930 Battle of Jutland (5)

Swift enough to be barely caught by the naked eye, the speeding anti-ship missile skimmed across the surface and hit the bow of the battleship Marnes, the flagship of Hail Lansing's ship. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 In order to deal with large ships of more than 10,000 tons, the INFO YJ-12 heavy anti-ship missile uses a special armor-piercing warhead, which can penetrate more than 400 mm of homogeneous armor and then explode inside the hull. Its high-explosive warhead is equivalent to the power of 500 kg of TNT, which is capable of effectively destroying the interior of the ship's hull.

With one hit, almost half of the bow blew up the anti-ship missile, and the commander of the German fleet, Hellansing, who was standing on the bridge, was even more shaken, and it was the people around him who supported him to prevent him from falling.

From where he stood, he could clearly see the bow that had been completely twisted and deformed, and the explosion had even torn off the deck armor of the bow, as terrifying as being bitten by some deep sea troll.

Haierlansing was discouraged, and he muttered, "What kind of terrible weapon is this, what is this?!" The Tang people actually left this kind of thing to use now! ”

Although it was already clear to Europeans that the Tang people had a weapon called a missile, like ammunition with eyes, which could accurately hit the target. But Europeans generally feel that the range of this weapon is not very long, and the power is not too great, and it is useful against aluminum-skinned aircraft, but it is not so effective on the ground and on the sea.

This is actually to blame the Russians, the Russian Black Sea Fleet was wiped out by the Datang Navy more than a month ago, in fact, a large number of aviation forces have been used to use anti-ship missiles, but the Russians are not clear about the narrative, and most of the people present were also detained by the Tang Army, so Europe does not know much about the inside story of anti-ship missiles.

And the anti-ship missiles, which appeared almost out of thin air, worked so well against large warships that the Germans completely lost any belief in victory.

Their psychological activities are actually very logical, the anti-ship missiles launched by the bombers of the Datang Air Force only sent two waves, more than a dozen, and the two aviation regiments of the H-6 carried 144 heavy anti-ship missiles, which only hit one-tenth, the Germans have sunk two light battleships, three have been wounded, of which the two most powerful battleships of the Marens Leader class have been injured a lot, and the Germanic Ambition has even flown two turrets in front and rear.

Ahead of the H-6, 24 heavy fighters carrying YJ-8 anti-ship missiles of Datang Naval Airlines had already flown within the visual range of the German naval fleet.

"Enemy attack!" The Germans shouted at the top of their throats, their voices tinged with desperation.

The main target of the Flying Leopard was not the German battleships, although the YJ-8 was able to penetrate the armor of the battleship after testing, but the main target of the YJ-8 was the German cruisers.

Each fighter fired two YJ-8s, targeting the same German cruiser, and the German ships were in this environment, but they had no counter-attacking targets. The whistling anti-ship missile simply hit its own target and tore a gaping hole in the position above the waterline of the cruiser of the German Navy.

The Germans were desperately trying to manage the damage, but the Datang Naval Aviation fighters were also constantly projecting anti-ship missiles at them, and although the power of the YJ-8 was relatively small, it was enough to cause substantial damage to a cruiser. The YJ-8 is not like the small and medium-sized anti-ship missiles such as Exocet and Harpoon in the other plane, which are specially designed to deal with modern ships, and its combat target is a medium and large armored ship of about 10,000 tons, and the main way to sink the ship is to open a hole for the enemy ship in the lowest possible position, and cause explosion and destruction in the internal compartment, thereby prompting a large amount of seawater to pour in, and eventually sinking the enemy ship.

It is true that not all anti-ship missiles can hit the target, and even if the Flying Leopard fighters launched missiles around the German battleship within almost visual range, some missiles did not hit due to technical reasons or mistakes. Even so, the Datang Navy was still able to guarantee three out of four shots, which caused huge trouble to the Germans.

And the H-6, the most threatening in the sky, also continued to launch a new wave of heavy anti-ship missiles at the German fleet, and these bombers attacked quite cautiously and meticulously, firing only eight missiles per wave. The main factor in avoiding a saturation attack was because the Tang people did not want to waste precious ammunition, and in order to carry out this battle, the Tang army specially replenished more than 40 missiles to Belgium, all of which were airlifted by transport planes, and it was also difficult and dangerous along the way, and it was intercepted by many waves of the EU Air Force, so it can be said that every missile is not easy.

In the case of high cost and difficult replenishment, the Datang Air Force does not want to waste ammunition, so each missile must play its own role and pursue higher efficiency and destruction.

This wave of anti-ship missiles hit seven rounds again, a Nassau-class battleship has been completely destroyed, the explosion of the ammunition depot and the destruction of the main gun have turned it into waste, although the hole is above the waterline, there is no sign of much sinking, but the entire hull began to ignite a raging fire, and at the same time, more than half of the sailors of the whole ship were killed and wounded, and even the strength to carry out damage management is not complete.

The most aggrieved thing is that the Germans don't know how to deal with it at all, and the Datang bombers that launched missiles dozens of kilometers away, they can't even detect them by radar, because they exceed the detection range of their radar. The Germans could not deal with the flying leopards that were extremely fast and flew and attacked outside the range of the anti-aircraft fire of these ships. The low-flying Flying Leopard pilots flew towards the side of the enemy ship, then dropped the anti-ship missiles horizontally, and then quickly pulled up or turned, all the way out of the range of the Germans, who really had nothing to do.

Even if there are warships that want to get the position of attack by moving, these warships cannot run faster than the planes, and there are constantly warships that are seriously damaged and lose their combat capability.

After the bomb dropping, the 24 HNA Flying Leopards were considered to have completed their mission, quickly left the airspace over this sea area, returned to the high altitude, and turned into escort fighters of bombers. The attack of this one naval regiment alone sank 6 cruisers and 2 frigates, and damaged 2 cruisers and 1 frigate.

Suddenly, it seemed that the entire German Navy was shrouded in smoke and explosions, and the Don Army brought the destruction to their heads personally. What frightened the Germans even more was that the attack of the Don Army was only the beginning. (To be continued.) )
