Bursting through the enemy planes, the Blackhawks whipped their ships around to make another run. The same speed that made the lightning attack possible meant the turn took seconds longer than prop-driven planes would have needed. It wasn't enough to help the Nazi fighters. Reeling from the first engagement, they struggled to get back into some sort of defensive formation. The Blackhawk jets ripped into them. The sheer number of enemy fighters kept the fight from being completely one sided. Machine guns and cannon filled the sky with steel-jacketed lead. A few of the slugs found the P-80s but hit nothing vital.
Far below, twelve sleek, twin-engined jet fighters lifted from runways carved from the dark green forest. A fearsome red and white shark's mouth grinned from below the nose of each of the Messerschmitt Me 262 Swallows. Their engines roaring, the German jets climbed skyward toward the raging battle.
