    If the opponent is chasing four SE5s, Dorin might be able to do a somersault and take the two wingmen alone to catch the opponent off guard. Fighter versus fighter, when the performance of the aircraft is not much different, it is better than flight skills and combat.  Skills, and of course the courage and courage of the pilot. No matter how good the performance of the Chinese rookie's SE5 is, the climb speed and somersault radius are still slightly inferior to the latest Fokker Dviii that I drive. Of course, the engine power is stronger than the other's, and the level flight speed is better.  The other party is faster.

    Eight SE5s lined up in a neat air formation and chased the three Little White Pigeons in front of them at an altitude of 3,500 meters. The Chinese fighter pilots of the Allied Air Force were not only excited but also nervous. Of course, as single-seat fighter pilots, these  They are all the best pilot students from Nanyuan Aviation School. They have been practicing the basic training of aerial combat and formation flying operations for more than half a year. Although they may not be considered perfect, at least they are already somewhat comfortable flying the SE5 in their hands.

    Unlike the pilots of dh4, the reason why many pilots of SE5 of the Allied Air Force stayed in the SE5 Fighter Group instead of choosing to accept being selected to the Chinese FR18 Excellent Fighter-Bomber Group was that except for the fact that SE5 had the most frequent missions in the Allied Air Force  In addition to duty and cruising opportunities, the more reason is to enjoy the fun and passion of flying a fighter alone.

    It¡¯s a joke. I¡¯ve always heard that fighter pilots have more opportunities to fight in air combat and shoot down enemy planes and become the coalition¡¯s ace in the air. Who has ever heard of bomber pilots becoming the ace in shooting down enemy planes?  Whether it is Nanyuan Aviation School or the Allied Air Force, there are a large number of British and French flight instructors, but most of them are fighter pilots, and there are very few reconnaissance and bomber pilots. Of course, originally a large formation  Bombing was not the main use of aircraft in the European War.

    In this world, before the aviation fleet of the Allied Powers on the Eastern Front appeared, due to the limitations of bomber performance and quantity, air combat between fighter jets was still the mainstream of combat between fighters from both sides. Ground attacks and bombing were just side jobs of the aviation fleet. This was a  In my heart, I still believe in the era of giant ships and heavy artillery. Although the importance of combat aircraft and air superiority is increasing day by day, before the British giant v1500 came out, the bomb load capacity of bombers and the threat they posed to ground targets were only slightly better than useless.  .

    What's more, without control of the air and without enough fighter escorts, a large and clumsy bomber formation can only become a piece of meat on the chopping board of the opponent's fighter jets.

    The eight SE5 biplane fighters of the 1st Fighter-Bomber Wing of the Allied Air Force almost caught up with the three little white pigeons flying in front after going 2 kilometers deep into the Ukrainian border. At this time, Ruzer, who was ambushing 4,000 meters above, led  The four Fokkerdviiis could no longer hold back and roared towards the four SE5s on the right side of the opponent's formation from high altitude.

    At the same time, the three Fokkerdviiis led by Lieutenant Duolin in front also began to turn right and climb, preparing to somersault down and join the four fighters led by their squadron leader to clean up the eight SE5s chasing behind them.

    The two SE5 teams of the Allied Air Force obviously found that the situation was not good. At an altitude of 4,000 meters, the opponent actually jumped down from the clouds with 4 FokkerDviiis to attack their retreat. This is a typical trap. 8:7 Although the number of fighter jets is 8:7.  It was the Allied Air Force that had the upper hand, but the four German planes ambushing at an altitude of 4,000 meters had the altitude advantage, and the three Fokkerdviiis in front started to turn and climb even 500 meters away, and they were clearly out of reach even if they were to fight.  .

    In the dark night sky, seven white German feral pigeons showed their ferocious faces. One after another, they were trying to catch the eight coalition SE5s in the middle. The two leading aircraft of the coalition obviously hesitated for a moment. They were excited and excited when chasing their prey.  The tension was swept away, and in just a moment, the leader of the SE5 team on the left shook its wings, and with the four aircraft of his team, he began to turn at maximum speed following the three white FokkerDviii in front.  In other words, keep chasing the other person¡¯s tail.

    The four aircraft of the second se5 team, led by their leader, began to somersault upwards. Although they would sacrifice speed, altitude was more important than speed at this time. The intention of the second team was obviously to seize altitude.  And fighting with the four German planes chasing him at high altitude actually distracted the attention of the four German fighter planes behind him.

    In addition to the British and French senior flight instructors from Nanyuan Aviation School, the Allied Air Force also has Wang Geng, a graduate student in the Department of National Defense and Military Strategy who was familiar with the basic tactics of the air forces of various countries in World War I and World War II in his previous life. As the founder, it seems that he was outflanked by others.  How to escape from the rear and respond to the challenge is also a must-fly subject during the daily training of the coalition air force. Of course, training, exercises and actual combat are absolutely not the same.

    No matter how good the soldiers are on the training ground, it is not easy to withstand the roar of artillery and machine gun fire when they first go to the battlefield. After the crash pilot students who graduated from Nanyuan Aviation School joined the aviation force, although  Front-line pilots have successively owned 500The flight time lasted more than an hour, but tonight was the first time for me to have a real air battle with a formation of German ace pilots.

    If it weren't for the fact that Luzer's squadron had less than a month to upgrade to the new Fokkerdviii, and was still in the process of becoming familiar with the performance of the new aircraft, the pilots of the Allied Air Force flew directly to the Nanyuan Aviation School shortly after their solo flights.  After flying on the SE5 biplane fighter, by now the pilots of the SE5 Fighter Group of the 1st Fighter-Bomber Wing of the Allied Air Force have basically flown the SE5 for more than half a year, and they have a slight advantage in their familiarity with the temperament of their own aircraft.

    Soon after, 8 SE5s and 7 Fokkerdviiis quickly became involved in a melee in the night sky. Although the German 1st Fighter Wing was the founder of the circus tactics of large formations in the air, with Wang Geng and British and French aircraft  The Chinese pilots of the Allied Air Force carefully trained by their instructors only lack practical experience rather than tactical knowledge. What's more, the pilots of the 1st and 2nd squadrons of the 26th Fighter Squadron led by Luzer tonight are obviously holding back their energy to replace the previous ones.  Downed Hans and his plane seek revenge.

    The German ace pilots were obviously dumbfounded by the panic and recklessness of the coalition rookie pilots who fired at them from 500 meters away. However, one thing that surprised the squadron leader, Lieutenant Luzer, was that he led the second team to charge.  The attempt to break up the SE5 formation of the coalition did not succeed. The climbing and hovering performance of the SE5 biplane fighter was almost inferior to that of the FokkerDviii, while the power of the engine was much stronger.
