To be honest, if you sum up the German military services, the least innovative service, it must be the naval aviation. The army's tanks have been updated from the leopard to the Tiger King improved type; the air force has also used the me9 jet fighter from fw190d; But the navy's carrier aircraft is still the navy of the fw190, and the dive bomber is still the Stuka instead of the Stuka 2 type.
There are many reasons for this result. For example, the Navy is relatively undervalued, and the design of the carrier aircraft is more complicated, so that it cannot be updated in a short period of time, but the conclusion is actually simpler. To put it bluntly, there is no time. money.
The first generation of carrier-based aircraft used by the German Navy was actually modified based on the fw190 and Stuka used by the Air Force, but when the performance of the army aircraft is higher, the aircraft is larger and the design is more professional, this sea and land is eaten. The design cannot meet the needs. The ta152 fighter's performance after the experiment was desperate, not to mention the advanced jet fighter.
So this time the air battle for the Icelandic naval battle may be said to be the confrontation between the Allies and the Germans with the smallest power gap. The improved P40 Rolls-Royce with enhanced power performance, against the naval version of fw190, although the German navy aircraft is slightly ahead in performance, it is far from the point of difference.
When the fleets of both sides approached the distance where the other reconnaissance plane was found, Dudley Bond and Redel actually knew that the naval battle could not be avoided. The difference is that Dudley Bond desperately confirmed the fact that the contact code of the Allied forces had been determined to have been successfully deciphered by the Germans.
"Top hat 2 calls the brain! Top hat 2 calls the brain! Hear, please answer!" In a noisy aircraft cockpit, a German reconnaissance pilot fled from the entanglement of a p40 combat reconnaissance aircraft in the sky, and two aircraft were in the clouds In the tumbling chase, it is possible to be shot down by the opponent at any time to become the first record of this naval battle. 【ㄨ】
"Here is the brain! Hear, please answer!" The voice of the operator of the carrier carrier contact center was heard in the headset. The German pilot once again shook the joystick and drilled into the clouds: "I was taken by an American Fighters are entangled! Single-shot fighters! Should come from the opposing carrier fleet! "
Hearing the news, the German naval officer on duty standing next to the radio checked the chart in his hand, and then grabbed the liaison officer ’s microphone: "Tangle each other! This will send someone to support you!"
Then he pressed his finger to the place where the air battle took place on the chart, and walked to another radio station: "Let the two newly-launched reconnaissance planes rush to this coordinate and trail this American aircraft, trying to find the exact location of the opposing fleet!"
In the command room next door, a radio was next to a radio, and an officer was anxiously waiting for the latest news in his place. He asked from time to time whether there was any relevant news: "The submarine force also returned Is there no sound? A submarine has not heard about the position of the enemy fleet? "
"Long live the head of state! Marshal! The exact position of the opposing fleet has not been found so far! Would you like to adjust the course and continue westward?" The naval officer with the rank of major general on his shoulder stood behind Riddle and Lutjens , Lizheng salute reported the news just confirmed.
Redell heard the questions from his men and looked at Lütjens. He knew that he could not have as much Lütjens talking about the battle experience of aircraft carriers, so he was more willing to listen to Lütjens. After all, the other party had commanded the Battle of the English Channel: "What do you think?"
"My Excellency Marshal! We must sail against the wind and change our course rashly, which will put us at a disadvantage when taking off the fighter jet." . "
After hearing Lütjens's suggestion, Rydell nodded and said nothing. The major general who came to the interview also understood the next task. He issued a command to keep the course in a loud voice: "Keep Heading! Watch out for anti-submarine detection! "
Compared with the United States and the British navy, the Germans have an absolute advantage in radar technology, so German commanders are also happy to rely on this advantage. If Germany is looking for someone with a flashlight in the dark, then the United States and the United Kingdom can only be counted as two night blindness patients who smear at night.
Despite this, Lütjens still feared these two powerful opponents. He said to Rydell that maintaining the course before noon was actually a disguised way of telling Rydell his attitude: after noon, the fleet should find a way To avoid maneuvering in advance of the night battle.
Although the German navy has achieved initial results with fixed-angle lights to take off and land at night, the German navy is still reluctant to fight at night. After all, as an upstart in Germany, there is still a large gap between the traditional subjects of night warfare and artillery warfare.
Compared with the somewhat naughty German Navy, the Allied fleet under the command of Dudley Bond is actually not as good as the fleet under the command of Lütjens on the other. The British veteran is using a skillful turn to deceive the German fleet as far as possible within the combat radius of shore-based fighters.
"Already encountered the carrier aircraft of the German Navy. Yes! General! One of our planes was shot down, and one of them was going around!" The head of the naval air force stood behind Dudley Bond, facing this The old general reported on the battle that just took place: "The destroyer Monto seems to have discovered whether the German submarine is accurate or not, and further confirmation is needed."
"Gentlemen! The Germans deciphered our contact code, there is no doubt about it, so this time we may have to face each other's 7 aircraft carriers, and we must act with caution!" Dudley Pound confronted the bridge The commanders on the line encouraged: "Take out your Nelson spirit and fight for His Majesty the King!"
He said with a scornful laughter: "Look, in fact we have good news! As long as the German fleet is wiped out here, we have reversed the whole war situation, haven't we?"
His words made all officers and sailors on the bridge laugh, the original atmosphere was broken, and everyone regained confidence in the victory. As a loss control commander, George took a glance at Dudley Bond on his post and felt that this battle was really possible under the leadership of this general to create a new miracle belonging to the Royal Navy.
"Let the attack aircraft mount the torpedo! The warships outside the fleet are ready for air defense!" Dudley, while putting on his life jacket handed by his assistant, issued an order to prepare for combat: "Give Ramirez and Elizabeth The battleship Queen sends a light signal! Let them prepare for the battle. If we entangle the enemy until the evening, maybe they are the key to winning or losing! "
At 9 a.m., a battle alarm sounded in the cabin of every battleship in the British fleet. All the sailors began to get busy. The artillery was prepared by the command sound, and the anti-aircraft guns were all pointed at the clear sky. The sea breeze blows on everyone's face, with an intoxicating moist and astringent fragrance.
"The fighter plane with the auxiliary fuel tank started to take off! The formation above the fleet!" A commander with a notepad shouted loudly on the deck, the pilots started to rush to their planes, and the ground crew was finally checking each one. The state of the aircraft. These improved American fighters fought fiercely on the Pacific battlefield with Japanese Zero fighters, but now they have to face a more powerful enemy.
"Eagle 1, ready! Take off!" Seeing the ground crew help launch the plane's propellers, the engine's tremor and the sounds were normal. The pilot sitting in the cockpit confirmed the command tower by radio.
"Eagle 1! Allow takeoff!" In the headset, the sound of approval for takeoff came, and then his own wingman. The application for takeoff of Eagle 2 was immediately approved without incident. One fighter after another flew into the sky, and quickly formed a neat flight formation over the Allied fleet.
"General Dudley Bond! The anti-aircraft fighter formations have taken off! The radar shows that the first wave of German attack aircraft seems to be on the way!" The naval aviation commander who had prepared everything stood in Dar Standing next to General Delipound, Lizheng Jinglihui reported: "We have made all preparations, and the outcome will depend on the next few hours!"
Dudley Bond nodded, and then turned his gaze to the distant sea surface, where was a destroyer of the Royal Navy, a light signal was flashing on the mast: "No German submarine was found!"
On the bridge of the German Navy ’s USS Imperial, Lütjens received the report of the takeoff attack fleet from his aviation commander. He glanced at it and nodded and signed his name:
Immediately let The second batch of attack planes mounted torpedoes and bombs. After 25 minutes, they took off immediately without asking to attack the formation of allied ships! "
"Isn't it confirmed how many aircraft carriers are in the Allied fleet?" Redell looked at his men worriedly and asked what he was most concerned about. He knew the gap between the aircraft carrier strength of the two sides determined the ultimate victory or defeat of this naval battle, so he must ask such a sentence, he must be responsible for his navy.
