There is only one chance.

On the one hand, after this bombing, the Americans will certainly raise their attention and deploy night fighters and radar. If their own side wants to easily drill over American territory again, it will be dangerous.

On the other hand, if the bombing is not successful, the Americans will certainly transfer the base and make it more secret, making it more difficult for their bombers to reach. For example, if they are placed in the middle of the United States or even in Alaska, their bombers will be out of reach.

This bombing, decisive and efficient, must also be a success.

"As long as the ground personnel cooperate in place, we have absolutely no problem." After hearing what Bessel said, pilot Antonio said.

What is most important in transcontinental flight? Navigation, of course! In order to carry out these bombing missions, junker-390 has various advanced navigation equipment.

For example, the inertial gyroscope transplanted from the V-2 missile can accurately track the flight trajectory of the aircraft, so as to mark the position of the aircraft on the aeronautical chart. However, the mechanical gyro has errors. With the accumulation of time, the errors will become larger and larger. Only the laser gyro can achieve high precision.

Therefore, the inertial gyro should be constantly corrected during navigation. If it is at night, it can be corrected with the help of starlight. During the day, it can be corrected with the help of the following known offshore islands.

Antonio is the navigator of Bessel and the navigator of the whole formation. His task is quite heavy. He knows that it is not enough to rely only on inertial gyro and navigation point correction.

At this time, the cooperation of ground personnel is more important.

Because Germany's radio navigation technology has also developed and matured. If the ground personnel have radio navigation equipment and transmit navigation information towards the flight direction of the bomber, it is easy to give the aircraft correct guidance.

The superposition of various means is enough to ensure that the aircraft can fly in the right direction. As for the bombing effect, it depends on its own advanced high-altitude bomb dropping equipment.

Antonio is confident.

"Also, before carrying out the task, the most important thing for us is to ensure sufficient rest, cultivate enough spirit and wait for the arrival of orders!" Bescher said.

He spoke very seriously, but everyone present smiled. In fact, the command sounded very simple, but it was not easy to implement, because at this time, everyone was so excited that they couldn't sleep at all.

Even if they close their eyes, they can see pictures in their minds. For example, Antonio has been thinking about the navigation problem in the middle of the way. Where is the most appropriate navigation point? After entering the land of the United States, it is already night. Which city along the way should be used as the navigation point, and errors should be prevented.

Everyone has their own task assignment, and they are all thinking.

At the same time, the ground crew in the base are busy.

To carry out such an intercontinental bombing mission, we must ensure that the aircraft is in good condition, and all kinds of maintenance work must be in place. Then we fill it with fuel and hang the bomb. They did it meticulously for six hours before they completed the task of maintenance and supply.

After that, it's waiting.

The wait was not long. After another four hours, the order to take off came.

Jumping up from his bed, a crew quickly put on their flight equipment and gathered in high spirits.

In front of them was Richthofen, commander-in-chief of the German air force. The veteran said little but was full of power: "the United States, shamelessly declared war on us. They don't want to see us unify Europe. Now, we must let the Americans know the consequences of declaring war on us. The war will burn in the United States! Let's go! "

set out!

Bessel took his crew and ran to the front junker-390 bomber. The large bomber went in from the passage next to the landing gear in the belly.

Antonio, the navigator, climbed to the lower end of the nose, where he was located, and he was also a bomber.

The plane is very tall. When you sit in the cabin, it is as high as a second floor. From the cabin glass, you can see the wings and engines on both sides.

There are three engines on each side, and the whole aircraft shows a violent aesthetics. Like the Dora cannon, only the third empire can make this war machine!

"Start the engine." Bescher said.

Now, German aircraft have basically popularized electric starting without manually rotating the propeller. When the pilot is in the cabin, press the button, and the No. 1 engine on the left emits a black smoke. After shaking violently for a minute, the black smoke fades and the engine is started!

Next, there is No. 2 engine on the right.

It took ten minutes to start the six engines. After each engine started smoothly, the random mechanic checked that the instrument data of each engine were normal and met the takeoff requirements.

"Bomber 901, request to take off." On the radio, Bessel shouted to the tower.

"You can take off. Have a nice trip." The sound of the tower came from the headset.

For German pilots, it was just an intercontinental journey.

On Bessel's side, the pilot pulled the accelerator to the back, and the six engines roared even louder. Each engine burst out with a maximum power of 2500 horsepower and a huge bomber of 75 tons. As the brake was released, it skidded on the runway.

At this time, it was fully loaded, and the bomber took off very heavy. Almost at the end of the runway, the bomber reluctantly pulled up and climbed slowly with a small climbing line.

Behind them, the four remaining bombers were also taking off one after another. When the last bomber was pulled up, the photographer pressed the shutter and included the five bombers in the picture.

This is a precious moment that will go down in history forever. Germany has officially begun to fight the United States! Of course, this is a complete secret. No one knows and no one will admit it. At the British air force base, German bombers officially began flying.

At this time, no one knows that at the other end of the earth, the colleagues of the German bomber force are also doing the same action. However, compared with their German counterparts, the take-off of their American counterparts is so thrilling.

When the equipment is insufficient, I have to fight with my life. Since I joined the army, I can't be afraid of danger! Even if a bomber takes off from an aircraft carrier, try it!
