Chapter 1188： Night owl fight (1/2)

In Germany, there is a special category of people called night owls. During the day, they are asleep, but at night, they wake up and drive their own fighter jets on patrols.

Yes, they are the German night fighter force. They are proud troops. They want to guard the German night sky. Any enemy bomber cannot escape their sight.

Now patrolling the sky is the 3rd Battalion of the 3rd Night Fighter Wing of Germany, which is responsible for patrolling the 600-kilometer airspace east of Berlin.

For them, the 600-kilometer combat area is not big at all. Their night fighters can fly 2,300 kilometers in the sky, and they can conduct combat patrols for seven hours, which is enough for one night.

Major Prince Heinrich-Zu-Xiayan-Wettingen, driving his He219 night fighter, patrolled the night sky.

As a German nobleman and a fanatic, Prince Wei Yangen has been piloting a night fighter for more than two years. Under his hand, the number of enemy aircraft shot down has reached eight and he is already an ace pilot. Of the standard.

This is because Germany's powerful military forces almost no enemy came to bomb them. Most of the time, they were unknown. Prince Wei Yangen's shooting down was almost always achieved when he was stationed abroad.

In history, he was the number one night fighter who shot down more than 80 enemy aircraft.

Tonight, they have received news that the Soviets dispatched three batches of bombers from the direction of the Baltic Sea, wanting to bomb Berlin, and their task is to intercept possible Soviet bombers and then destroy them!

They can’t get close to Berlin city. The dense air defense firepower there will turn any incoming enemy bombers into scum. It’s very difficult to identify enemy or friend in this era. Therefore, it is necessary to divide the defense zone. If they fly to Berlin city, they will also Under attack indiscriminately.

Their patrol area is a 600-kilometer radius with Berlin as the center. After receiving the news from the front, almost all night fighter wing took off. Therefore, each of their brigade only needs to be responsible for one area. enough.

Up to now, ground radar has not issued an early warning, and in terms of time, it is about time for the Soviets to arrive.

If the Soviets are not lost, there is only another problem. The Soviets entered from a low altitude, which made the ground warning radar unable to detect.

To deal with this kind of problem, they need their night fighter force to fly lower!

The engines on the two wings rumbling, almost rotating at idle speed. The speed of the airplane is about 200 kilometers per hour, and the altitude is only a few hundred meters above the ground. At this altitude, the sky above the head is quite empty. .

The whip antenna on the nose continuously radiated electromagnetic waves. After more than ten minutes of flying, finally, bright spots appeared on the screen of the cathode ray tube in the cabin.

Found the Soviet bomber! Moreover, as long as it can be seen on the airborne radar, it means that the other party is nearby.

”The third brigade, pay attention, find the target, continue to fly forward, and prepare to fight.” Prince Wei Yangen shouted through the radio.

The night fighters of the entire brigade were excited instantly, and the enemy was right in front of them!

At this time, they were flying eastward. Soon, they saw a huge shadow in the starlit sky. The Soviet four-engined large bomber was actually flying 800 meters in the sky. Now, their courage is really big!

It's no wonder that our ground radar can't detect it.

At this time, they looked up at the sky, and it was easy to see if they were looking for the right position, but it was not easy to spot them with the Soviet bombers higher than them.

In this way, the two sides flew in a staggered manner. After that, the night fighters drew a half circle in the airspace ahead, and they turned.
