"Sister, there's one on the left, be careful."

"Got it. You have it behind you. ”

"yes, I see it!"

Although there were six Raiders chasing them behind them, the Twins were not worried at all. They hid in the vast gray clouds, using them as cover to play hide and seek with the Alliance's raiders.

The airspace over the Shawmilton Islands is densely cloudy, where warm currents from the north and cold currents from the south meet, forming large areas of cumulonimbus clouds. Coupled with the unusually active volcanoes, the clouds in the airspace of the Saumilton Islands behaved "dirty". Not only is the color gray and dark gray, but there is also a large amount of volcanic ash in the clouds - not to mention PM2.5, it is absolutely excessive to PM5.5 and PM6.5!

This directly led to poor visibility in the clouds, as well as the Beam Shot weapon in the Alliance's standard equipment that made it less useful.

The size and amount of dust in the air affects the propagation of light, and beam weapons can also attenuate the beam flow due to the dust in the air. Although the attenuation is not large, it is enough to make the threat much lower. The firing weapon of the flight trial machine configuration is a multi-barreled cannon, which is a live-fire weapon and is completely unaffected.

In fact, the main armament of all the assault fighters in the Aurora Territory is live-fire weapons. Compared with light-speed weapons, live-fire weapons have a series of disadvantages such as large weight, fast consumption, and low shooting accuracy, but their biggest advantage is that there are no requirements and restrictions on the power of the aether furnace of the body.

In order to obtain enough energy to maintain continuous firing ability and ensure sufficient power output, beam weapons often choose to directly connect them to the Aether Furnace. The advantage of this is that "there are no middlemen to make the difference", and all the energy of the beam weapon is directly provided by the ether furnace.

If it is on a floating ship, such a design is no problem at all. The most energy-intensive weapon of an afloat ship is the main gun in the bow, and there is usually one or more Aether furnaces dedicated to the energy supply of the beam main gun. The large and super-large aether furnaces on the floating ships have no characteristics, but they are powerful and powerful! Moreover, the hull of the floating ship is large, so if one ether furnace is not enough, another one will be installed, and if two are not enough, three or four will be installed! Anyway, as long as there is no problem with the funding, everything else is easy to say.

But this kind of local tyrant's approach will not work in attacking the machine soldiers. The Assault Fighter is less than twenty meters away, and it is difficult to have space for a second one after installing an Aether Furnace. Of course, if you really want to pretend, it's not impossible. However, the immediate problem caused by the installation of multiple Ether Furnaces is that fuel consumption has skyrocketed, and the Assault Machine's petite body does not have the possibility to store large amounts of fuel, resulting in shorter combat time.

Zhang Dongchen didn't think about beam weapons when he designed the Dawning Leader Assault Machine, he was not the kind of person who forcibly put live ammunition weapons on his own Assault Fighter in order to restore the setting. But after a series of tests, he had to abandon the beam weapon and choose live ammunition as the standard equipment of his assault machine.

Assault Mechs usually use a small Aether Furnace as their main power source, which is usually placed on the waist of the aircraft and protected by heavy armor. The Ether furnace not only needs to provide energy for the jet engine on its back, but also for every move of the body, the electronics in the cockpit, and the sensors and detectors throughout the body. If you add a beam weapon...... It can only be said that increasing the output of small ether furnaces has always been an important research topic.

With current technology, there is a trade-off between whether to prioritize improving the mobility of the airframe or increasing the power of beam weapons. Zhang Dongchen's most preferred choice is to ensure the movement of the body, that is, speed and maneuverability, so he has to abandon the beam weapon and choose a live-fire weapon in terms of armament. Because instead of opting for a beam weapon with a slightly inferior output, it is better to abandon the beam weapon and put all the power of the aether furnace on the mobility of the body. Live-fire weapons have many drawbacks, but they are actually not bad.

With the clouds and mist, combined with the superior mobility of the mech, the Twins quickly left behind the six Allied Raiders who were in hot pursuit.

The flight pedal only solves the problem of whether the assault fighter can fly or not. Wheel maneuverability, the flight pedal is far inferior to the assault aircraft, not to mention that at the moment, the opposing two flying assault aircraft with flight as their main function. Therefore, in order to pursue, the six airframes of the alliance had to be outflanked separately and chased after them in many ways. Unconsciously, their formation was scattered.

A relentless Confederate assaulter broke through the clouds. No sooner had the aircraft emerged from the clouds than a shrill siren sounded in the cockpit.

The pilot suddenly found that two light blue assault fighters were close at hand, and the multi-barreled cannons on the right hand of the two planes had firmly locked onto him. A second before breaking through the clouds, he thought he would see two planes fleeing in a hurry, but he didn't expect to be greeted by the merciless rain of bullets from the multi-barreled cannon!

The Alliance's assault fighters hurriedly erected the shield on the left arm of the airframe to protect the airframe, and the oval-shaped shield covered the half-crouched fuselage tightly.

The multi-barreled cannon is distinguished by a dense barrage, and the damage caused by a single shot is practically not high. Just hold on for a moment—the pilots of the Alliance made such a judgment in a flash of lightning.

To be exact, his judgment could not be miscalculated. If it was a land war, his response would not be optimal, but it would certainly be fine. The flight test aircraft used a 75-millimeter caliber multi-barrel cannon, and if the cannon of this caliber had to penetrate Colt's shield, it was estimated that the entire magazine would have to be emptied. Empty a whole magazine, and the wingman's support will already arrive!

However, the pilots of the Alliance overlooked that at the moment it was not on land, but in the air. The head-on rain of bullets was not directed at the airframe itself, but towards the flying pedals at the feet of the airframe. Just a staggered flash of the line of fire, the flight pedals began to spark.

Moments later, with the sound of an explosion, the flight pedal exploded into two asymmetrical sections that crashed into a sea of clouds. The assault crew on the flight pedal also began to free fall.

At the current altitude of more than 10,000 meters, there is almost no difference between falling on the sea and falling on the ground without losing the flight pedal - death is certain, only death is different.

The Alliance's assault planes immediately activated the jet engines on their backs to slow down the plane's fall. At the same time, the pilot also began to frantically start calling for help in the communication channel.

The pilot can be described as lucky. The two wingmen soon appeared next to his body, only to see the wingman each stretch out a hand to grab the falling body, and staggered to barely stop the fall.

At the same time, three wingmen of the other squad roared past and chased after the two flying assault planes that fled immediately after they succeeded.

The previous brief chase had made the pilots of the Alliance realize that the Dawning Leader's flying aircraft was much more agile than the Colt they were flying, even without the drag of the flying pedals. They were surprised by the disadvantage of their bodies, but they didn't pay much attention to it. After all, the Dawning Leader's Assault Fighters have always been known for their mobility, and even ordinary Raiders are much faster than the Alliance's general-purpose Colt Soldiers. At this moment, although the two flying airframes are fast, they have not yet reached the point of incredible. In addition, the Dawning Leader is also known for its weak armor and poor firepower.

Caution is a must against opponents who are fast, thin-skinned, and have little attacking power, but not cowering. What's more, now not only is the numerical superiority, but the mothership is also behind us, and support can be reached at any time.

Of course, fast speed also has the advantage of being fast. For example, chasing and chasing, one of the two bodies in front of him that fled in a hurry turned over and entered the clouds. After two turns, I was unexpectedly lost.

"Captain, I'm lost!"

"It's unlucky! Faster than a rabbit! ”

"Captain, listen to the voices of two women! And it's not that old! ”

"Hmph, you kid cut into the other party's channel again! How? Thinking again......"

"Hehe, the captain still understands me!"

"Count me in! I killed that chick for you last time before I even got it! ”

"Okay, okay, let you go first this time!"

The three allied pilots did not shy away from chatting about meat jokes in the communication channel.

"That's it! Pay attention, you're still fighting, be careful of being attacked! ”

"Hey, I know. We are all elites, how can we let two little girls ...... Yes! ”

Before he could finish speaking, the voices in the communication channel turned into screams.

The other two planes hurriedly turned around.

A light blue machine suddenly emerged from the thick clouds, and the multi-barreled cannon in the body's hand stretched forward, pointing directly at their companion like a spear. His companion's body didn't appear to be hurt, but smoke was already billowing from the flight pedals beneath his feet. The fire looms in the smoke, and the flight pedals are clearly ready to explode at any moment!

The two planes hurriedly raised the beam rifles in their hands to cover the shooting.

Due to the close proximity of the comrades to the enemy aircraft, the effect of the reinforcement shooting was not good. However, as if sensing the threat, the light blue body immediately sank, and once again rolled over and hid in the thick clouds

"Machine two! Old Buck! How are you? You okay! ”

The communication channel was filled with gruff gasps: "No, it's okay...... But the flyboard is over, I have to go back......"

"Phew! The two little girlies are so insidious, and they specialize in the flyboard! ”

"Machine Three, shut up!" There was a palpable heaviness in the captain's voice, "Prepare to retreat!" You protect the second machine. ”

"Captain! Just retreat? I'm going to be laughed at when I go back! ”

"A joke is a joke, it's better than losing your life! Don't you see it yet? Air combat is not good for us! The two of them are not easy to deal with......"

The sudden change occurred again, and a shrill alarm sounded in the cockpit.

A line of fire tore through the clouds like a whip and struck at the Colt Command with the mark. Colt Command hurriedly swirled around to avoid it, and the body raised the shield in his hand at the same time. This time, the pilot deliberately pressed down on the big shield in the hand of the airframe, giving priority to protecting the flight pedals under his feet.

A series of vibrations passed down the left arm of the airframe into the cockpit, causing the cockpit to shake slightly. Thanks to the damping system, the vibrations that come into the cockpit quickly disappear.

The Colt commanding pilot cursed in his heart while operating the airframe to fight back. The wingman on the side also fired back. However, the light beams that entered the clouds attenuated so much that they quickly dissipated.

"Withdraw! Move fast! It's not good for us here! ”

"Yes, Captain!"

This time, the pilot of the third machine was also silent. The environment on the scene can be said to be overwhelmingly unfavorable to them, and whoever does not run is a fool!

Although they have experienced a hundred battles, it is the first time for the pilots of the alliance to face the flying type of assault aircraft, and they do not have the slightest experience. In fact, none of the Assault Pilots in Teldaheim had any experience with flying Assault Crews.

What can a strong attack fighter do after it can fly, what kind of tactics can it achieve, what air combat skills do it have in battle, and what kind of tactics do it need to use against a flying strong attack machine......

These questions are an absolute blank in Terdaheim. After all, the flying Assault Fighters have always been lying in the laboratory and have never really appeared on the battlefield. Since it has never been on the battlefield, then no one has access to research, and no one cares.

"Whew, whew......" The pilot of the No. 2 plane gasped, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Captain! Don't you think it's weird? ”

"What?"

"We can't see anything here, there are too many clouds to obstruct vision, and we can't see anything! They, how did they find us? ”

A soldier who can fly a Raider is not a rough man. Even if you act like a rough man, it's usually a disguise. It is impossible for a guy who is not smart enough to become a Raider pilot, and excluding physical factors, not all knights and big knights can become Raider pilots!

Although the performance of personal physical desires is unsightly, the pilot of the third plane still grasps the point.

Assault Crews do not focus on detection capabilities, and with the exception of a few Scout aircraft, most of them do not have additional detection modules attached. Although the additional detection module is not large, the energy demand and consumption are not small at all. The output of the ether furnace is fixed, and the detection module takes away a part of the power, and the power that can be used by other equipment on the body is correspondingly reduced, and the performance of the body will also decrease.

"Damn it! It's still a scouting type! ”

The captain also immediately realized the pass, and was originally worried about whether he would be ridiculed by his colleagues when he returned. Now he doesn't have the time to laugh at this question, but he has to worry about his own life first!

"Withdraw! Evacuate! The two little snymphs deliberately lured us into the clouds! ”

Since they were deliberately luring the Alliance's assault units into the clouds, would the Twins stop there? Of course it's impossible!

"Sister! Let's ...... together Rush! ”

Yuya shouted and launched a counterattack.
