Chapter 70: Naval Battle in South Korea
Chapter 70: Naval Battle in South Korea
On the vast sea, the Diaoyu Islands in northeastern Taiwan have now become the key point of war between China, the United States and Japan. Here, four Chinese aircraft carrier battle groups have gathered, and the seven aircraft carrier battle groups are ready to go.
In the comparison between military salutes and weapons between the two sides, the Chinese Empire has a disadvantage in number, but it has an advantage in weapons.
The Chinese Empire has an advanced Seahawk carrier-based fighter bomber combination. This new type of fighter has a big feature, that is, their take-off distance and body size.
This new type of fighter is specifically for aircraft carriers. It has metal structures all over the body, with propellers in front and propellers on both sides of the wings, which increases power.
The size of the Seahawk fighter is one-third smaller than that of the J-2. It is mainly equipped with three 12.7mm machine guns and four suspended rockets. These weapons are twice as big as daily carrier-based aircraft. Although the carrier-based aircraft of Japan and the United States also have metal structures, in order to reduce the takeoff weight, they only have this 12.7mm machine gun, and only two rockets.
In terms of bombers, since it was an aircraft carrier, the bombers on both sides have also been greatly reduced. The load capacity of medium-sized bombers on land is about ten tons, but the aircraft carrier is only four or five tons, and the two sides are not much different in terms of bombers.
In terms of protection, each aircraft carrier formation in the Chinese Empire has two battleships, five large cruisers, ten fast-response cruisers, and twenty destroyers used for air defense and anti-submarine mine sweeping.
On the other hand, the battleships were removed and adapted into three large cruisers, four fast-response cruisers, and ten destroyers, which means that their warships were only one-half of that of the Chinese Empire.
In addition, the Chinese Empire had a light aircraft carrier of 20,000 to 30,000 tons, and a Chengdu carrier, carrying fifteen fighter jets and twenty bombers.
Among the seven aircraft carriers per day, three are light aircraft carriers, namely the Koga, Nagasaki and Hokkaido aircraft carriers.
The Chinese Empire's medium-sized aircraft carriers had a displacement of 35,000 to 50,000 tons. The two were the USS Beiping and Nanjing aircraft carriers, with 60 carrier-based aircraft aircraft and 30 bombers.
And four aircraft carriers of the United States and Japan are the same.
In the end, the Chinese Empire had a heavy aircraft carrier, the China Shenlong. The aircraft carrier had a displacement of 90,000 tons. It was the largest surface ship in the world. Although its speed was slow, its powerful load capacity shocked all countries.
The China Shenlong aircraft carrier carries 150 fighter jets and 60 bombers, equipped with sixteen submarines, three battleships, five large cruisers, fifteen fast-response cruisers and thirty destroyers. It is the most powerful aircraft carrier among the major aircraft carrier formations in China and the world with the largest number of aircraft carriers.
In addition, there are seventeen armed helicopters on the Huaxia Shenlong, which are used for maritime rescue. The helicopters are obviously very fragile in the opponent's ship-based air defense firepower.
Four aircraft carrier formations are deployed in Ryukyu and Liaodong, Taiwan. The north is the Yellow Sea, which is a medium-sized aircraft carrier, Peking. Fortunately, the Chinese Shenlong and Chengdu are deployed in Ryukyu. The four aircraft carrier formations are corresponding to the northern Yellow Sea and the South Korean waters, Japan's two light aircraft carriers, the Kaga and Nagasaki; three medium-sized aircraft carriers and one light aircraft carrier are deployed in the north of Baodao; a Los Angeles-class medium-sized aircraft carrier in the United States is deployed in Ryukyu, which are the three major war zones on the sea.
At this time, the Beijing had already brought the aircraft carrier formation to the South Korean waters. According to the radar, the Japanese aircraft carrier formation cluster was 170 nautical miles away.
"Order the fighter jets to take off!" The war has come. China and Japan have vigorously developed aircraft carriers in recent years in order to sink each other's aircraft carriers.
At the same time, the Japanese fleet also discovered the Beijing aircraft carrier formation, and cruiser frigates gathered in front of the aircraft carrier to unfold in a fan shape, and all anti-aircraft guns were aimed at the sky.
Thirty fighter jets from two Japanese aircraft carriers also took off to prepare for combat.
This is an air battle over the sea. Although the air force is not strong enough, it is the first time that the aircraft carrier has carried out a sea-surface air battle since its debut. It seems that every advanced weapon has been tested in East Asia, which is also the result of the competition between China and Japan.
The thirty Japanese fighter jets were all zero-type fighter jets designed by Japan based on American fighter jets. Of course, you should not be confused by this name. Although it is also called Zero, it is not the same level as the Zero-type in later generations in Japan at the end of World War II.
He is still an F-21, and his combat capability is a little worse than that of the Seahawk, the Thunder and the J-2.
However, it is also one of the more advanced carrier-based aircraft in the world today.
"I found the opponent's target, which was fifteen degrees left." Sixty Chinese carrier-based aircraft had taken off, and the radar was fully opened. Soon, they searched for the Japanese fighter jets. The aviation formation immediately climbed and raised to an altitude of 8,000 meters to prevent the opponent's radar from scanning.
"Didi..." Just three minutes later, a warning sound came from the radar reconnaissance plane.
Unexpectedly, the Japanese plane actually judged that their way of travel had also taken off to such an altitude.
"The Japanese are very smart! But I think they can't fight us at such an altitude!" As the commander of the flight brigade, Zhu Shangwen knew that it was not suitable for combat with fighter jets at such a high altitude, and as he expected, the Japanese fighter jets on the radar began to fly down one after another.
"Roar over..." In this case, the Japanese army's choice was not wrong. Compared with the Chinese Empire, the Japanese planes had many shortcomings, because air combat at such high altitudes had a great impact on the performance of Japanese fighters, so they had to start reducing their flight altitude.
The Japanese army finally stayed at a height of more than 2,000 meters on the sea surface, and then scattered to avoid the dive attack of the Chinese Empire fighter jets. Their dispersed dodge was very effective. They were at a disadvantage in quantity and were at a disadvantage in performance and weapons, so they had to launch guerrilla tactics in the air.
Two Chinese Empire Seahawk fighters were chasing a Japanese carrier-based aircraft, but the pilot of this Japanese carrier-based aircraft was quite good and kept rolling and dodging in the air.
"He wants to turn around! 0817, immediately detour from the left." The two Chinese fighter jets, one is 0816 and the other is 0817. The pilot of the 0816 fighter jet saw that the Japanese fighter jet was about to climb and knew that the other party wanted to turn around to fight, so he immediately notified the pilot of the 0817 fighter jet that there is no single-on-one battle on this battlefield, and that there are only those who do nothing to do for victory.
The Japanese fighter jet could not see the action of the 0817 fighter jet, so they climbed up and then turned around and began to shoot violently at the 0816.
0816 also counterattacked. The two fighter jets intersected and many bullet holes appeared on each other's fuselages, and the rockets fired by both sides fell head-on into the sea.
"TuTuTuTuTuTu..." After the interlacing, the two fighters turned around again and then started fighting again, but neither of them suffered fatal damage. Just as the Japanese fighter jets were about to launch a charge again, a silver-white Seahawk fighter jet suddenly flew from his side, and the Chinese fighter jets in front also launched an attack.
“Tututu…”
"Bang bang bang..." The sound of bullets and rocket launchers was fired. The Japanese pilot sitting in the cockpit seemed to be able to hear clearly. He wanted to avoid it, but before he could react, the plane had already trembled, and then he no longer felt it, and the fighter plane turned into a ball of flame.
In other directions, the battle between Chinese and Japanese fighter jets continues, most of which are Chinese fighter jets chasing Japanese fighter jets, and Japanese fighter jets are shot down from time to time.
After half an hour of air combat, the Chinese Empire lost twelve fighter jets, thirty Japanese fighter jets lost 23, and the rest of the Japanese fighter jets fled to the Japanese aircraft carrier formation in a panic.
At this time, the fleets of the two sides were less than an hour apart, and they could vaguely see each other's chimneys, especially the huge engines of the aircraft carrier.
The Beijing escort formation also began to arrange its formation, with battleships walking ahead, and cruisers and frigates ready for combat.
Half an hour later, the warships on both sides could see each other's outlines, and the Japanese heavy cruisers also began to raise the muzzles of the main gun.
"Fire the gun!" But the first one was the Chinese fleet. The huge shells of the 360-mm main guns of the two battleships of the Chinese North Sea Fleet were bombarded first.
"Boom..." Sixteen shells were like falling meteors, four of which hit a heavy cruiser in front of the Japanese army. The armor of the Japanese cruiser was directly broken, and a large amount of sea water poured in.
However, at this time, the Japanese warships also fired fire, and the main guns of several cruisers also launched a series of strikes on the battleships. The bow of the battleship No. 1 in Beijing was hit, the front main gun was broken and exploded, and the entire battleship began to tilt slightly.
"Order all fighter bombers to take off, break through the Japanese escort cluster, and sank their aircraft carriers for me." Looking at the battleships between each other on the sea, the commander of the USS Beijing aircraft carrier ordered the fighter bombers to take off. After all, this was not a naval battle during World War I, but a war dominated by modern aircraft carriers.
"Woo buzz..." The fighter planes took off one by one, like an eagle finding its prey, quickly approaching the Japanese warship cluster.
"Bang bang bang..." The Japanese warships' air defense firepower suddenly opened, as if they could see the same bullet light forming a firepower net in the sky, but this kind of air defense shooting could not defend against large space areas on the sea surface.
“Tututu…”
"Swoosh swish swish swish..." After the casualties of two fighter jets, the Chinese Empire fleet passed through the opponent's defensive fleet and headed towards the two Japanese aircraft carriers.
Above the two Japanese aircraft carriers, more than a dozen Japanese remnants of fighter jets flew out again to fight more than forty Chinese fighter jets.
"TuTuTuTuTuTu..." The air combat was extremely fierce. Chinese fighters not only had to face the enemy planes in the sky, but also needed to avoid the air defense firepower below. However, the Japanese fighter planes were soon wiped out, and China once again suffered the casualties of thirteen fighters, but they completely controlled the air supremacy.
"Woo buzz..." After the fighter won the victory, he immediately began to attack the air defense firepower on the aircraft carrier. Although it was extremely dangerous, it was exactly what they had to do now, because their bombers were about to arrive and the air defense firepower of the opponent's aircraft carrier must be solved when the bombers arrived.
"Baga! The naval warships are sent back to guard! The Chinese bomber cluster is coming!" The Japanese fleet commander knew that the Chinese fighter planes risked their lives to dive and attack air defense firepower in order to make subsequent bombers safer. At the same time, if the opponent's bombers arrive, they will have a catastrophe, so they hurriedly ordered the warships in front to return, but this also made the demise of the Japanese fleet more advanced.
