"No, our speed is too slow!" Haldagen kept complaining. He wanted to rush to Reykjavik at one breath. Who knows that he was blocked by the Americans here.

This was the first direct confrontation between German ground forces and American ground forces.

On the whole, Germany is definitely a favorable side. They have tanks, they are attacking, and they have the advantage of surprise attack.

The Americans are second-line troops and are in a hurry.

However, the objective conditions limited haldagen's input of troops. Their attack surface was not so wide that American infantry could block them. At the same time, in the back, Americans were still arranging mine positions in an attempt to delay the attack of the German army!

For the German army, it was supposed to keep rolling. Once it became a tug of war, it would hurt its self-esteem. You know, this reflects the excellent combat effectiveness of the German Navy, which must not be compared by the army!

At this time, on the sea a hundred kilometers away, lieutenant general mashar's face was very firm.

Some of the recent local maritime conflicts were commanded by mashar in the future. Although his character was somewhat different, he was definitely the strongest in the whole navy in terms of command ability. Even the capital of Chirac yuan favored him and his future was unlimited.

Now, the first batch of landing troops have been blocked. Next, how should our own side fight back?

Well, it's time to use the new tactics of the drill!

"Dispatch the 3rd air assault regiment of the 1st Marine Corps, use frog jump tactics and land directly at habuna feioze!" Lieutenant general mashar finally issued a new order.

After hearing his order, his subordinates were excited. They thought they couldn't see this landing method this time. After all, it was the latest. It hasn't been tested. Who knows, the American defenders in Iceland don't know how to live or die. Let them see the new landing means of the German Navy!

Lieutenant general mashar's orders were soon conveyed to the four Goethe class escort aircraft carriers in the formation.

With Germany's integration of the entire European industry, productivity has taken a leap. Escort aircraft carriers are one after another. So far, the German Navy has more than 50 such aircraft carriers.

They can also be modified. These four escort aircraft carriers are very different from the previous ones.

It is no longer used to take off and land fixed wing aircraft, the catapult is removed, and there is no obstruction rope behind it. Its equipment has become an aircraft and helicopter that can take off and land without taxiing!

After Chirac's prompt, Dr. Anton Flett suddenly realized that the problems that had plagued him for many years were easily solved. From then on, there were no handling defects, and the hummingbird helicopter also began to develop in great strides.

In almost a month, two helicopters have been finalized, hummingbird 2 and Hummingbird 3.

Hummingbird 2 is a general-purpose helicopter of the Navy. This helicopter uses the same 2000 HP star air-cooled engine as fw190, with an empty weight of 5 tons and a maximum takeoff weight of 7.5 tons.

It is a generalist of the Navy. It can perform a series of tasks such as maritime investigation, ship gun calibration, throwing deep bombs, anti submarine and so on. At the same time, it can also transport personnel.

It has a large member cabin in the rear, which can carry 15 passengers. The overall level is similar to the mi-4 helicopter of the later Soviet Union.

As for Hummingbird 3, it was developed for the army.

During the war, everything could be simplified. After finalizing the design, the German Navy immediately placed an advance order for 200 helicopters for production in the helicopter factories transformed in France and Britain.

Because the output of engines is insufficient, some of the engines produced in Britain use British engines with similar power, but they are water-cooled.

This is only an advance order. At least thousands of orders will be added later.

When the helicopter entered the German Navy, it was immediately welcomed by the captains. In the future, there is no need to recover the carrier aircraft at sea and lift it back with a crane. In, this aircraft can land directly on its own deck!

At the same time, at the suggestion of Shrek, the Marine Corps also received hundreds of helicopters and created an air assault regiment of the Marine Corps.

In the process of landing, the German Navy can not only have conventional beach landing, hovercraft landing, but also have helicopter three-dimensional landing!

While transforming the regiment, several Goethe class aircraft carriers were transformed into amphibious attack ships simultaneously, mainly by carrying helicopters, with Marine Corps member compartments on them.

It was not intended to be used this time. The first batch of landing troops rushed to Reykjavik, and the later troops could land successively from the port of kevlavik. The battle was over.

Who would have thought that they were blocked by the Americans and delayed their action? Let the Americans taste their new ways!

The 10000 ton Goethe class is floating on the sea. At this time, on the deck, the front and rear ten helicopters are preparing for takeoff.

The deck is not large enough, so it is impossible to release all 20 helicopters at one time. After the first batch flies to heaven, the second batch will rise up from the hangar by elevator, and then follow the release.

"Come on, come on, board now!" Commander Lucas shouted loudly. Wearing the same marine uniform as others and carrying the same 6.8mm rifle, he ran to the helicopter.

At this time, the helicopter has begun to start, and the whole deck has issued a roar. With the rotation of the propeller, a stream of air is flying on the deck.

They are no longer surprised at this situation. They have also conducted several exercises on the route to. Take the exercise as an actual battle and the actual battle as an exercise.

Lucas jumped into the helicopter and sat on a Mazar like bench. Beside him was a telegraph soldier with a small radio on his back.

Phillips, the big gunner, came up last. He didn't sit inside at all, but sat on the cabin door at once.

The doors on both sides are open and unobstructed. When he sits like this, he can stretch his legs. At the same time, he hangs the armed belt around his waist on the safety belt, so he doesn't have to worry about falling down halfway.

"Take off, take off!"

With the command, the roar of the engine became louder, and the propeller on the top made a whine. In the huge air flow, the helicopter rose from the ground and flew directly from the deck!

(the real helicopter technology was developed after World War II. It was quite mature in the 1950s. The ancestor of the helicopter, that is, from Germany, now has the passage of the protagonist. It was developed in advance. It is entirely in the field of technology.)
