Alexander Mironenko was escorting his own IL-4 bomber with a two winged IL-15 fighter.

If you want to attack the enemy's aircraft carrier formation, in addition to bombers, you must have escorting fighters, otherwise the loss will be considerable. Originally, the Navy aviation had some yi-16 similar monoplane, but unfortunately they were destroyed in the first wave of German bombing.

Now, more than 20 IL-4 and five IL-15 are all the remaining airmen of the Black Sea fleet. They are flying towards the German fleet in a fearless spirit. Everyone knows that it is difficult to come back, but they are fearless.

Unfortunately, they were found by German patrol fighters when they were still far away from the enemy fleet!

The two FW 190 attacked fiercely. After discovering the German fighter, the escorting iraq-15 fighter immediately welcomed it.

Although some old flying birds like biplane very much and think that monoplane is not safe, the development of aviation technology has confirmed that monoplane is completely correct. Now biplane has fallen behind. There is almost no chance of winning in the struggle with German fighters, but they have no choice and have to fight!

Alexander pushed the accelerator fully, and the ash-62 nine cylinder star air-cooled engine in front exploded 700 horsepower, driving the fighter to accelerate.

Although they are all iraq-15, different batches are different, and the Soviet Union is constantly improving. For example, the current batch is the latest iraq-153, which has made great development.

Unfortunately, due to its congenital shortcomings, it has no chance to be in front of the German fighter.

Of course, ancruz also saw those Soviet fighters coming to fight, but he was not interested in fighting with these fighters. The biplane couldn't fly at a speed of 500 kilometers per hour. What can he compare with his own side?

In the face of those Soviet fighters who came to meet them, ancruz and Christie didn't pay attention to them at all. Pulling the operating lever, the two fw190 aircraft began to climb rapidly. The engine in front burst out 1800 horsepower surging thrust and pulled the fighter upward. There was only admiration on the opposite side.

Yes, the advantage of biplane is the ability to hover horizontally at most. If you chase the other party horizontally, you will be dizzy and may be ambushed by the other party.

But the climb of biplane is extremely weak. Originally, the resistance of biplane is large, and their aircraft engines are too poor. Now this ratio is immediately displayed.

Soviet pilots could only look up and watch German fighters climb. Soon, they had to look up. German fighters had flown over their heads!

"Protect our bombers!" Cried Alexander, shaking his wings to signal other planes to follow him.

Yes, their planes are not equipped with radios. Fortunately, they are used to communicating like this.

Just as they were about to turn around and return, the two fw190 had made a natural and unrestrained turn in the air, and then dived down towards the bombers!

The layout of the IL-4 bomber is very similar to that of the SB-2. The pilot is in front and below, the pilot is above, and there is a rear turret and a gunner sitting behind.

At this time, the machine gunners behind them were quite nervous. They almost looked up at the German fighter jumping out of the sky.

Their angle is very tricky, just outside their own firepower!

Although there is a rear firing machine gun, the angle is limited. For example, it cannot perfectly cover the rear hemisphere, and it is even more impossible right above. Do you want the shooter to squat inside?

Now, German fighters are diving almost 90 degrees from an angle they can't reach.

The overload brought by the dive made ancruz's body flutter. He gently pushed the operating lever and put the movable ring of his sight around a bomber. In the field of vision, the target was getting bigger and bigger. Then he pulled the trigger.

"Bang bang." In the shaft gun of the propeller in front of fw190, a flame erupted, and three 20mm shells hit the fuselage of the bomber accurately.

The first one hit the middle of the fuselage, and the wooden fuselage instantly exploded a big hole, exposing the skeleton of the steel pipe. Then, the explosion of the second one tore the skeleton. In the fire, the hit of the third shell made it two sections, burning and falling down.

win victory the moment one raises one 's standard!

For fighters, the axle gun is the easiest to hit. In fact, the 20mm axle gun is not the largest, but it has full ammunition reserves and is powerful enough to hit bombers.

A ground attack would require a 40mm boforth machine gun.

Ancruz hit accurately, but his friend Christie made a slight deviation. At the last moment, the other party made an emergency turn and the bullet was empty.

The two fw190 swooped down from the air, passed through each other's aircraft group and pulled up from below. At this time, the iraq-15 fighter found the opportunity. They hurriedly fired a shuttle of machine gun bullets at the German fighter, but saw the other party climb up again without loss. They could only stare below.

The action of these two fw190 is quite simple, that is, climb up, dive down to attack, and then climb again. When diving down for the second time, Christie shot down an IL-4

The Soviet bomber group finally stopped maintaining a dense formation. They immediately dispersed, hoping to reduce the possibility of attack. It was much safer to disperse than to gather together.

At this time, on the rear of the aircraft carrier Hitler, the carrier plane was also taking off quickly.

Just after receiving the news of the discovery of the Soviet bomber group, the Hitler aircraft carrier began to take off the carrier based aircraft on the bow deck while recovering the carrier based aircraft.

When the accelerator was pushed to the maximum, the supercharger of the engine whistled. Two fw190 left the take-off line and quickly rushed to the battlefield airspace. In the rear parking area, two new fw190 were quickly dragged to the parking stand.

The landing of the aircraft continued, and the takeoff was not affected at all. In just five minutes, six fw190 left the aircraft carrier. These standby carrier based aircraft were used at critical times.

After the landing of the hs129 fleet, the fw190 carrier aircraft also began to land. Compared with those hs129 pulled into the hangar, the fw190 carrier aircraft did not enter the hangar. After landing, they pulled them to the bow area, refueled and hung bombs, and then they could take off again.

German sea formation is the most efficient combat machine! A mere 20 or so Soviet bombers are unlikely to pose a threat to our own side.
