Chapter 517: Hanging
The two senior sisters of Otowa are both veterans of flying fighter jets, and now it is a matter of course to change to a sea plane, and it is easy to get started in just one day.
And the time has finally come to the day when the naval battle project begins.
As before, the opening of the naval battle project was quite low-key. Otowa and his entourage boarded the ship prepared by the organizers at the harbor and waited for the organizers' orders.
In order to prevent everyone from forming small groups again, the time and location of each ship entering the sea area are random.
I don't know if it's good luck or bad luck, but it didn't take long for Otowa and the others to be named by the organizers and receive an order to enter the sea immediately.
The battleship's boilers were running at full speed, and the 100,000-horsepower turbines pushed the propellers to rotate, which soon accelerated the ship's speed to more than 30 knots.
The maneuverability of the Cleveland-class light cruisers is still good, acceleration and deceleration are very fast, and the maximum speed is also 32 knots.
The surface of the sea was cut in two by the streamlined bow of the ship, and a lot of the sea water that had been knocked open fell on the deck, wetting the turret at the bow.
"It's really ominous. ”
Looking at the fog that was gradually rising around him, Otowa couldn't help but frown.
She hadn't been able to feel the anomaly of the sea from a distance, but when she entered it herself, everything seemed to change, and Otowa's instincts kept reminding her that it was dangerous.
"Our navigation system is out of order. ”
Arisha, as an excellent navigator, immediately noticed the anomaly of the instrument in front of him.
The compass suddenly lost its effect, and it spun around, not knowing exactly where it was pointing.
"It seems that the magnetic field here is extremely chaotic. Arisa said with some concern.
Needless to say, this must be the ghost of the organizers again, and God knows what black technology they used to change the environment here.
"We have entered the operational sea zone and are preparing to release the reconnaissance aircraft. ”
After Otowa finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the gate of the bridge.
"Are you serious?"
Arisa hesitated for a moment, but finally spoke.
Now that the sun has been obscured by clouds and fog, the compass has lost its effect, and it is easy to get lost in the sea if you rush to attack.
"Don't worry, we won't be far from the ship. Otowa said confidently.
Visibility in this area is not bad, about 10km, and it is nowhere near the terrifying fog that Otowa had when he last grabbed the T-64.
As long as you don't exceed this distance, you shouldn't get lost in the sea.
……
"I'll leave it to you later. ”
"Uh-huh, I'll do my best!"
It's an acquaintance who attacked with the same sound feather.,Kitajima Koyuki.。
In her three years at school, she not only learned nursing and cooking, but in order to have another way out in the future, Xiaoxue also took the subject of observer.
The catapult located in the stern of the ship slowly turned, and the water plane quickly pointed to the surface of the sea along with the track.
"Are you ready?"
"Uh-huh!" Xiaoxue nodded a little nervously.
"Oh, then. ”
With that, Otowa pushed down the lever that controlled the throttle valve.
A huge amount of jet fuel poured into the engine, and the 450-horsepower Pratt-Whitney engine roared with it.
The crew of the ship also cooperated very well to activate the catapult, and under the huge thrust, the kingfisher where Otowa was located was directly thrown out.
In terms of power alone, the catapults of these WWII cruisers were far worse than those of later generations, but fortunately, the piston sailors did not need much speed to take off.
The fighter quickly stabilized, and then began to climb slowly under the control of Otowa.
After Otowa, three other water planes of the same type were also catapulted into the sky one by one, and it didn't take long to catch up with the kingfisher where Otowa was.
"The weather was terrible. ”
This is probably the worst environment Otowa has ever flown through, and the surrounding area is covered in thick fog, and the whole world seems to be only the white of the sky and the blue of the sea.
"Everybody be careful not to get too far from the ship. ”
After Otowa finished speaking, he also glanced at the compass on the dashboard.
As she had seen on the bridge, the compass on the plane was not working properly, and the hands on it were constantly jumping.
"Stay vigilant. ”
Although they can't go out to scout now, they can still patrol around the battleship and warn the mothership if a ship approaches.
In this way, the four water planes circled around the mothership, constantly searching for the enemy who might appear at any time.
"Xiaoxue, did you find anything?"
"You can't see anything around...... Wait a minute. Xiaoxue suddenly stopped in the middle of her words, and after a while she continued: "There seems to be a dark shadow in the direction of 11 o'clock. ”
"OK, let's go take a look. ”
Otowa gently turned the joystick in his hand and pointed the nose in the direction that Koyuki had said.
Boom –
Before they could see the true face of the black shadow, the fighter plane suddenly shook in the air.
The fighter plane doesn't suddenly shake on its own, and it's not the first time that Otowa has piloted a plane to participate in a naval battle, so of course he knows that it was under attack from anti-aircraft guns.
Those who can have this range should be large-caliber anti-aircraft guns of more than 100mm.
Damn, AI must be hanging, such a small plane as oneself, it was attacked as soon as it entered the limit range of the anti-aircraft gun, is it unreasonable?
"This is Otowa, we are under fire from large-caliber anti-aircraft guns, pay attention to the direction of the ships at 3 o'clock. ”
With that, Otowa pushed down the lever in front of him slightly, and smoothly lowered the height of the fighter.
This water plane is not as strong as a fighter jet, and if you are not careful, you will break it.
Shells continued to explode around the fighter, and the fuselage swayed with it.
Fortunately, the AI did not cheat on the quasi-head, and the quasi-head of these large-caliber anti-aircraft guns is quite historical. Although the surrounding artillery fire looked fierce, none of them landed on Otowaba's fighters.
Soon, Otowa sees the AI warship attacking them.
Judging from the design of the turret,This should be a book destroyer.,But the specific model of the sound feather is not clear.。
"1 in the front and 2 in the back...... 4 torpedo launchers, it's a Yanyang-class!"
Unlike a half-witted person like Otowa, Xiaoxue was born in a professional class, and learned the specific ways to distinguish various warships in school.
"Flame Sun Level?"
Wori, don't need to be so excessive, come up with such an exciting thing.
It should have been the main gun of this thing that attacked them just now, a three-year 127mm twin gun.
Although the maximum elevation angle of this thing is 70 degrees, the shooting commander is used for ships, and it only theoretically has the ability to attack the air.
Ahh
