, if you wanted to transport a full 30 tons of aerial bombs to the target, you might have to dispatch thousands of planes, or even more than 3,000 planes. What now? As long as there are more than 200 aircraft, it can be easily done.

They can carry these munitions, easily fly over distances of up to 400 kilometers, reach the targets they want to destroy, and drop these deadly bombs. 400 km away...... This is a range that can't be reached by artillery in the past, and it is a large rear area that has been recognized as a safe area by both warring sides!

Such a weapon that subverts people's previous common sense and cognition has re-annotated the term strategic depth. What a terrible thing it is that what was considered a safe area has now become a dangerous zone that can be attacked by the enemy at any time?

"Follow the coordinates! Now we're over the target! We're already over the target! You can descend in height, refer to the ground identification signs. The navigator behind Li Haoran said in the headset: "I'm so lucky, I haven't encountered enemy anti-aircraft fire so far." ā€

"Long Knife No. 2, Long Knife No. 2! I'm Long Knife No. 1! I'm going to descend in height, and you're following me! Long knife No. 3 you keep up with No. 2, No. 4 follows No. 3! Confirm the targets of the attack separately and check them! After Li Haoran gave the order to descend the height, his feet reversed force on each other and staggered the brake pedal under his feet.

The Lei Gong 1 dive bomber he piloted responded very sensitively, and immediately turned sideways into a new flight state. As the fuselage swung sideways, the navigator behind him began to check the blurry aerial photo in his hand, trying to find out what had been marked on it, and the target they were going to attack this time!

It was a Japanese airfield that could be described as huge, with almost 30 old Japanese biplane fighters parked on the lawn alone. On the ground, some Japanese pilots were looking at the sky in horror, watching the planes of the Ming Empire flying in groups overhead.

The roar of the engines was even louder, and the size of the aircraft was even more staggering. The figures of these Ming Army's Lei Gong 1 dive bombers swooping down from the clouds shocked the Japanese pilots who looked up. They don't know how the other side flew to this distance, you must know that this place is almost 110 kilometers away from the front line!

Even more frightening is the fact that these planes are now turning sharply from the sky, tossing and turning in the vast sky like light swifts. One after the other was extremely fast, and it was accompanied by the roar of the engine, which grew clearer and clearer as the altitude dropped.

"Quick! Fast! This must be a new plane of the Ming Empire! Call the dragon troops, let them come to their aid! Fast! On the ground, a commander of a Japanese army aviation unit ordered his subordinates to hurry up and call for reinforcements while letting his planes take off quickly to meet the battle.

He was the commander of the aviation unit who had seen the Japanese Shenlong 1 fighters, and he could judge from the roar of the engines that the planes in the sky were similar to the Shenlong 1 fighters, and it was impossible to defeat them just by relying on these old biplanes in his hands now.

Sure enough, before his subordinates could call to report the situation and ask for reinforcements, those planes of the Ming Empire in the sky began to attack like thunder. With the screeching sound of the air being torn apart, these planes of the Ming Empire rushed to the ground almost vertically from an altitude of about 4,000 meters with the roar of their engines, frightening everyone on the ground who saw the scene.

"The pilots of the Ming Empire must be crazy, are they going to commit suicide?" A Japanese pilot who was already sitting in the cabin of the biplane watched in surprise the Ming military plane above him turn sharply, and asked the ground crew around him to help him onto the plane in fright.

Before the waiting crew could answer his question, the first dive bomber had already dropped its bomb, which was very close to the ground and suddenly pulled up, resumed flight and began to climb into the sky. And the bomb dropped by this plane exploded in the middle of several biplanes parked in the distance, and the huge explosion directly lifted off these unlucky planes, as well as the equally unlucky pilots in the plane.

With his eyes wide, the pilot of the old Japanese biplane fighter could not believe what he was seeing. The huge explosion was more ferocious than the shells fired by the heavy artillery, and the precise bombing did not allow even the smaller aircraft to be spared. Can an airplane have such a terrible attack capability? Can you destroy your opponent so easily?

"Goto-kun! Start the plane! Goto-kun...... Goto-kun! The ground crew patted the pilot on the shoulder and urged him to start his plane's engine quickly. Because this ground crew can see that if you keep waiting on the ground like this, there is no difference between suicide and suicide!

"Huh? Yes! Good! Good! The pilot, Goto, hurriedly cooperated with the ground crew in front of the plane and started the plane's engine. This kind of engine requires someone to turn the propeller in front to complete the start, and it is not the pilot who turns the engine himself as soon as he pushes the switch on the engine......

After two failures, the plane's engine was finally turned, and the engine also emitted a slight black smoke on both sides of the nose of the plane, proving to people that they had worked hard!

But at this time, most of the dozens of biplane fighters in the distance had been completely destroyed by the bombs dropped by the Ming army, the airport was burning and exploding everywhere, and almost all buildings, including the command post, had been turned into ruins. The gasoline barrels stacked in the warehouse exploded violently, and some even flew dozens of meters into the air, and the Japanese ground crew and pilots who had seen all this dared to swear to the sky that they had never seen an airfield beaten like this by an opponent before today.

In fact, there were only 10 of the Ming Empire's Lei Gong 1 dive bomber units that were ordered to attack this Japanese airfield! And two of these planes did not participate in the attack, because they spotted a Japanese barracks next to the airfield and dropped bombs into it.

However, just these 8 dive bombers, the destructive power they showed, still surprised the Japanese. Not only did they destroy almost all the Japanese planes, but they also completely destroyed the entire airfield. Before the Japanese army could react, there was no need to react.

"And another plane that wants to take off? They even want to take off? Li Haoran's mood is simply too comfortable now, because in the past, he could only attack those false targets that were circled and participate in performance exercises. Today he actually attacked the enemy on the ground, and just like he imagined, it was simply enjoyable!

So after circling for half a circle, Li Haoran piloted his plane into the rhythm of the dive again, and then he aimed his nose at the runway on the ground, aiming at the Japanese biplane on the runway that was about to take off under the cover of fire and smoke.

"Run? Can you run away? While sneering in his mouth, Li Haoran pulled the trigger of the cannon. The Lei Gong 1 dive bomber was equipped with two 20 mm caliber cannons on the wings, which were used to suppress the enemy's anti-aircraft guns when attacking the ground.

Because the No. 1 tank was fed with magazines, it could only be fired in short bursts. The Lei Gong 1 dive bomber, on the other hand, uses a chain of ammunition to feed the bomb, which can pour hundreds of 20mm cannon shells onto the target's head in one go! Therefore, compared with the No. 1 tank, the Lei Gong 1 dive bomber has more firepower and more amazing suppressive power.

After aiming at the target, the guns on the wing of the Lei Gong 1 dive bomber spat out huge tongues of fire, and the dense tracer bullets suddenly enveloped the Japanese planes struggling to take off on the runway, and then easily knocked the biplane back to the state of parts.

How could an old biplane made of wood and weighing only a few hundred kilograms withstand the ravages and ravages of 20 mm guns? You know, before the events of this day became known to the whole world, the caliber of weapons in air combat aircraft was 8 mm.

"Oh! I hit it, I hit it! See? Did you see that? Li Haoran pulled up his plane and let the plane fly towards the sky, turned his head sideways and asked his fellow navigator behind him.

The navigator's companion was facing the ground at this moment, and when he saw the Japanese plane that had been shattered, he replied, "Yes, you hit it...... Its wings were shattered, and they were no different from parts. (To be continued.) )
