The Americans felt incredible that although the F-80 was not their best jet fighter, it was also a front-line equipment of the US Air Force. If the F-80 was a pilot who was a Democratic Party that could not beat the T-Communist, the Americans still felt that this Democratic Party pilot was too bad, and the current American pilot who was a serious American pilot who was flying the F-80 could not beat the MiG-15. This can only show one problem, and I'm afraid the MiG-15 is more advanced than I thought.

So the CIA began to find ways to collect information about MiG-15. Even if the physical objects of MiG-15 were not available for the time being, they also bought the pictures at a high price. After intense interpretation, they came to a preliminary conclusion that MiG-15 is an advanced fighter jet built with backward technology.

The so-called backward technology is naturally the centrifugal engine of the VK-1. This thing is a backward technology with no development prospects. Americans know that there is a similar engine in the UK, but Americans still use an axial flow engine. However, although the centrifugal engine is a little behind, the thrust can still be guaranteed. Due to the performance indicators of the centrifugal engine in the UK, Americans can roughly calculate the performance of the MiG-15. It is indeed above the f-80.

This made the Americans feel extremely insecurity. The MiG-15, which has already served, is better than the F-80. It is estimated that the F-86 will have to wait for the F-86 to clear the gap. But who can guarantee that the Soviet Union is not developing more advanced fighter jets?

So much so that Congress began to request a review of the F-86 project, because Congress believed that the F-86 was probably lagging behind just after entering the production line, which was equivalent to wasting taxpayers' money. The US Air Force was amused and crying about this. Of course, they hoped to obtain more advanced fighter jets, but this did not mean that they were willing to give up the F-86 project, because this project can be basically said to be successful and only takes one year to put it into use. If they abandon the launch of the new project at this time, according to the normal development law, they will only be able to use the F-80 in the next three to five years, which is something the Air Force would never want to see. So they kept lobbying Congress and tried their best to keep the men in Congress.

In order to prove that the F-86 is not weaker than the MiG-15, the Air Force dispatched two F-86 prototypes to go to the Zhoushan Islands through Japan and prepared to practice with the MiG-15 on the spot. In order to achieve the most satisfactory results, the Air Force sent the best pilots and the best service team, and even carefully planned an ambush operation. Only when the MiG-15 that was found alone would the F-86 attack.

This "honor" fell on Zhang Huangxin. That morning, as usual, he flew the MiG-15 on an air patrol. Because the MiG-15 has a limited range, this air patrol operation generally does not exceed 200 kilometers of the coast, which means that it has just covered the waters around the Zhoushan Islands. As usual, Zhang Huangxin easily shot down two P-51s and reduced his results to 50 in one fell swoop. To be honest, this period was his happiest time. He was able to achieve results almost every day, and it was too difficult to get injured or injured. The jet fighter made the propeller pilot breathless with an overwhelming advantage. It is said that according to monitoring, the propeller fighter pilots of the Democratic Party had refused to take off to fight.

In fact, in the past two days, Zhang Huangxin has also discovered that the fighter jets of the Ministries have been deployed very little, and even if they attack, there will be F-80 cooperation. Anyway, the P-51 is rarely deployed alone. This directly led to a significant reduction in the results of the MiG-15 in the past three days, because there are almost no targets in the air to attack.

Today, he actually encountered two p-51s with good luck. Zhang Huangxin's mouth was grinning at the corner of his ears. He did not realize that this was a trap. When he happily hunted the p-51, the two f-86s had already rushed towards him. Both f-86s were piloted by a US ace pilot with a bald forehead and quietly entered from Zhang Huangxin's tail, preparing to launch a sneak attack.

Zhang Huangxin didn't realize that he had been targeted. He was still imagining what kind of welcome he would be when he returned to the airport. After all, he was the first man to shoot down 50 enemy planes, which is a special honor. Even in the Soviet Union or even in Europe and the United States, there were not many pilots who could shoot down 50 enemy planes. They can be said to be the trump card among the aces.

It was almost time for the two f-86s to rush towards Zhang Huangxin, one after another, and were about to open fire, Zhang Huangxin suddenly moved. He pulled the rod and zoomed in. The MiG-15 head pointed at the sky and pulled a somersault, and he almost avoided the f-86's attack.

This sudden maneuver caught the F-86 pilot off guard. They really couldn't figure out how the prey could react at the last moment. Their attack should be very concealed and impeccable!

In fact, the attacks of American pilots were indeed very hidden. With the help of clouds and mist, they launched an attack from the most favorable position. If it was World War II, they had already succeeded. But this was not World War II. Although their opponents were young and not so experienced, the aircraft they drove were larger and did not lack the courage to fight to the end. Of course, more importantly, the performance of radar in this era has been greatly enhanced.

Of course, this does not mean that the MiG-15 is equipped with radar. It is basically impossible for fighters of this era to equip radars, and the only cone scanning system radar that can be used is not ideal. The so-called radar still refers to the ground-based radar network on the ground. While t has introduced the MiG-15, it also introduced the Soviet early warning radar. Although there is no funding to cover the whole country, there is still no problem in ensuring the coverage of one or two key war zones. Almost all Pla fighters are engaged in battle with enemy aircraft under the guidance of ground radar, which was something that the Democratic Party did not expect.

The Democratic Party always believed that the Communist bandits were a group of local bumpkins, and there was definitely no high-end radar. In fact, if it weren't for the godfather's "sponsorship" at a high price, he wouldn't have radars. Moreover, because the radar was too expensive, the army could not buy too many, that is, two or three radars were used to make it live.

So when the F-86 was about to use sneak attacks to solve the MiG-15, it was soon discovered by Pla's radar. After a tedious identification of the enemy and us, Pla's radar station was basically sure that this was a jet fighter of the Democratic Party. The only thing they couldn't understand was why the reflected signals of this batch of jet fighter jets were different from the previous F-80 radar?

Zhang Huangxin can solve this problem. He saw it very clearly. The attack on him was definitely not the f-80 I saw before. The f-80 I had intakes on both sides of the front. To be honest, the enemy plane in front was so similar to the MiG-15 he was driving. At first glance, they were almost two brothers, both single-engine fighters with air intakes with certain sweep wings on their heads.

In fact, if the radar station hadn't reminded him that there were enemy planes behind him, he would have mistakenly thought that the f-86 that attacked him was his own. He even pulled it up suddenly and observed the enemy a little incredible, because the two sides were so similar.

However, similarity does not mean the same, because the performance bias of MiG-15 and F-86 are still very different. The thrust of the two is almost the same level. However, because the MiG-15's fuselage is lighter, the thrust-weight ratio is better, especially the air combat thrust-weight ratio. Simply put, the MiG-15 has better climbing force and stronger vertical maneuverability. So we can see that in the air battle against the United States and aid Korea, MiG-15 always uses simple maneuvers to tease. The f-86 is actually a good aircraft, but its focus is horizontal maneuvering, which is probably worse than the hovering battle. Moreover, the electronic equipment of the f-86 has been more complete in history, especially the sights are much better than the simple MiG-15.

However, it is not in history. Whether it is an American pilot or Zhang Huangxin, he knows nothing about the enemy's performance, such air combat is even more accidental. It has to be said that Zhang Huangxin was lucky because he was the party who was attacked, so he actually chose to avoid it first. The MiG-15's best dodge is maneuvering. Zhang Huangxin subconsciously did this action.

The American pilots did not expect that the vertical maneuver of MiG-15 was so powerful that they subconsciously chased them and soon found that they had fallen into a pit. MiG-15 quickly turned over a somersault, and they were still in the rising stage of somersault. In this way, Zhang Huangxin changed from being attacked to an attacker. He pulled the trigger without hesitation, and a series of shells flew out, just hitting an F-86.

In the blink of an eye, the f-86 fell into the sea in circles. At that time, Zhang Huangxin subconsciously glanced at the theodolite and marked the coordinates. Although he did not realize what it was for, he did get unexpected surprises in the future.

This is not to mention the later story. When it comes to the battle itself, the other F-86 was also shocked. In the blink of an eye, it attacked and defended in a different way. Moreover, his long aircraft was shot down directly. The enemy bit his tail tightly and kept sending the most cordial greetings with artillery shells. In the face of this situation, ordinary pilots might panic, but this pilot is ace. The ace was trained in constant battles. To be honest, he had encountered a more dangerous situation than this. So the American pilot was not too panicked. He knew the performance of his car very well. It should be said that the maneuverability was very good, especially the horizontal maneuverability was quite gorgeous.

Thinking of this, he made a decision. Since the vertical maneuverability of the competition was completely destroyed, let's stop being so dying. Let's play what we are best at. He immediately stepped on the rudder push rod and started to circle. At first, Zhang Huangxin was really ready to follow and bite his tail and tangle, but he soon found that it was difficult for him to grasp the tail of the enemy plane steadily. On the contrary, the enemy plane was about to attack after going around his tail. At the critical moment, Zhang Huangxin immediately gave up and continued to tangle with his opponent, and pulled up again and made another one.

This time, the American pilot was stunned. This air combat method of not playing according to routines is too tm bullying people. Continuing to play horizontal hover means that the opponent can accumulate enough potential energy after gaining a height advantage and dive down and beat him, and the vertical maneuverability is not enough with the enemy plane.

After thinking about it, he felt that continuing to hang out with his opponent would probably not have any good results. Thirty-six strategies were the best. This guy decisively gave up the battle and turned to return.

Zhang Huangxin was also a little stunned. His plan was actually very simple. He was to take advantage of the height and then fight with the opponent. It would be better if the enemy was shot down. If it didn't work, continue to pull the rod. Anyway, the enemy's vertical mobility was poor. As long as he didn't dive over and ran to the front of the enemy, it would generally be fine.

But who would have thought that this guy would run away just by scattering, which made Zhang Huangxin very regretful. He wanted to catch up, but one fuel had already been alerted, and the other was not underestimated by the opponent's level of maneuverability. Playing with a dog fight with MiG-15 is really no match. In desperation, Zhang Huangxin had to give up this piece of fat and return in a bad mood.

After landing, he immediately reported to the regiment commander about the fight against the enemy's jet fighter that he had never seen before, and informed the specific location of the shot down enemy aircraft. This situation quickly attracted the attention of the Communist Air Force and the Soviet Air Force. After washing out the photos taken by Zhang Huangxin's landline's photo gun, the American version of MiG-15 immediately attracted the attention of the two commissions. Soon the two sides reached an agreement to jointly salvage the new American jet fighter and figure out its specific performance data.

On the other hand, the Americans were disappointed. They had originally expected a good start, but who would have thought they would open the door to kill. If the Senate knew that the F-86 was shot down by the MiG-15, no matter how much the Air Force did the work, the F-86 project would probably be cut off. The US Air Force decided to block the news and urgently transport the remaining F-86 back to the country. As for the one shot down, it claimed that it fell into the sea due to bad weather during the test flight.

Of course, because Chiang Kai-shek also learned of this fatal information, the US Air Force promised to sell him the second batch of f-80s at a relatively preferential price in order to banish the ban, and even promised that it could help the Democratic Party to solve the problems of Congress and let Congress agree to sell f-84. Anyway, it took a lot of effort to wipe the butt clean.

As for the T-Republic, the Soviet Union happily salvaged the F-86 that fell from the sea and quickly transported it to the Soviet Union. After rigorous testing, the Soviet Union basically understood the technical performance of the F-86 and was very interested in its j47-ge-27 turbojet engine. Compared with the centrifugal engine of the MiG-15, this axial flow engine is much more advanced.

According to the idea of ​​some Soviet departments, we simply reversely imitate the j47-ge-27 turbojet engine and install it on the MiG-17 or the MiG-19 that is being developed, which is just right.

However, this suggestion was rejected by Li Xiaofeng, and the reason was that it was unnecessary, because the Soviet Union had already had an axial flow jet engine project at this time, and the j47-ge-27 turbojet engine did not have a technical advantage compared to it. Since it was in the same level, why is it easy to prevent others from doing it? It would be better to give your own engine research institute more experience.

At this time, there were many projects of Soviet jet aircraft, including the MiG-17 that had just been put into production and the MiG-19 that was being tested in intense tests. The fighter bomber had the Sukhoi Su-7. The performance of the Su-7 was not stable at this time. The reliability of the Al-7 engine was not yet up to standard. Frequent failures must be overcome by the manufacturer's intense research. I believe that the problem should be solved within one to two years. Tupolev's Tu-16 in the bomber has begun to produce prototypes, and the next is the test flight. As for the Tu-14 project, it has lost to the Il-28. Speaking of this Il-28, it is also a legend, and it has served in the Red Air Force for nearly 30 years. Of course, the Il-28 is so durable, which is quite related to its use of the same engine as the MiG-15. Although the centrifugal engine is backward, it is still relatively durable.

The same Americans did not rest. Although they did not dismount the F-86 project, they also established a new project to develop an advanced supersonic jet fighter, which was the later F-100. Moreover, the F-95 project is also underway. The so-called F-95 is actually a deep-improved F-86 model, which was later called f-86d. This changed the f-86 nose air intake to the jaw air intake, and allowed the nose to be installed. This radar was also quite amazing at the time because it had 495 electronic tubes, 6,400 coils and electronic components. As for performance, we can only say haha.

Let’s talk about aircraft and air combat first, because according to the plan of the Communist Party of China, after seizing air supremacy, the next work is to cross the sea to fight and liberate the Zhoushan Islands. However, there is a problem here. The Pla Navy, which has just been established, is still relatively weak. Most of the equipment is modified by civilian ships or second-hand goods exchanged from Hong Kong Taobao. Most of the ships have slow speeds and weak firepower, and the working conditions of the machine are difficult to say. More importantly, it is especially lacking in transportation and landing ships.

Although the opponent's Navy is also garbage by the standards of a naval power, its garbage is still much stronger than T. Even if T.com has obtained air supremacy, it cannot guarantee that it can cross the sea and land on the Zhoushan Islands smoothly.

To this end, the Communist Party tried every means to collect and renovate various ships that could be found, and on the other hand, it also reached out to the Soviet elder brother for assistance. I hope the elder brother could support the construction of the Pla, and it would be best to provide a batch of destroyers, frigates, frigates and landing ships with preferential prices...
