It is already needless to say how powerful the aircraft of the German Navy were. Previously, the German Navy's aircraft launched two rounds of attacks, which caused the Combined Fleet to lose ten battleships, which directly put the Combined Fleet at a disadvantage before the main showdown began. Now, these planes are here again. This undoubtedly posed a fatal threat to the battlecruiser "Tiger".

The number of aircraft in the sky, not much, only four fighters, 8 bombers and 8 torpedo attack aircraft. Reinhart? Admiral Scheer asked the aircraft carriers to send carrier-based aircraft to attack the Allied warships that had escaped. As for those who cannot escape, they will be dealt with by the capital ships of the High Seas Fleet. Therefore, these carrier-based aircraft are scattered sorties.

The battlecruiser "Tiger" was the most powerful battle cruiser of the British Royal Navy. Although it cannot be compared with the powerful battle cruisers of the German Navy, it is no less to be underestimated. However, the current "Tiger" battlecruiser is like meat on the board, at the mercy of the carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy.

'Whew! Shout! Shout! ’

The squadron leader in charge of directing the operation fired three flares from his flare gun. Suddenly, these carrier-based aircraft swooped down on the battlecruiser 'Tiger' and launched an attack.

Four fighters were the first to attack, firing the deck and anti-aircraft gun emplacements of the battleship Tiger with aerial machine guns.

The "Tiger" battlecruiser was equipped with a lot of anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns. If bombers and torpedo attack planes attacked rashly, they would most likely be shot down by anti-aircraft fire from the battlecruiser Tiger. At this time, the fighter played the role of covering the attack of bombers and torpedo attack aircraft.

"Da Da Da!"

The fighter quickly swept past the battlecruiser 'Tiger'. Bullets from the dense aviation machine guns hit the steel plates of the battleship and burst out one spark after another. Occasionally, a bullet hit the body of a British Navy soldier, making that frightening "poof" sound.

Screams rang out one after another, and many British sailors were torn to pieces.

When the anti-aircraft fire of the battlecruiser "Tiger" was attracted by the attracted fighters, bombers and torpedo attack planes took the opportunity to attack. The four bombers began to dive and drop bombs from a high altitude, and only when they were only 800 meters away from the battlecruiser "Tiger" did they drop their bombs and change the dive course.

Four bombs, in the form of a parabola, were dropped on the battlecruiser "Tiger".

"Avoid! Evade quickly! Bombs of the Germans! ”

The battleship Tiger made an emergency turn to avoid the bombs falling from the sky. Four bombs, three fell into the sea. But the other one hit the battlecruiser 'Tiger'.

The aerial bomb weighing 250 kilograms, under the action of huge potential energy, has an extremely strong armor-piercing ability. The deck armor of the battlecruiser "Tiger" was torn open at once. The bomb penetrated the deck armor and exploded inside, destroying several compartments.

While the bombers were bombing, four torpedo attack planes also took the opportunity to attack. They dropped torpedoes just five hundred meters from the battlecruiser 'Tiger'. Four 450 mm medium torpedoes rushed to the battlecruiser "Tiger" at a high speed.

"Torpedo, torpedo found on the port side. Urgent evasion! ”

The battlecruiser "Tiger" once again began to make an emergency turn. The centrifugal force threw some of the sailors on the deck, who were unprepared, directly into the sea. However, no one cares about them anymore at this time.

To avoid being hit by a torpedo. The battlecruiser 'Tiger' made an emergency turn. However, it will undoubtedly take a certain amount of time for a huge battle cruiser to complete the turn. Four torpedoes that came at high speed would not have given them so much time at all.

"Boom!"

A violent explosion sounded on the port side of the battlecruiser 'Tiger'. With only 9 inches, or 228 mm thick, waterline armor was simply not able to withstand the warhead of a medium torpedo.

The huge power directly tore through the waterline armor and blew out a big hole.

Immediately afterwards, another explosion sounded, and the stern of the battlecruiser "Tiger" was torpedoed. The violent explosion blew up all the steering engines of the battlecruiser "Tiger".

The other two torpedoes, although they did not hit the battlecruiser 'Tiger'. However, after two torpedoes, the battlecruiser "Tiger" was already heavily damaged.

"General, the servo has been blown up, and we have lost the ability to steer." An officer with a sad face to David? Lieutenant General Betty reported.

"Damn!" David? Lieutenant General Betty couldn't help but scold.

The loss of steering meant that the Tiger battlecruiser would become a live target for the enemy to attack. And at this moment, above the head of the battlecruiser 'Tiger', there are still quite a few German planes circling. These planes were carrying bombs and torpedoes.

The carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy seized the opportunity of the heavy damage of the battlecruiser 'Tiger' and launched an attack. After losing the ability to steer, the attack of the carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy will undoubtedly make it easier to hit the target.

In the new round of attacks, four bombers dropped bombs, three of which hit the battlecruiser Tiger. The four medium torpedoes fired by the four torpedo attack planes were all hit.

Suddenly, the port side of the battlecruiser "Tiger" was blown out of several large holes. The damage management personnel can only do nothing about this, and let the sea water pour into the battleship.

David? Vice Admiral Betty had no choice but to give the order to abandon the ship. Soon, the battlecruiser "Tiger" capsized and sank into the sea.

Four battleships of the French Navy and two battleships of the Italian Navy were also not able to escape.

When dozens of carrier-based aircraft caught up with them, both Admiral Rame and Paul were terrified. They had seen with their own eyes how the German Navy's planes had sunk their warships.

So, in order to save their lives, Admiral Lame and Admiral Paul gave the order to surrender. They made the soldiers raise the white flag, and at the same time turned off the boilers, stopping the advance.

Such a move by the French and Italians surprised the pilots of carrier-based aircraft. However, since the French and Italians chose to surrender, they continued to attack every year, hovering over the fleet.

Fortunately, the fleet led by Vice Admiral Spee arrived. Received these surrendered French and Italian battleships. However, it was later discovered that Admiral Lame and Admiral Paul had already fled first on the destroyer. But being able to capture six battleships was still very satisfying to the German Navy.
