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

Even if the opponent has a heavy aircraft carrier, the maximum number of carrier-based aircraft it can accommodate will not exceed 150. However, the Yanhuang is equipped with about 400 carrier-based aircraft, even if these carrier-based aircraft are basic version, there is some gap in performance with the opponent's carrier-based aircraft, but as long as there is no generation gap, this gap can be smoothed out with the advantage of quantity.

As long as this aircraft carrier can be blown up, the remaining battleships in the opponent's fleet will be easy to deal with. Even if the opponent's fleet has behemoths like battleships, they will be seriously injured in the face of indiscriminate bombing by a large number of carrier-based aircraft.

"Ramsay, you come up with a battle plan, and let the carrier-based aircraft fly to bomb these bastards. If they dare to shoot down my carrier-based reconnaissance aircraft, no matter which force they belong to, they must leave their lives for me."

Ye Bai said something with gritted teeth and then turned and left the bridge. He was going to go to the hangar. In the previous naval battle, there was no threat from air fighters. The number of Fulmar carrier-based fighters equipped on the Yanhuang was It’s not that much. There is only one brigade of 64 in total.

On an aircraft carrier, the number of carrier-based fighter jets in a normal configuration should be about one-third of the total number of carrier-based aircraft. If the opponent’s aircraft carrier really It is a heavy aircraft carrier. Calculated based on the maximum number of carrier-based aircraft of 150, it should also be equipped with about 50 carrier-based fighter jets.

However, this is only a conventional configuration. Depending on the tasks performed by the aircraft carrier, the carrier-based aircraft on it will also be equipped. Changes have occurred, not to mention that the capacity of 150 carrier-based aircraft is also the most extreme number. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to equip so many carrier-based aircraft.

What's more, the opponent's aircraft carrier may not be a heavy aircraft carrier. It may be a heavy aircraft carrier. Light aircraft carriers and even escort aircraft carriers are possible. The 64 Fulmar carrier-based fighters equipped on the Yanhuang are enough to seize air supremacy.

But Ye Bai was also frightened by the sudden storm yesterday. I was afraid that the plan would not be able to keep up with the changes, and I was also worried that the opponent's aircraft carrier had an unconventional configuration. In addition, if the larger number could defeat the smaller number, why should there be a fair fight? This was a life-and-death battle.

When they came to the hangar, the ground crew members were all The personnel and mechanics were busy pushing the Fulmar fighter jets that had been filled with fuel and ammunition onto the transfer platform.

This time they were going to start a battle with a fleet with an aircraft carrier. , there are not a few carrier-based aircraft dispatched. It is too slow to use the two centerline elevators. We still have to rely on the power of the transmission platform to take off and land quickly. When

Ye Bai arrived at the hangar, the ground crew just happened to take off the first batch of approximately 20 Fulmar carrier-based fighters were transmitted to the flight deck through the transmission platform, and a large number of personnel were nervously refilling fuel and ammunition for other Fulmar carrier-based fighters. They were very busy.

Ye Bai Without delay, he directly opened the system mall and purchased another group of 64 Fulmar carrier-based fighters, along with the required pilots and ground crews. As soon as the new aircraft and ground crews arrived, he immediately fell into a busy state. , opened the fuel warehouse and ammunition warehouse, and transported out the aviation fuel and ammunition stored inside.

At the same time, Ye Bai also contacted Ramsay in the bridge through the communicator in the hangar, informing him , he added 64 Fulmar carrier-based fighter jets to the hangar.

After hearing the news, Ramsay immediately revised the previous combat plan and changed the number of carrier-based fighter jets originally prepared for the first batch from 2 squadrons to 32 The number of aircraft has been expanded to 64, while the number of Skua carrier-based fighter-bombers and Swordfish torpedo attack aircraft remains unchanged, still maintaining the size of 48 aircraft in 3 squadrons.

And there are more bombers and torpedoes in the hangar. The planes were seizing the time to refuel and mount aerial bombs and aerial torpedoes. As a follow-up attack force, they needed to prepare in advance.

This time, the opponent's fleet size reached as many as 20 ships, including aircraft carriers. Presumably there will also be cruisers and even battleships. One attack cannot completely destroy the entire fleet, and multiple rounds of bombing will be necessary.

By the time Ye Bai returned to the bridge, a total of 64 Fulmar carrier-based fighter jets had all taken off and rushed to the coordinates reported by the reconnaissance aircraft pilot as quickly as possible.

Through the transmission platform, one after another Skua carrier-based fighter-bombers are continuously transmitted to the flight deck. They will also take off one after another, and then fly in formation, rush to their destination, and wait for the carrier-based fighter group to set off first to snatch it. After gaining air supremacy, immediately launch an attack on the enemy fleet.

As time goes by, the Skua carrier-based fighter-bomber group responsible for the first round of attack has all taken off. Even half of the Swordfish torpedo attack has been launched, and it will soon be all launched.

Three Hawker Osprey carrier-based combat reconnaissance aircraft, still smoking thick black smoke, appeared in the sky. Seeing the shaky and unstable flying attitude, Ye Bai gritted his teeth in hatred.

There were eight carrier-based reconnaissance aircraft that rushed to the front for reconnaissance this time. As a result, five of them were shot down during the surprise attack, and the remaining three were all injured. The entire army was almost wiped out. The reconnaissance aircraft faced If a fighter jet has no speed advantage, it can only become a target unless the skills of the pilots on both sides are too different.

What's even more irritating is that the Hawker Osprey carrier-based combat reconnaissance aircraft is a two-seater aircraft. There are two pilots on one fighter aircraft. Five of them were shot down, which means that 10 pilots were unable to come back. I don't know how many of them were able to come back. He parachuted to escape and was able to rescue a few more people in the end.

Ramsay could not care about Ye Bai's sadness. He already knew about the situation of the carrier-based reconnaissance aircraft unit. Not to mention the radio contact, the effective detection range of the Yanhuang equipped on it reached 50 kilometers. The air search radar has also discovered the existence of these three carrier-based reconnaissance aircraft long ago.

Therefore, when he saw the serious injuries of these three Hawker Osprey carrier-based combat reconnaissance aircraft with his own eyes, Ramsay immediately asked the hangar to suspend the transfer of Swordfish torpedo attack aircraft, free up the flight deck, and let these three carrier-based combat reconnaissance aircraft The reconnaissance aircraft landed on the deck.

Thanks to the special rules of the world of navigation, battleships will not be sunk as easily as in reality, and the same is true for carrier-based aircraft. Like battleships, these carrier-based aircraft have an armor value. In battle, as long as the armor If the value is not empty, the fighter plane will not be shot down.

Of course, if the engine is destroyed or both wings are broken, the battleship will still fall even if the armor value is still there.

Under such rules, carrier-based aircraft still appear to be very fragile, far inferior to battleships, but at least the fighter aircraft have a much greater chance of survival in the battle, just like these three aircraft are still braving the thick black Smoke of the Hawker Osprey carrier-based combat reconnaissance aircraft.

Staggeringly, three carrier-based reconnaissance aircraft landed on the flight deck of the Yanhuang one after another, and were immediately pushed to both sides of the runway. Ground crews and engineers launched an emergency rescue, removing the two passengers in the cockpit. The pilot rescued it and then immediately put out the fire and inspected the fighter itself.

The runway was vacated, and the remaining Swordfish torpedo attack aircraft that had not yet taken off continued to take off from the flight deck in an orderly manner, flying to high altitudes to form a formation with their comrades who had taken off first.

Of course, the ground crew did not forget to take out the film from the high-altitude reconnaissance cameras on the three injured carrier-based reconnaissance aircraft, and then began to develop and print nervously as soon as possible. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

The developed photos were sent to the bridge as quickly as possible and placed on the transparent glass of the chart table. Ye Bai and Lu Teyan Si and Ramsey all gathered around and picked up these reconnaissance photos that were exchanged for their reputation as pilots.

Perhaps they were holding their breath in their hearts, or perhaps they felt that these reconnaissance photos were a bit heavy. As the main force, Lütjens and Ramsey looked at them very seriously. They would look at almost every valuable photo. quite a while

".~Commander, although our reconnaissance plane was attacked by local fighter jets, the pilots tried their best and the photos taken back are still very useful. According to photo analysis, the length of the opponent's aircraft carrier is only more than 100 meters, which is very likely It's just an escort carrier."

As an expert in aviation operations, after seeing the photos, Ramsay immediately analyzed the aircraft carrier that deserves the most attention in the enemy fleet. This made Ye Bai next to him breathe a huge sigh of relief. It was just an escort aircraft carrier. Even if the performance of the opponent's ship is better than that of the Borg, the capacity of the carrier-based aircraft is also limited, at most 40 aircraft, and the first batch of attack aircraft sent by Ramsey (Wang Nuohao) has a total of 150 aircraft. With its size, it can easily crush the opponent.

Nodding, Ye Bai turned his attention to Lütjens again. Since the only aircraft carrier in the opponent's fleet is not worthy of too much attention, the rest of the battleships in the fleet are more worthy. Pay more attention.

Seeing Ye Bai's gaze, Lütjens understood instantly and said immediately:"Commander, judging from the flag hanging on the mast, this is a fleet of pirate forces, with destroyers accounting for the majority. However, the existence of light cruisers and heavy cruisers was also discovered. Unfortunately, the number of photos is too small and the specific number cannot be accurately judged."

"Didn't find the battleship?"

Regarding Ye Bai's question, Lütjens shook his head with certainty and said:"Commander, at least from the analysis of these reconnaissance photos taken, I did not find any battleships in the opponent's fleet."

Ramsey also added next to him:"Commander, if the aircraft carrier in the opponent's fleet is really just an escort aircraft carrier,It's really not worth having a battleship act as a bodyguard. It would be good to have a heavy cruiser acting as an escort."

Obviously, through the levels of other battleships in the aircraft carrier fleet, Ramsay is more certain about his guess. If it is really a heavy aircraft carrier, there will definitely be battleships inside the sword guard.
