Pilot Rick carefully observed the carrier deck ahead and constantly adjusted his glide line.

In the jet age of later generations, it is necessary to have various landing aids to help pilots land, but now, all rely on the pilots' real skills.

From the sky, the aircraft carrier deck on the sea is too small, and it is still shaking!

Even if the takeoff and landing characteristics of propeller aircraft are better, it is also a great challenge! The pilots landed at sea after many simulations on land. Moreover, the first landing was thrilling for everyone.

Of course, it doesn't matter this time. In the previous trials, they landed many times. For example, Rick, the HNA hero returning from Spain, this is his 14th landing.

The glide line is very beautiful. When his fuselage height drops to be flush with the aircraft carrier, he just comes to the end of the deck. His aircraft gently touches the aircraft carrier, and then he hears the sound of normal wheel friction. Land accurately!

The nose was high, and Rick took both sides as a reference and firmly hooked a stop rope.

Successful landing!

The plane was towed to the parking area of the triangle. At the same time, the next plane landed smoothly, one after another, landing 20 all the time. This is the standard of HNA brigade, and Rick is the captain of this brigade!

"Well, this plane looks good." As soon as Rick opened the cockpit cover, he saw a chubby officer wearing an air force uniform. Rick immediately saluted: "Hello, general!"

It was Goering who came. Now Goering is still a general. In later generations, Goering was promoted to field marshal of the air force until he occupied France.

When the others on the bridge were still watching the planes landing and the tense and orderly scheduling on the deck, Goering had already run to the deck. He couldn't wait to see the plane.

The plane looks longer. On the one hand, it is because of the air-cooled engine in front of it. On the other hand, it is to be equipped with more fuel. At the same time, the cockpit is what Goering expects most.

He asked Rick to come down. He climbed up and sat inside. He was familiar with the appearance. At the same time, he felt that the sitting position was very high and the surrounding vision was very open!

Historically, no matter what kind of aircraft in Germany, the high-altitude performance of the fighter has been poor because of the low fuel label and the inability to get high-performance multi-stage supercharger. Now, the broken leg has been promoted. At least, the passenger plane made by Hughes needs excellent high-altitude performance.

The high-altitude air is thin and the resistance is small, so you can fly farther. Therefore, many American technologies brought by Hughes have completely solved the problem of supercharger. In the early stage, the BMW engine with 1800 horsepower can work well at an altitude of more than seven kilometers.

At the same time, the high-power engine can make up for the lack of aerodynamics, so that all kinds of data of this aircraft exceed BF109!

Although Goering wanted to say that he wanted to find a chance to have a competition, he didn't put forward the idea when he thought that the engine of this aircraft was full of 1800 horsepower. The Navy knew the parameters of its own BF109. Now that the other party said to surpass in an all-round way, it must be surpassing.

"General Goering, isn't the Navy's plane good?" A voice came from behind.

On the deck, the wind was blowing, and everyone was very excited.

The German Navy is finally strong. They have their own aircraft carrier and their own carrier aircraft! Now, this row of Shipborne aircraft is here. It's really spectacular!

For Goering, there are countless hot flames in his heart at this time.

Although the aircraft factories in Germany are at full power, the expansion speed of the German air force is still far from expected due to the limited output of db601 engine!

(in World War II, the total output of BF109 was as high as 35000, which was quite shocking. The most important thing was that this kind of aircraft was simple in design, easy to process, and the production hours were half less than those of panther tanks! However, the output of the engine has always been insufficient. Moreover, this kind of engine has to be supplied to other aircraft.)

Now, this kind of aircraft uses BMW's engine, and there will be no engine scrambling. At the same time, BMW's production capacity is also sufficient. Why not order a batch of such aircraft for the air force?

In this way, the air force can go back and compare them to see which of the two aircraft is suitable.

Thinking of this, Goering smiled and said to Shrek, "this kind of aircraft looks good. Our air force wants to order a batch."

"General Goering? What are you talking about? I can't hear you? " Cried Herrick, the wind was strong on the deck.

"Our air force wants to order this kind of aircraft." Yelled Goering.

"Two years ago, didn't you say that BF109 was the most advanced? He also said that the navy must not be able to make advanced aircraft? " "Now, you regret it," said Shrek

Goering's face suddenly changed. His skin was not thick at all. Of course he remembered the past.

He didn't want the navy to have planes. It was appropriate for him to take charge of everything that could fly in the Empire. Therefore, at that time, he was creating various obstacles for the Navy, but now, the aircraft developed by the navy has exceeded his imagination.

Of course he wants it, and Shrek needs his recognition.

Regret it?

Although this aircraft is designed and produced by Fokker company, the whole project is invested by the Navy. It was made clear at the time of the agreement that it can only be produced for the Navy. If others want to order, they must be approved by the Navy.

"Well, I can agree to equip the Navy's aircraft carrier with the air force's Stuka bomber." Goering said.

It is certainly impossible for Goering to admit that he was wrong! Goering is a famous man. How can he say the wrong thing?

Therefore, Goering immediately changed. The original dispute came from Goering's unwillingness to equip the Navy with the BF109 of the air force, so the Navy developed it by itself.

However, it is impossible to have only one aircraft on an aircraft carrier. After all, the role of an aircraft carrier is to carry fighters to attack the enemy.

Up to now, it is not easy for the navy to invest all its funds in the research and development of fw190. They absolutely have no excess funds for the research and development of other aircraft, such as the most important dive bomber!

Simply, the two sides can exchange. The air force can use fw190 and the navy can also use Stuka. This kind of dive bomber is also quite good to fight warships at sea.
