"Pylon failure, unable to drop bombs!" Shouted the bomber in front.

In the fierce gunfire, they dive down to drop bombs, which is very dangerous. Therefore, the bombers are more focused at this moment. Their bombers carry two 500 kg bombs. As long as they drop, they will certainly seriously injure the aircraft carrier or even sink!

However, at this critical moment, it was found that the bomb could not be dropped, which was the most unwanted news.

Long live the Soviet!

Alexander shouted. At this moment, the remaining two knew what Alexander was going to do.

They have no choice.

The loss of the Black Sea fleet is quite large. They have paid so much sacrifice, and of course the enemy has to pay the price.

But now?

The German fleet is still intact. They are the only plane to enter the airspace of the German fleet. They must achieve results!

Since you can't drop a bomb, just go down with the bomb!

Alexander's eyes remained firm, and the other two shouted together, "long live the Soviet!"

The IL-4 bomber swooped down quickly towards the escort carrier, getting closer and closer to the rear deck.

"Boom!" The 40mm high explosive grenade hit one wing of the IL-4 bomber, the wing broke instantly, and the IL-4 bomber continued to roll.

"Right full rudder!" Shouted the captain.

The speed of the escort aircraft carrier is not high. The take-off carrier aircraft mainly rely on ejection. Now, its steering is not fast enough. The burning IL-4 bomber fell on the back deck of the escort aircraft carrier.

"Boom!"

The nose first touched the deck, and the pilot inside the nose was squeezed into meat cakes. Then, the fuselage also hit, and the triggered bomb finally exploded.

A huge flame emerged from the tail of the escort aircraft carrier and soon burned.

"Come on, damage control!" Shouted the captain.

Several high-pressure water columns poured on the deck. The sailors risked their lives and began to put out fire for the aircraft carrier. Unfortunately, the escort aircraft carrier was caught, which was the only loss this time.

On the Stuttgart, looking at the fire here, lieutenant general mashar's eyes flashed complex feelings.

A missed fish has brought such great losses to our side. Even if the escort aircraft carrier extinguishes the fire, I'm afraid it will have to return to its home port for maintenance. If the Soviet bombers are overwhelming, it's really difficult to resist. The other side's attack timing is too opportune.

At the same time, he was glad that he was right when he first made the plan. If he had not blown up their bomber base first, his formation would have been a little too big and ran to someone else's door to block the door.

Of course, there are other situations. The escort aircraft carrier is not an attack aircraft carrier. In order to carry more carrier based aircraft, its air defense facilities are quite weak. If the other party dared to dive into its own Stuttgart, its dense air defense fire would have turned it into a burning fireball.

The Soviet bomber force has been cleaned up.

"We received a report from the Italian fleet that they did not block the Soviet fleet. After exchanging fire with the Soviet fleet, the Black Sea Fleet broke through their blockade. Now the remaining warships of the Black Sea fleet are coming towards our main fleet."

Hearing the adjutant's report, lieutenant general mashar's expression on his face was even more strange. The green veins on his hands burst: "these noodle soldiers!"

The battleships with a displacement of 30000 tons, with more than a dozen warships large and small, went to intercept the largest fleet of only 10000 tons of heavily patrolled Soviets, but they were also broken through by others?

Do these Italians really only eat spaghetti?

Fred bergton was excited when he said, "general, it seems that we have to send out. As long as we have a Stuttgart, we can destroy the whole Soviet fleet."

Fredberg has been looking forward to his 460 gun to send the remaining warships of the Black Sea fleet to the bottom of the sea. Now, the Italians didn't stop it. Isn't this a chance for him?

However, Mashal shook his head: "are the shipborne aircraft on the aircraft carrier Hitler ready to go out again? Order them to carry anti-ship bombs and torpedoes, attack again and destroy the remaining warships of the Black Sea fleet! "

The control of sea power lies in air control. The role of aircraft carrier formation lies in this. The era of traditional ship gun bombardment has passed.

Mashal knew this truth. If his fleet had two Zeppelin Earl aircraft carriers, he could attack each other's land airport and Sea fleet.

Fortunately, after several years of operation, the operation efficiency of the German Navy's shipborne aviation is quite high.

In a short time, they completed the operation of recycling the carrier based aircraft. At the same time, the elevator landed in the hangar, refueled and hung bombs. Everything was orderly.

When the last batch of carrier based aircraft were recovered to the deck, the first batch of carrier based aircraft had completed the preparation for dispatch again.

When he returned to the deck, Lieutenant steinkamp looked at the bomb under his belly with satisfaction.

Hs129 is an attack aircraft. Its main weapon is 40mm bofoss machine gun. It has 100 rounds of ammunition and powerful firepower, which is enough to act as a sweeper.

However, it is not appropriate for the navy to sweep the floor. The Navy also needs aircraft that can attack ships.

The Navy's fw190 is almost an all-purpose fighter. It can fight in air, throw torpedoes and dive bombs, but it has no thick armor protection. If you want to attack through the enemy's firepower network, of course, hs129 is more suitable.

Therefore, the Navy's hs129 can also throw bombs. It has special weapons against warships. For example, the pc500rs bomb is now mounted under the belly.

This is a 500 kg rocket propelled bomb. It's absolutely no problem to hit 10000 ton warships. If you hit the enemy's battleships, it's up to 1000 ton.

"Lieutenant, the order has been issued. Please take off immediately. The Soviet warships will soon be within sight distance with us. We don't have much time."

With orders, Lieutenant steinkamp quickly climbed into his plane, started two engines and took off quickly from the angled deck.

At the same time, on the bow deck, fw190 fighters loaded with torpedoes also began to take off. The benefits of angled deck were vividly displayed in this naval battle.

When landing, the bow deck can take off at any time to deal with emergencies. When an attack is needed, the inclined deck and the bow deck take off at the same time, which greatly improves the dispatch efficiency.

With the order, the second wave of attack by the German Naval Formation began again.

At this time, under the leadership of Gorshkov, the Black Sea Fleet was less than 100 nautical miles away from the German fleet.
