Time goes back half an hour.

Dozens of kilometers away from Amare oilfield.

A long runway is inconspicuous in the desert, while the small buildings and the coating of the appearance are the same as the desert. If you don't look carefully, you can't recognize them at all, especially from the sky, they are almost integrated with sand dunes.

Here is the secret military research base established by Germany in Libya. The original Panther tank project was offline from here. Now, it is an important military research base in Germany.

On the runway, a special aircraft is preparing for takeoff.

From the appearance, this plane is different from previous planes. The biggest difference is that there is no propeller!

In terms of body shape, it is the size of a fighter. For an ordinary fighter, the nose should be huge. After all, the engine is installed there, and the propeller extends forward.

But now? The nose is small and looks very smooth, while two cylindrical things are hung on the wings on both sides.

Some are similar to the layout of two engines. This cylindrical thing is not a piston engine. It is the most precious thing of the aircraft, the jet engine.

This is a jet!

There are many differences with the propeller aircraft of this era. For example, its wing is swept back and flat. Compared with the straight wing, it can achieve greater speed, and it is the landing gear at the first three points.

At this time, on the side of the plane, a tall Germanic is patrolling the plane. His handsome face is proud.

He is the designer of this plane, Willie messeschmidt, and this plane is his greatest pride! This is the first jet aircraft in the world to enter the final design and test flight stage!

This aircraft, the me262 fighter, is almost identical to that in history, except for the swept wing. The time was several years ahead of schedule.

Messeschmidt was very excited.

The success of the BF109 fighter has made messeschmidt gain a high reputation. This fighter has been ahead of other countries for several years and left Britain far behind. When the BF109 flies in the sky, there is nothing he can't deal with.

Because of this credit, Hitler rewarded messeschmidt. The biggest reward was to rename the Bavarian aircraft manufacturing company as messeschmidt aircraft manufacturing company.

Therefore, the previous aircraft models are named after BF, while the new aircraft are named after me! This is the initials of Dr. messeschmidt.

(there is a big question from the readers, isn't it Me109? How did it become BF109? To be exact, Bavaria aircraft factory was renamed in 38 years in history. BF was used in the past and me was used in the future, so BF109 is right.)

However, BF109 did not dominate for several years. Later, with the support of the Navy, fw190 came out. This fighter with high-power air-cooled engine exceeded BF109 in performance

At that time, messeschmidt was very unwilling. He wanted to continue to improve the BF109 and make the performance of the fighter surpass the other party. However, later, at the suggestion of Shrek, he changed his plan.

Piston fighter is about to reach the limit of performance. Due to the limitation of propeller, the aircraft speed can not be too large, especially can not exceed the sound speed.

If you want to fly faster, you need a jet! The Messerschmitt company will focus on the development of jets!

This is not impossible.

In history, as early as September 37, the first turbojet engine in Germany was designed by Professor Hans Joachim Pabst von ohein of Gottingen University.

After that, von ohein went to Ernst Henkel's company to work. On August 27, 39, the world's first plane to fly completely relying on turbojet engine made its first flight.

At the same time, Brandenburg engine factory is also manufacturing jet engines, which is abbreviated as BMW (not BMW).

The biggest difference between the scheme of this field and ohayin's design is the use of axial compressor. Such an engine has small cross-sectional area and low speed at the same thrust output. It is the most suitable scheme under the current industrial basic conditions.

Now, with the passage of Chirac, these technologies are several years ahead of history. Several companies in Germany have made great efforts to study jet engines, based on the high investment of imperial aviation.

Last year, the JUMO 004 turbojet engine of Junker engine manufacturing plant stood out in the competition of several engines and was selected by the imperial aviation department as the power of the next generation of jet aircraft. Now the me262, the huge engine on both wings, is this kind of jet engine.

In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, the aircraft is tested at the base in Libya. There is a vast space here. Even if it is a crash, it will not cause accidental injury and leak secrets.

Every test flight is one step closer to the ideal. Now this aircraft has entered the final stage. After flying for a period of time, it can be finalized and delivered to the air force slowly.

Beside messeschmidt, test pilot Fritz Wendell, wearing a full set of flight equipment, was ready to board for a test flight.

The weather in Libya was very hot, and Wendell didn't say much. After waving to messeschmidt, he climbed up the gangway and entered the bubble cabin to prepare for takeoff.

Just then, suddenly, a signalman hurried over and shouted, "emergency, emergency, please stop the test flight immediately. The British bombing is coming soon!"

Long range surveillance radar, after discovering the British bomber formation, immediately sent the alarm everywhere, including the base here.

British, it's going to be bombed. For the sake of insurance, the test flight is suspended!

Upon hearing this, Messe Schmidt was stunned. Then a bold idea came out of his mind: "load the plane immediately! We can beat the Brits this time! "

This aircraft has entered the late stage of the test flight and has been equipped with weapons, but it has not been loaded. Now it is loaded immediately and can just catch up with the interception!

"But general Albert told you to stop the test flight." Said the signalman.

"Fuck Albert, I'm directly responsible to the Fuehrer." Messeschmidt said, "get away from me!"

This is a good opportunity!, Messeschmidt is ready to try.
