Chapter 1282： Air defense operations (seeking monthly ticket)

"Boom! Boom!"

One after another, the bombers and attack planes were hit by shells falling from the sky, and the planes fell to the ground dragging billowing smoke.

Under the raid of 48 carrier-based BF-109 fighter jets of the German Navy, more than 20 bomber and attack aircraft of the island navy were shot down. The other carrier-based aircraft were also frightened and immediately dispersed.

"Baga! German fighters! Zero fighters divided into four squadrons to fight! The other fighters, cover the bombers and attack planes, and move on!" Colonel Yamanaka Ryutaro immediately ordered.

He knew that if he didn't want to entangle the fighter jets of the German Navy, they would pay more casualties. At that time, the loss will be even greater. Not to mention an attack on the capital ship of the German Navy.

The Zero fighter jets of the Japanese Navy immediately pursued the carrier-based BF-109 fighter jets of the German Navy, trying to shoot them down. However, their climb rate cannot be compared with the German Navy's BF-109 fighter jets, and they can only watch the German Navy's fighter jets fly to high altitudes.

"Da da da!"

Some Zero fighters opened fire, and the 7.7mm aviation machine guns on the nose were not very powerful. At most, they left some insignificant bullet holes on the fighters of the German Navy. But the advantage lies in sufficient ammunition and strong firepower.

"Sir, the German fighters are climbing too fast, we can't catch up." An island pilot said.

"Baga, be careful not to enter the high altitude, otherwise the engine will have problems."

Once the engine of the Zero fighter enters high altitude and the oxygen is thin, it may cause engine failure and cause the plane to crash.

The fighter pilots of the island navy also know this problem, so try to avoid entering high-altitude combat as much as possible. But at the same time, it also made them only able to watch the fighter jets of the German Navy enter the high altitude, unable to pursue them.

Fierce air battles ensued. The carrier-based BF-109 fighter jets of the German Navy, after getting rid of the pursuit of the Type Zero battle of the island navy, immediately killed those bombers and attack aircraft. Although they can easily shoot down these Zero fighters, instead of wasting time on these Zero fighters, it is better to hurry up and get rid of those bombers and attack planes. The heavy aviation bombs carried by the bombers and the heavy aviation torpedoes carried by the attack aircraft are the ones that can pose a fatal threat to one's own capital ship. Those Zero fighters, unless they are flying planes to collide, it is impossible to threaten those huge battleships at all.

Soon, the second batch of BF-109 fighter jets also arrived. 72 BF-109 fighter jets joined the battlefield, which immediately reversed the situation of air combat. Although the number of carrier-based aircraft fleets of the navy of the island country is huge. However, most of them are bombers and attack aircraft. Facing the BF-109 fighter jets of the German Navy, these clumsy bombers and attack planes are almost powerless to fight back.

"Baga! How could this be? How could the Germans send out so many fighter jets to intercept us?" Ryutaro Yamanaka's face had turned pale.

The German Navy dispatched more than a hundred BF-109 fighter jets, this is completely to catch them all! In this case, it is impossible for them to pose any threat to the capital ships of the German Navy.

"All the Zero fighters, try to entangle the German fighters! The blasters and attack planes, break through with all your strength. The German capital ship should be not far away. For the empire, let's fight to the death! " Commander Yamanaka Ryutaro ordered.

"Empire on board!" All the island country pilots shouted.

Although the enemy is very powerful, the animal nature in the bones of the pilots of these island countries has also been stimulated. Even if they know that they will die, they will attack without fear of death.

The Zero fighter jets of the island nation's navy launched an attack desperately, trying to hold back the BF-109 fighter jets of the German Navy, even if it crashed because of it. A Zero fighter was chasing a BF-109 fighter of the German Navy, and the body fell apart because it dived too fast. The body structure of the Zero fighter is very fragile. If it dives too fast, it may disintegrate. But even so, the pilots of those island countries still bravely launched an attack.

Those bombers and attack planes are trying their best to break through, trying to break through the blockade of the German Navy's BF-109 fighter jets and attack the German Navy's capital ships.

"Da da da! Boom boom boom!"

Aviation machine guns and machine guns fired crazily, and planes were shot down continuously. Some pilots couldn't even parachute, and were killed directly in the battle.

During the fierce air battle, the island nation's naval carrier-based aircraft suffered heavy losses. In comparison, although the German Navy's BF-109 fighter jets were also shot down. However, the number of losses is much smaller.

"Go to hell, **** the Germans!" An island pilot seized the opportunity and fired wildly at a BF-109 fighter jet.

The machine gun smashed the cockpit glass of the BF-109 fighter jet, and the pilot was killed on the spot. After the fighter plane lost control, it crashed into the sea.

"Haha! I killed a German plane!" the island pilot cheered.

But in the next second, the shells falling from the sky knocked out the tail of the Zero fighter, and the plane fell into the sea with thick smoke.

Although the fighter force of the German Navy caused great losses to the carrier-based aircraft force of the island navy. However, there are still quite a few crit and attack aircraft that got rid of the pursuit. These bombers and attack aircraft soon discovered the capital ship force of the German Navy and launched an attack.

The three "King-class" battleships of the German Navy fell last because of their slow speed. After discovering that the island country's carrier-based aircraft was attacking, the fleet immediately sounded the air defense alarm.

The three "King-class" battleships are all guarded in the center by cruisers and destroyers. Each 'King-class' was protected by a heavy cruiser, two light cruisers and four destroyers. Coupled with the battleship's own anti-aircraft firepower, such anti-aircraft firepower is undoubtedly very powerful.

"Attention all ships, the next test is for us. I hope everyone can hold on!" Lieutenant General Theodor Burchard said with a serious expression.

Fortunately, there are not many island country carrier-based aircraft that have truly broken through the blockade, and the threat to the fleet is not very great.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The 105mm anti-aircraft gun fired first. These large-caliber anti-aircraft guns have a long range and great power. Once hit, it is enough to easily tear apart an aircraft. Of course, the disadvantage is that the rate of fire is slow. Even if an automatic loader is used, the maximum rate of fire is only 25 rounds per minute. Of course, it is still much faster than the 127mm anti-aircraft guns of the Japanese navy.
