Chapter Eighty-Seven: Eat Me VT Bomb

"Then again, the main force on the opposite side didn't appear, where did it go?"

After the successful bombing, Otowa opened his mouth in some confusion. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"I guess I went to steal our aircraft carrier. ā€

Betty's voice was very indifferent, as if she was elaborating on a trivial matter.

"Isn't that miserable?"

"Cut, there are only a few planes on the other side, and you also want to steal aircraft carriers? Although Martina is very good, I have to admit that the Navigation Department still has some strength, and I don't practice much in jerking off or something. Betty paused, and then continued: "If there are 30 ships on the opposite side, the courage to explode may not be successful, but if they really play like this, they don't have to fight the next battle." ā€

After Betty, Yukieda smiled and spoke.

"You're too nervous, Izumi-san, Saipan is originally an air defense fortress, with 11 twin 40mm Bofors, 4 quadruple 40mm Bofors, and 15 twin 20mm Erlikong, not to mention that there are aircraft killers like Atlanta around. ā€

"That's right. Otowa nodded thoughtfully.

The 5.0-weight M19 multi-barreled artillery transporter used by the Armored Department this time is equipped with a twin-mounted 40mm Bofors. There are 11 such guns on board the Saipan, which can be said to be the firepower of 11 M19s.

In addition, the 15-door twin 20mm Erlikong on the Symbian can also be regarded as 15 Crusader anti-aircraft MK.II, that is, the anti-aircraft vehicles used by the Panzer Department in the last competition.

The Atlanta also has eight twin 127mm high-level dual-purpose guns capable of firing VT shells, four quadruple 28mm anti-aircraft guns, and eight single-mounted Erlikong.

Even the Fletcher-class destroyers have five 127mm Mk.30 high-level dual-purpose guns, five twin 40mm Bofors, and seven single 20mm Erlikong.

The combined anti-aircraft firepower of these six ships is absolutely frenzied, and if the other side really wants to forcibly drop bombs, it is estimated that few planes will come back.

It can be said that this is the trap that Oarai left on the other side.

"Betty-chan, the other side is really attacking our side, a radar on the expulsion detected the approaching aircraft group, the IFF did not react, it should be an enemy aircraft. ā€

On the radio, Martina's voice suddenly came out.

On a Fletcher-class destroyer, a bright spot appeared in the PPI display of the SC-2 radar, where the radar operator quickly sent a coded signal to the target using the IFF interrogator.

In the case of friendly forces, the IFF transponder on board will reply with a signal. And now there is no response, then the opposite side must be the fighter plane of Miyazawa Women's College.

"At five o'clock, the distance was about 25km, which should have been approaching at a low altitude, and now it is starting to climb high for dive bombing. ā€

Although the maximum search range of the SC-2 radar exceeded 100 km, it was still very powerless in the face of enemy aircraft flying close to the sea.

"Prepare for air defense, wheeled formations unfold. ā€

Now that Martina ran to wash the floor, the natural one in charge of air defense operations has become the captain of the Saipan.

This is a blue-haired girl in a sailor suit, not very tall, but unexpectedly majestic.

"Here is a lookout post to spot enemy aircraft. ā€

"The anti-aircraft artillery team must maintain the highest vigilance, give me a hard beat!"

The first to fire on Oarai's side was the twin 127mm high-level dual-purpose gun on the Atlanta.

Large-caliber anti-aircraft guns have always been salted fish, but when VT shells appeared, all that changed.

Before World War II and in World War II, most anti-aircraft guns used fixed-letter shells, that is, the gunner would measure the target, measure the distance and height from the enemy aircraft, and adjust the fuse of the anti-aircraft shell according to the approximate speed of the enemy aircraft to make the shell detonate when it was launched out. Before the war, various countries had begun to develop radio-explosive fuse shells, but they were not ideal, however, the United States imperialism went further and further on this road, and finally cooperated with Britain to develop high-performance and high-kill VT fuze shells during the war.

In fact, in layman's terms, VT fuze shell, referred to as wireless proximity fuze shell, is a special anti-aircraft shell for air shooting (if necessary, it can also shoot at the ground and sea), the function of VT fuze is characterized by the fact that the fuse can be detonated without touching the target, there is no delay time and trigger mechanism, and it completely relies on its sensitive device to sense the existence, speed, distance, and direction of the target, and the ammunition can be detonated at a certain distance from the target.

When the distance is gradually shortened (that is, when the warhead approaches the target), the internal signal transmitter detects the target, even if it does not directly hit the target, at a distance of 15 meters, the fuse will automatically activate (Doppler effect), detonate the shell, a large number of shrapnel and high-intensity shock waves will also destroy the target.

The eight combined 127mm anti-aircraft guns on the Atlanta have a configuration of three in the front and three in the back, one on the left and one on the right, which allows seven guns to fire at the same time.

14 VT shells instantly broke out of the muzzle and flew towards the enemy aircraft in the distance.

The gunners on Oarai's side aimed very accurately, and many shells exploded around the enemy planes, and several planes on Miyazawa's side were damaged in an instant.

The 127mm single-mount Takahira dual-purpose guns on the other four Fletcher-class destroyers also opened fire, and many VT shells flew towards the fleet of Miyazawa Women's College.

Where have these poor children ever seen such a fierce air defense, they were all stunned all of a sudden?

After a round, the electric loafer in the turret worked and delivered the warhead to the gun position.

The next cartridge was supposed to be loaded by manpower, but in order to minimize the number of personnel needed for each ship, this step was left to the robotic arm in the war game.

As soon as the warhead and cartridge were in place, the bomb feeder pushed the entire shell into the chamber.

It all seems like a long time, but it actually takes only three seconds.

The Atlanta's fourteen guns in seven turrets roared again, entering a state of extreme output that fired once every three seconds.

PS: We still don't know much about this type, and we've been struggling for a long time, and we have only written a chapter since 11 o'clock. The second chapter is estimated to be out of it.,I'm sorry~.
