Chapter 404: Royal Navy

"Turn on sonar! Let the frigates surround the past!! ”

Although Tom is a senior general, he is not very famous in the huge Royal Navy!

As for the reason, Britain, which has many colonies, has too large a navy!

In this era, the Royal Navy has absolutely the largest number of warships in the world!

There are almost more than 200 destroyers, more than 50 submarines, and tens of thousands of 4-engine heavy strategic bombers!

Oh yes, and 6 more aircraft carriers!

In terms of tonnage, it is nine times the tonnage of the footbasin chicken ship!

In the naval battle between Japan and Britain in the Philippine Sea, it can only be said that Yamamoto Isoroku used the strength of the national navy to take down a "local force" left behind in the colony!

And, don't forget, radar, sonar, depth charges, all invented by the British!

And the steam catapult technology on the aircraft carrier was also made by the British!

If none of the above matters, then this old industrial empire, supported by a large number of resource-rich colonies, has accumulated an economic and military industrial base over a hundred years, as well as a large number of talents, first-class shipbuilding technology, whether it is potential or stamina, all are terrifying!

In addition to the 5 Queen Elizabeth-class grandmother ships, there are also 5 R-class regressive historical wreckage ships, and the ugly 2 Nelson-class battleships. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The remaining 5 King George V-class battleships are like black technology for the current footbasin chicken.

As for the other battlecruisers, there are 2 prestige-class warships, and 1 is currently the largest warship in the world: the Admiral-class Hood!

However, under the blow of the economic crisis, the huge and terrifying Royal Navy has become the biggest historical burden of Britain.

Although many colonies have shared this burden evenly.

However, the distribution of troops, logistical supplies, and even the different battle plans in different regions, and even the rotation of the navy, the current Britain is no longer capable of completing these tasks.

Of course, there was no World War II yet, and there was no Battle of Jutland on British doorstep.

Some were just a sneak attack on the Philippines that made the British Prime Minister angry.

Britain, which is still dreaming of becoming a world hegemon, has not woken up from the dream.

Admiral Tom gave the order, and then looked at the chart and pondered.

Not only is it huge, but it also has extremely fast speed, which proves that the lone warship is not a battleship.

Most likely, a cruiser that reduced its firepower to the extreme!

Whose navy will drive a cruiser out to play?

Without the escort of destroyers and submarines, they just swaggered out to go around, isn't this looking for a fight!

Even if there is no enmity, it must be resolved!

Afterwards, just find a reason for the misshooting, and you can get through it by fooling around.

As for the weakened, it is quite possible that a fifth of the naval power of a country!

Is it worth it?

Even if you sacrifice a destroyer, it's worth it!

Admiral Tom's fleet is not huge.

A large Valiant-class light cruiser under construction in 1917 was converted into the USS Fury.

The full load displacement is about 27250 tons.

It has a total length of 39.8 meters, a width of about 27 meters, and a draft of 8.3 meters.

The output power of the main engine steam wheel: 90,000 shaft horsepower.

It has a maximum speed of 30 knots and a cruising range of 6,400 nautical miles.

Carrier-based aircraft: about 30 units.

Crew: About 800 people, including 350 air crew!

This is an unofficial aircraft carrier that is still being prepared like an old man.

It was not only an equally old battleship, but also five destroyers, five torpedo boats, and three submarines!

Of course, a cruising fleet cannot be so simple.

Like non-wartime small work ships, icebreakers, supply ships, etc., dragging and dragging for a long time.

Even if Admiral Tom's fleet is not huge, it is well equipped, even if it is a local sea encounter, it is enough to deal with any fleet in the world at present!

After all, it's so close to Ireland!

As long as it drags on for a few hours, the home fleet will definitely have enough time to get over!

More than a dozen carrier-based planes on the aircraft carrier took off first, followed by bombers roaring into the sky.

According to the news from the Eastern Fleet, it seems that the current footbasin chicken has just understood the tactics of long-range bombing!

It's funny!

The great Royal Navy will let you scum see clearly what new tactics are!

Admiral Tom smiled and ordered the aircraft carrier to stop sailing.

Although the aircraft carrier also has the main gun, if it loses its air power, it will not be pleasing at all in front of the battleship!

If an enemy plane attacks, this behemoth can be blown in two in minutes!

"The two destroyers Rafale and Storm are moving forward, and the rest of the destroyers are staying on the aircraft carrier! Battleships ready for battle! After the submarine circled, prepare for a sneak attack! ”

The speed of warships in World War II was much faster than in the future.

After all, fighting within visual range, artillery giants are king!

A little more speed, and you may be able to dodge deadly shelling!

"Master, the enemy ship has been discovered! Wo grass, here are a lot!! "People are racing, but the pirate leader is racing.

After experiencing the speed of the Villadimo command ship with a hydrofoil on the water, Cancan handed over the steering wheel to a pirate.

"Red Cross on white background, rice flag, Royal Navy!"

The flag of the British Navy is completely different from the blue-background flag.

The mountain artillery also suddenly remembered an allusion, and then remembered that it was the Royal Navy that pounced on the other side!

It is said that during World War II, an Italian navy encircled two British ironclads.

When five destroyers were lined up in a line, with absolute superiority, they swooped down like a tiger, but none of them opened fire!

It wasn't until they were stunned that the two British ironclad ships, which immediately woke up, aimed their main guns at the Italian destroyers only a few hundred meters away, and sank them one by one, that they understood what was going on from the angry scolding of the captured Italian navy.

Numb, people regard the flag of the Royal Navy as a white flag!

Although this allusion is a bit fucked, in the telescope of the mountain artillery, the flag of the Royal Navy opposite is indeed a white flag!

"Viladimore, change the skull flag to a white one!"

The mountain cannon smiled evilly, and decided to see if the British on the opposite side would think that his side had surrendered!

It's just enough to delay, after all, your own submarine is still thousands of nautical miles away!

Not a day or two, I can't catch up at all!

Although there are anti-submarine aircraft on the destroyer, the Navy, which has just learned to run, has not yet fought, and who knows what the combat effectiveness will be?

Just take this British fleet to test the waters, if you can, or if there is only this British fleet further south, maybe you can consider a trip to the United Kingdom!

The idea is not whimsical.

It's that simple to catch your enemies off guard!

Who would have thought that a superfleet with five aircraft carriers would run out from the direction of the Arctic Ocean?
