From time to time, some planes were blown up by volleys, or fell from the air with black smoke, plunging headlong into the sea, and some were beaten into the air and disintegrated, and the pilots did not know whether they were alive or dead, and fell into the sea. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The pilots of the US army were also equipped with parachutes, while the pilots of the Japanese army did not have a parachute at all, and fell directly into the water from a high altitude, and those with the wrong posture fell directly into several knots, and those who did not fall to death would also fall into serious injuries and then vomit blood and die.

Anyway, the mortality rate in these falling into the water is not small, and in the end, if you don't fall to death, you will drown, and very few can be salvaged.

When the fighters were fighting with each other, the bombers and torpedo planes in their rear all bypassed the battlefield of the fighters and prepared to go to their respective rear.

The Japanese also divided a part to intercept the American troops, but even so, the Japanese still had the advantage.

In terms of the number of aircraft carriers, Japan has more aircraft carriers than the US military, and the quality is also higher, and the number of carrier-based aircraft is also higher than that of the US military. Therefore, the carrier-based aircraft fleet of the US military fell not only by one or two points, but by many, many more.

The F2A buffalo that was beaten badly, was chased by Japanese planes and ran around, this carrier-based aircraft named the 99 type by the Japanese Navy, in terms of appearance and other aspects, and the zero type is very like, and the design inside is not much different from the zero type, but it is thickened and reinforced in the fuel tank, and in other places, it is still aluminum and magnesium, the kind that hits it. Airlighters, fighters in lighters.

When the planes in the sky were circling and fighting, the battleship cruisers below seemed to be a little idle, and a few miles away on the Yamato, all the anti-aircraft guns were ready, but the 460mm main gun, I don't know what to do, the muzzle of the gun was facing the front, raised high, and the lookout on the mast, looking ahead, looking for the enemy.

In addition to the battleships, there was also a large circle of cruisers and destroyers, all of which seemed to have nothing to do, and the commander-in-chief of the navy, Sanben Fifty-six, also set out in a squadron, right on the flagship, on an inconspicuous cruiser, which, unlike other cruisers, was filled with various antennas, all of which were used to contact the fleet.

Those who are familiar with the art of war know very well that those aircraft carriers and battleships are easy to attract fire, while cruisers like him will be ignored and can live longer by keeping a low profile.

On the flagship, Yamamoto Isoroku ordered that except for the aircraft carrier formation, all the other warships should move forward to find the American fleet and have a decisive battle.

In addition to aircraft carriers, the US fleet is also advancing, and the USS Wyoming, the USS New York, the USS Nevada, the USS Texas, the USS Oklahoma and other battleships are all moving forward, and these battleships are all transferred from the Atlantic Fleet, and many of them have served in the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic, because they went to the Atlantic, thus escaping the disaster of Pearl Harbor.

And the USS Pennsylvania, USS Arizona, USS New Mexico, USS Idaho, USS Tennessee, USS California, etc., all sank at Pearl Harbor.

Speaking of which, the Tennessee was also unlucky, originally he stopped at the port of San Pedro Base in California, but participated in exercises in Hawaii before Pearl Harbor, and then stopped at Pearl Harbor. After that, he was miserable, and after eating a 500-pound bomb and three 93 torpedoes from Japan, they were completely scrapped, and they could only be sold to the shipyard as scrap iron.

On the Japanese side, in addition to the Yamato, which carried 460mm guns, there were two battleships of the Nagato-class, two of the Ise class, two of the Fuso class, four of the Kongo-class, and one of the Kawachi-class Settsu (ejaculation / sei?). The author is polluted), a total of 12 battleships, almost all the battleships of the combined fleet of the Japanese Navy, which shows the determination of the Japanese army this time.

Among them, the Yamato was originally the flagship, but the three books fifty-six were cautious, moved to the cruiser, and hung behind the Yamato, which looked like the small tail of the Yamato, which was completely inconspicuous.

Not much to say about the other cruiser destroyers, there are hundreds of them on both sides combined, too many.

At about 10 o'clock in the morning, the air battle was nearing its end, and the US fighters suffered heavy losses, almost completely annihilated, and the Japanese fighters lost less than half. Having almost wiped out the American fighters, they turned around and went for the American bombers and torpedo planes.

Torpedo planes and bombers, which had successfully penetrated from the interception of Japanese fighters, hurried towards the Japanese Combined Fleet.

Carrying a full load of bombers and torpedo planes in speed, they were completely outmatched by the light Japanese fighters and were quickly overtaken.

However, at the speed of the aircraft, it soon reached the sky above the Japanese fleet.

The US bombing squadron was divided into two groups, one group headed for the moving fleet, and they mainly used torpedoes to go toward targets such as the Yamato, which were large and slow-moving, and the other group was mainly bombers, flying towards the aircraft carriers far behind, and the aerial bombs he carried could not directly blow up the aircraft carriers, but were aimed at destroying the decks of the aircraft carriers so that their carrier-based planes could not take off and land.

However, destroyers were placed around the Japanese aircraft carriers and equipped with a large number of anti-aircraft weapons. After seeing the planes of the 41st Group Army a long time ago, Japan also paid more and more attention to air defense.

When the Kaga was bombing Guangdong, the carrier-based planes were subjected to a dense air defense array of the 41 st Group Army, and the result was that they suffered heavy losses and did not gain anything.

Therefore, when the US planes rushed over, the Japanese anti-aircraft fire instantly filled the sky, and although the performance of the Japanese anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns was not very good, they could not withstand the large number of them.

“no！” A U.S. pilot screamed at the sight of the flames ejected from the ship below, and his plane was engulfed in a near-detonation bomb, then reduced to wreckage and fell from the sky.

The planes that rushed through the air defense immediately found their position and began to drop bombs, and the oval-shaped billowing bombs under the belly of the aircraft, or the long and thick torpedoes, broke away from the hook and headed towards the target.

Carrier-based bombers cannot carry a large number of bombs like strategic bombers, and usually only carry a high-powered aerial bomb, dive bomb at the target, and after throwing the bomb, they immediately run away, and the same is true for torpedo planes, which can only carry one heavy torpedo and leave after throwing it away.

The "boom~" bomb was thrown off, and the Yamato, who was the target, suddenly turned around, so that the bomber's bomb missed and was thrown into the water, but the water pressure still detonated the bomb and exploded a huge splash, but it also scared the Japanese troops on Yamato, which would have been thrown on their battleship.

After dropping the bomb, the plane drew a 90-degree arc, and the pilot barely pulled the plane up, but flew head-on towards a cruiser behind Yamato, which was the flagship of the Combined Fleet.

In the face of the sudden rushing plane, the Japanese troops on the ship immediately operated anti-aircraft weapons to intercept it, and the bomber was unfortunately cut in two by a barrage of 20mm bullets. (To be continued.) )
