Chapter 1139： Preparation two (1/2)
Chapter 1139
Although the number will not be more than the first wave, but according to the prince's calculation, these two groups can release at least 70% of the Wittelsbach aircraft! After all, these are two waves of planes. Of course, for these tricks, the prince has no meaning to explain to Admiral Boll, he won't talk about it before winning!
”45 attack aircraft?” Major General Harrell asked again.
”Yes.” The prince replied very simply.
”Is it enough to hit more than 4 torpedoes in the exercise setting?” Major General Harrell asked again.
”The more the better, the 4 shots are a pass. If you hit 6 rounds, your salary will be increased by one level. If you hit 8 rounds, your rank of lieutenant general will be lost!” The prince said generously.
”How is the bomb hit?” Harrell actually started to care about like a businessman.
”17 bombers, hit 3 rounds and count you as a pass, hit 5 rounds, your salary will go up one more level, hit 7 rounds, your Viscount is no problem!” said the prince.
”Okay, that's it!” The major general answered very simply. The expression is also very relaxed, because there is really no difficulty, and the hit rate may not be high simply by looking at it, but under the huge base accumulation, Major General Harrell thinks that if a battleship is piled up, the problem is really not big!
”If the speed and power of the Bavarian-class battleships are limited. Then we adopt the previously formulated tactics, every 4 torpedo aircraft, each group of lightning strikes from both sides of the battleship at the same time, we will attack at least 8 aircraft. It’s normal to hit 1 or 2 torpedoes without considering interference.”
”The torpedo squad consists of four torpedo planes in a group, and the attack range is between 500 and 600 meters. The attack interval is about 10 seconds. Before the main attacking fleet launches an attack, we can arrange a small number of torpedo planes to harass. Sexual attack. Used to consume the maneuverability and remaining power of the opponent's warship.” Major General Harrell first arranged the attack method of the torpedo.
”As for the bomb attack? How to put it, I always think that the accuracy of low-altitude bombing is not high, and the lethality is limited in the face of capital ships. So I suggest that the bomber unit has completed two waves of torpedo attacks and has already hit the opponent. If you are injured, you can bomb. Slow targets are always more accurate than fast targets.”
”As for liaison, one of our four-aircraft formations is equipped with a transceiver dual-purpose radio, and the remaining three are only equipped with a receiving device. The combat distance will not be very far, and it is sufficient even in actual combat.” He added that radio has always been a high-value item in World War I, so it is obviously difficult to equip each single-engine carrier aircraft with a transceiver radio. Therefore, the method adopted by the Germans is that the captain's aircraft is equipped with a transceiver dual-purpose radio, and other aircraft are only equipped with receiving devices.
The horizontal bombing of this era is really not good, and if it is a dive bombing, the structural strength of the Seahawk 1 does not allow too large a dive. In fact, in the opinion of Major General Harrell, if the prince intends to do something absolutely, then Just go directly to 45 full torpedo planes. No need to consider the opponent's air defense anyway! But Major General Harrell thinks that the remaining integrity of the prince makes this plan not so perfect...
