Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire
Chapter 709 Unequal Air Combat
Due to the decrease in speed of this Tang-class battleship, it also became the target of the Millennium fleet's concentrated fire.
However, because this battleship has rough skin and thick flesh, and its armor is very thick, and it is made of special alloy steel, the battleship's protective capabilities are very good.
Even though it was hit many times in the next half hour, it was still able to maintain its combat effectiveness.
At this point in the battle, the aircraft carriers of both sides had not yet participated in the battle.
This is mainly because the aircraft carriers of both sides are still evacuating.
Both sides were afraid that the other side would discover the aircraft carrier on their side, so they both made the aircraft carrier retreat a long distance.
It was not until 14:15 in the afternoon that the first batch of takeoff aircraft arrived at the battlefield.
As before, the first ones to arrive on the battlefield were Daxia's fighter jets.
As soon as these combat forces arrive on the battlefield, they will find ways to fight for air supremacy.
At this time, Millician's combat power also arrived on the battlefield.
As a result, the combat power of both sides took place in the sky above the battleships, and the first large-scale air battle between the two countries took place.
Since Daxia's fighter jets arrived at the battlefield a few minutes earlier than Milician's fighter jets, they had a certain air superiority.
At this time, the two fleets were truly at full strength.
The warships below were shooting at each other, shells flying horizontally, and the planes in the sky were also flying and swooping.
And from time to time, fighter planes fall from the sky. There are Daxia fighter planes and Milician fighter planes.
At the same time, the anti-aircraft firepower of the warships below was also outputting at full strength, hoping to help the fighters on their side gain air superiority.
The time soon arrived at around 15:.
After an hour of bloody battle, Daxia's fighter planes gradually gained the advantage.
Daxia's air superiority was not surprising, because whether it was the number of people participating in the air battle, the performance of the aircraft, or the personal abilities of the pilots on both sides, Daxia was actually better than Millikin. Much higher.
After repelling Milician's fighter jets, Daxia's bombers and the second escort fighter group arrived on the battlefield.
Similarly, the second batch of Milician fighter jets also followed and arrived at the battlefield.
When these fighters arrived on the battlefield, the two sides did not compete for air supremacy like the first purchase.
Because they all know that it is already past three o'clock in the afternoon, and there is at most one batch left.
After dark, neither fighter planes could take off. After all, at this time, fighter planes do not yet have the ability to fight at night.
Therefore, they all need to help their fleet win as soon as possible.
The first ones to attack were Daxia's fighter jets. They dived first and wanted to create a gap for the dive bombers behind them, so they needed to attract firepower.
As the fighter jets began to dive, the anti-aircraft firepower on the Milician battleship began to fire at Daxia's fighter jets. After the fighter jets opened a gap, the dive bombers that had been circling began to dive from an altitude of several thousand meters with a scream.
At this time, the American soldiers were horrified to find that the planes they thought were ordinary bombers were like the scythe of death, slashing towards their necks.
The planes dropped their bombs only when they were only a few hundred meters above sea level.
A large aerial bomb of several hundred kilograms, accelerated by gravity, directly penetrated the deck and exploded in the cabin.
Some dive bombers also carried torpedoes.
They directly dropped torpedoes less than a kilometer away from the warships, without giving those warships any time to react.
Soon, many Milician warships were hit and caught fire.
And this is just the first dive.
On the other side of the Daxia fleet, Milician's fighter planes also launched an attack on Daxia.
However, there are some differences between Milician's fighters and Daxia's fighters.
The Americans did not have dive bombers at this time, but they did have multirole fighters.
That is to say, their fighter planes are slightly larger than ordinary fighter planes, and they will carry two aerial bombs under the wings.
Or mount a large aerial bomb directly on the belly of the aircraft.
Such a fighter aircraft can serve as both a fighter and a bomber temporarily.
This kind of aircraft looks very good, but in fact it is not. Because the design of this kind of fighter aircraft is designed at the expense of certain performance of the aircraft.
The first is that this aircraft is relatively large, and as a close-range air combat aircraft, it is also a fighter jet. The bigger you are, the more your steering, vision, and agility will be affected.
Therefore, this means that Milician's fighter jets are often at a disadvantage when engaging in aerial combat with Daxia fighters.
In addition, they need to mount some aerial bombs, which will cause their speed to further decrease.
If this kind of aircraft is allowed to deal with fighters whose performance is not as good as theirs, I can't see what will happen.
But once they face fighters with similar performance or better flexibility than them, this shortcoming will be magnified.
On Daxia's side, on the other hand, the fighter planes have been subdivided in very detail, and each one performs its own duties.
For Daxia, fighter jets are for close combat in the air, so they only need to equip the fighter jets with large-caliber machine guns or cannons.
There is no need to consider whether to mount aerial bombs on fighter planes.
This results in the speed and flexibility of Daxia fighter jets being very high.
As for those Milician fighter planes that wanted to attack Daxia's warships, they really realized that they were not flexible enough and would be really miserable.
Here, as soon as Milician's fighter plane approached Daxia's battleship, the anti-aircraft firepower on the battleship was fully activated.
From 12.7mm anti-aircraft machine guns, to 20mm, 37mm machine guns, and then to 88mm, 127mm large-caliber anti-aircraft guns formed a firepower network, allowing American pilots to experience what it means to be desperate.
Many times, Milician's fighter planes were directly hit by shrapnel from large-caliber anti-aircraft guns as soon as they started to dive, and then plunged directly into the sea dragging black smoke.
Or else they had managed to escape the attack of large-caliber anti-aircraft guns. When they were about to attack, those machine guns or anti-aircraft machine guns seemed to be stuck to them. No matter how hard they pulled, those anti-aircraft machine guns could catch up. them.
They had no chance to attack.
If they could still find a way to break through a battleship, then the joint defense between Daxia battleships and battleships left them with nothing to do.
As mentioned before, Daxia's fleet has been training for joint air defense, so these Millennium aircraft not only have to face the anti-aircraft firepower of each battleship, but also need to be careful about the firepower of other surrounding battleships.
