"Our maritime patrol aircraft have already spotted the target, right in front of our course, and there are about a hundred nautical miles!" Although the reconnaissance aircraft was discovered, it completed its mission, and it passed back information about the target.

The B-29 bombers, who were flying at high altitude, received accurate information, and as they expected, the islanders' aircraft carriers were sailing north of Midway, and as long as they found the target, it would be easy to attack.

"Attention, attack in order." Major General Ulf shouted over the radio.

Pay attention to the order of attack!

If it is an ordinary bomb, then there is no need for any order, but for this VB-1 bomb, since there are only five guidance channels, if too many are dropped, it is useless and will interfere with radio guidance.

The five bombers of the 444th Bombardment Group flew out first, and those behind slowed down, waiting for the bombers in front of them to finish dropping bombs before they could follow and drop new bombs.

Rear Admiral Ulf's bomber, flying at the front, at this time, in the nose of the plane, the bombardier, Captain William O'Molay, was engrossed and kept his eyes firmly on the bombing sights.

Their VB-1 bombs, which are very similar to the German Fritz bombs, are radio-guided, and are completely operated by hand, and whether they can hit the target depends on the skill of their operators.

At the same time, compared to the German bombs, they were even more backward, they could only adjust the azimuth, not the distance!

That is to say, compared to the forward, backward, left, and right movements of the operating lever of the Fritz bomb, it can only be adjusted left and right, and when the bomb falls, it can turn left and right, but it cannot change back and forth.

It was named Ason, which means Azon, "Azimuth Only".

This characteristic makes it easy to bomb long fixed targets, such as railways, bridges, etc., but it is not easy to bomb warships at sea.

It wasn't until VB-3 that all that changed, and at the same time increased the number of radio channels to 47, so that everyone could come up and bomb together.

At this time, the control of the entire bomber has been transferred to Captain William, and whether he can hit the target or not depends on him.

"Turn left and adjust one degree to the left."

"Steady, get ready to enter the bombing route."

To attack the enemy's target with this bomb, you can only enter directly behind the opponent so that the bomb can fly in the correct course, and at the same time, pray that the opponent's fleet does not speed up and does not change course.

Inside the Norton sights, in the vast sea, the fleet was getting closer and closer, and now, they were at an altitude of eight thousand meters.

"Attention, target spotted, there are bombers!" At this time, the Zero fighters flying in the sky, the pilots raised their necks, and saw the bombers flying high in the sky, and they were extremely anxious.

"The height is more than eight thousand, we can't go up!" The pilot inside the Zero fighter shouted loudly in the bird language of Ula Ulla, informing the mothership in the rear.

Nagumo Tadaichi looked over from the bridge, and at this time, he also saw a formation of bombers flying in the sky, which was a large bomber, similar to the German Junkers-290.

"The Americans are running out of donkey skills, they actually use this kind of bomber to bomb me, don't be afraid, speed up, and be ready to dodge at any time."

The Germans dominated the development of weapons in this era, and the Germans had long made a verification that when attacking surface ships, dive bombers were the mainstream, and almost every battle was led by the roaring Stuka.

Now, the Americans are actually using this kind of large long-range bomber to find trouble for their own side, if they want to hit, they must dive, if they only bomb on the horizontal plane, the accuracy is almost zero, don't worry.

At the same time, your own formation accelerates, and when the time comes, it is quite easy to dodge the bombs.

The only thing that is unpleasant is that they will not be able to hit that height if they are only beaten and not fought back, but after importing BF109 from Germany, the Americans will not be able to run rampant.

Its own R&D capabilities are really too weak, and so far, no new fighters have been made, and now, Zero Combat is getting weaker and weaker.

The navy of the island country spotted the flying bombers, but they couldn't do anything because the altitude was too high for them to reach.

In later generations, the B-29 bombed the island country, which was also easy to come by, and the island people only had to be beaten, and they were forced to come up with anti-aircraft artillery of anti-sky caliber, and there was no combat example.

"Attention, bombs are about to be dropped, countdown, ten, nine, ......." At this moment, William was quite calm, and when he counted to zero, he immediately pressed the bomb button.

The bomb bay door in the belly of the plane opened, and inside, countless bombs rolled out and gathered together in the sky, like a swarm of locusts, rushing towards the island nation's fleet.

A group, of course.

A VB-1 bomb is only 1000 pounds and weighs half a ton, and the bomb load of the B-29 is definitely more than ten tons.

The VB-1 bomb was the last to fall, and the moment it fell, the tracking flash system in the tail began to light up.

This kind of bomb was originally improved from the 1000-pound M-44 bomb, although it was equipped with a new tail, gyroscope stabilization system, rudder, etc., but when the bomb fell, it was mixed with other bombs and was not visible at all, so there must be a constant flash in the tail, which was clearly visible from the carrier aircraft.

From this moment, William was in tight control, his pulse was as high as 140, his eyes were firmly fixed on the sight, which contained the flash of his own bomb, his hand was constantly fine-tuning the operating stick, and the bomb flew towards an aircraft carrier with a large deck!

Behind this bomber, the other four bombers also dropped bombs, and the rain of bombs flew towards the target, if the target continued to sail according to the original route, it would definitely cover the sky!

It's just carpet bombing!

If you are bombing a stationary target, this method has a huge damage ability, but now, on the surface of the sea, it is a moving warship!

"Attention, the whole fleet is at once full on the right rudder!" Nagumo Zhongyi shouted.

At this time, the warships had soared to their maximum speed, billowing black smoke came out of the chimney at the top, the bow split the waves, and the propellers at the tail stirred the sea water, making a gurgling sound.

Suddenly, all the warships, the hull of the ship tilted to the right side together, and when a full right rudder came at full speed, it was like a sharp direction on the highway, and the body could definitely fly, and now, the inclination of the warship was a full thirty degrees!

Especially the aircraft carrier, seeing that the deck is tilting, the effect is very exaggerated, but fortunately, the naval soldiers are well-trained, they have long been accustomed to this kind of action, their bodies are tilted with the warship, and their eyes are looking at the sky with disdain.

If you want to bomb a warship at high speed with a dense bomb, the Americans' brains are definitely funny, right?

For skilled soldiers, it is possible to see with the naked eye that almost all the bombs are flying into the air, but there are also sharp-eyed people who have discovered something.

Behind the rain of bombs, there seemed to be a very small number of bombs, which actually changed direction in the sky, and it followed the turn of the fleet!

In an instant, a nimble-minded person remembered something, it was said that the Germans had guided bombs in their equipment, and it seems that the Americans also had such things in their arsenals!
