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

With the approximate target location provided by the airborne radar and the lit bonfire on the ground as a reference, the pilots flying the F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter found the target of the attack quite easily.

There are actually a lot of lights on the pirate island below. These pirates who are drunk all day long will not sleep peacefully so early. They are either eating and drinking or having fun. Many buildings are full of lights. The lights are bright.

Even without the piercing air defense siren that suddenly resounded throughout the island, the drunken pirates below already knew that a group of uninvited guests were coming from the sky. The roar of the engine was particularly loud in the night environment. Deafening.

The roar of the carrier-based aircraft's engine is no stranger to these pirates who have been robberies at sea all year round. However, their brains, stimulated by wine and sex, did not react for a while. They did not understand why their own carrier-based aircraft was still operating at night. To take off and take off.

Most of the pirates subconsciously thought that this was a carrier-based aircraft taking off from their own airport. They never thought that an enemy would launch an air attack on the island under such night conditions. Even the roar that resounded throughout the island The blaring air raid sirens did not alert them

"The more than 100 warships of various types parked at the port dock are almost empty, with no one on duty at all. The air defense positions around the ground airport are even more empty, and every door is high. The anti-aircraft gun with its muzzle pointed diagonally at the sky, but no one could operate it. The

F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter group flying over the pirate island lowered its flight altitude without any interference or obstruction, and headed towards the 5-seat The ground airport launched a dive attack.

With a unique whistling sound, one after another 700KG heavy aerial bombs detached from the belly of the F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter jet and landed on the ground airport under the influence of gravity.

"boom"、"boom"、""

Boom!" Under the dark night conditions, huge fireballs rose into the sky. They were particularly dazzling under the night. Violent explosions came one after another, drowning out the roar of the carrier-based aircraft's engine.

They stayed outside the ground airport. The carrier-based aircraft on the runway were the first to bear the brunt and were affected by the explosive power of the aerial bombs. The shock wave of the explosion directly lifted the carrier-based aircraft, which was not too light, directly away.

Even the carrier-based aircraft with a metal structure , unable to withstand such impact, accompanied by bursts of harsh"crunching""、"With a"crunch" sound, these affected carrier-based aircraft were blown to pieces.

Even more unlucky ones were directly attacked by aerial bombs falling from the sky. When the aerial bombs exploded, In the huge fireball, they were blown to pieces on the spot, and not even a skeleton could be found.

Fortunately, these pirates had no military discipline and were not too vigilant. Even at the ground airport, they were not full of fuel or oil. Carrier-based aircraft with full bombs are on combat readiness, so when one carrier-based aircraft is affected by the explosion, it does not cause the explosion of fuel and ammunition. Otherwise, the explosion effect will be even more impressive. The first attack There are only about 200 F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter jets in this wave, dispersed to 5 ground airports. On average, there are only about 40 F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter jets over one ground airport. One F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter carries a 700KG Level aerial bombs, more than 40 of them add up to 28 tons, which is enough to drink a bottle of pirate ground airport.

"boom"、"boom"、""Boom!"

The Hellcat pilots did not show any mercy. They quickly passed over the airport and dropped the mounted aerial bombs. Their attack targets were not just the airport runway or the carrier-based aircraft on the runway. , airport towers, fuel depots, hangars and even ammunition depots are all targets of their attack.

However, compared with the runway, these fuel depots, hangars and ammunition depots are of great significance, even if they do not have high military literacy. Pirates all know the key points of prevention. They are all made of reinforced concrete. Without direct hits from a large number of bombs, they will be completely destroyed quickly.

The pilot of the F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter obviously also understood this. At that time, I was worried about the pirates' ground anti-aircraft firepower, so I dropped the mounted 700KG aerial bomb first.

As a result, I found that the surroundings were quiet all the time. There were no anti-aircraft shells exploding in the surrounding area, and no carrier-based aircraft took off to intercept. , which made them feel relaxed and at the same time a little reluctant to waste heavy aerial bombs. With a push of the operating lever, the Hellcat carrier-based fighters that had thrown out the aerial bombs mounted under the belly began to shoot at low altitude. Pressing the shooting button on the operating stick, the three rockets mounted on the left side of the wing completed ignition instantly, and then flew out from under the wing.

"boom"、"boom"、""Boom"

This kind of uncontrolled rocket was originally used in air combat. Now it is used to bomb ground targets. The effect is naturally somewhat poor. But now the airport below is full of pirates running around and parked and unable to move. Carrier-based aircraft do not need any accuracy at all.

Compared with 700KG aerial bombs, the explosive power of these rockets is naturally much smaller, but they pose a great threat to the runway of ground airports and carrier-based aircraft parked on the runway. It is enough. If a rocket directly hits a carrier-based aircraft, it can still blow it to pieces.

After destroying the aerial bombs and rockets, the pilots of these Hellcat carrier-based fighter jets are not satisfied and continue to stick to the ground. During the flight, the 12.7mm air machine gun equipped on the fighter plane was used to fire at the airport in bursts.

Under the influence of tracer bullets, the tongues of flames were particularly conspicuous in the night, just like fire whips, killing the pirates on the airport. And the carrier-based aircraft will be beaten to pieces.

In other words, these carrier-based aircraft are all F6F Hellcats. The larger fuselage and strong power enable them to be equipped with more powerful firepower. If they are replaced by those F4F Wildcat carrier-based aircraft, Fighters do not have such an attack effect.

Thanks to the industrial system of Speer, who is in charge of the entire small space of the logistics cabin, the original F4F Wildcat carrier-based fighter jets at the aircraft manufacturer have completely stopped production and switched to the production of F6F Hell Cat carrier-based fighter.

Later, the birth of airborne radar rapidly increased the production of the F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter that originally only wanted a small amount of equipment. Especially after the emergence of Nimitz, Speer was asked to urgently produce a batch of The F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter jets were on standby, so they could fly 200 Hellcat carrier-based fighter jets at once.

It was only then that the drunken pirates finally woke up, and the wine they drank had turned into cold sweat all over their bodies. It seeped through the pores above and below. Even if their minds were not clear, they understood that this was not their own carrier-based aircraft group at all, but an invasion of enemy aircraft. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Nor Knowing who was leading the charge, the pirates scattered all over the island ran quickly towards the port terminal and ground airport. Some guys were disheveled and even their shoes were missing. Don’t get me wrong. , surrounded by dozens of F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter jets and bombarded indiscriminately, the five ground airports have been plunged into a sea of ​​​​fire, and the originally flat airport runways have also been bombarded with craters.

Although the tower, oil depot, hangar and Because the ammunition depot is too important, it has not been completely blown up yet, but the entire airport has been blown into ruins, with broken carrier aircraft wreckage everywhere. As for the pirates in the airport, they have long been burned to pieces. Piles of black charcoal.

Such a tragic scene. Those pirates who are afraid of death will not rush into the sea of ​​​​fire, even if they know very well that there are still some carrier-based aircraft in the hangar that are still intact. It is undamaged and can take off, and no one will foolishly run into the hangar.

The targets of these guys are only the air defense positions around the hangar and the warships parked on the port pier. Now there are a large number of carriers above them. Planes were constantly dive-bombing, and only anti-aircraft artillery and warships could give them some sense of security.

The intelligence officers and Marines who had sneaked into the island before had only ascertained the approximate locations of the five ground airports. After all, they were too conspicuous and difficult to avoid being discovered. Instead, they were the air defense positions around the airports, because There was a certain cover-up, and the time was too tight, so it was not exposed. Therefore, when providing ground guidance to the attack aircraft group in the air, these air defense positions were not included.

This group of pirates made the right choice at this time. All five ground airports were bombed. Even if there were still many carrier-based aircraft surviving in the 1.6 aircraft depot, the runways were bombed into craters, making it impossible to take off. so easy.

Besides, what if these carrier-based aircraft take off? Without airborne radar, these carrier-based aircraft do not even have the ability to fight at night. At this time, flying into the sky will become a toy for the hell cat's paws.

What's more, the reaction speed of these pirates was too slow. Before they could reach the air defense positions and the warships at the port, the F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter groups that had been wreaking havoc in the sky for most of the day had already dropped all their aerial bombs. and rockets, raised the flight altitude, reorganized into formation in the air and returned.

Before these pirates who desperately ran to the air defense positions had time to take out the artillery shells from the ammunition depot, the F6F Hellcat carrier-based aircraft group in the sky had already completed the first wave of attacks and left staggeringly. , simply not giving these anti-aircraft guns on the ground a chance to fire.

This first wave of bombing operations can be said to be quite perfect. Because of the pirates themselves, the attack aircraft group wasAlthough no one was damaged, and not a single hair was injured, the bombing mission was successfully completed, leaving Ye Bai aboard the Yanhuang a little stunned..
