readx; Soon, after receiving the order, a squadron of fighters took off from the fifth aircraft carrier battle group, numbered 05. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ.

The establishment of the Navy and the Army Aviation is similar, belonging to the type of large establishment, and at the beginning it was mainly considered to be able to scare the enemy.

In other words, it is to increase some color when we are in the midst of propaganda, for example, we only sent one squadron to sink the fighters of one division of the enemy.

In fact, the number of fighters in a squadron is not much less than that of a division, and the most basic combat unit is a group, a normal group has three fighters, and the enhanced version has four fighters.

And then up there is the squad, and the squad has five groups, that is, fifteen fighters, plus a squad leader, for a total of sixteen fighters.

At the top is the squadron, which is also composed of five squadrons, eighty fighters, plus two squadron leaders and deputy squadron leaders, which means that the normal establishment of a squadron is eighty-two fighters.

And what about the formation of the air forces of other countries? Most squadrons have only about fifteen fighters, and a brigade is forty to sixty fighters, which is not as many as a squadron on the Chinese Empire's side.

Because the Midway-class aircraft carrier can accommodate more aircraft, and the Jian-1 fighter has superior capabilities and weapons and equipment that can kill everything in seconds, we can often see torpedo bombers, fighters, reconnaissance planes, and even dive bombers and so on on the aircraft carriers of other countries.

But on the aircraft carriers of the Chinese Empire, if you don't look carefully, you can only see all the fighters, yes, it's true, it's all fighters.

Before the Chinese Sword was put into service, there were still some dreadnought dive bombers on the carrier, but now, all of them have been eliminated, and in front of Jianyi, any fighter is a floating cloud.

The aircraft carriers exchanged by Su Dao are all the final versions after modification, that is to say, an aircraft carrier can carry one hundred and thirty-seven fighters, and later Su Dao felt that it was still a little less, so he ordered to continue the modification, and there was no need to change too much, just increase the capacity of the fighters.

Miscellaneous began to study, modify, and in the end, the active aircraft carrier was converted to be able to carry one hundred and fifty-five fighters, nearly two squadrons of fighters.

Moreover, in the current situation, even if there are no reconnaissance planes, the opponent will still not be able to take advantage of them, and radar has long replaced the role of reconnaissance planes.

Fighters are all the same fighters, but carrier-based aircraft are not the same as army aviation fighters, because the army aviation has runway assistance, so there are no too strict requirements for take-off, while Hainan Airlines is not good.

First of all, the volume must be small, second, the weight must be heavier than the army aviation fighter, and third, the thrust-to-weight ratio must be larger, otherwise it will not be able to fly, so the real name of the J-1 that appeared on the aircraft carrier at this time is the J-1 C-type fighter.

The difference between the Army Aviation and the Jian-1** is whether it can carry the Chinese sword, and in general there is not much difference, but the weapon system is not the same, but the HNA is a earth-shaking change, so it is named Jian-1C.

'Buzzing ......'

Eighty-two fighters were flying in the air, and because they were not in a hurry, they did not drive to the fastest speed, but flew at a cruising speed of more than 400 kilometers, and the altitude of the flight was 6,000 meters.

Yao Qin, who has been in the army for three years, graduated from the Jinxi Air Force Academy before that, where he studied systematically for three years and can fly any type of aircraft.

After graduation, he was assigned to HNA, and the first year was to stay on land for training, and the mission was the same as that of HNA pilots, responsible for patrolling sea safety, the only difference was that the airport was different, HNA took off on an aircraft carrier, and they were on land.

In the second year, with the increase in the number of aircraft carriers and sufficient training preparations, Yao Qin's squadron was directly transferred to the No. 05 aircraft carrier of the Fifth Aircraft Carrier Battle Group to serve.

It may be a little awkward to say, an aircraft carrier can only carry 155 fighters, a squadron has 82 fighters, and the rest of the fighters cannot form a squadron, and the establishment is incomplete, and this is the most embarrassing thing.

But there is no need to think so here, because the aircraft carrier battle group is composed of two aircraft carriers, that is, he has 310 fighters, carrying a total of one group of fighters, that is, 246 fighters, and the remaining sixty-four fighters belong to escort aircraft.

In normal times, when other fighters go out to carry out missions, they do not need to be dispatched, and their task at that time is to protect the safety of the aircraft carrier, and in addition, if there are losses in the three squadrons, they will be transferred from these 64 fighters to supplement the three squadrons.

Therefore, on the aircraft carrier, they are called the reserve squadron, although they are all serious active forces, and the level is the same, but they are troops without a specific number, and if they are declared to the outside world, they can only be said to be the carrier-based aircraft squadron of the fifth aircraft carrier battle group, as for which squadron, no one knows.

After three years of hard work and a good experience of systematic learning, Yao Qin quickly stood out and began to serve as the squadron leader of the first squadron of the 163rd Brigade of the 18th Division of the Fifth Aircraft Carrier Battle Group three months ago.

Because of the different establishments, the brigade here is equivalent to a brigade-level unit, the squadron is the regiment, the squad is the battalion, the group is the company, and the individual is the platoon, because all the pilots are officers, and the lowest rank is also a second lieutenant, and most of them are lieutenants or captains.

"Hairball, how about pulling the fighter plane up to a height of seven thousand meters and looking at the line of sight."

As soon as the fighter plane entered the level flight state, Yao Qin began to command.

The weather was pretty good, and although it was January 1943, the coldest time of the day, the sun and the wind blew away the clouds and the fog on the sea.

However, as a rule of thumb, after another two or three hours, the fog will start to rise, and if they do not return within two hours, it will be very dangerous, because when they land, they will not be able to see the runway of the aircraft carrier, and they will not be able to confirm whether the fighters are aiming at the runway.

"Understood!"

Maoqiu agreed, and immediately a fighter plane broke away from the formation and climbed directly towards a height of seven thousand meters.

"Captain, the visibility has been affected a little bit compared to before, but the impact is not great, and if you look at the warship, you can still aim easily."

Furball looked at the situation on the sea through the scope and reported directly on the radio.

"Keep climbing and try it to 8,000 meters."

Yao Qin continued to order.

Taking advantage of the fact that you have not yet arrived in the war zone, you should first figure out the height of the attack that will be launched later, so as not to be busy later, giving the enemy too much time to react.

In addition, this is the first time that they have carried out a strike on a surface ship, and their confidence is somewhat lacking, and their experience is basically equal to zero. Although they had gone through a lot of training before, they were all foam boards drawn from small ships, thrown on the surface of the sea and floated, and then hit with missiles.

Although the difficulty is the same, no one dares to guarantee that the other party will dodge it, after all, there is still a big difference between target shooting and actual combat, Yao Qin does not dare to be sloppy at all, if eighty-two Chinese swords can't kill eighteen warships, it will be called a shame.

"Captain, 7,500 meters into the clouds, the best attack altitude is expected to be between 7,000 and 6,000 meters."

The hairball did not continue to pull the fighter higher, but when the fighter touched the clouds, he decisively wrote down the height of the fighter, and then lowered the height of the fighter.

Flying in the clouds is a very dangerous thing, although they have long been accustomed to it, when they are not defeated by the opponent, the clouds are even the foundation of their lives, but under normal circumstances, no one wants to fly in the clouds, and if they don't do well, they are easy to collide, which is very dangerous.

And there are also a lot of unknown things in the clouds, both to the fighter and to the pilot's body.

"Okay, I see."

Yao Qin replied, and immediately ordered Maoqiu to return to the team.

As long as the distance is detected, the next thing will be much easier, when they first contacted the missile, it was launched at an altitude of 10,000 meters, and the hit rate of the whole squadron was 30 percent, but now the altitude is basically reduced by half faster, how can this hit rate be about 50?

After more than 20 minutes of flight, the group of planes had arrived in the sky above the unknown fleet, through the scope, Yao Qin clearly saw the British flag hanging on it, and the composition of the fleet was similar to what he had guessed before, including battleships, frigates, and transport ships.

Since he had already received an order that if he was not a friend, he could directly sink it, so Yao Qin did not contact the fleet, and directly ordered the formation to disperse, and after demarcating the target for each other, Yao Qin first aimed at a small frigate.

The tonnage of this frigate is only about 2,000 tons, which is the smallest tonnage in this fleet, and proportionally speaking, it is also the most difficult to fight, but battleships and transport ships are the best to fight because of their huge size.

Subconsciously, Yao Qin gave the target to his soldiers, after all, his own skills are only known to him, if he let others fight this frigate, Yao Qin is really not sure, so, in order to avoid wasting a missile, it is better to fight it yourself.

Entering the angle, Yao Qin controlled the fighter plane to begin to dive, if you observe carefully, it is not difficult to see that the nose of the plane is sometimes up, sometimes down, sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right, when flying a distance of about a thousand meters, at this time the height from the sea surface is about 5,400 meters, Yao Qin suddenly pressed the attack button.

'Whoosh! ’

After the missile left the fuselage, it quickly dragged a long white smoke and rushed towards the frigate he was aiming at with lightning speed. (To be continued.) )
