genius war girl

Chapter 49 Discussion
Otowa originally wanted to play some small games with Meixiang to deepen their relationship tonight, but a message from Jesnia made her change her mind.

The message Jesnia sent her was simple, probably because the weight of this competition had been set, and she and Meixiang were asked to choose the vehicles for the competition early.

"What's the matter, Otowa-san?"

Seeing Otowa's expression suddenly changed, Meixiang couldn't help but tilt her head.

"The weight of the competition has been set, it is 4.3, and Jesnia told us to quickly select the fighters for the competition."

"Jesnia... is that girl you met this morning?"

"That's right, but she's the deputy minister of aviation."

"Hey, she's the deputy minister!?"

It's no wonder that Meixiang was surprised. After all, Jesnia's performance in the morning was too bad. It's hard to imagine that she is actually the deputy director of the Oarai Aviation Department.

"It just so happens that Meixiang is here today, why don't we decide on the fighter plane tonight." Otoyu paused, and then continued: "We don't have much time left, the sooner we choose the fighter plane, the more we can have." Time to practice."

"Well, aren't the participating planes unified?"

After hearing Otowa's words, Mika seemed a little puzzled, and asked the same question as Otowa did back then.

"Our Oarai style is like this. We use fighters with different performances to cooperate with each other, so as to develop tactics to defeat the enemy."

"That's not our turn to choose..."

"Jesnia told me that as newcomers, we will choose the plane first, and then let them fill the seats."

This is also a tradition of Oarai, but it is aimed at specially recruited talented pilots. The recruits recruited in batches at the beginning of each year do not have this privilege.

There is no doubt that Otowa and Mika are naturally "genius pilots".

Although there is no computer in Otowa's dormitory, fortunately, the functions of mobile phones in the 22nd century are quite powerful and can replace computers to a large extent.

"4.3... what kind of vehicles are there?"

Otowa directly logged into the official website of the War Game Alliance with his mobile phone, and then opened the search bar.After setting the weight of 4.3, a bunch of fighters quickly appeared.

Because Yin Yu is the kind of person who will die if he doesn't take advantage, she directly searched for 4.3 fighters, and didn't drag 3.7 and 4.0 into the candidate list.

The speed of the search was quite fast, and a bunch of fighter planes were quickly refreshed.

“我看看……美系的P-51D-5，德系的BF109G-2和FW190A-4，苏系的雅克-9T和雅克-9K，英系的台风MK.IB后期型，日系的零战22型甲和三式战一型丁。”

"They're all nice planes."

Judging by Meixiang's appearance, it's not like she doesn't know anything about airplanes, so Otowa was relieved.

Otowa turned his attention to the first aircraft, the American P-51D-5.

The beautiful P-51D/K with bubble canopy is the most famous model in the Mustang family, and it is also the most produced and widely used model, with a total of 9 produced, and Inglewood produced 602 P -6D, Dallas produced 502 P-51Ds and 1 P-600Ks.

"The P-51D-5 of the American series is characterized by fast speed. It is probably the best among the eight aircraft. Its high-altitude performance is also quite good. It can outshine the other eight fighters at an altitude of 6000 meters. In addition, the bubble The excellent visibility afforded by the canopy cannot be overlooked."

As soon as Otowa finished speaking, Mika raised objections.

"However, Otowa-san, the shortcomings of this fighter are quite obvious. First of all, its climb is slow, and its acceleration is not very good. Compared with other fighters, its maneuverability has no advantage at low and medium altitudes."

"This is also a problem, especially since the battle on the ground has to be taken care of in this competition, so the height of the battle should not be very high."

Otowa nodded, agreeing with Mika's statement.

Seeing that Otoyu recognized her, Meixiang also received a lot of encouragement, and soon spoke again.

"And firepower is also a problem. Although the paper data of the six 6mm machine guns is beautiful, it is difficult to quickly destroy the enemy aircraft in actual combat. In addition, although there are 12.7 rounds of ammunition in reserve, the distribution of ammunition points is not the same. Uneven, the two inner machine guns have 1880 rounds of ammunition, while the four outer machine guns have only 400 rounds of ammunition, once the ammunition of the outer machine guns is exhausted, only two machine guns can be used to attack."

Otoyu was a little surprised, she didn't expect Meixiang to know such little knowledge.

Even Otowa had to admit that he still underestimated Meixiang.

"It's a pity, I still want to try the legendary K-14 automatic gyro sight."

Yin Yu sighed, and shook his head helplessly.

The design of the K-14 automatic gyro sight is based on the technology of the British company Ferranti.When this sight first appeared, it was considered a miracle.The pilot only needs to set the scale of the enemy aircraft's wingspan, and cover the enemy aircraft with the halo on the sight reflector, and adjust the size of the halo to be consistent with the target's wingspan through the knob on the throttle lever. Pull the trigger, and the calculation of the advance amount is all handled by the analog computer.

P-51 can have such a brilliant record, the K-14 automatic gyro sight can be said to be indispensable.

After hearing Otowa's words, Mika just smiled.

"Otowa-san's artillery skills are so good, using automatic sights will only affect you."

“好了，P-51先放到这，先看看德系的BF109G-2和FW190A-4吧。”

After Otowa finished speaking, he turned his gaze to the two planes below.

The G in BF109G-2 stands for Gustav, which is also the model with the largest output in the BF109 series.A total of 10 models were officially in service, with a total production of more than 10 aircraft. All day fighter units and 000 client countries used this fighter extensively until the end of the war.

According to the military's original requirements, the G-type will sacrifice mobility in exchange for higher speed. The entire design revolves around the heavier DB605 engine, requiring an enhanced airframe structure to withstand this more powerful engine, and the important increase in the airframe will inevitably require The landing gear was strengthened, which again brought about an increase in weight.The consequences are unquestionable, greater wing loads and reduced maneuverability.
