Chapter 636: Come to Show Down
"Carrier battle group?"
It was the first thought that popped into Amanda's mind after hearing about the report.
Ever since Saratoga received the hull dismantling at the Imperial Palace, Koji has been promoting a story to other shipwives.
In the past, the Admirals of the Azure Star Navy did not have a clear positioning of aircraft carriers as the core of the battle, and most of the aircraft carriers were used in formations like battleships.
If you send a fleet of battleships, then I will send a fleet of aircraft carriers to find you from afar and then concentrate a huge number of carrier-based aircraft to hit you, in Avalon's words, to fly kites.
However, this often results in the destruction of the aircraft carrier fleet once it is close to it, and it is unable to fight back.
Over the years, battleships have come up with several tactics to circumvent the carrier fleet.
As a result, in most cases, the battle loss ratio between the aircraft carrier and the battleship mother is that the big sisters have the advantage.
Therefore, in the eyes of the public, battleships are more suitable than aircraft carriers to play the main role on the battlefield.
Koji proposed the concept of an aircraft carrier battle group.
He said that the Admirals had been wrong in using the aircraft carrier in the past.
One is the aircraft carrier group.
One is an aircraft carrier battle group.
In his interpretation, these are two different things.
To be honest, Amanda still doesn't quite understand why carrier groups and carrier battle groups that used to have other warships to provide cover and support are different.
But Amanda remembered one thing: those with many aircraft carriers and few escort ships are called aircraft carrier groups, while those with few aircraft carriers or even many escort ships with a single aircraft carrier are called aircraft carrier battle groups.
This time Avalon appeared at sea with an aircraft carrier and four destroyers.
That should be the aircraft carrier battle group.
Then Amanda couldn't help but wonder in her heart again.
The task of the escort ship is to protect the capital ship and cooperate with the actions of the main force.
To put it bluntly, the role of the escort ship is to run errands for the big sisters, if something goes wrong, the main forces can't rush in, then let the escort ships go over to take a look, and if they find that it is the enemy's main force, the big sisters rush over immediately.
When it comes to battle, the role that the escort ship can play is minimal, at most it is to sell itself to attract firepower to reduce the pressure on the big sister.
Therefore, the number of capital ships must be more than the escort ships running errands in order to give full play to the strength of a fleet.
And Koji's statement is completely reversed.
There are more escort ships than capital ships.
And it's not a little more, two points are a lot more.
The main force of an aircraft carrier, a dozen or even dozens of escort ships of various purposes?
How much combat power can such a fleet have, and when it enters the battle, more than a dozen escort ships on the side watch the aircraft carrier fight alone?
Also, in Koji's statement, the escort battleship is not called an escort battleship, but a frigate.
Isn't it true that escort ships and corvettes are the same thing?
In the original world, there was a big difference in the meaning of the two words.
The escort warship is to accompany you on the voyage, and once she has her own mission, she can leave you at any time and go first.
A corvette is literally a personal bodyguard guarding your side, a meat shield that can even block your gun in battle.
However, in the world of Azure Star, there is no difference between them, and the little sister of the ship mother is completely obedient to the sister of the ship mother, and when she fights, she also devotes herself to creating opportunities for her sister.
Both Amanda and Ou Huangfu can understand the truth.
Multiple frigates can better protect the aircraft carrier as the core.
As for Koji's claim that multiple frigates can make aircraft carriers more effective in evading enemy detection, everyone is skeptical.
It can't be said that you are a small ship and the enemy can't see it, your ship is a small but large number of mixed fleets are easy to spot.
At that time, Koji told a lot, and Amanda believed that he revealed more information about the European Imperial Palace.
But neither Amanda nor the European Royal Mansion accepted it too much.
The main reason is still on the issue of "how to bring into play the combat effectiveness of a conventional fleet with a fleet of few aircraft carriers or even a single aircraft carrier."
Obviously, the Ou Imperial Mansion has raised so many drawbacks of the so-called aircraft carrier battle group, Amanda didn't expect that the admiral of Avalon was still stubborn, and really let his sister-in-law dare to go out with two destroyers.
Amanda suddenly wanted to call Avalon.
He wanted to tell the man in Avalon: "The location of your aircraft carrier has been discovered by me, and the relationship between the two of us is not bad, otherwise even if your Avalon ship is very powerful, it will not be able to stop me from being surrounded by heavy troops."
Maybe you can see the incredulous face of the guy who has always had a hippie smile.
Avalon considered himself superior to the other Admirals.
It does surpass a lot of people.
Amanda admits inwardly that Avalon is in many ways above her own town.
But Ni Haoer obviously underestimated him Amanda, and didn't realize that Amanda had also reached the point of looking outward.
On the sea facing the capital of Avalon, the Amanda Town Keeper has placed several submarines as eyeliners, and the information on Saratoga's infestation comes from one of the Dead Reservoir Water Boats.
As Amanda just said.
Thankfully, he didn't have a bad relationship with the capital of Avalon.
Under normal circumstances, a fleet should be placed near the border between the two towns at all times.
In other words, if that were the case, the Amanda Warden could take advantage of the Saratoga of Avalon's lone attack at any time to detain her or simply ...... Sink her.
"Saratoga really only brought two evictions...... Frigate? ”
After thinking about it, Amanda felt that there seemed to be something in it that he hadn't noticed.
Saratoga knows it, not only is Avalon's only second aircraft carrier mother, but also Ni Haoer's sister-in-law.
In the past, the aircraft carrier lady had been undergoing transformations, and now it seems that it is finally time for her to be launched, and there is no reason to go out with only two destroyers when Saratoga's combat strength has not yet recovered.
"That's exactly what Sister Tiger Shark reported."
Said the replica ship of prestige, said Amanda Zhenfu Siren Battle Cruiser Niang.
"According to the analysis of the Tiger Shark sister's report, the two destroyers should be Avalon's Ray and Dawn, one of them was exploring the way ahead, and the other was escorting Saratoga, and no other people were found around Saratoga."
"No......" Amanda jumped in a heartbeat.
Saratoga he knows.
But Avalon's sister-in-law wasn't too active because she was in the transformation.
Dawn, Ring, Thunder, and Lightning, the four Avalon Cruiser Knight-class destroyers are different.
The Admirals near the Second Triangle Strait in Dhaka knew that the Avalon Four Lori had always been inseparable and almost never separated.
Ray and Hibiki appeared next to Saratoga, which must have meant that the other two were also in the fleet.
Saratoga's frigates are more than just two destroyers.
But...... Four?
What else did Koji say in the past?
Carrier battle groups are not conventional fleets and cannot adopt conventional queue formations.
The formation of the conventional fleet is concentrated firepower, whether it is the arrangement of multiple main forces or the dense formation, it is for the sake of being able to exert stronger firepower output.
You can think of it as a heavy cavalry.
No matter how "heavy" you are, you can't be invincible with a single heavy cavalry.
Combat effectiveness can be formed only when a group of heavy cavalry charges at the same time, and the battleship fleet is the maritime version of this tactic.
Koji's proposal to let the aircraft carrier frigates be scattered is also a reason why everyone disagrees with him.
Wouldn't it be a brain pit if it wasn't the main battleship in the first place, and then dispersed?
The enemy's reconnaissance only found a frigate on the periphery of your aircraft carrier battle group, and they felt that your main force was not here?
!
I'll just ask you what is the point of putting a dozen ships in a circle with a diameter of several hundred kilometers.
The enemy can't find you, but how can you attack the enemy if you are so scattered, gourd baby saves grandpa one by one?
The corners of the handsome blonde guy Amanda's mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
I was almost deceived by you.
"Help me contact Avalon."
"Yes!"
……
"Hey, you're looking for me?"
Koji looked strange when the sun came out of the west.
Among Avalon's three neighbors, Sister Sharona and Sister Camelia often brush up on their presence.
The two admirals already have Avalon's database as their own, and sometimes they have to connect with Koji when they see a funny video.
I don't know if it's the reason why the same sex repels and the opposite sex attracts.,Blonde handsome guys rarely take the initiative to contact Koji.。
The Amanda Borough also has access to the Avalon Network database.
In other words, whether it is a good-looking movie or some information specially released by Avalon, he can check it.
But Amanda basically watches silently and doesn't even leave a comment.
If you don't see his access IP, you won't know he's been there.
"You're not in the Guard's Mansion?"
Amanda in the video seems to be smiling, not smiling, and is so handsome that she has no friends.
Koji glanced back at the bridge room in Saratoga behind him, and understood what Amanda had guessed.
"Guess?"
Koji, who rolled his eyes, said.
"Heh, you should be on your Saratoga hull, right?"
"Oh, yes, I know that this is my sister-in-law's hull, why don't you guess it's my wife's."
"I still know where Saratoga is now, I only know who she is with her, but I don't know that you are ...... too"
"Your tiger shark said that."
"What?"
The handsome blonde man's face was stunned for a moment.
Amanda knew that Koji's mind was spinning very fast.
It is not surprising to be able to guess that Saratoga's whereabouts were exposed, and to react to the fact that there was a submarine guarding Amanda's town nearby.
But if you even know the name, it's obviously not something you can guess.
"How?"
Koji raised an eyebrow.
"So you're looking for me to show off?"
"You mean to say that you can bully my sister-in-law at any time?"
"So confidently saying that you know who Gaga is following around you, that is, you already know that Xiaoxiang thunderbolt?"
"Yes, my sister-in-law went out, and she only brought four little Lori's with her, and I, the Admiral, were also on her hull, so if something really happened, it would be a big event for me Avalon."
The more Koji continued, the more a handsome guy in the video looked stinky.
In the end, it was already dripping gloomily.
"You already knew?" He asked.
"Know what?" Lord Admiral of Avalon smiled.
Isn't that nonsense?
It's really paper when the aircraft carrier battle group is papery.
Without any real skills, Koji dared to let his cute sister-in-law go out like this.
Not to mention that the Tiger Shark submarine is on Gaga's surveillance network, and Amanda's every move is closely watched.
