All-people naval warfare: from patrol boats to aircraft carrier fleets

Although it was a bit of a headache, Ye Bai still did not hesitate. He spent money to directly recruit 500 Marines and equipped them with corresponding weapons and ammunition. Together with some officers, he formed a garrison to protect the people in the small space. Safety of farmers and workers.

After all, the world of navigation is a world of naval warfare. These land warfare weapons are quite cheap, and in a small space, there are no other enemies to invade. You just need to be careful about wild beasts hurting people. The strength of a battalion is completely sufficient.

After doing this, Ye Bai left with some annoyance and returned to the hangar. Originally, all the money in his hand was intended to be used to replenish the carrier-based aircraft and pilots. Now it was better to take a trip to the small space of the logistics cabin. It actually cost nearly 3 million, and there was not much money left for carrier-based aircraft.

"Ramsey, have you got your organization ready? We need to prepare enough carrier-based aircraft as soon as possible. It is very dangerous here. A war may break out at any time. There is no time to waste."

As soon as he entered the hangar, Ye Bai called Ramsay who was busy here and prepared to complete the configuration of the carrier-based aircraft as soon as possible. After all, the Yanhuang has been upgraded to an aircraft carrier. Without the carrier-based aircraft, it would have almost no combat effectiveness.

Ramsay rolled his eyes helplessly, and said angrily:"Commander, the carrier-based aircraft can temporarily park part of the flight deck, and can also tether part of it at will until the hangar renovation is completed. Both are relatively simple."

"As for the organization of carrier-based aircraft, my commander, I don’t even know which carrier-based aircraft you have, and there is no way to set this organization."

Ye Bai slapped his head suddenly. He really made a mistake while busy. He actually made such a low-level mistake. He quickly said:"Wait a minute."

After saying that, Ye Bai opened the system mall and checked out the carrier-based aircraft for sale. He took a pen and paper and wrote down some of the data on the paper.

【Fulmar carrier-based fighter: wingspan 14.14 meters, length 12.24 meters, maximum level flight speed 398 kilometers per hour, ceiling 6500 meters, range 1255 kilometers, equipped with eight 7.7mm machine guns】

【Skua carrier-based fighter-bomber: wingspan 14.1 meters, length 10.8 meters, maximum level flight speed 360 kilometers per hour, ceiling 6150 meters, range 1300 kilometers, equipped with four 7.7mm machine guns and one 227KG bomb】

【Swordfish torpedo attack aircraft: wingspan 13.87 meters, length 10.87 meters, maximum level flight speed 222 kilometers per hour, ceiling 3260 meters, range 1658 kilometers, equipped with a 7.7mm machine gun, a 730KG torpedo or a maximum 680KG depth bomb , mines, bombs]

Ye Bai kept shaking his head while writing quickly on the paper. It is indeed the basic version. The performance of these carrier-based aircraft is actually not very good, but it is very difficult for players who have almost no anti-aircraft weapons nowadays. There is a threat, but not necessarily to those pirate fleets and aboriginal fleets.

Ye Bai only wrote down these three carrier-based aircraft on the paper. As for the reconnaissance aircraft, he didn't write about them, and he didn't plan to equip them. They were all rubbish anyway, so just let the carrier-based fighter jets make guest appearances.

Taking the paper from Ye Bai's hand, Ramsay just glanced at it and said with some disdain:"Commander, the performance of these carrier-based aircraft is already lagging behind. If possible, it is best to use more advanced ones." We will replace them with fighter jets."

Ye Bai curled his lips and said helplessly:"Colonel Ramsey, I also know about this situation, but we can only buy such goods at the moment, and there is no other choice."

Ramsey He shrugged his shoulders and said,"Okay, Commander, then I suggest that all carrier-based aircraft be unified, with 2 aircraft in a group, 4 aircraft in a squad, and 16 aircraft in a squadron. The specific number of carrier-based aircraft equipped depends on the Commander. ability"

"However, I would like to remind the commander that it is best to reduce the number of torpedo attack aircraft and increase the number of carrier-based bombers."

"Why?"

Ye Bai was stunned for a moment when he heard this. Usually, the torpedo planes on aircraft carriers are on par with bombers. Fighters are responsible for handling the anti-aircraft firepower on the battleships and opening up bombing routes for the bombers. The bombers follow up the bombing and destroy the superstructure of the battleships.

Finally. It is the slowest torpedo machine that enters the scene and uses the powerful attack power of the torpedo to finish off, completely damaging or even sinking the opponent's warship. Why does it seem that this is not what Ramsay means now. Ramsay's face changed. Seriously, he explained:"Commander, the captain, General Lütjens, just came here. I had an exchange with the general. According to the rules of this world, the lethality of torpedoes has been greatly weakened, and they are expensive. In terms of cost, aerial bombs are more cost-effective than torpedoes."

Speaking of this, Ramsay showed a weird smile on his face and continued:"Of course, if the commander has a rich family and a lot of money, then just pretend that I didn't say it. I heard that General Lütjens was in the naval battle. I really like to use torpedoes to attack."

Ye Bai glanced at Ramsey speechlessly. This is the black humor of Westerners. At this time, he still had the intention to joke. However, he also admitted that this guy was right. Unless he could produce torpedoes by himself, compression would Production costs, otherwise using torpedoes would be worse than using bombs.

Nodding, Ye Bai continued to ask:"Then how many carrier-based aircraft do you think we should equip now?"

"Commander, this depends on your financial situation, but I still recommend not to equip too many carrier-based aircraft in the early stage. After all, there are only 2 elevators on the Yanhuang, and the attendance rate of carrier-based aircraft is not high."

Now Ye Bai understood it completely, and quickly took Ramsay to discuss. Although the carrier-based aircraft sold in the system mall were lagging in performance, they also had an advantage, that is, they were cheap. A bare machine only cost less than 100,000 yuan..After upgrading the small space, Ye Bai still has more than 8 million left in his hands, and can purchase more than 80 carrier-based aircraft at once. Of course, it is certainly impossible to use all the money to purchase carrier-based aircraft. After all, he still needs to recruit pilots. As well as purchasing fuel, ammunition, etc., if necessary, you even need to purchase a batch of fighter aircraft spare parts.

Because of Ramsay's special status, he also knows some system rules that Lütjens does not know. In the great maritime world Among them, fighter planes are like battleships and will not be shot down directly by a shell.

However, the fighter plane will be damaged after being damaged. After returning home, it will not be able to take off again without repairs and replacement of damaged spare parts. With

Ramsay as a professional as a staff consultant, and based on Ye Bai's current financial situation, he quickly worked out the Yanhuang's current carrier-based aircraft establishment.

In view of the fact that there are currently no air threats, the number of carrier-based fighter jets It doesn't need much. It only equips 2 teams with a total of 8 Fulmar carrier-based fighter jets, which are temporarily used as reconnaissance aircraft.

As the main force of the Yanhuang's long-range strike at present, the number of Skua carrier-based fighter-bombers is much greater. It has equipped a brigade with a total of 48 aircraft. Coupled with a squadron of 16 Swordfish torpedo attack aircraft, the Yanhuang is currently equipped with a total of 72 carrier-based aircraft.

This number of carrier-based aircraft has reached far. It far exceeds the carrier-based aircraft accommodation standard of an escort aircraft carrier, and even reaches the level of an Ark Royal-class light aircraft carrier, that is, it has an aircraft inventory modified with space crystals., otherwise, this would simply not be possible.

72 carrier-based aircraft, plus more pilots, corresponding fuel, aerial bombs, torpedoes, ammunition and other things, consumed all the funds in Ye Bai's hands, leaving only 500,000 as a final reserve..

This is because there is no reserve of carrier-based aircraft spare parts, otherwise even the 500,000 cannot be saved. Fortunately, the power equipment obtained previously has not been sold and can now be put to use directly.

Otherwise, the energy demand for the small space of the upgraded logistics cabin and the renovated hangar will increase significantly. Without adding additional power equipment, the Yanhuang's own power system will not be able to carry it at all, and it will not even be able to reach a speed of 18 knots. Can't keep it.

Naturally, not all of the 72 carrier-based aircraft in total would be placed in the hangar. According to Ramsey's suggestion, Ye Bai placed 4 Fulmar carrier-based fighter jets and 16 Skua carrier-based fighter-bombers in the hangar. On the flight deck, if something happens, you can take off immediately without having to urgently mobilize carrier-based aircraft from the hangar.

After finishing these things, Ye Bai finally had time to go to the restaurant for a late meal. He returned to the bridge with a relaxed body, and explained to Lütjens that he should recover all the warships sent out.

The sky has gradually darkened, and the preparations on the Yanhuang are almost complete. It has initially achieved combat effectiveness. There is no need to worry too much, and it can finally rest peacefully.

On this quiet night, Ye Bai, who had achieved his biggest goal this time, could naturally sleep peacefully, but the other players were different.

Tomorrow is the last day of this battle for resource points. Whether it is players who failed before or players who just sat back and watched the fight between tigers and tigers from the beginning, they all started to take action at this time.

Players contacted each other through the chat section and formed loose player alliances. Many player organizations also took the opportunity to recruit players and formed a larger fleet, quickly approaching the resource points in the activity space.

Under the dark lights, night battles broke out in many places. Although these night battles did not last long and were quite chaotic, they fully demonstrated the urgency in the hearts of the players.

You can imagine how fierce the battle for resource points will be after dawn, but that doesn't matter to Ye Bai. With the long-range air strike force, he no longer has to risk getting close to the resource point battlefield. No matter how large the player's fleet is, it can't stop him, and safety is greatly guaranteed..
