"Pray!"

Captain Thad said with a grim face. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"I ...... I don't want to die yet! ”

Second Lieutenant Lund trembled with fear.

But the speed of the battleship on which they sat was sinking faster and faster.

Especially when they were deeply frightened, 8 more German self-guided torpedoes again added to the situation, and they fired at their battleships at great speed.

With another loud explosion, Ensign Lund's battleship was cut in two, and the flames sank to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish.

And when this fierce skirmish naval battle was gradually coming to an end, another air battle was taking place at the same time 10,000 meters away from their rear.

A WING OF BRITISH MOSQUITO NF.XVII NIGHT FIGHTERS ARMED WITH IMKX OR SCR720 RADARS AND 4.20MM CANNONS.

There is also a Mosquito MK.33 Navy carrier-based version with foldable wings, four-bladed propellers, a ship hook, a 4.20mm cannon, torpedoes, and an American ASH radar.

and a wing of the Mosquito NF.XV, a high-altitude fighter with an extended wingspan and a pressurized cockpit with a reduced fuselage structure; AIMKVIII radar; Replacing the 4.7.7mm cannon with a 20mm machine gun, specially created to counter the German Ju-86P high-altitude attackers.

Finally, there was a wing of the Mosquito FB.VI., which entered service in February 1943, and increased the wing strength on the basis of NF.II., in addition to carrying 1,000 pounds of bombs in the fuselage bomb bay, and 2 x 500 pound bombs under the wings, for a total bomb load of 2,000 pounds. If you are not carrying bombs, you can carry 50/100 gallon fuel tanks, mines, depth bombs, 8?60-pound rockets, etc.

In this way, four wings were organized into the "Mosquito" fighter-bombers of two aviation divisions, which at this moment were relying on the large-caliber guns on board of their aircraft; and bombs, as well as high speed at this time launched an attack on the German fighters.

The German fighter group that engaged in fierce air battles with the British Mosquito fighter-bomber group was the Heinkel 129B-2 night fighter piloted by the NJG1 night fighter wing, and the JG1 and JG2 aircraft units that arrived later to support.

The German wings were armed with the Heinkel 129B-2 family, and their standard armament was still two MG151/2020mm guns and two MG177.92mm machine guns mounted on the nose.

At the same time, they also carry MK10330mm guns under the belly, replacing the MK10130mm guns on the original B-1. Compared to the MK101, the MK103 has a higher rate of fire, faster muzzle velocity, and a better trajectory curve.

"Listen to me, everybody! We are facing a new group of British Mosquito fighter-bombers tonight, so be careful to fight! ”

The captains of the three NJG night fighter wings, large and small, were constantly giving orders to their pilots.

"Turn left, azimuth 080, fly at maximum power, prepare for engagement!"

"The target is in the direction of 2:35, 3500 meters."

"Target 8 o'clock, 3800 meters, 4200 meters ......"

"The No. 3 machine quickly climbed to 4,500 meters at high speed to seize the advantageous altitude and shoot!"

"Unit 67, maximum power, azimuth 090 east, there are enemy aircraft, fire!"

"Azimuth 030, 4100 meters altitude, ready for engagement!"

"Attention Unit 7! The target is heading west at 11 o'clock and is ready to flee, and the pursuit is fast and high! ”

"Roger, understood!"

"A Mosquito NF.XVII night fighter is firing a cannon at you, dodge!"

"Unit 22, fly north, quick! Slow down by 6 knots and form a battle queue with other teammates to fight back! ”

"Watch out for the 18th, two Mosquito FB.VI. appear at your 3 o'clock! On the 19th, go to the rescue! ”

"Oh no, Captain, my wing was hit!"

"Hurry up 600 meters, the Brit is going to shoot your fuel tank, the 26th!"

"Oh no, my wingman has been shot down by the British!"

"Damn the British! How did they suddenly send so many Mosquito fighter-bomber groups out to fight us. ”

"Damn! Our Heinkel 129B-2 night fighters are a little weaker than them! ”

"You all stop me, our reinforcements are almost there!"

"We've done everything we can, if only we had more advanced fighters! Damn British! Damn mosquito pose! ”

"Ranhild! Don't die! Bastard British! I'm fighting with you! ”

Subsequently, the various contact teams of the German army constantly resounded the orders of the captains of various sizes to command the battle, as well as the response voices of the crews.

"Well done everyone! That's how to shoot the Germans! We're going to wipe out all these Germans tonight! Not a single one to stay! ”

"That's right! Avenge all the dead pilots of our British Empire and the common people! ”

"Rush! Kill! Now is the world of our British Empire fighter-bombers, and the era of German aviation is coming to an end! Hahaha! ”

"Be careful! Peter! To your left, at 4 o'clock, there are two German Heinkel 129s! ”

"See, let's see how Korver and I shoot them down!"

"Hey, hey! It's as easy as killing pigs to shoot these German fighters now! ”

"Of course! Our British Imperial Air Force will surely become the biggest nightmare of the Germans! Isn't their land and airspace now bombed by our love for nine comes, and if they love to bomb, they love to bomb? ”

"Hahaha! Feed! Look! Today is the fourth German night fighter I shot down! You wait for me, the fifth one will be shot down soon! ”

At this time, in the British flying team, all the pilots and captains were in a high mood, and they were excitedly shouting and shouting using the on-board radio.

"Huh! What kind of fleet did that come from? ”

However, just as they were talking about the most elated and noisy, suddenly a mosquito NF.XV pilot spotted a large group of glittering planes suddenly appeared in the sky in front of them at 6 o'clock in front of them, at an altitude of 4,000 meters, and they were approaching them at high speed like twinkling stars.

"Everyone, be careful! It's the Germans' reinforcements coming! Get ready to attack! ”

Hearing this, a British captain immediately alertly shouted on his airborne radio.

"What's that? I don't think I've ever seen it before! ”

The other captain, however, was puzzled, staring at the German reinforcements approaching them more and more rapidly, and became nervous.

"It's the German He219 high-altitude night fighter, and it's V5 and V6! Be careful! ”

But soon another British captain was frightened and shouted loudly.

"No, they are not V5 and V6 types, they are new He219 high-altitude night fighters that we have not seen!"

It's just that a British wing captain quickly retorted nervously.

"What's that model? Chief Miller? ”

One of the captains immediately asked.

"Didn't I say I hadn't seen it? It is the new He219 high-altitude night fighter that we don't know about! All the flying teams give me 100,000 points of caution at once! ”

The Miller Wing Captain roared loudly.

While the British flying officers were talking in panic, the German He219 high-altitude night fighter group had already arrived in front of them.

These He219 high-altitude night fighter groups are all V19s, that is, the first He219 equipped with the "oblique music" system.

The system consisted of two MK10830 mm cannons (100 rounds each) arranged diagonally upwards at a 65-degree angle, designed to shoot at the weaker belliels of British bombers from below, in conjunction with the "Richstein SN-2" airborne radar.

Later histories record that during the period from the end of 1943 to 1945, these He219 high-altitude night fighters became a nightmare for British bomber groups, including the British Mosquito fighter-bomber group.

And these planes were all Chen Yanlong's JG300 secretly given to the German all-day Hou troops two weeks in advance; and the night fighter divisions NJG5, NJG6, and NJG7 are equipped.

After a very short period of training, they were sent to fight the Battle of Pantelleria.

With the advent of the He219 high-altitude night fighter group, a large-scale tragic air battle began.

And it was the prelude to a one-sided aerial massacre, and the most tragic thing was that at this urgent moment, the B-17 bomber group of the US army also sent a wing to support the British army.

It's just that these U.S. pilots never dreamed that this time they ran into the German army's He219 high-altitude night fighter group.

In this regard, they did not yet know about the largest air battle in the Mediterranean Sea and on the entire Western Front after the Battle of Africa and Tunisia; It's about to erupt, and they're going to be wiped out here.
