The first thousand one hundred and eighty-fifth chapters are launched
The battle belonging to Stuka was over. It intercepted twice and killed three bombers. This result was enough for everyone to be proud of. Without airborne radar, it achieved such a record at night, which was enough to excite all naval aviation. Now, Stuka's fuel has been almost exhausted and it needs to return.
The bombers who rushed to the low altitude could not find their traces for the time being. Franz circled in the airspace and finally began to return.
Even on land, take-off and landing at night are full of risks, not to mention now, landing on an aircraft carrier at night is even more dangerous. Franz correctly returned to the airplane carrier according to the guidance of radio navigation. At this time, the deck lights were lit on the aircraft carrier. From a distance, it looked like a city floating on the sea.
Franz's eyes looked at the signal light at the end of the deck. It was the latest optical drop-assisted equipment developed by German technicians, code-named Eye of Cialis.
It is said that this was designed at the suggestion of Head of Cialek, and the principle is quite clever.
In the past, the naval aviation landed entirely through its superb flight technology. As the aircraft speed continued to accelerate, the pilot's own technology might not be able to ensure safety.
Therefore, now the navies of various countries have selected some full-time guides to guide aircraft to land on the aircraft carrier deck using signal flags. This requires the guides to have rich command experience and strong visual inspection capabilities.
Head of State Cialique took a different approach, which was said to be inspired by his wife Hannah's lipstick in the mirror in the morning and designed an early optical landing mirror. It is a large curvature mirror. The light set at the tail of the ship is reflected towards the mirror and then reflected into the air, providing the pilot with a light descending slope. The pilot follows this slope and corrects the error with the plane's position in the mirror until it reaches a safe landing.
The specific principle is a bit twisting. This is a light box. The middle section is an orange beam, which turns upward and downward into yellow and red beams respectively. There are horizontal green reference fixed lights on both sides of the light box in the middle section. When the height and sliding angle of the carrier-based aircraft are correct, the pilot can see that the orange light ball is in the center of the green reference light. If the pilot sees a yellow light ball and is above the green reference light, the height must be lowered; if the red light ball and is under the green reference light, it must rise immediately, otherwise it will hit the end of the tail column of the aircraft carrier or fall to the sea behind the tail.
Now at night, even the guides on the deck cannot accurately guide the aircraft to take off and land, which depends even more on this set of optical equipment.
Franz, who has rich experience, has a very standard downward line. The signal light on his nose draws a beautiful arc. Just as the plane just flew over the end of the deck, the landing gear in front had already had close contact with the deck.
The propeller plane does not need to block the cable. It can stop as long as it lands on the deck and slows forward and slides for a while. The landing distance is only more than 100 meters.
Franz gently stepped on the brakes, and the Stuka bomber slid forward on the deck for a distance and stopped steadily. The deck personnel surrounded him and the machine gunner in the back seat shouted proudly: "I also shot down one plane, we shot three in total!"
The whole deck was boiling.
The radar soldiers on the bridge were still holding on at this time. Three highlights appeared again on his radar screen. The Soviet bombers were divided into three batches?
However, no matter how many planes come, you will inevitably pay a heavy price in front of your air defense system!
East Prussia, Danze region.
The sea water slapped the shore and made a rustling sound. It was a normal night, with the quiet moonlight shining on the coastline and on the beach.
At this time, on the beach, a hurried force was quickly unfolding here.
According to the information notified by the Navy, from the Baltic Sea to Berlin, this is the only place on the other side's route, so the anti-aircraft artillery troops of the Luftwaffe must set up an ambush here!
They are all 8-wheel drive off-road heavy trucks, which are improved by Ford truck's all-wheel drive chassis. Now, the hydraulic legs around this heavy truck are quickly released, supporting the entire heavy truck steadily. On the truck, the anti-aircraft guns are shaking quickly, pointing in the direction of the threat.
This is a mixed-mounted anti-aircraft artillery unit, with only a few 88mm anti-aircraft artillery, most of which are 40 rounds of Bofos anti-aircraft artillery. This anti-aircraft artillery has a terrible rate of fire and is the most important weapon to attack the enemy.
At the same time, there is a large searchlight in the center of each anti-aircraft artillery company.
Judging from this arrangement, this kind of anti-aircraft artillery unit at night seems to be no different from history. It uses searchlights to indicate the target. After the searchlight discovers the target, all the anti-aircraft artillery will fire together and beat the plane down.
But there are also differences. For example, one kilometer away, there is a vehicle dragging a wide antenna. The vehicle is rapidly unfolding. With the roar of the power train beside it, the antenna has begun to rotate.
Although Germany's electronic technology is developing rapidly and does not violate the development trajectory of radio, they are still unable to create fully automatic weapons that can be used to drive anti-aircraft guns wherever the radar is swept.
However, they already have radar equipment with very high accuracy. There is absolutely no problem with the radar equipment to indicate the target position and let the searchlight find the target at once.
Now, other fire units are nervously preparing, while radar soldiers are already nervously operating.
The electronic equipment is working, and the cooling fan makes a rumble. The weather is still relatively cool now, and sweat is constantly coming out of the radar soldiers' foreheads.
He was still staring at the screen. He was the first to discover the target. His task was very difficult.
Of course, he is not the only one who undertakes such a task. In order to prevent the other party from breaking through from a low altitude, the radar on his side did not respond. The air defense force also sent a large number of personnel to use their naked eyes to observe in the sky and listen to the sound of the plane flying by.
There are such lookouts on the coast, even on the sea surface dozens of kilometers offshore. In this era, using human eyes to discover enemy aircraft is also the most correct way to deal with it. For example, in the history of the London Air War, Britain relied on a large number of such lookouts.
And now, without waiting for too long, there are highlights on the radar screen. Those enemy planes have indeed appeared in the correct direction!
The Soviet Navy's DB-3 bombers had to fly straight due to their limited range. More than an hour ago, a flare suddenly appeared above their heads, and even caused them to collide with planes.
But under the command of the firm Colonel Yejini, they did not change their course and were still flying according to the established plan. The result surprised them. They did not encounter any interception. Except for the collision plane, the other planes were kept intact.
What the hell is going on? Was that flare a lightning bolt? It was just an accident?
Everyone had questions in their hearts, but now they had no time to doubt. The long flight made them extremely tired, but they still had to cheer up because they were about to enter the sky above the land.
