Draw the sword and cure the fear of insufficient firepower

"Lin Tian, ​​I must report this matter about the Air Force to the chief. We can't be the only ones happy here, we have to make the chief happy too!"

"Not long ago, we were harassed by the Central Army's planes and suffered terribly. Now, we are fighting against the Japanese together, but now there are even more powerful Japanese planes!"

"These little devils keep flying reconnaissance planes above us all day long, and the chief of staff and his men have to take me to the air-raid shelter all the time. It's so pathetic!"

"We don't know much about airplanes, so we can't help you much. Anyway, I still say that if you have any questions, just ask. If I can't help, I will report to Yan'an!"

Mr. Lao patted Lin Tian's shoulder with his heavy hand and said with deep emotion.

We are absolutely capable of dealing with the Japanese by charging and fighting on the ground and fighting face to face.

However, once we encountered the Japanese planes, we had no choice but to hide.

Of course, we have also shot down Japanese planes, but the probability is extremely low after all.

In most cases, the Japanese dared to drop bombs at low altitudes even if they sent reconnaissance planes, just to take advantage of the fact that we had no anti-aircraft firepower.

"Boss Lao, let me write down the data of these two aircraft for you to use as a reference. You can also report to the commander afterwards."

As Lin Tian spoke, he took the paper and pen from Mr. Lao's desk. Mr. Lao and the others looked at each other and immediately gave the stool to Lin Tian.

Lin Tian didn't hesitate to sit on it and started writing. Mr. Lao and his friends hurried over to take a look, because this was their own plane.

"The MiG-15 fighter is a subsonic jet fighter, powered by a BK-1 turbojet engine with a thrust of 2700 kg. It is equipped with three machine guns, one H-37 37 mm cannon and two HC-23KM 23 mm cannons, which can carry 200 rounds of ammunition. Its maximum level flight speed is 1076 km/h (sea level), its service ceiling is meters, and its climb rate is 3000 meters/minute. Its maximum range is 1782 km (meters altitude), and its endurance is 3 hours."

"The B-29 Superfortress is a four-engine heavy propeller strategic bomber designed and produced by Boeing of the United States. It is the largest aircraft in the air forces of various countries and one of the most advanced weapons integrating various new technologies. It is known as the "strongest bomber in history."

"B-29 Superfortress bomber, length 30.18 meters, wingspan 43.05 meters, height 8.46 meters, full load weight kg, empty weight kg, crew 10 people.

The practical combat radius is 2574~2896 kilometers, the practical ceiling is meters, and the maximum bomb load is 9072 kilograms.

Equipped with 12.7mm M2 machine gun and 20mm M2 cannon. "

Lin Tian only looked at the data when he checked the plane for the first time. After so many days, he only remembered a rough idea.

Fortunately, these data are all in the system and can be checked at any time. You just need to open the system panel and copy them.

“Oh my goodness! Mr. Lao, Lin Tian’s plane is so powerful! This… This is much better than the Japanese’s plane!”

"Look at these data. They fly so fast and run so far. What can the Japanese use to fight us?"

"This MiG-15 fighter jet has an astonishing speed of 1076 kilometers per hour. Let me think about it. We are less than 900 kilometers away from Yan'an. It takes us more than ten days to walk there. This plane can fly there in less than an hour. It's really fast!"

"And this B-29 bomber has a combat radius of more than to nearly kilometers. It can fly to the Japanese mainland. It's great! If we can bomb the Japanese mainland once, it will surely boost the confidence of the whole country in the fight against Japan!"

The chief of staff looked at the tip of Lin Tian's pen and was extremely excited. Although he didn't have a plane, he could see many more enemy planes.

Compared with Lin Tian’s plane, it flies slower, lower, and has a smaller combat radius.

This happiness comes too quickly, and the gap is too big.

It's like you've been fighting with tree branches as weapons for decades, and suddenly one day someone hands you an AK, and you suddenly don't know how to fight the war anymore.

"Hey, the Chief of Staff's words really reminded me. When the time is right, I will organize the air force to bomb the Japanese homeland!"

"Our escort fighters can completely crush the Japanese fighters in all aspects. The generation gap in the air force cannot be made up by quantity."

"Even if the Japanese use 100 of their most advanced Zero fighters, I'm afraid they can't exchange for one of our MiG-15 fighters!"

"Our bomber fleet can reach the Japanese mainland unimpeded and let them have a taste of being bombed!"

After hearing what the chief of staff said, Lin Tian suddenly got an inspiration. This matter is very feasible.

When the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor in the United States, the Americans retaliated by sending aircraft carriers carrying heavy bombers from the Army to bomb the Japanese homeland. That was the first time that the Japanese homeland was hit, and it dealt a severe blow to the Japanese's arrogance.

However, the Americans did not have control over the sea and air power at the time, so the bombers could only take off from far away from the Japanese homeland. As a result, after the bombing, the bombers would run out of fuel and would have to make an emergency landing in the eastern coastal areas of China.

At that time, in order to carry as many bombs as possible, reduce the weight of the aircraft and increase the range, the ground crew removed everything that could be removed from the bomber.

But Lin Tian’s situation is different from that of the Americans. Considering the combat radius and endurance of the MiG-15, as long as it can take off from the coastal areas, it can fully support and return safely.

It just so happened that Lin Tian planned to open up an outlet to the sea, so the Air Force would have a forward base.

By then, Lin Tian will definitely have more planes in his hands. When he thought about the Japanese homeland being turned into a sea of ​​fire by napalm bombs, or even using mushroom eggs to plow the land, Lin Tian couldn't stop getting excited.

But this matter will have to wait for some time. Lin Tian needs to gather enough bombers to inflict heavy damage on the Japanese in one go.

The once highly acclaimed "LeMay BBQ" assembled more than 29 B-11 bombers, but we only have now, which is too few.

Even if it flew over the head of the Japanese locust, it wouldn't cause much waves.

It would be better to save up a big wave and blow him up nicely.

The main goal now is to build high walls, store up food, and strive to accumulate one's own strength.

All this will happen soon, and the time to collect debts from the devils is not far away.

"Oh, by the way, I was so busy talking about weapons and equipment that I forgot to mention another beneficial effect."

"This can greatly reduce the casualties of my troops. I wonder if the commanders are interested in hearing about it?"

Lin Tian looked up at the three leaders and kept them in suspense.

"Speak up, speak up! Speak up!"
