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

What's more, the number of Fulmar carrier-based fighter jets that took off from the pirate aircraft carrier was not large, only two. It was impossible to catch up. Although these four SBD carrier-based reconnaissance aircraft were in order to monitor the pirates below at all times. The aircraft carrier did not choose to escape, but wandered high in the sky.

It gave the Fulmar carrier-based fighter a good opportunity to attack, but the speed and quantity were not as good as others, and even the firepower was only half as good. After chasing for several times in the sky, there was no result.

When the pirate aircraft carrier below discovered this situation, the three warships quickly pulled anchor and set sail, heading towards the battlefield. It seems that this group of pirates also discovered that something was wrong and wanted to join the main fleet.

It's a pity that there are 4 SBD carrier-based reconnaissance aircraft in the sky that act as eyes, and they can see their actions clearly. It is impossible to escape quietly. Through the radio station, the pirates' movements are conveyed to them. He captured the attack aircraft group in the rear and the Yanhuang.

With this movement of the pirate aircraft carrier, the slow speed was undoubtedly exposed. Ramsay, who was on the Yanhuang, rolled his eyes and could almost confirm that this was just an escort aircraft carrier. After all, the slow speed was still A small number of carrier-based aircraft have already leaked their identities.

The pirate carrier did not run very far, and the chase in the sky did not last long. 32 F4F Wildcat carrier-based fighters quickly arrived at the battlefield at a flying speed of more than 500 kilometers. As soon as they made contact, they fired with 412.7mm empty machine guns. Shot down the two Fulmar carrier-based fighter jets.

After that, without any hesitation, they quickly dispersed, lowered their flying altitude, and launched attacks from all directions towards the three pirate warships below.

"Da da da"、"Da da da"、""Da da da da" tongues of fire spewed out, and the two Fulmar fighter jets that had just taken off from the flight deck of the pirate aircraft carrier fell headlong into the dense rain of bullets before even raising their altitude. Arriving at the sea, even the other carrier-based aircraft moored on the flight deck were also baptized by the dense rain of bullets. The pirate ground staff operating on the deck were even beaten into pieces, with a large amount of blood and broken limbs. splashing everywhere

"Tom Tom Tom"、"Tom Tom Tom"、""Boom, boom, boom."

However, even though they encountered low-altitude strafing from the little wildcats, the pirates did not surrender and were still trying their best to resist. The carrier-based aircraft could not take off for combat, and the anti-aircraft weapons on the three warships did not rest. They shot towards the sky. He hit hard.

At this altitude, both the pilots flying Wildcats and the pilots flying reconnaissance planes were almost able to see the three pirate warships clearly with the naked eye, and judge their levels immediately. Come out.

An escort aircraft carrier, a heavy cruiser and a light cruiser. When most of the main force of this pirate fleet is on the battlefield about 50 kilometers ahead and a battle breaks out with the Isin Island fleet, those who stay behind It only has this little power.

The total number of air defense weapons on the three battleships is not small, but it is not of much use. After all, the little wild cats fly very fast.

Without forming air defense The formation forms a tight air defense firepower network, and without proximity fuses, the air defense firepower composed of just three warships will not pose much of a threat to even the Fulmar carrier-based fighter jets, let alone the faster Ono. Cat.

What's more, the F4F Wildcat carrier-based fighter is equipped with 12.7mm air machine guns. Although the number is half less than that of the Fulmar carrier-based fighter, with only 4 guns, its firepower is not weak.

12.7mm caliber If the bullet hits the human body, it will definitely create a big hole, and the body can be directly broken. If multiple bullets hit the human body at the same time, they can directly turn the human body into a pile of flesh.

Such a powerful force actually has a certain effect on the hull of the battleship. If you are lucky enough, you can directly penetrate the porthole glass, drive a large number of bullets into the bridge, and completely damage the command system inside.

But this kind of luck is not said to be rare in a century. , at least it is a rare encounter in ten years. Besides, these little wildcats themselves have no hope of sinking these three pirate warships with the help of those 4 small machine guns. They are just to clean up the anti-aircraft firepower of the warships and prepare for the follow-up arrival. The bombers and torpedo planes have opened up a safe attack route.

If you want to destroy the anti-aircraft firepower on the pirate warship, it is naturally impossible to rely on the 12.7mm air machine gun. The real threat, the only one that can do this is to mount it on the F4F The two 45KG-level aerial bombs under the wings of the Wildcat carrier-based fighter.

Although aerial bombs of this level are small bombs and have limited damage to the battleship hull and armor, if they are thrown into the air defense position, they will naturally be a The shot was accurate, and a bomb fell. All the people and weapons in the entire position were blown into the sky. The sparse anti-aircraft firepower was not a big problem for the 30 or so F4F Wildcat carrier-based fighters. With more than Flying at a speed of 500 kilometers, aerial machine gun bullets and 45KG-level aerial bombs were thrown onto the pirate warship.

"boom"、"boom"、""Boom!"

In the not too violent explosions, the air defense positions were blown to pieces. The losses in weapons and personnel were not small. Even though the armor value of the three battleships was not damaged much, But in fact, it was almost undefended.

Not long after it was ravaged by a group of little wild cats, a large group of small black dots flew from the sky again, which was the first wave of attack aircraft sent by Ramsay. , 32 SBD Dreadnought dive bombers, and 32 TBF Avenger torpedo attack aircraft.

Thanks to the efforts of the previous group of little wildcats, many anti-aircraft weapons on the three pirate warships were destroyed, even those that were not destroyed In the air defense position, the personnel operating the weapons also suffered heavy casualties.

Under this situation, the attack fleet that had just arrived on the battlefield encountered little interference and quickly passed by, using 700KG-level aerial bombs mounted on the fuselage. 907KG-level aviation torpedoes launched indiscriminate bombings on three pirate warships.

The SBD Dauntless dive bomber and TBF Avenger torpedo attack aircraft were not only superior in performance to the two previously equipped carrier-based aircraft, but also The key is that the aerial bombs and aerial torpedoes that can be mounted are also much heavier. If such heavy aerial bombs and aerial torpedoes fall on a pirate warship, the damage they can cause to the pirate warship is quite terrifying.

Take a 700KG-level aerial bomb as an example. If this one goes down, it can blast a huge hole in the horizontal armor of the pirate warship, and the armor value will also be reduced. It will lose 1,500 points, which is quite scary.

You must know that the total hull armor value of a Linxian-class light cruiser is only 12,000 points, and the armor value of a New Orleans-class heavy cruiser is more, only 24,000. It's just a point. If attacked by such a heavy aerial bomb, a dozen or so can be blown to pieces.

The power of a 907KG aerial bomb is more terrifying than a 700KG aerial bomb. Not only can it cause nearly 2,000 points of armor to a pirate warship, value of damage, the key is that the damage to the battleship hull structure is simply incomparable to that of aerial bombs.

A total of 32 700KG-level aerial bombs and 32 907KG-level aerial torpedoes were used to deal with only 3 pirate warships, with an average of one The pirate warship will withstand the explosion damage of 10 aerial bombs and 10 aerial torpedoes.

What's more, those SBD fearless dive bombers not only carry one 700KG aerial bomb, but also two 45KG level aerial bombs on the wings. As for the small aerial bombs.

Such air strike power left the three pirate warships with no ability to resist and no chance to escape.

The first to suffer was the pirate escort aircraft carrier, which had suffered from the F4F Wildcat before. The carrier-based fighter jets strafed at low altitudes, and the wooden flight deck was also blasted with many small craters by the 45KG aerial bombs dropped by the Wildcats. The carrier-based aircraft moored on the flight deck also suffered from the intensive rain of bullets. Almost all of them were injured, and some carrier-based aircraft even caught fire.

Now that there are more powerful aerial bombs and aerial torpedoes, this escort carrier is even more pitiful. The 12,000-point armor value cannot withstand the attacks of a few aerial bombs and aerial torpedoes, and it will soon be with little left. The carrier-based aircraft slowly sank into the water.

The escort aircraft carrier could not withstand it, and the pirate light cruiser was not much better. After all, the aircraft carrier's anti-aircraft firepower was much stronger than that of the light cruiser. As a result, under the indiscriminate bombardment of the attack fleet, the pirate light cruiser was It was bombed and sunk to the bottom of the sea earlier than the escort aircraft carrier.

The escort carrier and light cruiser were sunk, leaving only one heavy cruiser struggling on the sea. After all, it is a heavy cruiser. The armor is thicker, reaching more than 20,000 points, and its anti-strike capability is also stronger. , naturally you can persist longer.

Of course, the reason why this heavy cruiser is still floating on the sea is also related to Ye Bai's order. He has not forgotten that the last time this guy Luo Mingxuan surrendered with a heavy cruiser, not only did he let him have sex in vain A Navy lieutenant colonel also received a New Orleans-class heavy cruiser.

Ye Bai would not miss such a good thing, so after receiving the report from the frontline pilots that his own attack aircraft group had the advantage of crushing them, he naturally wanted to make some showy moves.

The bombing intensity against this pirate heavy cruiser was not very strong. Almost all of them were directed at the air defense position. The idea was to destroy all its anti-aircraft firepower and resistance to see if it could be forced to land..
