In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, the main force of the National Army Air Force was Hawke III (Modified version of Curtis BF2C-1). The advantage of the biplane is that the horizontal turning radius is small, the operation is easier, the lift is large and it is not easy to stall; it can also be used as a ground attack aircraft. However, the top speed of the monoplane is much higher, and it is more suitable for vertical maneuvering and one-hit disengagement. At that time, there was no international conclusion that speed was the key advantage, and Hawker III was still a cutting-edge and not outdated. After that, the Soviet Union assisted (sold) a batch of Iraqi 15 (two wings) and Iraqi 16 (single wing) to help China (for field tests). The double-wings that appear in the movie are mainly Yi-15, and the single-wing should be Yi-16. The remaining Hawke three are mainly used for training.
After the fall of Guangzhou at the end of 1938, China's way of safely importing key materials through the British and French concessions has been cut off. Fangcheng Port, Qinzhou Port and Beihai Port in Guangxi, and Vietnam (French Indochina) still have a small amount of import channels. British, French, and American ships sailing freely on the Yangtze River as stipulated by the unequal treaties became the only safe line of communication. It is not easy to get a p40. There are some memoirs of the Air Force of the Republic of China, you can take a look, such as His Excellency Lai Mingtang. Flying in the sky is indeed a hero. The drawbacks are also that many factions are fighting, leading to a waste of talents, and garbage ground handling leads to a low rate of aircraft availability.
There is nothing wrong with the Republic of China Air Force being a handsome guy. Have a good education (at least four years of military school, the difficulty is equivalent to a bachelor's degree), proficient in English, first-class physical fitness, adequate exercise, and enjoy the salary standard of the army commander and even the general officer (there is no hardship of living in the wind, it is actually more comfortable). Even if such a person has a weak face, his appearance, demeanor, body and temperament are all first-class beautiful men. Contrary to what most people think, the Air Force of the Republic of China is not short of aircraft, and the money that Song Meiling saved is also useful... The main reason is that there is a shortage of pilots. The training of pilots is very slow, and only the elite among them can control fighter jets.
Chennault's reluctance to let the rookie fight is also the same idea. As for the Bishan air battle reflected in the movie, the first encounter with a Zero fighter was a big defeat. Zero's speed, level, and rate of climb are no joke. Britain and the United States were also beaten into dogs at the beginning. This is really impossible.
Advantages: good style of painting, handsome actors, and careful scenes. With enough conscience, the sky is full of red, all kinds of suffering. Emotions are enough.
Disadvantages: It's mainly a few big stars who show their faces... The plot is illogical... Can't stand scrutiny. It's as if the movie is a combination of three stories. Very insulting to intelligence.
This film is only released overseas, I watched it online. But to be able to gather such bad comments... The tap water is really powerful enough. There is a heroic image of Xiao Cui, who is dead. you know
