Chapter 233: Catapult takes off

USS Kitty Hawk.

The entire fleet is sailing in the eastern part of the island nation, and the sea breeze blows the flag and hunts the sound.

Standing on the bridge and looking at the deck, Nathan also had an indescribable feeling.

Nima, what a soft egg, take out your rogue energy in the future!

Now, over Hokkaido, the battle was already raging, but fortunately, he had an unpredictable prophet and told Kushiro the threat in advance, and General Paul also listened to it and strengthened the defense in Kushiro, so that Kushiro was not lost, and the follow-up troops of the Soviets could not be launched.

Now, what an opportunity!

War breaks out? Now, almost everyone thinks that the Soviets are in full swing, that the Soviet Union has become the most powerful alliance of states, and that the United States, because of the Vietnam War, thinks that it is no longer able to challenge the hegemony of the Soviet Union and is on the defensive.

In fact, the Soviets are just looking back at the annual military parade on Red Square, the old guys on Lenin's tomb, as if this empire is going into decline, and the contradictions in the Soviet Union are a lot of problems, and think about the defection of the Alert last year, which is a sign of the future of the Soviet Union.

And now the Soviets still want to provoke a war!

It can be said that if Hokkaido is occupied, it will be beneficial to the Soviets, and if the island country is occupied and the advanced electronics industry of the island country is obtained, then the world, like in that book, will probably be planted all over the world with red flags.

However, if you come by yourself, how can you let history develop in this direction?

His own arrival is to turn the situation around.

Now, it is necessary to beat the Soviets painfully and frightened, and let them know that the island country will not be so easy to compromise, after all, the Soviets do not take advantage of this war, so the conflict cannot turn into a full-scale war.

If, if it really became a third world war, the Soviet Union would be even more finished, and now the Soviet Union will not be rich in domestic materials, and once a full-scale war starts, then the light industry in the Soviet Union will be abolished, and they will have to starve, will the current Soviets still be able to tighten their belts and fight the war as they did in the forties?

Of course it can't be, it was the German soldiers coming to the city, it was the Great Patriotic War, and besides, the Soviet Union had not been established for many years at that time, and the bearded man was so authoritarian, and now, if the Soviet Union began to go hungry, it would not be long before the country began to engage in opposition movements.

Don't be afraid of war, don't be afraid of provoking conflicts, since you've started to do it, just do it more thoroughly.

"Attention, the command gives the order." Just then, Colonel Petro Bori came to the flight preparation room: "We, the Kitty Hawk battle group, began to move north. ”

To the north, is it to intercept the sea formations of the Soviets?

Nathan felt choked.

Sure enough, Colonel Petro Bori continued: "The task, to protect the security over the Nemuro Peninsula and prevent the landing of the Soviet Navy. ”

Just to block the landing, is that enough of a soft egg? Why not just sink their landing ships? Even if those ships are fishing boats, merchant ships, and now they are doing the work of military ships, they are all transporting troops, and they still want to leave it alone? Only wait for the other party to land before you stop it?

It's a shame.

Nathan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, but he couldn't help it, after all, he was not a decision-maker, and he had to obey orders.

"Understood."

"The 51 Fighter Squadron, which is responsible for securing the airspace of the fleet, the 111 Fighter Squadron, which went to the Nemuro Peninsula, is responsible for protecting our attack formations, and the 27th and 52nd Squadron of Attack Aircraft, which is responsible for conducting attacks." Colonel Petro Bori assigned the task, and this time, almost the entire aircraft carrier was dispatched.

"What about the Air Force?" Nathan asked suddenly.

Now, this level of dispatch is already on a very large scale, and the order was given by General Paul, who is the general of the Air Force, at this time, General Paul does not plan to use the Air Force? Directly let your own navy go?

"The Air Force has to deal with possible retaliation from the Soviets." Colonel Petro Bori said.

The transport planes of the Soviets, more than a dozen were shot down in central Hokkaido, are the Soviets willing to give up? Today is destined to be a day of fighting, and I am afraid that the territorial air defense force and air force deployed by the Soviets on Sakhalin Island will be killed!

The Air Force is also on standby, waiting at any time.

Well, that's enough for that, and Nathan is speechless.

"Okay, let's do it now!" After Colonel Petro Bori gave the order, the entire Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier entered intense preparations.

The entire formation, facing the sea breeze, began to accelerate, and black smoke came out of the chimney of the Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier, and the steam turbines operating at full power accelerated the aircraft carrier to thirty knots.

The two catapults in the bow of the ship, and the two catapults on the beveled deck, are all ready for high-intensity ejection.

The first to take off was the A-52 of the 6th Attack Aircraft Squadron.

Although it looks like a big-headed fly, this attack aircraft is very ugly, but its cost-effectiveness ratio is quite good, and it has been in service on aircraft carriers for many years.

At this time, as the white smoke on the deck filled, one after another A-6 attack planes quickly left the flight deck.

And after the previous one was ejected, the latter one was quickly put into position, and at this time, the real sortie efficiency of the US aircraft carrier was vividly reflected.

While operating a large aircraft carrier, the Americans cried poorly, saying that a large aircraft carrier is too expensive, or a small aircraft carrier is suitable. While using the catapult, they said that the jumping deck was good.

The Americans were fooled like this, and as a result, Britain was fooled into building the invincible class, the chicken ribs of the chicken ribs, if it hadn't been for the weak Argentina, history would definitely have been rewritten, and the Soviet Union also made nondescript heavy aircraft-carrying cruisers, only the Americans, while crying poor, while developing, nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and later generations engaged in all-electric aircraft carriers.

The jumping deck cannot be compared with this kind of catapult aircraft carrier, four take-off points, in just a few minutes, the entire 52 A-6 attack aircraft of the entire 6 attack aircraft squadron were ejected and taken off.

If it is a leaping deck, now it is only a maximum of four fighters to take off, and the efficiency of sortie is at least four times worse!

At the same time, with the continuous ejection and the consumption of valuable steam, the speed of the aircraft carrier is constantly decreasing, and by the time the entire squadron catapults and takes off, the speed of the aircraft carrier has dropped to 27 knots.

Then, the 27th Squadron of Attack Aircraft also began to eject, and when they ejected, the speed of the aircraft carrier was reduced to 22 knots.

At this time, Nathan walked unhurriedly towards his plane, and the aircraft carrier had to wait a few minutes before taking off due to excessive steam consumption.

Actually, if it takes off with full afterburner, the Tomcat will be fine, it's just a waste of more fuel, and now, wait a few minutes, and the aircraft carrier will recover.

It's time for your own side to go out, this time to the sky, if there is still a battle, it will be even cooler.

For a fighter pilot, eagle strikes in the sky is his ideal.
