Chapter 769 Air Combat
Major Carlos ignored these details, so he was supposed to fly to Wanxian Airport at night, but he temporarily changed his mind and chose to act during the day...

Part of the reason for this is that Major Carlos and his team came all the way from Yingjiang to experience jet lag. The day in Huaxia should be night for them. They couldn't fall asleep during the day, so they simply chose to finish their work.

Major Carlos looked at the time and asked the adjutant, "How long will it take to reach the target?"

The adjutant replied: "Major, maybe 18 minutes!"

"Turn on the radio and contact the airport!" Major Carlos said, "Let them know we're coming!"

"Yes!" The adjutant followed the order and turned on the radio.

I don’t want to, I heard a hurried voice from the radio immediately after turning on the machine: “Falcon, Falcon, this is the hunter! The enemy’s Zero War has already flown to your direction! Repeat, the enemy’s Zero War has already flown to you direction……"

The adjutant hurriedly reported to Major Carlos: "Major, the enemy may have already intercepted our way!"

Major Carlos was taken aback, and immediately ordered through the radio: "Get ready to fight..."

However, it was too late.

Before the words fell, several "Zero Fighters" swooped down from above the clouds, and then only heard the "da da" sound of machine guns, and several Hawker 81s were shot to the side with black smoke.

"Freedom to fight!" Major Carlos raised the nose of the aircraft while ordering.

This is where the devils are clever. They occupy a high position and force the enemy to climb instead of dive...

The commander of the "Zero War" squadron is Captain Toshihide Aoki.

The pilots who can fly the "Zero War" in the empire are all elites, and Toshihide Aoki is no exception. Although he is only a squadron leader, his rank is already a lieutenant commander, and the number of enemy planes he has shot down has reached more than [-] sorties.

A considerable part of the record was obtained during the attack on Pearl Harbor.

This is also one of the reasons why Neiji Okamura transferred him to China to fight, because he has rich experience in fighting the Eagle Sauce fighter.

The ambush laid by Liying Aoki was set according to the direction of the enemy.

Others intercept, will choose to catch up and immediately go into battle.

But Toshihide Aoki did not do this.

He thought about a problem before the battle, that is, catching up is likely to allow the enemy to discover his "zero combat" fleet in advance and prepare for it.

This is not what Toshihide Aoki wants.

Toshihide Aoki hopes to catch the opponent by surprise.

After all, there were as many as 32 fighter planes that Yingjiang came to reinforce, but there were only 12 in the "Zero War".

In the absence of a numerical advantage, Aoki Toshihide believes that he should expand his environment, position and first-mover advantage as much as possible.

And if the enemy discovers its fleet too early, these advantages will disappear.

Therefore, Aoki Toshihide's flight direction is not from north to south to catch up head-on.

He knew that the attention of the enemy plane must be directly ahead, and it would be easy for the enemy to catch up.

The flight route of the Aoki Squadron was staggered from the target... 12 "Zero Fighters" flew east for a certain distance, and then turned back from the east, and the flight route turned a corner.

The reason why we chose the east side was because it was morning and the sun was on the east side. The 12 "Zero Fighters" approached the enemy plane under the cover of the sun and clouds, and it was almost impossible for the enemy to detect it.

On the contrary, the enemy plane was clearly visible in the eyes of the imperial pilots under the sunlight.

What's even more exaggerated is that Toshihide Aoki ordered to maintain a high position...

This is the result of Aoki Toshihide's tactical analysis of Eagle Sauce.

During the recent period, the performance of "Zero War" on the Pacific battlefield was not as good as it was when the war started. After researching the reason, Toshihide Aoki found that it was the eagle-chan pilots who always chose to dive and escape when they were in a disadvantageous situation.

If you need to dive to escape, you should have a certain height.

If the "Zero War" remains high, there are only two options when the Eagle Sauce plane is attacked:

One is to dive and flee.

The second is to climb to the challenge.

But neither is clearly a good fit.

For the former, if you dive to escape... this is the time when "Zero Zhan" is diving to pursue from the rear. Although "Zero Zhan" has poor high-speed performance, Eagle Sauce does not have much speed at the beginning of the dive. The fuselage of the "Zero Fighter" is kept in line with the flight path, and it almost hits their muzzle.

The latter, climbing to the challenge.

This is the advantage of "Zero War"... "Zero War" is light in weight, and its climbing performance is far better than that of the heavy Hawker 81.

Facts also proved that Toshihide Aoki's tactics were correct.

The moment the "Zero War" dived, the Eagle Sauce fleet suffered heavy losses:

Upon contact, five Hawker 81s were shot down on the spot, and then some Hawker 81s chose to dive, and some chose to climb...

In fact, the best choice for Hawke 81 at this time should be to maintain the flight path, just accelerate, fly for a while, and then start to dive and escape.

The reason is that the "Type Zero" dives down from a high place, and its only chance to shoot is the moment the muzzle is aimed at the target, and then because of the huge inertia, it will inevitably fall below the Hawke 81.

At this time, the Hawk 81 is not suitable for climbing or diving.

The dive is an opportunity for Zero War to continue chasing.

To climb is to expose one's weakness to the "zero battle".

On the contrary, flying straight and level can temporarily escape the pursuit of "Zero War".

Therefore, the tactics on the battlefield are often not stereotyped, but should be adapted to the actual situation.

Because of the wrong tactics, in just 2 minutes, more than ten Hawker 81s were shot down and injured one after another.

At that moment, Major Carlos was stunned. He never thought that facing the "Zero War" situation would be so tragic, and almost half of the casualties were already there before he could react.

And not long ago, he thought he was evenly matched with the enemy.

At this moment, he found a "Zero Fighter" behind him.

This is quite normal, because Major Carlos chose "climb".

The result of climbing means that you will soon be bitten by the "Zero".

Major Carlos immediately realized his mistake, he gritted his teeth, and made a fake move in the air... This is Major Carlos' unique skill, it looked like he was turning left, but suddenly he turned right at a large angle , and then immediately turned to dive.

Sure enough, the "Type Zero" behind him was thrown off by Major Carlos.

And fortunately, when Major Carlos dived, he found a "Zero" following a friendly plane below.

Major Carlos didn't think much, and swooped down towards the target as soon as he pressed the nose.

He wanted to save his subordinates, but he didn't realize his wish in the end.

Before his machine gun fired bullets, the machine gun of "Zero War" had already hit the friendly plane...
