At this time, the Kaiser considered the problem from the same angle as the prince, for some deadly weapons, such as torpedoes, the simple hit rate is not really important, because this kind of thing belongs to the kind of thing that can kill if it hits. Pen ~ fun ~ Ge www.biquge.info German battleships were relatively strong, and the lethality of torpedoes was poor. But for British battleships with not very good underwater protection, 2 may be fatal, 3 have a high probability of being finished, and 4 can be ready to sink themselves. Not to mention that more than 20 planes hit 4 shots, for an aircraft carrier, I can hit 4 rounds of 40 torpedoes in a combat day, and if I kill a super dreadnought, it will also be a profit! At this time, it is better to care about the hit rate than to calculate how many planes an aircraft carrier can send at one time and how many torpedoes can hit!

"Ruprecht, how many planes can your aircraft carrier Wittelsbach carry? And how many torpedo-carrying attack aircraft can be dispatched at one time? The Kaiser asked the question again. And this time he said this kind of thing is no longer a simple inquiry, but a very formal inquiry that will greatly affect the future of the German Navy!

"90 aircraft, if it is the first wave of attack, I can take off at least 30 planes in the first wave, of which 20 are attack aircraft, and then give me a maximum of 40 minutes, I can dispatch another 20 to 25 attack aircraft, based on the current air defense capability of the British fleet, these planes can completely sink any capital ship!" The prince thought for a moment and said.

"So how many times a day can such a fleet be dispatched?" The Kaiser continued.

"If you get stuck in the time period of 1 hour, you can strike at most once. After the release of the aircraft, it will need to be recovered, refueled, reloaded and reconditioned, which will be a long time, and at the same time, the number of torpedoes on the aircraft carrier is limited. "The prince told the truth, in fact, referring to the aircraft sortie efficiency of aircraft carriers in World War 2, generally speaking, there were two waves, and if there were three waves, it would be sky-high. The attrition of aircraft in the environment of World War II is naturally a factor limiting the attendance, although at present, although there is no need to consider how NB the British seaplane air defense is. However, recovering and retooling also takes a long time. And another factor that cannot be ignored is the torpedo capacity of aircraft carriers.

How many torpedoes can an aircraft carrier carry? If the prince remembers correctly, even when it comes to Essex, aircraft carriers of the Taiho class generally carry no more than 45 torpedoes. Although the torpedoes of this plane are a little smaller....... Although taking into account later reasons of one kind or another. (I can't go into details about this for now.) But now the Wittelsbach has a maximum torpedo capacity of about 45 rounds. Not too high. So this is another reason why you have to carry bombs when the hit rate of bombs is not high, because there are not enough torpedoes!

And just when the Kaiser wanted to ask a few more questions, the battle in the distance began again, and the smoke screen released by the Saxony could no longer provide cover for the battleship, and the smoke covered the battleship much longer than expected, which had nothing to do with the sea breeze, but because of the problem of perspective.

"The smoke screen of the Saxony lasted only about ten minutes. In the past, in the face of artillery shelling from battleships, it was possible to provide at least 25 minutes. Hipper explained to the Kaiser.

"Smoke does not save the fleet, it only gives the fleet a chance to retreat or counterattack. And once you encounter a situation where you can't fight and can't run away, it's just a time to delay defeat. And one of the biggest advantages of aviation is that there is absolutely no situation where you can't catch up with the battleship! ”

When the smoke screen cleared, if Major General Becken had seen the first wave of the Air Force attack only depressed, then when he saw the planes in the sky again, he felt hopeless now! Because this time a formation of 9 bombers and 8 torpedo planes directly launched an attack on the battleship Saxony at the same time! The previous attack was like a brick that caught the Saxony off guard, but this time, it was a sledgehammer that smashed directly into the face of the major general! For the first time, he realized how terrifying such a humble plane could be!

Before, the battleship Saxony could still jump in the face of air attacks, but now, after being hit by two torpedoes, it has been judged to have received moderate trauma, and the battleship Saxony, whose speed has been overwhelmed by 18.5 knots, is really helpless! And this wave of attacks has directly pushed this exercise to a climax!

The smoke screen temporarily blocked the view of the aircraft, but at the same time, it also greatly reduced the air vigilance ability of the battleship Saxony, and all were ...... in front of the smoke screen. And so, tragedy struck. When the Saxony burst out of the smoke screen, when the lookouts were still a little confused, the sea eagles who were standing farther away had already attacked! With 8 torpedo planes in front and 9 dive bombers in the rear, they rushed to the target at a speed of only 18 knots!

"! Finished! "When the lookout saw the attack aircraft under the cover of a smoke screen, the latter was only 3,000 meters away from the battleship! Throwing away the torpedo launch distance of about 800 meters, the time for these deadly wasps to enter the attack distance is just over 1 minute! And at this time, the people below who control the battleship still don't know anything!

So, before the lookout could tell Rear Admiral Beckern about the situation, and before the decision-makers of the Saxony could react, the four torpedo planes dropped four torpedoes cleanly and neatly!

In addition to one torpedo that may have shattered the steering gear after entering the water, causing a Blanco movement on the sea, the other 3 torpedoes directly hit 2 rounds, and these two shots slapped on the port side of the bullet just now, so the sad battleship Saxony was judged to have hit 4 mines on the left line!

The third torpedo hit the middle of the hull, where the thickness of the TDS was the greatest, so the damage caused was relatively small. But the position of the fourth hit is a bit fatal. This torpedo and the first torpedo hit almost the same position! If in actual combat, two torpedoes really hit a British battleship in almost the same position, then a hole more than ten meters long will definitely not be able to escape! And a one-sided hit of 4 torpedoes ?! Even if it was an aviation torpedo, more than 8 percent of the British battleships were estimated to have knelt directly! Maybe the queen and revenge still have a chance to survive.

"Well, there is no need to fight this battle, if the other side uses a real torpedo, then by now, the area before the No. 2 turret of the Saxony can be completely submerged in water and can be used to raise fish!" After confirming the position of Zhonglei, the referee team said directly to Major General Beckern. Another meaning is that this battle is no longer fought, if this ship is a British battleship, 8% of it has already sunk. I won 20 votes directly!

"If urgent repairs are arranged, this battleship is still old." Major General Becken said with some hideousness.

"That assigns that the other party doesn't continue to attack. If it is in real combat, then now the battleship will have a speed of up to 12 knots. And there has been a serious leftward drift, and it is difficult to say whether it can even be effectively controlled. If you count the amount of water intake, if 4 aviation torpedoes hit unilaterally, how can it be that more than 3200 tons of water will be inflowed, right? An officer of the referee team said.

And when there was an argument between the two sides, the attack of the sea eagles did not stop, to be honest, this period was very short, only about 3 minutes. Four more torpedo planes rushed to the starboard side of the Saxony and dropped four torpedoes. Well, there is always a delay in the exercises. While the referees and Rear Admiral Beckern were arguing over whether the ship could continue the fight, the Saxony had been sailing at its previous speed of 18 knots. After all, it wasn't really a thunderbolt. Therefore, this time the lightning hit a little lower, and only one torpedo was shot, but the position of the shot was more fatal .......

The torpedo, which weighed more than 400 kilograms, entered directly from the starboard side and crashed straight into one of the rudders on the right side of the rear of the Saxony's hull! After all, it is a lump of more than 400 kilograms of steel that travels at a speed of 35 knots. If it does, even without explosives, it will be enough to shatter the rudder and affect the propeller spinning at high speed next to it!

With a dull crisp sound, the huge rudder was smashed to pieces, and the large and small debris rushed directly to a propeller behind it that was spinning at high speed with a violent impact, and the flying blades were directly shattered by the debris. It even brought some damage to the propeller shaft. There was even a slight tremor throughout the hull, and a screeching sound resembling metalwork striking glass could be clearly heard from the rear compartment. This really frightened Major General Beckern, who decisively ordered the two steam turbines on the starboard side to be shut down.

"It seems to be playing big this time...... When Scheer saw the news that a rudder and a propeller on the starboard side of the Saxony had been destroyed, he couldn't help but wipe a cold sweat. He really didn't expect that such a serious accident could occur in a single exercise. "I suggest that the exercise be stopped immediately, there is no point in dwelling on it any longer!"

"And yet those bastards don't seem to think so?!" Rear Admiral Beckern said, pointing to the bombers that were flying quickly in the air. After the second wave of torpedo planes finished attacking, the first wave of bombers finally entered the battlefield, to be honest, they have not yet received the order to end the exercise, so naturally they will drop the bombs!

The first bomber flew at a speed of 300 kilometers per hour from an altitude of 90 meters. Then he decisively dropped the bomb next to the Saxony, and a column of water almost clinged to the side of the ship. The eight attack planes behind them, forming a loose triangular formation, swept over the Saxony, and after referring to the information provided by the guide aircraft, eight 50KG training shells fell one after another.

The second is more ~~~! 3K's big chapter ~~~!
