Chapter 1176: Destroy (Ask for a Monthly Pass)

The German Navy has many more Constellation-class aircraft carriers than the previous 'Deutschland-class' aircraft carriers. Especially in the last batch of 'Constellation-class' aircraft carriers, after the installation of the beveled deck, the attendance rate of the fighters has increased a lot. The hangar plus deck can accommodate up to 103 warplanes in total.

Among these fighters, there is a total of a carrier-based fighter group, including 36 carrier-based BF-109 fighters, a dive bomber group, and 36 carrier-based Stuka dive bombers. A brigade of torpedo attack aircraft, including 24 torpedo attack aircraft. In addition, there were 7 fighters in reserve, three fighters, two dive bombers and two torpedo attack aircraft. Compared with the previous two batches of 'Constellation-class' aircraft carriers, the number of fighters on board is a little more. Naturally, the combat effectiveness will be a little stronger.

Immediately after the order of Field Marshal Lütjens, the carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy took off from the aircraft carriers "Archer" and "Capricorn".

Carrier-based aircraft on two aircraft carriers, half of each took off. After completing the marshalling in the air, they flew to the Murmansk military port. The order given to them by Field Marshal Lütjans was to completely destroy this military port, so that the Russian navy could no longer use it. In this way, the Russian fleet was forced to come out and engage in a decisive battle with them.

After the first batch of carrier-based aircraft took off, the ground crews were busy, and they needed to refuel and refill ammunition for the second batch of carrier-based aircraft. In this way, it will be possible to let the second batch of carrier-based aircraft take off before the first batch of carrier-based aircraft return home.

More than ninety carrier-based aircraft, flying to Murmansk at high speed. Now there is no radar in the Russian countries, and they are not aware of the upcoming attack. It was discovered knowing that the carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy flew not far from Murmansk.

"Whew!"

The mournful sirens sounded throughout the naval base, and countless Russian anti-aircraft guns began to rush towards the anti-aircraft gun positions. When Admiral Isakov left, he instructed them that if they were attacked by the German navy, they must find a way to keep the military port. In this way, they will have a way back.

"Fighters suppress the air defense positions of the Burussians, dive bombers and torpedo attack aircraft, ready to attack the target!" Colonel Hoffmann, the commander of the 16th Wing of the German Navy's carrier-based aircraft, who commanded the battle, ordered.

Thirty-six carrier-based BF-109 fighters were the first to attack. Their targets are precisely those Russian air defense positions that are firing.

"Knock knock! Da-da-da-da! ”

Anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns are firing wildly. There is no doubt that the Russian air defense forces at this base are participating in actual combat for the first time. So much so that they looked a little flustered in the face of the carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy.

The fire of anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns, although fierce and dense, appeared scattered. The carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy were easily able to shuttle through the rain of bullets. It looks very dangerous, but it's actually very safe.

A carrier-based BF-109 fighter jet swept past an air defense position of the Russian Navy. Two bombs hanging under the wings, have already been dropped. The bomb landed accurately on this anti-aircraft position, and after the explosion, two anti-aircraft guns were overturned, and several Russian air defense soldiers were killed.

Under the attack of these carrier-based BF-109 fighters, the air defense positions of the Russian army suffered heavy losses. For a time, the anti-aircraft artillery fire was also much weaker.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, those dive bombers and torpedo attack aircraft attacked.

Dive bombers began to attack valuable targets in the military port, and the ammunition depot, oil depot, and headquarters in the military port were all very valuable targets. These dive bombers carry heavy aerial bombs, which are able to effectively destroy them.

When the torpedo attack aircraft launched an attack on land targets, it did not carry torpedoes, but carried several aerial bombs and used them as horizontal bombers.

These torpedo attack planes dropped bombs one after another at an altitude of one kilometer above the ground.

Dense explosions rang out throughout the military port, and smoke billowed from a ship repair shop next to the dock.

"Damn the Germans, fire quickly! Shoot them down! A Russian officer shouted.

However, the anti-aircraft fire of the Russian army seems to be very fierce, but in fact, it does not pose any threat to these carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy at all. The German Navy's carrier-based aircraft were like petrels in a storm, shuttling through a dense hail of bullets.

"Knock knock!"

A carrier-based BF-109 fighter jet fired at a Russian air defense position with a cannon. The entire air defense position suffered heavy losses in the dense rain of bullets. One by one, the Russian air defense was torn to pieces.

It can be said that before the advent of anti-aircraft missiles, the air defense forces on the ground were already in a very disadvantageous position in the confrontation with fighters. Fighters are fast enough to quickly evade anti-aircraft fire on the ground and then attack. The anti-aircraft fire on the ground is mostly fixed. This makes them vulnerable to fighter fire.

"Boom!"

A violent explosion rang out, and an underground building on the corner of the military port was blown open. Flames and smoke were coming out of it. This is the oil depot of the military port, which was originally built underground, but this time it still can't escape.

Under the heavy air raids of the German carrier-based aircraft, the buildings in the military port were destroyed one after another.

After suppressing the anti-aircraft fire of the Russian army, some carrier-based fighters even opened fire on the ground personnel who were scattering them. Many Russian soldiers were directly slaughtered.

During this round of attack, one of the German carrier-based aircraft was also shot down by anti-aircraft fire from the ground.

After dropping the bombs, the German carrier-based aircraft began to withdraw. They need to return to the carrier-based aircraft, refill the tank, refill the bombs, and launch another round of attacks on the Murmansk military port if the situation is possible.

Soon after the departure of the first batch of carrier-based aircraft, the second group of carrier-based aircraft flew over the Murmansk military port and launched another attack on the place.

Many of the carrier-based aircraft that survived before were not able to escape this time. Including the ammunition depot, which was also blown up during this round of attacks. The entire Murmansk military port has been bombed to pieces.

Subsequently, carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy launched a third round of attacks. In fact, there are not many worthy targets left in this round of attacks. At the end of this round of attacks, the military port of Murmansk was completely destroyed. There is no place left for the Buese Navy to dock.
