At this time, Spitfire No. 214 was surrounded by Messerschmitts.
After the hedging just now, all the Messerschmitts scattered in all directions, looking very chaotic. All the various formations used before were scattered, and they became single-machine battles.
The fighter plane led by Major Dietrich Herabach was flying in the opposite direction to Spitfire 214. Its current position was behind Spitfire 214 and chasing Red Star 1 in front.
The two Mei squadrons that took off later to intercept became in front of No. 214 Spitfire, and they were preparing to turn around.
To speak slowly, in fact, the time from the exchange of fire between No. 214 Spitfire and the second batch of two squadrons that took off to intercept until now is very short, only a few dozen seconds.
This is the charm of air combat. It is swift and powerful, elegant and brutal. The process is ups and downs and exciting.
In the fierce battle just now, Zhou Zhihan's peripheral vision never left the Red Star 9 bomber. Fortunately, the five Meis only attacked Yumashev and Pisanko fiercely, but they still pressed hard against the Red Star 9. , forcing the gunners to consume ammunition needlessly. In the eyes of the German pilots, the Red Star 9 was already in their possession. Moreover, there were 6 Mei interceptors ahead, making it difficult for the bombers to fly without wings.
Major Dietrich Herabach ordered the members of the two squadrons taking off later to start accelerating and fly forward in a slight dive, taking advantage of the Messerschmitt's dive acceleration advantage to get rid of the No. 214 Spitfire.
The Messerschmitt in front knew that the Spitfire of the Plague God No. 214 was behind him. The German veterans did not need to be reminded by the commander, and they had already turned on the afterburner and rushed forward. No one wanted to be bitten by the Plague God behind them.
The 10 Mei-types formed a dense firepower to attack the aircraft, but they could all be scattered by the Spitfire No. 214, not to mention being caught by its rear tracking.
During the few seconds of pretentious pursuit, Zhou Zhihan took the opportunity to flatten the wings. Just when the Meiji turned on afterburner and fled at full speed, he pulled the stick with all his strength. The Spitfire No. 214 roared and raised its head, climbing almost vertically.
Zhou Zhihan looked back and made sure the wings were parallel to the ground. The Spitfire 214 was still climbing vertically and maintained this attitude for a few seconds, constantly increasing the altitude to ensure the fighter's energy.
Zhou Zhihan flat pole, the throttle valve was slightly retracted, and while continuing to climb upward, he suddenly pushed the half rudder quickly and continuously. While the aircraft was climbing upward to the right, the nose of the aircraft began to slide rapidly to the right.
During this upward climb, Zhou Zhihan suddenly pushed the rudder continuously, and the load on the wing suddenly changed, causing the nose of the aircraft to turn downward. The fighter jet was like a swift soaring into the sky, suddenly retracting its right wing, and quickly turning 180 degrees with a graceful posture. To the extreme.
At this moment, a huge negative G overload was generated. Zhou Zhihan felt that the blood was rapidly leaving the brain, and many pinpoint-like black spots appeared in his eyes, and there were more and more, and soon these black spots would turn into black faces.
Spitfire No. 214 entered a fast J-turn.
The true J-turn maneuver is to release the throttle valve when pushing the rudder, and then push the rudder when the upward speed of the fighter is almost 0. It uses the attraction of the center of the earth to let the nose of the aircraft slowly move from top to bottom like a "hammer maneuver", freely. Slip and turn.
In order to quickly recover and rush to the rescue of Zvezda No. 9, the speed of No. 214 Spitfire did not decrease during the J-shaped turn, and the movement was reversed too much, so a strong negative G overload occurred.
As Major Dietrich Herabach led the fleet to pursue forward, he reorganized the formation and ordered the other two squadrons to prepare to turn around to face the Spitfire 214 and continue to pursue the Red Star 1.
Major Herabach has rich experience. He knows that he cannot turn after crossing with his own fighter planes, because the fleet is relatively chaotic at this time. Turning at this time, the risk of collision between the two aircraft will increase sharply. He would rather be tracked by the rear Spitfire No. 214. , and did not let the team members turn immediately, so he asked the team members to turn on the acceleration and get rid of the Spitfire No. 214 first.
He knew that the bravery of the Spitfire No. 214 had created negative emotions in the hearts of his team members. If the Spitfire No. 214 were allowed to continue tracking from behind, more Meishi would be shot down.
Zhou Zhihan was also making sure that Mei Shi in front was accelerating and running away, and that Mei Shi who was running in the opposite direction was far away from him, so he did this maneuver that could turn quickly. Otherwise, this maneuver was almost a J-turn maneuver that was just a performance. , will become a target for the Germans.
Breathing fire takes up to 18 seconds to complete a turn, and will reduce speed and combat energy.
The Messerschmitt takes slightly longer to complete a turn than the Spitfire.
When Major Dietrich Herabach turned back to order the team members to turn, he was overjoyed when he saw the entire J-turn made by Spitfire 214. He thought that the Chinese had made an operational error in their turning maneuver and would crash soon. , so he quickly ordered the team members to turn quickly and orderly.
Zhou Zhihan's J-shaped maneuver can complete a 180-degree rapid turn in just a few seconds, and he does not slow down during this maneuver, which not only reduces the turning time, but also increases the energy of the fighter jet.
Of course, the prerequisite for Zhou Zhihan's J-turn maneuver is that you must have super skills and be able to withstand the huge negative G overload, otherwise the plane will crash.
In the blurred vision, I saw the horizon appearing directly in front of the nose, which showed that Spitfire No. 214 had completed a super fast 180-degree turn.
When the No. 214 Spitfire returned to level flight after turning, Zhou Zhihan took a deep breath and quickly eliminated the nausea caused by negative G overload.
Two or three seconds later, Zhou Zhihan pushed the throttle all the way down and started accelerating. The Spitfire No. 214 made another pull-up jump and headed straight for the Red Star No. 9.
Major Dietrich Herabach turned back, the corners of his mouth twitching continuously, and the joy in his heart turned into fear.
He rubbed his eyes to make sure Spitfire 214 had not fallen, and headed straight for Red Star 9.
how so?
Under such a huge overload, how come the Chinese eyes did not suffer from temporary blindness?
Even if you are not blind, your brain should not be able to bear it, right?
How could this be?
Why didn't Spitfire 214 stall and fall?
Is the Chinese man piloting Spitfire No. 214 a human, a ghost, or a god? Why do the maneuvers he performs exceed the standards currently recognized by the aviation industry?
As for the maneuver the Chinese just performed, no one else would be able to withstand such a large overload, and it would 100% cause a maneuvering accident, stalling and falling.
In a short period of time, ten of our own fighter planes crashed or were injured. Major Herabach knew that if Spitfire 214 was not shot down, the idea of capturing Zvezda 1 alive today would be a bubble, but he knew that it was not Spitfire 214. The opponent, so he shouted: "Rossman, I will join hands with you to kill this No. 214 Spitfire."
Major Dietrich Herabach originally wanted to join forces with Edmonton Rothman and Hermann Graf to fight Spitfire No. 214.
But at this time, Hermann Graf was fighting fiercely with Pisanko. Although he had the upper hand, several shots were barely avoided by the equally experienced Pisanko.
At this time, Zhou Zhihan and Major Dietrich Herabach did not know that not long ago when Spitfire No. 214 was flying against 30 Messerschmitts, there was a Messerschmire with the serial number Wk-Nr 14716. The special young pilot had a sunny smile on his face at the moment when he passed by Spitfire No. 214 dozens of meters away.
Just now, the wonderful moment of Spitfire 214 shooting down enemy planes in succession was clearly seen by Marshal Zhukov sitting in Zvezda 9. He immediately asked the pilot next to him, who was the pilot flying Spitfire 214?
