Onboard a Stuka dive bomber carrying out a mission at the front line, the pilot gazed down at the earth beneath his feet. He was like an eagle soaring in the sky, surveying his territory.
The Stuka, originally designed solely for dive bombing with its moderate flying speed and lackluster flight performance, was not really suitable for bombing missions alone.
Such an aircraft had virtually no self-defense capability when attacked by enemy planes—of course, that didn't apply to ace pilots like Rüdeler.
But now, in the skies, aside from the Tang Army's aircraft, there were only birds left, so it was only natural for the Stuka dive bombers to carry out missions alone.
Given the enemy's inability to reach the sky, the Stuka's poor flying performance was more than adequate, even superior... At this point in time, using Stuka as a fighter plane was not a problem at all.
