"Fire!" When the two sides approached a distance of 600 meters, the shooters from both sides who had been pressed to the limit by the huge pressure pulled the trigger one after another! Thousands of various machine guns rushed to spray a deadly rain of bullets. At that moment, the eyes of all the people were filled with fires of various colors. Tracer bombs, high-explosive bombs, and armor-piercing bombs were flying in the air, and the British interceptors, like medieval knights in heavy equipment, launched their final sprint against the arrow rain on the opposite side. The Germans on the opposite side are like the Roman phalanx in the Middle Ages, using strict discipline. The tight formation and the hedgehog-like machine gun tried their best to stop the opposite sprint!
"When attacking a complete box formation, the survival rate of aircraft on the attack front is generally less than 50%!" This is the conclusion drawn by the British in previous engagements. The vanguard at the front almost ran into the German fire net with a mortal mentality, and the two sides fought with blood in the first round!
The attacking front line composed of 8 DH11 interceptors was immediately buried by the violent self-defense firepower of the German bomber group. The flame torrent of countless bullets wrapped in the target, and even blocked the realization of the British bombers behind. In the roar, people can also hear the collision of bullets and metal, the breaking of metal and wood, and the sound of explosions. In just a few seconds, 6 of the fighters were torn to pieces by the torrent of bullets! Even the British colleagues who are more than 200 meters behind can't see how their previous companions are finished!
"It was almost a blink of an eye. Before I closed my eyes, the red No. 12 was still flying in the rain. Then I blinked. When I opened my eyes again, there was no red No. 12 figure in the air. Only among the bullets like migratory locusts, some planks and wreckage were falling down! The other two bombers beside them survived in pain for a few more seconds. One of the planes was cut into two pieces in the middle, and the other plane All of its wings were smashed, and it fell from the sky like a wooden stick.” A British pilot who survived by chance described the scene like this.
However, the sacrifice in front was worth it. After the striker group attracted the Germans' first round of interception firepower, the interceptors from behind rushed forward decisively! A distance of 200 meters is just a momentary thing for an aircraft with a speed of more than 150 kilometers per hour. At a distance of meters, the British crazy shooting cost the Luftwaffe!
Bell pulled the trigger on the handle, and 4 legal 13.2MM machine guns roared frantically. The entire plane was shaking with the roar of the machine guns. The bullets fired from the dense machine gun layout formed an oval death area, and accompanied by The movement of the aircraft continued to expand forward, and then the arc of death was severely chopped on a K6 bomber, and the bullets fired at more than twice the speed of sound collided with the side of the wide body!
Then came a burst of horrible sounds after metal collisions, countless fires blazed and jumped on the opponent's fuselage, and after the long shot ended, Bell was surprised to find that the target had not been destroyed! You know, in that period of time, Bell shot at least 500 bullets! But at a distance of 300 meters! With such a huge target, Bell estimates that his hit rate exceeds 10%! After a while, black light flashed in the sun, and the pitted body that was hit reminded Bell why his attack did not work. Because the previous bullets hit a large piece of steel!
Under the storm-like blow just now, this steel plate was also penetrated many times. However, the side of the body is still better protected. You must know that it is impossible for the British large-caliber machine guns to be equipped with special ammunition such as armor-piercing bullets or armor-piercing incendiary bombs. Most of them are ordinary bullets. Although the attack just now caused a lot of damage, the K6 bomber can still keep up with the queue.
"Damn, I really want to know how much of the German bomber's load can be used to hold bombs." Bell saw that a single blow was unsuccessful and chose to leave. The firepower of the German counterattack cut off half of the wing of his landline. It seems that today's battle is over.
Although the fuselage and engine have good armor protection, the German bomber group began to suffer serious casualties under the concentrated fire of the British, especially after the three interceptor squadrons were fully deployed, the British partially mastered the firepower Advantage!
A K6 bomber was attacked by at least 3 DH11 interceptors at the same time, and 12 large-caliber machine guns poured fatal bullets from three directions. The entire bomber was almost wrapped in bullets. The first thing that was finished was the front cockpit of the aircraft. A series of bullets flew up from diagonally below, directly reaching the bottom of the nose to a honeycomb, and then this flame sickle cut diagonally along the body. Under the action of incendiary bombs and high-explosive bombs a small half of the nose was shattered. And the upper part of the other two bombers do it! With the vibration of the machine gun, hundreds of bullets broke the left wing of the bomber into several segments! The left wing, which was nearly 10 meters long, was finally cut off by more than 8 meters! Accompanied by a violent shaking, this bomber finally headed to the ground!
And not far away, another 5 DH11 interceptors took turns to attack a K8 bomber. This giant dragon in the sky used more than 2-digit machine guns to madly resist the attacking group. Just a minute ago, the dragon used 4 large-caliber machine guns on the lower part of the cockpit and the back of the aircraft to successfully cut a DH11 interceptor twice and wound the other one. But soon, when the 5 interceptors came up, the dragon was overwhelmed!
The first attack was the two DH11 interceptors passing by from above. The barrage shot by the eight machine guns marked huge scars on the back of the body. The machine gun tower on the top of the fuselage was hit directly, and more than 200 bullets whizzed past, directly smashing the shooter and the machine gun to pieces. The incendiary bomb also set fire on the top of the plane. One of the aircraft that completed the attack swiped past the nose, and the pilot even made a provocative gesture while flying by. However, after a few seconds, this guy knew what it means to be happy and sad. The machine guns and the two machine guns in the cockpit stared at this arrogant guy at the same time. The three machine guns swept over this guy who dared to provoke his dignity like the claws of a dragon. In just a few seconds, this DH11 The driver was shot in the seat.
