The first thousand two hundred and twenty-six chapters of the fateful showdown (2)
The ground personnel turned the propeller hard to start the 775-horsepower engine. As the engine roared, black smoke came out and the engine was started.
Release the brakes, Safonov slid toward the runway with the power of the plane. His body was pounding with the plane. He had no time to see the situation in the sky. He had to take off quickly to help American friends who came from afar.
At this time, the experts from the Air Force Science Research Institute, who had just run into the air raid shelter, began to study this air battle. For them, this sudden air battle is not entirely a bad thing. At least they can see the performance of this fighter at the first time.
Especially the test pilot Grofastov, who came, stared at the sky with his eyes fixed on the circle drawn by the flying snake fighter, and couldn't help but exclaim: "This aircraft has good hovering performance. If I read it correctly, it is better than all of our planes now."
The layout of the machine head is conducive to reducing air resistance, and the various rudder surfaces are wide, making it very easy to operate in low altitudes.
It is better than the Soviet Union's own aircraft, especially the shell, which is all aluminum alloy, and looks like it.
At this time, in the air, Roy had already chased the other party. He did not fire immediately, but kept pushing the operating lever to change his position.
Either you don’t fire the gun, and once you fire it, you have to kill the opponent with one shot!
The firepower of the Flying Snake fighter is quite powerful. For example, its main weapon is the shaft cannon deployed to the middle of the propeller. It is a 37mm, an absolute killer.
The three-meter-long drive shaft is already very powerful. It is even more amazing to empty the middle of the drive shaft and deploy the 37mm air cannon. At the same time, it is also because the engine is in the rear and the front is empty, so that the heavyweight 37mm air cannon can be installed in the front.
If the engine is front-mounted, the 37mm cannon can only be lifted, so it will be much more difficult for the pilot to aim and shoot.
Roy quickly adjusted his direction. At this time, the f190 in front was still looking for the disappearing target in a crooked manner. Moreover, after more than ten seconds of tracking, Roy had mastered the other party's rules.
In air combat, you cannot fly straight lines. The other party obviously knows this truth, but the other party doesn’t know it, and regular curves are also inappropriate.
For example, now, the other party's flight changes direction almost three seconds apart, and the left and right intervals are now. Now, Roy turns three seconds to push his nose away, and prepares to press his button according to the preset advance amount.
However, almost instinctively, before pressing the button, he looked up at the sky, and this glance immediately made a cold sweat appear on his back.
A f190 was already whistling down, and black smoke began to emerge from the shaft of the opponent's nose propeller!
If Roy hadn't looked at it, his plane would have been hit by the opponent. Now, he immediately gave up the attack on the plane ahead. The push rod and the fighter turned ninety degrees around the fuselage axis, and the entire wing was in a vertical direction. Then, he pulled the rod and the plane began to turn.
The opponent dived from the sky, and the largest projection area was the wings. Now he put the wings upright and perfectly avoided the opponent's attacks.
At the same time, his steering is also very particular. According to his pre-conceived, if the opponent fails to hit a single attack and wants to continue attacking him, he can only level it and fight with him in a horizontal direction. Now he turns and hoveres in this airspace, in fact, he wants to lure the opponent to fight with him, so that the situation can be reversed and even shot down the opponent in the end.
But he was disappointed.
The opponent was very cautious. After missing a single blow, he immediately got rid of the dive and began to climb upwards.
From diving to climbing, it takes a process. In Roy's field of vision, he saw the other party's plane's nose pull up and the fuselage gradually becomes horizontal. When the fuselage is leveled, he and the other party are almost at the same height.
At this time, Roy thought the other party was going to catch up.
From Roy's perspective, he could even see the other party's canopy. At this time, the planes of both sides were exactly parallel, and no one could do anything to anyone.
At this time, the golden sunlight shone on the canopy cover, and the scattered sunlight was a little dazzling. Roy did not see the face of the pilot in the cabin opposite. Moreover, the other party was wearing goggles and oxygen masks, so he couldn't see clearly.
The other party just thought about Roy and raised his middle finger. This action made Roy feel a little familiar.
Just when Roy thought the other party was going to circle in a horizontal plane and the two sides were fighting each other, the other party's nose was still rising.
It seemed that the middle finger stimulated Roy, and it seemed that Roy wanted to compare with the other party. Roy actually pulled the operating lever backwards, and the two fighter jets began to climb upwards almost at the same time.
From a distance, the two fighter jets climbed upwards almost parallel, and this maneuvering action was not of great value, and even Grofastov frowned.
"In this case, whoever has insufficient climbing ability and enters dive first will have disadvantages and will not be in danger during climbing. It depends on who gives up climbing first. If it is an old flying bird, unless you have enough confidence in your plane, you will not let yourself fall into this situation."
In the attention of ground personnel, the two planes climbed upwards and climbed. From this perspective, it seems that the Flying Snake fighter still has some advantages.
What was he doing? At this time, Roy in the sky woke up first. Just now, he was stimulated by the movement of that finger. This movement was so familiar. When he was flying in the sky with his best student, the other party often hooked his fingers at him. Then the two of them started to rush in the sky as if they had just got their beloved racing car.
Now that I am fighting, how can I make such a mistake?
It must have been the long flight that made me unconscious. Roy pinched himself hard, thinking about how to get rid of it.
Because his plane flew over for a long distance, when he arrived here, the fuel was almost empty, so his climb now seemed very easy, but he knew that climbing was definitely a death-seeking comparison with a plane like F190.
In reliable information, the engine output of this type of aircraft is as high as 2,000 horsepower. It is said that there are special means to make the power output reach about 2,500 horsepower in a short period of time. If you compare the latest domestic p-51, there may be hope, but it will definitely not work now.
Suddenly, he remembered that the other party did this because he wanted to obtain the climbing parameters of his fighter. He really didn't expect that in the battle, the other party actually did this, which was like playing with himself.
At this time, the engine in front began to vibrate abnormally. After scanning the altimeter, Roy's face changed even more. He was not good and could not climb any longer.
