Chapter 1338： 1 go ahead (2/2)

Pushing his joystick, HS129 began to dive down from the clouds.

On the Red Caucasus, the anti-aircraft gunners were waiting.

The Soviet Union is good at learning. When the Germans used air superiority to kill the British warships in Scarpa Bay, the shock of the Soviet navy was unparalleled.

They looked around and found that their warships couldn't stop such bombing at all, so they were also making rapid improvements.

Therefore, the Red Caucasus has been equipped with a variety of anti-aircraft weapons from its service to the present.

It was originally installed with a 1914-1915-style 76mm anti-aircraft gun, and later it was replaced with an Italian 100mm ”Minizini” anti-aircraft gun. It was also equipped with a 1935-style 34-K 76mm anti-aircraft gun.

At this time, in the middle of the ship's hull, the position of the Italian 100mm ”Minizni” anti-aircraft gun had begun to fire into the sky.

This type of artillery is the main force of high-altitude air defense. It is an Italian production model that imported the K10 and K11 artillery from the Skoda Arsenal in the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

The maximum range is 19570 meters, and the maximum height is 10,000 meters. It can kill or drive away the opponent's aircraft from a long distance.

”Boom, boom!” The double-mounted gun barrels alternately emitted two black smoke, and two high-explosive shells flew out of the gun barrel and flew toward the target in the sky.

With the firing, the gun sits behind him, looking quite imposing.

At the same time, it is still firing intermittently without interruption.

”Boom, boom!”

The angle of the turret was fine-tuned. The second round of firing began before the first shot could reach the target. At this critical juncture, the Soviet high artillery broke out to the greatest potential. The performance is used to the extreme.

Twelve shells can be fired in one minute~~One round in five seconds, and each time the double tube fires two shells. And such antiaircraft artillery, on the Red Caucasus, arranged four!

If you look from the air, the Red Caucasus at this time is like a hedgehog, with thorns all over its body, and the continuous shots seem to kill any enemy aircraft that dared to dive down.

However, in the eyes of Lieutenant Steinkamp, ​​this is simply a bluff.

For an excellent attack aircraft pilot, they are not afraid of large-caliber anti-aircraft guns. Although they shoot high, the rate of fire of such anti-aircraft guns is slow, and the distance is far, so the advance is large, and the aircraft maneuvering avoids , It is easy to avoid.

Unless there is a killer like a proximity fuze, its hit rate is quite low. In contrast, the small-caliber rapid-fire gun is more threatening. For example, current pilots are unwilling to face Bofors. The antiaircraft artillery dived, and they had to cooperate with tactics to destroy it.

Continue to dive!

In the firepower net of the Red Caucasus and the anti-aircraft artillery of other warships, the HS129 has never moved forward.
