"Three enemy planes besieged us." The wingman continued to shout.

At this time, the Americans have reacted. They thought that a large group of German planes had killed them. Who knows, there were only two planes in total. They have stirred up their own side and lost three fighters. This is a disgrace to the US Navy!

So, three fighters in the vicinity immediately rushed fiercely and wanted to hang Lieutenant Colonel Lange.

"Climb with me, full speed." Lieutenant Colonel Langer shouted on the radio. He pushed the accelerator all the way and moved the switch flexibly with his fingers.

As he pressed the switch, nitrous oxide gas in a low-temperature steel cylinder at his back rapidly gasified and sprayed into the front engine cylinder along the pipeline.

This is another common way for German fighters, nitrogen acceleration( It's actually nitrous oxide, but as a common saying, it's called nitrogen acceleration.)

Just like MiG-25 spraying water in the air inlet to stimulate the engine and increase power, this way of nitrogen acceleration is more violent and direct. The desire for power is always endless. Although the fw190 engine is quite powerful, it still needs to be stimulated in a short time by this means.

As he started nitrous oxide to accelerate, the nozzle of the engine directly sprayed flames. The whole engine was roaring hard, and the power in a moment exceeded 2500 horsepower.

Under the strong power, the whole aircraft quickly jumped up and climbed rapidly.

Therefore, the pilots of the three American fighter planes could only look up at how the fighter plane, which was originally surrounded by them, flew into the sky.

Stimulated by the acceleration of nitrogen, fw190 climbs upward at a terrible climb rate. Even the nearest American fighter has no chance to aim and shoot. They can only look up and watch the other party disappear in their field of vision.

The two fw190 climbed and soon disappeared from the sky. However, a minute later, the terrible roar came from the sky.

The most common tactic in Germany is to dive down from the air and attack by relying on the terrible climbing ability, and then pull it up. The other party can only be beaten and can't fight back. This kind of scene is the most pleasing.

Now, Lieutenant Colonel Langer, who swooped down quickly, aimed at an enemy again. With the roar of the nose axle gun, the fourth fighter plane was shot down again.

Then there was the fifth and the sixth. When it reached the sixth, Lieutenant Colonel Langer climbed up again and let the nearby American fighter pilots curse.

Come down! It's nothing to fight and run!

The Americans were angered. In the process, they also kept climbing, climbing, trying to find the trace of German fighters.

Unknowingly, the height has exceeded 5000 meters.

The 1200 horsepower engine is roaring. Although the lift limit of the buffalo fighter exceeds 10000 meters, its performance is even worse above 5000 meters.

The biggest disadvantage of this fighter is that it is overweight, which leads to the aircraft being extremely bulky and has always been suspended on the battlefield.

If we say the advantages, the range should be counted as far, and its maximum range has reached 2700 kilometers.

At an altitude of 5000 meters, the fighter pilots of the US Navy are concentrating on searching for the two disappeared targets. Their heads are constantly looking at the sky. The Germans always like to dive down from high altitude.

At the same time, they are constantly changing direction. In battle, keeping a straight flight for 30 seconds means death, which is an absolute truth.

"Bang, bang!" When the gunfire rang out again, the hit pilot was immediately surprised. The gunfire came from below. When did the Germans fly under their own side?

Unfortunately, no one answered his question. With the gunfire, his plane was hit in two from the air and rolled down.

Seventh!

The naval battle over the Atlantic was officially opened under the attack of Lieutenant Colonel Langer and his wingmen. A tragic sea and air war was being staged. At this time, a debate also entered a white hot stage in the White House.

"Haven't we made a plan to put our main force after the German landing?" Arnold looked at the senior officials present, very disappointed and angry: "now? How did they become the main force of naval aviation and all of them were dispatched? "

In the past, after Arnold's strong persuasion, finally, even President Roosevelt agreed to give up Greenland, which could not be held, and then sneak attacks when the other side returned to try to defeat the German aircraft carrier formation.

If you want to hit the German Navy hard, you must have a huge fleet of aircraft.

In Arnold's plan, it is not enough to have only the bombers of the army air force, nor is the army's P-51. We must add the Shanghai army.

Although the Navy's aircraft carrier has not yet appeared, the navy has trained a large number of naval aviation troops and a large number of carrier aircraft pilots, waiting for the aircraft carrier.

Who would have thought that now, the Navy actually made its own decision, took off almost all the aircraft fleet and ran to intercept it 300 nautical miles away from Greenland.

This can't help but make Arnold very angry.

At first, his proposal refuted Nimitz's proposal. Nimitz can have opinions, but now, the battle has begun, Arnold can't accept it.

This is no longer a contradiction between the services of the army and the Navy. It is simply a terrible act of treason!

"Arnold, please don't be angry." Said general Ernest Joseph King.

When it comes to the US Navy, the most interesting thing is Nimitz. In fact, on Nimitz's head, there is admiral Kim, such as a fake five-star admiral.

Admiral Kim's duties are commander in chief of the US Navy, Secretary of naval operations, member of the Joint Chiefs of staff and member of the Anglo American joint command( At this time, of course, the United States continued to recognize the British government in exile.)

Due to the complexity of the military establishment during the war, the US Navy nominally combined the Atlantic Fleet and the Pacific Fleet to form the "US fleet" during World War II. Admiral Kim is the commander-in-chief of the "US fleet", that is, the commander-in-chief of the Navy. During the war, he participated in the formulation of the U.S. Navy's operational plan and mainly coordinated and commanded the U.S. military operations in the Pacific War. Moreover, he also personally served as commander of the US Atlantic Fleet and was responsible for Atlantic operations.

Compared with Nimitz who commanded the Pacific battlefield, Admiral Kim was the actual person in charge of the navy of the operation.
