"Dodge, escape to medium and low altitudes, and escape the opponent's attack with the help of terrain cover!" Xu Huaiyuan shouted loudly in the channel, but at this juncture, two BF109s that cooperated with each other had already injured one of the Tiger Cat volleys with machine guns and machine guns, and the left wing of the latter was knocked off and was falling to the ground staggeringly, and a few minutes later, two umbrella flowers bloomed in the air. And the BF109, which was pursuing in the rear, did not fire at the parachute either, but re-climbed and left. This is not to say that the Germans are more reasonable, but because this is fighting in the airspace of the other side, if you shoot someone else's parachute pilot today, tomorrow they can also beat your parachute pilot, people always have to leave a way back for themselves, right?

If the BF110 in the air superiority configuration can still play two tricks with the Spitfire or the Shicha Falcon, then the Tiger Cat, which is specially used for interception operations, has no way to take the BF109, and the heavy armament and armor make this aircraft clumsy. And the opponent still cut in from the back hemisphere. So there seems to be no other way for these tiger cats than to escape.

After successfully shooting down the first interceptor, the German pilots who participated in the attack were quite excited, and in their opinion, this kind of fish belly is not something that can be encountered every day. If you don't play well at the moment, it's more when. One BF109 fighter jet after another bit each other as if they had taken a stimulant. EVEN AT THE EXPENSE OF BEING BROUGHT INTO THE AIR, THEY CONSTANTLY USED THE MG151 CANNON LOCATED IN THE CENTRAL SHAFT OF THE PROPELLER AND THE TWO 13MM CANNONS LOCATED IN THE WING TO SHOOT AT THE TARGET. Fire snakes flew around the tiger cat, biting each other hard from time to time!

With a bang, Xu Huaiyuan felt the fuselage shake slightly. He knew it was what it felt like to be hit by machine guns. This should be at least the third hit. At first, he was still apprehensive. But then he found out that the other party's attack was just that. Overall, the firepower of the BF109 is still slightly thin. THE FIREPOWER OF JUST 1 MG151 AND 2 13MM MACHINE GUNS IS REALLY LIMITED TO THIS TIGER CAT, WHICH CAN BE CALLED A SOLID IRON KING, EVEN THE MG151'S 20MM SHELL CAN ONLY LEAVE A SMALL HOLE IN THE ARMOR. This was partly due to the limited armor-piercing capacity of thin-shell shells, and partly because most of the shells loaded by the Germans were high-explosive rather than armor-piercing. IN THE CASE OF A BAD ANGLE, IT IS SOMEWHAT DIFFICULT TO PENETRATE THE TARGET, AND THE TIGER CAT HAS ARMOR PROTECTION UP TO 10MM THICK BOTH IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND IN THE CAB. Such a high level of protection is a huge pressure on the firepower of the BF109. It can even be said that the first destroyed Tiger Cat was also a point back, and the wing damage and improper operation of the guide finally crashed. The BF109 fighters involved in the attack did not cause much damage in rounds, and only 3 of the 16 aircraft were destroyed. When the opponent grabbed the first move, this loss is already very small. The loss of the other 1 aircraft was forced due to a mechanical failure.

The Germans would not let the Tiger Cats attack the bombers unscrupulously, and the Spitfire and Stone Tea Falcon, which were responsible for escorting the interceptors, naturally did not allow the BF109 fighters to attack the Tiger Cats with ease. After the arrival of the excavated BF109 fighter. A large number of fire-breathing and stone tea falcons also began to intercept. These three aircraft can be described as chess opponents will meet talents. Needless to say, the BF109 and the Spitfire are two of the best fighters in the early stage of World War II in history. The Cascha Falcon was born from the historical P51 fighter, and it stands to reason that the aerodynamic layout is better than both, but the engine used by the Casa Falcon at this time could not even reach 1200 horsepower. The BF109 relies on its smaller body and weight and uses a liquid-cooled engine in the early 1000 hp. But for the much larger Cascha Falcon, the engine of this class is really small. In addition, when it was designed, it was heavier than the historical P51B, and the power-to-weight ratio was a little ugly. As a result, the excellent aerodynamic layout was delayed by the overweight and coffee table engine, and the performance of the Cascha Falcon in actual combat was not better than that of the Spitfire and BF109, especially the gap in climb rate was relatively large.

As a result, the early BF109 and Spitfire and the semi-inferior P51 fighter were very happy to fight in the air. At the initial stage of the engagement. Neither side took much advantage, but as time went on, the BF109 fighters were soon forced to retreat due to the surge in fuel consumption due to the fierce air battle, and the Selia Falcon and Spitfire, which occupied the convenience of the home field, began to gradually gain the upper hand.

"Over time. BF109 fighters began to gradually leave the battlefield, and the opposing bombers also abandoned their plans to attack the airfield because of the survival of the Haidongqing interceptor unit. When we thought that the battle was going to end in our victory, the safari of the excellent German pilots taught us another lesson! "Post-war. A Huaxia pilot wrote in the report.

The BF109 fighters of the Germans were also divided into two parts, in addition to acting collectively in a four-plane formation. There is also a small group of top pilots who have the right to choose the right opportunity to cut into the battlefield on their own. Most of the BF109 fighters swooped from high altitude to medium and low altitude to join the battle with the Allied air forces. But there are still a small number of planes that rely on the cover of clouds and the sun to find opportunities high in the sky, if the tiger cat group is a flock of cicadas. Then BF109, which launched the attack first, was the praying mantis that followed. And the few top German pilots who had been looking for an opportunity at this time were the yellow finches who killed the Spitfire and the Stone Tea Falcon.

James piloted a Spitfire in an attempt to bite a BF109 fighter that was evading in a low-altitude direction. The opponent had already consumed a lot of energy in the beginning of the grappling, and at this time he was as clumsy as a goose. James just needs to steady, slowly approach his opponent, and then use a penalty shot to knock him down. But at this moment, a BF109 fighter jet suddenly burst out of the clouds on the left, and it seemed that it wanted to come to the rescue of its comrades. James was not too worried about the plane that suddenly emerged from the flanks, because he knew that if he approached the opponent from the side, the direct relative displacement of the two sides would be relatively large, and the shooting would also be affected by the large horizontal displacement. In general, the British and Chinese were accustomed to attacking from a small angle from the front or from behind. The accuracy of this attack from the side is really poor. Not even to mention shooting, it is more difficult to bite the opponent, and it requires strong anticipation. This tactic is rarely used by the old birds.

However, James who was soon vigilant found that the pilot who came out of the side was not an ordinary old bird, and the other party judged very accurately, and the BF109 fighter that approached from the side began to slowly approach him, at this time he had two choices, one was to give up the target in front of him and get rid of the opponent immediately. Another way is to rush to solve the previous goal and then deal with the others. Faced with the temptation in front of him and the crisis behind him, James began to suffer from gains and losses. And hesitation in war is clearly fatal. The BF109 behind him pressed the nose of the plane slightly, and began to swoop and accelerate closer, which was the precursor of the opponent's attack! And James deliberately circled to the right, trying to dodge the opponent's attack!

"It's early!" When the Spitfire used its horizontal mobility advantage and began to circle, the BF109 behind him did not follow it, because the distance between the two sides was still far away at this time, and the BF109's circling could not keep up with the Spitfire, and even if it did, it would be difficult to include the other party in the attack range. The 109 releveled its state, got out of its lurk, and then waited for the Spitfire to end its circle and the kinetic energy loss was huge, and then attacked! James misjudged the power shì, and what awaited him was to be put into the scope by the other party and easily killed.

"Sometimes slow reaction is not necessarily a good thing." Looking at the downed Spitfire, Garland smiled slightly. This is his second result of the day. He was confident that if he hadn't had to leave enough fuel to return home after the voyage was too long, he might have become the first Luftwaffe ace in a single day, shooting down more than 5 planes in a day! But today, he and his teammates can only take it as they see it.

In the final stages of today's air battles, quite a few pilots of the Ishellia Falcon and Spitfire fighters were shot down without knowing where the attack was coming from. All they could see were tongues of fire coming from behind. Then his own plane was shot and caught fire. This kind of safari tactic, which gave the pilots great freedom, was something that the Chinese and Allied pilots had never encountered. According to the understanding of the Huaxia pilots, the act of abandoning bombers and simply attacking the opponent's fighters in escort operations can simply be regarded as a crime.

The final air battle at Karaj ended with the withdrawal of the German air group. The opposing side did not even inflict a single large-scale strike on the airbase in Karaty. The JU88 bombers of the three squadrons eventually lost 16 aircraft, which once again set a new record for the proportion of German losses in a single air raid, and 10 BF110s and 8 BF109s were shot down. On the other hand, the losses of the Tiger Cat interceptors on the side of Huaxia and the Entente were 4, 6 were lost in the Spitfire, and 8 were lost in the Shicha Falcon. Judging only by the exchange ratio of fighters, Huaxia is only slightly superior. Of course, if you count the general account, this attack of the Luftwaffe can be described as a big loss.

On the whole, however, there were not many such successful cases of the Chinese and Allied air forces on the first day of operations, and the Luftwaffe's carefully designed attack routes before the war caused many interceptor groups to pounce. The fight near the border was somewhat advantageous because the BF109 fighter had no fuel consumption concerns, and the British Spitfire and the Chinese Shicha Falcon were better. And the P40 fighters of the Americans fell behind. Huaxia retained this important air base, but suffered some losses elsewhere.
