1218 caught up with the Germans
A few technocrats began to talk about the topic they were most interested in: analyzing the advantages of the Germans from a technical point of view.
An official gave an example to prove that the German Navy has its own advantages in the use of carrier-based aircraft and aircraft carriers: "Their carrier-based aircraft are very powerful, according to technical speculation, their radar performance is very good, and the commander's understanding of radar is very good." ”
This is not something he said alone, but a sound technical analysis. The Germans, in the Battle of the Atlantic, avoided almost all British naval encirclement, which in no way can be explained by luck.
Combined with the current stage of technology, the American technical departments firmly believe in the judgment of the British high-level, that is, they believe that the German Navy has a radar with quite good performance.
With the support of radar, the German naval commanders also trusted and relied on radar technology more than the US Navy.
These things can be judged, which is why the United States has always emphasized the research and development of radar technology and the popularization of radar equipment as soon as possible.
Equipped with a large number of radars, they also gained an advantage in the contest with the Japanese Navy. However, they still feel that the Germans will not easily give up the research and development of radar equipment after eating the sweetness.
The forecasting department believed that the Germans were more advanced in radar technology than the Americans, and they had no solid evidence, but they still trusted their own judgment.
In fact, their judgment was quite accurate, because the radar technology of the Germans was indeed more advanced than that of the Americans, and much more advanced.
The Germans have an advantage in terms of detection range, and the Germans are slightly better than the Americans in display technology.
The point is that the Germans' radars are starting to shrink, which means that the Germans are increasingly likely to use radar technology for guidance.
It's a pity that the top level of the United States has nothing to do about it, they can't stop the Germans from continuing to develop radar technology, and they can't surpass the Germans' technological accumulation in the short term.
However, it is not without good news, the good news is that the carrier-based aircraft technology of the Germans seems to have reached a bottleneck, and it is not stronger than the carrier-based aircraft equipped by the United States.
The German carrier-based aircraft is a modification of the well-known F-190 fighter, which is codenamed F-190T Sea Lark within the German army.
However, it is a pity that this is a naval aircraft converted from an army aviation fighter, and its performance is not top-notch among carrier-based aircraft.
Compared with the Japanese Zero fighter, this aircraft was slightly inferior in range and plane maneuverability, and also limited the air strike radius of the German Navy.
"But their success is based on the premise that the British carrier-based aircraft are low, so I personally don't want to believe how strong they are." Another U.S. intelligence officer spoke.
What he was talking about was the fact that the German carrier-based aircraft unit took advantage of the backwardness of the British carrier-based aircraft to win the Battle of the Atlantic.
Obviously, using ME-109T and F-190T fighters to bully the British Swordfish attack aircraft is not a very glamorous thing.
There is a generational gap between the two, which is not a product of the same era at all, so the German Navy's carrier-based aircraft force is invincible, this is the British Navy's feedback to the US intelligence services.
The British Navy is telling the truth, but they will not stress to the US intelligence services that only the German Navy, which combines radar technology with advanced carrier-based aircraft, can take bullying to such an extreme.
Marshall knew that it was boring, so he could only open his mouth and remind: "Don't underestimate the enemy!" The Germans did not have a strong navy, but if the British did take refuge in them, it would still be a nuisance for us. ”
"How could the British have defected to the Germans?" A U.S. official was startled and asked his fellow U.S. intelligence colleagues.
The colleague was apparently not surprised by this speculation, since the British were not considered unwavering allies in the eyes of the United States.
If you really speculate deeply, World War II was completely the second attempt by the United States, an emerging power, to pull Britain down from the altar.
The First World War was the first attempt by the United States, or rather, the First World War was the first attempt by Germany, but the beneficiary was the United States. And the second, which was secretly supported by the United States, was a pit against Britain – at least, for the first half of World War II.
It's just that later, because of Hitler's personal ambitions, or the unexpected rise of Germany beyond control, an attempt to bring down Britain turned into a catastrophe that swept the world.
He thought for a moment and replied, "The British are not friendly to us compared to the Germans...... This is a multiple-choice question, and the answer is known only to the British themselves. ”
Obviously, the British were really making a multiple-choice question, they were oscillating between Germany and the United States, and this time because of the German paratroopers, they were swinging to the side of the Germans again.
"We've increased the control of the Canadian side, and the chances of the Germans using Canada to land are not high, and they come across the sea and can easily be crushed by us." A U.S. Army general spoke.
The U.S. Army's expansion is huge, and it already has millions of regular troops assembled on the American continent and in Australia.
If you want to defeat millions of US troops on the doorstep of the United States, even a world power like Germany, which has an army, cannot do it.
"That's good news, much better than the news from New Guinea!" After hearing the news, Roosevelt nodded and said sickly.
"Obviously, our counter-attack in the Pacific is still slow, and the Germans get the rhythm they want." Marshall had to pour a basin of cold water.
Roosevelt heard Marshall's words, didn't know what he was thinking, and was silent for a while before he spoke: "Defeat the Japanese defenders in New Guinea as soon as possible and gain the initiative...... This will allow us to regain our advantage in the following period. ”
"Hopefully, we can win quickly in New Guinea." Marshall agreed: "We don't have time. ”
"While the Germans have to face snow and ice on the Eastern Front, we can continue to attack in the Pacific and catch up with the gap between us and the Germans." He spoke last.
Roosevelt sat in his wheelchair, holding in his hand a report from the German occupation of Rostov-on-Don, a report he had read several times and which marked the completion of their German offensive operations on the Eastern Front.
With a sigh, he put the report on the table in front of him: "Do what you can, follow in the footsteps of the Germans!" ”
