Chapter 294 Jeju Naval Battle (2)(2/2)
Hit, the battleship Nagamon in the distance exploded into pieces and rolling smoke, but more and more tiger shark fighters were pouring down like meteor showers falling from the vast sky, and aviation bombs poured down like rain.
The Tiger Shark fighter bomber after throwing out all four bombs he carried continued to turn into a heavily armored attack aircraft, shooting wildly on the bridge deck at low altitude, and the 4 20mm Browning Belly cannons rained.
Catholicism makes people feel desperate and depressed.
Tiger Shark.
The tiger shark represents an empire's powerful aviation manufacturing industry and a country's aviation technology strength.
How much does Ozawa Jisaburo hope that the Great Japanese Empire, which he loved infinitely, also has such a powerful fighter. If so, the Great Japanese Empire will definitely be able to conquer the entire Asia, trample on China, conquer everything, and expand infinitely for the future of the Great Japanese Empire.
A vast territory.
In the eyes of the Japanese army, the performance of the tiger shark fighter bomber is unimaginable. It can not only work as bombers and fighters at high altitudes, but also dive bombing at medium and low altitudes. How powerful performance is required, and the strong and hard armor support is strong and strong.
The tiger shark's super vitality is that if it weren't for being hit directly by the 127mm anti-aircraft gun, it would have been hit four or five times before it could crash.
Its large range and high speed are all achievements that are infinitely admired.
In front of Japan, the tiger shark is an unprecedented invincible fighter jet, which makes Japanese officers and soldiers afraid and confused, but they also hope that Japan will have such fighter jets one day.
The Japanese army, which had no heavy high-altitude fighter jets, had no effective response methods except anti-aircraft guns when facing the tiger shark.
On the bay of smoke, the Japanese Navy's fleet is evacuating at high speed. Two aircraft carriers converted from cruise ships have been destroyed and are slowly sinking. There are many small boats on the sea, and naval soldiers are constantly coming from the ships that are about to be sunk.
Jumping into the sea, hundreds of fighter jets in the sky fired and attacked wildly, with speeds like meteors whistling by. The anti-aircraft cannons of all ships were bursting continuously, and the banging and angrily sounded over the entire sea.
The Imperial Japanese Navy, once the third largest in the world, is facing a day of collapse. Several battleships were hit by a bombshell thrown by a tiger shark fighter bomber. Fire was raging on the deck of the ship, and black smoke rolled on the vast sea
, covering half of the sky.
The Canglong aircraft carrier, which had lost more than half of its carrier-based aircraft, once again made good luck. Until then, it had not suffered a serious attack and quickly tried to leave the battlefield ahead. The nearest military port here is Busan Port.
But that was also 110 nautical miles away, and it took three hours to move forward at full speed.
The Luao high-speed battleship not far from the Canglong aircraft carrier was suddenly hit and made a shocking explosion. The huge battleship kept shaking like it was about to be torn apart in the waves, and began to fall to the port side, obviously
It was attacked by torpedoes.
The commander-in-chief of Ozawa, who was riding on the Canglong aircraft carrier, realized early on that the submarine troops of China were ambushing the Jeju Strait. The number was still unknown. The crew members were throwing deep-water bombs downwards, as if they were forcing the submarines.
Come out, but in this noisy battlefield, everything seems so useless.
In Jisaburo Ozawa's eyes, it seemed as if the sky was filled with tiger shark fighter bombers from China. The huge black fuselage roared by the roaring roar, constantly throwing bombs, hiding in the offensive of the tiger shark cluster.
G-3B torpedo dive bombers forced the sea to pass by, and four or five formations fired low-altitude torpedoes at the fleet. They only needed to approach the distance of 50 to 80 meters around the ship, and basically each formation could hit once the attack.
No matter how anti-aircraft guns and ship sub-guns are fired, ships are constantly hit by torpedoes, while fighter bombers of the J3\4\5 series are covering the G-2\3 series attack aircraft and dive bombers.
.
A G-2 attack aircraft was hit by multiple anti-aircraft artillery from the sinking Lu'ao high-speed battleship in a low-altitude strafing. Before the explosion, it directly hit the bridge and exploded, and the impact caused the entire ship to shine.
A dazzling light came out, and the flames were burning. Some crew members jumped into the sea from the deck of the Luo in a panic, giving up the rescue of the giant ship.
The Japanese Navy evacuated at a high speed, but the speed of the Navy always seemed like a still sculpture in front of the Air Force.
After the aircraft carrier-based aircraft fleet vented all bombs and torpedoes, more than 40 G-3A torpedo dive bombers taken off Jeju Island also joined the battle, divided into twelve formations, and continued to launch a strong attack on the Japanese army under the cover of other fighters.
The carrier-based aircraft group successfully evacuated the battlefield and returned to the aircraft carrier group for replenishment.
Everything is over.
As the commander-in-chief of the main fleet, Lieutenant General Ozawa Shisaburo has completely lost all confidence in the empire and the navy, and has also lost confidence in himself. He has no way to deal with the crazy situation in front of him, and he can do anything.
It is to keep telegraphing the base camp and ask for support.
If the Army Aviation Forces cannot come to rescue, the main fleet of the Imperial Japanese Navy will be at least half of them, and they will even be sunk here.
The rescue of the Japanese Army seemed out of reach, but the offensive of the Chinese Navy Air Fleet and the offensive of the Air Force Jeju Base were still pouring in like rain. The two sides attacked in turn in turn, cooperating and covering each other. Starting from joining the battle situation, the Tiger Shark Fighting Bomber Group
The total number has been increasing, from the initial 100 to 700, even though more than 100 were destroyed one after another.
For Jisaburo Ozawa, he was lucky after all.
After three consecutive attacks, at 10:40 am on December 10, 1939, Lieutenant General Jiang Yu, commander of the Second Fleet of the Central Navy aircraft carrier joint fleet, issued an order to stop the attack.
Under the noon sunshine, the first battle fleet of the Great Japanese Empire, which was originally composed of 7 battleships, 4 aircraft carriers and 11 cruisers, was extremely miserable with only 3 battleships, 1 aircraft carrier and 4 cruisers.
As a result, he evacuated the battlefield and only one of the four destroyers left with the army.
Severely hurt.
What's worse than this is that the naval aviation forces were completely lost, and 92 of the 133 new Zero carrier-based aircraft used as secret weapons before the war were shot down.
In this era of alternating times, the Imperial Japanese Navy was completely eliminated. The self-righteous heroism and mightyness that once served as the world's third naval power and was once arrogant in Asia has become a memory forever.
The main naval force established by Japan in the past thirty years has been lost and withered in the two naval battles, with very little left.
Some people may say that if Japan's Yamato battleship was also committed to this naval battle, the ending would be rewritten. Some people may say that if the number of zero battles is more, the ending would be rewritten. Maybe some people may say,
If the Japanese Army had chosen Mitsubishi heavy fighter jets, the outcome would have been rewritten.
That's just a fantasy of the Japanese. Just like the Zero War myth that they are proud of, and the Midway Black Five Minutes they took as a warning, they actually do not exist. With zero war performance parameters, where can they be qualified to become zero?
War myth, as long as the United States begins to strengthen the development of fighter jets, Zero War will not even be qualified to sweep the streets of the United States.
Even after 30 years of careful preparations, Zero Warfare was only in a mess in front of the mixed aircraft group composed of J-3\4\5. Even in a single-on-one battle, Zero Warfare faced the J-303 Sea Snake carrier-based fighter jet.
There is no advantage at all. With a 1350-horsepower liquid-cooled engine and excellent aerodynamic design, the latter has 40 more weight than Zero Warfare, which has better defense and safety performance, and is almost the same in mid- and low-altitude combat performance.
At high altitudes, the latter with turbochargers can directly ravage the zero battle with only one-level supercharger.
If it is just about the cost of the fighter and its representative technology and industrial standards, the J-5D Tiger Shark fighter bomber is definitely the pinnacle of the propeller engine fighter. This class of fighter is equipped with the first generation of crystal Doppler radar
Heliming's SELM-2800-14 dual-row 18-cylinder air-cooled star engine, coupled with unique aerodynamic and fuselage design, as well as high-strength hard aluminum alloy, ultimately made the Tiger Shark fighter bomber the entire Pacific air.
Overlords, they completely represent the strongest fighter of this era.
Perhaps in air combat, the J-5D Tiger Shark fighter bomber is far from the opponent of the J-4 lightning fighter, but the number and multi-faceted uses of the tiger shark, as well as the strength of the sea and land attacks, determines that it is this era.
