Chapter 440: Brave invincible


When the white fish belly appeared in the east, the huge fortress appeared in front of Ross' eyes.
Their actions are just right! The sky is bright, you can find your own target visually, and at the same time the opponent has no defense!
Moreover, although Ross's gliders have experienced two takeoffs, they were towed by Stuka bombers for the second time. They flew higher and took less time when they floated over.
Therefore, this plane was the first to fly over.
Of course, that is, the front and rear feet. The other gliders are almost behind them.
When taking off, they need to rely on the wheels, and when they start to leave the plane, the wheels are thrown away.
This wheel will add extra drag, causing the flight speed to decay too fast, and at the same time, they cannot rely on the wheel to land.
The wheel needs a runway, and it must be long enough, the target is not that wide at all, so they can only use unconventional landing methods!
"Attention, it's going to land." The glider had no power and no sound. Ross's voice reached everyone's ears.
From here, you can clearly see the top of the fortress. There is an area of ​​900 meters long and 700 meters wide. The terrain is open and flat. At this time, weeds grow on it.
If there are wheels, the length of 900 meters is not enough. Now, the dfs230 glider with the wheels thrown away, under the belly is a solid heavy ski. It can be said that this landing was a complete head-to-head. landing.
In order to further reduce the resistance, a large number of iron wires are wound on the skid, which is a temporary measure before takeoff.
When landing, the impact force was very strong. After receiving Rose's reminder, everyone in the cabin grasped the grips beside them. They are waiting for the final landing.
The altitude is a bit high. In order to be able to land, Rose had to push the joystick down to dive and dive quickly at a steep angle! In this way, it can land and stop within a short distance.
That platform is getting bigger and bigger. At this time, Ross is fully focused. If he can't land on it, a glider without power cannot go around and land again.
Must be accurate!
As an excellent glider pilot, Ross is quite sure. In training, he can reach a landing within 20 meters of the target circle center, which is quite accurate.
This time, of course it is no exception!
Continue to decline!
The platform was getting bigger and bigger, and Rose was able to see the grass blowing in the wind at the top, and then he felt a huge impact coming from him.
The ski has been in close contact with the platform at the top of the fortress!
Landing head-on! The glider took on the impact of this collision by virtue of its solid steel-tube structure. The skid below had two marks on the top of the platform, and the grass below was fragmented.
The glider continued to slide forward, slower and slower, and finally stopped!
A successful landing! Ross stopped the glider to the very center of the top of the platform, with an error of almost two meters!
"Quick, quick, quick!" Lieutenant Wichig shouted loudly. He looked at his subordinates, holding an assault rifle, and filed out from the opening on the side of the glider.
A few years ago, at the Moscow military parade, Soviet airborne troops fell from the sky, which shocked the chief military officers of other countries. Countries began to establish airborne troops.
However, Germany is thinking.
After many exercises, the German military concluded that, when attacking a small range of tactical targets, the use of light assault gliders for landing has a greater advantage than the use of parachutes for parachuting.
Because the parachute is too slow, it takes a long time for the paratroopers to slowly fall from the air to the ground, and they are in a passive state of being beaten, which is likely to cause casualties.
Even if it landed safely, it would be difficult to quickly build up combat effectiveness due to scattered landing locations. In addition, the paratroopers must also dismantle their parachutes and find separate weapons and equipment, which takes a long time and easily misses the fighters, which greatly reduces the effectiveness of the raid.
The paratroopers seem to have descended from the sky and are quite powerful. In fact, their combat effectiveness is not high.
However, the situation is completely different when using a glider.
The biggest problem with parachuting is that it is too scattered, while gliders can be accurately positioned, and they can easily land near the target.
Another advantage is that as long as they land, the heavily armed paratroopers can jump out of the glider and go into battle immediately. Moreover, they can carry more weapons than parachuting in the glider!
In the case of parachuting, the transport plane has to fly over the target, there is a huge noise, and the glider has no engine noise~EbookFREE.me~ If you launch an attack at night, you can reach the target quietly without the enemy knowing it. Region, so as to achieve a nearly perfect surprise effect.
In this era, other countries have not paid much attention to gliders, but the German airborne troops used it to create a miracle!
When the eastern sky was just shining, the German assault team had reached the top of the most important Eben-Emar fortress. They filed out, and in front of them, a Belgian sentry widened. Eyes, mouth wide open, staring blankly at these Germans who have fallen from the sky.
He was stunned, and at this moment, his surprise occupied his mind. He didn't expect that the Germans would be able to come by these iron birds. It was like a dream.
So that he didn't even think of issuing an alarm, and the German commandos rushed off the glider.
"Da da da." The German soldier's assault rifle, a short shot, with a 6.8 mm bullet, swept him down. When his body fell backwards, he was suddenly surprised. , Has already started.
Behind, one after another gliders descended from the sky with quite thrilling movements, collided with the platform, accelerated, and stopped. When they just stopped, the German soldiers on it filed out.
"No!" a German soldier yelled. He saw a glider that fell afterwards. Under the influence of a crosswind, it was about to slip off toward the side of the platform!
At this time, the pilot pressed the control stick hard, and in a severe collision, the glider landed and continued to glide toward the edge of the platform. The front end was already suspended from the upper end of the platform. Fortunately, it stopped.
The soldiers inside ran out quickly, they didn't care about just walking on the edge of death, they only remembered their mission!
