Although a large circle slow roll is also a 360-degree roll, it is different from a roll where the nose of the aircraft is raised to maintain energy or the nose of the aircraft is lowered to avoid attacks. It is a roll where the defensive aircraft rolls towards the belly of the attacking aircraft and always ensures the entire maneuver. All actions are performed on the plane of the wing.
The defender can roll around the attacking aircraft, but the attacking aircraft is not a helicopter. It can neither change direction nor retreat almost stationary. It can only move forward or pull up or dive.
This is like a person A holding a rifle, preparing to shoot another person B holding a rifle but not pulling the bolt, who is one meter away. At this time, the defender B does not retreat, but steps forward to press against the attacker A. And try to let attacker A's gun go behind him instead of staying in front of him.
If defender B retreats, A's gun will always be pointed at him no matter how he escapes.
If Zhou Zhihan moved forward, the N010 Messerschmitt immediately recovered and bit the rear hemisphere of the A214 Spitfire.
A214 Spitfire dive.
This was beyond Molders' expectations. Without thinking too much, he immediately recovered from a flat shot, performed a precise 90-degree rollover, and then bit down.
A214 Spitfire dived at full speed.
The No. 010 Messerschmitt throttle was pushed to the bottom, and its dive became more fierce, quickly closing the distance.
Molders had been hearing from other squadron pilots in the past few days that the Royal Air Force pilots seemed to have found a way to break the Messerschmitt dive, and he did not believe it.
Twenty-one of his twenty-four kills were against opponents in dives, including Spitfires, Hurricanes, Dreadnoughts, Blenheims and P36 fighters, a Messerschmitt high-speed fighter capable of fighting in and Low-speed fighter jets have an advantage in confrontation, so how can they be easily cracked?
From the rearview mirror, I saw the yellow nose of the Messerschmitt getting closer and closer. The A214 Spitfire did a 360-degree right rear roll at the right time, and rolled towards the rear of the belly of the N010 Messerschmitt. Turn? Instantly broke the opponent's diving attack.
"pretty!"
Although Major Moldes was well prepared, he still couldn't help but praise the opponent. The opponent's 360-degree roll to the right not only broke his own dive, but also allowed him to immediately switch from defense to offense. The timing and angle of the roll were very good. Sophisticated to the extreme.
Molders concluded that even if other British pilots could use this trick to roll backwards 360 degrees, they would not be able to do it as exquisitely as the A214 Spitfire. At most, they could just get rid of Messerschmitt's dive attack? More Don't switch from defense to offense.
Moldes did not continue forward like other German pilots, but retracted the throttle to the end, pressed the right lever, and pushed the rudder? He did a right roll in one go? He unloaded the Messerschmitt and quickly dived. The accumulated speed caused the elevator to respond slowly and was difficult to correct and control. It passed over the back of the A214 Spitfire and made a small turn to continue to take the lead? Trying to capture the offensive position in the rear hemisphere of the A214 Spitfire.
"Wonderful!"
Zhou Zhihan couldn't help but blurt out, praising Moldes' wonderful change of positions!
In this encounter, the two sides were still evenly matched, and they both felt sympathy for each other at the same time.
Facing such an opponent, Zhou Zhihan could not give the opponent another chance to shoot. He had only had his taillight smashed by Moldes when he shot down the Messerschmitt N377. It was very dangerous to be bitten by such an opponent.
Have the Texans gone? Entering the fire shelter of the Allied convoy fleet, Zhou Zhihan could no longer contact Major White and Warrant Officer Dill, indicating that their aircraft was at least 30 kilometers away. The rescue mission was successfully completed. Zhou Zhihan no longer has any scruples and can fight freely.
At this time, the communication distance between pilots in a squadron is limited to 30 kilometers.
A214 Spitfire pressed the lever, pointed its wings up and down directly at the sky and the ground, pulled the nose back, and bit the N010 Messerschmitt's tail position, taking advantage of the Spitfire's maneuverability in a plane fight to defeat the opponent's lead in one fell swoop. , both sides continued to turn quickly at the smallest angle on the same plane, both wanting to bite each other's tail first.
Zhou Zhihan cracked the Messerschmitt's dive. He wanted to learn more about the advantages and disadvantages of these two famous aircraft in the plane fight.
Regarding the advantages and disadvantages of these two famous planes in a plane fight, the British and German pilots had different opinions. Perhaps it was to protect the prestige of their own fighters. No one would say that their own fighters were inferior, but that they were stronger than the other.
Against the background of the blue sky, there are spherical contrails left by the two planes in pursuit. The two planes are like flying and circling at both ends of a straight line in the middle of the sphere. No one can catch up with the other in a short period of time.
It was only now that Zhou Zhihan noticed the twenty-four records on the tail wing of the Messerschmitt No. 010, especially the dazzling diamond, gold and sword cross on the record, which made his heart move.
Moldes?
Could this be Werner Molders who invented the four-finger formation?
The influence of the four-finger formation on the air force exceeds that of all maneuvers. Its appearance can directly enhance the strength of a country's air force, while those dazzling maneuvers can only enhance personal abilities and are far less influential than the four-finger formation.
Zhou Zhihan, who liked the military, especially fighter planes, before time travel, remembered that before the Battle of London, the German Red Baron held the record for shooting down the most number of aces with 83 aircraft. The first person to shoot down more than 100 aircraft was also a German ace pilot named Molders was the first pilot to receive the Cross of Diamonds, Gold and Swords from the Reich Head of State Hitler before the Battle of Dunkirk.
Molders's integrity is different from other German pilots. The reason why he flies a plane to fight is because he is a soldier and it is his bounden duty to obey the motherland.
As the chase continued, Zhou Zhihan glanced at the pilot of Messerschmitt No. 010, who happened to also look over. Although he was wearing goggles and a flight hat, Zhou Zhihan recognized the elegant face of Morders at a glance. And handsome face.
Before time travel, the handsome face of Werner Molders would almost appear in books, newspapers, and magazines about fighter jets, because the four-finger formation he invented had a profound impact on World War II.
The two gave each other thumbs up almost at the same time.
Cherish each other!
Zhou Zhihan secretly observed the battlefield within his sight and decided to end the battle quickly.
Limited by the number of aircraft and short range, the number of fighters dispatched by the British Royal Air Force lagged far behind the German fighters. There were constant Spitfires and Hurricanes. Under the attack of Messerschmitts that were several times higher than them, they fell or were injured and escaped. On the battlefield, various German bombers were like the scythes of death, frantically harvesting heads above the heads of the Allied forces.
Over the heads of the Allied forces at Dunkirk, several Reaper Stuka bombers dropped their bombs and left quickly, leaving behind a bloody disaster on the beach;
The He111 bombers of the 1st and 4th Wings of the German Army carried out a devastating blow to the port facilities of Dunkirk. All ports, docks, docks, and warehouses were reduced to ashes:
The Do17 bombers of the 2nd and 3rd Bomb Wings of the German Army destroyed all the roads in Dunkirk and frantically attacked the Allied tank units and anti-aircraft artillery units.
A214 Spitfire first recovered from the tail bite and flew straight.
The opportunity was rare, and Messerschmitt No. 010 followed immediately.
200 meters……
Accurately calculating the time and seizing the opportunity just right, the No. A214 Spitfire throttle was pushed to the end, the lever was pulled with all the strength, a 360-degree spin, and the No. N010 Messerschmitt volleyed down to follow up.
Major Moldes' eyes shrank, his eyes were as cold as ice, and he pressed the stick to the left to perform a roller maneuver that was both offensive and defensive, hoping to use it to counterattack.
The A214 Spitfire easily recovered from the dive attack and entered the left side of the N010 Messerschmitt from a 45-degree angle. Instead of rolling in pursuit, it raised the nose again and performed a low-rolling three-dimensional maneuver. Action, avoid overshooting yourself, reduce the turning radius without losing energy, and use an attitude with an elevation angle to be above the attack zone of the rear hemisphere of the Messerschmitt No. 010, occupying a good attack position in one fell swoop , and get better viewing space.
Moldes discovered that his roller maneuver not only failed to turn defense into offense, but instead put his rear half position in danger of being bitten to death by the opponent. A trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and he did not dare to change it, so he could only continue to move in the direction. Make a swooping roller maneuver, trying hard to get out of the rear hemisphere position that is about to be bitten.
The A214 Spitfire followed up with a roll, its nose always biting the rear hemisphere of the N010 Messerschmitt, and the distance between the two aircraft was once again narrowed.
There were beads of sweat on Major Moulders' forehead, and he could only continue to perform the roller maneuver downwards. He was experienced and knew that as long as he corrected at this time, he would be killed by the opponent immediately and shot down.
No. A214 Spitfire lightly pressed the stick, turned slightly to the side and struck down. It continued to pursue and formed high pressure, and maintained a wide tracking field of vision, forcing No. N010 Messerschmitt into a desperate situation.
The leading edge flaps of N010 Messerschmitt suddenly opened, and black smoke stopped emitting from both sides of the nose.
The A214 Spitfire's throttle valve was fully retracted as it turned sideways. Zhou Zhihan kicked out five seven-point rudders in succession. The A214 Spitfire's fuselage slid to the right and made a small half roll to the right. The wings pointed up and down directly at the sky and the earth. , the nose of the aircraft points to the right nose of the Messerschmitt No. 010.
Sure enough, the Messerschmitt N010, which was cornered, was forced to recover and turn right, and immediately hit the A214, which was spitting fire from its muzzle.
At this moment, Werner Molders' face showed shock and fear as if he had seen a ghost - the other party actually figured out that he would make a right turn.
A214 Spitfire opened fire.
