BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1205: BF-110 Fighter (Eleventh)
After Qin Tian\'s order was issued, the strategic forces of the Luftwaffe immediately began to operate. A series of long-range fighter jets and heavy bombers moved to airports in Belarus and Ukraine. Next, strikes against important cities in Bu Russia will mainly take off from these airports. As the German army further advanced to the depths of Bu Russia, the take-off airport of the strategic air force could also further advance to the hinterland of Bu Russia. That way, they\'ll be able to drop bombs further afield. After all, in order to guard against German bombing, Bu Russia has long planned to move many important factories to the vicinity of the Ural Mountains and even the West Siberia Plain.
It\'s just that what the Russian government doesn\'t know is that the locations of these factories have been leaked a long time ago, and they have been targeted by the Luftwaffe. In the next strategic strike, the Luftwaffe will gradually destroy all these important factories in Russia to further attack the war potential of Russia.
The German Air Force Command set up a strategic strike office, with the new Air Force Marshal Edward Milch as the commander, responsible for formulating a strategic strike plan against Russia.
After the imperial meeting, Marshal Albert Kesselring made a special trip to the Strategic Strike Office to discuss with Marshal Edward Milch a strategic strike plan against Russia.
"Marshal Milch, His Majesty has issued an order to launch a strategic strike against Bu Russia in a week. This will be an excellent opportunity for the Imperial Air Force to prove our capabilities. I hope that we will be able to In the strategic attack, everyone will be impressed!" said Marshal Albert Kesselring.
The German Air Force was established the latest, and the record it has achieved is currently no other record except for the air strikes against the Russian Air Force at the beginning of the war. This makes the status of the Luftwaffe controversial. In particular, the construction of a huge strategic strike force requires a large amount of military expenditure. Some people in the army and navy have long said something about this. Even with the support of Emperor Qin Tian, those discussions were all suppressed. But the Luftwaffe is also holding back their energy. They need to use the results to prove to everyone that they are not wasting money. In the war, they can also show great strength, which can give Germany a greater advantage in the war, and even win the war in advance.
Marshal Edward Milch nodded: "Your Excellency, a week of preparation time is enough. The only thing to worry about is probably being intercepted by the Russians. Although the Russian Air Force was hit hard by us before, it took only a few months. , regained a lot of strength. Although the performance of the Russian Air Force’s I-16 combat and I-15 fighters is still not enough, they have obtained a batch of P-40 fighters from the Americans. Although the performance of these fighters is still It’s bad, but it will also pose a considerable threat to our bombers. Moreover, the number of our **** fighter jets is still not enough.”
The German Air Force\'s long-range fighter is specially used to **** heavy long-range bombers, numbered BF-110 fighter. However, unlike the twin-engine BF-110 fighter jets of the head of state in another time and space, the BF-110 fighter jets of the Luftwaffe in this time and space are single-engine fighters, and they use powerful fighter jets with a power of 1,600 horsepower. . In addition, a large amount of aviation aluminum is used on the fighter plane to reduce the weight of the fighter plane and ensure that it can carry a large amount of aviation fuel to further increase the range. At the same time, the speed of the fighter jet has reached 720 kilometers per hour, which is faster than the BF-109 fighter jet. Climb rate and dive performance are also outstanding. Although in terms of combat effectiveness, it cannot be compared with the FW-190 fighter. But the combat performance is still very powerful. At least, from the current point of view, no country\'s fighter jets can confront it, except for Germany\'s own fighter jets. Because of the use of a large number of new materials, the cost of the BF-110 fighter is very high, even more expensive than the FW-190 fighter. But it is precisely because of this that the maximum range of the BF-110 fighter jet can reach 2,800 kilometers (carrying auxiliary fuel tanks). Of course, although it is not as good as the Zero fighter\'s perverted 3,300 kilometers, it is already a little better than the P-51 fighter. For the German Air Force, this range is barely enough. As long as it takes off from the front-line airport, it is completely possible to **** the H-11 bombers and H-21 bombers taking off from the rear airport.
With the advancement of technology, the range of Germany\'s long-range fighters will definitely be further improved. At that time, it will almost be able to provide full **** for heavy bombers.
Now the Luftwaffe only has 600 BF-110 fighter jets in total. This is only made up by working overtime and occupying part of the productivity of the FW-190 fighter jets.
"I will greet the aircraft factory and let them further increase the production of BF-110 fighters. If we wait a few more months, we will not lack long-range fighters. In addition, after spring comes, the Army will Launch a large-scale offensive. Tactical fighter jets will also be dispatched with all their strength to compete for air supremacy. At that time, the Russian air force will definitely suffer further heavy losses. When we carry out strategic bombing, the threat we encounter will be much smaller. "Marshal Albert Kesselring said.
Marshal Edward Milch nodded. Although the current **** force is somewhat insufficient, the heavy bomber not only has a solid body structure, but is also equipped with powerful self-defense firepower. Coupled with the protection of long-range fighters, it is barely enough.
