New World War II Eagle Strikes the Sky

() As soon as Valia uttered these words, the faces of the people around her turned black, and Boyington couldn't bear anything.You know, it's not easy to solve a rookie in 20 seconds. Now a woman actually says that she can solve Boynton in 20 seconds.Such contempt was absolutely unbearable for Boyington, who had always been quite proud of his flying skills and was somewhat machismo.

"Hmph," Boyington wanted to curse back, but his machismo habits over the years made him very reluctant to quarrel with a woman.In Boynton's view, as a man, it is shameful to quarrel with a woman, no matter why the quarrel is and no matter the outcome of the quarrel!Therefore, although Boynton was so angry that his eyes were burning, in the end, he just squeezed out this sentence:

"Try it in the sky in two days and you will know."

But Valia doesn't seem willing to stop there.She opened her mouth, as if she wanted to add two more sentences.

"Varia, you're going too far!" Ketin said, his complexion was almost uglier than that of Poynton.

Valya turned her head back, glanced at Kotin, then raised her chin proudly, and let out a soft voice from her straight and delicate nose: "Humph!"

"Varya!" Another voice rang softly, this time it was Kovzan who spoke.

Seeing that it was Kovzan, Valya lowered his head and kept silent.

Kotin saw that Valia had stopped talking, so he hurriedly said to Ron: "General Cohen, I apologize to you for Valia's words."

Now that the leader of the Soviets has expressed his apology, Ron doesn't intend to get into it.After all, going after a woman, especially a pretty one, isn't necessarily a pleasant thing to do.Besides, Ron didn't think it was incomprehensible for Valia's weird character.

Maybe it's because women living in this patriarchal society must be extra aggressive if they want to stand out, especially in the field where the traditional male sex is dominant.Not to mention Wu Zetian in ancient China, and later British politicians such as Iron Lady Thatcher, who won the national celebration after her death, as far as Go players are concerned, they have always been male players with only situational types. Positional female chess player.As long as they are female chess players, nine out of ten chess styles are bloodthirsty.And as a female fighter pilot, if she doesn't have this aggressive personality, she can't even think about having such an achievement.

As soon as the two sides met, such a thing happened, and the atmosphere behind it was naturally not very harmonious.After taking the Soviets around for a while, the person in charge of the reception took these old men to rest.

……

The sun had already sunk below the western horizon, and sparse stars had begun to appear in the sky. In the war room of the "Reverse Cross", lights were also lit.

"According to the arrangement, our first joint training with the Soviets will start in four days. The first event is mixed formation. This event is not a big problem, and there shouldn't be any trouble. Of course, that woman may be a problem. But , if she makes provocative actions in the air, everyone just ignore her. Speaking of it, today's conflict is really funny-a foreigner clashed with an American in order to maintain the reputation of American fighter jets. This is really ..."

"Hahahaha." Everyone at the meeting laughed out loud after thinking about this.

"If you want me to tell you, if you really want that..."

"If this conflict is written in the newspaper, it is estimated that nine out of ten readers will regard Dad as a Russian!"

"Okay, stop joking. Now let's discuss the key issues. In three weeks, we will conduct confrontation exercises with the Russians. We must prepare first, and we will not be really caught by others for 20 seconds. It's settled." Seeing that everyone's discussion was completely off track, Ron, who was the first to get off the topic, had to stand up and try to bring the topic back.At the same time, I was making mental complaints:

"To discuss issues, if you don't go out of the fifth floor, you must be crooked. This is the case in the Northern Dynasty, Long Kong, and even the US Army Aviation. It is really ancient and modern, and there is no exception."

"Boss, that bitch is definitely talking nonsense. There is nothing to worry about."

"That's right, those shooting down records of that girl are made up by the Soviets out of ten, and the Soviets will lie!"

"If you were from the Soviet Union," Ron asked, "you know that there will be confrontational drills later, and you will send someone who is completely bragging? Isn't that making yourself look bad? That woman's record is I don't know if it's not [-]% unmixed, but I think that none of them who can come here is easy to deal with. Therefore, we must first correct our mentality, otherwise we don't know how to die!"

"I agree with Ron's point of view." Poynton said, "Although I hate that bitch now, I don't believe that she is completely blown out."

"Okay, then we must find out their details before the confrontation drill. I don't think we..."

"This is good, we can practice first..."

……

A few days later, at the airport of the "Reverse Cross" flight team.

"The item of today's joint exercise is aerial shooting."

Before takeoff, Ron began to hand over tasks to the pilots of the United States and the Soviet Union.

"Today's design is like this. After the joint formation of fighter jets enters the exercise area from an altitude of 5000 meters, the transport plane will release the latest remote-controlled air targets at an altitude of 4000 meters. These remote-controlled air targets are equipped with booster rockets, which can Flying at a speed of 600 kilometers. Although these targets will not fire back, but these targets are much smaller than real fighters, and the flight time is also very limited. It is not easy to find and eliminate them in such a short time things..."

After explaining the mission, the pilots began to board the plane.Ron and the others were driving F4U, while the Soviets were driving their more familiar P-39 and F6F respectively.

With the roar of the engine, 12 fighter jets soared into the air one by one and flew to the predetermined airspace.

The US-Soviet joint exercise has had a feature from the very beginning, that is, the two sides have mixed formations, that is to say, in a basic two-aircraft unit, the lead plane is an American pilot, and the wingman is a Soviet pilot, and vice versa.

The advantage of this is that both sides can be familiar with each other in the previous flight exercises, and understand each other's tactical thinking and flying habits.The most aboveboard thing is that this will help build mutual trust between the pilots of the two countries, and help the two countries jointly fight against fascism.But in fact, whether it is the Americans or the Soviets, everyone understands that this arrangement has a small purpose, which is to prepare for the subsequent confrontation exercises.

In the previous several joint trainings, both sides have a certain understanding of each other.First of all, both sides let go of their contempt for each other. The Americans discovered that their Soviet teammates were highly skilled, daring, precise in action, sharp in attack, and daring to take risks.The Soviets also found the Yankee to be extremely difficult to deal with because of his delicate technique and wretched style.

But on the other hand, after discovering that the other party was difficult to deal with, the fighting spirit of both sides was aroused. The aces of the "Reverse Cross" met almost every day to study how to deal with the Soviets, and the Soviets' conference room was lit every night.

In this exercise, Valia served as the lead plane, and McGeater served as her wingman.

"We found the target at two o'clock! Two!" This time, it was McGaia, the wingman, who first spotted the target.

Valya looked forward to the right, and after about a second, she also spotted the target.Now the two target drones are flying from her lower right to lower left.

"This Yankee's eyes are really good!" Valya couldn't help thinking, "It would be great if he was a Soviet soldier who could catch the target so long in front of me. It would be difficult for the fascists to sneak attack us."

"Follow me, launch an attack!" Valia made a 180-degree roll, then pulled the control lever, and rushed towards the two target drones.

Valia did not choose the most commonly used combat method of cutting into the enemy plane at 6 o'clock. Just now, McGahr was able to find multiple targets one second earlier, which made Valia feel a kind of pressure. Therefore, Valia planned to use a high-difficulty The attack to deter this guy with super good eyes.Therefore, she chose to attack from the 9 o'clock direction of the target drone.

From this angle, the movement of the two sides makes the shooting window very small, and the difficulty of shooting is also very high.In addition, Valia is driving a p-39 fighter jet. Its 37 guns are amazingly powerful, but the shooting speed is slow and the ballistic trajectory is curved.To most pilots, using this gun to attack small fighter-type targets is like shooting a fly with a rifle.And the .50 machine guns on its wings have limited power, within such a short shooting window, it is difficult to shoot down the target drone all at once.

"What does this woman want to do?" McGaia was very surprised, but as a wingman, he still followed up.

At a distance of more than 400 meters from the target, Valia fired the first shot. The strong recoil of the 37mm gun caused her fighter plane to vibrate violently.Then, a target drone that was passing in front of her nose was directly smashed to pieces.

"My God, it's so far away, how did she get hit by this shooting method! It's like hitting a three-pointer from the bottom line in the last second of a basketball game!" McGaa was caught by the shot. Shocked dumbfounded.

However, Valia's attack did not end. She immediately made a sharp turn with a large overload, bit the back of the second target drone, and then fired a second shell, which once again sent the remaining target plane far away from her. About 100 meters away, the target drone was torn into pieces!

"This...is it okay? When did humans actually use the 39 guns of the p-37 to hit a [-]% hit rate! No wonder" this time's efficient and clean attack almost ruined McGuire's three views. "... poor Boynton, and poorer German."

McGaia had flown with Valia several times, and he always found the female pilot's flying habits weird. , because this woman always likes to make some difficult and large overload movements during the flight. Although these movements seem to help her get a shooting opportunity that is hardly a chance, in McGaher's view, they will pay a loss The cost of too fast energy is completely outweighed by the gain.But now, after seeing Valia's two guns, McGaia found that her weird flying habits suddenly became reasonable-if your plane has such a terrible gun, and you can Guaranteed to kill in one hit, it is definitely the right choice to lose some energy to fight for a chance to fire.
