Chapter 394: The mission of the German naval aviation


The large flight deck and excellent layout make the launch of the Zeppelin-class aircraft carrier-based aircraft very fast!
How fast is it?
Generally, a modified aircraft carrier has only one take-off runway and can only take off one aircraft at a time, while a specially manufactured aircraft carrier has two take-off runways and can take off two aircraft if the deck is wide enough.
What about the current Earl of Zeppelin? There are two runways on the bow deck and two runways on the angled deck, which can take off four fighter jets at the same time!
For one takeoff, it takes about ten seconds to release four planes. In one minute, twenty-four planes can be released. On the entire aircraft carrier, more than 70 carrier-based planes can be released in three minutes!
This kind of speed, if spread out, will definitely make the British envy.
Of course, this is a theoretical speed, and it is actually lower.
The first to take off is a pure fighter, with a low load, and can quickly climb and accelerate.
Then, it was the torpedo machine's turn.
Using the FW190 to hang torpedoes is a good plan. After the torpedoes are thrown, this fighter has enough ability to conduct air combat.
The T3 torpedo weighs 280 kilograms and is hung on the belly of the aircraft, which still has a certain impact on the aircraft's take-off and landing performance.
Lieutenant Colonel Prila, the commander of the torpedo attack, sat in his plane, looking at the runway in front, he was equally excited.
In the cockpit, the operating lever was shaking slightly, which was caused by the vibration of the engine. He shouted into the radio and shouted: "Torpedo attack squadron, request to take off."
"You can take off, I wish you all the best and return in triumph."
Pushing the throttle to the end, the 1800-horsepower star-shaped air-cooled engine in front made a roar, Lieutenant Colonel Prila released the brakes, and the torpedo-mounted aircraft quickly rolled into a run.
The speed is getting faster and faster, and the front deck is getting shorter and shorter.
"Not good!" At this moment, Colonel Langsdorf on the bridge suddenly felt a sinking heart.
The climate in the North Sea is quite bad. The warship has just turned headwind, but at this moment, a cross wind blows onto the deck.
The FW190 carrier-based aircraft that was taking off was immediately affected by this cross wind, and it had already deviated from the white take-off line on the deck while taxiing forward!
How to do?
At this time, if you brake hard, you may be able to stop, or you may fall into the sea.
Lieutenant Colonel Prila, at this time, also found that something was wrong, and the crosswind blew his plane's take-off direction away!
How to do?
Of course you can't stop!
Lieutenant Colonel Prila lowered his head and glanced at the airspeed indicator. The speed was still rising, but he had not reached the takeoff speed yet!
Come on! Lieutenant Colonel Prila shouted in his heart.
This hapless FW190, while continuing to accelerate, was leaning to the left, getting closer and closer to the side of the aircraft carrier.
Everyone stopped, looked at the front with worried eyes, and looked at their own plane.
When it was about to fall from the edge of the deck on the side, the front wheel had already been raised!
At this moment, Lieutenant Colonel Prila pulled his lever with all his strength to make the plane take off. He knew that he had reached the edge of the deck. If he could not take off, he would fall down!
The moment the wheel was pulled up, the fuselage of the plane had already left the deck.
If you look at it from the side, you can find that when the fuselage left the deck, it even jumped down more than ten centimeters, but it continued to fly forward, maintained its height, and then began to climb!
It's flying!
The take-off accident that almost happened was just before my eyes. The pilots in the back were not afraid, and the second and third one skidded onto the runway.
This is war. In a war, individuals are small. Even if the plane in front of you falls and enters the sea, they still have to take off. This is the mission of the German Naval Aviation!
Inside the bridge, Colonel Langsdorf nodded. What kind of general and what kind of soldiers he brought, his men were daring to fight.
"The Air Force has called. They have already begun the bombing and asked us to provide immediately." At this moment, the first officer reported to Colonel Langsdorf.
The Air Force and the Navy are two branches of the military. Although Goering has now become a vegetative in the hospital, there are still big problems in the communication between the Air Force and the Navy, and they cannot maintain a close relationship.
Now, the Air Force has begun bombing, but the Navy’s aircraft has just taken off, and the fastest fighter jet will take more than ten to twenty minutes to fly to the battlefield.
It's not that the Navy didn't work hard. They were already racing at extreme speed along the way, but they had to wait until dawn to release the carrier-based aircraft. After all, only 20% of the pilots have the ability to take off at night. As for the ability to land at night, even 5% of the pilots cannot achieve it.
"Tell the Air Force that our fighter jets will rush to the battlefield as soon as possible and provide battlefield air superiority." Colonel Langsdorf said.
Scapa Bay is stationed with old-fashioned planes. Those bombers, relying on the advantage of flying altitude, can throw off a large number of planes. It can be said that as long as the latest British Spitfire fighters do not move, the bombers are almost innocent.
And those Spitfire fighters are deployed near London, far away, as long as the communication of the other party is isolated, you can sit back and relax.
This is why the Air Force dared to dispatch only bombers.
Now, as the Navy releases carrier-based aircraft, this loophole will soon be closed.
A FW190 fighter, UU reading www.uukanshu. Com was carrying torpedoes and took off from the Earl Zeppelin aircraft carrier. The rear deck of the aircraft carrier gradually became empty.
The elevators arranged on the side began to lift up the aircraft in the hangar. When these aircraft were lifted, their wings were folded. When they were on the deck, the wings were quickly lowered.
German navy deck operators are also very efficient, and they have exploded with great potential during this kind of battle.
The first batch was the FW190 fleet, including combat and torpedo aircraft, and the second batch was attack aircraft.
The Stuka bomber is quite reliable. It is the main carrier-borne bomber of the German Navy, but now, the one that has been upgraded to the deck is completely different from the Stuka.
Several crew members are quickly putting down the folded wings. You can see that this aircraft is an engine. It is on both sides of the wing. There are two engines!
The front end of the nose has a fairly large downward inclination angle, which gives the pilots in the cockpit a good looking down angle. This is a layout that cannot be achieved by the fighters of the single-posting bureau of the nose. At this time, the nose of this aircraft is still painted. It became like the teeth of a terrible shark.
This aircraft, up to now, is still a confidential project. The latest German aircraft developed specifically for ground attack, HS-129.
