Romanian Eagle

The smoke of gunpowder in Alexandria is still in the air, and there are people who are rescuing the wounded and cleaning up the rubble. It's just that more people are hiding now, and only soldiers in military uniforms are busy on the street.

Quick, carry these boxes of ammunition to that position over there.

A logistics officer is directing soldiers to carry ammunition to the area he has designated.

At this time, a roar above their heads caught their attention, and they saw a large group of familiar Hurricane fighter jets flying over their heads.

The noise generated by the huge roar did not make the British soldiers feel uncomfortable. They raised their hands one after another and cheered the fighter jets flying over their heads. The huge cheers overshadowed the roar of the engines.

That's horrible!

In the face of the Romanian raid before, many of them felt powerless. The airfield was attacked, the port was attacked, Alexander's air force was completely destroyed, the fleet was sunk four capital ships, and five more were damaged.

Such a result, how can the British officers and soldiers not feel aggrieved, how can they be reconciled.

Therefore, they will naturally give extremely high cheers to the appearance of their own fighters.

And this made Cunningham and Hawkins feel that their hard work was not in vain. After the hurricane fighter flew over, the morale of the soldiers obviously improved a lot.

Looks like this method works.

Lieutenant General Hawkins exclaimed.

As long as it's useful.

Cunningham finally looked better. The army has always been most afraid of lack of morale, and the previous attack made the morale of the soldiers of the British Empire low, and now it is much better.

Who would have thought that all this was caused by the fact that the airport could not fit in. The fighter jets that came to support from Cairo and Said filled up the Logeel airport, and Lieutenant Colonel Eric, who was in charge of the airport, reported his difficulty to the two.

But Cunningham had an idea, and the fighter planes that had been filled with fuel immediately went to the port to patrol in order to make room for them, and it seems that the effect is not bad.

Just as the two generals watched the cheers from the officers and soldiers in the naval port due to the arrival of the fighter jets, a harsh phone sounded, and an officer walked over quickly and took the phone.

Hello, this is the fleet headquarters.

The officer who heard the news from the microphone immediately changed his face. He put down the phone and ran to the two generals immediately.

Report, from the destroyer Oakwood ahead, that a group of Romanian aircraft has appeared in the sea 25 kilometers away from the port, and its number is no less than 260.

Cunningham, who heard the news, immediately ordered. Raise the air defense siren and get the officers and soldiers ready. Call Lieutenant Colonel Eric and have him dispatch all the planes immediately.

In less than two minutes, the piercing air defense alarm sounded, making all the British troops in the port change their faces. The fighter jet, which was still showing its heroic appearance at low altitude before, also began to climb hard, and its liquid-cooled V-12 engine even issued this roar.

A few minutes later, in the direction of the open sea, a black pressure brigade appeared in the sky. The top layer was the RH20T fighter. Although this high-altitude fighter was replaced with an air-cooled engine, its performance was still suitable for mid-to-high altitude operations.

In the lower layer is the HF201 fighter. The combat capability of this aircraft in the middle and lower layers makes all Romanian fighters willing to lose.

As for the H57 torpedo and RU18T dive bombers that were protected by it, the British officers and soldiers had already felt its power in the previous air raids.

The British side is unequivocal. Hurricane fighter jets are also the main equipment of the British Air Force. Gladiator fighter jets can be described as the best biplanes. As for Hawk fighter jets, they may not be able to deal with enemy fighter jets, but they can deal with bombers flying slowly with ammunition. No problem at all.

An aerial battle was about to begin.

I saw the fighter jets who had divided a large ticket from the attacking aircraft group rushed towards them, and the aircraft group defending Alexandria was also unambiguous, and immediately greeted them.

Nearly 200 fighter jets from the two sides fought off the coast of Alexandria under the eyes of British officers and soldiers.

I saw that the fighters on both sides used a head-on attack without losing momentum. I saw that the two groups of fighters were like a flock of fast-moving birds, quickly approaching each other to attack.

It's just that the British fighter group suffered a big loss when they met.

In the head-to-head attack, it is the consideration of range, power, and rate of fire (in descending order of importance). The British fighters only have the advantage of the rate of fire, and are far from the opponents of the Romanian fighters in terms of range and power.

The main reason is that the British fighters cling to the 7.62 caliber and do not let go. In World War I, the 7.62 caliber machine gun was enough to cause massive damage to wooden aircraft of the time. But now it's almost the 1940s, and the fighter jets are even made of metal. The 7.62 caliber is obviously not powerful enough.

It's just that the British are slow to respond, and still use 8 7.62 machine guns on their latest Spitfire and Hurricane fighters. These ancestral machine guns are the opponents of Romania's two 20mm machine guns and two 12.7mm machine guns. It's completely the mode where I can hit you, you can't hit me, and I'm more powerful than you.

So after the enemy attacked, more than a dozen fighter planes appeared in the sky and fell down with thick smoke. The British officers and soldiers watching the battle below were surprised to find that these crashed fighter planes basically came from their own side.

After the two sides passed each other, they immediately started a close fight, which immediately made the British pilots realize how much mistake they had made. In the face of the zero-style fighting king in the early days of World War II, his routine of attacking behind him is not worth mentioning at all. Many British pilots remember that they were clearly circling the tail of the enemy's aircraft, but they did not expect the enemy to appear at their tail. Many fighter jets were shot down like this.

As for the RH20T fighter, there is no chance of fighting with you at all. This fighter may not be qualified as a carrier-based aircraft, but it is very good as a fighter.

Although the RH20T fighter is not as good as its own air force brother, the famous RF20 fighter, but with the strength of the British Air Force in Egypt, there is no way to deal with it.

Not to mention the fact that there are biplanes in the fighter jets that confronted him this time. Although they are the best among biplanes, the generation difference between biplanes and monoplanes is not so easy to break.

So in the next battle, it will be a bit one-sided. Because most of the downed fighter jets were from the British side, this greatly frustrated the British soldiers who watched the battle.

And basically the downed Romanian fighters were the result of hurricanes. As for the Gladiator, its poor maneuverability puts him in a battered position in combat.

As for the Hawker fighter, well, leave it alone.

In the end, after losing all the Hurricane fighters, the remaining gladiators and Hawke all hurried back. The Romanian fighters, however, did not give up and continued to chase the fleeing British fighters for a while. This angered some fleeing British fighters, who led Romanian fighters over the air defense positions, completely ignoring that the air defense positions might accidentally injure themselves.

In the face of this situation, Romanian fighter jets disperse it and visit Alexandria again.

Inside the port, the anti-aircraft positions were all fired. The battleships Rodney, Sovereign, and Warspite were also moved, and the Malaya had already been stranded to the southwest corner. .
