The first Per-8 bomber took off from the airport and fell down less than a thousand meters high. The sound from the radio silenced the other people on the plane.

On the second Pet-8 bomber behind, Captain Yalitanda Takuning broke the silence: "Electricity 2 requests takeoff."

At this time, a large fire had already ignited where the first bomber fell. Although it was from a diesel engine, it did not mean that it would not burn. After falling, the heat generated by the impact was enough to make the plane burn. Even if it did not burn and fell, there was no possibility of personnel surviving.

This is war, this is the mission of being a soldier, even if you die, you must complete the task.

“Take off immediately.”

An order came from the headphones. He pushed the throttle lever and relaxed the brakes. The Pet-8 bomber slid on the runway, then pulled up and rushed into the dark night sky.

One after another, it seemed that the crash of the bomber in front was for them to practice. There was no accident in the bomber behind, and the eleven Pe-8 bombers took off normally.

After the Pet-8 bomber took off, it was the third echelon.

Compared with the Pei-8 bomber squadron, the takeoff of the yer-2 aircraft group of the 1st Squadron of the 420th Bomber Regiment behind was definitely a terrible disaster.

When Mussolini began to become glorious in Italy, all parties in Italy were hit. After that, the Italian G party member Roberto L. Bartini had to leave Italy and come to the Soviet Union.

As an excellent aircraft designer, he has built the all-metal single gull wing twin-engine Stal-7 with excellent performance.

This type of aircraft was originally designed as a passenger aircraft, but its powerful bomb load makes it a natural fit for a bomber.

Therefore, the improvement of this aircraft was carried out quickly. This was designed by Yemolayev. The wings of the Stal-7 were almost intact, and the semi-hard shell cabin was greatly modified. The ammunition compartment was added. The driver's cockpit was opened to the left, and the nose was equipped with glass for the bomber to observe and operate. In order to improve the turret firing boundary, the single vertical tail of the Stal-7 was changed to a double vertical tail and bent out by 5 degrees.

This aircraft was successfully flew for the first time last year, and was mass-produced and renamed it as yer-2.

From this perspective, this kind of aircraft should be considered a very mature aircraft. Unfortunately, the Soviet engine technology has always been unqualified, and this improved bomber still faces engine problems.

The 1100-horsepower Krimov M-105r twelve-cylinder V-type liquid-cooled engine. Compared with the take-off weight of the aircraft, the power of this engine is not large enough. At the same time, what is even more frustrating is that this is a low-altitude engine.

To put it simply, it is because there is no suitable supercharger. When the height increases, the engine's power drops sharply due to insufficient intake and cannot operate normally.

Because of the very sensitive climate conditions of this type of aircraft, it must face the enemy's air defense firepower and fighter interception at low altitudes.

At the same time, the aircraft's huge bomb load has increased the load on the control surface, resulting in poor longitudinal and lateral stability. The m-105 engine with insufficient power significantly extends the take-off and skiing distance.

Now, on the first bomber, Lieutenant Yalitanda Molodski began a difficult takeoff.

The engines on both sides roared, and he pushed the operating lever, and the bomber began to slide forward, because there were too many bombs loaded, he had to adjust the power of the throttle to the maximum.

The second fire flashed by his plane, and then the third fire.

And just after the third fire had passed, his plane still did not pull up.

At the end of the earthy runway, he pulled his operating rod hard, and finally, the plane's landing gear left the ground, but just as soon as it flew two meters high, the plane fell down again!

With the heavy impact, the entire landing gear broke, the plane tilted to one side, the wings passed by the ground, and sparks appeared.

This Ye-2 bomber crashed as soon as it took off.

Almost like the Pet-8 bomber just now, something happened when it took off, but the plane behind it would not stop.

They keep their mission in mind.

For the Soviets, fight bravely!

The second Ye-2 bomber also began to take off, but it only slid for more than a hundred meters before stopping.

The plane suffered mechanical failure and could not continue to take off.

Then, the third plane had a strange problem.

In the end, only three Ye-2 bombers successfully flew up and entered the dark night sky, which simply put the Soviet bomber troops in shame.

Moreover, these three of them appeared in front of everyone for the last time.

Lieutenant Vladimir Malinin, Lieutenant Kubiko, Captain Sdipanov, and the captain of the three Ye-2 bombers joined the final sequence of bombing Berlin, and what awaited them was an unknown fate.

The night sky is extremely dark.

At this time, the db-3 bomber that took off in the front had been flying for nearly an hour. For them, such a slow voyage would take three hours to reach Berlin. When they returned, it was no load and the wind was at the same time, it only took three hours in total.

Of course, if they can come back.

Colonel Yekini Puribrazenski looked outside and was covered in darkness. Near the front, the Germans implemented light control, not to mention that now, they were over the Baltic Sea.

Because their bombers have limited range, they can only fly a straight line. At the same time, they have to fly at high altitudes so that they can save fuel.

Yejinni knew that the Germans had advanced reconnaissance radars and could find aircraft dozens of kilometers or even hundreds of kilometers away. Fortunately, they were far enough from the coastline. The radars deployed on the coast should not be searched. When they entered land from the sky above Poland and all the way to Berlin, they had to turn to a low altitude.

They guessed it well, and it is true that the radar technology in this era is still not perfect. For example, the current German main force in fugm39/62urzburg "Urzburg" short-range land-based warning radar has an effective detection distance of 170km, a distance measurement accuracy of 100m, and an angle measurement accuracy of 0.2 degrees.

For example, the fumo51mammut long-range land-based warning radar has an effective detection distance of 300km, a distance measurement accuracy of 300m, and an angle measurement accuracy of 0.5 degrees.

These radars are deployed to the Polish coastline and can detect aircraft on the Baltic Sea at a distance. In fact, they will be discovered if they fly one or two hundred kilometers forward.

At the same time, they didn't know that at this time, below them, there was also the German Goethe-class aircraft carrier.
