Chapter 1137 Bargaining 3
In the same way, if the German fleet encounters a large number of attack aircraft operated by pilots with experience in attacking ships, it will be difficult to deal with it. Battleships can still rely on armor to resist, but aircraft carriers may be worse. A suitable bomb will destroy the deck directly. If by chance, I mean just by chance, a 2,000-pound bomb hits, more than 70% of it will be a dead fish...
Fortunately, attacking the sea is a technical job, except that the prince starts preparations before the war, studies tactics, reserves pilots, and prepares related equipment. Most other countries only engage in small-scale attacks, using seaplanes and torpedoes to attack ships. But there is no systematization, scale, or thinking about how to use it as a means to determine the direction of naval battles! This is like hitting a shell with a stone. Can primitive people and beavers be the same? !
Therefore, the prince believes that for at least a year after his aircraft carrier shows its power, the British will not need to consider sea attacks. As for the British also building aircraft carriers for counterattack? Don’t even think about it for 2 years! How long does it take for you to change the ship? How long does it take you to match the pilot and the aircraft? By the time the British are done, maybe the war will be over soon, right?
The prince believes that the British built an aircraft carrier loaded with fighter jets for air defense, but what if they built a 20,000-ton aircraft carrier like the prince, loaded with hundreds of aircraft, and then competed against each other? That prince would never believe it! Therefore, the prince did not want to discuss with Boll and others today "the issue of how to defend against carrier-based aircraft based on the current situation of the British." This is obviously to scare myself. The attack effect of aircraft carriers may be relatively poor, but in terms of losses, it really won't be huge. In fact, this kind of thing that can make a profit without losing money is already very good. If the effect is not good once, we can do it twice...
"I think, judging from the current preparations, it is unrealistic for us to comprehensively consider the offensive and defensive issues of aircraft and warships. The entire exercise will begin in the next seven days, and we have not even selected the warships to participate in the exercise. . There has been no relevant training. I think the first thing Marshal Tirpitz and Admiral von Boll have to do is to select warships and then consider how to deal with air defense. As for the air defense situation of the entire fleet, there is no need to consider this. It's too complicated and cannot be quantified. We can't have the entire fleet cooperate with this exercise, right?" At this time, Admiral von Riole, the director of the Navy Office who had been silent, spoke, and from his words it can be seen It is obvious that this is a statement in favor of His Highness the Prince!
To put it simply, we are pressed for time, and His Majesty the Kaiser cannot come to see our exercises. We have not finalized the details yet. Let alone saying that the fleet is empty, there is no way to talk about it. Just take a single ship. And if we only consider a single ship, then the potential meaning is that we don’t need to consider the issue of battleship air defense, because the prince made it very clear before, four seaplanes will die in the face of a fighter jet. As for anti-aircraft artillery, they are currently in a state where they are basically unable to hit their targets...
Well, the current situation is 2V2. Yes, although there were more than 20 people attending this meeting, according to the principle of democratic centralism,
Only 4 people can really decide! His Royal Highness the prince and the original troika of the navy came down from the air.
In fact, each of Tirpitz and others had one vote, while the prince actually had one and a half votes. After all, if Tirpitz and Admiral Bohr were to file a lawsuit with the prince, even if it went to the Kaiser, it would be The prince has a good chance of winning, after all, his record and reputation are there!
There's something like the feeling of being in a superior position, it's so powerful sometimes. If the naval troika did not agree with the prince's opinion, the kaiser would carefully consider whether to veto the prince's suggestion. But now, haha, Admiral Liao Le is on the side of the prince, and the overall situation is settled. If the lawsuit went to the Kaiser, the prince would definitely win.
"Damn it!" Tirpitz and Bohr cursed in their hearts at the same time. This shows that the originally neutral Navy Office has tilted towards the prince. After the prince has ignored Admiral Bohr, I am afraid that he will soon ask other members of the navy. The system has penetrated! However, it was useless for them to worry, as the boss had already announced his "surrender"!
"Okay then, let's talk about damage determination now!" The prince nodded slightly to Admiral Liao Le. expressed his gratitude. I guess this is over. After he retires, I will give him a few consultant titles or something, and I will take the opportunity to add some marks. Or persuade the Kaiser to grant the honorary title of Marine Marshal? For a person of Xiang Liole's level, what he cares most about after stepping down is his reputation! If Admiral von Boll knew what he was looking for, the prince would also like to give him the same treatment, but now...
"Damage determination? How do you plan to do it?" Okay, now let's move on to more direct technical issues. At this time, Tirpitz had to step aside, and the real contenders were the Prince and Admiral Bohr, the two people who had directly managed the fleet!
In fact, any war game will set up something similar to a damage table. For example, if a battalion is hit by a heavy artillery battery, how to calculate casualties and combat effectiveness. That's probably what it means. This kind of combination of actual combat experience and statistical rules is also found in naval exercises. For example, how to determine if a warship is hit by a torpedo or artillery shell?
If it is a simple torpedo strike, it is easy to judge. It is easy to draw up a damage chart based on the charge and the location of the hit. But the question is how to determine the bomb? ! Theoretically, 250KG to 300KG bombs dropped by current aircraft can cause certain damage to German battleships, but it is impossible to penetrate the core compartment.
The bomb delivery height is low and the speed is also low, so according to the law of kinetic energy, the armor-piercing ability is not much higher. But there are also many fragile places on the surface of the warship, such as the flue, such as the bow and tail armor belts, and the fire caused by the explosion of high-explosive bombs cannot be ignored.
Another situation is that the delay of the bomb is relatively long, and then after causing a near miss, the bomb explodes deeper underwater next to the battleship! This is no joke! Even if the 300KG bomb has a charge coefficient of only 50%. That's also 150KG. If this exploded about 8 meters underwater, it would be the power of a large-charged mine! What's worse is that it explodes directly below the bottom of the ship. That's even more terrible. After all, what's the TDS thickness at the bottom of the hull? How thick can it be? Are you kidding me? ! 2. Why are war magnetic fuse torpedoes so powerful? Isn't it because of this reason? !
