Chapter 1171: Tailgating all the way

The F9 fighters of the Imperial Air Force, because of their high speed, are most often used in air combat The tactic of attacking from a high dive, and then quickly climbing and escaping from a high altitude. This tactic www.biquge.info a bit of a scoundrel, but it is very useful to avoid dog fights with enemy aircraft. In the face of enemy aircraft, the performance is completely inferior to one's own, which is undoubtedly the best tactic.

"Oh God! We have already lost thirteen bombers and torpedo machines. At this rate, I am afraid that the aircraft carriers that cannot get close to the Chinese will be completely lost. A dive bomber pilot said with a panicked expression. Although, they have long known that the Chinese Navy is not easy to mess with. However, it was only after the real fight that I realized that the Chinese Navy was so strong. When they hit the Chinese Navy, it was even more as if they had come to die. The courage that many people had so hard mustered to defend their homes and the country quickly disappeared when faced with the slaughter of carrier-based aircraft of the Chinese Navy. After all, in a life-and-death crisis, saving your own life is the most important thing.

"Hell! Colonel, the Chinese are too fast for me to aim at all. A U.S. Navy Buffalo fighter pilot shouted. He wanted to launch an attack on an F9 fighter jet of the Chinese Navy. However, when he was just aiming, the other party had already flown away. After the bullet was fired, it did not hit the target at all.

"Why are these Chinese so tough? If this continues, how can it be done? Colonel Grumman was also a little worried.

Although, he had been mentally prepared for a long time, knowing that this attack would be difficult. The Chinese Navy is not so easy to deal with. After discovering that the Chinese Navy is entering a very large fleet, with dozens of large and small aircraft carriers, it is even more frightened. Under such circumstances, what will the US Navy do to fight the Chinese Navy?

At this time, other air defense fighters also arrived on the battlefield one after another. This gives the Chinese Navy's fighter jets enough strength to deal with the U.S. Navy's carrier-based aircraft. Each of the 24 escort aircraft carriers took off a squad of fighters, making a total of 96 aircraft. Such a huge number is more than the total number of carrier-based aircraft dispatched by the US Navy.

"Colonel, the Chinese have too many air defense fighters, we are already surrounded by them, what should we do?" The pilot of a Buffalo fighter shouted in horror. However, his words came to an abrupt end before he could finish speaking. An F9 fighter was firing at him. A 30-mm cannon shell shattered the cockpit glass of this Buffalo fighter and hit the pilot inside. After the pilot inside was shot, he was killed on the spot, and the plane lost control and fell directly to the sea.

"Colonel, you were bitten, a Chinese plane, right behind you." The voice of a pilot came through the headphones.

"Hell!" Colonel Grumman yelled, quickly maneuvering the Buffalo fighter and began to roll sideways, trying to get rid of the F9 fighter behind him.

However, the F9 fighter is much more powerful than the Buffalo fighter. After Colonel Grumman rolled around a few times, he found that not only did he not throw off the F9 fighter, but on the contrary, he had made the distance between the two sides much closer.

"Da Da Da!" Two 12.7-mm aviation machine guns on the wings of the F9 fighters opened fire, and a dense stream of bullets went towards the Buffalo fighters piloted by Colonel Grumman. Colonel Grumman hurriedly dodged, and the bullet left several bullet holes in the wing, which did not cause fatal damage. However, this also scared Colonel Grumman into a cold sweat. If you get a little worse, you might be killed.

Even if he dodged the blow, Colonel Grumman's crisis was not resolved. The F9 fighter was still firmly behind him.

"Bastard, the performance of the Chinese fighters, is it so much better than ours? Those arms companies that only know how to make money and fool us with inferior fighter jets should be shot! Colonel Grumman yelled. But it is of no use to resolve his current crisis.

"Knock knock!" The F9 fighter jets following Colonel Grumman opened fire again, only this time it was the 30mm aviation gun in the nose. The 30-mm aviation gun was powerful, but the only flaw was that the bomb load was too small. If you let go of the fire, it is estimated that all the shells will be exhausted in less than a minute. Therefore, the pilots of carrier-based aircraft in the Imperial Navy were very economical when using 30 mm cannons. Only when it is determined that there is a good chance of winning, will the fire be fired.

Several 30-mm cannon shells flew towards the plane piloted by Colonel Grumman. Colonel Grumman hurriedly piloted the plane and began to dive, narrowly avoiding the shells. Otherwise, no matter how strong the Buffalo fighter is, it will eventually be beaten and disintegrated in the air.

"He's a veteran. But do you think you'll be able to escape? The Imperial pilot, who attacked Colonel Grumman, said with a sneer. He had to admit that this opponent's technique was good. Not even he's compared. However, the performance of the opposing planes was too bad. Compared with the F9 fighter of the Imperial Navy, there is a generation difference. Under such circumstances, Colonel Grumman could not have escaped.

The F9 fighter followed Colonel Grumman in a dive and took the opportunity to once again aim its nose at Colonel Grumman's plane.

"Knock knock!" The nose cannon opened fire again. Several shells flew towards Colonel Grumman's plane. This time, Colonel Grumman wasn't so lucky. Even though he managed to dodge most of the shells, one shell hit Colonel Grumman's plane. The place where it was hit was the wing, where several bullet holes had already been punched by bullets from aviation machine guns before. This time, it was hit by a more powerful 30-mm cannon shell, and it broke directly.

After the wing was broken, Colonel Grumman's plane suddenly lost its balance and plunged towards the sea. No matter how hard Colonel Grumman tried, he could not control the plane.

Eventually, before the plane crashed into the sea, he had to open the cockpit and parachute. Although, this is the control area of the Chinese Navy, even if you are lucky enough to get away with the parachute jump, you will fall into the hands of the Chinese Navy. But that's better than crashing into the sea with the plane and being thrown to your death.

"Your Excellency the Colonel was shot down." The pilots of the carrier-based aircraft of the US Navy shouted in horror. After Colonel Grumman was shot down, they lost their unified command!

In addition, a large number of Chinese Navy air defense fighters have been killed, and a massacre of the US Navy's carrier-based aircraft has been launched. Already most of the American planes have been shot down. At the time of departure, there were 72 carrier-based aircraft, and now there are less than twenty left. And they faced more than ninety air defense fighters of the Chinese Navy. In such a situation, is it possible for them to escape?

"Run! Those Chinese are simply devils. Some U.S. Navy carrier-based pilots shouted in horror.

The remaining SBD 'Dreadnought' dive bombers and TBD Destroyer torpedo attack planes threw away their bombs and torpedoes in advance and turned to flee. Throwing bombs and torpedoes at a distance of twenty or thirty kilometers from the fleet of the Chinese Navy can threaten the warships of the Chinese Navy? That would simply not be possible, let alone threaten the aircraft carriers that were guarded in the center of the fleet.

Dive bombers and torpedo attack aircraft, having dropped bombs and torpedoes, increased their speed a lot. These carrier-based pilots of the US Navy do not want to fight anymore, they only want to escape back to their aircraft carriers.

However, the air defense fighters of the Chinese Navy, apparently, did not want to miss this good opportunity to beat the water dogs. They went into pursuit. The maximum speed of the F9 fighters exceeded the fighters and bombers of the US Navy and torpedo planes so much that if they wanted to catch up with them, they would simply not be able to escape.

"Commander, it seems that the Americans are vulnerable. Dozens of carrier-based aircraft, which did not even break through the interception of our air defense fighters, let alone the warships that threatened us. Lieutenant General Lin Xiangjin's face was full of smiles.

"Well, the performance of our carrier-based aircraft is indeed much more advanced than that of the Americans. Plus the reason for the numbers, they are not our opponents. However, the artillerymen of those anti-aircraft guns are probably quite disappointed. Admiral Chen Houfu said.

Originally, the artillerymen of the anti-aircraft artillery positions of the fleet were also ready for battle one by one, ready to show their skills. However, most of the carrier-based aircraft of the Americans were directly killed by the air defense fighters of the Chinese Navy, and the rest were frightened and ran away directly, so that they also lost the opportunity to shoot, which naturally made them sigh.

Of course, this is a good thing for the fleet. It would be very dangerous if local carrier-based aircraft broke into the anti-aircraft artillery air defense network of the fleet. If you are not careful, you risk a disaster for the fleet. It would undoubtedly be best to be able to rely on air defense fighters to defeat the other side.

Admiral Chen Houfu's eyes suddenly rolled, and then he gave an order: "Give an order to the air defense fighters and ask them to stop chasing and killing the US carrier-based aircraft." In addition, reconnaissance aircraft were taken off to track the carrier-based aircraft of the Americans. ”

"Commander, you mean that we follow the carrier-based aircraft of the Americans all the way, and in this way, find the location of their aircraft carriers." Lin Xiangjin was stunned for a moment, and then he understood.

"Well, to get rid of the carrier-based aircraft of the Americans, it will be just a small victory. Destroying the aircraft carriers of the Americans, this is a big victory. Admiral Chen Houfu said.

The U.S. Navy has only six aircraft carriers, and four have been destroyed in the Oahu military port, leaving only two. Even if one more can be destroyed this time, it will make the advantage of the Imperial Navy even more obvious.

"Yes, Commander, I'll arrange it right away." Lieutenant General Lin nodded to Lieutenant General. (To be continued.) )
