Baffin Island, the largest island in Canada and the fifth largest island in the world. Part of the Canadian Arctic Islands. It faces Greenland across Baffin Bay and Davis Strait to the east.
The terrain here is complex, and the mountains are all higher than 8,000 feet. The ridge runs through the east of the island and is covered with glaciers. The coast of Fox Bay in the Midwest is lowland with tortuous coastline and many fjords.
Most of the island is located in the Arctic Circle. The winter is severely cold and long, and the summer is cold. There are only a few Inuit people living on the island.
This island is across the strait from Greenland. It is said that the Germans have taken Greenland, and the next goal should be here. In fact, as long as you analyze it carefully, you will know that there is no need.
Because it's too cold here.
The German occupation of Greenland was to use Greenland as a springboard to land in the Americas across the sea. These alpine regions, no matter how vast the territory, is of little use. Moreover, the island is full of mountainous areas, and the Germans occupied it. Any value.
Therefore, it makes sense to fly south from Greenland, either directly to the continental United States or to the warmer Labrador Island.
At this time, in the southern part of Baffin Island, Frobishabe, a man came to an ordinary residence outside.
Frobisher is one of the main settlements on Baffin Island. There are about a thousand residents living here. Because it is too cold here, there are no tall buildings and almost all of them are bungalows.
The door was opened, and the man was greeted into the room. He went straight to the fireplace and hurried to the fire. He came all the way and was frozen.
A limping man came over and sat next to him. Only then did he react: "Colon!"
Colonel Eddie nodded for a moment: "What did you find?"
"We observed near the unfinished aviation base. Sure enough, after the Germans completed them, they began to station German fighters. In particular, there was also a jet group that moved to the H3 base." Man Said.
Jet Group! Hearing this, Colonel Eddie's eyes lit up. After waiting for a few days, he finally got good news!
At the same time, he was also pleasantly surprised by Donovan's judgment that the Germans really deployed the jet force to Greenland.
Since Greenland has just been occupied, a large number of American intelligence personnel can easily stay on the island. Because of the freezing weather there, it is impossible for the Germans to conduct a perfect personnel screening. In this way, their personnel can move normally. Now there is finally a gain!
"At the same time, we also used radio equipment to receive their radio navigation signals and hand them to the personnel behind. We should be able to simulate the information in them." The man continued.
The Germans have used advanced radio navigation equipment to conduct navigation by sending radio signals. This system is actually very easy to be copied, as long as the signal is obtained, it can be simulated.
Colonel Eddie nodded: "Well, our simulation site has also been constructed. Now, our lupine project has officially begun!"
Everything is ready, only the wind is owed. Now that the German fighters are in place, the next step is finally about to begin.
Stealing fighters is skillful, but stealing directly is not acceptable.
Autumn is about to pass, winter is about to come, the daylight gradually becomes shorter, and the night becomes longer.
The whirring cold wind is constantly blowing. In many weathers, even the take-off and landing of aircraft will be dangerous. The wind will directly blow the aircraft over. This is the terrible climate in the Arctic.
The base is still busy.
"Recently, the focus of our training is still on the use of rockets to train interceptor bombers." Nowotny said: "I will tell you a good news. Our suggestions for improvement of fighter aircraft have been reported. Soon, we It will be equipped with a 30mm cannon and our fuselage will be reinforced."
The last interception experiment showed that in order to deal with large targets such as the B-29 bomber, the rockets are effective, as long as the quasi-head is enough, but the 20mm cannon is not powerful.
In World War II, Mauser’s MG151 series 20mm cannon was hailed as the most suitable cannon. It has been used since the start of the war and has been encountering the B-29, but it was finally not enough.
Therefore, we continued to develop a new 30mm cannon. The original MK101 had too much weight and was not suitable. Up to now, the improved MK108 has finally come out with lighter weight, compact structure, and high lethality. Jet equipment, after all, this kind of aircraft is the easiest to install a cannon.
At the same time, the suggestions on the parts of the fuselage that were hardened with fewer shots were taken seriously.
Hearing that 30mm cannons should be equipped, many people became excited in an instant, especially those who had experienced the last battle. After coming down, analyze the data of firing and deal with ~www.novelhall.com~ At least 30 rounds of 20mm cannon Cannonballs work!
Now, it’s time for a new gun, which is good news.
However, Ted on the side raised a question: "Should we change one door or three?"
Among the flying troops, Ted was the most thoughtful person, although Novotny was most satisfied with Ted within a few days of coming here.
Now, he raised a very important question.
The trajectory of a 20mm cannon is different from that of a 30mm cannon. If only one of them is used, and the other two use 20mm, the sight cannot be adjusted. The trajectory of the 30mm cannon is more curved. And the 20mm straight, if it is only adjusted to the middle, there will be 30mm shells flying away from below, 20mm shells flying away from the target, and no one can hit the result.
If all 30mm cannons are used, it will cause a reduction in the amount of ammunition carried, and the durability will not be high.
This is also a thorny question. Nowotny was about to answer when he heard the harsh air defense sirens sounded outside.
No, there are circumstances!
When he heard the sound, Ted immediately picked up the flying cap from the side and rushed out. Today, he was on duty with his lead plane, Karl Snow.
Karl also rushed out, and the two rushed to the plane almost at the same time and jumped in. The cold from the seat made his **** chill.
Turn the switches to start the engine. When the roar of the engine came from the tail, Novotny's voice rushing to the tower came from the headset: "Attention, southwest, from Labrador Peninsula. A target flew at an altitude of 8,000 and a speed of 500. It may be a US reconnaissance plane."
There is only one target, and it must be a reconnaissance plane. It is now in wartime, and of course you must shoot it down without hesitation!
