Biplane is good.

Britain is conservative. In the era when uniwing aircraft and fully enclosed cockpit have appeared, they still hold the swordfish torpedo aircraft. In their eyes, biplane has two wings, which is safer when flying. Moreover, once one wing has a problem, there is another wing, which can continue to fly.

Like now.

This swordfish torpedo plane is lucky, because its upper wing is damaged, and its engine and propeller are intact. At this time, Charlie can't care too much. Get the plane out and take off!

Looking at Charlie's insistence, other ground attendants can only do so.

A ground service car was driven over. In fact, it was an ordinary truck. Several ground service men tied ropes to the plane and then drove the truck.

Normally, as long as a few ground attendants push, the plane can come out of the hangar.

But not now, because the hangar had collapsed, and there were several ruins in front of it, with a spade to arrange the slant, and then to pull it out by truck.

The exhaust pipe of the truck was emitting black smoke, the engine was roaring, and the swordfish torpedo machine behind was being pulled out bit by bit.

This is the biggest slope. After pulling it, you can enter the runway.

Although the runway was bumpy, Charlie had no other choice. He had to take off!

"Come on, come on!" Charlie quickly walked a few steps to the side of the fuselage and pushed the plane together. The slope is too big to pull just by the truck. We must rely on everyone to work hard!

The wheel was stuck on a big brick. A dozen people shouted to push the plane over.

Once, twice, the fuselage shook more and more. Finally, the fourth time, the wheel successfully rolled over the stone!

Everyone was tired and sweating. Charlie wiped the sweat on his forehead. Suddenly, his ears stood up.

What's that noise?

In the distance, there is a dull buzzing sound, which is so familiar

Looking down at the sound, Charlie saw a bright spot in the southeast sky, glittering silver.

Plane!

"Pay attention to air defense!" Charlie shouted loudly. It was definitely a plane flying at a very low altitude in the distance. The plane that appeared at this time must be German!

The airport here suffered a sneak attack. When junker-88 swooped and dropped bombs, it was in a panic and could not carry out effective air defense at all.

But now, they have reacted. All personnel are in place to rescue the fighter and put out the fire. At the same time, they are also preparing.

The anti-aircraft gun positions were destroyed at the first time, so they had to rescue several anti-aircraft machine guns from the warehouse.

Near Charlie, there was an anti-aircraft machine gun emplacement.

Watching each other approaching, Charlie knew that if he wanted to fly his own plane, he had to kill the German plane!

So he shouted and ran to the machine gun position.

"Come on, load!" Charlie shouted loudly. There are not enough hands. There are only two people in the machine gun position here. Now, Charlie ran over and immediately acted as a machine gunner and asked the people next to him to load bullets.

This is the Vickers Mk III machine gun, that is, the Navy version of the 0.5-inch Vickers anti-aircraft machine gun. It is also the most successful model in the three versions of the gun, sea, land and air.

The air-cooled barrel, with heat dissipation holes outside, looks ferocious, while four such barrels look even more terrible.

Yes, this machine gun is a quadruple.

After careful comparison, the British Navy finally chose this weapon. It is equipped with quadruple and has crazy firepower. It can provide firepower coverage of 18m wide and 15m high at a distance of 914m. It can be said that as long as it is aimed, it will never escape.

At the same time, the machine gun adopts bullet drum for bullet supply. Two large bullet drums are set on both sides of the machine gun frame. Each bullet drum can provide 200 rounds of ammunition for the corresponding machine gun, and the four bullet drums can fill 800 rounds of ammunition in total.

The plane opposite is quite strange. It is not like other planes in the air and then dive down to attack. It is flying at ultra-low altitude. It may be to search for targets in the thick smoke.

This is better. Our own machine gun is the best at eliminating ultra-low altitude flying targets. According to the technical manual, this 4-Pack Vickers Mk III machine gun can deal with aircraft flying within the altitude range of 1371M and below.

The plane quickly approached. As a naval pilot, Charlie was quite familiar with any kind of plane equipped by the Germans, but now, this flying plane was much more than he knew.

Not seen.

Single wing with engines on both sides. This layout should have been a bomber, but judging from the size of each other, it is much smaller than a bomber. What kind of plane is this?

On the nose, there is a picture of a shark's big mouth, which looks ferocious.

Whatever his plane, fire and kill each other!

It's very secret here, and behind it is the swordfish torpedo machine and the towed truck. The other pilot's attention must be on it. He didn't see it. He just opened fire and killed the other party!

The other party was approaching quickly. When the distance reached one kilometer, Charlie pressed the trigger hard.

"Bang bang," the quadruple machine gun, with extremely fierce firepower, emitted flames from each muzzle, and bullets formed a huge barrage, just like the arrow rain in ancient times, flying to the plane opposite.

This machine gun has a firing speed of 600 rounds / min. now, in order to kill the other party, Charlie has almost no interval. He holds down the launcher and expects the other party to smoke.

The bullets spilled into the plane in the air. At this time, the pilot in the cabin, Lieutenant steinkamp, found that he had made a mistake.

There was a hidden anti-aircraft machine gun position on the ground. I didn't find it! When I saw the swordfish torpedo machine, I focused on it!

How can I make such a low-level mistake!

This is a 12.7 mm machine gun bullet, which is also mixed with armor piercing bullets. If an ordinary aircraft is surrounded by this bullet rain, Ken will be shot down.

Almost at the same time, Lieutenant steinkamp heard the sound of bullets colliding with his plane. The sound from the bathtub was so clear, but he was fine!

This kind of aircraft is a tank flying in the air. You can't even hurt it with a bang gun, let alone an ordinary anti-aircraft machine gun!

If an ordinary plane, it must climb and leave immediately, and when climbing, the weakest belly will be exposed, and lieutenant steinkamp is even faster after he finds out that he has been attacked.

Of course, it's not pulling up to escape, but diving down!

Push the operating lever and the nose down. At this time, hs129 is facing the four barrel anti-aircraft machine gun. Then, Lieutenant steinkamp pressed the red button on the operating lever.

Come on, hurt each other!
