There is no need to dispute about the catapult on the aircraft carrier in future generations. If you want to take off dozens of tons of jets from the deck, the catapult is a necessary choice. Jumping off the deck is just a shortcut.
In later generations, the principle of catapults was simple, but it was closely related to the country's industrial level. For a long time, only the United States had catapult technology, and other countries could not do it at all.
In World War II, catapults actually began to be widely used.
All kinds of battleships and cruisers carry carrier based aircraft. In this era without helicopters, carrier based aircraft are almost necessary to undertake the responsibilities of long-distance maritime investigation, artillery calibration and even bomb dropping.
These warships simply do not provide aircraft take-off and landing positions. Therefore, these aircraft take off by ejection, land directly on the water surface by buoy, and then recover.
After all, the aircraft of this era are light, only a few tons, and the take-off speed is very low. With a speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour, they can fly. Therefore, the energy of the catapult is not much.
There are many ways, such as rocket power, hydraulic power, and even elastic steel cable. Now, the way of hydraulic ejection is very common on German warships.
At the same time, German aircraft carriers are also equipped with this kind of hydraulic catapult.
When it comes to the use of catapults on aircraft carriers in World War II, there are various arguments. Some say that catapults are useful for aircraft carriers. Look at the United States, catapults are installed in the hangar to facilitate takeoff.
Others say that catapults are useful for birds. Although they are installed by Americans, they have hardly been used. In the later stage, they are even removed. That thing is a burden.
After all, the aircraft of this era are all propeller. With a runway of more than 100 meters, they can fly. Why do you need catapults? When the hook was hooked, the pilot took off by himself.
That makes sense, but the German aircraft carrier is still equipped with catapults. There are two catapults on the take-off deck at the bow.
In general, catapults are useless and even cumbersome, but in special cases, catapults are still necessary.
For example, now, in bad sea conditions, the aircraft carrier deck is also shaking left and right. Although the weather conditions have improved, it is not a good opportunity to release the aircraft.
In this case, it is completely different with and without catapults.
After all, the hydraulic catapult has a track, that is, the aircraft can only follow the track of the catapult without yaw. When taking off, it is affected by the crosswind and is blown to one side, which is also occasionally encountered.
Now, the weather is bad, and the catapult is the key to ensure the flight of the aircraft!
At the same time, this is also for future consideration. For Germany, among the propeller aircraft, fw190 has reached the limit, and how to improve it is limited. The future sky belongs to jet aircraft.
Bavarian aircraft company has begun to develop jet aircraft, and has entered the final test flight stage. Maybe three or five months, maybe a year or two, it will certainly be finalized.
At that time, the German Navy's shipborne aircraft will also gradually transition to jet aircraft. In the current test flight stage, jet aircraft will show their delicacy, and the runway needs to be very long. Therefore, catapults must be provided before they can take off from the aircraft carrier, which can also be regarded as the German Navy's plan in advance.
"Wow!" When a huge wave hit, it was almost one meter high before it could hit the deck. After receiving the order to attack, the German naval airmen continued to carry forward their fearless spirit.
Last night, they had been out once. The night battle was very strenuous. Therefore, after they came back, they went to bed. Now, after receiving the order to attack, they are still confident.
As the commander of the bomber brigade, ASIM's plane was seriously damaged when it landed last night, but he replaced an unfit pilot and continued to fly the plane.
Stuka's unique seagull wing looked very different on the deck. Sitting in his cockpit, ASIM was also very excited.
He once served on the aircraft carrier count Zeppelin and had rich experience in deck take-off and landing. Later, after the completion of the aircraft carrier, he became the captain of Stuka. In many trainings, he and Rick on the aircraft carrier count Zeppelin formed good friends.
Now, the aircraft carrier count Zeppelin is more than 500 nautical miles away from them. When they arrive, the battle must have ended here. After the battle, go and boast with Rick!
"Take off!" In the radio in his ears, there was a sound. With the sound, ASIM felt a strong sense of pushing his back on his back.
The feeling of ejection taking off is different from that of taking off. In terms of image, it's like being severely kicked.
Therefore, many people don't like the feeling of ejection and take-off, which is also for a reason.
A huge wave hit and the huge warship shook to one side. Without the traction of the catapult, Stuka had slipped to one side. Now, it was still on its take-off line, sliding and running quickly.
Soon, the landing gear left the deck and the catapult. ASIM operated the plane and accelerated its ascent.
Although the wind is not as strong as it was an hour ago, the feedback from the joystick makes ASIM feel that his plane is like a leaf shaking in the wind.
In this weather, the British carrier aircraft may not dare to take off, but their own side has taken off without hesitation. Although the German naval aviation was born for a short time, its development is the fastest. It is the most powerful in the world!
Behind ASIM, Stukas, braving the bad weather, took off from the aircraft carrier forcibly. Their goal is the British fleet!
After the Stuka brigade took off, it was fw190. All these planes were loaded with torpedoes. Their ranking behind did not mean that they were the second wave, but because they flew faster.
After taking off, fw190 fighters soon overtook Stuka and rushed towards the British fleet dozens of nautical miles away. How can they be less in the fierce sea war.
At this distance, they climbed up after taking off. With good eyesight, they could already see the black smoke rising on the sea. The shelling of both sides was going on rapidly. The naval battle was coming to the most intense moment.
