The navigation of this era is quite backward.
In later generations, with advanced laser gyro, it can have quite high operation accuracy. With the help of global positioning system and so on, it is very simple to determine your own orientation.
But it was different during World War II.
The navigation during World War II was quite primitive and backward. It can be said that it mainly relied on magnetic compass and aeronautical chart.
When taking off, the navigator holds a chart in his hand, constantly marks it on the chart, and determines his position according to his heading, speed, time and other information.
In this way, the error is definitely not small. For example, when Britain bombed Germany, several air bombing teams often flew and missed hundreds of kilometers.
Then, the navigator is extremely important. An experienced navigator is a valuable asset in the air force and is highly respected.
In addition to marking aeronautical charts, navigators can also use landmarks to determine and correct their navigation errors.
Each bombing is a large formation, which is not a pose. It is mainly to follow the navigation aircraft, so that there will be more opportunities to find the target to bomb.
Although radio navigation was widely used in World War II, radio navigation was easily disturbed, and there were distance restrictions. Long distance bombing had to rely on the most basic way.
It's still land, and it's even more troublesome at sea. If there is no experienced navigator, there will definitely be flying out, and then you can't find an aircraft carrier when you fly back. After all, the sea is endless, and there are no landmarks to learn from.
Therefore, the general naval ship borne aircraft will not go out alone. After the fight, they will wait in the airspace. When they have enough, they will go together. It's sad to be alone.
The current British air force, although not at sea, is almost at sea. There are deserts below. In the desert, there are sand dunes everywhere. It's not easy to find certain coordinates!
What does that mean?
When starting from Egypt, the error began to accumulate. After flying to Libya, the error has been more than ten kilometers.
Generally, this is nothing. An error of more than ten kilometers is not called an error. After all, in the sky, it is easy to see a target more than ten kilometers away and it is easy to correct.
But now, there is smoke everywhere on the ground, and they can't see it at all.
Philip thought that the oil base was shrouded in the thick smoke in front of him. In fact, Amare oilfield is still more than ten kilometers away!
And the distance of more than ten kilometers is the distance between life and death!
Libya, in addition to oil bases, there are also secret military bases! Although the scale of the military base is not very large for various reasons, it is not difficult to raise hundreds of high artillery and pull out hundreds of anti-aircraft guns!
For example, now, in the middle of two burning oil barrels, several high-altitude artillery are ready. In their hands, they operate the most famous 40mm boforth anti-aircraft gun.
The shell had already been loaded into the chamber, the muzzle had been aimed at the front, and the main gunner's foot stepped on the launcher.
Now, they don't need too much operation at all. They just wait for the last shot.
Of course, these burning oil drums are not placed randomly. If there is no smoke, you can find that there are channels in the middle of the oil drums, and at the end of the channel, there are anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns!
Of course, this is a trap. If the smoke makes the British air force return, forget it. If they dare to sneak in and attack, this is their place of death!
When it is set, they don't even need to aim at it at all. The elevation and heading of their anti-aircraft guns are correct. They just wait for fire. As long as the other party appears in the field of vision, they can hit directly!
Libya is already hot. In the flame, I am even hotter. In this case, the anti-aircraft artillery soldiers are sweating, but no one is complaining and tired.
If compared with the soldiers in Germany, it can be found that they are obviously dark. The sun in North Africa is really poisonous.
The sweat on his forehead dripped down, dripped in his eyes, and flowed into his mouth. Painfully, the high artillery wiped his sweat with a towel around his neck. Then, between the flames in the distance, a flying thing suddenly appeared.
Englishman, the Englishman is coming!
This is definitely a narrow road!
Philip flew his own bomber between the flames. He had judged that it was definitely a trap. However, he had no plan to fight back. He could only pray for God's blessing and blow up here first!
When he turned quickly between the flames in front of him, Philip found that an anti-aircraft gun was aiming right in front of his route! When he found out, the distance between the two sides was only 300 meters!
What should I do?
Philip made a decision at this moment, flew over and greeted each other with his own bomb!
Ordinary people will subconsciously pull up, but it is definitely looking for death. When they pull up, the smoke above will make the plane fall. At the same time, when they pull up, the belly of the aircraft faces the anti-aircraft gun, which will increase the bomb area.
When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins!
Philip pulled the accelerator to the end in an instant. The engine in front roared and the propeller accelerated. He shouted to the navigator and bomber sitting in the middle, "ready to throw!"
At this time, with the tacit understanding of the crew's cooperation for many years, the bomber quickly turned the switch in front of him to prepare for bombing.
Just now, when they were drilling around in the flame, the speed of the aircraft was very small. Now when they encounter anti-aircraft guns, they must accelerate to fly over. The faster the speed, the less dangerous they are.
Almost at the same time, Philip saw the muzzle of the other party's anti-aircraft gun and burst into flames. He was very nervous in his heart. At this moment, he had a hunch that he couldn't fly!
"Bang, bang!" The 40mm bofoss antiaircraft gun fired fiercely. With high firing speed, more than a dozen 40mm shells flew over in a short time.
"Boom!" The other side hit very accurately. The third 40mm shell was in close contact with the "combat" bomber. It was facing the propeller and exploded.
The propeller was suddenly bent, and the engine behind was hit by several shrapnel, and black smoke came out from inside.
If an air-cooled engine is damaged by one or two cylinders, it can persist. However, for a liquid-cooled engine, as long as it is damaged a little, the engine will be finished.
Moreover, this is only one shot, and the next few shells came up accurately!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
