The Third Reich - Chapter 1741
Naval battles are cruel. If the pilots who fell into the water are not rescued, the final outcome will be death.
At the same time, Germany is kind.
In the battle, you can do everything possible to shoot down the opponent, but when the naval battle is over, the German ships also began to rescue some pilots who fell into the water.
Most of the pilots were on the outside of the formation. Some small frigates could be rescued. The only U.S. Navy pilot near the USS Munich was because he was near the formation at the time of the fall.
Germany still maintains the spirit of knighthood, like the island pilots strafing skydiving pilots in history, Germany really can’t do it.
The sky gradually turned dark, and the American offensive had come to an end. Lieutenant General Marshal took a helicopter and arrived on the battleship to report to Raidel.
“Today we have withstood the highest intensity of American attacks. According to calculations, the U.S. Navy probably dispatched more than 600 fighter jets, some of which are relatively backward models, such as F-2A, but also advanced, such as pirate fighters. We passed The fighter planes took off in batches, guarding their defensive circles, and at the same time they shot down more than 400 enemy planes.” Lieutenant General Mashaer said about the situation.
It has long been known that they will be attacked by American fighter planes. However, I still did not expect that the scale of Americans would be so large. In terms of the number of fighter planes, it even exceeded the number of their own formations.
If it wasn’t for Lieutenant General Marshal’s investment in batches, but instead planned to deliver all of them like Raidel did, then it would definitely be at a loss.
“Our own casualties?” Raidel asked.
“We lost one 60 FW190.” Lieutenant General Marshal said: “The performance of the American Corsair fighter is very good. It is comparable to us in all aspects. Most of our losses are due to this Lost in the engagement of fighters.”
It was almost the main fighter plane of an wing. In this battle, the Navy also suffered a lot of casualties. Fortunately, the pilots only killed less than 20 people, and the others were rescued.
Fighters can be rebuilt if they are gone, but people are gone if they are gone. Training a qualified pilot requires a lot of effort.
After these years of development, the strength of the German naval aviation force is quite strong. This time, they brought in experienced pilots, which is why this exchange ratio is achieved.
Raidel nodded: “Then, we can be sure that the United States should be greatly injured after this air battle. Our landing battle tomorrow will be much easier.”
How many fighters and pilots can the United States have? Even if there are, they will be distributed in various theaters, so that they can be gathered together to compete with the German aircraft carrier formation and invest for a Greenland island. How much can there be?
Even if they still have 600, after today’s World War I, knowing that the exchange is not worthwhile, it’s time to stop and sit back and watch Germany occupy Greenland.
“Yes, we also got this inference.” Lieutenant General Marshal said: “However, we have also observed that the airstrikes against us today were all from the US Navy, and the US Army did not dispatch it.”
This is what puzzles Marshal. At the last juncture today, as almost all of our carrier-based aircraft were dispatched, there were obvious loopholes in the defense, so that a fighter plane broke through the defensive circle and got into the air above the aircraft carrier, almost being bombed.
If the Americans use more power, such as the large number of Mustang fighters of the U.S. Army Air Corps, and those special bombs, they might really succeed.
However, I didn’t see it at all. This is strange.
Is it because the US Army is not interested? impossible! Although the Army does not care about the sea, after all, its current position is already within reach of those long-range Mustang fighters.
If their army and navy join forces, they might have to suffer today.
“Because of their military disagreement.” Raidel said: “Today’s accident comes from our ignorance that the performance of their pirate fighters has caught up with our FW190. It seems that our jets must be on board as soon as possible. “
To be good at summing up experience and lessons can make continuous progress. In the past, FW190 was the existence of air every second and every second, dominating the sky for several years, but now, the United States has caught up.
The navy must continue to maintain its superiority, and the arrival of jets on ships is already imminent.
“I heard that the technical problem is almost over.” An adjutant said: “By the end of this battle, we will be able to receive the Moscow, and the factory in Bavaria is also rushing to produce it to provide us with enough shipboard jets. machine.”
At first, the FW190 was a project funded and manufactured by the Navy, because the Air Force did not give the Navy BF109. Later, this aircraft showed outstanding performance ~www.mtlnovel.com~ As a result, it was also ordered by the Air Force in large numbers.
The navy did not embarrass the air force, and the relationship between the two services has eased, especially after Goering disappeared, there is no contradiction between the air force and the navy. Many equipment of the two services can be used together, such as now This is the most needed jet.
The Navy needs aircraft with generational differences, and jets are an inevitable choice.
“Tomorrow early in the morning, there will be a battle to land on Greenland. Tonight, let the Griffin Special Forces go up.” Redel continued.
This is an additional task. The Griffin Special Forces has planned a special beheading operation, which has been approved by the head of state. If this is the case, of course the navy will not be embarrassed. Just to provide the exact time, the Griffin Special Forces has its own full set of tactical plans.
Greenland will belong to the Empire tomorrow! Looking at the map, Raidel’s will is very firm, it can be said that today has finished the most difficult battle.
In this naval battle, Germany was considered a victory.
For the United States, this day is definitely not so pleasant.
More than 600 aircraft were used, and two-thirds were lost. This is simply discrediting the United States. Even during the most difficult period of fighting against island countries, such an exchange ratio did not occur.
“The navy is simply committing suicide. The defense of the German formation is very tight. They also used six aircraft carriers and sent hundreds of fighters to them. That is an act of seeking death.” Arnold’s face was ugly, and he cursed in the conference room. : “God won’t forgive you fools.”
Arnold has always been very stable, even if the Navy acted privately, he did not curse like this. Now, he is completely stunned. He has seen stupid, never seen such stupid.
