In fact, at this point, Mrs. Lex's strength was fully revealed. Although the lack of a steam catapult made Mrs. Lex's combat mode very different from that of Lexington, this is not to say that Mrs. Lex did not have a catapult. Mrs. Lex used hydraulic catapults, which was the mainstream catapult before the emergence of steam catapults. Hydraulic catapults used the incompressible characteristics of liquid to eject carrier-based aircraft, and its disadvantages were also brought by hydraulic itself. Later, the hydraulic catapults in the era of jet aircraft quickly withdrew from the stage of history, and the one that replaced it was steam catapults. Lexington used steam catapults and Mrs. Lex used hydraulic catapults. Hydraulic catapults were replaced by steam catapults in history, but in this world, hydraulic catapults were the mainstream of aircraft carrier catapults.

The main reason for the replacement of hydraulic catapults in history is that the weight of carrier-based aircraft is getting bigger and bigger with the arrival of the jet era. The volume of hydraulic catapults against carrier-based aircraft with increasingly larger weight is getting bigger and bigger, and the structure is becoming more and more complicated. The result is that the efficiency of hydraulic catapults has dropped sharply. This is the fundamental reason why hydraulic catapults were replaced by steam catapults in history. However, this reason is not a big problem in this world, because the weight of carrier-based aircraft of most aircraft carriers is relatively not that large, and hydraulic catapults are enough for this. In addition, some aircraft carriers do not have catapults at all. The catapults of some aircraft carriers are quite alternative. Of course, for a presence like Mrs. Lex, it is not that she does not want to use steam catapults, but that she cannot use them.

Mrs. Lex's catapult was not hydraulic but a flywheel catapult. The principle of the flywheel catapult was to use the flywheel rotation to drive the cable on the wheel shaft and then eject the carrier-based aircraft. This catapult did not last long in history. In this world, Mrs. Lex replaced the catapult instead of the more important carrier-based aircraft for the first time. It can be seen how dissatisfied with the catapult. The main reason is that the high-speed rotation of the flywheel seriously affected the stability of the aircraft carrier at sea. Mrs. Lex was very envious of Lexington's steam catapult, but she could not use it.

The energy consumed by Mrs. Lex's hydraulic catapult can make steam or other things, but in general, in order not to affect the speed, the energy used by Mrs. Lex's hydraulic catapult is not steam, which makes Mrs. Lex not lose speed like Lexington when taking off and landing a carrier-based aircraft. However, because it is not an oblique flight deck, Mrs. Lex can only take off or land a carrier-based aircraft, which is much worse than Lexington.

In fact, although they are all aircraft carriers among the SS-class historical warships, there is actually a big difference between the combat power of Mrs. Lex and Lexington. In other words, Mrs. Lex's combat power is still much worse than Lexington. After all, in history, Mrs. Lex abandoned the ship and sank because she did not control the fire. Lexington was a Essex-class aircraft carrier in service until the 1990s. Due to these reasons, Mrs. Lex appeared in this world much later than Lexington, which made it normal for Mrs. Lex to be inferior to Lexington in strength.

However, Fatty Gao was very curious about this at that time, because these two aircraft carriers appeared at the same time, which seemed very funny to Fatty Gao. In history, it was to commemorate Lexington, which sank in the Coral Sea, that Essex-class aircraft carrier No. 8 was named Lexington. It can be said that in history, there was no Essex-class aircraft carrier No. 8, which was behind the sinking of Mrs. Lex, would not be named Lexington. This world is better. These two aircraft carriers appeared at the same time, which was extremely incredible to Fatty Gao. However, this is Fatty Gao who has not been in this world for a long time. Now Fatty Gao is not so shocked. After all, the two Royal Oak and the How can they become his warships in history, and these things are acceptable.

It can be seen that Fatty Gao's retreat was relatively easy, otherwise he would not have the chance to make him think randomly. However, when he was about to arrive at the island, it unexpectedly appeared. The sea monster that had been coming out for a long time finally appeared. This sea monster did not appear in its subordinate monster group, but appeared not far from the sea monster that was entangled with the four Iowa sisters. The four Iowa sisters immediately felt that the sea monster was stronger than that of today.

The entangled sea monster is stronger. Because there are not many subordinate monsters nearby when this sea monster appears, the commanders of the fleet immediately reached a consensus to eliminate the monsters currently fighting as much as possible. However, if the powerful monster wants to get close to this newly emerging sea monster, don’t intercept it. At the same time, the four sisters of Iowa retreat immediately, and Lexington will not provide air support. The fleet must maintain a distance from the two sea monsters. It can be said that the battle has changed here.

This sea monster appears in this position and wants to deal with the sea monster first instead of fighting the fleet. In this case, the fleet will never take the initiative to fight against this newly emerging sea monster that is obviously much stronger than the previous sea monsters. Instead, watch the battle between the two sea monsters not far away. This time, the focus is. However, in order to prevent the two sea monsters from being difficult to deal with after the battle ends, what is needed now is to reduce the number of monsters subordinate to the sea monsters as much as possible.

It can be said that the fleet is playing with fire, but at this stage, it can only play with fire like this. At the same time, fighting with two powerful sea monsters does not have the capital to fight. Now, when the important support of the two major forces of Iron Blood and Glory is not in place, it can be said that the battle plan needs to be adjusted at the beginning. The battle between sea monsters is very uncertain. There are sea monsters that will never surrender to the end of the battle. However, in most cases, the confrontation between sea monsters is short and rapid. The fleet must now be prepared for battle. In this case, the Queen suggested that Veneto should be fast.
