Chapter 2736: Plan Three (1/2)

”Okay, let's now discuss the next question. If our aircraft carrier squadron successfully completes the mission, how do we face the battleship forces of the Japanese Joint Fleet? We assume that the two Nagato-class battleships are already in service.” Mus said.

”There are 11 battleships on both sides, and the Japanese have three weak ships equipped with 14-inch artillery. Whether it is any warship in our fleet, it can easily overwhelm or even kill the opponent. But our remaining warships are When facing the Nagato and Fuso-class, it is a disadvantage. Our 16-inch naval gun may not penetrate the core compartment of the Fuso-class, but the 16-inch gun of Nagato and the 15-inch gun of Fuso can pose a threat to all American battleships. The 13.5-inch vertical armor is too bad, and the defense design of the Colorado-class battleship is not improved compared to the previous one.” Sims said.

”By the way, I also want to remind that the combat effectiveness of the Colorado and New Mexico will be reduced due to the bombing problem. This must be noted.” Majifen said.

”Well, let’s follow the order of the fundamentalist artillery battles. Let’s arrange the theoretical order first. My Maryland will fight with a Nagato-class battleship. Then who will be responsible for the other Nagato-class battleship? ? Colorado or Tennessee?” Sims said.

Sims’ words surprised everyone here. After all, according to normal operations, when two fleets of similar size and strength engage in battle between capital ships, it should be a strong ship versus a strong ship, and a weak ship versus a weak ship. , This is not necessarily the best way, but it is the safest way.

There is not much time to really play Tianji horse racing. This kind of more radical method is only used when one party is ready to fight. For example, in the Great Battle in the Norwegian Sea, Ruprecht used the most elite battleship against Jericho's fleet, while Hipper was allowed to contain the most elite troops of the British army. Anyone who has participated in the war knows the risks involved. It is also clear to include Americans. If the Bavarians did not quickly defeat the Jericho fleet, or Hipper collapsed first, the consequences would be really bad.

In fact, the situation of the US fleet against the Japanese fleet this time is not as good as when the German Navy dealt with the large fleet. Ruprecht has multiple insurances. The fleet itself has aviation advantages. There are land-based aviation forces from Norway. The Spey fleet is rushing to the battlefield. Hard power is also good. But what about the US Navy this time? Even if the tactics of Logan and Mitchell are successful, the US fleet still suffers from battleships, and the limit number of the Japanese fleet into the battlefield is 13 battleships, 11 super fearless and 2 fearless! At this time, Sims dared to use this tactic, undoubtedly taking a huge risk!

”Tennessee, this is our battleship with the best combat effectiveness. The 12 14-inch guns are better than the 6 16-inch guns. As long as the distance is not very close, Tennessee can still last for a while.” Ma Jifen thought for a while and said.

”So good, the remaining 6 Fuso-class battleships can be dealt with by the Colorado and the other 5 standard battleships.” Sims said, the Fuso-class battleships are of similar level, and the American standard battleship is almost one. It is drawn in a mold, so there is nothing to choose from.

”General Ryder, we have created the best environment for your battle. If the plan goes well, you will face the weakest warship in the Japanese Navy. I hope that the prestige of the German Imperial Navy can be carried forward in your hands.” Sim Said.
