Chapter 666: China's Air Force Deterrence
As the spectacular flight performance of the A Wing gradually faded away, the skies above the parade ground welcomed a new protagonist. A deep and powerful roar came from the distance, like thunder in the distance, heralding the arrival of a new round of shock.
The host, Gudean, spoke at the right time, his tone full of awe and pride: "Now, what appears in our sight is the First Air Division, C Wing! This is a bomber wing that has made remarkable achievements in previous battles. They shuttled between artillery fire with the force of thunder, dropped bombs accurately countless times, and made indelible contributions to the victory of the war."
As Guderan introduced, the sky seemed to be split in two, and a dark cloud woven of steel and courage slowly approached. First came 60 Stuka dive bombers, which cut through the sky with their iconic roars. The unique design on their fuselages flashed coldly in the sun, as if each one was a messenger announcing death to the enemy. These planes flew in neat formations, and each dive seemed so precise and powerful, which reminded people of their chilling bombing scenes on the battlefield.
Next came the twenty He-177 heavy bombers, their huge bodies slowly moving in the air, like a mobile aerial fortress. These bombers are known for their powerful bomb load and long-distance flight capabilities, and are the backbone of strategic bombing missions. At this moment, they are showing their majesty and majesty with steady steps.
After the He-177, ten Lancaster bombers slowly joined the formation like elegant gentlemen. These British-made bombers also have a place in the Chinese Air Force due to their excellent performance and good reliability. Although they are few in number, each of them carries an important mission and is an indispensable force in the C Wing.
With the full display of the C Wing bomber group, the sky above the entire parade ground seemed to have turned into a spectacular picture. The bomber group kept changing its formation in the air, sometimes dispersing like dark clouds dispersing to reveal a moment of blue sky; sometimes gathering together like a storm is about to come, which is awe-inspiring.
Soon, the C Squadron's performance ushered in the most shocking scene - the dive bombing demonstration.
In the sky, sixty Stuka bombers began to slowly adjust their formation as if being pulled by an invisible hand. With an almost perfect tacit understanding, they gradually gathered into a huge circle, like a huge roulette wheel in the sky, slowly spinning and releasing endless majesty and power.
As the commander's order was given, the Stuka bomber group suddenly accelerated and dived like activated beasts. The roar of the engine reached its peak at this moment, intertwined with the whistling sound caused by air friction, forming a passionate war song.
Their noses were pointed directly at the ground, and they were roaring towards the long-prepared target area in the center of the parade ground at a heart-pounding angle.
At an altitude of about 300 meters above the ground, the Stuka bombers pressed the bomb-dropping button almost at the same time. At this moment, time seemed to freeze, and everyone's heartbeat accelerated with this action.
Then, dozens of training bullets poured down like raindrops, drawing perfect arcs in the air and landing on the target points drawn on the ground with incredible accuracy. Those circles with a diameter of about ten meters seemed to be given life and bloomed with brilliant light under the precise strikes of the training bullets.
The explosions were one after another, but in an orderly manner without a trace of chaos. The smoke and dust were everywhere, but they could not hide the shocking precision and efficiency. In the audience, people exclaimed in amazement, some covered their mouths, some widened their eyes, and some even stood up and applauded and cheered for this spectacular scene with all their might.
At this moment, the C Wing not only demonstrated its superb flying skills, but also announced to the world the outstanding strength and brilliant achievements of the Chinese Air Force in the field of bombing operations.
Air Force General Goering stood on the rostrum, his posture upright, his eyes revealing his pride and pride in the strength of the Chinese Air Force. He slowly turned around and faced the foreign guests present, his voice loud and confident: "Dear guests, today, I am very honored to be here to introduce to you the current situation and development of our Chinese Air Force."
He paused, looked around the room, and continued, "As the country's Great Wall in the sky, the Chinese Air Force has, after years of development, now built a large, well-equipped, and well-trained modern air force. We currently have a total of twelve aviation divisions, each of which is an elite force that has been strictly screened and trained. They are responsible for defending the country's airspace and maintaining regional peace."
Admiral Goering's speech speed gradually increased, and his words were full of passion: "What is even more proud is that our Chinese Air Force has a world-class team of pilots, with more than 3700 of the best. These pilots are not only highly skilled, but also have a high sense of responsibility and mission. They are the soul and core of the Chinese Air Force."
Then, he changed the subject and talked about the talent training system of the Air Force: "In order to continuously supply fresh blood to the Air Force, we have established a complete talent training system for the Air Force. From the Air Force Academy to training bases at all levels, to practical flight training, every link strives for excellence to ensure that every pilot can grow into a qualified air warrior in the shortest possible time."
"Speaking of equipment," Admiral Goering said more firmly, "the number of fighters, bombers, transport aircraft, trainers, reconnaissance aircraft, gliders, communication aircraft and other types of aircraft currently in service in the Chinese Air Force has exceeded 200,000. These equipments not only have excellent performance, but also come in a wide variety, which can meet different combat needs and ensure that we can maintain air superiority under any circumstances."
When Admiral Goering's words resounded through the conference hall like thunder, the face of Bird Empire Ambassador Seckt instantly became solemn. He stared at the confident Air Force Admiral on the stage with wide eyes and looked at him in disbelief. He was shocked and uneasy as never before. As a representative from the Bird Empire, which claims to have the best air force in the world, he was well aware of the air superiority his country had, but at this moment, this sense of superiority seemed to be rapidly disintegrating.
Joachim, the Foreign Minister of the Bird Empire, who was standing next to him, also felt the shock. He turned his head slightly and looked at Seckt, and both of them showed the same surprise and confusion in their eyes. Joachim shook his head slightly, as if to confirm whether he had heard something wrong, but Admiral Goering's clear and firm voice hit his eardrums again and again, forcing him to accept this fact.
"If...if what Admiral Goering said is true..." Joachim muttered silently in his heart, his tone full of disbelief, "Then, China's air force is actually so huge and so powerful!" He realized that the achievements of this great Eastern country in air force construction have far exceeded their imagination, and may even have reached a height that is difficult for all countries to achieve.
Even the Byrd Empire, which claims to have the strongest air force in the world, only owns about 120,000 aircraft. The United States, which is currently ranked second, only has 90,000 aircraft of all types in its air force.
Thinking of this, Joachim could not help but feel a chill. If what Goering said was true, then the Chinese Air Force had undoubtedly taken the lead and become the new overlord of the world's air force.
This is not only a huge challenge to the status of the Bird Empire Air Force, but also a profound reshaping of the global air force power structure. As the former world's number one, they now have to face this cruel reality and consider how to reposition their role on the future international stage.
