Glorious Mission 1937

There is no impenetrable wall in the world. In fact, before the outbreak of World War II, the Germans already knew the existence of radar. One of their intelligence personnel successfully mixed into the British Army and became an army staff officer.The intelligence officer named Glenn sent a large amount of information to Germany, including radar information. He even sent a large number of drawings for the manufacture of "Lindemann Radar" to Germany.

Among the advanced technologies used in World War II, the role of radar can probably not be overstated.Britain and the United States are the direct beneficiaries of this technology. In fact, Germany and Japan also had access to this technology before World War II, but they were ruined by their regimes.

At that time, Germany was a country with "one leader, one doctrine, and one political party". It was up to the head of state to decide what weapons could be launched, especially weapons that cost more money.Although the German government is infinitely fascinated by radar, because it is only a defensive weapon, which seriously deviates from Hitler's "blitzkrieg" idea that only offense is taken, no one dares to argue with Hitler on the development of radar.It was not until 1940 that Germany began to develop the "Lindemann Radar" based on Glenn's intelligence, but it was too late, because the radar had a long process from development to production to application.

So until now, apart from Chen Feng, the time-traveling man, the country that used radar for the first time in World War II was still the United Kingdom, and the specific battle was the Great Britain Air Battle.

Although the Germans were extremely strong in the wars throughout Northern Europe and Western Europe, especially their sophisticated weapons and equipment caused Britain, France and other countries to suffer, but it is undeniable.They lag far behind the British in the development and use of such electronic devices.As German ace Adolf Galland later remarked: "We realized that the Royal Fighter Squadron must be under the control of some new device on the ground, because we heard that the order to direct the Spitfire and Hurricanes against the German fleet was Very proficient and accurate. This radar and its control of fighter jets surprised us, and it was a very tragic surprise. But we can't do anything about it, and we can't blow it up." It can be said that Hitler placed great hopes on Great Britain In air combat, it can be said that it was completely defeated by the British army's secret weapon-radar.

Even the mighty Germany has suffered a great loss in front of the artifact of radar, not to mention the Soviet Union, which has always paid little attention to updating weapons and equipment, so they didn't even know that Chen Feng's troops had already been equipped with advanced early warning radar. All the actions that they thought were secret were clearly visible in front of Chen Feng's men.

This time, the Northern Air Force did not intend to ambush the remnants of the Ninth Army of the Soviet Air Force, but when the second brigade of fighter jets took off to prepare for an air strike on Ulaanbaatar, the plane took off within half an hour.There was an abnormal response on the early warning radar.After receiving the news, Liu Nijia and others immediately judged that the Soviet Air Force was going south to bomb the Guard Division.Judging from the number of fighters, there should be more than two hundred.

For this reason, Liu Nijia immediately ordered half of the escort fighters from the Second Fighter Brigade to set up an ambush in the direction of Ergen, and must wipe out those Soviet fighters.

At this time, it was the only remaining heavy bomber brigade and 72 Iraqi-16 fighters of the Ninth Army of the Soviet Air Force that went to Ergen to carry out the bombing mission. hit.The entire group army originally had more than 16 fighters, but now there are less than 3 fighters left.Of its more than [-] main combat Iraqi-[-] fighters, there are less than [-] left.The main battle bombers were completely damaged, leaving only the only TB-[-] heavy bomber brigade that was not easily used, and as for the reconnaissance planes and transport planes, there were only a hundred or so left.

In order to complete this air strike mission.Zhukov also sent out the only bomber brigade in his hand, but he did not expect that the fighter plane was ambushed by the Northern Air Force before it reached Ergen.

The northern air force has a limited time to form, so the air force is not complete. Take bombers as an example. There are only two types of bombers in the entire army. One is the b10 medium-range bomber made in the United States, and the other is the 47 strategic bomber. The strategic bomber is One of the most important military secrets of the entire northern air force, so it is not usually parked at the same airport as the fighter jets, and they have not cooperated with each other, so when the pilots of the second fighter brigade saw the Soviet heavy bomber, they were completely shocked shocked.

In the eyes of all pilots, the TB-22.6 heavy bomber with a wingspan of 16.4 meters, a length of 3.4 meters, a height of 56.7 meters and a wing area of ​​3 square meters is too huge.All the pilots rushed towards these behemoths like chicken blood. For a fighter pilot, there is nothing more gratifying than encountering bombers and transport planes. What a glory it is to shoot down such a behemoth. Everyone is crazy.

The tb-3 heavy bomber is indeed huge, but its performance is not very powerful. It is an old-fashioned aircraft developed in 1930. It has straight wings and fixed landing gear. The wing skin is varnished and the fuselage skin is corrugated. aluminum plate.Although old, it played an important role in the history of the Soviet Air Force. On March 1932, 3, the Revolutionary Military Committee of the Soviet Union adopted the "Principles of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army Air Force Organization", emphasizing the need to establish a powerful heavy bombing corps. In 23, the Soviet Union began to form a long-range aviation army. By 1933, it had 1935 TB-400s. In May 3, three special mission aviation armies were established. Each army had two heavy bomber aviation brigades, and each brigade had 1938-5 tb-2 aircraft.Become the largest heavy bomber force in the world.But these behemoths are simply weak in front of the two air artifacts of the Northern Air Force, like fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

The ambush lasted for nearly an hour, and more than 230 of the more than 160 Soviet fighter planes that invaded were shot down, and the rest fled the battlefield in an emergency.I have to admire the battlefield survivability of the tb-3 fighter. Its huge body endows it with strong vitality. Although the combat capability of the J series fighter is very strong, due to the limited ammunition it carries, at the same time, the pilots are novices who have participated in the battle less than 5 times. , I don’t know much about this new type of fighter, so there was such a funny scene on the battlefield: a huge tb-3 heavy bomber fled in a hurry with a huge body, and behind it was a dexterous J-series fighter jet. Although all the ammunition fired by the J-series fighters landed on the fuselage of the TB-3 heavy bomber, this huge fighter continued to fly forward as if nothing had happened.

It is indeed not an easy task to shoot down such a behemoth, unless it can hit the vital parts of the fighter at once.Therefore, although the Soviet Air Force was caught off guard this time, it did not wipe out the Soviet bomber fleet.

When the Northern Air Force ambushed the Soviet heavy bomber fleet, Zhukov, who received the front-line report, was shocked and immediately ordered another aviation division equipped with new fighters to take off and rushed to Ergen to reinforce the heavy bomber fleet.

However, not long after the fighter plane took off, Zhukov received a message from Zong Mod's defenders. Just 5 minutes ago, the air defense observation post in the south called and said that a large number of fighter planes just flew over their heads and came to Zong Mod. According to their contact with the front-line air force, it is not their return, it should be the Chinese Air Force who came to retaliate.

Zhukov suddenly felt that one head was two big. The matter on Ergen's side had not been resolved, and there was a new enemy situation here, and the Chinese people's actions were too big.

No way, Zhukov had no choice but to order the Ninth Aviation Division of the Tenth Army, which was going to reinforce Ergen, to go to Zongmod immediately, and at the same time ordered the Zongmod defenders to prepare for air defense immediately, and all air defense weapons were put into position, which stunned the Chinese Air Force attack.

Zhukov is very confident about Zommod's air defense operations. His confidence comes from the powerful performance of new fighters. He is not from the aviation force, nor has he served in the Air Force. He is not very clear about the pros and cons of fighter jets. But he knew Comrade Stalin's trust and love for this new fighter jet named MiG-3.It can be said that this new type of fighter is currently the highest industrial achievement of the Soviet Union. Of course, this is also the most powerful fighter in the Soviet Union, not one of them.

In fact, this fighter is indeed very good. Although today is the first time this new fighter has fought abroad, according to the news that came back an hour and a half ago, the results of this new fighter in Saiyinshanda are brilliant, at least 80 fighter planes of the Chinese Air Force were shot down.

But is this really the case?

1940年6月8日上午10点整，继赛音山达空战以及额尔根空战之后，远东上空最大规模的空战在外蒙中央省首府宗莫德上空打响，280架苏联最新装备的米格3战斗机与340架歼系列战斗机以及340架b10轰炸机在宗莫德上空相遇，双方迅速展开了一场惨烈的空中厮杀。

The intensity of the air battle far exceeded everyone's expectations. Thanks to the assistance of the radar, Colonel Li Haitao, who was in charge of the bombing mission in the direction of Zommod, received the news when the Soviet Air Force returned to Zommod. Major Li Haitao immediately ordered The escort fighter group immediately separated from the bomber group, and rushed to intercept the Soviet fighter group, while the bomber group followed up.

Soon, the 9th Aviation Division, whose fuselage was painted with camouflage and the wings painted with the Soviet Red Star logo, appeared in the sight of Li Haitao and others.This is a fighter that Li Haitao has never seen before, with a streamlined design and a single wing.

Obviously, the Soviet pilots trusted the planes below them. When Li Haitao and others found them, they also found Li Haitao and others. The two sides quickly adjusted their formation and rushed towards each other. (To be continued..)
