Compared with the waterline armor belt, the armor on the bridge is not thick. When the huge armor piercing bullet hits the building in front of the bridge, the scene is very spectacular.
If you have a high-speed camera to replay the scene, you can see it more clearly.
When the shell comes into contact with the ship's armor, the front deforms rapidly.
From the outside, the front end of the armor piercing projectile is quite smooth and beautiful. In fact, it is only the hood on the first layer. The structure is fragile, mainly to improve the aerodynamic shape and reduce the kinetic energy consumption in the air.
After contact, this layer was quickly destroyed and the second layer was exposed. This is the main force of armor piercing projectile, which is used to penetrate the carburized steel plate on the surface.
The 380 mm armor piercing projectile is already quite powerful. At a distance of 27 kilometers, the penetration depth reaches 300 mm. For example, now, the 152 mm armor, like an impacted aluminum plate, deforms instantly and is then torn. The armor piercing bullet successfully drilled in.
"Boom!" There was a loud explosion.
Behind the front cap is the main shell, the front section is the delay fuse, and the back is the charge.
The charge of armor piercing projectile is certainly not as much as that of high explosive projectile, but the charge of 380mm projectile is also quite abnormal.
The whole shell weighs 800 kg, and the charge is hundreds of kilograms.
With its explosion, you can see that the building just hit collapsed in an instant, and countless fragments flew.
At the same time, a huge air wave also lifted up. This air wave can directly tear down the glass on the bridge, not to mention the terrible fragments.
"Pa!" Almost instantaneously, a fragment of dozens of kilograms flew to the bridge, broke the glass of the bridge, and directly cut off the upper half of the front helmsman's body.
The lower half of the helmsman's body is still standing. It seems that he still wants to sail, while the upper half of his body is gone!
This is just the beginning.
Admiral tovi squatted down at the moment of the explosion. He hoped that the armor under the bridge could block these terrible fragments.
Screams kept ringing.
A small shrapnel, only the size of a bullet, passed through the dozens of mm thick armor of the command tower, drilled in, stuck in an officer's stomach, flew out of the other end of his stomach and hit another person's head.
Under the huge impact, the officer's body fell back, a big hole appeared in his stomach, and his intestines splashed out.
As for the other man, he fell down without a hum, and his white brain splashed on the side wall behind him.
Almost all those who could survive became disabled. After the explosion, 18 people died on the bridge, including 11 senior officers, 13 injured and all seriously injured.
Only Tovey survived again. He curled up in a corner and escaped the terrible explosion debris and the impact of the air flow. When he stood up, there were no survivors on the bridge.
The steering gear has been blown up. Senior officers have been killed in large numbers. The Queen Elizabeth has suffered heavy losses.
But this is not over.
Shells fell like rain.
In the next three minutes, the Bismarck fired 36 406 mm shells and the shanhorst fired 48 380 mm shells.
Among them, 12 shells hit the Queen Elizabeth.
This is a complete battle between battleships! The German Navy, again with its proud achievements, demonstrated the quality of its first-class Navy.
In the back, the hit rate is higher, because the battleship Queen Elizabeth, which has been dry and abandoned its bridge, has lost its ability to turn and is a better target.
The sixth 406mm shell hit the engine room behind it, greatly reducing the speed of the warship. In this way, the Queen Elizabeth simply became a live target, and the hit rate in the later stage was even higher.
Another reason is that the wind and waves are getting smaller and smaller.
Queen Elizabeth had a chance to breathe temporarily. After it was shot, other battleships gave up the German, the fleet turned and began to attack the German formation.
At the same time, on the side of the Queen Elizabeth, the zeal quickly moved up and stood in the middle of the German fleet and the Queen Elizabeth, and then black smoke rose.
On the battlefield, the means to interfere with each other is to release smoke, which is a tactic that existed in ancient times!
In this way, the German fleet lost its target position, and the whole Queen Elizabeth hid in the smoke.
This warship is lucky. It has been shot many times and is still strong. More importantly, its turret has not suffered a devastating blow and has not attracted the death explosion of ammunition, which is commendable.
At this time, both sides had rushed 14 nautical miles away and approached 8 nautical miles away.
In order to avoid the loss of shells, and because other British main battleships came up, the German fleet had to change its target. The next one was the Barham of the same model as the Queen Elizabeth.
The British Navy still has an advantage in terms of the total tonnage of the fleet and the number of battleships.
After the Queen Elizabeth was wounded, they also had three 30000 ton battleships, namely, the Barham, the Nelson and the monarchy, while on the German side, there were only two main ships.
Other warships are soy sauce makers. After the victory is determined, they catch up to clean the battlefield.
However, since several warships were destroyed by the German, the British fleet now has more capital ships and fewer escort ships, with the exception of the German fleet.
The British navy will not shrink back. In order to maintain maritime hegemony, they have always taken the initiative. This encounter has become the main duel.
In fact, there are several main ships of the German fleet, but the main ships of the British fleet are here. Although they can still be transferred from the colonies, overseas interests can not be guaranteed.
This naval battle will determine the fate of the British Navy!
At this time, they did not know that the German Navy still had an aircraft carrier outside the combat area, anxiously waiting for the weather to improve.
The storm in the Atlantic Ocean has just become smaller. On the aircraft carrier Hitler, Captain tiller asked the commander of the shipborne aircraft wing, "under the current meteorological conditions, can we take off?"
"With catapults, we can take off, but once the weather is bad, we will not be able to land."
"That's worth it. Attack with all your strength!" Tiller shook his fist: "this war will completely eliminate the main force of the British Navy!"
