Chapter 1156

"Mr. Nakajima, the Soviet fighter planes in the Far East are all outdated i16, and the P40 that the United States has assisted them is less and less. It seems that the rumor about that is true." In the Far East, at a field airport on the Japanese front line, a Japanese fighter pilot said to his wingman triumphantly.

The recent operation of Japanese Army Aviation in the Far East has been very smooth, because most of the US fighter planes assisting the Soviet Union have been consumed in the war, and the new US arms assistance does not seem to have reached the Far East of the Soviet Union at all.

Judging from this, the rumor that general trakov sought independence in the Far East and lost American aid seems to be true. This is undoubtedly a very good news to celebrate for Ishihara, who has been fighting extremely hard in the Far East, and the hundreds of thousands of Kwantung Army troops under his command.

Without the heavy industrial areas in the west, the Soviet troops in the Far East would not get any decent supplement at all. If the Americans turn a blind eye to the Far East regime, which is no longer an ally, would not the new Far East region, which has lost its supplies, soon fall into the hands of the great Japanese Empire?

Thinking of this, Ishihara and his subordinates are very excited. He has mobilized all the bombers and fighters that can be deployed from the Chinese Theater of war, and intends to open up a new situation in the Far East. Once it takes control of the Far East before other forces, it can at least win a very large buffer area for the rear of the Empire.

"Mr. Ozawa, I heard that you are the real trump card from the Pacific battlefield. This time, you will be drawn out from the tight battlefield. It seems that the victory of our great Japanese Empire in the Far East is just around the corner." The Japanese air force pilot named Nakajima is also one of the best pilots in the air force of the Kwantung Army. He has achieved amazing results in 11 Soviet fighter planes in the Far East, and his rank is higher than Ozawa, who was demoted because of the air battle in Wuhan.

In yesterday's battle, the two men achieved the record of shooting down one Soviet fighter and injuring one. It is a pity for each other. Then they became good friends, had a drink with each other, and got in touch with each other.

Compared with the fighting in the Pacific battlefield, the quality of Soviet fighter pilots in the Far East is obviously inferior to that of American pilots who are more courageous in the Vietnam War. Therefore, the experience of fighting in the Far East makes Ozawa, who has experienced the real war, feel relaxed. If the Soviet Union's fighter pilots were all at this level, maybe 40 ki43s or 30 zeros would dominate the Far East.

"As long as we two partners, to be honest, in the Pacific battlefield, there may be someone in the United States who can threaten us, but in the Far East battlefield, we are invincible." While putting on his parachute, Ozawa confidently said to Nakajima, who was also well dressed: "we can shoot down 100 Soviet planes, so that they will never dare to fight with us again!"

"Your majesty will see us! The people of the great Japanese Empire will remember us both! The twin stars in the Far East air force, the invincible Ozawa and Nakajima, ha ha ha Nakajima also laughed excitedly. Ozawa is a long-term player to his taste. Together, they will not be a drag on each other, which is particularly important in air combat.

At this time, a ground crew member came into the room, saluted the two pilots and reminded them, "sir! The bombers have taken off. The headquarters has informed us that the formation can now take off! "

Nakajima nodded, then waved that he knew. The other party quickly came to attention again, bent down and used the honorific: "Hi, I'm sorry." After that, he retired respectfully, because the two pilots he came to inform were the best two "falling kings" of the Japanese army in the Far East, that is, the best pilots in the air force of the Japanese Kwantung Army.

"Take off!" Although Nakajima is a wingman, his rank is higher than Ozawa's after all. Although both of them have a good record in the war, they can be regarded as equal, but in the Japanese army, after all, they will be superior or inferior, so the orders on the ground are still given by Nakajima, and Ozawa generally will not express any opinions.

So the two men went out to the airport runway one after the other, and the army ki43 fighters were parked. These planes have been modernized according to the experience of the war. The original 7.7mm machine gun, which was like a toy water gun, has been refitted by the Japanese army. At this time, contradictions between the Japanese army and navy have arisen for no reason, which has added trouble to the Japanese army.

The army, which was supposed to share the same 20 mm caliber machine gun with the Zero fighter, resolutely disagreed with the use of naval equipment and bit its teeth to develop new aviation weapons. In the end, the army imitated and produced a 12.7mm heavy machine gun. After some efforts, it finally successfully shared its own air weapon caliber with the US enemy

However, to be fair, this kind of disorderly imitation has finally given Japan a good weapon, at least giving the Japanese army's ki43 fighter a higher combat effectiveness. In the face of the i16 fighter and the P40 fighter of the United States, we can get some advantage.

"Ground control tower, this is Ozawa. Request to take off!" After taking his own talker and testing the radio, Ozawa has already aligned the nose of the fighter plane with its propeller and engine running smoothly to the runway. He takes off easily according to the talker. It's just unthinkable in the war-torn Pacific Ocean.

To hell with that idiot Yamamoto, to hell with the Navy! In the end, you will find that the most important army to save the great Japanese Empire is US army pilots! Thinking about this in his mind, Ozawa pulled up his plane and skillfully folded up the landing gear under his plane. Behind him was another ki43 fighter piloted by Nakajima. One after the other, the two planes joined the fighter formation and began to level off at an altitude of more than 8500 meters. They joined the escort formation. With the bombers flying at an altitude of 8000 meters, they flew towards the Far East Communist Youth City area. The practical ceiling of Japanese Army Air Force bombers, that is, Tunlong bombers, is 9300 meters, while the highest altitude of Japanese Army Air Force fighter ki43 fighter is about 10000 meters, which should have been good data at the beginning of the war, but now it seems that these data are very general and even slightly outdated. The fastest flight altitude of ki43 fighter is about 6000 meters. When the bomber flies at high altitude, it is unable to give full play to the strength of the fighter itself. This is another subtle reason why the Japanese fighter lost to the Chinese air force. When they fight at an altitude of more than 8000 meters, the performance of the Japanese fighter can not be displayed. However, Ozawa's and Nakajima's aircraft are special models piloted by Ace Pilots. The Japanese have improved the performance of some engines, so that this kind of aircraft can adapt to some extent at an altitude of about 8000 meters. However, this kind of improvement is nothing more than a slight improvement in some performance, which is a temporary cure. Looking at such a huge aircraft force around them, both of them were filled with pride. 40 Tunlong bombers, under the protection of 25 ki43 and ki27 fighters, rushed to their target. Such a scale of air raid has been quite spectacular in the Asian battlefield. After all, the strength of both sides participating in the war is not comparable to that of the European theater. With white clouds and air currents, Ozawa's mind is still full of the battle that ruined him in Wuhan, China. The scars left by those damned Chinese pilots with German airplanes have not completely recovered up to now. Even though he shot down an American plane in the Pacific and wounded a Soviet P40 fighter yesterday, he still couldn't make him happy“ Mr. Nakajima, carefully observe the airspace on the right side. Yesterday, the Soviet plane came close from that side. Let the bombers keep alert. We have entered the airspace over the Soviet controlled area. " Ozawa used a pen to record a time in the book, and then pressed the short-distance radio, said to Nakajima, who followed him“ I'm looking in that direction. I don't find the Soviet air force. Everything is normal. " Nakajima looked at his right direction, then pressed the phone and said to Ozawa, "we are still using a backward fighter like ki27. It really makes people denounce the factories in the rear." Those ki27 fighters flying at the foot of Nakajima at an altitude of 8000 meters have completely lagged behind this era. However, due to the lack of materials, Japan still dare not eliminate these fairly good performance aircraft. When they are brought to the Far East, they have achieved a lot in terms of the Soviet i16 fighters with similar performance but a large number. However, things that are out of date are still out of date after all. Although the fully enclosed cockpit is reluctantly installed, this kind of aircraft can not cope with the most advanced P40 engine enhanced aircraft of the United States, nor challenge the me109c fighter exported by Germany. These ki27 fighters are all used to make up the numbers, belonging to the kind of things used to maintain the number of air forces in the theater and show the sense of existence of our own air force《 For those who want to read the latest chapters of this book, check it out, or visit it on your mobile phone
