Lucky god didn't take care of the German again.
The 283 mm shells flew. When they fired, the hull shook slightly, so the muzzle deviated slightly. In this way, all the shells flew.
The Southampton was unharmed.
The fourth volley flew again. After two rounds of firing on the German, the British warship was also ready.
The shell came towards the German like a rainstorm.
This time, because of the close distance, not only the main gun, but also the other side's auxiliary gun opened fire. The shells were too dense!
"Right rudder," cried Colonel stanger, who was not calm this time and had to avoid it.
"Boom!" A shell fell into the sea, then exploded, rolled up waves several meters high, rushed to the deck, and poured a deep chill on several exposed people operating anti-aircraft guns.
"Boom!" Suddenly, a shell hit it accurately.
Fortunately, it was a 152 mm sub gun shell that just hit the strongest sideboard armor belt of the German. In the huge impact, the whole ship felt a shaking. Fortunately, it was not broken down!
The engine on the German made a rumbling sound. The damaged diesel engine has not been started. Its speed is not high enough. Now, it seems that it may not be able to escape the British attack.
On the Queen Elizabeth, which had been torpedoed by two torpedoes, Admiral Tovey looked at the German in the distance. His eyes were very cold: "keep shooting and kill it!"
The other side can't run away. Our side will completely destroy the other side with intensive firepower.
"Report, zeal found a target on the sea 15 nautical miles away from our port side." Just then, a voice came from the radio and quickly reported it to Admiral Tovey.
Port, fifteen nautical miles? Admiral Tovey stood up and raised his telescope. From the porthole of the bridge, he could see the sea on the port side.
Unfortunately, there are waves everywhere. He can't see anything. He can only roughly see some bright spots on the sea. It looks like a fleet.
Then he frowned. He had seen the black smoke coming out of the bright spots opposite. It was the other party's naval gun firing.
Germans, are they all so abnormal? At this distance, they fired?
Yes, Germany has opened fire!
The Deutschland opened fire at a distance of 10 nautical miles. It was a very strong first hit, and the new formation opened fire at a distance of 15 nautical miles!
The flagship of the formation is the pride of the German Navy, the battleship Bismarck!
Originally, the core of the formation was the aircraft carrier Adolf Hitler, but now, accompanied by two or three escort warships, the aircraft carrier is about 20 nautical miles behind the formation.
The bad weather conditions made it impossible for the aircraft carrier Hitler to fly the carrier based aircraft at all. The recovery fighter last night had been soul stirring. The deck was shaking violently. The officers and soldiers on the aircraft carrier had nothing to do but wait for the weather to improve.
In this era, carrier based aircraft has shown strong combat effectiveness. Under its dive and bombing, any warship is like paper paste. The duel between naval guns has been put in the second place.
After these days of fighting, the German Navy has concluded that aircraft carriers will eventually replace battleships.
But in the Atlantic, battleships still have their value.
For example, now the carrier based aircraft on the aircraft carrier can not be released, so we can only rely on battleships!
When the carrier based aircraft cannot be released, the aircraft carrier will lose its function. It is absolutely inappropriate to press it up like this. It simply acts as the target of the other party. Therefore, the aircraft carrier falls behind. Under the current situation, it is destined to be a tragic sea war, just like the battle of Jutland!
After receiving the news of the attack on their German ship, they accelerated and tried to join the German ship, and now they finally arrived.
There are still 15 nautical miles away. The 406 mm naval guns on Bismarck are ready. Now they are almost facing each other. Therefore, only the six naval guns on the two turrets in front have firing angles.
Go back five minutes.
At the forefront of the formation, the battleship shankhost, and the alternate students of lieutenant Gus on the foremast observation platform focused on observation.
This battleship is the successor of the German class.
After Germany signed the Anglo German naval agreement with Britain, the restrictions on the German Navy imposed by the Versailles peace treaty were lifted in law, and Germany was allowed to build warships with a displacement of 35000 tons.
The 10000 ton German class can no longer meet the needs of the German Navy. In the month when the agreement was signed, Germany began to build the newly designed shanhorst class.
At the beginning, it was only a German enlarged version, with a displacement of only 19000 tons and a main gun caliber of 305 mm.
But then, the design scheme was modified, the displacement was increased to 35000 tons, the double mounted 380mm main gun was installed, the maximum armor thickness was 360mm, and the steam turbine was installed to increase the speed to 31 knots.
Historically, due to the development progress, three triple 283mm caliber main guns were finally adopted. We plan to wait until the 380mm gun is successfully developed and install a new gun.
Now, the German naval gun is quite mature. Therefore, this battleship does not use 283mm naval gun, but directly uses 380mm naval gun. However, the number of naval guns has been reduced. Originally, it was a triple 283, but after it was replaced with 380, it has become a dual installation, and the turret seat ring is exactly the same.
There are also many doubts about the division of this warship.
The displacement of this warship is equivalent to that of the British battleship, the 32 section high-speed is equivalent to that of the Battlecruiser, the armor thickness is stronger than that of the Battlecruiser, and the firepower is equivalent to that of the Battlecruiser.
Very similar to the German, the result is that the British battleship can not catch up with the cruiser, but the Battlecruiser will suffer losses in the competition with it. It is very suitable for a broken battle in the Atlantic Ocean.
Now, the ocean is choppy. In order to see farther, the lookouts are standing high. The shaking is even worse. Ordinary people are shaken and vomited after going up for a few minutes.
Lieutenant Gus has been insisting. Before joining the Navy, Lieutenant Gus was already a crew member. He has long been used to this turbulence.
Suddenly, he found a wisp of smoke in his eyepiece. He turned the dial with a flash of residual light. The azimuth was about 15 degrees on the starboard side. He found the target!
So he immediately grabbed the phone and reported to the bridge, so all the telescopes on the whole "shanhorst" turned to starboard.
Soon, the target confirmed that "shanhorst" reported "unidentified target found at 15 degrees starboard" to the flagship Bismarck with light signal.
On the Bismarck, general rutjens immediately issued a battle order: "accelerate the whole fleet and prepare for engagement!"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
