Idle game leads to another world

Chapter 1298: Fighting on the battlefield and taking back the center (5)

Space fighters cannot fly into the atmosphere. The thrust provided by their engines is too small. The wings are only used as mounting platforms for weapons and equipment and cannot provide effective lift. They cannot fly at all.

What's more, the space fighter has not been insulated. Even if a heat shield is installed, it will still be burned and disintegrated by the high temperature when it falls into the atmosphere.

Similarly, aircraft in the atmosphere cannot enter the void. The higher the altitude, the thinner the air, and the lower the lift the wings can provide. The engines will also crash due to lack of oxygen, and aircraft in the atmosphere have no ability to target deadly and invisible threats. No protection against cosmic rays and radiation is required, and forcing oneself up there is courting death.

For the military, this is not a big problem, because according to past war experience, there is no need to enter the atmosphere. Most of the time, I move the fleet here. In order to prevent everything on their own from being destroyed, the other party basically I will choose to vote.

However, small demand does not mean that there is no need. The military has still prepared aircraft that can perform landing operations.

That's the modified shuttle.

Compared with fighter planes, shuttles are moderately versatile. They can pull people and cargo, and can also be equipped with machine guns and ion beams for use as heavy weapons. The most important thing is that this thing can not only freely travel between voids and gravity environments, but can even It can hover in the air, but the performance gap is obvious compared with the previous two.

Due to its convenience, most warships will prepare one or two. They are not used in daily battles. They are also excellent for use as transportation boats or transporting some supplies.

When executing the descent operation, the so-called air power support mainly comes from assault landing ships, shuttle aircraft and orbital bombing.

As long as a heat shield is simply installed, the shuttle can directly enter the atmosphere alone. After adding weapons, it can be used as an attack aircraft to provide close-ground air support.

It's just that the enemies in orbit haven't been cleared yet. In order to prevent its army from being treated as a stupid blaster, the Red Maple Republic naturally sent a shuttle to come down to intercept.

As a result, an air battle broke out with an extremely huge span from an altitude of more than 30,000 meters to an altitude of less than 3,000 meters.

How could such a good thing be missing from Li Chengqi?

I must attack in the form of the Manta Ray!

Li Chengqi doesn't care at all how the fight goes on the ground, I'm just here to fight in the air.

In the cockpit, the invisible man pressed the switches one after another, the roaring engine roared, and the altitude data on the instrument was rising rapidly.

"Actually, you can use Silver Tornado to support operations on the ground."

Li Chengqi's voice came from the speaker below the cockpit:

"I see there is quite a lack of heavy weapons down there."

Hall grabbed the armrest of the seat tightly and shook his head slightly:

"I have never fought in a gravity environment, and I have never conducted any simulation of flying a Silver Cyclone in a gravity environment. It would be a disservice."

What is said is that Hall is a pilot, not a driver, and the two cannot be completely equated.

It is true that the Silver Cyclone is a ground-based machine, but the magic mecha itself can only be most effective in the void, and a tank is more suitable on the ground.

Hall knew very well that flying in a gravity environment was different from flying in the void, but she had never received training in flying in a gravity environment.

Seeing that the Manta was preparing to attack, Hall immediately jumped up and expressed that he wanted to take a look.

That is quite easy to learn.

"Okay, anyway, it's impossible to make too many maneuvers when flying in the atmosphere. Sit tight."

Li Chengqi's maneuvers in flying the aircraft were completely based on the game, and he did not consider whether the people inside would die or not. However, it is true that maneuvering in the atmosphere is two different things from maneuvering in the void, and air resistance will not spare you.

To be honest, Li Chengqi was used to flying a Lionfish to fight in the void, but now it was particularly awkward to drive the Manta in a gravity environment.

I feel that the flight joystick is too heavy and the acceleration is too slow, especially in the climbing state.

As mentioned earlier, the Shuttle Federation's shuttle was intercepted by the Red Maple Republic's shuttle on its way down, which resulted in a huge span of combat areas between the two sides.

The Manta took off from the Swan and had to climb for a long time to reach the battlefield. Anyone who has a certain understanding of flight knows that the aircraft is most vulnerable to attack when it is climbing.

Even if Li Chengqi is driving the Manta, he needs to be very careful and always adjust his perspective to look above his head, otherwise he can easily be turned into a fireball on the spot.

Hall saw on the altimeter that Li Chengqi began to fly levelly when he climbed to about 6,000 meters. The speed was obviously far from stalling and he could continue to climb.

She couldn't understand, so she asked.

"Seduce me and see if anyone comes to chase me."

When flying within the atmosphere, and both sides only have weapons within visual distance such as cannons and ion beams, altitude will be a great advantage.

In the final analysis, air combat is just an energy battle. When you climb, the kinetic energy of your engine will be converted into altitude potential energy, and when you dive, the altitude potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy.

Even with a magic engine like the Manta Ray, its speed will naturally decrease after a period of climbing, making it a slow-moving target for the enemies above.

If he was attacked by a dive at this time, even if Li Chengqi immediately made evasive movements, it would be difficult to avoid the enemy's shells, so he chose to fly levelly at a position of 6,000 meters to recover his speed and see if anyone came to catch him. he.

This is the so-called fishing law enforcement. Li Chengqi has often used this trick to bully novices in the game before.

After a few simple explanations, Hall immediately heard the radar beeping, and the red warning light began to flash in the cockpit.

"Sure enough, they are still here. The pilots of the Red Maple Republic only have this ability."

Then the Manta Ray suddenly rolled and turned downwards, drawing a C-shaped trajectory here.

At that moment, Hall saw engine light flying past the side of the Manta, along with tracers and ion beams.

The variable wing of the Manta Ray brings a binary vector propulsion effect, which is very advantageous in climbing and diving. In addition, Li Chengqi deliberately retained speed when climbing, and the Manta Ray quickly completed the flight in the sky. A big pirouette.

Normally, after a dive attack, regardless of whether it is hit or not, one should use the speed during the dive to accelerate away, but the pilot of the Red Maple Republic chose to turn around.

Indeed, when the speed is fast, the rotation speed is of course also fast, but in this process a large amount of kinetic energy converted from high potential energy will be wasted.

"He really still wants to get into dog fighting, so what kind of teaching materials did these pilots read?"

Li Chengqi complained that the Red Maple Republic's shuttle was still circling, but at this time it had entered the Manta's firing line.

Aiming slightly for most of his body, Hall felt his feet shake. The cannon and ion beam were fired at the same time. The shuttle's shield was defeated, its wings were torn, and it quickly spun down.

Hall didn't dare to speak, because the textbook she learned was that dog fighting between fighter planes was the most effective...
