Chapter 140 Joint Law Enforcement Action 5
() Luther ran very fast. After observing that his wingman was shot down, Luther understood that he would never get a favor today, and he would be blessed by God if he could run out. So when Ron and Pokryshkin stared at
When the two FW-190s stopped, Luther increased the throttle and ran back. As long as the two FW-190s could hold on for a while, he felt that he had a good chance of escaping back.
In order to escape as quickly as possible, Luther did not choose to escape by sticking to the ground. Instead, he adopted the method of horizontal acceleration, jumping, and then horizontal acceleration. In this way, he could reach a height where he could fly faster. However, he did not
What was expected was that the two fighter jets that shot down his wingman did not struggle with the other two FW-190s for long. They threw the two FW-190s to the Yak-9s that took off later and turned around.
Chased him.
But even so, Luther still has a great chance of escaping. Because he has already escaped very far. If he lowers his altitude at this time, his plane will blend into the field in the eyes of enemies at higher altitudes.
With the woods in the background, the enemy's chance of discovering him would be very small. However, he was too confident in the speed of the fw-190. He felt that as long as he used full power, no one in the Soviets could catch up.
Himself. So he chose to accelerate and fly at a medium altitude of 4,000 meters.
This also made him an obvious target. After Ron and Pokryshkin chased him for a while in the direction of his escape, they saw the FW-190 flying ahead at a glance.
Ron and Pokryshkin began to descend, catching up at an altitude of about 1,500 meters lower than Luther. The reason for doing this was so that when Luther looked back, his plane could
Hidden in the background of the ground, making it harder for him to find himself.
Of course, flying at a lower altitude often means a lower energy state. But Ron is not particularly worried about this. First of all, he has two planes on his side, while his opponent only has one. Using the Greeks
In Chinese language, this is called "a two-on-one fight, even Hercules can't defeat it"; in old Chinese proverbs, this is called "two fists can't beat four hands"; in Internet language, this is called "if you want to fight one on one, you fight alone"
We are a group, if you want to gang up on us, we will gang up on you."
Another reason lies in the excellent performance of the P-81. With its powerful power, the P-81 can fly at a speed of 670 kilometers per hour even at sea level, which has reached the speed of the fw-190a4 at its peak.
It's extremely fast at an ideal altitude. Coupled with its terrifying climbing ability, you won't suffer any loss even if the position is lower.
Because Ron and Pokryshkin flew very low, Luther was unable to detect them when he looked back several times (due to the loss of his wingman, his ability to observe rear targets was greatly reduced). As both sides
The distance was getting closer and closer, and Ron began to gradually increase the altitude. At this time, the distance between the two parties was closer. Even if they rose a little higher, when Luther looked back, their plane would still be hidden in the background of the ground.
Just like that, the distance between the two sides got closer and closer. Even if they got closer, even with the protection of the ground background, Luther would definitely be able to spot them when he turned around. At this time, Ron simply pushed the control stick slightly and let the plane dive.
Accelerate, then quickly pull up, and rely on the super strong climb of this aircraft to pounce directly towards the belly of the enemy aircraft.
The enemy planes in Ron's sight grew bigger and bigger, until they almost filled the sight. Ron began to fire, and he hit a long spot. The FW-190 trembled in the dense rain of bullets.
After a while, countless fragments fell one after another. Suddenly, a large ball of flame burst out from its right wing, and then the right wing of the plane broke into two pieces.
The fighter plane with broken wings began to roll and fall. Ron passed by it, then turned over again, and then continued to fire at the falling enemy plane until it exploded in the air.
A fireball.
"This is very close to the German-occupied area. We can't give him the opportunity to parachute back to report to the enemy that he encountered us." Ron explained. Obviously, if the Germans learned that the P-81 appeared on the Eastern Front, they would probably
Be aware of their purpose. This will definitely affect the effectiveness of subsequent operations.
"I understand." Pokryshkin said. As the father of Soviet air combat tactics, he naturally understood Ron's purpose of destroying the enemy aircraft.
"It's just that I want to know, if he climbs out and parachutes before you can make up for it, will you shoot the parachute?"
"I don't answer such hypothetical questions." Ron replied shamelessly.
…
A week later, the Soviets' refitting training was basically completed, and according to reports from local guerrillas, the runway modifications at the German airports near Warsaw were also completed. Nowadays, a distinctive sound can often be heard near the airport.
The roar of sharp engines. It seems that German jets have begun to take off and land at these airports.
…
"Well, we are all veterans. One week of training time is indeed a bit short, but it is not a big problem for everyone. In fact, the situation everyone has grasped is already very satisfactory. Next
One step is to carry out our mission."
Ron said to all the pilots at the combat mobilization meeting.
"Our mission requires us to conduct long-distance raids on several airports set up by the Germans near Warsaw and eliminate the German jets training there. Now let's take a look at the situation at these airports..."
"According to various signs, it can be inferred that the enemy does not understand our situation. So we have the opportunity to achieve a surprise attack. Everyone knows that sneak attacks are almost the least costly and most effective combat mode. Some of our old comrades have experienced the Germans
I believe these comrades still remember the heavy losses suffered by our air force during the sneak attack on us during the Barbarossa Plan. Now it is our turn to give them a sneak attack!" Pokryshkin mobilized.
"Kill those fascists!"
…
There were shouts and curses in Russian below. It was obvious that the morale of the Russians was very high.
"I have also had the experience of being attacked by a sneak attack." Ron said to the American pilot, "Back then, when I was still in the Philippines, I was attacked by the fascist Japanese. Nainai is a bear, whether it is Japan or Germany, the fascists
What the brats are best at is talking about friendship with you while making sneak attacks without declaring war. So, I always think, when will we
Let those fascist brats know that sneak attacks are not their exclusive domain. And our sneak attacks must be better than theirs. An undeclared sneak attack is too difficult. I
We want to sneak attack them, even if war has been declared, even if they are so nervous that they sleep with their eyes open, we can still catch them off guard!"
"Moreover, compared to the Western Front, we have a higher probability of achieving a sneak attack. Due to the constant changes in the front, the Germans have no way to establish an air defense radar network as tight as the Western Front. Their air defense radar network has many loopholes.
You see, this is the location map of the German fixed radar stations provided to us by intelligence agencies and resistance organizations.
We have calculated the blind spots of these radars based on local terrain data. There are many loopholes that allow us to penetrate. The activity of the resistance organization also makes it impossible for the Germans to maintain a large-scale operation based on countless observation towers.
Observation and forecasting system. This is our first favorable condition for a sneak attack..."
"The second favorable condition is the weather. In the battle against German fascism, God has made it clear that he will be on our side. In the next two days, it will be cloudy from Belarus to Ukraine.
The clouds are low and there is still fog in the morning. Therefore, it is impossible for the enemies in this area to detect us visually, but our target area is sunny, which is very conducive to ground attacks..."
"Of course, we have to be prepared for the situation that the Germans are already prepared for, so I plan to make such arrangements for the fighter force... Finally, I announced that the code name of our operation is: 'Joint Law Enforcement.'
"
…
Regarding the name of the operation, the Russians originally proposed another name, called "Operation Hammer". At that time, Ron made a joke and said: "This name is too vulgar, how about calling it 'Thor's Hammer'?"
The Russians discussed it and thought that, as Ron said, the name "Operation Hammer" was vulgar enough. However, Ron's "Thor's Hammer" was not much better, and it also had publicity
It was suspected of feudal superstition. Then the Russians and Americans argued with each other for a long time over this name.
In the end, it was Harry's idea of "joint law enforcement" that won everyone's approval.
This is all Harry explains about the name:
"In the United States, each state has its own police system, and the police in each state are not subordinate to each other. At the beginning, this model gave some criminals the opportunity to rob a bank in Virginia and then go to New York.
Live a life of debauchery. Because the Virginia police department has no right to come to New York to arrest people. Later, among the states,
Joint law enforcement began during the period, so that those criminals can no longer get away with whatever they want. Isn’t the situation this time similar to this? The German planes escaped from our attack range to the attack range of our allies, thinking that relying on this
They can escape the punishment they deserve. The two allies of us will join forces to catch those criminals who think they have a plan."
