Chapter 1155
“”Let me see what quality the Russian bear’s pilots are like!”
In the air, a silver-winged squadron rushed into the air battlefield from the side.
The squadron was not large, with only six fighters in total.
After they entered the battlefield, they formed teams of two, with the leader and the wingman cooperating with each other, one responsible for attacking and the other for covering.
With their exquisite coordination and outstanding performance, the Soviet fighters were shot down one after another.
The Soviet air fleet soon noticed the German army.
Because the wings of the German squadron were engraved with stars, this squadron was also called the Silver Star Killer!
Since the air force was born not very long ago, the air forces of various countries do not have a unified standard.
After seeing these stars, the Soviet fighter pilots did not think that each of these stars represented a record!
The most dazzling fighter on the battlefield, the one with the most stars, was driven by… The man looking at her is none other than Erich Hartmann, the ace pilot of the Third Reich Air Force!
Hartmann joined the Air Force in 1926 and took off for combat for the first time in 1927.
So far, in more than three years of fighting, he has achieved a brilliant record of shooting down 77 enemy planes.
Since the Second World War in this time and space started more than ten years earlier than in history, the air forces of various countries are generally weaker than later ones. Therefore, air battles are often small in scale and end quickly.
Hartmann’s main achievements were made in the Battle of Gallic and the Battle of North America.
In the Battle of Gallic, the air forces of the two major powers, Gaul and the British Empire, gathered over the Benelux countries.
In order to cover the attacking troops on the ground, the Empire invested heavily in air battles to compete for air supremacy.
Thousands of fighters on both sides The two Allied planes engaged in a very fierce battle over the Benelux region.
However, due to the huge gap in the performance of the two sides’ fighter planes, the Gallic and British allied forces were quickly defeated.
After being defeated by the German army, the remaining Allied pilots did not dare to take off to fight, because in their view, this was simply a massacre.
The Gallic Campaign lasted less than a month, and the air battle between the two sides lasted even shorter, only about eleven days.
However, in this limited time, Hartmann achieved the brilliant result of shooting down 37 fighter planes.
In the subsequent British-Sun Battle, he achieved another result of 12 fighter planes. During the
North American Campaign, the scale of the German Air Force’s participation in the war was not large. Before the large-scale counterattack began, the air force participating in the North American operations was mainly a small part of the Air Force and a large number of naval aviation.
In this case, Hartmann Mann and his comrades did not join the battle until the end of 1929. Less than three months after they joined the war, the war was over.
But even so, they still achieved outstanding results of more than 20 fighter planes.
According to Hartmann’s super high efficiency, if he was given enough time and opportunity, his record would have exceeded 100 long ago, making him the first pilot in human history to shoot down more than three digits of enemy planes!
However, as wars in various places ended one after another, it became more and more difficult to continue to refresh the record.
In this case, if he wanted to break the record of 100 fighter planes, he had to seize the opportunity and shoot down as many enemy planes as possible in this Soviet-German War!
Due to the excessive number of fighter planes shot down, Hartmann’s plane was almost full of stars.
In this case, his plane looked particularly dazzling among the German fighter planes, and Soviet pilots could often spot him at a glance and lock him!
After participating in the battle, Hartmann and his wingman had been attacked by several waves of enemy forces in a short period of time.
Among them were some ace pilots of the Soviet Army!
If it were an ordinary pilot, he would have been shot down long ago under such repeated attacks.
But Hartmann was highly skilled. He always paid attention to the situation on the battlefield and was careful to guard against the enemy’s attacks.
Not only that, after the enemy took the initiative to attack, Hartmann could immediately lock on the enemy and launch a counterattack.
Under his operation, the BF-109 he sat in was like a silver-white elf, with a graceful and agile dance, spinning and jumping in the dense rain of bullets from the enemy, avoiding fatal attacks again and again!
“This guy is simply not a human being!”
Seeing Hartmann’s performance, his companions sighed.
Even though they had fought side by side many times, every time they saw the other party flying a fighter plane and dancing on the edge of a knife, they would always be deeply shocked!
They were not the only ones who were shocked!
The commander of the Soviet army had long discovered this German fighter plane, which was completely different in color from other fighter planes.
A strange-looking plane suddenly appeared in the uniform paint, which naturally aroused his vigilance.
So he sent several groups of fighter planes to intercept, hoping to shoot down this strange plane.
However, his wish was soon dashed!
Not only did the fighter plane he sent fail to complete the mission, but it also… And was killed by the enemy.
After watching the silver German fighter plane kill its own fighter plane with all kinds of incredible and amazing operations.
The Soviet commander realized that they might have encountered the German super ace!
There are many such aces on the battlefield!
Participating in battles earlier and having more combat experience allowed the German army to have a large number of experienced ace pilots.
Goering fully tapped the potential of these ace pilots. He took these ace pilots as the core and built a combat team around them.
Let these ace pilots give full play to their talents!
At the beginning of the battle, the German army began to attack the Soviet Union in small teams.���The tight formation launched an attack.
The modern air force was formed very recently, and no country has a complete air combat tactics and system.
In the era of the old-fashioned biplane propeller aircraft in World War I, the tactics were relatively simple because the aircraft was slow and had a poor load capacity.
However, with the rapid development of engine technology, the weight, speed, range and payload of fighter planes have been greatly improved.
The previous tactics are obviously no longer suitable for the times.
The bear, who is living in Eastern Europe, has been under blockade for many years, so he doesn’t know much about the military changes in the air force.
Although they have tried their best to develop excellent fighter planes, their air force’s supporting system is very poorly established.
This caused their tactics to lag behind the German army. The tight formation of the Soviet army soon could not be maintained under the tearing and attack of the German army’s flexible and mobile group formation.
