1142 Air Strike 2
Four attack aircraft on the left wing attacked first. They spread their broad wings like hunting warships and birds. A torpedo weighing more than 4 kilograms is as terrifying as sharp claws. Under the sunlight, the gray-white thunder head is aimed directly at the steel dragon in the distance like a sharp spear.&1t;/p>
"At this moment, we are the dragon slayers of the new era!" Rudel said proudly.&1t;/p>
When seeing eight torpedo aircraft approaching themselves from the left and right wings at the same time, Major General Becken felt his brain blank in a short time. Imagine the scene where two teams of destroyers approached their own 5oo to 6oo meters to shoot torpedoes in a fan shape. The Major General could feel cold sweat flowing down his cheeks. This was simply terrible! It was more about luck than technology to avoid them!&1t;/p>
"We need to run faster!" Major General Becker wiped his cold sweat and said.&1t;/p>
"But our degree has reached 22 quarters and passed the standard flight." A person from the referee team next to him said.&1t;/p>
"Don't be too strict, please forgive me if you have to." Schell walked over and said. He could also see that the bet has lost so far. Even if Major General Becken relies on his luck to avoid the 8 torpedoes this time? There are 2 teams of torpedoes and 2 teams of bombers behind!&1t;/p>
Four torpedo bombers on the left wing lined up in a row, and the four planes rushed from the front left toward the huge side of the Saxon. The height was 25 meters. When the target was visually 70 meters apart, the long aircraft of the torpedo team pulled down the bomb drop handle first, and the first torpedo drew an arc in the air and shot it out. After 10 seconds, the second, third and fourth torpedoes fired alternately!&1t;/p>
"Pull up! Let's go!" The Seahawk attack aircraft, which had lost its load, jumped up a little. The pilot tried his best to pull up his operating rod. At the last few hundred meters, the planes climbed 30 to 40 meters and flew over the Saxon. The lowest one was almost against the mast of the warship. This behavior seemed more like a provocation in the eyes of the major general.&1t;/p>
Of course, the major general was not at this time. The 4 torpedoes almost blocked the Saxon route. There was a great risk of continuing to move forward or turning back. These torpedoes with a spacing of about 20 meters left behind a trail behind them, stabbing at the target like a deadly sword!&1t;/p>
"Maximum voyage, reverse steering." Accompanied by the four rudders at the stern of the ship, the huge monster with a displacement of more than 30,000 tons began to turn quickly to the right, the hull and the sea water collided violently, and a wave hit the deck of the ship. Because the warship turned too fast, the entire hull tilted about 10 degrees to the right. Under the huge resistance of the sea water, the warship that had originally reached 23 knots had 21.5 knots left after the steering was completed.&1t;/p>
Relying on extreme maneuvers and luck, all four torpedoes attacked in the first wave were lost, and the closest one passed 15 meters at the stern of the ship, which made the seahawks involved in the air strike regret. Then what? Before Major General Becker could take a breath, the Saxon, who turned to complete, directly exposed its slender hull to the attack range of another team of torpedoes!&1t;/p>
When the other four torpedoes appeared in the field of view, it was less than half a minute before the Saxon dodged the last torpedo, and the warship was still tilted. Major General Becken, who was already a little busy, hurriedly ordered the warship to dodge to the left again. At this time, the huge warship was like an athlete who ran too fast and could not stop. When he struggled to adjust the direction and posture, at a distance of about 60 meters, there were four torpedoes shot out in a fan shape!&1t;/p>
And this time, Major General Becken was completely desperate. He watched the white lines that predicted the disaster extending in the sea. He only knew that this time he really couldn't dodge all of them, and the situation was indeed the case. Two torpedoes successfully hit the left string of the Saxon, hitting the part of the ship, and the other hitting the No. 1 turret.&1t;/p>
"The ship was hit and was seriously damaged, with 80 tons of water inlet. The starboard side was temporarily inclined 7 degrees. The lower part of the turret No. 1 in hull, the water inlet was 40 tons, and the inclination angle increased to 10 degrees. Is it necessary to pay attention to the water balance?" The referee team asked after verifying the hit.&1t;/p>
The ship is a light armored belt, and the TDS thickness is smaller and it is naturally more water inflow after being hit. The TDS part of the No. 1 turret is larger and the lightning-proof armor has also increased a lot, so it is inevitable that there will be less water inflow. Of course, this is a simulated British battleship. If the Saxony was hit with a torpedo with a charge of only 9 okg in actual combat, the water inflow is certain, but it will definitely not be so much.&1t;/p>
"Not needed for the time being." Becken was still relatively clear at this time. The battleship had just begun to enter the water, and the warship had just entered a thousand tons. If the water was poured in the right side, the entire warship would have a serious tilt. The problem was even greater. Moreover, the opponent hit the starboard side this time. According to their attack habits, if he hit 2 on the left string, he would not need to pour water...&1t;/p>
"Release the smoke immediately." After looking at the second wave of attack aircraft in the distance, Lieutenant General Schell finally couldn't stand it anymore. After all, Becken was also his old subordinate. When he was still the captain of the battleship, he was the follower. So he gave a correct suggestion.&1t;/p>
"Yes, open all the cigarette cans and release smoke!" Major General Becken said hurriedly after Lieutenant General Schell reminded him. After a while, thick smoke was sprayed out from the Saxony and quickly covered the hull. The Seahawk attack aircraft in the air had no chance to attack. But at the same time, due to the smoke screen, Saxony could not leave the range covered by the smoke screen. You must know that the smoke screen could not run wildly with the warship at a distance of 20 kilograms. That was no longer called smoke, it was called the Black Mountain Old Demon...&1t;/p>
"Have you hit 2 torpedoes? Although it is not very high from the hit rate, it is really good." At this time, William II, who was far away on the Bavaria, said after listening to the battle report.&1t;/p>
That's true. So far, a total of 12 torpedoes have been thrown, hitting 2. If you just drive from the shooting range, the hit rate is not high. You know, this is shooting torpedoes at a distance of 60 meters at a distance of almost no interference. But in fact, if you don't have this efficiency on the battlefield, then hit rate is still very valuable. As for the underwater protection of British battleships, if the 29okg-loaded torpedo hits the same side and is in the position of the ship, it will at least be the result of withdrawing from the battle. If you are not lucky, it is possible to sink directly! After all, the 18okg-bite pyrolic explosive is much heavier than the torpedo that exploded in the Dabang!&1t;/p>
