"Boom boom boom!"

A U.S. P-51 fighter jet was hit by the cannon of a German T152 fighter jet, and the tail of the plane was blown to pieces. After the plane lost its balance, it fell to the ground dragging thick smoke.

Although, under the attack of German fighter jets, the U.S. military has lost a lot of fighter jets. However, these U.S. fighter jets still seemed not afraid of death, and rushed towards the German heavy bombers like moths to a flame, trying to destroy these heavy bombers full of bombs. Because the U.S. Army Air Force is also equipped with the B-17 heavy bomber, the more powerful B-24 heavy bomber is also about to enter service. They know very well how terrifying these heavy bombers that can carry tons of bombs are.

It's just that the Luftwaffe has too many **** fighters. There are more than 1,800 powerful T152 fighter jets alone. That's already more than the total number of fighter jets deployed by the US Army Air Forces in the Northeast. What's more, these heavy bombers of the German army are protected by as many as 1,200 BF-110 long-range fighter jets.

It is almost impossible for the fighter jets of the US Army Air Force to break through the blockade and attack the heavy bombers of the Luftwaffe.

"God! Those Americans are not afraid of death? Their flying skills are obviously very good. It's really boring to kill such a rookie." After a German pilot shot down an American fighter jet, he showed off on the radio channel. .

"Idiot, be careful. Americans are indeed good. But rookies can also kill you. Don't capsize in the gutter."

"Don't worry, squadron leader, everything will be fine!"

"Oh, hell. I was bitten by the Americans, help me kill him!" Before he could finish his chatter, the German pilot screamed.

The pilots of the U.S. Army Air Forces are mostly recruits. In general, compared with the Luftwaffe, there is still a big gap. However, I have to admit that there are still some outstanding pilots in the U.S. Army Air Forces. Their flying skills are so skilled that even the Luftwaffe's fighter jets are very advanced, they can compete with them.

But even so, it cannot change the result that the U.S. Army Air Force was suppressed and lost in this air battle.

"Attention all wings, arrive in Portland in ten minutes. Prioritize the bombing of the nearby airport, and then launch a bombing of the city's industrial area." The general in charge of the bombing operation ordered.

"Yes, General!" The captains of the German flying wings replied. Then the order was passed on.

The fighter jets of the U.S. Army Air Force no longer pose any threat to the German fleet. Instead, what needs to be paid attention to now is the anti-aircraft firepower on the ground. Compared with the heavy machine guns equipped on U.S. fighter jets, the anti-aircraft guns on the ground are truly deadly. Whether it is a large-caliber anti-aircraft gun or a small-caliber anti-aircraft gun, it can pose a deadly threat to the German heavy bombers.

"Fighters cover and suppress ground anti-aircraft fire. Dive bombers destroy American anti-aircraft fire. Bombers prepare to drop bombs!"

A frame of T152 fighter jets began to dive down from high altitude. Their target will be the anti-aircraft firepower around the US military airport.

"Fire!"

The commander of the air defense force on the ground also gave the order to fire.

"Boom boom boom!"

The anti-aircraft guns deployed by the U.S. military on the ground began to shoot wildly. Large-caliber 127mm anti-aircraft guns, 40mm and 20mm small-caliber anti-aircraft guns began to fire violently one after another.

One after another anti-aircraft artillery shells roared and flew into the sky.

Some German fighter planes failed to evade these anti-aircraft fire in time and were blown to pieces on the spot.

Fortunately, those heavy bombers are at an altitude of tens of thousands of meters at the moment. Generally speaking, very little anti-aircraft fire can threaten them.

"Boom boom boom!"

German fighters began to clear the anti-aircraft fire. Machine guns fired, turning the U.S. air defense positions into a sea of flames.

Many U.S. air defense soldiers were shot and killed, and air defense weapons were also destroyed.

"Woo!"

German dive bombers also began to attack. These bombers carrying heavy aerial bombs directly dropped the bombs on the US anti-aircraft artillery positions at a nearly vertical angle.

"Boom!"

The bomb exploded, and the entire anti-aircraft emplacement was razed to the ground. The anti-aircraft troops have disappeared, and even the anti-aircraft guns have been blown to a state of spare parts.

Although, the US anti-aircraft firepower on the ground opened fire desperately, trying to shoot down the German fighter planes in the sky. However, their real results are pitiful. On the contrary, those anti-aircraft firepower points were constantly pulled out by German fighter jets and dive bombers.

In less than ten minutes, the US air defense firepower was almost destroyed.

At this time, the German bomber group, which had been on standby at high altitude, began to attack.

A frame of H-11 medium bombers, H-21 heavy bombers and H-31 heavy bombers began to drop bombs in turn.

The bomb fell to the ground like rain.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Violent explosions continued to sound, and the entire airport was turned into ruins at a speed visible to the naked eye. Buildings, including command towers, hangars, dormitories, ammunition depots, etc., were all destroyed in the explosion.

In the face of these bombs falling from the sky, the US military's airport was destroyed in a very short period of time.

The huge German fleet, after dispersing the intercepted fighter jets of the U.S. Army Air Forces, dispersed into multiple units, assigned to attack various targets in Maine. These targets include airports and factories. Especially those factories related to the military industry, such as engine factories, bearing factories, steel factories, other non-ferrous metal smelting factories, etc., have become the focus of bombing by the Luftwaffe.

Even if the U.S. military has been prepared for a long time, it has deployed a large amount of anti-aircraft firepower. However, the obstacles these anti-aircraft firepower can cause to the Luftwaffe are very limited. Of course, some fighters were shot down by ground anti-aircraft fire. But the Luftwaffe also nearly completed its bombing missions.

Portland, the largest city in Maine, had its suburban factories completely reduced to ruins under heavy bombing by the Luftwaffe. Even the urban area was inevitably affected. Part of the urban area was also bombed into ruins, causing many casualties.

Not only the bombing of the Luftwaffe was successful, but the German Navy's carrier fleet also launched an attack on the coastal cities of Maine.

When the German Air Force and Navy's carrier-based aircraft units dropped all the bombs and began to return. Important targets throughout Maine were nearly destroyed. Many places were bombed into ruins by the German army.
