Chapter 850: The Fall of the Peak Era
readx; The real jet fighter in the minds of the Air Force is the F12 jet fighter that has completed the test flight in 1943, the F12 jet fighter as a single-engine swept wing jet fighter developed by the Air Force, from the beginning of the positioning is to replace the propeller aircraft as the Air Force air control fighter use, after several years of research and development, the fuselage design has been completed, and now the last remaining level is the engine, Although its 1,700 kilograms of thrust is far from meeting the thrust needs of the F12 fighter, the Air Force has used this prototype engine to carry out various test flights of the F12 aircraft, striving to determine the fuselage design of the F12 aircraft and find some potential defects for improvement before the engine with a thrust of up to 2,000 kilograms is produced.

In any case, the F10 fighter is the first generation of jet fighters equipped in the Air Force, and its surname can not be compared with the F12 in the test flight, but it is not weak, and it is more than enough to be used as an interceptor fighter.
Now those F10 fighters on the opposite side are coming to intercept the "local group", and the "local group" will naturally fly out of the fighters to meet it, so that the bomber group can continue to advance.
Four against twelve, it's a one-to-three air battle!
Lin Yan looked at the fighter jet who was getting closer and closer with a sneer on his face!
Closer, closer, the fighter groups on both sides approached quickly, looking at the opposite plane that said, 'This plane was put into its own crosshairs, Lin Yan pressed the firing button without hesitation with the lieutenant, and in an instant, the 20 mm cannon equipped on the F10 fighter shot a series of shells, and the drag light bullets in the shells drew several obvious traces in the air, and finally converged in front, and the power of the 20 mm machine gun shells was greater than the 12.7 mm machine gun bullets equipped on ordinary propeller fighters.
Lin Yan clearly saw that the cannonball hit the opponent's wing, and directly exploded the opponent's wing in the air!
"This is the first one!" Lin Yan used a turn to cross the wreckage of the fighter plane, and then under the cover of the wingman, he put the crosshair of the cannon on another fighter.
Yasuichi Sato looked at the Chinese Air Force fighter jet that was speeding from three o'clock, and with a resolute look, he slammed the longitudinal pole, and then the fighter he was piloting was rapidly diving to the right.
"Jet fighters!" Yasuichi Sato snorted coldly in his heart!
With rich combat experience, he fought fiercely against the British and American air forces in the skies over the Philippines and Australia for several years, and his combat experience was not comparable to that of the pilots of the Chinese Air Force. Limited by the low level of technology in the aviation industry, although the fighter he flew could still occupy an advantage in the first year, but the British and American planes he faced never had an advantage, but he still survived many air battles to this day, and achieved the record of shooting down more than 20 enemy planes.
As long as he can enter the state of suddenly circling right and diving to the underside of the opposite F10 fighter, then he can calmly change course and enter the rear of this F10 fighter to carry out tail biting attacks.
But to his great surprise, as soon as he entered the underside of the F10 fighter, he found another F10 fighter directly opposite, and then he clearly saw the cannon shells fired by the other party flying towards him.
The F10 fighter is not a perfect jet fighter, and low-speed combat is even worse, but in order to change this defect and prevent the opponent from entering his belly to attack when facing the enemy head-on, the wingman is generally located under the long plane when taking a frontal combat stance. If the enemy plane in front of it climbs, relying on the climb and high speed of the F10 fighter, the long plane can still do tracking and shooting, and once the enemy plane dives and tries to go around the rear of the long plane from below, then it will be the wingman's shells that greet him.
Yasuichi Sato was horrified, hurriedly circled, and then accelerated down to dive and escaped, only to be able to get rid of the shooting of the F10 fighter wingman on the opposite side, years of battlefield intuition saved him, but before he was ready to climb up and turn back to attack again, his vision was to see a larger group of planes flying towards them in the distance.
"Yaga, how can these people have so many planes!" Sato Yasuichi did not know that their tracks had been discovered and reported by the Chinese Navy more than 20 minutes ago, and the intercepted fighters had already been in the sky one after another, and in front of them was an interception network composed of more than 100 fighters, of which more than 70 F10 fighters were the absolute main force.
In order to wipe out the incoming bomber group over the open sea, the Fifth Air Force did not hesitate to assume the posture of a lion fighting a rabbit and dispatched more than 100 fighters to intercept the bomber group, which had only 10 planes. As a result, the number of bombers in Ben was not even as large as the intercepted fighters of the Chinese Air Force.
"Two!" Although Lieutenant Lin Yanyong was surprised that the fighter just now was able to escape from the double plane between himself and the wingman, he still aimed at the other fighter plane, and then cooperated with the wingman, and the pilot of the opposite fighter was obviously not as skilled as Yasuchi Sato.
He said: "In the Pacific War, which lasted for more than two years, not only was the elite of the naval aviation exhausted, but the army aviation was no better. The naval aviation had to fight with the US naval aviation, and their army aviation also had to engage in a tragic air battle with the British and American army aviation in Australia, and a large number of elite pilots trained before the war died one after another, and the pilot training of Ben could not meet this rapid pilot attrition at all, and in the later stage of the war, the quality of Ben's pilots had dropped to an outrageous level.
In the skies over Australia, the U.S. Air Force even created a squad of four P51 fighters to eliminate 12 fighters, and not a single fighter of its own was damaged. This is not to say how strong the quality of the pilots of the US Air Force is, but only to say, 'How poor the quality of the pilots is.'"
As a matter of fact, the quality of the pilots of the US Air Force was not very good, and in the early stage of the war, they were called "the pilots were defeated, but they were stable enough to keep a large number of pilots replenished at a relatively average level during the war, which is not good but not bad."
The situation is similar in the Chinese Air Force and Naval Aviation, the Chinese Navy and Air Force have expanded several times over the years, and the Navy and Air Force before the war combined were only nearly 10,000 aircraft, but now, the number of combat aircraft has reached a terrifying more than 40,000, and the training aircraft is equally huge, all kinds of training aircraft add up to 10,000, in addition to all kinds of fighters retired from the front line, there are also a large number of specially designed and manufactured training aircraft. And from the huge number of training aircraft, it can be seen how much effort China has put into training pilots.
The United States is almost the same, the training of pilots also requires a lot of resources, and the supply of such resources has a great relationship with national strength, without a large number of training planes can not train qualified fighter pilots, and with training planes, they have to consume a lot of aviation gasoline, people say that they themselves do not even have enough aviation gasoline for combat, and there is a surplus for training pilots.
War, fighting is resources!
Although the pilots of the Chinese Air Force cannot be compared with the pilots of other countries who have been fighting for several years in terms of combat experience, the pilots of the Chinese Air Force are superior in that they have maintained enough training time, and their level is not very high, but there is no problem in maintaining a normal level.
If the size of everyone's aircraft is comparable, the quality of the pilots may reflect a very large gap, but when the number of combat aircraft on both sides is not proportional, as long as the quality of the pilots is not too different, then it will still occupy a certain advantage, and war experience can also be accumulated, at the beginning, the quality of the pilots of the Chinese Air Force may only be a normal level of training, but as the war progresses, they will also grow up rapidly.
At the moment, this is a battle between a mediocre Chinese pilot against a small group of elite pilots and a large group of rookie pilots.
While elite pilots like Yasuchi Sato were able to evade attacks by Chinese planes and look for opportunities to shoot down F10 fighters of the Chinese Air Force, many more pilots were shot down one after another without the strength and luck to be shot down.
After Yasuichi Sato shot down an F10 fighter again, he was desperate to find that his wingman had been shot down, and looking around the surrounding airspace, only himself and a few friendly fighters were left, and around him were more than 20 Chinese F10 fighters rushing towards them.
Yasuchi Sato sighed in his heart: "Are you going to be loyal to the emperor today?" ”
"I'm not reconciled!" Yasuichi Sato was very obviously aware that these Chinese pilots on the other side were a lot inferior to him in terms of technology, but their jet fighters could be more advanced, and more importantly, they were more numerous!
"Even if you die, shoot down the last enemy plane!" With a fierce look, Sato Ann gritted his teeth and dived towards an F10 fighter below, at this time he no longer cared about the two F10 fighters behind him who were biting his tail, he wanted to kill the last enemy even if he died.
In the end, the fanaticism peculiar to this soldier erupted from Yasuchi Sato, who was cultivated with the spirit of bushido since childhood, representing an era, a peak era of this soldier!
Several bullets were fired from Anichi Sato's plane, and then the F10 fighter in front of him staggered forward despite being wounded in many places, and when Yasuichi Sato ran out of the last bullet, he showed a look of despair, why didn't he shoot down the enemy plane? Why not?
By this time, his plane had been shot in several places, the fuel tank had been hit and on fire, and flames had already erupted from the left flank, dragging billowing smoke in the air.
His fighter plane was no longer able to fight, no matter how much he wanted to keep fighting!
Suddenly, his body shook, his fighter plane was hit by a 20-mm shell, and after the explosion, a fragment of shrapnel or the airplane body had already pierced a large hole in his chest, and blood was gushing out of his body.
Yasuichi Sato couldn't breathe anymore, his eyes no longer had the fierce light he had before, and what he saw was not the staggering F10 fighter in front of him, he seemed to see the mountains and fields in his hometown, as if he saw his mother at home looking at him with expectant eyes, and his waving mother seemed to be shouting his name.
"Anyi, go home!" His mother's call made Sato Yasuichi's eyes begin to drift, and he didn't know when tears had fallen from the corners of his eyes, were they crying because of the defeat? Or is it because of the mother's call?
Gradually, his mother's figure gradually blurred, and Yasuichi Sato tried all his strength to open his eyes wide, he wanted to see his mother for the last time and listen to her last words, but no matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't open his eyes!
He finally closed his eyes, and at that moment, darkness came out!
Today, Yasuchi Sato and "The peak era of this soldier has passed away!"
Lin Yan looked at the plane in front of him that was falling towards the sea with billowing smoke, and snorted coldly in his heart: "Vulnerable!" ”
