Chapter 1729: Brush record

"Three enemy planes, besiege us." The wingman continued to shout.
At this time, the Americans had already reacted. They thought it was a large German aircraft group that had killed them. Who knew that there were only two planes in total, and they had caused the loss of three fighter jets. This is simply embarrassing to the US Navy!
As a result, the three nearby fighters immediately rushed viciously, wanting to come to strangle Lieutenant Colonel Lange.
"Climb with me, full speed." Lieutenant Colonel Lange yelled from the radio. He pushed the accelerator fully and at the same time flipped the switch with his finger.
As he pressed the switch, on his back, in a low-temperature steel cylinder, nitrous oxide gas quickly vaporized, along the pipeline, sprayed into the front engine cylinder.
This is another common way for German fighter jets, nitrogen acceleration! (Actually it is nitrous oxide, but the common saying goes, it is called nitrogen accelerated.)
Just like the MiG-25 spraying water in the intake port to stimulate the engine and increase power, this method of accelerating with nitrogen is more violent and direct. The desire for power is always endless. Although the FW190 engine is already quite powerful, it still needs to be stimulated for a short time by this means.
As he activated the nitrous oxide to accelerate, the nozzle of the engine directly sprayed out flames, and the whole engine roared vigorously, and the power in a moment exceeded 2500 horsepower.
Under the strong power, the entire aircraft quickly jumped upward and climbed rapidly.
As a result, the three American fighter pilots could only use a look of looking up to see how the fighter plane that had been surrounded by them soared into the sky.
Stimulated by nitrogen acceleration, the FW190 climbed up with a terrible rate of climb. Even the nearest American fighter did not have the opportunity to aim and shoot. They could only raise their heads and watch the opponent disappear into their field of vision.
The two FW190s climbed up and soon became invisible in the sky, but, a minute later, the terrible howling came from the sky again.
The most common tactic in Germany is to dive down from the air to attack and then pull up again. The opponent can only be beaten, not fight back. This kind of scene is the most pleasing to the eye.
Now, Lieutenant Colonel Lange, who swooped down quickly, aimed again at an enemy, and with the roar of the nose shaft gun, the fourth fighter was shot down again.
Then came the fifth and sixth. When the sixth was reached, Lieutenant Colonel Lange climbed up again and cursed the nearby American fighter pilots.
You kind of come down! What a hit and run!
The Americans were enraged. In the process, they have been climbing, climbing, trying to find traces of German fighters.
Unknowingly, the height has exceeded five kilometers.
The 1,200-horsepower engine is roaring. Although the ceiling of the Buffalo fighter exceeds 10,000 meters, its performance is even worse at more than 5,000 meters.
The biggest shortcoming of this fighter is its overweight. Because of its overweight, the aircraft is extremely heavy, and it has always been hanged on the battlefield.
If we talk about the advantages, the long range should be counted as one. Its maximum range reached 2,700 kilometers.
At an altitude of five kilometers, the fighter pilots of the United States Navy are intensively searching for the two missing targets. Their heads are constantly looking at the sky. The Germans always like to dive down from high altitude.
At the same time, they are constantly changing directions. In battle, maintaining a straight flight for thirty seconds means death. This is definitely a truth.
"Tom tom, tom tom!" When the guns sounded again, the pilot who was hit was shocked. The sound of the guns came from below. When did the German fly below him?
Unfortunately, no one answered his question anymore. With the sound of the cannons, his plane was broken into two sections from the air and rolled down.
Seventh!
The naval battle over the Atlantic Ocean officially kicked off under the attack of Lieutenant Colonel Lange and his wingman. A tragic naval and air battle was being staged, and at this time, in the White House, a controversy had also entered a fever pitch. stage.
"Didn't we have prepared a plan to put our main force after the Germans have landed?" Arnold looked at the high-ranking officials present, very disappointed and angry: "Now? How to become the main force of the naval aviation force , Are all dispatched?"
In the old days, after Arnold's persuasion, even President Roosevelt finally agreed to give up Greenland, which could not be defended, and then sneak attack when the opponent returned to fight to defeat the German aircraft carrier formation.
If you want to hit the German navy hard, you must have a huge fleet.
In Arnold's plan, only those bombers of the Army Air Force ~EbookFREE.me~ are far from enough, and the Army's P-51 is not enough either. The Navy must be added.
Although the Navy’s aircraft carrier hasn’t been seen yet, the Navy has trained a large number of naval aviation forces, as well as a large number of carrier-based pilots, just waiting for the aircraft carrier.
Who could have imagined that now, the navy is actually making its own claim that when the German fleet is three hundred nautical miles away from Greenland, it will take off almost all of its fleet and run over to intercept it.
This could not help making Arnold very angry.
At the beginning, his proposal was a refutation of Nimitz's suggestion. Nimitz could have an opinion, but now that the battle has begun, it is absolutely unacceptable for Arnold to make such a move.
This is no longer a contradiction between the army and the navy. It is simply a terrible act of treason!
"Arnold, please don't be angry." Admiral Ernest Joseph King said.
Speaking of the U.S. Navy, Nimitz is most concerned. In fact, in Nimitz's head, there is also Admiral Jin, such as a five-star admiral.
Admiral Kim's position is the commander-in-chief of the United States Navy, the Secretary of Naval Operations, a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and a member of the Anglo-American Joint Command. (At this time, the United States of course continues to recognize the British government in exile.)
Due to the complicated military establishment during the war, the US Navy nominally combined the Atlantic Fleet and the Pacific Fleet to form the "U.S. Fleet" during World War II. Admiral Kim was the nominal commander-in-chief of the "U.S. Fleet", that is, the commander-in-chief of the Navy. Participated in the formulation of the U.S. Navy's combat plan during the war, mainly coordinating and commanding U.S. military operations in the Pacific War. Moreover, he personally concurrently served as the commander of the US Atlantic Fleet, responsible for Atlantic operations.
Compared to Nimitz, who commanded the Pacific battlefield, Admiral King was the actual naval leader of this operation.
