Chapter 1308: Mighty Baltimore

In the early days of World War II, the maritime air defense forces of various countries were quite ordinary. This situation continued for a long time. This was mainly because the two sides who had just started participating in the war had a special battle location. The German Navy's operations in the Atlantic were surface ships, submarines and pirates. It is no different. In this way, the German navy is trying to avoid fighting with the British Royal Navy in the North Atlantic, and the naval battle between the two sides in Norway has almost no aircraft carrier participation and stopped with the withdrawal of the British war in the European continent. The naval battles towards the Eastern Mediterranean are a bit special. Many of the attacks on the Eastern Mediterranean islands are based on roadbed aircraft. In addition, Italy joined the war so hurriedly that only a few serious naval battles were fought. After the Battle of Cape Matapan The capital ships of the Italian Navy almost stopped their activities due to lack of fuel.
When the Pacific War broke out, the air defenses of the warships of all countries were very ordinary. Among them, the British battleship Prince of Wales and the Battlecruiser Counterattack had the best air defense level in the world at that time, but the results of these two All battleships were sunk by an island country’s roadbed aircraft. This situation where the warship’s air defense was not very strong continued for a period of time. Later, with the advancement of radar technology and the large-scale use of VT fuzes, this made the Allied naval battleships especially large The air defense of warships has improved in quality, and the United States has done the best among allied forces. This situation continued until the fat man crossed.
The Baltimore-class heavy cruiser was historically a heavy cruiser in the post-treaty era of the United States. It was also the first heavy cruiser built by the United States after it got rid of the treaty restrictions. Its armament and protection were relatively reasonable. One of the outstanding features of this class of heavy cruisers is excellent air defense. It is said that in the US Navy, the air defense capabilities of this class of heavy cruisers are second only to fast battleships such as North Carolina, South Dakota, and Iowa. Historically, this class of heavy cruisers were mostly used for escorting aircraft carriers in wars.
It can be said that it was a huge mistake for the compound sea monsters to focus their attack on the fleet composed of seven Baltimore-class heavy cruisers at this time. The seven Baltimores with excellent air defense capabilities can also use their combined skills. In this case Attacking Baltimore will never have any good results. What's more, the seven Baltimore-led heavy cruiser fleets are all composed of American warships. One of the outstanding features of American warships is that they are strong in air defense. It is better to attack justly than to attack this fleet. The power of the heavy cruiser fleet is limited by the hull constraints of the treaty era, whether it is the Seven Sisters of Kent or the Four Sisters of London.
Baltimore, who leads the heavy cruiser fleet of the iron-blooded forces, sent a message to the glorious ship mother that they do not need the support of the glorious ship mother, and the glorious ship mother can focus on other aspects. This is the result of the remote reminder of the iron king. This is because of the American ships. The mothers are a little arrogant. The iron king doesn’t want Baltimore’s arrogance to make the glorious ship’s wife upset. The British ship’s characteristics are also quite clear. If you can’t offend the British ship, don’t offend the British ship’s mother. Wang summed up the experience.
Although the Glorious Ship Mother did not intend to assist Baltimore, she still sent a carrier-based aircraft to observe the situation. It can be said that the strength of the seven Baltimore ships is stronger than the Kent Seven Sisters and the London Four Sisters. This is extremely remarkable. Achievement, you must know that the number is extremely important in the battle at sea. In the 29th day of Nelson’s Ruften Island naval battle, even if Scharnhorst Gneisenau has complete combat power and does not retreat, they are only sunk. There is no second way to go. Although the two sisters have an absolute advantage over the prestige in a complete state, once the eight destroyers of the prestige are in place, the two sisters will never escape, even if the displacement of the eight destroyers adds up. Less than half of Scharnhorst, but with the cooperation of prestige, these eight destroyers are deadly existence.
The Seven Sisters of Kent and the Four Sisters of London are a total of eleven heavy cruisers. You must know that these two levels of heavy cruisers have a deep relationship in history. What this world shows is that these two levels of heavy cruisers fought quite tacitly. From this It can be seen how powerful these seven Baltimore ships are, but this is impossible to demand. Baltimore has only fourteen ships in total, and there are seven ships in the iron-blooded forces. In addition to the two forces of justice and glory, Baltimore can be It is absolutely impossible for the two major forces of glory and justice to form such a powerful heavy cruiser group, even if the three Des Moines class heavy cruisers are all assembled.
Of course, the Glorious Ship Niang will not only observe Baltimore. Observing the battle conditions of the other two major power fleets is one of the important tasks for this time. The historical battleship-level heavy cruisers just don’t have the ability to use the combined skills, but in contrast, the glorious ship mother thinks that the glory force heavy cruiser fleet should be the most powerful one~EbookFREE.me~ the glory force heavy cruiser fleet There are three types that can use combined skills. Among them, the more powerful are the New Orleans-class heavy cruisers and the Kaohsiung-class heavy cruisers. The remaining Aoba-class heavy cruisers are relatively average. These three-level heavy cruisers are all They are all in the glory forces, unlike Baltimore. These three-tier heavy cruisers are all treaty heavy cruisers. Because of the restrictions of the Washington Naval Treaty, these three-tier heavy cruisers have some more or less problems, but in general, New Orleans and Kaohsiung is very powerful. Compared with these two heavy cruisers, the Aoba-class heavy cruisers are quite general. There are only two heavy cruisers of this class. Not to mention that the small hulls have brought many problems, but As the existence that can use the combined skills, Aoba is not strong, that is relatively speaking.
After observing a circle, the glorious ship mother found that the strength of the two historical battleship-class heavy cruisers of the two major forces of Iron and Glory is about the same. Although the seven Baltimores are strong, the iron and blood forces are only this level of historical battleships. The New Orleans, Kaohsiung, and Aoba three-tier heavy cruisers are not comparable to the seven Baltimores, but they are three heavy cruiser groups that can use combined skills, combined with other historical battleship-level heavy cruisers, which makes blood and glory. The historical battleship-class heavy cruisers of the two major forces are about the same strength and even the Glory force is stronger. Of course, in this battle, due to their skills, the seven Baltimore seem to be more threatening than the three heavy cruiser groups of the Glory force.
