Chapter 2254: The Final Battle One

"Brothers, the dinner is already on the table, now it's up to us!" After finding the target, the Tiger Shark Squadron quickly flew towards the target, and thus, a land-based air force battle by the Norwegian Air Force kicked off!

"It's a German bomber!" The lookout post on the mast immediately discovered the German bomber group approaching from the northeast, and the British fleet had nothing to do with these killers from the air!

"Order, the fleet will distance itself, and the light cruisers and destroyers will prepare for air defense operations." At this time, Thomas can only give a symbolic combat order. The real air defense effect depends on luck!

Half of the 24 K8 bombers in Tiger Shark Squadron are bombers and the other half are torpedo planes. The bomber carries two 500KG bombs, while the torpedo plane carries one 750KG torpedo or two 450KG torpedoes. ≮Yes, a total of 24 500KG bombs and a dozen torpedoes left the Thomas fleet with the first drop of blood on the way to escape!

"Lower the altitude! Let me drop to 200 meters! Speed ​​and sail! Don't be afraid of the British anti-aircraft guns, they have been shot!" In the cockpit of the K8 bomber, the captain kept saying that bombers attacking in this era The hit rate of fast-moving targets is very low, so the bombing method used by the Germans is a group of 4 bombers, passing by the side of the battleship, and then "covering" the target with dense bombs in a neat formation.

This requires a formation of bombers to be as dense as possible, and at the same time, the lead plane must have a very high quality. After all, he is the one who sent the signal to drop the bomb. The accuracy of the lead plane's first bomb directly determines the accuracy of subsequent bombs... ... Therefore, the lead plane responsible for the first wave of attack boldly lowered the height to 200 meters, and then dropped to 80 kilometers per slope at 150 meters Y degree! And try to keep the heading.

However, even though the German Air Force has done a lot of preparations, facing the high-flying and agile battlecruisers, the bombing effect of the K8 bomber is still not good! The first target of the Germans was the battlecruiser Indomitable. The lead plane dropped the first set of bombs at a distance of 200 meters from the Indomitable. However, this unsuccessful attack doomed the follow-up attacks to be bad. , 8 rounds of 500KG bombs are of no use other than blasting water columns.

However, the attack effect of the second formation was not wrong. Four K8 bombers flew over at a height of less than 100 meters from the sea surface, and the lead plane almost dropped the bomb close to the mast of the Indomitable!

"I can clearly see the details of this war-torn battleship, the turrets deployed in a quadrangular shape, the bullet marks of the merchants, the destroyed cabins, and even the people running on it. They fired at us with the only remaining machine guns. , I could feel that we were hit, sparks popped out of the fuselage, and the fuselage shook slightly, but no matter what, we finally threw the bomb down. One of the bombs landed accurately in the middle of the Indomitable's hull, We hit ten rings!" The lead pilot of the second formation after the war recalled the ridicule at that time.

"The power of the 500KG semi-armor-piercing bomb is very powerful. We hit the chimney of the Indomitable. I can clearly see that the bomb penetrated into the hull easily. Then when we left, the battleship Indomitable flashed with flames, accompanied by With a loud noise, the entire chimney and the large upper deck were annoyed by the violent explosion, flames and black smoke poured out from the hull, and the impact of the explosion could be felt even on the plane. One bomb, and then my crew hit a second!"

The position of the second bomb was the bow of the Indomitable. The powerful bomb almost tore off the already incomplete bow of the battleship from the hull = the long and slender bow of the cruiser seemed to be ruthlessly pressed by a pair of big hands Enter the water and then crush it!

After the two waves of bombing, it was the attack of the torpedo planes.

It is also a group of 4, and in the absence of interference, the attack of the torpedo plane is obviously much more accurate than the horizontal bombing of the heavy bomber! After all, throwing a bomb is a three-dimensional movement, and after the torpedo is thrown into the water, it is a planar movement...  

Compared with two rounds of 8 planes with 16 bombs and only 2 shots, the German bombers achieved a pretty good record in the first wave of attacks! The 4 bombers carried 8 rounds of 450KG torpedoes in a fan shape, gathered about 100 meters from each other, and quickly slashed at the opponent like a machete!

"Start the second round of attack at an interval of 10 seconds after the first round of attack!" Before launching the attack, the lead plane repeated the previous order again. Large bombers can carry multiple torpedoes. In the previous experiment, the Germans found a The probability of a torpedo plane dropping two torpedoes in one attack is higher than that of two smaller planes striking separately. Therefore, this time, the German Air Force deliberately let some large bombers carry 2 smaller torpedoes to participate in the battle to verify whether such a tactic is available in actual combat.

But the actual situation is not wrong! Although the 8 torpedoes were dropped in two waves, the speed of the torpedoes was relatively slow after all, so the 8 torpedoes still formed a complete and dense attack fan] However, the agile battlecruiser struggled to dodge 5 rounds. After the torpedo, it was finally hit with 3 torpedoes of 450KG, but it was deadly enough for the first generation of British battlecruisers!

After the torpedoes hit, the water column caused by the explosion rose one after another beside this poor battleship, violently bursting into pieces, and the whole hull plate was torn off as a whole, and even two torpedoes that hit relatively close distances successfully left behind After going down a 40-meter-long rift, I Lian's Indomitable is like being disemboweled!

"We seem to have completed the mission, and we can leave the precious ammunition to other warships." Tiger Shark Squadron Leader said with satisfaction looking at his first battle result. However, just as he was about to continue attacking other warships, a telegram was sent before his eyes.

"Are you kidding? Let's find the British Aircraft Carrier Squad? Isn't there another fleet? If we stay in this battle, we can do better?" A subordinate said a little puzzled.

"Maybe there are other considerations above. Of course, this is not what we need to know. We just need to know that it is our future king who gave the order, and he has never let us down. That's fine." Tiger Shark Squadron belongs to Bavaria , and with the rising reputation of Crown Prince Ruprecht, the people of Bavaria respect even more, and they will carry out the Crown Prince's orders even if they are a little unreasonable. As for the purpose of forwarding this telegram, of course, it is not to let the Air Force beat Thomas too badly. After all, Earl Spey only has 3 to 4 kills in his hands now!
