Chapter 210 How many more? We want them all!
"Commander Situ, is this the fighter jet you once served in?"
Admiral Connor had seen this fighter jet, but only in photos.
It can be said that it almost witnessed the growth of the Renaissance Army Air Force.
"Yes, it was our most powerful fighter plane ever, and it was also the swan song of propeller fighter planes.
While we can't sell you a jet, it certainly can.
Our Mustang fighter is equipped with an engine with a maximum power of 1720 horsepower."
"What? 1720 horsepower?"
After hearing this number, Admiral Connor couldn't help but exclaimed.
Their engines only have about 700 horsepower, while the Restoration Army's engines have 1700 horsepower, a difference of 1000 horsepower.
“Yes, it is the ample power that gives it such powerful performance.
The maximum speed exceeded 700 kilometers per hour, and we reached a top speed of 711 kilometers per hour.
It also has a combat radius of 2100 kilometers and is capable of providing long-range escort for bombers."
After hearing these numbers, not only Admiral Connor, but also the other generals were stunned.
They knew that the Mustang fighter jets equipped by the Renaissance Army might be very powerful, but they did not expect that they would be so powerful to such an incredible degree.
The maximum speed is 711 kilometers per hour and the combat radius is 2100 kilometers.
This means that the combat range of this fighter exceeds 4000 kilometers, which is longer than the range of any of their bombers or transport aircraft.
No wonder the Restoration Army Air Force was able to crush the air forces of Fuso and Tsarist Russia with an invincible attitude.
If they had this fighter jet, there would be no rivals in the entire Western Continent.
Thinking of this, Admiral Connor became particularly enthusiastic.
There is another crucial point, just as Situ Fei said, it can provide escort for bombers.
The 2000-kilometer range is enough to cover the entire Gaul and John's territory.
The H-17E heavy bomber and this Mustang fighter are a perfect match.
At this moment, Admiral Connor had already decided to purchase this fighter, but he was not in a hurry because the show was not over yet.
"let's start!"
Following the order from Air Force Commander Situ Fei, Hurricane and Mustang fighter jets took off from the airport one after another.
It’s called a performance, but in fact it’s a fierce aerial confrontation.
The performance of a fighter jet can only be brought into play in fierce confrontation, which is basically no different from actual combat.
Of course, neither fighter's machine guns were equipped with bullets.
This is also to prevent the pilot from pulling the trigger in a fit of rage, which would turn the performance into an accident.
When the Hurricane fighter took off, the pilot did not rush to climb to a higher altitude.
Because the Hurricane fighter's biggest advantage lies in low-altitude dogfighting.
After all, the Mustang is a high-altitude aircraft, and its low-altitude dogfighting ability is very ordinary, and is even inferior to the slower Hurricane.
So the Hurricane fighters have been circling at low altitude, trying to lure the Mustang down.
The pilot flying the Mustang fighter jet was the ace pilot of the Naval Aviation Force. He was on vacation but was directly pulled in to perform in the flight show.
Gao Zhihang sneered after seeing Hurricane's actions.
He naturally understood the other party's thoughts.
He is not a fool. How could he give up his speed advantage and fight with the opponent at low altitude?
After raising the fighter to a certain height, Gao Zhihang decisively pressed down the joystick, and the Mustang fighter entered a high-speed dive phase, heading straight for the Hurricane fighter.
The Hurricane fighter pilot's expression changed slightly, and his expression gradually became solemn.
Faced with the diving Mustang fighter, he did not go straight towards it, as that would be tantamount to seeking death.
His choice was to dive together, accumulate energy, and then look for opportunities to avoid the Mustang's diving tactics.
After a shallow dive for a distance, the speed had increased to more than 600 kilometers per hour.
Moreover, the Mustang piloted by Gao Zhihang was always above the Hurricane fighter jets, which brought great psychological pressure to the Hurricane pilots.
"Damn it, BZ tactics, Gao Zhihang you are so shameless!"
After seeing the posture of the Mustang fighter, the Hurricane pilot cursed angrily, his tone sounding both angry and helpless.
He knew that once Gao Zhihang used the BZ tactics, he would be 'certainly dead'.
It's no different from adults bullying children.
The full name of BZ tactics is Boom and Zoom, which is also a very rogue tactic.
Fighter planes use their performance advantage to establish an altitude advantage, and after accumulating advantages in altitude and energy, they launch a dive attack. If the attack fails, they will directly climb out and disengage. If this is repeated repeatedly, fighter planes with inferior performance will almost certainly die.
Even fighters of equal strength can utilize this tactic.
When the dive had accumulated enough energy, Gao Zhihang chuckled.
At this moment, the Mustang fighter has accumulated absolute energy advantage.
Next is the time to torture the kids.
Facing the Hurricane fighter that was also diving and accumulating energy,
Gao Zhihang made a sound and then pressed the joystick to enter a dive attack state.
Although the Hurricane fighter pilot's flying skills are not worse than Gao Zhihang's, the performance of the fighter is far behind.
In terms of propeller fighter level, it is almost two generations behind.
So no matter how he maneuvered, he could not escape the high altitude that was always above an angle of about 45 degrees.
Moreover, the energy he had accumulated with great difficulty through the dive was still being consumed rapidly, and his speed began to slow down.
At this time, the Mustang driven by Gao Zhihang was very close to him, less than 700 meters away.
At this distance, it is already within the design range of the Mustang fighter's aircraft machine gun.
If the Mustang could open fire at this time, the machine gun bullets would directly cover his path forward.
The Hurricanes will crash headfirst into the barrage of Mustang fire.
After this state lasted for more than ten seconds, the Hurricane fighter stopped maneuvering and chose to level off, shaking its wings twice.
Gao Zhihang stopped pursuing because this short performance was over.
This short performance not only showcased some of the Mustang's performance, but also demonstrated the correct use of the Mustang fighter.
This also made the Hans Air Force delegation below fascinated.
Everyone looked at the Mustang fighter plane eagerly.
It was also the first time for them to see an aerial duel between single-wing fighter planes, which was completely different from the tactics they had previously encountered.
Moreover, the performance of this single-wing fighter can be seen with the naked eye, which is far beyond the reach of today's mainstream biplane fighters.
"It's like a wild horse that's broken free from its reins, flying recklessly in the sky. I really like this name."
General Connor, Chief of the Air Force General Staff, Hans, exclaimed in admiration, unable to conceal his love for the Mustang fighter.
Situ Fei nodded in agreement and said, "I like it too. If your army will purchase it, I can give it to you at a very cheap price.
Owning such a top-notch propeller fighter only costs 10 marks."
This price immediately made Connor make up his mind.
Such a top-level fighter jet costs only 100,000 marks each, which is definitely a great value for money.
If based on their domestic manufacturing costs, a 1700-horsepower piston engine alone would cost to marks.
"We are willing to accept this price. How many of these fighters do you have?"
Situ Fei was delighted and said calmly, "There are still more than 2700."
"We want them all!"
