Chapter 971: Across the ocean

All that should be demolished has been demolished. Now, the plane has surplus. What does the surplus do? Of course it’s fueling!
The voyage is far away. Although the Soviet Union is closer, but at this time, it is quite inappropriate to land in the Soviet Union after the bombing of the island country. Only Huaxia can land. Moreover, you have to run farther, but you can’t For island-controlled areas, the national-controlled areas will do.
At this time, sufficient fuel is the guarantee of everyone's confidence. After all, there may be any accidents in flight.
"Our bombing this time requires one 454kg incendiary bomb and two 227kg high-explosive bombs. The rest of the space is all used for fuel." Du Lite continued.
The bombing of the island nation this time was just symbolic. It was not about pinging Tokyo, but revenge on the island nation and the demonstrations. As long as the people of the island nation understand that the United States can bomb his homeland every minute.
All other spaces, come on!
A 225-gallon rubber auxiliary fuel tank is installed in the front, a 160-gallon foldable rubber auxiliary fuel tank is installed in the bombing bay, a 110-gallon metal auxiliary fuel tank is installed in the belly, and a 60-gallon fuel tank and 10 5-gallon fuel tanks are even placed in the rear space. , There are no fuel pipes in these places. It needs to be in the sky, and the pilots climb over to refuel manually!
After several days of tinkering, they finally increased the B25 fuel capacity from 646 gallons to 1251 gallons, almost doubled. To prevent freezing, the fuel tank must be equipped with a de-icer.
All this is over, and then, it is to take off.
Refitting aircraft has always been carried out at the airport. Now, on the runway of the airport, they have drawn a line to simulate the deck, the aircraft is fully loaded, and the training is carried out according to the actual situation.
Doolittle got into the cockpit. He opened the window and looked down from above. The take-off line on this side to the take-off line on the opposite side was only a short sixty meters. He had to pull up such a short distance. stand up!
The engines on both sides were successfully started. The Wright R-2600-9 engine was emitting black smoke, and the propellers were spinning fast. After two minutes of warming up, Du Lite fully opened the throttle. In an instant, the engine made a huge noise. , Each engine is releasing the maximum power of 1700 horsepower.
The brakes were released, and the B-25 bomber, like an old scalper with a lot of energy, rushed forward with its head stuffed.
Speed ​​up, speed up!
The length of sixty meters was almost instantaneous. Du Lite pulled the control stick in front of him vigorously. The plane crookedly wanted to leave the ground, but he did not succeed. It was only more than eighty meters. Pulled up.
No way! Have to continue to lose weight!
Doolittle is constantly competing with the B-25. He needs to get the plane to successfully fly from the carrier!
In order to bomb the island country, the Americans racked their brains, and at this time, on the other side of the ocean, an aircraft they needed most had already begun a test flight.
On the runway of Junkers, a large bomber is preparing for takeoff. In this era, Junker-290 is already a behemoth, and this kind of bomber is even bigger than Junker-290. To be longer and wider, three engines are arranged on one side of its long wing!
"Two years ago, we launched the American bomber project. In order to complete this project faster and better, we restructured on the basis of the original Junkers-290." Designer Ebas said to the people around him.
The head of the empire, Cyric, is inspecting Junkers at this time and is participating in the first flight ceremony of this Junker-390. This is a day worth remembering!
The Junker-290 has already made many countries envy. For example, island countries have always wanted to order from Germany. Unfortunately, Germany will not give them this opportunity. This kind of strategic bomber is absolutely not for export.
At the same time, Junker-290 is not enough to perform missions to and from the Americas. Therefore, Germany has developed aerial refueling technology that can improve the endurance of Junker-290, but this is still not the final solution.
The ultimate solution, of course, is to develop a real transcontinental bomber!
Although with Cyric’s support, the ballistic missile project is steadily advancing, but it takes a long way to go from a real intercontinental missile. In this way, Germany must also have this large intercontinental bomber for Carry an atomic bomb under development.
At the same time, this large aircraft has great potential. In addition to becoming a bomber, it can also become an aerial refueling aircraft. When electronic technology advances in the future, it can even become a carrier aircraft for airborne early warning aircraft, and so on.
Germany has demand in this area, and also has technical strength in this area.
"We use a further improved engine, and the power of a single unit has reached 2500 horsepower. This allows our aircraft to have better dynamic performance, with a bomb load of more than 20 tons and a maximum take-off weight of more than 75 tons~EbookFREE.me ~ The bomb load is more than 20 tons, and it is tailor-made for the planned atomic bomb. In this era, nuclear weapons have just begun to be developed, and the road to miniaturization is far away, and only bombers can carry them.
While listening to the designer’s introduction, Cyric looked at the bomber on the runway. Historically, this large aircraft was ordered by Hitler to be built after World War II had been reversed. In the end it was not enlisted.
But now it is different. With the rapid development of German military technology, this aircraft has entered the prototype test flight stage. Of course, this is also the final model.
The next generation of aircraft must be jet aircraft. While jet fighters continue to improve, jet bombers have also been put on the agenda. Although it may take longer, the jet always represents future development.
On the runway in the distance, there was the roar of engines. Six high-power engines made a roar. The first test flight of the Junker-390 bomber finally began!
Under the fuselage, rows of tires are running together. The long wings, passing through the air, continue to generate lift, almost sliding forward for more than 800 meters. The front wheel of this bomber finally After leaving the ground, the rear wheels continued to slide for a few seconds, and then left the ground. This behemoth finally flew!
Countless technicians cheered on the field. They broke a record again and sent the largest spacecraft made by mankind to the sky!
Seeing the bomber flying into the sky, Cyric's thoughts were also taken up. He seemed to see the bomber carrying a nuclear bomb, blatantly going to the top of the Americans to deter. ()
