Chapter 61, the tragic carrier-based aircraft

Underwater, among the silent submarines, one quietly surfaced, turned on the radar, and searched for the condition of the Japanese aircraft carrier fleet. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Radar searches showed that the Japanese had five more ships floating on the water, moving slowly.

"How can there be so many, it stands to reason that there should be only one or two ships left at most?" The commander in the No. 1 submarine received the news and was a little confused.

"I guess it was wounded, not sunk."

"Well, it's also possible." The Commander nodded.

"And what's next?"

"Catch up and sink them all."

"Yes."

In the sky, the Japanese carrier-based plane was on its way back, and when it was approaching Elizabeth Reef, the pilot of the plane noticed that something was wrong below, and some sharp-eyed Japanese soldiers saw several aircraft carriers half-tilted on the water, and the hull was still emitting black smoke.

What's going on? These pilots all had this question in their heads, but looking at the situation, the fools knew that they had been attacked, but where was the enemy attacking the aircraft carrier, and they did not find any non-friendly forces.

There are still a few boats that can still drive, but it looks like the lower half of their bodies are all flooded, the speed is extremely slow, and it is estimated that they are also injured, but they still look positive, and some pilots want to land, but they are refused, but the seaplane is very convenient, and it stops directly on the water.

"Moximoxi, call the mothership." On some planes equipped with radio stations, pilots called the aircraft carriers and asked them what was going on.

When they learned that they had been attacked by an enemy submarine and that the submarine was still somewhere around, the pilots immediately flew their planes to search the surface at low altitude, hoping to find the target.

Although their behavior was good, the result was futile, because the submarine was still coming from a long way away, along with the Japanese destroyers.

When they received the telegram that the aircraft carrier was attacked by a submarine, the whole person was not good, especially the captain, who felt that his life was gloomy, not to mention being scolded by the commander and wearing small shoes, after this matter was over, they would definitely be dismissed.

The captains of these destroyers scolded the operators of the submarines in their hearts, hating them in their hearts, and at the same time asked the destroyers to speed up and rush to the aircraft carriers with all their might.

The submerged submarine was traveling at a speed of 22 knots while loading self-guided torpedoes into torpedo launchers, all of which had previously been fired at low-cost (relatively speaking) Yu-1 torpedoes. And now with the self-guided torpedo, although it hurts a little, if the Japanese aircraft carrier is sunk, it will also be earned.

Because the Japanese aircraft carrier is now moving, although the speed is very slow, as the so-called mistake is a thousand miles, firing an ordinary torpedo, as long as the deviation is a little bit, it will miss, so it is wiser to choose a self-guided torpedo.

Locking on the remaining aircraft carriers, five submarines equipped with self-guided torpedoes were immediately launched, and these five torpedoes swam towards the Japanese aircraft carrier like fish in water, constantly changing their orientation halfway, so that they were always aimed at the target.

The torpedo was moving fast in the water at a depth of 1 meter above the surface, and the white body of the projectile was hidden by the white spray that was set off.

In the sky, the planes searching for submarines flew close to the water, their eyes glued to the water, as if they were about to find a reason.

However, they did not find the submarine, but the torpedo did.

After spotting the torpedo, the pilot immediately piloted the plane and opened fire on the torpedoes in the water. However, after the bullet was fired into the water, the huge drag did not allow the bullet to fly half a meter away, so it could not pose a threat to the torpedo at all.

The reaction of the plane attracted the attention of the Japanese troops on the ship, and they immediately turned around and opened fire on the torpedo.

However, there are a few close defense guns, and the number is too small to have any effect.

The operators of the aircraft carrier tried their best to turn the aircraft carrier, but the hull was too huge and it was very difficult to turn, and then in the frightened eyes of the Japanese troops, the torpedo hit the aircraft carrier fiercely, and the explosion again aggravated the injury of the aircraft carrier, and soon began to tilt.

The most panicked thing was the Japanese troops on the carrier-based aircraft, the aircraft carrier sank, how did they land? They don't have pontoons and can't land on the water.

The panicked pilots, at a loss, flew around in the sky, could not find the landing site, and the only thing that awaited them was to run out of fuel and crash into the sea.

If they had enough fuel, they could have flown back to Australia and landed at an army airfield, but unfortunately, they could only run one round trip with fuel, and they didn't have a drop tank.

On the aircraft carrier, the flagship of the fleet, the commander of the fleet gave the pilot an order to make a forced landing before the aircraft carrier sank, that is, to force a forced landing on the sea. Now for them, that's the only way to do it.

Although there is a certain loss in the forced landing, and the plane is definitely not guaranteed, but they have no way except to make a forced landing, and when the fuel is exhausted, they still have to force the landing.

The Japanese planes did not put down the landing gear, and the landing gear was useless, but it would break due to the resistance of the water, which would cause even more damage to the fuselage. Without putting the landing gear, the smooth belly touches the water surface to reduce damage.

In desperation, the pilots had no choice but to force landing, and their plane was not equipped with a parachute, otherwise it would be so troublesome to jump directly into the parachute.

There were a few Japanese troops trying, although the plane was successfully parked on the water, but at this time the plane was about to fall apart after the turbulence of the waves, or it had already fallen apart, if the angle was not mastered, it was easy to destroy the plane and kill people, so the danger was not small.

At this time, a pilot flew the plane to a height of several meters above the water, flew at a low speed, and suddenly, he jumped up from the cabin, jumped into the water, lost control of the plane, and then fell into the water.

This method is good, and many people immediately choose this method after seeing it, giving up the plane and jumping into the water. Of course, there are also people who are not well controlled, and they can't jump out of the plane in an instant, and as a result, they are carried by the plane and planted in the water, and half of their lives are gone.

Originally, there were hundreds of planes in the sky, but now, the whole sky is clear, and only some wreckage of the plane is left floating on the water, and those Japanese pilots are swimming hard in the water, all swimming towards Elizabeth Reef, after all, they have been soaked in the water for a long time, and it is easy to lose their strength.

At the submarine, they no longer had the signal of the aircraft carrier, indicating that their goal had been achieved and they could leave, but at this time, the Japanese destroyers rushed over, and they immediately rushed over after receiving the news of the aircraft carrier.

Because the destroyer was overhead, the submarine was silent for the time being, and after the destroyer left, it immediately turned around and ran. (To be continued.) )
