Chapter 1167: Elections and Wars IV

At the naval base in Buenos Aires, the wind was blowing strongly, but the weather was very clear, making it a good day for high-altitude reconnaissance. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info three battleships of the New Asbanian Navy, the Admiral La Torre, the Rivadavia and the Moreno, were docked on the pier, and a long line of rainbow-like signal flags fluttered in the wind from the mast to the bow and stern. Because it's a Sunday, the marina is crowded with Buenos Aires residents who have come to see their country's powerful naval fleet. Many of them also carried cameras and shot at the huge warship. The New Asbanian Marines standing guard on the docks did not stop them, as if they had never heard of such a profession as American agents.

And when the air raid sirens sounded, the people who visited did not know how to dodge, but instead raised their necks to look at the sky. They want to see how the mighty new Asbanian Air Force is fighting US imperialism!

What happened next did not disappoint the residents of Buenos Aires, as four BF109G-6 fighters of the New Asbanian Air Force took off urgently, climbed to an altitude of 11,000 meters with their own fairly good altitude, and then made a detour behind the F-13 that swaggered to reconnoitre, and drove it away with a burst of gunfire.

Garland and Gordon. When Grob drove to the European Coalition Command at the Buenos Aires naval base, Canaris and Falkenhorst had just finished observing the battle in the air.

"Adolf," Canaris asked with a frown when he saw Garland, an expert in air combat, "Is the American B-29 so difficult to deal with?" ”

"It's hard to get it down with the BF-109G-6." Garland didn't see the air battle just now, but he knew the outcome without looking. The most advanced fighters of the new Asbanian Air Force are the BF-109G-6, Fw190A-4 and SM.92 (heavy fighters provided by the Roman Empire to Peron), but these aircraft are very average at very high altitudes, and once the F-13 (modified from the B-29) accelerates, they will be difficult to catch up.

"Our Me262HG is more than enough to deal with them, though." Gordon. Colonel Grob assured Canaris and Falkenhorst that "if necessary, our 80 Me262HGs, 40 Fokker 636s and 40 Fw190s can inflict heavy damage on the invading B-29s." In addition, we have 80 He219 and 40 Me410, which, guided by Me264H high-altitude AWACS aircraft, can inflict heavy damage on incoming B-29s at night. ”

Like the Bv138E water early warning aircraft, the Me264H high-altitude early warning aircraft is equipped with a high-power S-band radar and a large number of radio communication equipment.

And because of the superior high-altitude performance of the Me264H, it can be used to command night fighters to resist the night penetration of enemy long-range bombers, and it can also cover their own high-altitude long-range bombers to carry out night assaults on the enemy.

The Luftwaffe's 10th Air Division, deployed to the New Asbanian Federation, was attached to an upper-altitude early warning reconnaissance squadron equipped with three Me264Hs.

After stating that the 10th Air Division had enough combat power to fight any enemy attacking from the air, Garland and Gordon. Grob also mentioned his speculation that the Americans probably possessed guided weapons that could attack surface ships.

"William, do you have any information on this?" General Falkenhorst asked Canaris, who had been in charge of intelligence for a long time.

"There are a lot of them." Canaris replied.

Although he is no longer in charge of intelligence work, according to Hersman's instructions, he still receives regular intelligence summaries from the General Directorate of Central Security and the Military Intelligence Directorate.

He told Falkenhorst: "There is a type of radio-controlled suicide plane that has been used on the battlefield by radio and television, modified with B-17 and B-24. Played a big role in the Battle of the Hawaiian Islands. There is also a radio-controlled bomb that was used in the US bombing of oil fields in Southeast Asia, and the effect is said to be good. There are also some rumors of radar-guided bombs, but they have not been found on the battlefield. ”

"Maybe we'll find out soon." "If the Americans were going to bomb the new Asbanian fleet in the port of Buenos Aires, we would have taken the opportunity to see it, and maybe we could pick up a sample," Falkenhorst said. This is of great benefit to us in developing the same weapons. ”

Germany, of course, is also developing radar-guided armament, including surface-to-air (ship-to-air), air-to-air and air-to-ship (ship-to-ship) missiles. However, these radar-guided missiles in development are not as good as television-guided or "cat's-eye-guided" missiles. That's why it hasn't been put into actual combat for a long time.

Knowing the bottlenecks encountered by the German military-industrial complex in this regard, Canaris agreed with Falkenhorst, nodded and said: "So be it...... Anyway, those battleships of the New Asbanian Navy are old products, so let them make some contribution at the end. ”

He paused, and then said: "We have to send a report to the upper authorities quickly, and ask the military industry department to send some missile experts to Buenos Aires." This may be a rare opportunity to verify the performance of the missile in real combat. ”

Specialists were soon sent to Buenos Aires, where there were not only missile specialists from the Luftwaffe and the Naval Armaments Agency, but also air combat specialists from the Luftwaffe and naval aviation, among whom was Rudolf. Feng. Major Heinsberg-Hersmann and Walter. Major Novotny.

In addition, the Navy and the Air Force Armament Bureau have each dispatched a ground-to-air missile test team to prepare for the deployment of two ground-to-air missile systems in Buenos Aires for actual combat firing.

The ground-to-air, ship-to-air and air-to-air missile systems being developed in Germany have a variety of guidance options, including radio remote control, which is controlled by a manipulator on the ground through visual observation; There are three major categories, such as radar guidance and infrared guidance. In addition, in order to increase the killing range of the missile, all anti-aircraft missiles currently under development are equipped with radio proximity fuses, and all have high-power warheads. Therefore, the missile does not have to hit the target directly, as long as the enemy aircraft is within 50 meters of the missile, the warhead can be detonated and shot down.

……

William. Leahy and Ernest. King arrived at the White House in a hurry, and even Wallace was shocked by the brilliance of both of them.

"William, Ernest, any good news?" Wallace asked.

"Yes." Ernest. Admiral Kim placed several black-and-white photographs on the desk in front of the president.

Wallace looked down, and what appeared in the photo appeared to be a military port, and several rows of large and small warships were moored on the sea of the military port.

"It's ...... The fleet of the Germans? Where are they? Wallace asked.

"It's the naval fleet of New Asbania," said Ernest. Kim replied, "The photos were taken by an F-13 ultra-long-range reconnaissance aircraft at the Buenos Aires military port." ”

William. Raisi added: "President, our ASM-N-2 'Bat' radar-guided gliding bomb has just passed the live-fire target acceptance and is ready for actual combat. The Joint Pacific-Atlantic Fleet Command proposes to use ASM-N-2 Bat radar-guided gliding bombs to attack the fleet inside the port of Buenos Aires. ”

"Radar-guided gliding bombs?" Wallace was very satisfied when he heard the rather lofty name, "Can you destroy the enemy's fleet?" ”

"It doesn't have to be eliminated...... Most of them can't be eliminated," William. "But a win is guaranteed...... Before the November 6 general election polling day! ”

Election Day for the President of the United States is the first Monday in November of the election year, and in 1944, the day was November 6. If the U.S. military can achieve some seemingly good victories before this day, it will undoubtedly be a huge positive for the election results of the Democratic Party.

"Good!" President Wallace was very pleased with the attitude of the Navy - it was an attitude to get a victory for the Democrats by November 6 that could be boasted of! It's an ass problem!

Wallace went on to say, "I hope that the Navy and Army Air Forces will soon achieve an inspiring victory." ”

"Of course," Ernest said. Kim and William. Leahy replied at the same time.

William. "B-24 bombers equipped with ASM-N-2 'Bat' radar-guided gliding bombs are now in place and ready for air strikes," Raisi added. ”

Wallace nodded: "What about the situation on land?" Is the attack on Santiago still going well? ”

"It went very well." William. "General Eisenhower reported this morning that his troops have now advanced outside of San Diego," Leahy said. ”

"Oh?" President Wallace laughed, "That's wonderful...... I think the American soldiers will be able to liberate Santiago, the capital of Chile, by November 6, right? ”

"I'm afraid it's going to be difficult." William. Leahy's brow furrowed slightly. While the president of the United States does not have to be very proficient in military affairs, Wallace is also too layman.

Santiago is the capital of Chile! How could the Germans give up so easily? The reason why the U.S. military is going well now is that the Germans are shrinking their defenses, and after the Germans shrink their defenses, Santiago will become difficult to overcome.

And it's already October 23rd, and it's only two weeks until November 6th, which is not enough time to complete the siege deployment, how can it be possible to liberate Santiago?

"Alright then, encirclement is fine." Wallace did not insist on his demands, "I hope to hear good news from the Navy and Army by November 6." ”
