The ten ¡®Wuyue-class¡¯ aircraft carriers of the Chinese Navy¡¯s Second Fleet can each carry more than 90 fighters! Each of the 'island-class' heavy aircraft carriers can carry more than 120 fighters. In addition, the aircraft carrier can take off and land fighters at the same time, making the 'island-class' aircraft carrier more efficient in dispatching fighters. From the perspective of comprehensive combat power, the combat power of the 'Island Class' aircraft carrier is about twice that of the 'Wuyue Class' aircraft carrier! Of course, the cost of the 'Island Class' aircraft carrier is almost twice that of the 'Wuyue Class' aircraft carrier!
At 5:30 in the morning on May 31, the aircraft carriers of the Chinese Navy began to take off fighter planes. Half an hour later, the fleet of aircraft began to fly eastward. The fleet that took off this time included all the fighters on the ten aircraft carriers of the Chinese Navy's Second Fleet and the four aircraft carriers of the First Fleet! The battleship formation has reported the general location of the German fleet. Then, the Chinese navy has no reason to retain its strength. Only by destroying all the opponent's aircraft carriers can it win this time!
In the sky above the fleet, except for the necessary air defense fighters left behind, all the other fighters have already set off! These fourteen aircraft carriers of the Chinese Navy carry a total of more than 1,400 fighter jets, and the number of fighter jets is more than 500! Among them, ten groups of fighter jets served as fleet air defense, and the remaining fighter jets escorted the departing H9C ¡®Cang Hu¡¯ dive bombers and H9D ¡®Seagull¡¯ fish attack aircraft!
The Chinese Navy and the German Navy dispatched fighter jets almost at the same time, and both targeted the enemy's aircraft carrier fleet. only. The Chinese navy has certain advantages. Judging from the number of carrier-based aircraft. The 14 aircraft carriers of the Chinese Navy carry nearly 300 more carrier-based aircraft than the 15 aircraft carriers of the German Navy. This gives the Chinese Navy stronger attack power and air defense capabilities! In addition, the Chinese Navy's battleship formation still has the upper hand at this time, having sunk three battleships of the German Navy. The remaining three super battleships are also in danger under the siege of the Chinese Navy's battleship formation! The most important point is that when the Chinese Navy's battleship formation attacked the German Navy's battleship formation, the fleet's light cruisers and destroyers had discovered the location of the German Navy's aircraft carrier battle group during the search process. The German Navy can only roughly infer the location of the Chinese fleet's aircraft carrier battle group. This undoubtedly gives the Chinese Navy more time to prepare! In fact, this is indeed the case. After the carrier-based aircraft took off, the 14 aircraft carrier battle groups of the Chinese Navy began to disperse. Although if all aircraft carrier battle groups stay together, the defense will be stronger. But it is also more vulnerable to enemy attacks. Even if one or two or even several aircraft carrier battle groups are lost in this naval battle, as long as the main force of the German Navy can be eliminated, the final victory will still belong to the Chinese Navy!
The attack aircraft group dispatched by the Chinese Navy, guided by the navy's warships, went directly to the location of the German Navy's aircraft carrier battle group. At this time, the distance between the two sides was less than two hundred kilometers, with the speed of the H9C'Canghu' dive bomber and the H9D'Seagull' fish attack aircraft. It only takes more than half an hour!
At 6:15 in the morning, the sky is getting darker. Twenty-four F11B ¡®Vulture¡¯ fighter jets from a fighter group that came out to escort the bomber unit discovered the German carrier-based aircraft unit. The densely packed fighter jets almost filled the entire sky!
The captain of the fighter group immediately made contact with the rear group. The fighter force escorting the fleet was immediately divided into half, speeding up to intercept the German carrier-based aircraft force. The Chinese Navy's bomber force immediately turned to avoid the German Navy's carrier-based aircraft force!
At 6:18, the battle officially begins! More than 140 F11B 'Vulture' fighter jets emerged from the clouds and launched a fierce attack on the German Navy's carrier-based aircraft force! Their first target of attack is the German Navy's fighter force! Although the number of escort fighters of the German Navy is twice that of the Chinese Navy, the performance of both sides is completely on the same level! The fighter jets suddenly swooped down from high altitude and opened fire one after another! One after another, German fighter jets emitted black smoke and fell towards the sea. In this wave of attacks alone, dozens of German Navy escort fighter jets were shot down. Afterwards, the two sides started a fight. However, in terms of climb, maneuverability and firepower, the German Navy's Hurricane 4 fighter jets are no match for the Chinese Navy's F11B 'Vulture' fighter jets. Just as the senior officials of the German Navy were worried, the Hurricane 4 fighter jets were unable to withstand the attack of the Chinese Navy¡¯s F11B ¡®Vulture¡¯ fighter jets! If they were equipped with the most advanced Hurricane 5 fighter jets, they might still be able to compete. But now? The German fighter jets that are constantly being shot down are the best proof!
The German Navy's bomber force was immediately dispersed. They were even more vulnerable to the Chinese Navy's fighter jets! The Chinese Navy¡¯s fighter jets were not immediately??We launched an attack on these bombers, but planned to disperse the German Navy's fighter jets and then massacre these fighter jets! Anyway, they are still far away from the main fleet of the Chinese Navy, and they still have enough time! Besides, more than two hundred fighter jets are on alert over the main fleet of the Chinese Navy, waiting for these German bombers to come obediently!
This air battle was very easy for the Chinese Navy¡¯s fighter force, which shot down more than 150 German fighter jets at the cost of losing less than twenty! The remaining German fighter jets also fled in all directions, and were no longer able to provide protection for the bomber force! Facts have proved that it is very difficult for a bomber group without fighter escort to escape the enemy's escort fighter jets!
After the attack aircraft group encountered the local aircraft group, the main force of the fleet immediately made adjustments. Except for a few air defense fighters left behind, all the rest of the fighters were sent out, preparing to expand the defense range!
At 6:35, the anti-aircraft fighters encountered the bombers of the German fleet. Although there were more than 700 bombers, they were unable to break through the interception of the Chinese Navy's air defense fighters! These fighter jets swooped down from a high altitude and fired fiercely from the aircraft's machine guns. Suddenly, the German bomber was beaten until it was covered in smoke and fell into the sea! Although the number of more than 700 bombers is large, under the attack of the Chinese Navy's fighter jets, they can only flee for their lives, and they are simply unable to organize a powerful attack on the Chinese Navy's fleet!
In the end, of the more than 700 bombers dispatched by the German Navy, less than 100 were intercepted by the Chinese Navy's fighter jets and launched an attack on the Chinese Navy's aircraft carrier. However, they first have to get through the anti-aircraft firepower of the Chinese Navy's fleet! Before the German Navy's bombers arrived, the various aircraft carrier battle groups of the Chinese Navy had already entered the air defense formation! The air defense warships firmly guard the aircraft carrier in the center, and the air defense firepower composed of large air defense cruisers, heavy cruisers, destroyers and frigates is airtight. The German Navy's fighter jets launched an attack, but were first shot down by these anti-aircraft firepower! In the end, of the hundreds of bombers, less than one-third successfully dropped bombs, and the result they achieved was severely damaging one aircraft carrier of the Chinese Navy, and only slightly damaging two other aircraft carriers! This loss is completely negligible to the Chinese Navy!
When the German Navy¡¯s carrier-based aircraft forces attempted to attack the Chinese Navy¡¯s aircraft carrier fleet, the Chinese Navy¡¯s carrier-based aircraft forces also began to attack the German Navy¡¯s aircraft carrier fleet! With the guidance of naval warships, the Chinese Navy's carrier-based aircraft units accurately found the location of the German fleet!
More than a hundred fighter jets serving as escort missions were the first to attack, and they strangled the German Navy's anti-aircraft fighters. With their performance advantages, the Chinese Navy's fighter jets held back the German Navy's air defense fighters, preventing them from launching an attack on the Chinese Navy's bomber force! Although the German Hurricane 4 fighter jets are not as good as the Chinese Navy's fighter jets, there is no problem in dealing with the slow bombers!
Although the commander of the German Navy repeatedly ordered these anti-aircraft fighters to rely on the Chinese Navy's fighter jets, they would prioritize attacking the Chinese Navy's dive bombers and fish attack aircraft. However, this requires them to have this ability!
At 6:32, the Chinese Navy¡¯s carrier-based aircraft launched an attack on the German Navy¡¯s aircraft carrier fleet! More than 400 dive bombers and more than 400 fish attack aircraft, in squadrons, launched attacks on large warships on the sea. Not only are aircraft carriers their main attack targets, but large air defense warships are also priority targets. The outstanding performance of the Chinese Navy's large anti-aircraft warships attracted the attention of the German Navy. However, it was too late to redesign the large anti-aircraft warships. They could only install more anti-aircraft firepower on the heavy cruisers to strengthen the fleet's air defense capabilities. ! In fact, this kind of warship has big loopholes, and this gives the Chinese Navy's carrier-based aircraft unit an excellent opportunity!
Bombers one after another began to dive and drop bombs. Some bombers were unlucky and were shot down before they dropped bombs, but more bombers successfully dropped aviation armor-piercing bombs and then evacuated!
? German Navy battleships began to be hit, caught fire, and then sank! Under the attack of hundreds of bombers and fish attack aircraft of the Chinese Navy, the German Navy suffered heavy losses! The aircraft carriers that were the main targets of the attack were sunk one after another! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
