Chapter 475: Bruce's counterattack


The torpedo is launched from the carrier plane and falls freely, and the speed at which it enters the water is the speed of the water. The entry angle refers to the angle between the mine body and the water surface when the torpedo head enters the water. These two factors directly determine whether the torpedo can work normally after entering the water.
After all, the structural strength of the torpedo is limited. If the torpedo is inserted directly into the water at an excessively large entry speed and angle, it may damage the internal structure or damage the shell, and the shallow water may touch the seabed.
Too small an angle of entry and a too high speed will cause the torpedo to "float" on the water surface, which will even cause the torpedo to be destroyed.
At present, the most common Mk.II torpedo in the UK is best placed at a standard height of 40 meters and a speed of 260kmh, which matches the swordfish.
Therefore, Bruce does not need to aim directly at the opponent, but to aim at the opponent's throwing route and fire!
Bruce does all this skillfully.
In the distance, the torpedo was also making final preparations before launch.
Ted's attack angle was right. When the flares were on, he saw the target in the goggles. Then, slowly pushed away the goggles, his eyes adjusted to the strong light, and he had entered the final attack route!
Continue to fly forward, lower the altitude, push the nose, and let the torpedo enter the water at a suitable angle!
This is simply a perfect attack!
Let the torpedo launch normally at an angle of 14 degrees!
Ted counted silently in his heart, and in five seconds, he could leave.
At this moment, there was a fierce flame on the opposing warship. It was an anti-aircraft gun firing!
Fire!
Bruce stepped on the trigger, and in the sound of the tom tom, the 40mm Bofors antiaircraft gun, the muzzle of fire burst out.
Among the three grenade rounds, one tracer armor-piercing projectile was mixed, so now the trajectory can be clearly seen, and Bruce knew that he would definitely hit it!
"Boom!" A 40mm grenade accurately hit the swordfish's nose, smashed the propeller, and got into the engine behind.
Ted couldn't believe it at this time, when the other side opened fire, just like this? how can that be?
There was black smoke from the engine in front, and he never had a chance to throw a torpedo again. Before the plane was about to fall, he quickly jumped out of his cockpit.
The open cockpit makes it the easiest to jump!
In fact, in this dark night, jumping to the monkey, the chance of surviving is not great, but after all, it is better than directly falling with the plane.
Simply and neatly, one shot fired 12 shells and killed a British torpedo machine!
Bruce didn't hesitate at all, the master direction the machine, and soon, he aimed at another torpedo machine and fired again!
The dense shells flew towards the torpedo machine. When they found fire here, the sword torpedo machine dropped the torpedo directly, then lowered the operating lever, flew at a height of several meters, and the chair shook. The ground escaped Bruce's attack.
"Good job!" said the commander on the gun stand beside Bruce. At this time, his eyes had adapted to the light of the flares, and the burning fireball that blew up, indicating that Bruce had just killed the opponent at the critical moment. Flying torpedo machine!
Without Bruce, the consequences would be disastrous!
At this time, the other antiaircraft artillery positions finally started firing!
"Tom tom, tom tom tom." 40mm anti-aircraft artillery shells are flying in the sky, with flames flying out, in the air, marking a beautiful trajectory. If you look from the outside, you can find this The Deutsche Deutschland at that time has become a hedgehog!
The sixteen Bofors 40mm anti-aircraft guns are quite powerful. Now that they have full firepower, it is very difficult for any aircraft to break through its firepower net!
Although the torpedo does not need to be very close, it is still within the control range of the Bofors anti-aircraft gun and it also has a 105mm anti-aircraft gun!
The sky gradually dimmed, and the time for the flares to burn was limited. Just when the surroundings were about to darken, the second flares were released.
The whole sky is illuminated again.
Almost at the same time, the 105mm anti-aircraft artillery on the Deutschland also fired at the sky.
"Boom, boom!" The 105mm shell flew into the sky, even without searchlights, the light of the flares can cover the swordfish throwing the flares!
In the sky, a big fireball, a 105mm high-explosive projectile, directly exploded the swordfish!
The light of the flares was still there, which happened to provide guidance to the German artillery. They attacked fiercely, and another swordfish fell from the sky!
Of the 12 swordfishes that attacked, three have already been lost. Generally speaking, they should give up their attacks.
However, they did not give up!
When the light of the flares dimmed again, their attack began!
At this time, the Deutsche Vessel had nowhere to hide. It could only turn on the searchlight and illuminate the sky around it~EbookFREE.me~. In the space of the searchlight, the remaining swordfish launched an exclamation suicide. Sexual attack!
"Tom tom, tom tom!" Bruce was still firing. This time, with the help of searchlights, his antiaircraft artillery shells once again hit a swordfish attack aircraft!
The other party was burning and falling towards the bake. In the burning flame of this swordfish, Bruce was surprised to see that in another piece of darkness, another swordfish had already dropped the torpedo!
"Attention, there are torpedoes coming!" Bruce shouted loudly, "Starboard, three hundred meters away!"
There are torpedoes!
After receiving this alert, Stanger immediately ordered full left rudder and full speed, but still did not escape!
"Boom!" This torpedo exploded violently in the rear of the Deutsche Bahn!
For any warship, the armor protection on the upper surface of the water is important, and the protection below the waterline is not strong, but a torpedo can still be carried down hard!
The explosion caused the death of three sailors, the diesel unit at the rear was damaged and the speed of the ship slowed down.
On the warship, everyone had a surviving sigh. They suffered from air strikes at night and the pressure was much greater than during the day. Although they had taken adequate protective measures, they were still caught by a torpedo!
"Thank you for your help." At the position of the anti-aircraft artillery, the German commander said to Bruce: "Your heroic action, I will report to your superiors. You may even get an Iron Cross for this action. "
Bruce Trolling: "The danger has not passed. Now, our speed is slow, and the other party may catch up and attack."
At this time, on the bridge, Colonel Stanger was also on the same alert: "Pay attention to the whole ship, and be ready for battle at any time. All 283mm naval guns are loaded with armor-piercing shells!"
