"In order to promote the traditional friendship between the navy and the army, and to promote the continuous improvement of our business quality..."

"Oh, I heard wrong, it's the continuous improvement of combat skills." Ron was sitting in the shade of coconut trees under the stage, listening to the speech of Lieutenant Commander John Thatch on the radio, and couldn't help but think: "'When

Although we are different, the world is different, but the principles of the world are the same. Who said this? Although it is a bit conservative and old-fashioned, it is really not completely unreasonable. How about the leader's speech now?

Is it so similar to the speech of the leader at that time? It’s true that ‘people are the same as me in ancient and modern times’, but the leaders in the United States are still more humane. At least they can hide under the shade of the trees when listening to the speech.

You can drink some soda and eat some melon seeds."

Perhaps because I was thinking wildly, I didn't hear much of what was said later. When I listened again, the speaker had become Major Braun.

"The Army and Navy have always been brotherly forces that help each other and unite as one. Our confrontation exercise is not to prove that our Army Air Force is far stronger than the Naval Air Force, but to hone our skills and jointly defeat Japan."

There was laughter below. Almost everyone remembered Braun's murderous speech at the Army's own mobilization rally a few nights ago.

"Those guys in the Navy are so arrogant that they dare to challenge us. These guys actually said that they can kill us with a big score. Do you agree?...Of course we won't agree, we will.

Kick their butts so hard! Let those fake bitches in the Navy who only show off their white uniforms to deceive girls die!..."

Considering that the Navy's team also laughed when John Thatch spoke, it is estimated that the Navy did not say anything good when it was having its own meeting behind closed doors.

After the two leaders finished talking, it was time to get down to business. From the Navy, Lieutenant Pilot Lynch came on stage. As he walked towards the plane, he lowered his head and recalled the countermeasures obtained at the preparation meeting.

"As far as we know, the P-38 is very fast, faster than any previous Army fighter. But its roll at low speeds is average. If there is a chance to drag it into scissor flight, this guy will

Dead."

"Such a big thing shouldn't be too flexible. Just try hard to fight with it."

"Encourage it to make movements. It's such a big guy. It may be able to fly very fast, but I'm sure it won't be able to make a few big movements before it stalls."

In short, everyone thinks that such a big guy must be very clumsy. Has anyone seen an elephant dancing? Letting a twin-engine aircraft fight against a single-engine light fighter is like letting an elephant dance.

Ron is the first person to appear on the Army side, because he is the most confident one. Winning a game first is very important for morale.

Two aircraft, the Army's P-38 and the Navy's F4F, took off one after another. According to regulations, they each carried half a tank of fuel when taking off. After taking off, they would first climb in different directions, wait until they reached the predetermined altitude, and then return to the predetermined position.

Circling, the two sides moved their opponents to the 3 o'clock position, maintaining a considerable height and speed, and waited for the command plane to issue instructions. An Army B-17 acted as a referee not far away. According to regulations, the bite was within 60 seconds of the flight.

If you can't get rid of it for seconds, or if you are shot by the opponent 4 times, it will be considered a failure. (Actually, Ron thinks that holding on for 30 seconds is enough.) This rule is actually not good for the army. The firepower of the P-38 is much stronger than that of the F4F.

The body is also stronger. Under normal circumstances, the number of shots required for a P-38 to shoot down an F4F is far lower than the number of shots required for an F4F to shoot down a P-38. However, the Army pilots have learned a lot after practicing on the P-38.

I believe this will not affect the outcome. In addition, the height of both sides cannot be lower than 1,500 meters. If either side drops to this height during the battle, it will be deemed to have crashed.

As soon as he took off, Lynch discovered that something was wrong. The climbing speed of the P-38 far exceeded that of the F4F. He was far from climbing to the predetermined altitude. Ron was already driving the P-38 at the predetermined altitude of 4,000 meters.

I was spinning around waiting for him. And looking at the circling state of the P-38, its circling radius was far from as large as imagined. It seems that in addition to the known speed disadvantage, the f4f is also disadvantaged in climbing. And in terms of circling

He may not be able to take advantage. Except for rolling, there is almost nothing stronger. Is there any chance to bring the enemy into scissor flight? If the opponent is other army pilots, he still has such confidence, but now his

The opponent is Ron. Will he make such a stupid mistake? Fortunately, there is no pressure on him, and the Navy can still tolerate the defeat. John Thatch has already said beforehand that there will be many rewards for defeating Ron, but if you can't,

, which is acceptable. So even though Ron wanted to use a rapid climb to create pressure on him, Lynch didn't notice any pressure at all.

The two sides are hovering in an invisible ring with a diameter of about one kilometer, each at the 3 o'clock direction of the other side. The fierce and exciting game is about to begin. Just when the game is about to start, near the stadium,

A UFO with electromagnetic stealth + visual stealth + infrared and ultraviolet stealth is hovering quietly.

"Dear viewers, dear listeners, what is being broadcast live to you now is a friendly match between the U.S. Naval Air Force and the U.S. Army Air Force. This friendly match is the first of a series of warm-up matches for the Guadalcanal Series. By Time Travel

TV broadcast live to everyone, the Mid-Autumn Festival has just passed, and I am here to wish you all a happy old age. I am the host Han Dazui, and the person next to me is our special guest, Director Zhang Shaozhongzhang of the Strategic Deception Bureau... taking into account many things

The audience has just opened the elevator and is not very clear about the current situation. We ask Director Zhang to give us a brief comment."

"Many viewers always think that the P-38 is a new weapon, but new weapons cannot determine the outcome of a war. The key factor that determines victory or defeat is people. Grandpa Mao taught us... Besides, is the P-38 really a new aircraft?

I can't see it. Look at its number, 38, which is just a broken 38. There are 39 and 40 behind it. In fact, the P-38 project was established very early, so the number is in front of the P-39 Huey Cobra.

It's a pity that Lockheed Martin is completely incompetent and couldn't get it right after working on it for n years. It was only recently produced. It can be said that it has lagged behind as soon as it was born. This new aircraft is just an old cucumber with green paint.

——Just pretending to be young. Why should I..."

Turn to 44944…”

After the referee issued the command to start, Lynch immediately set up the aircraft and cut inside to approach Ron, while Ron continued to maintain a hovering posture and began to pull the nose of the aircraft to climb. Lynch immediately cut into Ron's rear hemisphere, but

, the distance between the two sides is still far beyond the range. Lynch bit Ron and climbed up with him. "Just catching up a little more is enough!"

Ron's climbing angle began to increase, and the F4F driven by Lynch became increasingly unable to meet his expectations. Now the situation between the two parties has changed again. Ron is still at Lynch's 3 o'clock, but his height is already higher than Lynch's.

It's much higher. If everyone continues to spiral like this, there will be at most two more laps. Either Ron will circle behind Lynch's ball and use his height advantage to launch a dive attack, or Lynch will try his best to catch up and stall himself.

Sure enough, after just one more circle, Lynch's F4F was already at Ron's two o'clock position. Moreover, his plane was now very slow, and he was relying on desperately pulling the nose to maintain altitude. It seemed that

The entire plane seemed to be hanging on the propeller.

Lynch understood that his situation was now very unfavorable, and he could no longer think about attack and must immediately think about defense. So Lynch began to roll, preparing to pull the nose of the aircraft and turn into a dive. However, his actions at this time must be careful enough and sufficient.

Soft - any slight movement could cause his plane to stall.

But at this time Ron had already launched an attack. He quickly swooped over and bit Lynch's six points tightly. Lynch made a sharp turn and dodged. Ron did not follow the sharp turn immediately, but used a

He pulled the plane up at a large angle, and then dived down again. As he continued to dodge left and right, each dodge caused his altitude to drop a lot. What's even more terrible is that the kinetic energy gained from falling altitude was still in the process of dodging.

It is constantly being consumed. If this continues, the altitude will definitely fall below 1,500 meters soon, and then it will be judged as a crash. But what if you directly dive to escape? The P-38 is not like Zero War, which will fall apart after a slight dive.

It's not that easy to get rid of the tail bite of the P-38 by diving. But now this is the only way to try.

Lynch's plane began to dive downwards, and Ron followed behind, holding tight. Lynch saw the readings on the altimeter constantly changing. 6000 (feet), 5600, and if it didn't pull up, it would rush directly below 4900.

It was directly judged to have crashed. However, Lynch didn't plan to pull up. He would be shot down if he pulled up. He might as well rush down. If Ron followed too closely, he would also rush down. That would be

It's a tie.

But Ron still disappointed him. From the beginning of the dive chase, Ron was always paying attention to the speedometer and altimeter (who dare not to see these clearly when diving on the P-38), when Lynch rushed straight down

By that time, Ron had already lowered the dive flaps and began to prepare for exiting the dive.

In the first game, the Army led 1-0.

This result was completely expected by John Thatch. In fact, few people thought that Lynch could kill Ron in such a duel. But the process of this battle gave him a lot of pressure - in this

In a confrontation, Ron did not show any outstanding skills. He almost completely relied on the performance advantage of the P-38 to suppress his opponent. In fact, he was demonstrating to his comrades behind him how to

Use the simplest way to kill F4F. At this time, every naval pilot was thinking about what would happen if it was him just now, and what other options could be used. Petrov looked up at William, only to find that William also turned to look at him. The two of them

They smiled at each other, but sighed together. They found that they had no choice. It seemed that P-38 was far more difficult than they expected, and the prospect of this game seemed very bleak.

The subsequent confrontation was basically a repeat of the first game. The Army continued to use spiral climbing tactics to bully the Navy. Except for William's game, he met a newbie. William relied on accumulating speed below and deliberately made it impossible to climb up.

He confuses the opponent with his appearance, then gains an advantage through a rapid jump, and then bites him hard to win in 60 seconds. In the other games, the Navy lost all the games. They just missed a clean sheet.

This confrontation brought many consequences. The first consequence is: on Guadalcanal, after the fleet suffered losses and had to retreat, and the security of the entire Guadalcanal depended on the Guadalcanal Airport, did the Navy send F4F?

Instead, he went directly to the Army and asked for a P-38 squadron to go over.

As for the second consequence, Grumman became a victim. When the Navy chose to develop carrier-based aircraft, the competition began between the F6F Hellcat and the F4U Corsair. In the original history, the Hellcat relied on its greater

Good landing performance can eliminate the pirates who have more advantages in speed, climb and roll. But this time, the pirates had the last laugh. Because the Navy asked: "Can your Hellcat beat me?"

P-38?”
