Chapter 386: Junkers-88 Dive Bombardment

"Boom!" With the explosion of the bomb, a Swordfish attack plane was detonated in an instant, and the plane was still taxiing forward, and the flames had already covered the entire nose of the plane. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

A pilot, covered in fire, climbed out of the cockpit and rolled on the ground.

In addition to the successful take-off of the first plane, the next few did not take off smoothly, they were already enveloped by bombs!

Four JU-88 bombers, dashingly flew over the base of the undefended aviation, and the runway, the planes on the tarmac on one side, were blown into a sea of fire!

At this time, the Swordfish attack aircraft was still slowly climbing.

Jack's heart was extremely angry, he looked at the sea of fire below, and then looked at the German bombers in front of him, full of war.

Be sure to knock down the German bombers!

Jack listened to the roar of the engines in front of him and watched the propellers turn, while in the distance, the bombers quickly disappeared.

Damn it!

Jack simply can't catch up with those bombers!

His Swordfish attack plane, the fastest speed, is only more than 200 kilometers per hour, and the German Junkers-88 bomber, even with two tons of bombs, can fly to 500 kilometers per hour, and now, after throwing the bomb, the German bomber immediately accelerated to return, in front of the Swordfish attack plane, the other party is as fast as lightning.

Can't catch up, can't catch up!

So what's the use of taking off on your own?

Jack sat in the cabin, waving his fists weakly, and when he flew high, he could see more clearly, at this time, the entire base was suffering from the fierce blows of the Germans.

On the port, nearly ten large battleships are burning, the fire is about to surround the entire port, thick smoke is filled, and the rest of the battleships are firing into the sky intermittently, and those German bombers are still attacking!

Stop the bombers of the Germans!

Jack knew that the only thing he could do now was to fly to the surface and intercept the German bombers!

Although his plane was an attack aircraft, there was still a machine gun that the pilot could operate, and he wanted to use this machine gun to stop the German bombers!

Turning the nose, the Swordfish attack aircraft flew towards the sea.

USS Hood.

When the bomb exploded next to him, Tom finally found a gap in the battle and reloaded the bullets of his other two 12.7mm machine guns, so that his quadruple machine gun turrets could finally fire together!

At the same time, another sailor rushed to his side and served as a loader for him.

The two gasped and stared in amazement at the black-pressed bombers flying in the sky.

The Germans, who have been planning for a long time, hundreds of Junkers-88s, what a spectacular scene?

There was no time to hesitate at all, and with a speed of 500 km/h, the Junkers-88 almost did not give the British Navy any respite, and it was killed!

The Junkers-88 did not have a whistle, but this kind of twin-engine large bomber swooped down from the sky, and this kind of scene made people's blood spurt.

Swoop!

The German Air Force has a perverted pursuit of dive bombing, so much so that medium bombers must have dive bombing capabilities!

And now, a bomber that had just flown in on the Hood immediately locked onto the Hood, which was the most attractive for the Luftwaffe pilots.

In the cabin, the captain Hans-Jorg Bescher, with a hint of excitement in his heart, his keen eyes recognized the Hood at a glance, originally, he thought that the Hood was solved by the first batch of Junkers 290 bombers.

Bescher's target was originally a cruiser, but when he found out that the Hood still existed, he did not hesitate to change his target.

Kill the Hood!

Bescher, in this era, was not yet famous, and in later World War II records, he was an absolute bomber ace.

In January 1914, Beschel was born into a family of engineers. Drawn to flying machinery at an early age, he began seeking opportunities to learn to fly gliders by the age of 17.

After that, he joined the Luftwaffe Aviation School in January 35, however, he was depressed at the time, and he was assigned to the Heavy Bomber Aviation School in Tudov for observer training.

In March 1936, Bescher was promoted to second lieutenant, and he remained steadfast in his desire to become a pilot. After two years of hard work, he finally got his wish to wear the badge of an observer and pilot on his uniform, and was transferred to the KG27 3rd squadron as a pilot.

Just half a month ago, Bescher became the captain of this Junkers-88 bomber, and now, his first combat flight!

Bescher's ace road starts here!

Tough and handsome, with blond hair, Bescher is a mythical hero, but he is definitely not a vase that can only take pictures.

In later records, at the end of the war, Beschel was just 31 years old. His flying career witnessed almost the entire development of the aircraft of the German bombing forces.

Initially, he flew an open-top, twin-engine Dounell Do-23, which he called a "barge", and by the end of the war, he was already operating the world's first jet bomber, the Aradao Ar-234.

At the same time, in this world war, he completed a total of 658 combat missions, dropping more than six thousand tons of bombs.

And now, Bescher's first battle is about to make a big contribution!

USS Hood!

The Junkers-88 bomber dived towards the Hood, and at this time, the Hood had already begun to have anti-aircraft firepower!

Behind the Hood, a 4-inch 45x diameter QF HA MkXVI anti-aircraft gun began firing into the sky.

"Boom!" A 102-mm shell erupted from the muzzle, a burst of flames from the muzzle, and then the shell flew out.

"Boom!" The shell, which exploded almost not far from the Junkers-88 bomber, sent up a cloud of black smoke that made the Junkers-88 tremble.

Besher was unmoved, as a pilot of a dive bomber, when the dive began, he would not be afraid of any fire on the ground!

"Da Da Da!" On the quadruple machine gun tower, Jack was also firing with all his might, 12.7mm machine gun bullets, forming a terrible barrage of bullets, shooting at the bomber that was diving over.

Dive, keep diving! The Junkers-88 bomber, dashing almost vertically, dived towards the Hood below!

In fact, it seems dangerous, but the dive is very safe.

The area facing the opposing warship is the smallest, and at the same time, the dive brings rapidity, so that it is difficult for the opponent's anti-aircraft fire to react.

In this era, there is no artillery sighting radar, fire control computer, whether the anti-aircraft artillery can hit or not, it all depends on the experience of the anti-aircraft artillery commander, and a certain amount of advance is set, and in dive bombing, there is very little time left for the other side!

The most terrible 102-mm anti-aircraft gun fired only three shells, and the Junkers-88 bomber had already dived to an altitude of 300 meters, and then the bomb bay door in the belly of the aircraft was opened.

Drop the bomb!

PC1000RS, the bomb, which was specially designed to deal with heavy warships, flew away from the bomb bay of the Junkers-88, and with the advantage of the dive just now, it went straight towards the Hood and rushed up!
