Chapter 26 Decoy Tactics
"It's two MC.202s. The ones that can survive until now are probably not target drones. It's better to pay attention."

With amazing eyesight, Otowa quickly identified the incoming enemy.

"Two planes side by side, it's Double Attack, we should have exposed it." Otowa paused for a moment, and then continued: "The pincer attack tactic is still used, but the mobility of the MC. fight."

"Well, Otowa-san, I have an opinion..."

Mei Xiang's voice was full of hesitation, as if a little embarrassed.

This is the first time that Mika has commented on Otowa's tactics. After the initial surprise, Otowa immediately looked forward to it.

"Yeah, tell me, Meixiang."

Compared with a robot that can only execute orders, Otowa wants a good friend who can give advice at any time as a wingman.

"My cannon ammunition is exhausted, and it is difficult to deal damage with only two 7.92mm machine guns, so I think it is better to use decoy tactics here. I will attract the enemy, and then Otowa-san will attack."

"Bait tactics..., I have no problem here, but Meixiang, can you hold it?"

"No problem, and I believe Otowa-san will be able to kill the enemy right away!"

Seeing Meixiang's persistence, Otowa couldn't say anything more, and once this tactic is successful, it can indeed kill the enemy as quickly as possible.

The MC.202's firepower is relatively average, with only two 7.62mm machine guns and two 12.7mm machine guns. The chances of Meixiang being shot down in one face-to-face are not high.

As long as Meixiang survives the initial stage, Otowa can quickly kill two enemies and she will come out.

Soon, the four planes on both sides made contact.

The two MC.202s on the opposite side scattered to the left and right, using pincer attack tactics.

On Yinyu's side, he was not in a hurry, and waited until the other side had completed the preliminary turn before starting to turn.

Meixiang didn't turn the fighter plane at full speed, but deliberately exposed the belly of the fighter plane to the opponent.

Looking at the gleaming belly of the aircraft, the other side also bit the hook very honestly, shooting a round of shots at Meixiang's belly.

Although Meixiang's BF109 was hit many times at this time, the firepower of MC.202 was still slightly insufficient, and did not cause any substantial damage.

A round of attack failed, and the MC.202 followed directly, biting the six points of Meixiang's BF109, and trying to shoot down Meixiang slowly.

It was even later for Yin Yu to turn around. She waited until the enemy plane started to turn around, and then she hurriedly started to turn.

The angle Otowa chose was very tricky, so the enemy planes could not attack her before the two planes crossed each other.

After the enemy plane crossed Otowa, its nose was pointed at Mika's side.

Otowa happened to be in the blind spot of the enemy pilot's vision at this time, so the enemy plane didn't think much, and directly rushed towards Mika's BF109.

Now Meixiang has attracted the firepower of two enemy planes at the same time, but with continuous rolling (secret technique: repeated horizontal jumps!), her fighter planes are still safe.

While Mika was holding down the two enemy planes, Otowa had already quickly completed the turn by relying on the combat flaps, and came to the back of the two enemy planes.

Turning on the combat flaps can increase the lift of the wing surface and enhance the hovering performance of the fighter, but it will also increase the energy loss of the aircraft, so this double-edged sword must be used carefully.

The attention of the two enemy planes was focused on Meixiang, they probably didn't expect Otowa to come back so soon.

Otowa quickly aimed at an enemy plane and immediately launched an attack.

Almost at the same time Otowa pulled the trigger, the tail of the MC.202 locked by her exploded.

Under the huge destructive power of the thin-shell bullet, the tail of this MC.202 lost a piece in an instant.With such severe aerodynamic damage, the enemy plane immediately lost its balance.

Yin Yu didn't bother with the fighter plane anymore. Even if the pilot on the other side could forcibly level the plane, it would be nothing more than hanging meat, and there would be time to clean it up later.

"Mei Xiang, turn right at full speed!"

"Oh!"

After receiving Otowa's order, Mika immediately turned the plane to the right.

The enemy plane following Meixiang hadn't noticed that her wingman had been shot down by Otowa, so she still chose to follow Mei closely.

The advantage of the invisible ammunition belt is clearly evident here. If Otowa’s ammunition belt contains tracer bullets, it must have been discovered by the enemy by now.

The wrong decision of the enemy plane not only allowed Otowa to quickly close the distance between her and her, but also exposed a large section to Otowa.

Naturally, Otowa would not let go of such an excellent attack window, and a shuttle of thin-shell bullets was thrown out on the spot.

The pilot of this enemy plane was still shooting desperately at Meixiang's BF109. It wasn't until the fuselage shook suddenly that she realized that half of the right wing was missing.

Until Zheyue left, she didn't think about how she was shot down, and even began to suspect that the quality of the fighter plane was broken when it turned.

"How's the status of the fighter plane, Meixiang?"

"The fighter plane is fine, but it was really scary just now." Meixiang sighed, and then continued: "I heard the sound of bullets hitting the seat, and I thought I was going to die."

BF109 has installed a bulletproof steel plate behind the driver's seat since the E3 type, and it was this thing that saved Meixiang's life just now.

"Ahaha, you'll be fine once you get used to it."

Otowa scratched the back of his head while speaking on the radio.

……

It was not just the four pilots who witnessed this air battle, there were also four people watching the battle in the remote control tower.

"Very well, Master Betty did not misread the wrong person."

After the results of the air battle on the screen were determined, Betty nodded in satisfaction.

"Yes, yes, Lord Betty is the best."

Jesnia is still quite helpless, very speechless to Betty.

There were a total of four people present, except for these two from the aviation department, they were the instructor duo.

"Isn't it just slaughtering chickens, I can do it too!"

Iida Nana still looked unconvinced, but anyone could hear the sourness in her words.

"Okay, Nai, it's about time for you to recognize the reality. The current state is not pretty."

Nanase still had the image of a caring big sister, so she enlightened Nana Iida on the spot.

"Tsk."

Even so, Iida Nana was still a little upset.

But she also has to admit that Otoyu is stronger now, so she can only endure her discomfort.

PS: I saw someone asking what BZ and TB are in the comments, so I will simply copy and paste them here:

The ideal state of air combat victory is to leave the downed target completely in the dark, neither knowing who the attacker is nor where he came from.This is the famous BZ tactic, and the high-speed dive-rapid climb (Boom and Zoom, BZ) tactic is the best interpretation of this concept. BOOM means high-speed dive to attack low-altitude and low-speed targets, and then immediately climb at a large angle (ZOOM) to win back the altitude.If you are at low altitude and high speed, then you have kinetic energy; if you are at high altitude and low speed, then you have potential energy;

TB, the English name is "turnback", which means "turning up, turning around, turning around", so the TB machine is an aircraft that uses "turning around" as its style of play. The advantage of this type of aircraft is that it can quickly Turn around and attack the enemy plane with a very short turning radius. A TB machine with excellent performance can even be in the attack position when the enemy has just completed half of the turning radius.Everyone can imagine this at this time: a certain TB aircraft meets the enemy aircraft, and after the intersection, they each start to turn around. When the enemy aircraft has just completed half of the rotation, the TB aircraft has already spouted flames." This is the TB aircraft. Excellent radius of gyration, excellent flexibility, the aircraft is as flexible as a dancer on the stage of the sky, and it attacks like a boning steel knife.
