When the aircraft carrier is at full rudder at full speed, the warship’s hull will tilt sharply. For example, now, in order to avoid the opponent’s first round of firing, the Bayern’s right full rudder and the warship’s deck also follow. It has tilted.
how many? Fifteen degrees! At the same time, because the deck on the top of the lift was originally raised, in this case, the reconnaissance plane on the deck was immediately thrown into the sea following the shaking of the deck!
When feeling the tilt of the warship, the pilot of the carrier-based aircraft was already desperate!
He couldn't perform any operations. Even if he wanted to take off quickly, it was impossible. After he exclaimed, the plane slid into the sea!
At this time, even if he jumps out of the cabin, he won't have any good endings. He will still slip into the sea, which is even more terrible. If he knocks down any part of the deck, he will definitely be injured.
In this way, with the machine gunner behind him, along with this biplane reconnaissance plane, fell into the sea!
At this moment, from the bridge, you can see the tragic ending of the reconnaissance plane, and at this time, a trace of shame flashed in the eyes of Captain Gelari, and after a while, he became firm again. .
There is no time. They have to dodge. Losing an airplane is more terrifying than losing the entire aircraft carrier.
Therefore, when General Labaud gave the order, he did not raise any objections. Whatever should be sacrificed must be sacrificed.
As a commander, this is a quality that must be possessed. At certain times, when certain people must be sacrificed, then one must make a decision and not be indecisive.
The reconnaissance plane had been abandoned, and they didn't have time to save the pilot who fell into the water. They could only let him fend for himself.
While the aircraft carrier on this side completed a turn, the Earl of Spey over there had completed its first test launch.
"Boom!" The shooting of the 283 mm naval gun was also quite spectacular, with brilliant fire from the muzzle of the naval gun, and hundreds of kilograms of armor-piercing shells flew towards the opposite side.
The quality of the German Navy is quite good. Now, that shell is on the route of the Bayern. If the Bayern did not turn in time, it would even be hit in the first launch!
On the bridge, Captain Ransdorf looked at the French battleship in the distance, with a cold calmness on his face: "Right full rudder!"
The opponent already has a full rudder right, if you don't want to lose the target, you can only follow the full rudder right.
French, still want to escape? With ironic thoughts in his heart, just when the opponent turned the corner, he finally reduced the speed he had accumulated, and when the opponent was still advancing at a snail-like speed, he was already able to catch up.
"Quick, quick, quick!" Here, the French airmen have also begun to work hard. For them, every second of time is precious!
The top deck was fully opened, the hydraulic cylinder reached its maximum power, and the lift lifted the two-wing Levasser pl2 carrier torpedo.
Mount the torpedo!
They are quickly mounting torpedoes and adjusting various parameters. The pilots are also quickly preparing for departure, flipping various switches to prepare to start the engine.
"Buzz, buzz." As a puff of black smoke came out and the engine was started, the pilot looked out from the cockpit, and saw that the ground crew was still busy, preparing to mount the torpedo.
Don't know how long to wait?
(France had an aircraft carrier before World War II, and the torpedo was also an old-fashioned biplane. In this era, Britain is still using swordfish, and France will not be more advanced than the United Kingdom. The only single-wing navy is the Dewatina 520 fighter jet. The version, 790 type fighter, this thing is a fighter, can’t hang torpedoes, can attack surface ships, now it’s also a biplane torpedo.
"The speed is not enough to take off the carrier-based aircraft." Colonel Gellari said.
The turn just made them lose five knots of speed, and after turning, it turned out to be a tailwind!
How to take off?
Just taking off a fighter jet is probably not enough. If you carry a torpedo, it must have just left the deck and you will have to fall into the sea!
No, it is impossible.
Labold has firmness on his face: "No, take off immediately!"
You can't wait any longer, you must take off immediately. As long as your carrier-based aircraft takes off, the Germans may be scared away. After all, torpedo aircraft pose a strong threat to warships.
This is their only way, can't wait any longer!
"031 takes off immediately." At this time, the pilot on the deck received a command from the headset. After receiving this command, he had no choice but to push the throttle lever to maximize the engine's horsepower.
Then, the blocking block below was removed, and under the command of the deck personnel, the carrier aircraft began to roll on the deck.
The throttle has been pushed to the maximum, the pilot watched the deck in front of him get shorter and shorter, and his speed was simply not enough!
After mounting the torpedo, the plane slowed down even more.
Everyone ~www.novelhall.com~ is also looking at the plane with attention. When it flew slowly to the front of the deck, it really fell off!
The take-off speed is certain and is not affected by human will. No matter how firm they are, the plane still falls down!
On the bridge, everyone was silent. When the launch of the carrier-based aircraft failed, they had no countermeasures. Are they going to surrender?
No, absolutely not! Thinking of carrying 197 tons of gold on the aircraft carrier, he would never agree to surrender, even if he sinks in the end, he would not surrender!
At this moment, suddenly, in front of the deck, an airplane appeared. All of a sudden, everyone cheered, took off, took off!
The pilot squeezed a cold sweat.
When the plane left the deck, he felt bad. The plane was like a big rock and wanted to fall downward, but then, suddenly, a blast of air appeared suddenly, dragging the plane abruptly. At this time, The landing gear of the plane was in contact with the sea. Finally, it stood up with difficulty, and then it started to fly forward!
He succeeded!
"Continue to take off the carrier-based aircraft!" Labold seems to know everything well. Now, before the Germans have fired the cannon, he hurriedly released the carrier-based aircraft by himself!
Wait, why don't the Germans fire?
What are the Germans waiting for?
The Earl of Spey, who was in full fighting spirit, was about to rush up at this time and continue to bombard the opponent with naval guns. They would not care about the take-off of the opponent’s several carrier aircraft. They were fully confident that they would sink the opponent, especially Right now, the opponent's speed is only about 10 knots, which is almost like a fixed target.
However, with the telegram sent from Berlin just now, Captain Ransdorf was confused. Mobile users please browse and read for a better reading experience.
