Chapter 1676, MacArthur(3/4)
"B10 is like this. But the horsepower is greater. The total power is about 3400 horsepower. The take-off weight is about 15 tons."
"You said the 150-meter runway?"
"Yes."
"That's impossible!"
"Is it really impossible?"
“According to the data you provide, at least 380 meters of runway is required.”
"Ah? Is there such a big difference?"
Zhang Yong frowned.
In my impression, the B-25 bomber took off on the aircraft carrier deck.
I don’t remember the specific sliding distance. It should be between 150 meters and 180 meters, or even less than 150 meters.
Obviously, this is a very limiting number.
It should be noted that the current take-off and taxiing distance of this P108 bomber is more than 800 meters.
Landing without load, the sliding distance is more than 1,300 meters, or even longer.
These days, there is no engine reverse push.
They rely solely on landing gear brakes. It is difficult to slow down speed.
There seems to be no speed reduction parachutes or something.
Blocking cable? None.
It is indeed a very big challenge to take off at a length of 150 meters.
"Zhang, your question is very interesting."
"I'm just giving you a question worth thinking about."
"I guess you should want to take off a long-range bomber on an aircraft carrier."
"Yes. This is my whimsical."
"The idea is good. But it's difficult to do. It's impossible for aircraft carriers to take off long-range bombers."
"That's what I'm thinking about."
Zhang Yong stopped talking. This topic will not be raised in the future.
Silently modify the route and adjust the error.
Finally, the land ahead was looking at it, and the plane successfully approached Manila.
Sure enough, it's good to have a plane.
Even if the speed is only about 350 kilometers per hour, it will take only a few hours to go from Changsha to Manila.
In this era, it was also a pleasure to go abroad. You don’t need a visa and you can get in and out casually.
Of course, it's just for him.
"Zhang, prepare to approach."
"good."
Doolittle contacts related parties.
Of course, it is impossible for the plane to break in rashly, which will cause misunderstandings.
If you land forcibly, you will be considered an uninvited guest.
If the ground troops fire, then you'll be sabotaged. It's too unprofitable to die.
Contact in advance.
Discuss landing.
Soon, Zhang Yong drove his plane and landed according to the instructions.
The radar map scans around and finds many red dots. It feels like a long time ago.
Do you want to run to Manila to capture the Japanese invaders?
fine.
As long as you have money, you don't mind at all.
Anyway, I have come. I have caught a few Japanese spies to worship the sky and earn some travel expenses back.
Wonderful...
The radar map also shows several acquaintance markers.
McFarlane…
Godric...
Rodhart…
They are all there.
It seems that a foreign country is not lonely!
Even, a very special identity was discovered, a woman.
Medicaha.
Liao Panxi's aunt.
I met it in Hangzhou. I haven't seen it since.
Unexpectedly, she was in Manila.
Her business has already reached Manila? Or come to escape the war?
Indeed, before the arrival of the Japanese invaders, many wealthy Chinese businessmen on the coast went to Southeast Asia to avoid the war.
There are already many Chinese people here, and many people have something to do with this.
"Zhang! Thank you!"
"Need not!"
The group walked out of the cabin.
Many people came up to greet them. They were all Americans.
McFarlane is the leader.
There are many locals nearby. They are all dark-skinned and hot.
Manila in September is also a hot wave. After all, it is a tropical area. It feels like you are in a sauna.
"Zhang, we're meeting again."
"I suspect you encouraged Doolittle to bring me here."
"Actually, it's Madman who wants to see you."
"good."
Zhang Yong nodded.
McFarlane took Zhang Yong to rest and have a meal.
Forget the local food. It has a strong curry flavor. But there is iced coke.
The National Air Force used to have Coke, but it disappeared later.
There is a sale in the Shanghai Concession, but you have to pay for it yourself. Of course, Zhang Yong is not happy.
A dignified inspector, you still have to pay for a few bottles of Coke by yourself. It’s really a joke. Is this the Republic of China?
So, I haven't drunk for a long time.
It is worthy of being the US-Philippine coalition, and the treatment is good.
Eat and drink enough.
Then……
Someone came to invite him and said that MacArthur wanted to meet him.
So I washed my face and sorted out my Zhongshan suit.
I got a car to pick it up and arrived at a small western-style building. It was Madame's residence.
A little disappointed...
It seems not a luxury estate!
It doesn't look rich.
"please."
