When the German Stuka bombers were raging throughout Western Europe, the Soviets in the East were also thinking. When the German hs129 appeared as a flying tank, the Soviets were even more shocked.

The Soviets also had to have the same weapons as Germany, which played a very powerful role in supporting the ground!

Therefore, under various pressures, the Department led by Sergei V Ilyushin under the central design bureau of the Soviet Union (tskb) has been committed to a new model called tskb-55 since two years ago. The name given by the military is bsh-2, that is, "armored ground attack aircraft."

The initial design requirements are: the total weight of single engine, two seats, engine and crew shall not be greater than 700 kg. It is also stipulated that nickel molybdenum alloy steel armor plate with a thickness of 4 to 7 mm must be installed. The wing is all metal, while the fuselage is a mixture of metal and wood, and the rear of the fuselage is wood.

The engine is mikulin am-35, with 1350 horsepower.

One year later, the prototype was manufactured. It installed four 7.62mm shkas machine guns on the wing and one at the rear of the cockpit; The magazine inside the wing can carry four 100 kg bombs, or two 250 kg bombs can be hung under the wing.

Unfortunately, the performance of the aircraft at this time is not satisfactory, especially in the case of increasing weight, the aircraft has reached 4.7 tons, which makes the am-35 engine specially developed for high-altitude flight overburdened.

After emergency modification, the aircraft adopted a modified 1550 horsepower am-38 engine and reduced the number of pilots to one. In this way, it finally barely met the performance requirements. The initial production model, named IL-2, was equipped to the fourth ground air attack regiment.

There are still many problems to be solved for the flying tank behind. This is only the original model.

Now, after receiving the order, the air regiment transferred from the airport immediately took off.

These days, they have been studying how to attack Brest fortress. Every strategic place and every solid fortification in Brest fortress are their research goals. They are full of confidence.

However, before taking off, they received a new order to find a terrible cannon hidden behind Brest fortress and destroy it. This cannon is at least 406!

Captain Walisi took off first. The engine in front of him emitted black smoke. The fighter plane taxied on the runway until it reached the end of the runway. He pulled it up and the fighter plane rose slowly with a slope.

Although the new engine is installed, the mobility of this kind of aircraft is still very poor. Before flying this kind of aircraft, they all flew two winged polikapov aircraft. That kind of aircraft is flexible. Compared with the two, it's just like cement in flight. It's too difficult to fly.

Any action should be careful, because the engine power is insufficient, accidents often occur, and what's more terrible is all kinds of mechanical faults. There are always some inexplicable problems in this newly equipped aircraft.

Climbing to about 500 meters, he turned his head and looked back. The subsequent planes were slowly taking off. Now, they were going to attack!

At this time, they did not know that their take-off had been seen by the German agents ambushed at the airport. Almost when he just skidded onto the runway, the German opposite took off.

They are all the same fw190, the most advanced fighter! Under the nose, the 40mm bofoss machine gun glittered.

The pilot, Colonel Werner merders, sat in his cockpit and looked at the eastern sky. He knew that the battle was about to begin.

As a veteran pilot, Werner's most brilliant battle was in Spain. At that time, he fought with Soviet planes. Yi-15 and yi-16 were not his opponents.

But when he came back from Spain, his record did not rise much, because he had rich experience in the sky over Spain. After returning, he became an instructor of the aviation school to teach a group of rookies in air combat, which made him very depressed. He also wanted to show his skills on the battlefield like other pilots.

He has made numerous reports, but they all sink into the sea. In this way, watching the end of the battle on the west line, he finally had the opportunity to transfer out of the aviation school and serve as the head of an aviation regiment on the east line.

His landline has also become the latest fw190. At this time, BF109 is almost on the verge of shutdown. Messeschmidt is said to produce newer jets.

After entering the aviation regiment, he suddenly understood his experience in the aviation school. Germany needs trumps and pilots like him. However, it also needs experienced pilots to teach by example and lead to the emergence of more trumps.

In his aviation regiment, there are five or six students he has taught, all of whom have shot down more than five. When the pilot tells how to achieve results according to his training, Werner knows that his efforts are meaningful.

Now, he has to strictly carry out orders.

If he could, he could lead the team to fly over and destroy the other side's aircraft on the ground. However, the superior issued a dead order. The air battle could only break out in his own airspace, and those downed fighters could only land in his own territory.

At this time, he was no longer the young man who only knew war. He knew more about the political considerations of his superiors. It was just a border friction, not a war of life and death. The war of invasion against the Soviet Union had not yet begun. After his own side, there were some battles.

Soon, bright spots appeared in his vision. Sure enough, the other party's height was very low. He planned to enter directly at ultra-low altitude!

"Attention, find the target, three o'clock, prepare to dive and fire after the other party passes our fortress!"

They can't enter over the fortress, which is the combat area of ground anti-aircraft guns. They should avoid being hit by mistake.

They can only wait behind the fortress.

The IL-2 fighter force did not pass over the fortress, but circled around and passed through the swamp in the south of the fortress. Just this action made Werner admire the wisdom of the other commander.

The northern part of the fortress is forest, where anti-aircraft guns can also be arranged. However, the southern part of the fortress is swamp, so it can't be arranged there.

This was Walisi's consideration. Even if he wanted to bomb the fortress, he didn't intend to go straight to the anus from the East, but also from the swamp in the south to the back of the fortress.

Almost all the anti-aircraft guns on the fortress are arranged in the East. Therefore, it is easiest for your side to sneak attack from the west, and the loss is small.

Now, they are not going to bomb the fortress, but to find the terrible cannon behind!

However, just after flying over the fortress, terrible fighters swooped down in the sky and clouds!
