With the roar from the tail, Ted pushed the throttle lever to the maximum, and the flame at the tail turned orange. Release the brake, and the fighter plane slid quickly on the frozen runway. The flame at the tail melted the ice and exposed the snow-white special concrete below.

The two stormbirds soon pulled up. After the formation took off, they turned southwest in the climb and rushed towards the target under the guidance of ground radar.

Ted was calm.

Generally speaking, soldiers who have experienced combat for the first time will have an inexplicable excitement, but Ted is not. His heart is very calm, just like previous flight training.

In contrast, Carl, the pilot of the long plane in front, was a little excited. He came and finally came. He didn't fight enough in the air battle last time. This time, he can finally fight happily!

Kill their reconnaissance plane, fire three guns at once and hit one. This is the target Carl set for himself.

In the past, Carl was the wingman of Novotny. Almost often, he flew behind Novotny's ass to protect his rear hemisphere. He rarely had the opportunity to fire. Now it's different. He has been promoted to a long plane.

This time there must be results!

The two planes climbed to a cruising altitude of 14000 meters, began their normal cruising state and rushed towards the target.

They flew away from Greenland to the south of Davis Strait, the northwest corner of the Atlantic Ocean.

Below is the blue sea. Two silvery white fighters are flying lightly, getting closer and closer to the target.

At this time, Ted looked at the distant sky with his sharp eyes, hoping to find a goal in the clear sky.

Normally, in a clear sky, he should be able to see the aircraft in the airspace 30 kilometers away.

At this time, in the rear radar station, the radar soldiers were also staring at the screen. They didn't dare to blink. On the screen, the bright spot suddenly began to turn around.

"Attention, attention, the target is turning to escape. The target is fleeing to the southwest." Norwatney's words came from the radio: "catch up and kill it!"

No aircraft can escape the interception of jets. The fastest propeller aircraft can fly to 700 kilometers per hour, which is already very adverse. However, jets can easily fly to 1000 kilometers per hour.

As long as you want, the other party can't escape!

"Note that it is about to fly out of the radar monitoring area. Be careful." Just then, Novotny's voice continued to come.

The ground warning radar has an air search distance of about 300 km, so it is easy for them to fly out of this range. After all, at the speed and range of jet aircraft, about 500 km is the most common.

This is not too dangerous. Radar is a new thing. In the past, there was no radar and there was no need to take off for combat?

Radar is only an auxiliary, which is everyone's view.

"Received." Carl shouted on the radio, "we'll catch up!"

At this time, Carl could see a clear bright spot in the distant sky. It was the fleeing enemy plane!

Still want to run?

"Gum, keep up." Carl shouted to his wingman on the radio.

Ted can only smile about this radio nickname. During the flight training these days, the so-called old flying birds found that no matter what action they do, Ted, a rookie, can actually keep up, just like gum, so they nicknamed Ted gum.

Ted doesn't like it and doesn't resist it. What's secondary is as long as he can fight.

Ted has also seen a bright spot in the distance. I don't know why. When he sees this bright spot, he always has a strange feeling that something is wrong!

The other side's speed is not fast, only about 400 kilometers per hour. In the eyes of a jet flying about 1000 kilometers per hour, it is as slow as a snail.

Soon, the target gradually became clear. What appeared in front of him was no longer a bright spot, but had an outline. Suddenly, Ted shouted on the radio: "they are not one plane, they are four!"

The resolution of radar is not high. When flying in dense formation, a bright spot will appear on the radar. Even in later generations, this is also the most common tactic.

I think it's more than enough for the other side to send two. As a result, when I get to the front, it turns into four, and the advantage turns into a disadvantage.

It's like a luxury car scraping with a Wuling van. Two bodyguards came down from the luxury car to get back face. As a result, more than 20 people came down from the Wuling van. What a spectacular scene.

Although he saw that the other side was four, Carl was not afraid, but more excited. What are you afraid of? The more the number of the other side, the more his own achievements!

"Visually, it is the P-51 Mustang, the main fighter of the United States." Ted continued to shout on the radio.

Carl is even less afraid when he sees a Mustang. This kind of aircraft can't do anything. It's not as good as the inverted seagull of the U.S. Navy. At least, the inverted seagull climbs very rapidly. However, this kind of aircraft can't do all its performance. The climb can't even compare with fw190, let alone with jet aircraft.

Just then, the four target Mustang fighters suddenly separated into two groups, and then began to dive down.

"Gum, we'll deal with two each!" Carl shouted on the radio.

Now they only have two fighters. The other party clearly found them and wanted to escape separately. If it was still the formation of long aircraft and wingmen, they would certainly let go of two. Carl was unwilling.

At the same time, it is also a chance for Ted. Generally speaking, the wingman rarely has a chance to fight directly. Now he throws two to Ted at once to make Ted win for the first time. Carl is very satisfied with his wingman.

Ted was stunned when he heard that he wanted to deal with it separately. The captain stressed that the long plane and wingman flew in formation every day. Now Carl actually said he wanted to separate?

However, in the air, the wingman must obey the command of the captain. In the current situation, it seems that separation is also the most appropriate.

So Ted stopped hesitating and dived down with him.

Carl left and Ted right. They dive towards two two two aircraft formations.

What's the problem with running in a dozen and not fighting with them in the horizontal plane? Depending on the situation, the other party must want to dive to the sea and use their good horizontal mobility to get rid of it. Ted remembered his fighting skills in recent days and was ready to dive down.
