There is only one chance.
On the one hand, after this bombing, the Americans will definitely increase their attention and deploy night fighters and radars. If they want to easily get into the air over American territory again, there will be a certain degree of danger.
On the other hand, after this bombing, if it is not successful, the Americans will definitely move their bases more secretly, making their own bombers more difficult to reach, for example, to the central part of the United States, or even to Alaska, their own bombers. It's beyond reach.
This bombing was decisive and efficient, and it must be a success.
"As long as the ground personnel cooperate in place, we are absolutely fine." After hearing Bescher's words, the navigator Antonio said.
What is most important in intercontinental flight? Of course it is navigation! In order to perform these bombing missions, Junker-390 has a variety of advanced navigation equipment.
For example, the inertial gyroscope transplanted from the V-2 missile can accurately track the trajectory of the aircraft, thereby marking the position of the aircraft on the aeronautical chart. However, mechanical gyroscopes have errors. As time accumulates, the errors will become larger and larger. Only laser gyroscopes can achieve high accuracy.
Therefore, the inertial gyro must be constantly corrected during the voyage. If it is at night, it can be corrected by starlight, and during the day, it can be corrected by using the known sea islands below.
Antonio is the navigator of Bescher and the navigator of the entire formation. His task is quite heavy. He knows that just relying on the inertial top and the navigation point correction is not enough.
At this time, the cooperation of ground personnel is even more important.
Because German radio navigation technology has also matured, if ground personnel have radio navigation equipment to transmit navigation information in the direction of the bomber's flight, it is easy to give the aircraft the correct guidance.
The superposition of multiple means is sufficient to ensure that the aircraft can fly in the correct direction. As for the bombing effect, it depends on its advanced high-altitude bombing equipment.
Antonio is confident.
"Also, before carrying out the task, the most important thing for us is to ensure adequate rest, to cultivate enough energy, and to wait for the order to come!" Bescher said.
He spoke very seriously, but everyone present smiled. In fact, this command sounds simple, but it is not easy to execute, because at this time, everyone is very excited, and they are so excited. Can't sleep.
Even if they close their eyes, all images appear in their minds. For example, Antonio has been thinking about the navigation problem in the middle of the road, where is the most appropriate place to set the navigation point. After entering the United States, it is already night. , Which city needs to be used as a navigation point along the way, and to prevent mistakes.
Everyone has their own task assignment, and they are all thinking.
At the same time, the ground staff in the base are busy.
To carry out such a transcontinental bombing mission, it is necessary to ensure that the aircraft is in good condition, and all kinds of maintenance work must be in place, and then the fuel is filled and the bombs are hung up. They have done meticulously for six hours before they have completed the maintenance and repair. The task of supply.
After that, just wait.
The wait was not long, and after another four hours, the order to take off came.
Jumping up from his bed, a famous crew member quickly put on his flight gear and gathered in vigor.
In front of them, there is Richthofen, the commander-in-chief of the German Air Force. This veteran has few words, but is full of power: "The United States, shamelessly declare war on us. They don't want to see us unite Europe. Now , We must let the Americans know the consequences of declaring war on us, and the war will burn in the United States! Let’s go!"
set off!
Bescher took his crew and ran to the front Junker-390 bomber. This large bomber got in from the tunnel beside the landing gear in the belly.
The navigator, Antonio, climbed to the bottom of the nose, where he was, navigating, and also the bomber who bombed.
This plane is very tall. When you sit in the cabin, it is as high as a two-story building. From the glass in the cabin, you can see the wings and engines on both sides.
There are three engines on each side, and the entire aircraft reveals a violent aesthetic, just like the Dora Cannon. Only the Third Reich can make this kind of war machine!
"Start the engine," Bescher said.
Nowadays, electric starting is basically popularized in German airplanes, and there is no need to manually rotate the propeller. When the pilot presses the button in the cabin, the No. 1 engine on the left emits a puff of black smoke and vibrates violently. Minutes later, the black smoke faded and the engine was started!
Next, is the second engine on the right.
It took ten minutes to start the six engines~EbookFREE.me~ After each engine started smoothly, the random mechanic checked that the instrument data of each engine was normal and met the takeoff requirements.
"Bomber 901, request to take off." On the radio, Bescher called to the tower.
"You can take off, I wish you a pleasant journey." The voice of the tower came from the headset.
For German pilots, this is just a transcontinental journey.
On Bescher’s side, the pilot pulled the throttle to the rear, and the six engines made a louder roar. Each engine burst out with a maximum power of 2500 horsepower, a huge bomber of 75 tons. The brakes were released and he rolled on the track.
At this time, it was fully loaded. The bomber's take-off was also very heavy. When it was almost at the end of the runway, the bomber reluctantly pulled up and slowly climbed up with a small climb line.
Behind them, the four remaining bombers also took off one after another. When the last bomber was pulled up, the photographer pressed the shutter and included the five bombers in the photo.
This is a precious moment that will be recorded forever in the annals of history. Germany has officially launched its hands on the United States! Of course, this is completely a secret, no one knows, and no one will admit it. In the British air base, the German bomber unit officially began flying.
At this time, no one knew that on the other side of the earth, fellow German bombers were also doing the same actions, but compared to their German counterparts, the American counterparts took off so thrilling.
When the equipment is insufficient, you have to fight with your life. Since you have joined the army, you can't be afraid of danger! Even if a bomber takes off from an aircraft carrier, give it a try! ()
