() After a series of drills, Ron and his gang of guys unanimously decided that they had almost figured out the basics of the Soviets, and this joint training of mutual understanding was almost over. What was the next step?

It's time for a confrontation drill.

In order to cope with this confrontation exercise, in the previous joint training, the "Reverse Cross" established a separate file for each Soviet pilot, which recorded in detail all the intelligence they collected - from each person's habits

From his flying movements, to every word he said, to the things he ate in the cafeteria every day, things that were useful, useless, or not useful were all recorded in categories and registered.

Now, Ron and his staff have selected some records that they think are useful from this pile of things, and based on these things, they have organized preparation meetings one after another. Today is the last one before the small-scale competition.

Preparation meeting. Tomorrow, Boynton and McGeagh, Gobleski and Kahn, Ron and Banger will conduct a simulated air battle with three pairs of Soviet pilots.

Simulated air combat is different from real air combat. You cannot really shoot down the opponent. How to judge whether to shoot down the opponent becomes a problem. Originally, according to the usual rules, bite the opponent for a period of time at 6 o'clock in the range (usually 20 seconds to 40 seconds).

seconds) even if the opponent is successfully shot down. However, the Soviets questioned this rule. They believed that this rule was unfavorable to Soviet pilots, especially unfair to those pilots with shooting talents.

The Soviets' doubts did have some validity. If anyone had Varya bite him at 6 o'clock and 20 seconds during the project, he would probably die several times. So in the end, everyone reached a compromise, with everyone on board

The time that the target survived within its range during the previous empty target is multiplied by a coefficient to determine the time required for each pilot to shoot down the enemy.

This problem was solved, but another problem immediately arose: how to calculate the head-on attack and large-angle fire. According to the American thinking, in these two cases, the weapon has a longer range and a higher firepower density.

Aircraft should get higher coefficients. But the Soviets believed that aircraft that could kill the opponent with only one shell should get higher coefficients.

Finally, the previous method was adopted and a coefficient was assigned to each person. As a result, the Americans obtained a higher average coefficient, but Varya once again obtained a terrifyingly high coefficient.

"Now, the biggest trouble is how to deal with that Russian woman." Ron said at the discussion.

"We can't give her a chance to shoot, otherwise, that woman's hit rate is really..."

"We can try this... After all, the fighter planes we use have obvious advantages in performance. If we can't win like this, the Army Aviation will be embarrassed by us." McGea said.

"I agree with this method. If done well, we can prevent that woman from having any chance of opening fire."

“That’s a good idea!”

…

"Okay, we will conduct an internal drill in the next two days. If the effect is good, we will use this method to deal with those Soviets." Ron finally made a decision.

…

Two days later, the Soviets were informed that if the weather conditions were good and the Soviet side had no objections, the small group confrontation exercise would be conducted in two days. Soon, the Soviets responded and said they had no objection to the time.

…

The day when the confrontation drill started was a sunny day, and the weather was extremely hot early in the morning. It was just 7 o'clock, and the sun had already turned into a blazing fireball. Ron looked towards the runway, which was illuminated by the sun.

. He squinted his eyes and saw several open-top jeeps coming towards him on the other side of the runway. The rising hot air on the runway distorted the light, causing the cars to also distort, as if they were...

Reflection in water waves.

Several cars quickly crossed the runway and stopped in front of Ron and the others.

Before the car came to a complete stop, Ron saw someone pressing hard on the top of the car door with one hand, and the whole person flew into the air, crossed the car door with a beautiful pommel horse movement, and then steadily

Standing on the ground.

The person who jumped down was Varya, and she was very excited about the confrontation drill that was about to begin. Although this was not a real battle with live ammunition, it was still more interesting than formation flying and shooting at empty targets.

More. Moreover, in air combat, using various reasonable or unreasonable tricks to bully those opponents who are full of machismo and as proud as big roosters until they are faceless...

...Just thinking about it makes people feel happy.

At the same time, Varya thought of a battle she had fought in the suburbs of Leningrad. In that battle, she and her wingmen shot down four fascist fighter jets in one go. One of them was particularly cunning and vicious at the time, but

In the end, she beat him down. The fascist pilot was an ace and had won the Iron Cross.

After he landed, he was captured by the Red Army, but even as a prisoner, he still acted like an ace pilot and asked to meet the pilot who shot him down in a 4 vs. 6 air battle. He only replied

The question of the hero who could shoot him down. He didn't even believe that the inferior Slavs could shoot him down in such a battle, and insisted that the one who shot him down must be a colder person from Britain or other races.

A volunteer pilot from a nobler country.

When Varya appeared in front of that guy, the guy's face was as good-looking as he wanted to be. He was stunned for a while, and then he yelled at the officers of the Soviet Ministry of Internal Affairs who were interrogating him,

How dare they drag out a low-level prostitute to humiliate a noble German like him.

Of course, such a bastard just didn't need a lesson. Before the comrades from the Ministry of Internal Affairs could take action, Varya kicked the guy in the head unceremoniously, knocking the bastard unconscious.

Facts have proved that those blind bastards are all bitches. Only by giving them some strength can they learn to respect women. Sure enough, that bastard became more honest after being beaten by a guy. (Nima, as a noble person

A Germanic man was actually knocked down by a Slavic woman. His spirit was about to collapse. How could he still be dishonest?) Then after another interrogation, the guy found that the questions Varya asked were questions that non-professionals would never ask.

He arrived. And he deliberately made some mistakes about the situation during the air battle, and was immediately refuted by Varya. In the end, the bastard finally believed that he had been beaten down by a woman. After being stimulated by this, he

The whole person seems to have shrunk a lot. Like a flat tire.

But that bastard's frustration made Varya feel extremely happy, which was even better than drinking two kilograms of vodka in the winter, so that she fell in love with this feeling from then on. In the subsequent air battle

During the film, she beat the shit out of those "noble" German barbarians time and time again. So much so that the Germans nicknamed her a witch. After Varya, who had always been maverick, learned of this title, she simply

A witch flying on a broomstick was painted on her vertical tail. From then on, as soon as she took off, the German radio channel exclaimed: "Danger attention, danger attention, the witch is in the air, the witch is in the air!" And like this!

The exclamations always bring her more happiness.

It is a pity that such a good thing may be difficult to happen again in the future. The superiors suddenly decided to learn from the successful experience of the Americans and form a simulated enemy force to train the rookies who will go to the battlefield. It is said that this suggestion was made by the

It’s annoying that Kotin got up his career by relying on his brother’s relationship with a famous tank expert. Speaking of which, when he was studying in Moscow, Kotin was not a good person! This guy wrote a bullshit article and actually changed the title.

, I submitted it to two magazines and defrauded the royalties twice.

The ever-famous Queen was also recruited into the team and became a member of the proposed Blue Army. I heard that this was also Ke Jing’s idea.

Come here, a lady like this!) From then on, she could no longer ride at the front, and could only stay in the rear to take care of the rookies.

This is really not good news for Varya, who already regards bullying as the basis of happiness. After all, rookies are not enemies, and there is no sense of achievement in bullying them. Moreover, you can’t bully too much, you have to be careful.

Protect their self-confidence. How can they live like this?

Fortunately, there is still a chance to play with the Yankees. The opportunity is rare, so you must cherish it! Varya said to himself secretly in his heart.

Now that everyone was here, Ron didn't say much. After shaking hands with Ke Jin, who was leading the team, he announced that the confrontation drill between the small formations of American and Soviet pilots had officially begun.

All procedures were simple, so there was no long speech, no reporters, (Reporter: We want to come, but you just won’t let us!), and no salutes or anything like that. As soon as Ron finished his sentence, he went straight to the meeting.

Enter the stage of drawing lots to select your opponents.

The method of drawing lots is as follows. First, following the rules of a football match, Ron and Kogin decide who draws first by tossing a coin. Then each side sends a representative to draw a combination of their opponents.

Ron guessed the coin correctly, so he chose to draw the first round of Soviet pilots. He drew a lot like this:

Leader: Vorozheikin. Wingman: Alleyukin

Kogin also immediately selected the first round of US military pilots to appear:

Leader: Ron. Wingman: Banger.

Then comes the second and third rounds

Boynton and McGaea faced off against Valia and Skomorokhov, while Gobleski and Kahn faced off against Popkov and Lugansky.
Chapter completed!
