: 0.058s Scan: 0.044sWhile the Sun Never Sets people were busy discussing at home how to prevent the bombing of the Hans Air Force and how to develop advanced fighters and bombers in their own country.
The military parade in the Iron Tower City was also coming to an end.
When more than 300,000 troops slowly walked through the square, the people of the Iron Tower City heard a series of familiar voices!
Many people’s faces suddenly changed after hearing this voice, and they subconsciously wanted to escape!
They were too familiar with this voice. Wasn’t this the roar of the German bombers when the German army attacked them before?
That’s right, the German army that appeared in the air was the same group of German troops that attacked the Iron Tower City!
The first thing that appeared in everyone’s sight was a goose formation composed of 120 BF-109 fighters. This kind of fighter is very different from the traditional fighters in people’s impression.
The single-wing shape, metal shell and swift speed all surprised people!
President Roosevelt had just envied the No. 4 tank of the Hans family and instructed Marshall to copy the No. 4 tank of Hans as soon as possible after returning!
And at this moment, when he saw Hans’s family’s advanced fighter jets, he could no longer take his eyes off them!
“What kind of plane is this? Why is it so fast and completely different from the planes we have seen before?”
President Roosevelt asked in surprise.
Marshall also looked up, staring at the large group of black planes above his head, and he was also very shocked.
“This should be the latest type of fighter jet of the German army, right? The specific model is not very clear, but this fighter jet was first used in the previous blitzkrieg against Poland. It should be a plane secretly developed by the German army. It should not have been in service for a long time, and the number should not be large. When the air battle over Benelux was fierce, the German army only dispatched less than 600 fighter jets!”
“Six hundred? I remember that the British and Gauls had nearly 3,000 planes in total. How could they gain air superiority with only six hundred fighters?”
Roosevelt had served in the navy before. Because the Eagle Sauce had no air force but only naval aviation, he had seen the navy’s fighter planes.
When the number gap between the two sides is too large, one side can completely rely on the advantage of its military strength to continuously consume the other side and eventually kill all the enemies.
The gap between the Allied and German aircraft reached five times, which was a terrifying level. So based on Roosevelt’s experience, he felt that the Allies should be sure to win this time, but the final result was that the Allies were defeated. What was the reason?
“According to the intelligence we have, the Allied Air Force was defeated by this type of aircraft!”
Marshall sighed. Before the war, the Allied forces had similar ideas to President Roosevelt. They also felt that they had a huge advantage in military strength, so they were sure to win.
As a result, they found that the modern air force was completely different from what they thought. The German fighter planes were fewer in number than theirs, but their performance was higher than theirs. As a result, they were suppressed by the Germans in the air battle without any suspense!
Both the Gauls and the British lacked knowledge of Hans’ fighter planes. They were still using the original tactics to deal with the Germans, but were defeated by the German fighting groups and double-plane formations.
After losing air superiority, the Germans quickly dispatched dive bombers and strategic bombers to bomb dozens of Allied airports on the front line!
Because the Allied fighter planes had a shorter range, in order to be able to Let the planes participate in the war. Their airports are all near the battlefield, which makes the German air raid very smooth. In less than a week, most of the Allied fighter planes were written off on the ground!
Suffering heavy losses in the air battle, and then being bombed to pieces by the enemy’s bombers, the Allied Air Force suffered heavy losses and was no longer able to continue fighting. It could only run with its tail between its legs.
After the Benelux air battle, the Gaul planes withdrew to the southern region. As a result, after the surrender, all of them were confiscated by Hans.
The British Air Force withdrew to the mainland and has not reappeared until now. It is estimated that it is hiding at home licking its wounds.
Marshall is very concerned about the war in Europe. He had a lot of information, but there was very little information about the new German fighter. He could only get so much information from the British and French soldiers. It was difficult to get more detailed information about the performance of this fighter! The
German army attached great importance to this fighter, so the confidentiality was very good, even stricter than that of the Panzer IV!
Although the Panzer IV was advanced, it could be imitated by the technology of various countries in the world. Even if they had some flaws in the power system and hydraulic suspension system, the tanks they manufactured were heavier and faster. Even though it was slow and less stable, they could still figure it out in the end.
Tanks, if they were not used for clustered assaults and armored warfare like Hans, then it didn’t matter if they were a little bulky and had poor performance. Anyway, they only needed a speed of about 30 kilometers, and usually acted as mobile fortresses and firepower points, cooperating with infantry to attack enemy positions, which could already meet the needs of various countries!
As for organizing thousands of tanks for blitzkrieg like Hans did, it required the support of a special tactical system, the leadership of professional and outstanding generals, and a large number of middle-level backbones to operate.
Now, only Hans has the strength and conditions to do so. Even if other countries have built tanks, they still need to train a qualified armored officer and establish their own armored combat system.���It takes a long time, and it can’t be accomplished overnight!
So if you imitate the basic parameters of the No. 4 tank, as long as you build it, it will basically work. Even if you are not satisfied with the performance, you can change it while using it in the future, without rushing.
But the air force is completely different!
The technical content of the air force is obviously higher. The construction of a fighter involves a lot of knowledge in all aspects, including design level, engine level, special material manufacturing level, technical level of electronic equipment, etc. The reason why the German BF-109 fighter is so powerful is that they use a brand-new aerodynamic layout and appearance design, use more powerful engines, more advanced electronic equipment and more reliable spare parts!
Among them, the aerodynamic layout and appearance design and engine technology are the most critical!
Fighter jets are not like tanks that can be used as long as they can be imitated. Fighter jets are worth every penny. If the performance of any aspect is slightly worse, it may become its Achilles heel, and it will become their life gate in future air battles!
Therefore, even if countries took photos of the BF-109 fighter’s appearance and imitated it, they could not solve the problem of insufficient engine performance.
Although Marshall had never served in the Air Force, he was relatively knowledgeable about fighter jets. So, without waiting for President Roosevelt to ask, he took the initiative to say,”It will be difficult for us to imitate this kind of fighter unless we have a thorough understanding of the core technology, including all the technology from design drawings to various spare parts!”
After hearing his words, President Roosevelt opened his mouth and swallowed back what he was about to say.
He did want to ask Marshall if he could imitate this fighter, but the other party denied it so firmly that he didn’t say it out loud.
“It seems that Hans has hidden a lot of things from us! They are much stronger than we thought!”
“If only we had these advanced equipment!”
