Ten large JU-290 bombers dropped several large FX2400 gliding guided bombs, and only one was needed to destroy the Ark Royal!

When they came, they didn't fly together, and there was a time difference between before and after, so when the first one hit the Ark Royal, the second bomb had just been dropped. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

And this bomb, aimed at the Hood!

The Hood is also famous in World War II in history, but this reputation is tragic.

On May 24, 1941, the Hood and the battleship Prince of Wales tracked and intercepted the German battleship Bismarck in the Danish Strait, and was accurately hit by the gunner on the Bismarck, causing an explosion in the rear main gun ammunition depot, and the hull broke and sank quickly.

The sinking of the Hood made the Bismarck famous, and of course, the victorious Bismarck did not last long, and was soon killed by the British Royal Navy.

And now the Hood, it is even more tragic, it does not have any decent record, it has already been targeted!

HMS Hood, in the British armament sequence, belongs to the battle cruiser, which is a new type of capital ship with strong functionality that evolved on the basis of armored cruisers.

This is a kind of warship with a combination of powerful firepower and high mobility, which can not only effectively combat enemy attacks, but also quickly deploy to deal with emergencies.

It was designed to be faster than the strongest battleships and stronger than the fastest cruisers. If you can, you can fight, and if you can't, you can run.

In practice, after the birth of the Hood, the performance is quite advanced, it has a standard displacement of 40,000 tons, four twin 381 mm guns and a speed of 31 knots, which is regarded as the pride of the British Royal Navy.

And now, in the Gulf of Karpass, this warship has also ushered in the most tragic day.

Now the British Navy had a total of 17 battleships and 3 battlecruisers, which were the worst enemy of the German Navy, and in the Karpas Bay, large targets, were first assigned to the first attacking aircraft!

When the air raid sirens sounded, the Hood was also busy.

The British Navy, not yet ready for war, like the Ark Royal, most of the sailors are on shore, and now, on the warships on the docks, only a few sailors remain on it.

However, the sinking of the Ark Royal has given everyone a wake-up call, and at this time, they have no choice but to retreat!

"Quick, quick, quick!" Tom, a sailor who had just served for two months, shouted loudly as he ran towards his position.

Air defense alerts, those planes flying in the sky, are here to bomb their own fleet, at such a time, they have to fight!

He stepped into his position in a few steps, shaking the handlebars quickly.

Compared to the sinking Ark Royal next door, he was lucky, his weapon was equipped with ammunition.

This is a 4-pack machine gun turret with 4 0.50-inch 62x diameter machine guns, compared to the other anti-aircraft guns on the Hood, this machine gun has a very close range, but it does not need to carry shells, machine gun bullets, right next to the ammunition box!

He's the only one running over, and he has to be fast!

While shaking the handlebar, he opened the ammunition box and stuffed the 12.7 mm bullet chain into the chamber of the machine gun, and at this juncture, he burst out with great potential.

It's too late, it's too late!

Listening to the whistling sound in the distance, he knew that the bomb was already very close to him, so although he only hung two bullet chains, he could not hesitate any longer.

Quadruple machine guns are designed to increase the density of fire, as a last resort, to intercept those terrible bombs!

In general, even a dive bomber will not fly into the range of a machine gun, what he wants to intercept is a bomb!

Holding his breath, Tom's arm ached, and he crossed his sight, covering the target.

It was a bomb, a big bomb that scared everyone!

The round head and the small wings spread out are a little different from ordinary bombs, but just looking at the block, there is a deep fear in people's hearts, if it is hit by this kind of bomb, the Hood will definitely sink!

At this time, only one of his gun emplacements on the entire Hood was ready, and the task of saving the Hood fell on his shoulders!

At the same time, in the wheel compartment of the Hood, the sailors on duty here are also doing their best to save the battleship.

Firing!

In the past, warships still used coal-burning boilers, but now, many of them burn heavy oil, which is easier to load than coal-burning, but heavy oil boilers are not easy to ignite.

Therefore, this kind of warship is also loaded with a part of diesel fuel, which ignites the diesel first, and then ignites the heavy fuel oil, which is such a process.

In the chimney of the Hood, puffs of green smoke were coming out, and diesel fuel was being ignited!

Although it will take a long time from igniting the battleship to making it move, we must not sit idly by!

At the same time as the battleship ignited, Tom was in his position and pressed the firing switch of the machine gun.

"Tom tom!" Since there were two machine guns that were not equipped with chains, only two machine guns were firing, and 12.7 mm bullets were spilled into the sky!

Come on, Germans!

As he fired, 12.7mm bullets erupted from the muzzle, the muzzle was full of flames, and the machine gun bullets were aimed at the flying bomb!

It was difficult to operate alone, Tom felt his arm be extremely sore, and now, he had to do his best to hit the bomb that was dropped!

Theoretically, even if the quadruple machine guns fired together, there was only a small hit rate, but now, perhaps it was his actions that moved God, and just when he operated the machine gun and kept firing, the bullets rained down, covering the path of the bomb flying in front!

Then, the 12.7 mm bullet made close contact with the bomb, and the bullet hit the bomb's iron casing, making a violent collision sound.

However, it didn't work!

Aerial bombs have a layer of iron shell on the outside, and this bomb is 2,400 kilograms, and this kind of large bomb, of course, will not be stingy with shell.

Moreover, this bomb is going to sink tens of thousands of tons of warships! This kind of battleship has thick armor, and if you want to sink this kind of battleship, then the corresponding aerial bomb should be harder!

So, the iron casing on the outside, which is thick enough, 12.7 mm machine gun bullets, is simply powerless against it!

However, it is still possible to hit some weak places, such as the flick wing, such as the rudder surface of the control!
