German Air Force Headquarters, although it is thousands of kilometers away from the front line, relies on the advanced communication system, Air Force Minister Albert? Field Marshal Kesselring, can still grasp the situation on the front line in time.
Marshal Albert? Field Marshal Kesselring's armrest Edward? Milch, although he is now in charge of the strategic aviation cluster. However, he also attached great importance to this operation and arrived at the headquarters early.
"Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, have the frontline troops set off as planned?" Field Marshal Kesselring asked.
"Yes, Your Excellency. The front-line aviation wings are taking off! Soon, our fleet will cross the actual control line between the two sides and enter the Russia airspace." Air Force Chief of Staff Hu Ge? Spee replied.
Field Marshal Kesselring nodded. This time German Air Force's large-scale operation will be carried out in the direction of Moscow and Yuzefgrad at the same time, trying to destroy Russian Air Force in one fell swoop and seize air superiority on the entire battlefield. Of course, you don't need to think about it to know that this will inevitably be met with a desperate counterattack by Russian Air Force. If things go wrong, German Air Force will also suffer a lot of losses. However, as long as we can win the air battle for air supremacy, then the next battle will be relatively easy. Russian Air Force, once again suppressed, will never be able to make any waves again. German Air Force In the subsequent battles, the losses will be much smaller. Therefore, German Air Force is ready this time. No matter how heavy the losses are, we must seize air supremacy.
"I'm afraid we won't be able to launch a surprise attack this time. According to the intelligence we obtained, Russians received a lot of air defense alerts Radar from Americans, all Being deployed in an important area by Russians will give Russians a lot of warning time," Marshal Edward? Milch said with some regret.
Although the air defense Radar provided by United States to Buru are all old models retired by United States, their air detection range is only more than two hundred kilometers. However, this is enough to leave a considerable amount of warning time for Russian Air Force. After receiving the help of early warning Radar, German Air Force was able to take off a large number of fighter jets in time to fight against German Air Force. This also makes German Air Force pay a greater price in air combat.
If Buru did not search for Radar in the air, German Air Force could launch a surprise attack like the last time. Before Russian Air Force could react, he blew up Russian Air Force's fighter planes on the airport. In this case, German Air Force can seize air superiority at the minimum cost.
"There is no way around it. Our enemies are also making continuous progress. However, our overall strength is far stronger than Russian Air Force. Under such circumstances, even if we are upright and German Air Force We can win in a fight, but the price will be relatively high. As long as we can gain air supremacy, no matter how big the loss is, it is acceptable!" said Albert Field Marshal Kesselring.
Indeed, after suffering a big loss last time, Russian Air Force is ready this time. The air search Radar obtained from United States was deployed in a hidden place to monitor the airspace at all times. At the same time, Russia scientists are also conducting reverse imitation based on the air search Radar provided by Americans, and even conducting research and development on this basis, so as to develop a more advanced air search Radar for Russia.
Not long after German Air Force's fleet took off, before it crossed the actual control line between the two sides, it was discovered by Russia's air search Radar.
"Damn it, the Germany people's attack has started again!" Seeing the dense dots of light on the Radar screen, Russian Air Force's Radar Commander looked very ugly.
"Quickly call the airport and ask them to take off fighter planes to meet the enemy. Also, report to your superiors immediately that the Germany people's attack has begun!"
"Woo! Woo!"
The shrill air defense sirens sounded at all the major airports in Russian Air Force, and the pilots ran out of their dormitories and rushed to their planes.
Ground crews were already helping to get the planes started, while more planes were pulled out of the hangar and allowed to take off.
"Quick, quick! Take off immediately. Germany people have dispatched a large fleet. We must stop them!"
A Yak-1 fighter jet launched with the help of the ground crew and took to the sky with the help of the pilot.
More planes followed, taking to the sky. Although German Air Force is very powerful, advanced aircraft such as the Yak-1 fighter jet gave them a bit of courage to fight against German Air Force. Even though they know that German Air Force fighter planes is more powerful, at least they are not as helpless as before.
However, the number of Yak-1 fighter jets currently equipped by Russian Air Force is still too small, and the entire German Air Force is only equipped with less than 500 aircraft. The monthly output, after three shifts, has reached more than 300 aircraft. But this kind of output is obviously not enough for frontline consumption.
This makes Russian Air Force still have to use the old I-16 fighter jets and the P-40 fighter jets supported by Americans to deal with German Air Force.
After German Air Force has been equipped with a more advanced FW-190 fighter jet, it will undoubtedly be more difficult for Russian Air Force to compete with German Air Force.
"Comrade Marshal, Germany people have dispatched a large number of aircraft. I'm afraid the battle will begin again." Marshal Voroshilov's secretary reported to him.
Marshal Voroshilov's face suddenly became very ugly. Although he knew that this day would come sooner or later. However, he still didn't expect this day to come so soon.
"Order all frontline armies to prepare for battle! This time, we must resist the Germany people's attack!" Marshal Voroshilov ordered with a serious look.
At the same time, the commanders of other front armies of the Russian army also learned that German Air Force was dispatched in large numbers. Everyone also gave orders to prepare for battle.
After Russian Air Force's fighter jet took off, it was also discovered by German Air Force's air search Radar. German Air Force's air search Radar has a detection range of four hundred kilometers, far exceeding Russian Air Force's air search Radar. Even many Russian Air Force airports are within the detection range of German Air Force's air search Radar. Russian Air Force's fighter plane will be discovered as soon as it takes off.
German Air Force headquarters immediately issued orders for each aviation wing to prepare for battle. Guide those FW-190 fighter jets to pounce on the Russian Air Force fleet first, protecting the Dive Bomber behind and Attacker on the ground.
