Chapter 308 Missiles vs. Propeller Aircraft

The radar of the Shanghai Air Force was a war trophy captured from the Kuomintang army.

Although it's not advanced, it's still capable of detecting approaching aircraft.

Although Chen Huai'an brought a batch of radars from the meteorological bureau, it would take time to set them up.

Only after this wave of attacks is repelled can the radar be gradually upgraded.

Moreover, there is no rush to install these advanced machines sent from the future world before it is confirmed whether Shanghai's firepower can hold out.

If it gets destroyed in a bombing, that would be a real shame!

So a large generator set was left hidden in the suburbs, and we didn't dare to assemble it immediately.

The concern was that they might become enemy targets during bombing raids.

However, the factory is already under construction, and once it's completed, we can basically move in.

Therefore, air raids posed a fatal threat to Shanghai's development.

Without destroying these air forces, we cannot carry out production and construction with peace of mind!

With the sounds coming from the phone from time to time, the radar station reported the distance every minute.

The plane was traveling directly overhead.

Commander Chiang Kai-shek specifically chose this location for its position, not only because it offered good concealment, but also because it was a necessary route.

The shortest route for launching an airstrike from the direction of Zhoushan is along this line.

"Prepare for battle!"

At Commander Jiang's order, all the soldiers took their positions and went to their battle posts.

It was clear that every soldier's face showed signs of tension.

These soldiers are tough guys who have come from the battlefield and are not afraid of death.

Therefore, the tension is not about facing enemy aircraft, but about the advanced weapons in front of us.

After all, the time was too short, and there wasn't enough time for systematic training.

The weapons delivered last night will be used in actual combat after only a brief intensive training session.

This would be unimaginable in modern times.

Even mercenaries on the Russia-Ukraine battlefield have a two-week training period.

Proficient in weapon handling, tactical coordination, and relevant battlefield precautions.

Although there are rumors that the two-week training has been shortened to seven days.

But it's still a week, isn't it?

Our soldiers had only undergone a crash training session an hour earlier.

"Like this, like this, then launch!"

A single sentence of instruction was all it took to complete the on-the-job training.

Let alone in modern times, it would be astonishing even in this era.

But the enemy didn't give us any time to learn, so even if we were unfamiliar with the material, we had no choice but to grit our teeth and go for it.

Several soldiers gathered around the HQ-2 missile and began adjusting it according to the instructions given.

The other five soldiers carried the Qianwei-1 portable anti-aircraft missile.

Every soldier's face reflected a mixture of tension and excitement.

The way the soldiers spread their five fingers and then close them when gripping the handle reflects their tense state of mind.

The worst fear is that if the first shot misses, precious missiles will be wasted, and the troops will lose face.

As time passed, without the need for radar station reports, the sounds coming from the sky could be faintly heard.

At an altitude of one kilometer, six P-51 Mustang fighter jets approached.

"This is outrageous! This is outrageous! They're taking advantage of the fact that we don't have anti-aircraft weapons!"

Commander Jiang frowned deeply, his face revealing intense anger.

The fact that six Mustang fighters were only at an altitude of one thousand meters is simply a contempt for the air force.

They dared to be so arrogant only because they were certain they had no air defense weapons.

In fact, during the layout process, in order to make it more realistic and to reassure enemy aircraft to approach boldly.

They deliberately referred to the two anti-aircraft guns as one in the telegram.

Moreover, ammunition is scarce, and it can only be counted by the number of rounds fired, so there's no way to conserve it during peacetime!

With ammunition for an anti-aircraft gun limited to a single round, what is there to fear?

They had even prepared a battle plan before they arrived.

Six fighter jets dove in unison; a mere anti-aircraft gun, without even ammunition, probably didn't even know which one it was aiming at.

Once this only anti-aircraft gun is destroyed, there will be no more danger in the sky.

Therefore, the six escorting Mustang fighters arrived at the "military airfield" mentioned in the briefing ahead of time.

Pressing the joystick down means diving down to straf the enemy from a kilometer away.

Moreover, their plan to dive to a height of 200 meters before opening fire was extremely arrogant.

Two old-fashioned anti-aircraft guns and five Type 74 twin-barreled anti-aircraft guns on the ground are ready for battle.

If the missile interception fails, the anti-aircraft guns will open fire!

Commander Jiang's brows furrowed in anger, and he roared furiously, "Shoot them down for me!"

Immediately, six soldiers carrying shoulder-mounted portable missiles operated them according to their training.

It locked onto the Mustang fighter that had begun its dive.

At this moment, the Mustang fighter jets were positioned to the side of the woods, completely unaware that there was an ambush hidden inside.

Moreover, advanced anti-aircraft missiles have already locked onto it.

The six pilots grinned maliciously as they swooped down on what appeared to be an aircraft.

In the woods, the flag bearer, in command, forcefully lowered the red flag: "Raise it!"

Swish swish~!

In an instant, six QW-1 portable air defense missiles shot straight into the sky, trailing long plumes of flame.

Using missiles capable of attacking high-speed jet aircraft to attack propeller planes is somewhat bullying.

The Qianwei-1 portable air defense missile has a speed of 600 meters per second, approximately Mach 1.76.

The maximum speed of the P=51 Mustang fighter jet was only 195 meters per second.

Once locked on, there's no chance of escape.

Moreover, they are currently in a dive and have no idea that a missile is flying at high speed from their side.

They were fully focused, preparing to attack the ground target.

boom!

It wasn't until a loud bang and a burst of fire from the side that the pilots were alerted.

Unfortunately, when they found out, they only saw that one of their companions' planes had been blown to pieces, cut in half and disintegrated!

Meanwhile, the remaining five pilots also spotted the rapidly approaching missile.

The captain frantically shouted, reminding his team members to pull up and avoid the attack.

He gritted his teeth, pulled the diving plane up, and suddenly turned to the right to dodge.

Unfortunately, they were already locked on by missiles, so how could they possibly have a chance to escape?

The five pilots didn't even have a chance to parachute; they turned into five balls of flame and crashed to the ground along with the burning fighter jet.

This is only because the J-6 fighter jets haven't been delivered yet; otherwise, they could easily achieve a 0-6 score against propeller-driven aircraft.

Meanwhile, five B-25 medium bombers, which were far behind, also discovered that their escort fighters had been shot down.

They hurriedly shouted and began to climb, quickly ascending from 3,000 meters to 7000 meters.

At this altitude, even the Type 74 twin-barreled anti-aircraft gun would be beyond its maximum range.

However, this battle was not for testing the anti-aircraft guns.

That was used to fight infantry and fortifications.

As the command flag was lowered, a missile with a long trail of flame rose into the sky, like an arrow piercing the clouds.

The five bombers, thinking they had reached a safe distance, were hurling insults at the ground.

He figured he could just drop bombs randomly, complete the mission, and then go back.

boom!

A missile struck the fuselage from below, causing a violent explosion!
