Okay, actually, at this point, it can be seen that using the Gotha GV bomber to attack London is actually almost a joke. There is no way, the performance of the bomber itself is too limited. It is said to be a 5ookg bomb load, but if the armor and fuel tank are slightly added, the 5ookg bomb load cannot be guaranteed at all.&1t;/p>

In fact, the kg3 bomber formations that the Germans bombed London with loads cannot guarantee the quality of the bomber, but are actually quite pitiful in terms of quantity. When the kg3 was first established, there were only 36 Gotha bombers. If the bomb load capacity of each bomber was 3oo to 5oog, then the Germans were dispatched once, and the number of bombs dropped was only between 11 tons and 18 tons...&1t;/p>

Then, as the war continued, the kg3 bomber unit ushered in the pinnacle of Germany's World War I aviation power, Zeppelin-Stuck quadruple bomber, this bomber is the largest and most bomb load among German World War I aircraft. The Gotha bomber is nothing compared to this bomber! Just like the gap between a goat and an elephant.&1t;/p>

The bomber's body length is 22.1 meters, and its wings spread reaches a record-breaking 42 meters! The height is 7.2 meters! The empty weight is 7921kg. The maximum take-off weight is 11848kg. This bomber has used two motivations, one of which is 245 horsepower, and the other is 26o horsepower. The maximum is slightly lower than that of Gotha, with a maximum of 137 kilometers per hour.&1t;/p>

I have to say that this bomber has made a fundamental leap compared to Gotha! At least the maximum takeoff weight is over 10 tons, close to 12 tons, and it has the longest wings of the World War bomber. Well, it is a pleasure to congratulate. However, if you compare with the most advanced v15oo in the British, then forget it.&1t;/p>

The latter is slightly shorter than Zeppelin, less than 2o meters. The wing length is only 38 meters. The take-off air weight is about the same as Zeppelin, and it is also 8 tons, but the maximum take-off weight is as high as 3ooooo pounds, which is 14 tons! The load is 2 tons higher than Zeppelin! What is most unbearable to Germans is the motivation. The v15oo uses a 45o to 5o horsepower motor, and it is also four units. The maximum flight of this bomber is even faster than its predecessor O-4oo bomber! The maximum is 159 kilometers per hour... The Germans cried again and fainted in the toilet!&1t;/p>

So even if the kg3 bomber troops were replaced with Zeppelin Stark bombers, the bombing intensity of the UK and London was definitely not high. When the war was about to end, the kg3 bomber troops were only 43 aircraft. You really can't expect these bombers to produce a high output!&1t;/p>

Well, in history, how many bombs did the kg3 bomber troops throw at the British in the year from May 1917 to May 1918? Reality is more cruel than theoretical numbers! In history, the kg3 bomber troops carried out a total of 22 missions, and the number of bombs dropped in the UK was only 93 tons! There was no triple digit number! In previous missions, a total of 61 bombers were lost, half of which were due to weather reasons and mechanical failure of the bomber (from this number

According to the statistics, the British's interception level is not very good. An average of 1.5 tons of bombs will be lost... and with the losses of these aircraft, the German Air Force personnel lost 94 people. The British also paid a price of 28 casualties in the interception operations. (If you consider the number of crews, it seems that the exchange of Gotha bombers and British fighters is not bad? Is it true that a certain legend in the magic Thunder game that aircraft such as b25 is the best fighter?)&1t;/p>

As for the personnel and economic losses in the UK? In previous bombings, a total of 836 people died in bombings, and the property losses caused were 30,000 pounds, which seems to be a lot, but because many of them are private houses, it is useless if you only look at the military significance of the bombing.&1t;/p>

To be honest, Ruprecht looked down on the so-called spiritual shock bombing, especially for the hard bones like the British in this era. You should know that in history, the Dutch fleet has hit the estuary of the Thames River and burned the towns and turrets he encountered, but what? Didn’t the British finally press the Netherlands to the ground to rub it? I really thought that throwing a few tons of bombs would make the British feel afraid? What are you thinking? At least the tonnage must be 4 digits?&1t;/p>

Fortunately, in this plane, the prince has the K8 heavy bomber that the kg3 bomber troops do not have in history, and the number of various bombers that can be used is more than 10 times that of the kg3 bomber troops in history! And what about his own opponent? It seems that from the current situation, the British air defense force in this plane is not even as good as in history in some aspects!&1t;/p>

That's right, it's not as good as it is! This is not to say that the British are not absolutely strong enough, but because the British are not prepared. You should know that in history, before German bombers came to the British mainland in May 1917, the Zeppelin had been wandering around the British mainland for nearly two years! In the past two years, the British established a complete set of air-to-air emergency systems, not only hardware, but also software equipment. Moreover, the British also developed an early night air defense system at that time!&1t;/p>

Starting from the beach, the British observed the location of German bombers by establishing a lookout post. After that, they informed the prevention and control command via phone. If the incoming aircraft is in the daytime, they will guide the aircraft to intercept it. This system is simple and seems to have an effect, but in fact? The effect is not very good, because in history, it was difficult for a single aircraft to equip radio. In addition to eyes, searching for enemies depends more on luck... The aircraft was not fast at that time. Including the takeoff time and the time to arrive at the battlefield, the time was a bit tight. However, after a period of running-in, the effect is also acceptable.&1t;/p>

If it is interception at night, it will be much more complicated. After all, bombers are much smaller than airships. Even if they are visible by searchlights, it is difficult to track stably. The target is a little small and the degree is a bit fast! However, the British still worked hard. They formed a cordon composed of listeners and searchlights on the periphery. Inside are air obstacles suspended by balloons. Further inwards are intercepting nets made of aircraft. Although it is still difficult to kill German bombers at night, they are enough to rely on ground-to-air firepower to force German bombers to throw away bombs or give up air strikes early.&1t;/p>

If in history, after the British had trained a system of how to deal with the Zeppelin air raids two years after the war started, then in this plane, at least in the British, the British really didn't consider how to deal with the German bombing, because there had been no threat before!&1t;/p>
