Chapter 1472: Steam catapult

Lexington’s huge advantage is her angled flight deck. This is the biggest difference in Lexington in this world. It can be said that the deck of only one aircraft carrier in this world is the angled deck. The advantage of this deck is Obviously, the tall fat man has seen it in many previous battles, but due to the different circumstances, this time the tall fat man really saw the huge advantage of this flight deck. It can be said that the tall fat man thinks this is Lexington in this world. The reason for the strength of the aircraft carrier is that Mrs. Lex doesn't have to be much worse than Lexington in other aspects, but it is the flight deck that has some combat effectiveness.
The existence of the angled flight deck allows Lexington to support the fleet on this side while supporting the four sisters of Iowa. The fleet organized by other aircraft carriers is a large wave, organized by Lexington. The carrier-based aircraft are all eight carrier-based aircraft in a wave. There are many reasons for this. In fact, due to time issues and other reasons, the number of carrier-based aircraft that Lexington supports the four sisters of Iowa is not very large. , Lexington’s main combat power was placed in the fleet here, while the other Mrs. Lex and the Glorious Empress, who followed her to support the four sisters of Iowa, could not do this.
In fact, the Lexington battle is quite different from other aircraft carriers. Lexington’s carrier-based aircraft cannot take off without the use of a catapult, and because of the catapult problem, Lexington has always been out of the battle. In the process of acceleration and deceleration, it is a more complicated task to cooperate with Lexington. Even the battleships that follow Lexington in the Glory Forces are fixed. This time, Lexington came by himself because of the urgency. This puts a lot of demands on the warships of the justice forces responsible for escorting Lexington. It seems that the current work of the justice forces is not doing very well.
The catapult used by Lexington is a steam catapult. The steam catapult used by the American aircraft carrier before the fat man crossed was mainly used by the US aircraft carrier. The electromagnetic catapult has not yet been fully established. This steam catapult is stronger than those of its predecessors. But it also has many huge problems.
Steam catapults require massive amounts of steam. These steams are provided by the power system. This brings about a problem. Because the aircraft carrier's own power is steam power, the steam catapult using massive amounts of steam will inevitably affect the speed of the aircraft carrier. In the world before the fat man crossed, the speed of the US Nimitz-class aircraft carrier would drop from 30 knots to 22 knots after ejecting eight carrier-based aircraft. It will drop below 20 knots. When the aircraft carrier's speed drops to a certain extent, it will affect the deck wind provided, which makes it not easy for the carrier-based aircraft to take off and affect its own combat effectiveness. If it is a catapult carrier-based aircraft The excessive number makes the aircraft carrier's own speed become very slow and easy to be attacked by the enemy. Therefore, under normal circumstances, the U.S. military ejects eight carrier-based aircraft at a time, and ejects twelve carrier-based aircraft in an emergency to ensure the carrier’s safety. speed.
In the world before the fat man crossed, there were negative examples of steam catapults. The French aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle was the largest negative example. Although nuclear power was used, the power of Charles de Gaulle was seriously insufficient because only two nuclear submarines used reactors. It is very doubtful that Charles de Gaulle, whose speed is less than 27 knots, can eject several gusts in one attack. It can be said that steam ejection is a disaster if the power system is insufficient.
It can be said that Lexington, which uses steam catapults, has this problem. However, as an American aircraft carrier in history, Lexington does not have the problem of insufficient power. However, due to the importance of aircraft carriers in this world, other aircraft carriers are also in battle. Not slowing down and accommodating Lexington This poses a big problem for the formation, but the advantage of the steam catapult carrier aircraft is extremely huge, and the steam catapult can make the Lexington carrier aircraft have a longer combat distance. To carry more ammunition, you must know that Lexington’s carrier-based aircraft can strike accurately. It is foreseeable how terrible Lexington’s carrier-based aircraft with high ammunition capacity is. It can be said that Lexington is not easy to serve but powerful. There is nothing to say. Although there were problems caused by poor cooperation in this battle, it was really strong.
When I saw Lexington’s tall and fat man, I thought of Miss Dignity. It is impossible for the glorious ship’s mother to use jet aircraft and have such a steam catapult. But Miss Dignity is different. You must know that the steam catapult was invented in Britain in history. Miss Dignity has a steam catapult in history, and Miss Dignity in history is the first aircraft carrier obtained by the fatherland of the tall fat man. UU看书www.uukanshu． Com is also an aircraft carrier with a complete steam catapult. In other words, if there is no accident in the future, Miss Dignity is also an aircraft carrier that uses a steam catapult with a beveled flight deck, but it has been built for so many years. Miss Dignity is connected to this aspect. There are no signs of walking.
With the support of Lexington, the fleet looks okay, because Lexington’s precision strikes are extraordinary. Many precision guided bombs used by Lexington are ground penetrating bombs. It is used to deal with the existence of permanent reinforced concrete buildings built below the ground. Such bombs are quite expensive and effective. In this world, this is the most powerful attack method in Lexington, let alone these monsters like the Queen. It is recognized that the best defenses in the world are somewhat unable to cope with attacks of this level in Lexington, and these non-sea monsters are not super-emperor monsters.
From this, it can be seen that Lexington is really fighting seriously this time. When the three major forces fought before, Lexington actually participated in the war and rarely used this kind of ground bomb. This time it can be seen that such a large number of use. Lexington’s seriousness can be drawn. It should be understood that this type of ground penetration bomb is much more expensive than the missiles of the Four Iowa sisters. In fact, it is not only Lexington, but Mrs. Lex also used her own special bomb. Mrs. Lex is particularly knowledgeable about arson. This may be due to the fact that Mrs. Lex in history abandoned the ship because the fire was out of control. This makes Mrs. Lex in this world extremely enthusiastic about arson and is also a top arson master. The lack of tacit understanding made Mrs. Lex not want to waste her valuable incendiary bomb. This time Mrs. Lex also started setting fire to the monster just like Lexington.
