Chapter 668 (1/2)
The tb-3 bomber has only three self-defense machine guns, which is far from enough. However, after the bomber formation, it can form a defense network with the help of friendly aircraft to protect itself.
However, this kind of defense network is not airtight. The best way to protect bombers is to escort fighters forever!
Sitting in the turret and looking at the Finnish fighters flying outside the glass frame, Ivanov was very nervous. He was a recruit only last year. Because he passed various rotation tests, he became a machine gunner.
He looked at the flying two plane formation, expanding his vision, his palms began to sweat, and the battle was about to begin!
But then, he only saw the other party continue to climb, brush from his front and top of his head, and fly to the back.
Even if you don't fly a plane and just play an air combat game, you should know that the contact time between the two sides is very short when flying head-on. It's difficult to get results if you launch an attack in a hurry at this time.
So Bruce pulled the nose and flew over the other side. Then he pulled the lever hard to push the rudder.
The sky was spinning, the blood was surging, and the huge overload made his eyes red. He looked at his dashboard with the rest of his eyes. Just now, he made a big overload turn.
When his eyes became clear again, he had seen the huge bomber group under himself. At this time, he was already behind the other party!
How to attack bomber formation? Of course, fly to the top of each other's back, and then dive down from the back!
That's what Bruce did.
He pushed his joystick and took his wingman down from the sky!
In the field of vision, the outline of the DB-3 bomber became clearer and clearer. The twin engine structure and the rear turret were seen so clearly. Then, a flame erupted from the other side's rear turret.
7.62mm machine gun, fire violently!
Ivanov just saw the other party flying over his head, he kept looking up his neck. Sure enough, he found that the other party had drawn a beautiful arc and attacked in turn!
He put the other party in his sight and fired. Unfortunately, his bullet couldn't hit the other party at all!
There are many things to pay attention to when shooting in the air. A simple mechanical sight should take into account many other factors, such as wind speed, gravity, etc. even in later generations, before the machine gun hotline appeared, machine gun shooting in the air was a technical job.
It looks powerful. In fact, the bullet is far from Bruce.
Bruce continued to dive faster and faster. He pressed the shooting button almost 500 meters away.
”Bang, bang!” 20 mm machine guns, two guns fired at the same time. In an instant, the engine on the left wing of the other party emitted billowing black smoke, and the fire soon spread!
The performance of legal fighters is not very good, but almost used pilots will praise the above guns.
Quickly pulling the nose, Bruce's plane turned from dive to climb. The wingman behind him saw the other side. There was no need to replenish the gun.
The DB-3 bomber rolled and fell down. This is just the beginning!
