"Attention, the target is the German Navy. It's ten nautical miles behind my port side. Come on, take off the torpedo plane immediately!"

As the other side kept approaching, finally, the outline of the other side could be clearly seen. This alarm was not found by the lookout post, but general labard. When the sea breeze dispersed the thick smoke enveloping the other side's warships, he immediately recognized the other side's warships, which were German class!

Although I don't know which one it is, the three triple mounted 283mm naval guns above can't be wrong. It's really a terrible thing. The German warship is actually close to its own ten nautical miles!

General labard was extremely nervous. At the same time, he issued this order.

Take off the torpedo!

Originally, the reconnaissance plane on the deck could take off immediately, but now there is no need. Our own reconnaissance plane is quite backward. It's enough to undertake a reconnaissance task. We simply have no ability to attack the other party. Don't even think about it. It's definitely suicidal!

At this time, only torpedoes can pose a threat to each other, and they must race against time!

Although the Bayan has eight 155 mm naval guns, they are useless at all. This kind of naval gun is just bullying an ordinary frigate. The German German class warship has stepped into the ranks of battleships. Even if it hits, the 155 mm naval gun has no lethality.

We have to take off the fighter. Race against the clock!

The engine of the reconnaissance plane stopped rotating, and then the pilot was frightened to find that the deck under his plane had risen, and he was still up there!

"Damn it! Quickly remove the brake baffle. " He shouted.

Here is the take-off position of his reconnaissance plane and the lift position of the hangar below!

At this time, in the central hangar, with the sharp alarm, the maintenance personnel in the hangar were busy immediately.

Through the elevator, get the fighter up!

At the same time, a mechanic below opened the hydraulic cylinder of the support rod at the top. With the action of the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic cylinder, the deck at the top began to turn slowly towards both sides to make enough space for the elevator.

At sea, there is a lot of salt, which will corrode the fighters. Even if the current fighters are still relatively old and not delicate, they will strike because of salt. Therefore, at ordinary times, the fighters are placed in the aircraft carrier hangar and will be promoted when necessary.

Moreover, the maintenance of the aircraft is also completed in the hangar.

The basic structure of the aircraft carrier, the lower layer is the hangar and the upper layer is the deck. If you want to transport the aircraft, you must have an elevator.

In this era, all aircraft carrier lifts are arranged on the center line of the flight deck, which is called "inboard lift". This is also the most conventional way of thinking. After all, it rises from the interior of the cabin, of course from the center.

This kind of elevator is not affected by wind and waves; However, it not only affects the strength of the flight deck, but also affects the take-off and landing of aircraft, resulting in the slow progress of flight operations on the deck.

Historically, the United States first adopted the "side lift" on the completed Essex in 1942, which translated the lift to one side, which eliminated the above shortcomings. However, it is also vulnerable to wind and waves.

But now, it has been preempted by Germany. The German Zeppelin Earl class aircraft carrier uses a side lift.

British people who are good at thinking will soon find the benefits of this elevator. However, the British have no time, including the inclined flight deck. Before the British can figure it out, the British will not have it.

In short, the deck efficiency is very slow now, and there are accidents at the same time.

The lower hydraulic rod has pushed up the top deck, but there is another plane on the deck! As long as you turn up more than ten degrees, the reconnaissance plane will have to turn over!

The pilot above was stunned. He's still up there! If you turn it over, he'll be miserable.

Shouting finally woke up the people below and quickly stopped the action of the hydraulic rod. The people above hurriedly said that the two winged reconnaissance plane had been removed.

At this time, the following people are still busy. They push a two winged levaser pl2 shipborne torpedo machine onto the bottom plate of the elevator. They push a car with a torpedo on the car. At this time, they have not completed the task of mounting the torpedo.

On the French aircraft carrier, there was a panic. France is a romantic country. If you say it more carefully, it is dissolute and loose, women dissolute and men dissolute.

The usual training is a mess. Anyway, the country doesn't want to fight. Now, once the war really comes, they immediately panic.

In the process of making mistakes, German warships are catching up quickly!

The Bayan was at full power and emitting black smoke, but it was not trying to escape, but to provide speed for the take-off of carrier based aircraft.

The take-off of carrier based aircraft needs to reach a certain speed. In this way, before take-off, if the aircraft has an initial speed relative to the air, it can greatly reduce the take-off pressure of carrier based aircraft.

Therefore, almost all aircraft carriers need to drive full horsepower to take off and land carrier based aircraft against the wind before taking off, even in the current era of propeller aircraft.

But now, the Bayan is moving too slowly.

Even if it wants to escape, it can't escape! At this time, it has not accelerated to the maximum speed of 20 knots, while the German warship has sprint to 28 knots!

Relying on the high speed, the German quickly chased up and got closer and closer to the aircraft carrier!

General labard on the bridge, holding a telescope, looked at the three German triple guns, turned slowly and aimed at the aircraft carrier here.

"Come on, right full rudder!" He continued.

Since he can't get rid of it, he can only do maneuvers. After years of sea experience, labard knows that the other party wants to sail to his own port position and give full play to all the firepower of the other party's naval guns.

In this case, if you have a full right rudder, you can make all the shooting data calculated by the Germans invalid! Delay the other party's attack and prepare for the take-off of its own carrier aircraft.

It was so urgent that he bypassed captain Colonel gerary and gave orders to the warship.

Unfortunately, he was not born as an aircraft carrier commander after all.

With his command, the helmsman quickly operated the steering gear and killed the rudder. Then, the huge ship tilted in the acceleration.

"No!" On the deck, the Scout pilot shouted in despair.
