Chapter 120 Chen Yanlong's Air Cavalry Conception

"I will be able to make a decision. If he is really so useless then, I will replace him immediately!"

After Keselin finished speaking, Chen Yanlong replied calmly.

"Okay! I understand! Head of State!"

Keselin responded in a disappointed tone.

"Don't be so shameless. The most important thing for you now is to train me a large number of qualified pilots as soon as possible to defend the sky of our empire! Without air supremacy, we will lose this war! And Gorene has been removed from all positions by me and is being pursued! So I am now considering who the new Air Force Commander will give you to be better! I hope you can do some results and see if you are the candidate I need!"

Hearing the other party's discouraged tone, Chen Yanlong immediately used his scheming to encourage Keselin.

"Yes! Head of State! Head of Victory!"

After hearing this, Keseling really replied loudly with a spirit of injecting chicken blood.

"Work hard! I won't treat your Keselin badly!"

Chen Yanlong encouraged again in an inspiring tone.

"Yes! Head of State! Head of Victory!"

Keselin replied excitedly again.

Then the two of them hung up the phone without chatting for a few more words.

Afterwards, Chen Yanlong quickly finished his breakfast, and then called Dunitz, saying that he would go to his place to see the training of those carrier-based aircraft.

Then he was under the escort of Rattenhuber and a large group of guards, and took the Arrado Ar232 transport plane and escorted by a large group of Fω-190A-6/R1 fighter jets to the secret training base in Denitz.

However, before the plane took off, he also told Garland that he wanted to form his own air cavalry unit, that is, to load soldiers with helicopters; to land in the enemy's occupied area and carry out a raid.

Because the effect and safety of this will be much more efficient than using airplane paratroopers; and the biggest advantage of helicopters is that they can hover at low altitudes and low speeds, and can take off and land vertically on small areas.

At the same time, helicopters also have ground attacks, landings, weapons transport, logistics support, battlefield rescue, inspection and patrols, etc.

The helicopters that Chen Yanlong wanted to produce were the Mi 12 carrier pigeon heavy helicopters developed and produced in the 1960s of the Soviet Union.

The aircraft can carry medium tanks and artillery, and is equipped with 4 4.78 MW engines, with a load capacity of 400 tons.

There is also the farthest American helicopter that flew in the 1960s, the oh-6 helicopter, which has a straight range of more than 3,000 kilometers.

And the world's first armed helicopter in the 1950s, which was modified from the H-13 helicopter, that is, an uncontrolled rocket, grenade launcher, machine gun and anti-tank gun were installed on the H-13 helicopter.

However, due to technical level, resource issues and scientific and technological personnel issues, even if Chen Yanlong now gives Sperer and others detailed design drawings and data; Sperer and all German arsenals and arms companies will take a lot of time to develop them before they can be gradually produced and manufactured.

Although the performance of the German Fa-223 Dragon helicopter in World War II was unparalleled at the time: its ceiling was more than 7,500 meters and could lift 75mm anti-tank guns, transport them from the valley to a 2,000-meter-high combat area, and transport ammunition and supplies to mountain troops.

At the same time, it can also lift the Fw190 fighter with a weight of 1,284 kilograms and fly more than 30,000 meters away with the engine.

But Chen Yanlong hopes to get more advanced helicopters to build his air cavalry battalion.

For example, he originally wanted to exchange for the AH-1 Cobra armed helicopter, AH-64 helicopter and Ka-50 helicopter; but because of the level of his mobile phone redemption system, he now has no way to exchange it for his troops and use it for training.

So when Chen Yanlong's redemption system was able to redeem other more advanced helicopters and armed helicopters, he could only order Sperer to mass-produce the Fa-223 Dragon helicopter so that he could have a helicopter to establish his air cavalry unit without using the redemption system.

However, while he issued the mass production of the Fa-223 Dragon helicopter, he also exchanged 100 carrier pigeon heavy helicopters, 100 oh-6 helicopters, and 100 H-13s converted into armed helicopters, as well as R-4 helicopters; so that Sperer could ask aircraft designers to conduct research and train pilots on different aircraft models to gain multiple flight experience.

However, Chen Yanlong's final decision at this moment was to let the air cavalry unit he was secretly establishing first, and the first type of helicopter used was the Fa-223 Dragon Helicopter.

The first reason for this decision is that the energy points for redeeming the Fa-223 Dragon Helicopter do not require too many energy points, and 5 energy points can be exchanged for one.

The second is that even if these helicopters are not redeemable for redemption systems, the German army now has the emergence and use of these helicopters, but they have not been mass-produced.

The third is of course to unify the model and facilitate the German army's logistics to maintain, repair and produce spare parts, etc.

In other words, if the weapons and equipment that Chen Yanlong exchanged in the future are to be used on a large scale, the first thing he needs to consider is uniform equipment replacement, logistics equipment and maintenance, and transportation.

Otherwise, even if Chen Yanlong exchanged the most powerful weapons and equipment in the world, and once there was no logistics to supplement it, it would be like the cheetah self-propelled anti-aircraft cannon he exchanged now; once he had used the ammunition and did not receive timely replenishment, it would be easy for the enemy to take advantage of the situation and fight back.

After talking to Garland about his conception of the air cavalry unit, he ordered the other party to form a new jet flight unit and quickly build his helicopter unit.

Because he no longer wants to use paratroopers, he directly uses a large number of helicopters to carry out airborne operations and rescue operations.

Garland also happily agreed to Chen Yanlong's request, but there was no way to strengthen the strength of their Luftwaffe; Garland and Michel were both excited and excited to do it immediately.

Because they love their air force, they work so passionately.

So after Chen Yanlong finished explaining to Garland, he took the Aladdo Ar232 transport plane without any worries to the training base of the secret aircraft carrier-based aircraft in Denitz.

However, at this time, US President Roosevelt was strongly demanding that the US military industrial production companies make every effort to build aircraft carriers, and demanding that they rely on their strong shipbuilding industry and military industrial potential; before December 1943, they built at least 30 Casablanca-class aircraft carriers.

At the same time, the "Admeralti Islands" and "Boganville" must be built several months in advance before the start of the Sicily Battle and dispatched to Sicily to fight, rather than putting them in the Pacific War to fight against the Japanese army.

The reason is very simple, because the navy commanded by Ehausenwell and the Air Force were recently severely damaged by the German army commanded by Chen Yanlong.

So in order to avoid greater sacrifices from the US military sent to Africa, Roosevelt decided this way.

For him, he always advocated that the other party, Hitler, was the first to deal with Japan.

In addition to the Sablanca-class aircraft carriers that need to accelerate their manufacturing, the Borg-class aircraft carrier with a displacement of 15,000 tons; and the shipyard in Newport News started to build the famous Midway-class aircraft carrier in 1943, as well as the Sex-class aircraft carrier, and the Commentumsmen special aircraft carrier, as well as the shipyard.

In a word, President Roosevelt should defeat Germany and Japan as soon as possible, strive for the war to end soon, and avoid the loss of life.

As for the pilots of the US military, they continued to recruit from tens of thousands of flight enthusiasts and flight clubs.

Because these people who have flight experience can join the Navy and Air Force at any time, and can take off and land on aircraft carriers with a little training.

Chen Yanlong was still unaware of the order issued by President Roosevelt.

Because at the moment Roosevelt's order was issued, the history of the parallel world he was in had begun to gradually change.
