Chapter 681: Missile attack (1/2)
South East London, Air Force Base.
A sharp sirens sounded over the base. After hearing the sirens, the pilots in flight suits hurried to their planes.
Germany's ability to wreak havoc on the European continent is inseparable from the advanced nature of their fighter jets. Fortunately, the United Kingdom is not weak in this regard. The British Spitfire is the only model that can rival German fighters.
In recent months, Britain has been producing this latest fighter at full force.
At this time, more than thirty Spitfire fighters were deployed at this base.
”Quick, quick, take off immediately!” As they stepped into the cockpit, the squadron captain's call came from the headset.
”Where are we going to fly?” a pilot asked over the radio.
The sirens sounded and there was a combat mission, but right now, the surrounding sky was pitch black. If you take off blindly, there would be no result at all. Those who can intercept the enemy bomber are definitely the luckiest.
”No matter where you go, take off first!” The command of the squadron commander came again, making the pilots stunned. What is this mission? Take off first?
In a hurry, the squadron leader’s aircraft had already started the engine and rolled towards the runway. At this time, the runway lights were shining and facing the runway, the squadron commander pushed the throttle to fully open and rolled quickly on the runway. Then take off.
In order to prevent morale from being affected, the situation of the German missiles is currently only known to the squadron leader level personnel. After all, the thing cannot be intercepted.
And now, the opponent must have launched this missile attack again! In order to avoid the loss of the plane, we must fly first!
After he took off quickly, the planes behind followed suit and took off one after another.
However, it takes time. At night, even if it is illuminated by lights, it is dangerous to take off in dense formations. Only one plane takes off.
Just as the fifth fighter jet slid onto the runway and was waiting for takeoff, there was a special noise above their heads.
The personnel at the base couldn't help but look to the sky. In the dark sky, they couldn't see anything. The light of the searchlight turned back and forth in the sky, and found nothing.
”Look!” a soldier shouted loudly. Just two kilometers away from the base, there was a fire! The flame is so dazzling that it can be seen clearly here.
Six or seven seconds after the fire appeared, a huge explosion sounded.
”Damn it, that's a bomb! How did the German bomb come?” a soldier shouted.
Just after shouting, there was also a huge explosion just above their heads.
”boom!”
”boom!”
Although various improvements have been made, the hit rate of the V-2 missile is still not comparable to that of later generations. For this reason, the method adopted by the German missile force is of course to increase the number!
Ten missiles flew over every air base!
In this way, even if the hit rate is only 20%, it can be guaranteed that at least two missiles will hit the base.
Two are enough!
This kind of missile does not explode when it hits the ground. It explodes in the sky when it is hundreds of meters above the ground.
Countless people, with their horrified eyes, looked at the missile that exploded in the sky. Then, like a goddess, more tiny bombs rolled down.
Bullets!
To deal with targets such as airports, using sub-munitions is the most suitable way! With the explosion, one after another small bombs splashed to every corner of the entire base.
The explosion sound appeared constantly.
