Transmigrated as the Crown Prince

Germany, Berlin Palace.

Air Force Commander-in-Chief Marshal Kesselring stood in front of Yannick's desk in high spirits, reporting the results of the Calais air battle. "Your Highness, our air force has repelled the invading enemy and achieved a glorious victory!"

Yannick leaned lazily on the comfortable office chair, pointed at the document handed over by Kathleen, and smiled. "Marshal Kesselring, just give me a brief explanation." Previously, he had only received news that he had repelled the British fleet, and did not know the detailed losses.

"Yes." Kathleen opened the file and began to report. "At 1:32 p.m., the radar station in the Calais region detected a group of aircraft taking off in the United Kingdom. We immediately took off fighter jets to intercept. At 1:53 p.m., an air battle broke out over the English Channel. By 2:41 p.m., the British Air Force After retreating, our army was shot down 97 fighter jets, of which 41 pilots were salvaged and rescued. The British lost more than 200 fighter jets and bombers. We salvaged nearly 100 pilots."

Yannick nodded with satisfaction and asked casually. "Does the record count?"

Kathleen's originally upright body became even more upright, and she could even draw a straight line with a pen. "Your Highness, even if there is an error, I guarantee it will not exceed 10%."

At this time, the performance of German fighter jets was better than that of British fighter jets. German pilots had a better understanding of the performance of British fighter jets than the British pilots themselves. Coupled with the overwhelming numbers, they should indeed deliver amazing results.

"The British suffered heavy losses and either retreated in the face of difficulties or became more courageous with greater frustration. If they still don't give up, the only thing left is night bombing."

Kathleen assured confidently. "Please rest assured, Your Highness, I guarantee with my head that the German Air Force's night combat capability is the strongest in the world. If an enemy plane can break through our interception at night, then I am willing to be punished by military law!"

As if to confirm his words, an air raid siren in the Calais region tore through the silent night sky. "Alert! Alert! British bomber formation! Night fighter jets taking off!"

The Mosquito bomber, which had been waiting for a long time, turned its propellers and began to glide forward along the slender runway.

The Mosquito bomber was originally a multi-purpose bomber. It has many modifications: photo reconnaissance aircraft, bombers, fighter-bombers, night fighters, bombing guidance aircraft, torpedo bombers, submarine hunters, day patrol aircraft, minelayers, and trainers. aircraft, special transport aircraft, etc.

Soon, the first batch of 20 Mosquito night fighters flew into the night in formation and disappeared at the end of the darkness.

These night fighters are equipped with an "oblique music" weapon system consisting of four 20mm-caliber aviation cannons on the back of the aircraft (this weapon system is a cannon system that is fixed on the back of the aircraft and fires diagonally upward. With this kind of weapon system, the aircraft can obtain a safe attack position without flying to dangerous places. In the original time and space, when German night fighters equipped with oblique music appeared near Berlin, the losses of Allied bombers instantly increased by one-fifth, and even had to cancel many bombing plans.), a simple radar guidance device was installed on the nose of the aircraft, and the pilot was equipped with a "Vampire 0 version" infrared night vision device.

According to the guidance of the ground signal station, these aircraft can quickly fly near the enemy aircraft, then rely on small radar guidance devices to find the attack target, and finally use infrared night vision devices to accurately attack the target.

Originally a bomber capable of carrying tons of bombs, it can be loaded with more than 3,000 rounds of 20MM cannon ammunition, without having to consider ammunition consumption at all. If the range is long enough, a night fighter can slowly kill at least a group of the opponent's bombers.

It was precisely because of this epoch-making weapon that General Kesselring dared to issue a military order to Yannick.

Embarrassingly, the original concept of oblique music was proposed and first practiced by the Royal Air Force before the war, but the British concluded that the system had no actual combat value. After the results came into the hands of the Germans, they were installed on all types of night fighters, giving the British a crisp slap in the face with brilliant actual combat effects. Facts have proved that being the first to invent does not mean that it can be successfully used. The British first proposed the Blitzkrieg, but it was in the hands of the Germans that the Blitzkrieg theory was transformed into actual combat results. I wonder if Churchill looked at the report of the heavy losses of the bomber force and wanted to immediately Push out and shoot those British officers who came to the wrong conclusions.

A fierce air battle in the dark night, or more accurately a one-sided massacre, is about to begin.

The attacking side was the British taking off more than a hundred Wellington and Blenheim bombers; the defensive side was the German night fighters that were taking off non-stop.

"Turn on the infrared headlights!" The commander of the mosquito night fighter interception force looked at the target distance displayed on the simple radar and ordered calmly.

Each night fighter is equipped with a 60 cm diameter thick and short cylinder on the back, which looks like a searchlight, but does not emit any visible light. The invisible light it emits can illuminate targets 1,500 meters away.

"This is Nighthawk 2! Nighthawk 2 has visually detected the enemy aircraft! It has entered the attack position and can be shot down at any time!" In the cabin with no lights at all, the voice of pilot Heinz Schnaufer accompanied The engine roared.

His current position was more than 300 meters behind and below the belly of the opponent's aircraft. Through the "Vampire Version 0" infrared night vision device, he could clearly see the target.

Take the American B-17 "Flying Fortress" bomber as an example. Up to 13 7mm heavy machine guns are installed around the fuselage. Even the old British Lancaster bomber has the self-defense firepower of 8 7mm machine guns. The best way to deal with these fire hedgehogs is to shoot their "soft" bellies from bottom to top, especially the Lancaster bombers used by the Royal Air Force for night bombing. Their bellies are empty and they don't have any self-defense firepower. If you are a night fighter pilot, you will also choose to start here.

The commander quietly listened to the report in the earphones until all the squadron personnel found the target of the attack and then gave the order. "Nighthawk Squadron 1! Nighthawk Squadron 1! Fire! Fire!"

"receive!"

"clear!"

"Fire!"

Amid the din, shouts filled the earphones. This was the Nightingale Force's first actual combat attack, so the pilot's shouts were somewhat nervous.

"Tu tu tu! tu tu tu!"

The dull sound of machine guns echoed in the night sky, mixed with the sound of engines, and the entire battlefield immediately boiled.
