"I don't care what method you use, the navy and air force must keep the German fleet under our 24-hour surveillance, you can use whatever means you want, this opportunity is rare, Count Grafspee cannot make such a mistake again!" Xu Jie instructed.

"Can even our Aeolus long-range reconnaissance/bomber unit be used? Isn't it a little too early? General Yan Guangbin, commander-in-chief of the Air Force in the Indian Ocean, said with some hesitation.

"Really, the Germans don't have jets? We are just a little ahead in terms of engines, maybe the German jet fighters and bombers are flying at a test site in Europe, and it is even possible to equip the troops. ”

Xu Jie doesn't care about leaks, it's no secret that all countries are engaged in jet aircraft, the Germans moved earlier, the British engine is better, Huaxia is better designed, plus the British engine is used, and it goes a little faster. Now it's time for these new-age guys to come out and breathe!

At a large base in the Andaman Islands, a large hangar carved out of the mountains opened its doors, and with the help of a high-powered tractor, a plane unlike any other was pulled out of the hangar. The sleeve-length fuselage was flanked by two wings with a 45-degree sweep. On the wings, there are two pods with R2800 engines. In terms of appearance, this aircraft is a little larger than the Yunlong heavy bomber in Huaxia.

In the lower part of the fuselage there is another huge arc-shaped radar fairing, and in the direction of the nose of the aircraft there is a hemispherical cabin with antennas. And at the tail of the aircraft, there is also an extended hanging compartment. Its role is to receive all kinds of radar and radio communications, in general. This strange plane, which was called Fengshen by outsiders, was obviously an ocean-going reconnaissance plane that integrated reconnaissance and electronic warfare.

If this were the case, it would not have caused the Chinese Air Force personnel stationed in the Andaman Islands to arrive in an accident. After all, as an outpost of China in the Indian Ocean region, they have seen a lot of such electronic warfare aircraft or early warning aircraft, and they have long been no stranger. The most important thing is that this large aircraft, known as the Fengshen, also has two huge rectangular air intakes arranged on both sides of the fuselage, and under the tail, there are two huge nozzles!

"This can't be a rocket, is it?" A soldier in charge of security asked curiously as he watched the huge plane slowly being pulled onto the take-off runway.

"It shouldn't be, how can the rocket be installed on the plane, and the working time of the rocket engine is only tens of seconds. How is it possible as a power for an aircraft? One of the soldiers next to him seemed to be very knowledgeable.

"To be honest, I still feel like our landlines are a bit out of place." When the preparation of Fengshen 1 was completed, the crew boarded the plane through the gangway, and Cui Yong pouted and said to the captain.

"I'll go, what's the matter, an airplane with two 2,500 hp piston propeller engines plus two 1,400 kN jet engines. You can't use 4 piston propeller engines or 4 jet engines at the same time? This is how Cui Yong felt when he first saw this aircraft.

To say that Cui Yong is definitely a bull! The people of the Huaxia Air Force Test Flight Corps, he has flown almost all the aircraft designed and produced after the 30s in Huaxia! In his ten-year test flight career, he has flown no less than 30 types of aircraft of various types, 7 times he narrowly escaped death, and 3 times he made great achievements! Even flew the first generation of Chinese jets last year! In the past six months, 3 jets have been dropped in the test flight. As a result, this product didn't even fall off! I have to say that technology and luck are bursting existence! However, it wasn't until four months ago that he came into contact with this propeller, axial-jet hybrid plane, and he was completely out of his mind. It's not that you can't fly, but it's too inconsistent with his three views!

But although it is a bit shocking, but after a few hands. Cui Yong has to admit that this is a good plane! At the same time, it has the good take-off and landing performance, stability and long range of propeller aircraft, and also has the high-speed performance of jet aircraft. It's a good compromise between the two!

Cui Yong has flown 4 types of jets. Having seen the Chinese Thunderbirds, the Whirlwind Jet Bomber, the British's Meteor and the Americans' XP80 prototypes, he still knows a lot about the performance of jets. Speed, that's not to say, in the most suitable airspace, the Huaxia Thunderbird jet can easily fly at a speed of 920 kilometers per hour! What does this mean? This means that the Thunderbird is almost 200 kilometers per hour faster than the current fastest Shicha Falcon and Skua 3 aircraft in China! When the engine is turned on the afterburner, the strong push back feeling is good, and the acceleration makes him excited!

But at the same time, the climb rate of jet aircraft is relatively poor, and the Thunderbird can be said to be the leader of modern Entente jet fighters, but even such an aircraft, its climb performance is not as good as the latest Skua and Stone Tea Falcon, the reason is simple, the engine thrust-to-weight ratio is not enough, and the weight of the jet is too large. In addition, another disadvantage of jet aircraft is that the fuel consumption is too large, in the past, 900L fuel was enough for a propeller aircraft to perform an escort mission, but this fuel is only enough for the jet to fly for more than an hour! And the stability and operability are also slightly worse.

As for the evaluation of the jet aircraft, Cui Yong believes that if it can improve stability and engine life as a fighter, it will be a very good short-range fighter, although the climb is not so good, but relying on unparalleled speed suppression and strong firepower, this is definitely a more difficult role to deal with than the stone tea falcon and skuas. But fuel consumption is an unsolvable problem.

Now, the Fengshen ocean-going reconnaissance plane he piloted solves this problem by mixing and matching two engines, two R2800s are responsible for normal cruising flight, and two jet engines are used to escape the pursuit of the other party when necessary. At an altitude of 7,000 meters, the maximum speed of the Aeolian aircraft is about 820 kilometers per hour, and at this altitude, as long as it can be detected before the opponent fires, it will definitely be able to dodge! You know, the German FW190D aircraft did not have a limited dive speed of 800 km/h! That is, as long as the Aeolus plane flies level at maximum speed. The Germans couldn't catch up anyway!

Today will be the first time that the Fengshen ocean-going reconnaissance aircraft has carried out a reconnaissance mission at an overseas base. With the roar of two R2800 engines, the huge plane glides quickly on the runway. And finally near the end of the runway, with a slight lift of the nose, it flew into the air!

According to the instructions of the ground guide, Cui Yong quickly found the general direction of the German fleet, this time they not only had to reconnoiter the size and location of the fleet, but also had to risk challenging the German air defense network and fighter interception system, and provide data and intelligence support for Su Mo's upcoming attack, otherwise, Huaxia would not have dispatched such a treasure as Fengshen!

"The Germans seem to have discovered us." The co-pilot on the side looked at the constantly screaming radar warning indicator and said in some panic.

"It's normal, I didn't notice that we were abnormal. We flew so high and didn't turn on electronic jamming, so the other side's radar could see it as long as it wasn't broken. Besides, aren't we here just for the Germans to find out? Cui Yong's nonchalant tone showed that his current spirit was excellent! It's finally time to abuse vegetables!

That's right, whether it's the German FW190A in the past, or the current FW190D, and the FW190E that may appear in the future, as long as it's still a propeller aircraft. In his eyes, there is nothing remarkable, my brother once drove the wind god to brush the Air Force's Stone Tea Falcon and the Navy's Skua Gull, and let a bunch of fighter ace pilots drop their hats when they get off the plane, what can the Germans do?

"Our guests are here!" From the fuselage compartment at the rear of the cockpit came the words of the radar operator. On the circular radar screen. Several jumping optoelectronic began to quickly approach the Fengshen who was flying high in the air.

"Are we going to raise the altitude now?" The co-pilot asked.

"No, let's lower the altitude now! It is said that the best flight altitude for the German newcomer aircraft is around 6000 meters, and we are waiting for them at 6500 meters. See what new tricks you can play! Random Cui Yong pressed the joystick slightly, and the huge plane began to slide. Fly at around 500 kilometers per hour, waiting for the other party to come to your door!

"Brothers. It looks like we've run into a stupid bird today! "A squad of 4 aircraft, guided by the ship's radar, quickly approached the target to be hunted today.

"This plane is so big, it seems to be bigger than our HE177 Gryphon strategic bomber!" From his current position, he could already see the big guy flying slowly in front of him, and according to his visual inspection, Charman could clearly feel the size of the other party.

"Okay, everyone, everyone is ready to attack, Charman and I are responsible for the first round of attacks, and the second squad is responsible for the second attack, the other side may have strong self-defense firepower, everyone be careful. We've challenged the Americans' box formation, don't be killed by this lone guy at the end, it will be a shame! The captain's half-serious, half-joking words caused the group to burst into laughter.

Then the two FW190D fighters began to accelerate, and the two planes quickly increased from 550 kilometers per hour before the engagement to about 620 kilometers, and the distance between the two sides began to gradually close, and in the middle of the scope, the opponent's figure began to gradually become clear.

"Huh?! What's going on? Just when Charman estimated that he would be able to get close to about 500 meters in another 4 minutes, he suddenly noticed that the other party's figure seemed to be frozen in the scope! No matter how the engines of the FW190D aircraft roared, the distance between the two sides seemed to remain the same!

"Damn it! I'm already traveling at 650 kilometers per hour! Could it be that the big guy in front of you can fly so fast? Charman didn't believe his eyes!

"This is no ordinary plane, look at the air flowing from the rear of its tail!" The captain said with a grim face. "Damn, it's a jet! I've seen this stuff at the Air Force headquarters test site! Huaxia has actually put it into practical use? ”

"Turn on the afterburner, we have to deal with this thing with all our might!" With the captain's order, the two FW190Ds involved in the first round of attacks decisively turned on the water injection afterburner, and with the mixture of water and methanol being injected into the engine cylinder, JUMO213 the engine sent a slight shock, but soon returned to normal. The speed of the FW190D fighter was quickly increased to a rapid speed! The hand indicating the speed of flight has been turned to the extreme! Straight to the red 700km mark!

"Cut, trivial, we don't even have to open the afterburner, easily shake it off!" At the same time as the Germans accelerated, the huge Aeolus plane also rushed forward, continuing to maintain a distance not far from the Germans, the two sides were in a stalemate at a speed of nearly 700 kilometers, and the two German planes behind could not catch up with the prey of the kilometer no matter how they accelerated. The scene was very funny.

"Let the second squad get up, they have a height advantage, and with the speed of the dive, they may be able to catch up." With the exhaustion of the mixed liquid, the power of the engine began to gradually decrease, and after 4 minutes of flying at maximum power, the Germans decisively could not bear it anymore and began to be slowly thrown away. And at this time, two FW190D fighters that swooped down from a high altitude roared to take the former's place and continue to attack!

At this time, the two nozzles in the rear of the Fengshen shook violently, two flames erupted from the rear, and the flight speed of the Fengshen high-speed reconnaissance aircraft with the afterburner device turned on increased by a notch again! The speed of the flight watch reached around 760 km/h! And such a high speed was beyond the reach of the German planes with a dive speed of 740 kilometers, and after the Germans were forced to flatten, they could only see this shameless intruder fleeing!

"I was so naïve, I always thought that Deutsche Technology was the best in the world, and this is absolutely an illusion." The current Charman is not as excited and proud as he was when he first received the FW190D fighter. As a pilot, he began to doubt the outcome of the war, the other side is superior in economy, technology, population, and numbers, how can such a war be won?

Subsequently, while sending the collected intelligence to the headquarters, Fengshen 1 continued to tease the German prevention and control system, especially the performance of the FW190D was almost clear. According to Cui Yong, he can now even draw a flight envelope diagram of the FW190D! Of course, the error may be larger, and his evaluation of the new toy of the Germans is that this is a decent aircraft, which is much stronger than the FW190A, but compared with the new aircraft of Huaxia, it is still slightly inferior. As long as you don't fight at low altitudes, the threat is not great!
