The first to intercept the Japanese bomber formation were 48 Veyron jet fighters, which were the fastest and most combat-ready, so they acted as the vanguard. When the Japanese bomber formation was discovered, their pilots all closed the throttle, but because the plane was lowering altitude, with the help of gravity, the speed of the plane did not drop much, and it remained steady at about 800 kilometers, and now they were going to dive down from a high place and attack the Japanese bomber group with their Vulcan cannon.

In World War II, only the Japanese Army and Navy Airlines preferred the three-plane formation because of its strong ability to resist sneak attacks. Therefore, the strategy of the Chinese Air Force used to be to adopt two mobile four-plane formations plus one two-plane formation to attack the three three-plane formations of the Japanese army. This four-plane formation, known as the "mobile four-plane" formation, was invented by Wallamundes in the Spanish Civil War and was used by the air forces of many countries until the twenty-first century.

The mobile four-plane formation maneuver is a mixture of several two-plane formations, and the pilots in the formation in the pre-attack phase are to gather together as best they can, and after the battle is over, they are to withdraw from the enemy's airspace at the same time. Each two-plane formation can be separated according to the air situation, but the two planes of the two-plane formation should be kept together, and the detachments should provide support to each other through two-way attacks or loose two-plane tactics. When one two-plane formation attacks an enemy formation, the other two-plane formation can provide defensive upper cover.

But now because it's a jet fighter, there's no need to worry about that at all, just fly the Weilong jet fighter into the Japanese bomber group, like a tiger into a flock of sheep. Because not yet a single Japanese fighter was able to pose a threat to the Weilong jets.

The pilots of the Japanese 96 land attack were still dreaming of turning Beiping into a city of death, and this time they carried a large number of poison gas bombs, which are a type of ammunition with great lethality, although it is banned internationally.

Captain Murakitta, the pilot of a small group of pilots, was fantasizing about those scenes. He smirked.

These 9 96 land raiders are all members of the village's squad, and through the radio, Akagi shouted to his men: "Sons, dozens of kilometers ahead is the Beiping City of the Zhina people, everyone prepare to attack and use your bombs to turn this city into hell!" ”

Just as the pilots of Murakashita's squad were preparing to descend altitude. When entering an attack readiness state. The wingmen located behind the formation were all attacked suddenly, and the six wingmen of the three formations did not know that from the sky above the side and rear, the three Chinese Air Force jet fighters quietly approached from the side and rear, and with the help of the cover of the clouds, launched a fierce attack on the six 96 land attacks behind the formation!

At this time, the three jet fighters were like swift falcons, rushing towards the unaware Japanese 96 land attack fighters. Underneath the nose of these jet fighters, Vulcan cannons rattle and turn, propelled by electricity. Immediately after that, more than a dozen 20-mm shells flew at three times the speed of sound almost at the same time towards the back of the butts of the 96 land attackers!

At a short distance of more than 2,000 meters, the flight time of these shells only took a little more than 2 seconds, and they fiercely drilled into the fragile skin of the 96 land attack, and then a violent explosion occurred, and in an instant, the fire and smoke of the explosion appeared on the fuselage of the six Japanese 96 land attacks, and then disintegrated in the air, and countless fragments swirled and pounced on the earth. Although there was a machine gun tower in the northern part of these 96 land attacks, the machine gunners operated 7.7 mm machine guns to fire at the incoming fighters. But that was clearly in vain, too far away. Machine gun bullets simply don't hit.

The power of the Vulcan cannon is not covered, coupled with the high speed of the Weilong jet fighter, it is simply an invincible existence in the air, not to mention the hunting of Japan's 96 land attack bombers, even if the later Zero fighters come, they are also sent to death.

The generational gap in air combat weapons. The impact on the outcome of the air battle is self-evident! Compared with the original version of the Vulcan in the United States, these Vulcan cannons in another time and space have a corresponding modification of the firing mechanism, reducing the maximum rate of fire to 4000 rounds per minute. However, the size of the gun was not reduced accordingly, so that the length-to-diameter ratio of the barrel became much larger, and the 20mm shells of the 7-barreled Vulcan cannon on the Weilong jet fighter were much larger. Muzzle velocity reaches more than 1000 m/s. Ballistic performance will be better than excellent. Although the accuracy certainly can't reach the level of the American Vulcan, it is still quite good. Now there is only one type of fighter that can use the Vulcan cannon, and that is the Veyron jet fighter, because the Vulcan cannon is too large, and there are also gunboat planes that can be used, and of course there is no problem with bombers to use it.

Due to the jet engine, the Weilong jet fighter is also not equipped with a radar, the nose part is basically empty, which can hold a lot of things, and now a 7-barreled Vulcan cannon is installed, which has no problem at all in terms of weight. And because the plane is large enough and structurally strong, it can fully withstand its recoil.

Originally, Xiao Weiguo's most familiar cannon was the Russian-made double-barreled 23mm Stega gun. Before the crossing, many Chinese fighter jets used this aerial gun. The biggest advantage of this gun is its low weight and high rate of fire. The weight of the entire gun did not exceed 50 kg, but it was capable of reaching an ultra-high rate of fire of 3000 rounds / min. It's just that the disadvantages of this aircraft gun are as obvious as the advantages: the trajectory is curved, and the accuracy is extremely bad. For modern fighters, there are very few opportunities to use cannons, so for aircraft designers, a bad accuracy is a little bad, as long as it can save weight, it is a good gun.

However, in an era like the current era when aircraft artillery is the main weapon, the shortcomings of shells flying all over the sky are really unacceptable. Therefore, the Vulcan cannon on the Weilong fighter has become the most powerful air combat weapon in the world. The ultra-high rate of fire, coupled with the long range, and the powerful destructive power, are destined to dominate the air in this era when machine guns are the main air combat weapons.

The Japanese bomber group was completely chaotic, and it was suddenly hit by the opponent's high-speed fighters, and the Japanese escort fighters could not play a role, because they were mud bodhisattvas crossing the river, and it was difficult to protect themselves! The performance of the Type 95 fighter is so poor that not to mention fighting with jet fighters, even if it is fighting with the Chinese Air Force's beginners, it is also completely at a disadvantage.

Now the Japanese 96 land attackers can only quickly and indiscriminately drop bombs, and then desperately escape.

But will they be able to escape the jet fighters? The answer is no. So this air battle is completely a one-sided aerial massacre! Of the nearly 400 Japanese fighters, only about 20 escaped by chance. (To be continued.) )
