Torpedoes are always faced with many problems in actual combat. For example, if the volume of torpedoes is too large, its resistance in water will become larger, and the requirements for buoyancy will be improved. It will become very difficult to design heavy torpedoes.

It not only needs a high-pressure air chamber with automatic pressure regulation to ensure its buoyancy, but also has independent thermal power capacity to maintain stronger driving force, which are the difficulties of design.

However, if the size of the torpedo is reduced and its shape is changed, it can indeed move forward quickly and steadily in the water, but its damage will become very limited.

Forty pound torpedoes may cause damage to some warships. Most of the breakdown below the waterline comes from torpedoes, but countries also have a corresponding method, that is, segmented closed bottom silos.

Unfortunately, a place was punctured, so they quickly closed the hatch of the place so that water would not flow into the hull.

After closure, the waterline of the ship will change and the speed will also change. After all, the breach will form vortex and reduce the speed, but there will be no further change.

If the power of torpedoes is increased, the problems will become more and more complex. In actual naval warfare, both sides are often not given the opportunity to launch torpedoes at close range. Compared with long-distance gambling, the main research and development direction of various countries is still on artillery.

But this time they are faced with improved torpedoes, more gunpowder, more reasonable design, and more accurate and stable launch guidance. These torpedoes will bring great trouble.

The gavra adjusted the battle order at the first time. They took the expulsion of the federal assault formation as the main goal. In case their torpedoes could sink even the battleships, it would be a great sin to let them come.

Gavra people are very arrogant when they are proud, but when they are careful, they will become extra cautious.

This also gave the Federal Navy a chance to breathe, and the rear quickly readjusted to actively deal with the current complex naval situation.

At this moment, those submarines like ghosts, out of sight, have come close to the gavra position.

With the arrival of the scheduled battle site, the first submarine fired two torpedoes towards their target, the battleship Guardian knight.

After scientific and technological improvement, a level is added to the head and tail of the torpedo. Their function is to constantly adjust the torpedo angle. When the level changes, there will be a dynamic instrument inside the torpedo to adjust the center of gravity and change the forward angle.

At the same time, there is a small hole in the front end of the torpedo, which will release air intermittently. These bubbles can also improve the speed of the torpedo and make it more stable.

Underwater torpedo launching was very hidden. It didn't surface until the torpedo approached the battleship Guardian knight. Looking at the torpedo shooting straight at the ship, the soldiers in charge of observation immediately gave an alarm, but it was too late.

The huge water column suddenly rose, followed by the second water column. After improvement, the new torpedo with twice the dose of the mainstream torpedo directly brought qualitative changes.

After the shock wave caused by the explosion pushed the battleship Guardian Knight laterally for more than ten meters, the hull tilted significantly.

A torpedo hit the middle and front of the port side of the guardian knight. The moment the sea water poured in, the engine crew stopped the fire. At the same time, the explosion gap was too large, the seawater poured back too fast, and the sealed cabin door could not be closed within one minute after the explosion.

The damage of the battleship Guardian Knight immediately triggered the panic of the gavra people, followed by all kinds of sudden sudden sudden deaths!

After the submarine was equipped with improved torpedoes, it can be said that the torpedoes after the update iteration showed amazing results at the first appearance.

After a brief shock, the military observers immediately became excited because they found that the powerful and invincible gavra Royal Navy was defeated by submarines and torpedoes!

If they still don't know why the federals have to drag a group of submarines that often only appear in offshore and inland river engineering operations to eliminate "Pirates", they are too stupid.

These countries of military observers may find it difficult to catch up with gavra's naval strength on the issue of battleships, but they can also take the edge of the Baylor Federal Navy and use submarines and torpedoes as offensive means.

Torpedoes can cause obvious battle damage to battleships, which means that battleships will no longer be invincible at sea!

Before today, people believed that only the battleship itself could defeat the battleship, but now it is different. This is a cross era innovation!

The ghosts hidden under the water attack the defenseless warships. Those people don't even know why they were attacked. Those enemies are far away from them!

But the war will not stop because they are injured. The gavra warships whose speed is limited and even the engine stops in place are like targets.

Federal soldiers may not be very good at hitting enemy ships moving the same way, but they are very good at shooting.

Without too much scattering, the next volley was very accurate. Four warships were named in a row, and after multiple shells hit the battleship Guardian knight, which was like a trapped animal, the other party raised a white flag.

They surrendered.

There is no need to let more than half of the main fleet sink here for a tentative naval battle, a naval battle originally to show off the strength of the Navy.

Although their boats are miserable, in fact, they can be used again after being towed back for repair.

The soldiers of the Federal Navy cheered that they won the war in unexpected ways, but it is undeniable that the strength of the gavra Royal Navy is beyond doubt.

Had it not been for the feats of submarines and new torpedoes, it was likely that the Federal Navy would eventually have to retreat and flee the sea. In this frontal war, they were not opponents of the Royal Navy of gavra.

But they won and they cheered for the victory.

But at this time, the commander in chief of the Federal Navy Fleet did not show much smile. He was thinking about a problem.

Everyone in the command room was waiting for his decision whether to continue the fight or let gavra's Navy go.

The commander-in-chief hesitated. The naval battle told him that they did have an obvious strength gap with the gavra Navy.

Submarines and torpedoes changed this situation and let them win, but what about next time?

The exposure of submarines and torpedoes will definitely attract the attention of all countries. They will focus on submarine research and anti submarine research.

Once they have the appropriate anti submarine equipment and the role of submarines is reduced in the frontal sea battle, what will they use to defeat the gavra Navy next time?

Use your face to pick up shells to defeat these terrible enemies?

Therefore, after gavra's warship raised the white flag, the General Commander did not immediately lift the state of war. The soldiers still stuck to their posts. He was weighing.

At the same time, a voice in his heart told him that if he completely destroyed the fleet now, it would be a fatal blow to gavra.

Without one main fleet, one of their remaining main fleet must guard near their homeland all the time to prevent hostile forces from directly attacking their homeland.

Then the naval power they can freely use at sea will become extremely limited, and gavra's influence in the world will decline.

It is difficult to rebuild a new main fleet in a few years. It may take them at least six to eight years to restore the current fleet size

Six to eight years of development opportunities, too tempting.

The commander looked at all the officers and generals in the command room and pursed his lips. "I am a sinner. All the orders today come from me. When I go back, I will accept the ruling of the military court!"

He paused and waited for others to react. He went to the command platform and ordered the operator to say, "inform all ships to continue the attack and be sure to completely eliminate these pirates here!"

On the other side, gavra people are sending various lifeboats to rescue those drowning sailors who have not died on the water. These sailors are gavra's most precious wealth.

Each of them has experienced a hundred battles and has combat experience and stable psychological quality that others can't match.

If the warship is broken, repair it. The death of these sailors is the biggest loss. It is difficult to train a group of qualified sailors in peacetime.

At this time, gavra's commander was also summarizing the gains and losses of the battle. He was very generous. No matter how angry, afraid, uneasy and hated he was, he would not show it.

Just as he was talking about asking for the emperor's guilt in person, he suddenly looked at the ships across the battlefield.

The clouds in the air changed a little, and then the dense shells fell on the battleship!

The battleship Guardian knight was completely lost in response to the fire. Other ships were more or less damaged. They were unable to escape quickly.

A large number of soldiers are still fighting fire and rescuing. They never thought that after raising the white flag, the other party would continue to bombard them!

It was a real massacre, but there was no blood. All the bodies and fragments of warships sank to the bottom of the sea.

The military observers in the periphery stared round. Anyway, they all realized that something big was going to happen!

The defeat of the gavra Royal Navy is a major event. What's more terrible is that the federates are crazy. On the premise that they have harvested the fruits of victory, they still annihilated almost all gavra warships. Do they want to start a new round of war?

If it is true, how do you choose?

The military observation ship quickly indicated its identity and harmlessness, and quickly retreated. It would be bad if the federals were hot headed and thought they should stay.

Calm gradually returned to the sea. That night, almost all important figures in the Federation who had something to do with national defense were awakened by the news.

Some people even feel despair, because the war seems to be coming soon!
