Chapter 873: Air strike

The MB152 fighter is a fighter, not an attack aircraft. For Finland, despite the participation of the Volunteer Air Force, the air power is still stretched.

Therefore, the Finnish Air Force needs to be an all-rounder. In addition to being used for air combat, it can also attack the ground. In this regard, the MB152 fighter has a congenital advantage.

This fighter has two weapons, two 20mm Spanish-Swiss HS404 cannons on the wings, each with 60 rounds and two 7.5mm MAC1934 aircraft machine guns, each with 500 rounds. hair.

This type of cannon is an automatic burst artillery produced by the Sispano-Suza company. Its derivative models were widely used as aircraft guns and land-based weapons by Britain, France and the United States during World War II.

Compared with other light weapons, the HS.404 that fires 20mm projectiles is more lethal. This makes it an ideal anti-aircraft weapon for installation on light vehicles, and was used to replace the 7.62mm and 7.7mm machine guns that were heavily installed on fighter planes in the 1930s.

The French HS.404 was produced by the French branch of Cispano and became a famous series of machine guns. After all, the 20mm machine gun is much more lethal than ordinary machine guns.

However, when firing against the air, its main type of ammunition is high-explosive ammunition, which uses explosions and fragments to kill. This type of ammunition is not effective against tanks on the ground.

However, in addition to high-explosive bombs, it also has a new type of bomb, the 168-gram armor-piercing tracer!

Now, the 60 rounds of the MB152 fighter jet's drums are filled with this kind of armor-piercing bullets. After all, their goal this time is to strike the ground!

When the fighter jet turned into a dive, it issued a characteristic Doppler whistle. In Bruce's field of vision, the T-34 tank became clearer and clearer.

At this time, the Soviet tank troops had already discovered them, but they did not have any effective weapons to protect them.

Hans Rudel in history destroyed more than 500 Soviet tanks. But he himself was shot down a dozen times.

Later, he summed up his experience: the Soviet T-34 tanks are the easiest to attack because those tanks are not equipped with anti-aircraft machine guns for air defense, while the M-4 "Sherman" series tanks aided by the US to the Soviet Union are equipped with one. The 12.7mm anti-aircraft machine gun, he himself was shot down several times during the dive attack.

At this time, the diving fighter is absolutely safe, except for accidentally hitting the ground, there is no threat!

The altitude is getting lower and lower. After all, this kind of fighter is not a professional attack aircraft. It has no angle of attack display and no alarm equipment. Everything depends entirely on your own experience.

At this time, the T-34 tank on the ground was still advancing at full speed, and Bruce set the advance amount appropriately, and pressed the shooting button at a distance of about 500 meters from the ground.

"Tom Tom Tom!" The 20 mm cannons on both sides roared frantically, and the entire fighter jet vibrated.

Just pressing it, he quickly released it, and even so, there were four or five shells and they flew out!

The tracer armor-piercing projectile draws a shining trajectory in the air and hits the Soviet tank on the ground.

For any tank, the top is always the weakest. The top of the T-34 tank, that is, the level of the homogeneous armor of 18 to 22 mm, and this kind of armor, the 14.5 mm anti-tank gun held by ordinary soldiers, Can penetrate it, not to mention the current 20mm cannon!

Almost several shells roared into the turret like this, and then a huge explosion sounded from the turret.

"boom!"

The internal ammunition exploded, the air flow leaked from the seat of the turret, and the whole small turret flew directly into the sky.

"Hurray!" Seeing your own fighter jets showing off, the Finnish soldiers on the position here immediately cheered.

Seeing that their position is about to be conquered by the Soviets, their own air force, it's really time to fly!

This is just the beginning!

One after another MB152 fighter jets swooped down from the air and used the 20mm cannons on both sides to attack the tanks. Their attacks were quite effective. The attack of the Soviet tank forces suddenly became slow.

"What to see, hurry up!" Patty Buddha shouted loudly.

The help of our own planes made everyone excited, but anti-tank fighters, at this time, must not relax! Patty Buddha yelled at his gunners.

The gunner will become deaf in the future, because the sound of the artillery is too strong. Now, after more than 20 cannons have been fired, everyone's ears are buzzing, and nothing can be heard.

Therefore, the people who fired the artillery used banners instead of shouting. That's why.

"Hurry up!" Pattyfer couldn't hear his own shout, so he lifted his leg, followed the loader's ass, and kicked it with leather boots.

The loader stopped looking into the distance and quickly reloaded.

"Dang!"

Another armor-piercing projectile was stuffed into the barrel. Then, with a bang, the projectile flew to another KV-1 tank in the distance.

At a long distance, the 17-pounder gun destroyed several T-34 tanks, and after approaching, the 17-pounder gun was mainly used to deal with the KV-1 tank. After all, this big guy was its target, and the rest of the anti-tank The cannon is used to greet the T-34, which is flowing like a tide.

Just now, the Soviets’ tanks were like rainbows, but now, under air strikes, their offensives have finally slackened. After the T-34s on the forward positions were destroyed, the Soviets finally did not. It was so violent just now!

This time ~www.novelhall.com~ the Soviets are about to fail. They have lost hundreds of tanks and still haven't conquered their own positions!

Amid the rumbling of the guns, Pattyfer finally saw hope, but then, he saw a larger group of planes flying in the distant sky.

Soviet fighters!

"Tom Tom Tom!" After killing a T-34 tank again, Bruce pulled up his plane. Before he had time to find the next target, he heard the call on the radio: "Soviet aircraft, a large number of Soviet aircraft, Let's fly!"

The speed of the Soviet Air Force's deployment is not slow. They have already flown above the front. Their arrival has saved the tank troops on the ground and relieved the threat of Finnish fighters in the sky.

"Give up on the ground and prepare to fight!" Bruce shouted loudly. At this time, the 60 rounds of 20mm artillery shells on both sides were almost consumed, but he still had two machine guns!

Machine guns that use ammunition drums for ammunition have always faced the problem of insufficient ammunition carrying. Only by using ammunition chains for ammunition can this problem be solved.
