Chapter 1769: R four M rocket salvo

Air-to-air rockets rarely appear in later generations because they quickly transition to air-to-air missiles. It is very difficult to carry out a cover attack in the air because it is three-dimensional.
However, in this era without missiles, air-to-air rockets, as a new weapon, are still irreplaceable. They solve several problems: range and power.
There are many arguments for discussing the range of air-to-air weapons. Take the current R4M air-to-air rocket. If it is launched on the ground, its range is only about one kilometer. Now, because the carrier is launched, it is already With a speed of 400 kilometers per hour, its range is quickly enlarged to more than three kilometers. If it is a tail chase attack, since the opponent will also move forward, it cannot launch at a distance of three kilometers, otherwise the target will fly long ago. I left, and now it is flying head-to-head, even if it is five kilometers, there is a possibility of hitting, because the other side will fly the other two kilometers.
Now, if he wants to, Nowotny can launch at a distance of five kilometers, but he didn't do that. The distance is too far, what if the opponent dodges?
Generally speaking, a bomber entering the bombing route will not easily change its navigation route, which will cause the bomb to deviate from the predetermined trajectory and miss the target. However, if the bomber is in danger, such as those flying rockets, they will definitely Dropped the bomb and escaped.
The first is the range, and the second is the power. How can the power of a 20mm cannon compare to a rocket? Even the current R4M is 55 mm.
Now, the distance between the two sides is still fast approaching, after entering visual contact, they continue to approach, ten kilometers, five kilometers, four kilometers, three kilometers...
"Volley of rockets, four." Nowotny shouted loudly, and then he took the lead in raising the nose.
In order to launch rockets, their sights have also been improved. Compared with artillery shells, the rocket’s trajectory in the air is more curved. Although their height is higher than that of the opponent, the distance required is different. Now , They also need to slightly increase the shooting angle.
Almost just after pulling up, the movable ring of the sight had already put the opponent in the middle of the crosshairs, and then Novotny pressed the shooting button.
"Swish, swish, swish, swish!" Four soft sounds appeared from under the wing.
A brilliant flame emerged from the tail of the R4M rocket. Driven by the rocket engine, it quickly left the pylon. When it was separated from the pylon, the folding wings at the tail bounced away smoothly.
The technology of folding the wing is not complicated. In this era, in order to stuff the rocket bomb into the rocket launcher, almost all the wing is folded.
The bullet relies on rotation to keep the trajectory stable, while the rocket relies on the tail wing. Now, as the tail expands, the rocket restores its balance, drags the tail flame, and continues to fly forward.
Behind the flames, a piece of black smoke and four rockets were pulled out, that is, four jets of black smoke, dragged forward in the air, and went straight to the American bomber unit.
If a single fighter intercepts the opponent’s bomber, it will launch the 24 rockets it carries together. Now, since there are two interception lines composed of 24 fighters, each fighter can only launch four. Rockets, which are also nearly a hundred rockets, formed an array of terrible rockets in the air, just like a rain of arrows formed by an array of ancient soldiers, flying forward.
The scene is extremely spectacular.
After the rocket was launched, the pilots did not return to level flight. They pushed the throttle stick to the maximum, continued to climb, and separated from the height just now.
This is to avoid danger.
The black smoke emitted by the engines of nearly a hundred rockets has spread in the rear, forming a terrible black cloud. If you continue to fly at that altitude, the engine will stall at any time because the engine swallows smoke. This will cause serious consequences. It's not a good opportunity to destroy people, but now, just climb and get out of the original height.
At the same time, they have another purpose for climbing.
At this point, the multiple-choice questions are left to the opponent.
If the opponent does not change the flight direction and dissolve the formation, it will suffer a terrible saturation attack by the rockets and suffer heavy losses. If they disperse, then crossfire will not be formed. The jet unit will dive down from high altitude and hit the opponent. Enter the dead corner of the shooting and kill the opponent.
Now, the jet formation climbed up to prepare for the next battle, and this difficult multiple-choice question remained in front of Major General Kenneth.
The black smoke seemed to be demons from hell. At the front of the flame, there were rockets flying over. What should we do?
At this moment, Major General Kenneth thought of a lot. The flying American flag~EbookFREE.me~ the honor of beauty, all the way to the women and children in his own family, his eyes became firm: "According to the original plan, prepare Countdown to the bombing."
They will be able to enter the bombing almost immediately.
"One minute countdown." So William started the final count, and the plane remained stable. If it was hit, it would go to death, and if it was not hit, it would go to bombing.
Just when he had just counted 58, the terrible rocket had already flown.
Major General Kenneth’s eyes were like torches. He watched the first rocket flying from the outside of the left wing of his plane. His eyes were all contempt. Then, the second rocket came from the fuselage. Flew over on the right side, but still missed.
Even if it is a dense formation of one's own side, the gap between them is very large. It is too difficult for the opponent to hit!
At this moment, the third rocket came flying.
This rocket, in the retina of Major General Kenneth, gradually became bigger and bigger. He seemed to be able to see the warhead of the rocket, the wings of the tail, and the trajectory of the rocket.
It should be wrong, it will definitely be, God bless!
In his gaze, the rocket almost flew by wiping the No. 1 engine on the left. From his perspective, it shouldn't collide.
"Boom!" At this moment, suddenly, a huge explosion sounded, and the warhead of this rocket exploded!
Countless shrapnel flew toward the engine, piercing the outer aluminum alloy shell, and piercing the inner cylinder. In an instant, black smoke came out of the engine.
At this moment, Major General Kenneth is quite calm, it doesn't matter if he loses an engine, he can fly!
However, in the next second, from the position of this engine, the wing suddenly snapped off!
