The whole world is piling up and developing new technologies of their own with the technologies in their hands. Ten years have already allowed the natives of this world to understand a part of the technology and gain so ability to move forward.
It’s just that they need to go through countless trial and error and a series of accumulations to finally find the path that seems more normal.
The Mount Fuji-class Bomber is such a giant bomber cobbled together by the Dorne side using existing technology: it looks a lot like Japan’s Mount Fuji-class bomber from WWII, with three engines on each wing.
The reason for adopting such a design was mainly to lift the heavy or rather cumberso Shenguang Missiles off the ground. Plus, considering the range and loitering ti, a more complex design was used.
According to past sayings, the more intricate structures like engines, the higher the failure rate, and the lower the reliability of the equipnt.
However, with the advancent of technology, such concerns have gradually lessened. Also, without so many engines, the plane simply wouldn’t be able to fly.
To et the fuel consumption of six engines, fuel tanks were also installed inside the fuselage, and aside from the part that recessed to carry missiles, the original bomb bay space within the fuselage has beco a space for fuel.
When this aircraft was tested, it faced a bit of a rough going, because the groove under the belly damaged so of the aerodynamic shape, so the flight performance changes a bit after dropping the bombs.
What is shocking is that this kind of aircraft even equipped a radar, capable of taking off and landing at night, and even operating in complex weather conditions.
Similar technology ca from civilian airliners exported by the Tang Empire. Dorne dismantled several jet airliners and imitated so of the technology inside.
Unfortunately, the engines were too complex, and Dorne’s engineers couldn’t replicate them in a short period, so they could only use more mature propeller engines as substitutes.
Of course, it’s barely capable of flying, but to what extent the flight performance was good could not be said. However, since ti was of the essence, these issues were bearable.
Confident with having several secret weapons, Dorne also didn’t invest much energy in the coastlines, which is one of the reasons why Dorne the First chose to ’kill the donkey after the millstone’ and deal with Sun Guang.
While Dorne the First was summoning the ministers in his palace, the air raid alarm sounded again over Winterless City.
Two Phantom Fighters appeared in the people’s sight one after another, and this ti the Tang Army did not perform electromagnetic interference. The two planes brazenly broke into Dorne’s air defense zone with air-to-air missiles hung beneath their wings, reflecting cold light in the sunlight.
That’s right, they were here to provoke. Every now and then, the Great Tang Empire’s Naval Air Force would provide Dorne with this kind of "fair" confrontation opportunity, only that Dorne never dared to face it head-on.
But this ti, Dorne felt they were ready. A month ago, they had repaired a more concealed field airport. They believed that the Tang Army didn’t know about it, but the Tang Army had already mastered this intelligence through reconnaissance satellites.
Stationed at this concealed airport was one of Dorne’s more elite aviation units, equipped with 15 F-86 Peidao Fighters and 20 -262 Fighter-Bombers used as attack aircraft.
Currently, these aircraft are not using their original designations, only their original nas: one is simply called Peidao, and the other is called the 262-type Fighter Jet.
With the air raid alarm sounding over Winterless City, Dorne’s pilots finally received the order to sortie, quickly running towards their fighter jets.
These planes were all hidden inside the hangars, camouflaged with turf, almost indistinguishable from the sky.
Unfortunately, when these facilities were still semi-finished, the Tang Country’s reconnaissance satellite had already taken enough pictures and sent them back to Tang Country.
Now, Tang Country’s intelligence departnt knows where the oil reservoirs are, knows where the hangars are, knows where the control tower is, and exactly how long those runways, usually covered by camouflage nets, are.
The ground staff had already checked the aircraft for the pilots. In fact, since there weren’t many electronic devices, inspecting these planes wasn’t particularly complicated.
The cannons were already well-tuned, and the planes were in good condition: the Tang Army intentionally did not bomb these airports just to lure Dorne into deploying their aircraft so they could train those pilots with little combat experience.
Soon, four Peidao Fighters roared off the runway, starting to climb. The roar of the jet engines echoed across the airport, followed by two radar-equipped 262-type attack aircraft, also setting off with rockets.
These large-caliber rockets were one of the only two weapons for the 262-type bombers for naval warfare, the other being unguided iron bombs.
With rockets, the 262 Fighter-Bombers can dive from 2 kiloters or even 3 kiloters away, launching these large-caliber rockets at the target for a higher success rate of attack.
As six aircraft took off, the Dorne Air Force Commander nervously stayed by the phone, waiting for news from the radar room.
Sun Guang brought expertise from Qin Country, and Dorne also mastered the operating principle of the Tang Army’s anti-radiation missiles due to several losses. So, the distance between radar antennas and radar stations, as well as between the radar station and the command post, were very far apart.
Moreover, a large amount of communication was restricted to the range of wired telephone communications, thus avoiding the enhancent of radio signals, likely dodging the anti-radiation missiles launched by the Tang Army.
An aerial combat was about to ignite. Dorne believed they had seized the opportunity this ti, and the trap set for the arrogant Tang Army finally took effect.
After six aircraft took off, Dorne’s commanders imdiately ordered another unit stationed at a different airport to take off four early-model Peidao. These Peidao did not possess all-weather combat capabilities but were still few of the "good planes" in the hands of the Dorne Air Force.
Ten planes against two enemy aircraft, the numbers gave Dorne an advantage. They thought that with careful planning, they should at least achieve so results.
Even at this mont, they began to wonder if the kind of electromagnetic interference ans of the Tang Army had failed, and from now on, they would no longer be troubled by that damn strong electromagnetic interference environnt.
