Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

With Hixon's order, the Far East Fleet immediately attacked the four God Beast-class missile destroyers led by Deng Shichang according to the scheduled plan. Deng Shichang's four warships followed the British fleet from the Nansha Islands, so the British had already deployed the attack According to the plan, the four warships were sunk just waiting for an order.

The Far East Fleet bullied the Sanya Fleet with its small number of warships, so it ordered the sixteen cruisers of the First Cruiser Squadron to detour to the west of the Sanya Fleet, the sixteen cruisers of the Second Cruiser Squadron to detour to the east of the Sanya Fleet, and the Queen Elizabeth-class The battleships and the Lion-class battlecruisers took center stage to wipe out the enemy.

Deng Shichang looked at the mobilization of the Far East Fleet, and smiled to Huang Xiaojie, the chief of staff beside him: "Yingyi really has a well-organized army and is skilled in tactics. The cruiser surrounded the east and west wings in an attempt to force our ship to fight head-on. Send me an order. meet the enemy with missiles,"

Huang Xiaojie said at this time: "The caliber of the artillery of the British fleet is as high as 380 mm, and the range may be more than 60 kilometers. It is said that the British warships are also equipped with advanced fire control systems. The hit rate is not low. There are more than [-] enemy ships. According to our Missile hit probability, it takes about a hundred missiles to sink them,"

"It takes more than ten minutes to launch a hundred missiles. During this time, the British ships have enough time to fire at our ship. Our ship is bound to be killed by the enemy. We never do things that cost eight hundred dollars. I think it’s better if we immediately turn around, move southwest, sail out of the range of the British ship’s artillery, and then attack with missiles. This can not only avoid their edge, but also kill the enemy ship, isn’t it? kill two birds with one stone,"

Deng Shichang nodded lightly, and said: "This plan is very good, order the fleet to turn to the southwest, the radar room is aimed at the enemy ship, and the missile department is ready to launch."

The messenger picked up the microphone and issued an order to the fleet, and the entire fleet immediately turned to the southwest. The Divine Beast class was extremely maneuverable, and the turning speed was very fast. Hixon, who was on the opposite side, couldn't help being taken aback when he saw the amazingly fast steering speed of the Divine Beast class. Surprised, he thought in his heart: "No wonder everyone said that Lin Yuan's fleet is strong in battle. Now seeing them turn around, they are indeed stronger than my British Empire warships."

Thinking of this, Hixon picked up the communicator and said loudly, "Master Gunner, can you aim and shoot at the enemy ship now?"

The gunnery chief replied loudly: "No problem, the Chinese warships are really interesting, with sharp edges and corners, as if they are specially waiting for us to measure the distance." Any artillery must measure the distance before firing, and naval guns are no exception. , The British battleship is equipped with a combined image rangefinder. This rangefinder is a British patent. Like the German stereo rangefinder, it is an excellent rangefinder.

When using the composite image rangefinder, you need to find a certain vertical reference object on the target ship as a reference. Masts and chimneys are the first choice. In the era of Lin Yuan, British warships used the composite image rangefinder to prevent the German navy from using the composite image rangefinder. Lin Yuan measured the range of the ship and even turned the mast into a spiral shape. Lin Yuan's monster-class destroyer has a simple and clear shape with sharp edges and corners. This is the habit of the chief designer Wan Ling in designing stealth warships for many years. Unexpectedly, at this time Used by the British Navy.

Hickson said: "Very good, since the distance can be measured, let's input the distance into the fire control system and calculate the shooting parameters." In Lin Yuan's era, the British Navy was the first to develop and equip the fire control system. The fire control system uses a mechanical fire control computer, which can calculate the position of the target at a certain moment in the future according to the rate of change of the distance of the target, and then point the artillery to that position in advance.

As soon as Hixon gave an order, the firepower command room located on the top of the battleship's mast immediately began to calculate. The motor rotated rapidly, driving the components of the mechanical computer, and well-trained officers were working beside the mechanical computer. Data input, data correction, data recording, etc., after these officers recorded the data, they immediately sent it to the control room of the main gun, and the officers contacted other warships to coordinate the bombardment of each warship.

The British warship is preparing for shooting, and the four beast-class battleships are also targeting with radar. The radar emits electromagnetic waves rapidly, and the radar operator nervously presses various switch buttons on the operation panel: filter out clutter, adjust radar repetition Frequency... The data transmission indicator is flashing non-stop, and groups of data are being transmitted to the missile department.

In the missile department, the missile maintainer inserts the data connection line into the data transmission interface of the missile, and the enemy ship’s position information and reflection cross section information are transmitted to the missile and recorded by the missile one by one. At the same time, the pre-launch inspection of the missile is also carried out. Conducting... Chinese warships and British warships are like a fierce race.

The missiles of the Chinese warships were ready one step ahead, and the head of the missile department sent a message to Deng Shichang: The missiles are ready and can be launched.

Deng Shichang immediately ordered: "Launch,"

Immediately, the four missiles roared into the air on the battleship and flew towards the British battleship. Someone on the British battleship soon saw the trailing flames when the missiles flew over, so they reported it to the commander of the battleship. Officials have ordered: "Launch jamming wires,"

British warships are also equipped with jamming wire launchers, which are the same as those on Japanese warships. With a command, the launcher presses the launch button, and clusters of jamming wires are thrown into the sky, forming a large cloud of jamming wires. One missile was successfully interfered by the interference silk cloud and crashed into the interference silk cloud, and the other two missiles avoided the interference silk cloud and directly crashed into the Queen Elizabeth-class battleship Heart of the Ocean.

The thickness of the main side armor of the Queen Elizabeth-class battleship is as high as 63 centimeters. Even so, the armor-piercing warhead of the Eagle Strike [-] anti-ship missile penetrated the main side armor, and the blasting warhead behind it flew into the interior of the battleship to cause explosions. Explosion, this type of Queen Elizabeth-class battleship can be regarded as the pinnacle of British battleships in this era.

However, Eagle Strike 63 is loaded with hundreds of kilograms of RDX and TNT mixed explosives. The explosive power of these explosives cannot be underestimated. In an instant, more than 30 watertight compartments on the port side were blown up. Fortunately, the watertight compartments near the side There were no dangerous goods such as fuel oil and shells in the compartment, so there was no explosion.

The first missile hit the bow of the Heart of the Ocean, and the other hit the stern. This missile also tore through more than 30 watertight compartments, and a large amount of seawater poured into the port side of the battleship. The warship immediately tilted to the left, and the captain immediately ordered to evacuate all personnel in watertight compartments b1 to b54 on the starboard side, turn on the water pumps at maximum power, and fill these watertight compartments with water.
