Baffin Island, the largest island in Canada and the fifth largest island in the world. Part of the Canadian Arctic islands. Across Baffin Bay and Davis Strait in the East, it is opposite to Greenland.

The terrain here is complex, and the mountains are higher than 8000 feet. The ridge runs through the east of the island and is covered with glaciers. The coast of fox Bay in the Midwest is a lowland with tortuous coastline and many fjords.

Most of the island is located in the Arctic circle. It is cold and long in winter and cold in summer. Only a few Inuit people live on the island.

The island is across the Strait from Greenland. It is said that the Germans took Greenland, and the next goal should be here. In fact, as long as you analyze it carefully, you know there is no need.

Because it's too cold here.

The German occupation of Greenland is to use Greenland as a springboard to cross the sea and land in America. No matter how vast the territory is, it is not of much use. Moreover, the island is full of mountains. The German occupation here is of no value.

Therefore, it makes sense to rush south from Greenland, either directly to the United States or to the warmer Labrador island.

At this time, in frobishebe, south of Baffin Island, a man came outside an ordinary household.

Frobisher is one of the main settlements on Baffin Island. There are about thousands of residents living here. Because it is too cold, there are no tall buildings, almost all of them are bungalows.

The door was opened and the man was welcomed into the room. He went straight to the fireplace and quickly warmed up. He came all the way and was frozen.

A limping man came over and sat next to him. Then he reacted: "Colonel!"

Colonel Eddie nodded, "what do you find?"

"We observed near the unfinished aviation base. Sure enough, after the Germans completed them, they began to station German fighters. In particular, there was a jet brigade, which transferred to H3 base." Said the man.

Jet brigade! Colonel Eddie's eyes lit up when he heard this. After waiting for a few days, he really waited for good news!

At the same time, he was also surprised by Donovan's judgment. The Germans did deploy the jet force to Greenland.

Because Greenland has just been occupied, a large number of American intelligence personnel can easily stay on the island. Because of the cold weather there, it is impossible for the Germans to conduct perfect personnel screening. In this way, their personnel can move normally, and now they have finally gained!

"At the same time, we also used radio equipment to receive their radio navigation signals and give them to the rear personnel. We should be able to simulate the information." The man continued.

The Germans have used advanced radio navigation equipment to navigate by sending radio signals. In fact, this system is easy to copy. As long as we get the signal, we can simulate it.

Eddie nodded at the school: "well, our simulation site has been built. Now, our feather lentil plan has officially begun!"

Everything is ready, only due to the east wind. Now that the German fighters are in place, the next action will finally begin.

There are skills to steal fighter planes. It's impossible to steal them directly.

Autumn is coming, winter is coming, the days are getting shorter and the nights are getting longer.

The cold wind keeps blowing. In many weather, even the taking off and landing of aircraft will be dangerous. The wind will directly blow over the taking off and landing aircraft. This is the terrible climate in the Arctic.

The base is still busy.

"Recently, the focus of our training is still the training of intercepting bombers with rockets." Nowotny said: "I'd like to tell you a good news. Our suggestions on the improvement of fighters have been reported. Soon, we will be equipped with 30mm machine guns and our fuselage will be reinforced."

The last interception experiment showed that in order to deal with large targets such as B-29 bombers, the effect of rockets was good, as long as they were accurate enough, but the 20mm machine gun was not powerful enough.

In World War II, Mauser's mg151 series 20mm machine gun was praised as the most suitable machine gun. It has been used since the war and has encountered B-29. Finally, it is not enough.

Therefore, we continued to develop a new 30mm machine gun. The original MK101 has too much weight and is not suitable. Up to now, the improved mk108 has finally come out. It has light weight, compact structure and high lethality. It is just the first to equip the jet. After all, it is the easiest for this aircraft to place an air gun.

At the same time, the suggestions on strengthening the parts of the fuselage with few bullets were also seriously absorbed and adopted.

Hearing that they should be equipped with 30mm machine guns, many people were excited at once, especially after the last battle. After coming down, they analyzed the firing data to deal with B-29, and at least 30 20mm shells were needed!

Now, it's time for a new gun, which is good news.

However, Ted asked, "shall we change one door or three doors?"

Among the flying troops, Ted is the most thoughtful person. Although Novotny was most satisfied with Ted within a few days.

Now, he raised a very important question.

The trajectory of a 20mm machine gun is different from that of a 30mm machine gun. If only one is changed and the other two are 20mm, the sight cannot be adjusted. The trajectory of a 30mm machine gun is more curved, while the trajectory of a 20mm machine gun is straight. If it is only adjusted to the middle, 30mm shells will fly from below and 20mm shells will fly from above the target, No one can hit the result.

If all 30mm machine guns are used, it will reduce the amount of ammunition and the durability is not high.

This is also a thorny question. As soon as Novotny was about to answer, he heard a harsh air defense alarm outside.

No, there's a situation!

When he heard the sound, Ted immediately picked up his flying hat from one side and ran out. Today, he was on combat readiness duty with his long plane Carl snow.

Carl also rushed out. Almost at the same time, they rushed to the plane and jumped in. The cold from the seat made his ass cold.

Toggle the switches and start the engine. When the roar of the engine came from the tail, the voice of Nowotny running to the tower came from the earphone: "attention, in the southwest, there is a target flying from the Labrador Peninsula, with an altitude of 8000 and a speed of 500. It may be an American reconnaissance aircraft."

There is only one target. It must be a reconnaissance plane. Now it is a time of war. Of course, we should shoot it down without hesitation!
