Chapter 1466 carrier-based early warning aircraft

It was completely careless, not because of their lack of strength, but because of tactics, for the proud island naval aviation force, he actually made such a mistake!

The one who originally planned to ambush the other party, but was ambushed by the other party. This is simply unacceptable. But now, the American aircraft carrier formation is approaching Midway Island and wants to retake Midway Island again? There is no gate!

Standing on the Yamato, Shanji Fifty-six will not be willing to fail. With Midway Island, he can lead the main fleet to continue the decisive battle with the Americans! He has two escort aircraft carriers, and the base on the island can take off fighters, and his side has absolutely not failed yet!

In the Pacific Ocean, smoke filled the air.

"The key to this battle is that the Americans first discovered the main force of the island fleet and supervised it at any time." When the news came back to the wolf's den, Cialick and others were also analyzing the gains and losses of the battle.

"This shows that the Americans have mastered the technology of deploying radars on large reconnaissance aircraft." Although Cirick did not see it with his own eyes, just by looking at the process of this battle, it is easy to analyze it.

The key is that the Americans first discovered the island's aircraft carrier formation, especially during the entire night, the Americans were monitoring the island's formation, but the islands were not prepared. Therefore, after dawn, while the islands were still searching for traces of the US fleet, the Americans' attack had already begun.

What kind of technology can be achieved?

It must be the Americans who brought the radar onto the plane to conduct sea surveillance. At night, the reconnaissance planes will not expose their whereabouts, but can firmly grasp the movements of the island fleet.

With Cialek's time travel, World War II and history began to become increasingly different, gradually drifting away, and many technologies, due to Cialek's stimulation, were realized in advance.

Even in history, after the Pearl Harbor incident, in order to solve the problem that ground and ship radars could not detect low-altitude invasion targets, the United States began to install high-power radars on carrier-based aircraft, so that they could detect low-altitude aircraft and surface ships at longer distances, and transmit radar intelligence to the ship in time by radio.

After several years of hard work, in the spring of 1944, engineers finally installed the an/aps-20 radar (S-band) developed by General Electric on the Grumman TBM-3 "Avenger" carrier-based torpedo aircraft.

At the same time, the radar device and layout of the TBM-3 torpedo aircraft were modified: all weapons were removed, and a fairing with a radar antenna was installed below the middle of the fuselage, and the aircraft became a big belly; in order to maintain heading stability, an auxiliary vertical surface was installed on the horizontal stability surface of the standard TBM-3 aircraft, so that the tail wing became a three-vertical tail layout.

After repeated experiments, this type of aircraft can find low altitudes at 150m at a distance of 100 to 120km when the sea conditions are calm, and ships at sea can also be found at a distance of 320km.

This distance is enough to track the other party's water formation to an absolute safety level. If it were not surprising, the Americans would have made this thing out.

Although due to some technical problems, clutter cannot be filtered out, and when sea conditions are harsh, airborne radar cannot detect targets normally due to strong clutter reflected by the sea surface. However, the Pacific Ocean is often calm and there is no problem at all.

As the world's first carrier-based early warning aircraft, TBM-3 already has the basic characteristics of early warning aircraft: carrier aircraft, high-power search radar and radar intelligence transmission communication chain.

Under the guidance of Cialek, Germany's microelectronics technology has developed rapidly. Now, the output and performance of transistors are very stable. At the same time, German scientists have tried to build more p-n junctions on a semiconductor unit to realize the functions of initial integrated circuits. Although there are no laser etching and other technologies, there are still many problems in its process, they are constantly taking steps in the right direction.

"It seems that we need to step up the development of carrier-based early warning aircraft," said Cialick. "Put our radar onto the plane so that the radar can detect situations on the sea farther away."

After all, there will definitely be situations in which the US Navy and the German Navy will fight on the Atlantic Ocean in the future. In order to avoid being suppressed by the Americans, it is necessary to develop a carrier-based early warning aircraft. Even if the performance is poor and the clutter cannot be filtered out, the problem of existence or not must be solved.

"Yes, we will continue to deploy," Speer said.

"Although the Americans won the naval battle and severely damaged the island nation's navy, the island nation has already taken root in Midway. It is not that easy to win the Pacific War." Cialick said: "If the island nation restrains the Americans, we can feel at ease for the time being. Let's see how we are on the Eastern Front."

When everyone mentioned the Eastern Front, everyone's expression was filled with joy.

"Head of the Cialis, now, the Battle of Kiev has basically come to an end. We have eliminated at least 700,000 Soviet troops on the battlefield of Kiev. This is a great victory!" Keitel said loudly: "It is also the biggest siege war since we started the war!"

When the middle road went south and surrounded the encirclement, the outcome of the Soviet army in the encirclement was destined. Although they bravely broke through, the few who could break through must be a minority. It is estimated that the total number of people who broke through were about 10,000 people, and most of them were wiped out.

This means that another powerful Soviet force was eliminated, and another pillar supporting the Soviet building collapsed. Now, the Soviet building is already shaking!

Everyone was excited on their faces. After capturing Kiev and solving the 700,000 army, the German army had only one mission left, which was to rush to Moscow in one go!

“To boost morale, Moscow is preparing for a military parade,” Scherner said. “They say they want to make up for the regret that there was no military parade on Labor Day on May 1.”

The Soviets are now in poverty and can't beat them head-on, and they actually want to regain their dignity on the military parade!

Upon hearing this news, Cialic immediately remembered that in history, when German troops were at the city, the Soviets still held the inspiring October Revolutionary Parade, which greatly boosted the morale of the whole country and was even considered to be the turning point of the Soviet Union's Patriotic War.

Stalin was proud, Zhukov was resourceful, but unfortunately, in the face of absolute strength, everything was futile!

"Prepare for me, I'm going to Kiev." Cialek said: "We're in Kiev, holding a great military parade!"

Going to Kiev? Everyone was stunned, and Scherner immediately objected: "No, Head of Cialis, you can't go, it's very dangerous there!"
