On the night of November 30, 1940, the southern airspace of the Alliance
A formation of four aircraft was speeding toward the northwest at a speed of 300 kilometers per hour in the night sky, and below the formation was an endless wasteland. This was the Central Asia region of the Alliance. Not to mention this era, it was eighty Years later, this place is actually much the same.
In this era without radars and night fighters, the Alliance is similar to many other countries. The airspace at night is completely open. Of course, even during the day, the area that the Alliance Air Force can control is really limited. There is no way, the Alliance's airspace is completely open. The air force is out in the Northeast and Europe.
The so-called open airspace mainly provides navigation and transit refueling services.
For navigation, there are no satellites or terrain-matching radars. We can only rely on the guidance of the navigator. But in this kind of wilderness area without clear landmarks, even the most experienced navigators are confused. At this time, radio guidance from the ground guidance station is needed. , but it is not necessary for the MiG-2 transport aircraft. Multiple sets of sophisticated radio equipment can clearly receive and lock the signal of Berlin Radio, unless there is targeted electronic interference, but the alliance has not yet done so. aspects of equipment and tactics.
Stopover for refueling. Aircraft in this era have a limited range. Many transport aircraft cannot even fly 500 kilometers under heavy load. If there is no stopover airport for refueling, the plane will crash. And you really shouldn’t think that you can fly as far as the range. You should keep emergency fuel on the plane. Special weather conditions will increase fuel consumption, so many times the actual range is chosen to be controlled at 60%-80%. Within the maximum range.
"General Li, do you really want to fly directly to Berlin?" The speaker was Colonel Rudolf. As the embassy martial arts center, he was responsible for accompanying Li Yunlong on his visit to Hans.
Before getting on the plane, he thought that the Yamashiro government had taken care of the alliance government. After all, the alliance's foreign policy has always been a mystery. It is really possible for the Yamashiro government to accomplish what Hans cannot do, but he can think of it. , the guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes in front of him actually told him that the formation would fly directly to Berlin.
Direct flight to Berlin, direct flight from the mountain city to Berlin, the straight-line distance is more than 7,500 kilometers. These days, no transport aircraft can fly that far, let alone a heavy-duty transport aircraft. It seems that the transport aircraft they took is in Next to them is a Valentine infantry tank of more than ten tons. A tank plus more than a hundred attendants weighs more than twenty tons, right? It carries a load of twenty tons and flies more than 7,500 kilometers to Berlin. ,How can this be!
"Colonel, don't worry. The maximum range of this plane is nine thousand kilometers. It's fine in London, let alone Berlin." Li Yunlong curled his lips and said calmly, while he was sorting out the brand new The military uniform looked terrible, but no one knew that Lao Li had no confidence in his heart, because on the first day of the test flight, the engine stopped mid-air. Two of the six engines stopped mid-air. , one of them successfully ignited later, but the other engine failed to re-ignite until it landed.
"General Li, is this really no problem?" Colonel Rudolf lightly tapped the wooden bulkhead with his hand. It's not an all-metal aircraft with a steel frame and aluminum alloy skin, but what is this? It's obviously just plywood, is it wood? Even the keel is made of glued wood. This is a large transport aircraft carrying twenty tons of cargo!
"Don't worry, it's very strong!" Although the wooden skin of the aircraft has not been tested, he has tried it on an inland river motor boat that is also made of cork + fiberglass fiber + nylon fiber. When suppressing bandits, the bandits could not penetrate it with heavy machine guns. , replaced by aluminum alloy of the same thickness, it would have been torn long ago. As for these keels, they look like they are made of wood, but the inner core is also made of special steel. They are directly formed using a 100,000-ton molding machine and are extremely strong.
"General, I need to contact the country. The Imperial Air Force needs to send planes to escort you, and it also needs to mobilize the air power of friendly countries to support you. Do you think?" Colonel Rudolf asked tentatively. This is definitely the truth, but it is also mixed. For this purpose, he eagerly wanted to enter the cockpit of the plane and take a look, especially if he suspected that the target person was still on the plane. Even if he could not enter the cabin, he could still learn about the radio station carried by the delegation.
"It's not necessary. You can use the walkie-talkie to contact you directly after entering Hans's airspace." Li Yunlong didn't care. Wang Yue had specifically explained this. Regarding the Hans's desperate confidentiality mechanism, Rudolf told Rudolf the news. If it is released, the Alliance's air force may emerge over there. The thorough purge of the Hans Labor Party will not begin until early next year. At this time, the Alliance's intelligence power in Hans is still quite terrifying?
As for whether Comrade Steel will send fighter jets to intercept them? There is no need to doubt this at all. That brain will burn out if you don’t order the pilot to directly hit yourself.
Just when Rudolf was about to say something, the plane shook violently, and Rudolf was so frightened that he immediately grabbed the fastening strap on the bulkhead. It was so scary and unreliable, I’ll give it to you without any warning. Shake it, that’s all, you guys are lying when you say it’s safe.
"Everyone, don't worry, it's just turbulence." At this time, Wang Yue's voice came from the loudspeaker. He had not been flying this kind of aircraft for a long time. He just took the opportunity to add some fuel to the aircraft, but unexpectedly the engine failed. The vibration caused the body to resonate to a certain extent.
I really don’t blame Mikoyang for this. He never considered this situation when he designed the aircraft. Wang Yue added one ton of fuel at once without hesitation, causing a change in the fuel tank pressure, which caused the engine to run out. When the problem was solved, it finally turned off.
"Colonel, don't worry, this is the safest transport aircraft in the world." Li Yunlong said something stupid and closed his eyes to rest. He also had to take a moment. This is so scary, isn't it? There is obviously something wrong with the engine. Wow, the turbulent flow of bullshit, I really think there is something wrong with our old Li’s ears.
Colonel Rudolf felt like he was dying. Seeing Li Yunlong dozing off in a heavy cloak, all he could see was envy. This was an altitude of six thousand meters, and the temperature was close to zero. He was wearing Still wearing an autumn dress, your teeth are chattering from the cold, okay?
It's strange. They are also wearing single clothes, but why aren't the others cold?
