Chapter 221: The Aircraft Carrier Sinks

The ship-based helicopter on another frigate, hovering in the air, watching the incoming missiles, stopped on the necessary route of the missiles, ready to block the incoming missiles.

It is a pity that the small helicopter is simply unable to stop in front of the anti-ship missile weighing a ton at high speed, the missile belongs to the semi-armor-piercing delayed detonation fuse, and the light carrier-based helicopter is like a papier-mâché paste that is ruthlessly passed through by the missile and explodes in the air, and the missile shows no signs of damage.

The five missiles suddenly formed an attack formation when they were still a few seconds away from the aircraft carrier in front of the convexity, three missiles also went straight to the vicinity of the aircraft carrier's waterline along their original paths, and the other two suddenly jumped several hundred meters high, and then a perfect parabola hit straight down from the sky.

Five missiles, three attacking the broadside and two attacking the top, hit the aircraft carrier almost simultaneously, detonating at the same time half a second after the missiles penetrated the surface armor of the aircraft carrier and entered the interior of the giant ship.

With a loud bang, three missiles attacking the side of the aircraft carrier tore a large hole nearly 10 meters long and 5 meters wide on one side of the aircraft carrier, and the sea water rushed in at once.

The design of the aircraft carrier is composed of many sealed cabins, such a large opening for the aircraft carrier, it is also seriously injured, but it is not sunk, the damage management on the ship is immediately put into operation, and the rest of the cabins are closed, which can also keep the aircraft carrier moving at a low speed, and even take off and land carrier-based aircraft.

However, after the two missiles penetrated the hard flight deck, they entered the aircraft carrier hangar through the compartment from top to bottom, although there were no carrier-based aircraft in the hangar, there were still hundreds of tons of aviation kerosene in it!

One of the missiles directly hit the storage tank of the jet fuel, and several tanks were detonated instantly, and a chain reaction occurred, one after the other exploded, and the high temperature of the jet fuel burned after the explosion melted all the surrounding metal.

The worst part of the flames of the jet coal actually flowed into the ammunition bay along the gap that was blown open by the explosion! The ammunition compartment was supposed to have an automatic fire extinguishing device, but it was damaged in a violent explosion.

The ammunition silos were stored with ground-attack bombs, which were detonated one after another under the scorching fire of jet fuel, and another series of explosions caused the entire ammunition silo to be completely opened.

From the lower deck of the aircraft carrier to the deck of the aircraft carrier, thick smoke and flames poured out, and the air crew on duty on the deck were instantly engulfed and vaporized, and no trace could be found.

Finally, the energy of the explosion tore a huge channel on the side of the aircraft carrier and communicated with the rift formed by the other three missiles, and no compartment could play any role, and the damage pipe became meaningless, and the unblocked seawater poured into the cabin of the aircraft carrier endlessly.

On the command ship, Nagumo looked at the sky-high black smoke coming out of the aircraft carrier, and saw that it was about to sink, his heart was completely cold, only one aircraft carrier could not fight against the two aircraft carriers of the central country at all, and now the wisest choice is to retreat, to protect the only aircraft carrier from being sunk, and to save some examples, once the other aircraft carrier is lost, this is the only thing left to be beaten.

How to explain to the king of Dan when he went back like this, when he went out on the expedition, he boasted that Haikou would definitely defeat the navy of the central country and seize the sea and air supremacy, and now the fleet has failed, so he can only go to the military court to be tried!

Nagumo is not willing to fail, at least he has to pull an aircraft carrier from the Yang Kingdom to accompany the funeral! He made up his mind and ordered all the fighters to attack one of the aircraft carriers of the Central Kingdom with all their might, and be sure to sink it!

If Dan and Yang each have only one aircraft carrier, the balance of forces between the two sides is at least in balance, and they will not lose too badly, and they will have an explanation when they go back.

Dan's fighters received the order to attack, and the Danguo fighters who were originally strangling with the central country left the battlefield and went straight to the nearest central aircraft carrier from the Danguo aircraft carrier formation.

The fighters on the aircraft carrier of the central country were fighting with the fighters of the Dan country, and suddenly another group of Dan aircraft broke in to join the melee, which made the pressure on the fighters of the central country increase sharply, but then the group of the central aircraft group that arrived relieved the pressure, and the two sides fell into a melee again.

Originally, the performance of Danguo's fighters was better than that of the central fighters, but as long as there was no generation difference between the fighters and the quality of the pilots in close air combat, the exchange ratio was basically 1:1.

At this time, a large number of fighters came back to refuel, which is tantamount to death, and now there is only one aircraft carrier left on the Danish side, and there is no way to refuel so many fighters at the same time.

Nagumo showed a fierce light on the command ship and gave the harshest order to the pilots of Danguo! Use your warplanes to ram the aircraft carriers of the Central Kingdom until they sink them!

When the Danguo pilots received the order, they were like robots, and no one raised any objections, leaving the battlefield like moths to a flame, and crashing into the aircraft carriers of the central country one after another, and the pilots of the central country and the ground crew on the aircraft carrier were stunned.

Pilots, especially carrier-based pilots, are made with money, and they are more expensive than fighters in general, so it's a pity that they are sacrificed in vain.

At the moment when the pilot of the central country hesitated, the first Danguo fighter plane stabbed obliquely into the bridge of the aircraft carrier, but fortunately, the phalanx system on the aircraft carrier found it in time and successfully intercepted it to avoid the destruction of the bridge.

A Danguo fighter plane plunged into the sky, then a tumbling vertical dive down, rushing down while turning on the afterburner of the engine, crashing into the deck of the aircraft carrier at supersonic speed. The process defense missile and phalanx system on the aircraft carrier launched at an elevation angle of up to 80 degrees, which could not cope with the vertical fighters at all, and could only watch the fighters crash into the aircraft carrier.

With a loud bang, the fighter plane ignited a huge fireball on the deck of the aircraft carrier, but the fighter was not an anti-ship missile after all, it had neither armor nor a delayed fuse, and the explosive power formed by its own weight plus fuel and weapons was far less than that of an anti-ship missile, and the flight deck of the aircraft carrier withstood the impact and was not penetrated, only causing a pit that was not too deep on the surface.

Danguo fighters crashed into the central aircraft carrier like raindrops, and there were two transport planes parked under the bridge of the aircraft carrier, and a Danguo fighter plane just collided with it, and the bridge of the aircraft carrier caught fire, and the side of the ship was also knocked out of a big hole, and the aircraft carrier was seriously damaged on the surface, but it did not affect the operation of the aircraft carrier, let alone sink, but it could not take off and land the carrier-based aircraft.

Nagumo got the news that the aircraft carrier of the central country had been severely damaged, and it had lost the ability to take off and land fighters, and it would take at least half a year to repair it. Nor could he exhaust all the carrier-based aircraft, so he ordered all the fighters to return.
