The air battle ignited instantly!
For a time, 1O Zero fighter jets, fighting against the Japanese meritorious fighter Type 97 carrier-based aircraft!
The huge roar of the propeller could be clearly heard by the Japanese troops hundreds of meters below.
Japan ~ Commander of the Second Fleet of the Navy, Major General Okinato said disdainfully: "Although our army's 97 carrier-based aircraft is not as famous as other countries, its combat effectiveness is definitely the world's first-class. Now that our 97 carrier-based aircraft has launched an attack, it is the absolute overlord of this sky. Any enemy aircraft can only be reduced to gray in front of it!"
The Japanese officers around him also agreed with this.
In addition to weather and other factors, three points are decisive in the air combat of fighter jets.
First, the number of fighter jets will have a great advantage.
After all, fighting alone is definitely not as good as attacking people. Even if the lion, as the king of the forest, encounters a group of wolves, it has to retreat;
Secondly, the performance of the fighter jet, the stronger its combat effectiveness is.
Just like the mainstream fighter jets of various countries during World War II, that is, the "propeller" type fighter jets, they must be far inferior to those of later generations of jet fighters.
The combat aircraft's armor, flexibility, degree, flight altitude and other performance determines the combat effectiveness of the fighter;
Third, the pilot's aircraft driving ability and flight combat tactics are also crucial points.
An excellent pilot has a huge role in air combat. Just like the ace pilots of countries around the world during World War II, under the same performance of fighter jets, it can easily shoot down several or even dozens of fighter jets.
At the same time, an advanced flight combat concept and tactics are also very important. For example, during the Battle of Shanghai, the flight squadron led by Gao Zhihang fought against the Japanese flight brigade. When the number of fighter jets and the performance of the aircraft were not as good as that of the Japanese aircraft, relying on extremely advanced flight tactics, they shot down nine Japanese fighter jets, causing a group of Japanese fighter jets to flee in panic.
These three factors determine the success or failure of an air battle!
At this moment, the reason why a group of Japanese soldiers is so confident is that they occupy the above three points of the number of aircraft, aircraft performance, and pilot qualities.
"Our army will win!"
Major General Okinawa, commander of the second fleet of the Japanese Navy, laughed.
"Our army cannot fail! My great Japanese Empire is invincible!"
Major General Ma Chi, the Japanese military brigade commander, said firmly.
As the air combat continued, fighter planes were shot down, engulfed by fire, and a huge thunder broke out when hitting the ground.
Whenever a fighter plane shot down and detonated, it immediately received the excitement of tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers!
"The first one!"
"The second one!"
~~~~~~
"The third plane!"
"Our army will win!"
"Ha ha!"
"The sixth one is already there!"
Although the night was darker, the Japanese troops below could not judge the flight and combat process with their naked eyes, but it did not affect the result of their seeing a fighter plane falling.
"Hahaha, although I don't know how many of our fighter planes have lost, most of the planes that I have shot down are enemy planes!"
"Yes, our big Japanese ~ the fighter jets of this empire are invincible!"
They firmly believe that the superiority of their 97 carrier-based aircraft will surely win the air battle.
At this moment, although hundreds of Japanese soldiers at the Chongming Base of the Japanese army were killed and injured, and many military facilities were greatly damaged, and fires were still burning, all the Japanese soldiers present cheered after seeing the fall of one plane.
They are excited and ecstatic!
"Yaxi!"
Major General Ma Chi, the brigade leader, couldn't help but smile and said, "My big Japanese~ The fighter jets of this empire are powerful! Any existence that dares to challenge it in the sky will be greatly feared because of being shot down again and again!"
The adjutant then agreed: "What the brigade commander said is very much. Any enemy plane fighting with our plane of the Japanese Empire will end up in deep despair! Hahaha!"
At this moment, a Japanese chief officer suddenly ran over in panic, sweating all over and looked horrified.
The brigade team looked like Ma Chi with frivolous eyebrows and was a little displeased. He said in a deep voice: "I'm so flustered, what's the point!"
At this moment, the Japanese magistrate was about to say something, but suddenly hesitated to his throat.
Seeing this, the brigade commander Xiang Ma Chi was even more displeased and said angrily: "Baga! I asked you to check the number of enemy planes falling. Why did you stop talking?
Let us tell us the news quickly and let the warriors of our empire listen to the news of victory together!”
At this moment, the Japanese chief officer said in horror: "Brig Commander, something is wrong! Our squadron went to verify the results. 12 aircraft have fallen, but they are all our 97 carrier-based aircraft!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the brigade team looked like Ma Chi was shocked!
The Japanese officers and soldiers around him also changed their faces and looked in disbelief!
At this moment, the brigade commander, Major General Ma Chi, did not care about etiquette, grabbed the arms of the Japanese chief officer with his hands and roared: "Say it again! What is the falling plane? It's all our army's planes? Tell me it's fake, are you lying to me, are you?"
Another Japanese colonel officer also said in shock: "This must be fake. The Empire's 97 carrier-based aircraft is a world-class fighter, the Empire's strongest fighter, and the overlord of the sky. How could it fail?"
The Japanese officers and soldiers around him obviously did not believe this result.
But after hearing the magistrate officer say it again a few times, everyone was shocked!
"The 12 planes that fell were all from my big Japanese ~ this empire!"
The sudden result is completely different from what they imagined that "the enemy will be defeated by one's own side."
For a moment, everyone seemed to have collapsed in their faith, and they all wailed!
"Baga! How is this possible? How could our army's fighter planes not be able to defeat the enemy's planes?"
Major General Ma Chi, the brigade leader, was very angry. He could not accept this result, nor was he willing to accept this result.
He could not understand why his plane was defeated so far. His plane had 36 aircraft, while his enemy planes had only 10 aircraft, and his plane had an absolute advantage in the number of fighter planes.
At the same time, our own aircraft performance and pilot qualities also have absolute advantages.
Under such circumstances, our side should have a big victory, but why is our side's fighter losing now?
Why?
why is that?
He can't understand!
The Japanese adjutant smiled bitterly and said, "Our fighter jets are obviously more than theirs, but why are all shot down our fighter jets? There is only one possibility. The performance of the enemy's fighter jets is far better than our 97 carrier-based aircraft, and the posture and tactical capabilities of the enemy pilots are also farther away from our pilots!"
During World War II, air-to-air combat had no missiles or sight range, and was completely close-range battles, so which side had the advantage of degree and maneuverability was destined to win.
In terms of degree and maneuverability, the Japanese Zero Fighter from 194o completely crushed the Japanese Type 97 carrier-based aircraft.
Not to mention the 97 carrier-based aircraft, it is the US aircraft. In the early days of World War II, its comprehensive performance was far inferior to that of the Japanese Zero fighter jets.
After the outbreak of the Pacific Battle, the Japanese Zero fighter jets overwhelmed the US fighter jets with their small turning radius, fast degree and long range, and began to dominate the Pacific battlefield.
The main reason is lightweight.
On the premise that the motor output power is the same, it is 30% to 45% lighter than the American fighter of the same class, and it is lighter;
On the contrary, it means that the power of the motivation is increased, degree, maneuverability and cruising distance are improved.
This also led to the fact that the Zero Style was so powerful in the early stages of the Pacific War of World War II!
However, in the middle and late stages of the war, the United States' aviation technology was rapidly improving and the power of the aviation engine was significantly improved.
High-performance fighters such as p-51 Mustang, F-4u Pirates, F-6F Hellcats are put into the battlefield in large quantities, and the advantages of Zero fighters are gradually lost.
The new aircraft developed by the US military can obtain the same or even better maneuverability as Zero Warfare, even if the body weight is twice as large as the Zero Warfare under the push of a high-power engine.
Moreover, the load capacity is large, it can be equipped with stronger firepower and thicker armor. Just like the American fighter jets in the late Pacific War, equipped with six to eight 12.7mm or 2omm aerial machine guns, and bullets shot from the thick armor to zero will be bounced off when they hit it. The Zero did not consider subsequent transformations during the initial development, so the development space was extremely small and excessively lightweight, resulting in weak firepower, sacrificing a large amount of armor with poor survivability, and not even a self-sealed fuel tank. It was awarded the title of "Flying Lighter" by the Allies.
At the end of the war, Zero fighter jets became the main type of suicide attack of the "Kamikaze Special Attack Team" and completely became artillery fire in air combat!
At this point, the Japanese Zero Fighter has forever withdrawn from the stage of history.
But those things happened in 1942-1943.
It is now the end of December 1938. During this period, even the Japanese 97 carrier-based aircraft could dominate the world, let alone the Japanese Zero fighter jets with far more performance.
At the end of World War II, the Japanese Zero fighter jets were artillery fire!
But in 1938, it was invincible!
It is a dominant existence that can easily crush the sky!
~~~~~~~~
As the air battle continued, Japanese 97 carrier-based aircraft were shot down, and the Japanese officers and soldiers were desperate!
The brigade leader, Major General Ma Chi, was also desperate!
Major General Okinawa, the commander of the Second Fleet, was also desperate!
By dawn, the air battle was over.
To be continued...
