"General, can our F4U fighter jets handle the German fighter jets?" Major General Cowell asked.

  Although Rear Admiral Cowell can be regarded as a high-ranking official of the US Navy, as the chief of staff of the capital ship formation, he does not have much contact with carrier-based aircraft. Although he knows that the F4U fighter is the most advanced fighter of the US Navy. However, whether this kind of fighter can compete with the advanced fighters of the German Navy, he has no idea. After all, the Germans are far ahead in terms of aircraft. Since the beginning of this world war, the German Navy has been hanging aircraft from other countries around the world.

"I don't know either! I have to admit that the paper data of the F4U fighter is still very good. However, whether it can fight against the German aircraft needs to be tested in combat." Admiral Hasben Kimmel Said.

   "May God bless us!" Major General Cowell said.

  Although the shore-based aircraft of the German Navy are a little closer to the US battleship formation. However, the speed of the US Navy's carrier-based aircraft is as high as 600 kilometers. The German fleet has to take care of dive bombers and torpedo attack aircraft, and its maximum speed is less than 400 kilometers. Therefore, the US Navy's carrier-based aircraft finally intercepted the German fleet before they arrived.

  The **** formation adopted by the German Navy's fighter jets is that fighter jets are at high altitude, and bombers and torpedo planes are below. In this way, once the enemy is spotted, the fighter can immediately dive and attack. However, the F4U fighter jets of the US Navy are also at an altitude of tens of thousands of meters. So much so that the fighter jets of both sides discovered each other almost at the same time.

   "Found American planes, fighter jets attack, cover bombers and torpedoes!" The commander of the German army immediately issued an order.

   "Attack, give priority to killing the dive bombers and torpedo attack aircraft of the Germans!" The commander of the US Navy's carrier-based aircraft also issued an order. When intercepting the enemy's fleet, dive bombers and torpedo attack aircraft, which pose a fatal threat to warships, often become the primary targets of attack. After all, the heavy aerial bombs carried by these bombers and the heavy aerial torpedoes carried by torpedo planes can pose a deadly threat to one's own warships. Only by shooting them down can the safety of our own fleet be ensured.

   Fierce air battles started immediately. The dive bombers and torpedo attack aircraft of the German Navy scattered in all directions to avoid the attack of the F4U fighter jets of the US Navy. The FW-190 fighter jets of the German Navy bravely rushed towards the U.S. fleet.

  Although, in terms of quantity, the number of **** fleets of the German Navy is a little smaller. However, they are not afraid.

"Da da da!"

   "Boom boom boom!"

  A fierce air battle broke out immediately, and the fighters of both sides used aviation machine guns and cannons to attack the fighters they were dealing with.

   Fighter planes are chasing, rolling, climbing or diving in the sky, trying their best to shoot down the enemy's plane or get rid of the enemy's lock.

   I have to admit that both F4U fighters and FW-190 fighters are very advanced fighters. Especially the FW-190 fighter. Except for the TA-152 fighter, which is the pinnacle of propeller fighters, it is estimated that no fighter can really surpass this fighter. Even the F4U fighter jets of the US Navy are also not good.

   Coupled with the fact that these F4U fighter jets of the U.S. Navy have targeted the dive bombers and torpedo attack airframes, this gave the German Navy's FW-190 fighter jets more opportunities.

   "Go to hell, German!"

  A U.S. F4U fighter seized an opportunity to lock a German dive bomber.

  The dive bomber also found the danger, swaying left and right, trying to get rid of the US fighter. However, a dive bomber carrying two heavy aviation armor-piercing shells weighing up to 500 kilograms is inherently clumsy, and it is almost impossible to get rid of a flexible fighter.

"Da da da!"

  After setting the target into the front sight, the U.S. military pilot pressed the fire button.

"Da da da!"

  Six 12.7mm aviation machine guns began to fire, and tracer bullets drew white lines in the air. The dense bullets left bullet holes on the body of the dive bomber.

   A series of bullets hit the wing of the dive bomber. The wing was directly broken by the bullet, which caused the dive bomber to lose its balance and plummet towards the sea.

   "Haha, the first result!" The American pilot cheered.

   But before he could laugh, his plane was attacked. A FW-190 fighter jet of the German army swooped down from above and launched an attack.

"Da da da!"

  A bullet from an aviation machine gun penetrated the cockpit glass of the aircraft and hit the pilot. Blood sprayed from the pilot's body, staining the entire cockpit red. After the plane lost control, it fell towards the sea surface at high speed, hit the sea surface, and splashed high water columns.

   "Boom boom boom!"

  An F4U fighter was hit by a FW-190 fighter with cannon shells. Even if the body structure of the FW-190 fighter jet is very strong, it cannot withstand machine gun shells.

  During the explosion, the F4U fighter was almost torn to pieces. The pilot was killed instantly, let alone escaped by parachuting.

  The air battle was very fierce. The F4U fighter jets of the U.S. Navy almost chased the dive bombers and torpedo attack aircraft of the German Navy. One after another, the bombers and torpedo planes were shot down. The bombers and torpedo planes carrying bombs and torpedoes are even more clumsy, and they cannot withstand the American F4U fighter jets at all. But at the same time, these F4U fighter jets were chased by the FW-190 fighter jets of the German Navy. Under the attack of the FW-190 fighter jets, one after another was shot down.

  Although the F4U fighter jets of the US Navy have tried their best, they still cannot get rid of the pursuit of those FW-190 fighter jets. On the one hand, there is still a certain gap between the fighters of the two sides. Although this gap is not large, it puts the U.S. Navy's F4U fighter jets at a disadvantage in combat. Many times they cannot escape the pursuit of the German FW-190 fighter jets and are shot down. On the other hand, there is a gap in the quality of the pilots of the two sides. The quality of the pilots of the German Navy is obviously higher than that of the pilots of the US Navy. The combination of these two factors makes the U.S. Navy's F4U fighter jets gradually fall into a disadvantage even though they are superior in number.

  As more and more F4U fighter jets were shot down, the U.S. Navy's disadvantages in air combat became more and more obvious.

   "Damn, I'm bitten, I can't get rid of it!" A US military pilot exclaimed.

   "Roll, roll now!"

  The pilot did so, but the German FW-190 fighter jet followed suit and began to roll, still holding on. Until the last fire is fired, the F4U fighter is sunk.
