Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated

Chapter 187 Spitfire Fighter and Sky Train

Super Marlin Spitfire is a piston fighter developed by the British during World War II. Regardless of reputation or combat effectiveness, they are the first echelon in the current European battlefield.

 She was designed with a single-wing structure, all-metal load-bearing skin, a riveted fuselage, retractable landing gear, variable torque propellers and flap devices.

In the air battle over Britain, it fought back and forth with the Bf-109, Santoku's main aircraft, and was even slightly better in terms of horizontal mobility and firepower.

Although the speed may be slightly worse than Santoku's fighter, the Japanese's Lu Hang can only eat dust behind her butt.

When the pilots of both sides have the same driving skills, the paper data of the Big Jet 9 completely beat the Japanese's Type 97, Type 1 Falcon, and Type 2 Zhongkui.

And her stability is better, which can greatly reduce the pilot's burden, which is very advantageous in combat.

Due to the relatively low wing load, when fighting the enemy, you can use the high-speed approach and hit-and-run fighting tactics to seize air superiority through the advantage of good horizontal maneuverability.

 The empty weight of the Big Jet Nine is 2960 kg and it uses a 12-cylinder Rolls-Royce Merlin 61 engine.

 The top speed at sea level is 493 kilometers/hour, the maximum speed is 650 kilometers/hour, and the practical ceiling is 11,500 meters.

Weapons are two 20mm Hispano MK.II machine guns and four 7.7mm Browning machine guns.

In addition, it can also mount two AN-M57 aerial bombs with a bomb weight of 119.45 kg and a charge equivalent of 57.6 kg of TNT.

 Originally, the Big Pen 9 can carry 16 Oerlikon air-launched rockets. This weapon weighs 12.84 kilograms and has a charge equivalent of 1.6 kilograms of TNT.

 It’s a pity that Huanghe’s research progress was not enough, resulting in the rocket being swallowed by the system.

 But even if one anti-ground weapon is missing, aerial bombs, machine guns and machine guns alone are enough, and the threat to ground units is also high.

　　——

Different from Huang He who simply looked at the appearance of the Spitfire, the Director was more concerned about the aerodynamic layout of his new partner. He put his hand on the wing and felt all the way to the wing root.

 A fighter jet with excellent aerodynamic appearance and powerful combat effectiveness, anyone can’t help but praise it.

“It is indeed the most advanced fighter jet in the United Kingdom. I heard that she shined brilliantly in the air battle over Britain, and she is not far behind compared to Santoku’s aircraft.”

 Suddenly, the director saw several stars under the cockpit.

This discovery made him widen his eyes, as if he had discovered a new continent, and then he ran as fast as possible to the vicinity of several other Spitfires.

“Oh my god, these fighter jets have a record of shooting down. The pilot named Wang Hai actually killed nine enemy planes. I didn’t expect that there was an ace among the first batch of pilots of our Eighth Route Army!”

“And there’s more than one of them, among all the comrades, they all started with at least two kills!”

Looking at the director with stars in his eyes, Huang He wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He was afraid that Lao Zeng would get to the bottom of it. Before communicating with the combat hero, he would not know what identity the system assigned to him.

 Luckily, the director's attention was completely attracted by these Spitfires at this time. He touched left and right, as if trying to remember all the details in his mind.

“But having said that, this plane is really good-looking. It’s completely different from the British products I’ve come across before.”

 Huang He nodded in agreement. After thinking for a moment, he said in advance the very classic words of later generations.

“There are a total of eight battles worth of British weapons, the Spitfire alone has eighty battles, and the remaining weapons and equipment have a total of seventy-two battles.”

As soon as these words came out, the director was stunned for a few seconds, and then he laughed so hard that he couldn't stand upright.

 Dai Ying is really talented in how to make weapons and equipment look ugly.

This strange skill had its beginnings during World War I, became out of control during World War II, and reached its peak after the end of the world war.

Let’s talk about our old friend Lewis machine gun first. This thing is obviously a light machine gun. But from the appearance point of view, it looks no different from a recoilless gun.

Let’s not talk about its performance. In terms of appearance alone, it is definitely on the same level as Shaosha in my mind.

Furthermore, there is the flying saucer helmet that military fans often talk about. Its flat shape makes flying shrapnel easily bounced away. Its good anti-elastic properties are very suitable for the trench confrontation combat environment of World War I.

But the shape of this helmet is really like an ancient British farmer's hat. Even Dai Ying himself calls it a farmer's helmet.

 The last one is the brass knuckle knife. This dagger is somewhat unpopular.

 After it was issued to the troops as a melee equipment, many soldiers questioned the significance of this knife as a weapon. One colonel even believed that the use of such nondescript gadgets was completely inconsistent with the status of a British soldier.

 After World War I, it’s time for World War II. At this time, the Sten submachine gun has to be mentioned.

During the Kirkuk retreat, in order not to be driven into the sea by Sandoku's army, the soldiers leading the British lost a lot of light weapons. They wished they could leave their underpants on the beach.

The people came back, but the war guys lost everything, so they rushed to make a simple and cheap Sten.

 As for the appearance of this submachine gun, we can summarize it in one sentence. Why can your water pipe fire bullets?

"Okay! You kid knows how to make random comments all day long. The last time I saw your brigade commander, he told me that you like breast milk. I didn't understand what it meant at the time, but now I understand."

“Look at their airplanes, how wonderful they are! If we can learn their design concepts, we won’t have to worry about them in the next few decades. The legacy of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets is truly well-deserved.”

 As soon as these words came out, the corners of Huang He's mouth twitched crazily.

As a time traveler who came back from later generations, those ingenious aircraft built by Dai Ying are deeply memorable.

 After the end of World War II, all major powers are scrambling to develop a new generation of fighter jets.

As a permanent member of the Security Council, Daiying is naturally not to be left behind. Next, please be mentally prepared and let you see what a starry sky-level aircraft is.

 The first one to bear the brunt is the first big brother, the Victor medium-range strategic bomber. Because she adopts a unique crescent-shaped wing and a high horizontal tail layout, the four engines are installed at the wing roots and use both side wing roots for air intake.

 From the front, this looks like an embarrassed face with a frown on her face, as if someone owes her a lot of bombs.

Compared with the B47 and Figure 16 of the same period, it is really much uglier.

 The next one is even more heavyweight, and can be called the Fuso among early warning aircraft. Before many people saw her, they thought that illegal construction could be done without an extra plane.

 Her name is Hunter. Because it was developed based on a passenger aircraft, it has inherent deficiencies.

 In order to make her performance meet the standard, the designers installed two large radomes on the nose and tail of the aircraft and installed early warning radars.     This makes her nose look like Squidward's and the tail of the plane looks like it has a big tumor. He is very ugly and full of flaws at first glance.

Next is the Gannet reconnaissance aircraft. This one seems to be designed by the French. The wings can be folded in three sections. In addition, there is a huge radome on the belly of the aircraft, which looks like a pregnant woman who is ten months pregnant.

However, her performance is not bad. She is the world's first carrier-based anti-submarine aircraft that uses a twin-shaft turboprop engine and has dual functions of "discovery" and "hunting".

There is even great potential for subsequent upgrades, including extended models such as early warning aircraft, electronic countermeasures aircraft, and transport aircraft.

The last one is the only supersonic fighter developed by Daiying and put into production. Her name is Lightning, and she is a twin-engine, single-seat, all-weather fighter.

Her biggest design feature is the engines stacked together vertically. It can only be said that the designer is very original. After using two engines in parallel, there is no enough space in the machine to install a large fuel tank.

But the Royal Air Force suffered enough from the broken legs and had requirements on the range. In the end, in order to meet the standards, they had to build a large conformal fuel tank under the belly of the aircraft.

Different from the thin and light body of the contemporary MiG-21, the Lightning fighter looks like a middle-aged man with a big belly, giving people a bulky feel.

However, the aircraft during World War II were very good and did not have any unconventional designs in terms of shape.

　　——

A few minutes later, the director finished recording the basic data of the Spitfire, and he was going to take Huang He to have a chat with the combat heroes.

"Old Zeng, you go over first. I want to see these fighter jets again. You know the Shan Wenbao who came with me, his major is aircraft power engineering."

“Originally, he was going to come with me today, but something happened and he couldn’t come. He asked me to help bring some data back, and I guess he will try to reverse engineer it next.”

 After hearing this, the director turned around and left without thinking much.

 Having the opportunity to be alone, Huang He immediately concentrated on opening up the system in his mind. The Air Force is very important to the army, and every second counts.

 After seeing the next decision, he clenched his fists in disappointment. This time, not many changes occurred. The effect is similar to that in the game, except that there are more transport planes.

“Purchasing fighter aircraft: Our Air Force urgently needs modern fighter aircraft to deal with threats from foreign enemies. Since our industrial capabilities are not yet able to produce aircraft, we must find ways to do so from other aspects.

 Unlocking time: 48 days

Effect: We will obtain 100 old British fighter jets (trainer version) and 25 transport aircraft, and allow the arsenal in the system to produce ammunition and bombs for existing fighters. "

 In other words, the effect of this decision is pretty good.

 One hundred training aircraft are a complete help in times of need for the current border area.

 Huang He is currently discussing something with his bosses. He is planning to recall comrades who are studying at the SHC aviation school. According to the agreement between the two parties, there were a total of 43 people there at this time.

 In the aviation school, they are divided into two classes.

In addition to flying courses, comrades in the flying class also learn flight principles, aircraft structure, engine principles and structures, aerial navigation, aerial shooting, communications, bombing, as well as mechanical maintenance and meteorology courses.

Another group of students in the mechanical class focus on learning aircraft, engine principles and structures, as well as maintenance and operation techniques. They also take minor courses in flight, communications, navigation, shooting, bombing and photography, and master carpentry, welding and other basic maintenance-related skills. Knowledge.

 Although the educational level of these comrades is generally not high, they study very hard.

 In the absence of printed textbooks and handouts, they listened and took notes in class.

 We formed several mutual aid groups after class, and would gather together to organize notes whenever we had free time. Because of my poor foundation, sometimes I have to sort it out four or five times before I can get a complete set of information.

Even in this difficult environment, comrades used their collective wisdom to slowly master the theoretical knowledge they learned. After a period of study, his grades even surpassed those of local students.

At present, this group of comrades has not been reduced due to training accidents. Rather than re-selecting some educated soldiers in the border area, it is a wiser choice to call them back.

In the original world line, after the Big Beard and Big Beard started the war, SHC thought that Mao Zi was unreliable and immediately took refuge with Bald Head.

These students were not only forced to leave the aviation school, but were also imprisoned.

 At this point in time, the united front is still nominally solid. The students can still be brought back at some cost. After all, weapons can be produced, but pilots are difficult to train.

What's more, that shabby aviation school only has 30 biplanes, and our border area now has a full 106!

Speaking of biplanes, this time the system was given the Fighter Fighter MK2, which was the last biplane fighter developed by Dai Ying.

This aircraft originally did not have a trainer model, and it has obviously been systematically modified.

 In a sense, the decline of the British aviation industry is foreshadowed.

After World War I, the Gallic Army was very rigid in its army tactics, and by World War II they were still using trenches and squatting.

Daiying also encountered the same problem. Their basic aviation research and design ideas were very conservative. It can be said that it lags behind rising stars such as Chouguo and Sandezi in all aspects, and has lost its status as the number one industrial country.

While others were researching various monoplane fighters, Dai Ying still stubbornly insisted on developing biplane fighters.

But because of this, the Fighter fighter is definitely the best among the two wings. Even if you fight against the single-winged 96 ship, you can still face it head-on.

 She uses an all-metal fuselage, a closed cockpit, and is equipped with four 7.7 mm Browning machine guns. The top speed reaches 414 kilometers per hour and it has excellent hovering ability.

Before the war, Guo Preserved also introduced 40 aircraft. Unfortunately, due to unfamiliarity with the structure, four of them had accidents during taxiing and takeoff after the first assembly.

 But these 36 Fighters killed 48 Japanese aircraft during the entire Anti-Japanese War. There was even an astonishing score of 2:7, and three pilots won the title of ace with her.

The 25 transport racks are even more ruthless. During World War II, Britain and China reached an aid agreement, so Britain did not develop its own military transport aircraft.

 So the system gave the C-47 transport plane and the sky train.

 This transport aircraft can carry 28 people and has a range of 2,600 kilometers.

In the military, the C-47 can transport supplies, soldiers, airborne paratroopers, and combat supplies. It can perform most tasks except fighter jets and bombers.

She also participated in the famous Operation Normandy and Operation Market Garden, and also played a role in the Anti-Japanese War. The Hump route relied on these transport aircraft.
