"This is not a Japanese style! I think it should be a good thing to do in the small German fleet in Australia!" Nimitz stared at the report in his hand and complained to General Spruance around him: "Destroy the transport The technique of the line is very similar to the pack of wolves on the Atlantic Ocean, and I bet it must be done by the men of Dunnitz! "

Spruance had read the report and sighed helplessly, saying: "The people of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that German diplomats denied that their submarine had attacked US transport ships in the Pacific Ocean and asked us to take Speak out if you have evidence. "

"Evidence? I have sunk 150,000 tons of transport and fishing vessels in these ten days! What more evidence? The merchant ships we lost in these ten days are the tonnage of all supply ships lost since the war with Japan. Sum! If the Japanese have this ability, why did n’t they bring it out before? ”Rao is a better-serving Nimitz. After seeing the purely official standard rhetoric of the German diplomat, he could n’t help but scold the mother. A career that anyone can do, at least if he is a soldier, if someone talks nonsense in his face, he can greet the past with a fist, but a diplomat cannot.

General Spruance pointed to the chart and said to Nimitz: "Let ’s study and study how to deal with the Japanese soldiers on Kauai. According to the report of the reconnaissance patrol speedboat, the other party is replenishing the island by submarine. It ’s a bit too much for us to come to the other side ’s plan to sleepy. ”

"The Japanese joint fleet has now returned to the homeland for rest, and the source of this information is still very reliable, so I decided to let the fleet go south and attack the Japanese maritime supply line near Darwin's port!" Nimitz stopped the meaningless abuse. To General Spruance said: "Anyway, the Japanese fleet cannot fly back to the waters near Oahu. We have a huge time difference to use!"

"You mean, let the entire fleet go south?" Spruance asked with a frown, worried that his fleet would be blocked by the Japanese in Southeast Asia, where there are many islands, and was forced to fight a winning battle. . If the Japanese Navy succeeds, then the US Pacific Fleet will be wiped out again. Even if the United States has the world's most powerful industrial productivity, it cannot help being consumed on such a large scale.

Moreover, the US fleet went south, almost one month later than the Japanese fleet left. It seems that the Japanese fleet has recovered its vitality and can continue to fight, and if the US fleet rushes to Darwin Harbor for a long distance, the tired will become the US fleet. The situation will once again be detrimental to the US Navy. So Spruance spoke again: "General, our fleet has never rested. In this case ... Isn't the hasty offense not very secure?"

Nimitz nodded, and then expressed his thoughts: "Hawaiian's military port has been almost dismantled by us. Most of the remaining fuel was also consumed. We now lead the fleet to the south to attack once, taking some advantage. Then retreat and throw the Hawaiian Islands to the Japanese! "

The core of this plan is to exchange land for elite troops, rely on the advantages of strategic space to wipe out the opposing forces as much as possible, consume Japan's war potential, and make a gamble to win the maritime initiative faster.

"I took the Hornet and Assault Carrier to the south, you and the York City carrier and the fleet stayed at Pearl Harbor ... Isn't that more secure?" Spruance's suggestion is better than Nimitz's It's better, after all, Pearl Harbor's loss has a great impact on the United States, and it is definitely not an easy task for the United States to lack Pearl Harbor in the future counterattack.

"Are you sure, before that guy from Yamamoto killed him, rush back?" Nimitz looked at his old friend, the leader of the US aircraft carrier fleet, General Spruance, if Barton was the best The general of the United States Army, then Spruance may be the most powerful warrior in the United States Navy.

"The Germans set a good example for us when dealing with the Royal Navy of the British Empire. They used facts to prove that relying on aircraft carriers alone can gain an advantage in naval warfare!" Spruance is rare as a US Navy The commander of the aircraft carrier fleet has specifically studied the rise of the German Navy. He can be said to be the American who knows the history of the German Navy best in recent years.

When he saw that the German navy skillfully used radar and aircraft carriers to form a technological advantage, circled with the Royal Navy in the narrow North Sea, and achieved a decisive victory, he seemed to see a ray of dawn, shining on the U.S. Navy fleet The dawn of the future development direction, just hit his mind.

Germany's radar advantage, now the US Navy has the Japanese Navy! The US aircraft carrier can definitely rely on the carrier fleet and the Japanese battleships in the wider Pacific Ocean! Spruance decided not to let Lütjens be special, and he was determined to become the world's leading aircraft carrier commander.

"I think it can be! General. The German navy had previous examples of such battle victories. I have carefully studied the methods they used in combat. They simply attacked during the day and retreated at night. As long as the risk of aircraft carrier night warfare is strictly avoided, it can be achieved. Victory in the naval battle! "Spruance finally said firmly to Nimitz.

"The aircraft carrier ... is really a useful weapon. But why? Isn't the aircraft carrier really capable of night battles?" Nimitz looked up regretfully and asked General Spruance around him.

"Is it true that aircraft carriers can't fight at night?" At the other end of the world, it can be said that Lütjens, the world's first aircraft carrier commander, is asking the same question, and a German naval technical expert beside him is Anxiously looked at the flight deck outside the bridge.

How to make the aircraft take off from the aircraft carrier is a very worthy question. If this short board can be connected to allow the aircraft carrier to fight at night, then this weapon is a well-deserved king of naval warfare, and no ship can shake it. It's overlord. On that day, the **** battleship will be driven out of the historical stage and become a souvenir docked in the port!

Countless methods have been developed, such as erecting tall poles around the aircraft carrier deck, and then installing lighting equipment on the top of the poles to illuminate the entire aircraft carrier deck to provide a safe takeoff and landing environment. The bright lights are definitely found by opponents and can be used as targets. It is not a good idea to hurt yourself before hurting the enemy.

But another good way was figured out by the head of state, Akado, or that Akado borrowed the technological crystallization of his previous US aircraft carrier, and easily thought of a simple way to take off and land safely at night. As long as a set of lights with different colors is installed somewhere at the end of the aircraft carrier's deck, the aircraft can safely land on the dark deck.

The principle is actually to rely on blocking light to allow pilots to obtain reference information, but many times people have no revelation to embarrass such a simple problem for more than ten years. The German new aircraft carrier Prussia, installed this kind of light group, is accepting the shipboard aircraft landing experiment at night.

According to the time when this aircraft carrier was put into service with night take-off and landing equipment, in fact, the Germans have already tested the difficulty of taking off and landing night fighters, but this time the experimental fighters are somewhat different. It can be said that it is the German Navy and even the entire Germany. New weapons that are strictly confidential in the Air Force.

The reason why the German Navy has not started the night battle of the aircraft carrier is that although taking off and landing aircraft at night is a technical problem, what is more headache is how to allow the carrier aircraft on the aircraft carrier to find them on the dark sea. They need to attack The goal.

Now, this technology has been solved by German technicians, and they have finally made unremitting efforts to make the advanced equipment such as radar to a size that can be stuffed into the aircraft. After such a long period of evolution, the volume of the German radar can be tucked into a twin-engine aircraft, giving the aircraft the ability to find targets at night.

As a result, only this maritime experiment, which has attracted the attention of the navy and air force, has this conversation between Lütjens and the technicians around him. As long as this experiment is successful, the German Navy has an aircraft that can perform sea strike missions at night, and the aircraft carrier fleet can really carry out night attack operations at sea!

In order to take off and land on the aircraft carrier, Germany has redesigned a twin-engine aircraft. This aircraft is much smaller than the normal twin-engine bomber, and the wings can be folded. The flight speed of this aircraft is very fast. When used as an early warning aircraft and reconnaissance aircraft, it is important to pursue that it can carry torpedoes and bombs to attack enemy warships.

In order to cooperate with this new type of aircraft with radar, the Prussian aircraft carrier even cut 10 fw-190 naval fighters and moved out of space to equip 7 of this new owl multi-purpose aircraft. At the same time, this aircraft will produce two models in the future, including the Air Force night interceptor Owl a type, and the Navy night multi-purpose aircraft Owl b type.

"Nighthawk 1, the radar shows that you are approaching the aircraft carrier, you are approaching the position of the aircraft carrier! Confirm the angle of the light, confirm the angle of the light!" The air controller on the side is confirming the position of the aircraft over and over again with the intercom, which is the first in human history. A special fighter for taking off and landing at night on an aircraft carrier.

"I'm Nighthawk 1! I'm Nighthawk 1!" The pilot's voice came clearly: "I see the landing light! I'm adjusting the angle! I'm adjusting the angle!"

Soon, a dark shadow rushed from the sky to the aircraft carrier's runway, and the German navy night fighter landing experiment was a complete success!
