Soon, after receiving the order, a squadron of fighter jets took off from the fifth aircraft carrier number 05.

The organizational structures of HNA and Land Airlines are similar, and they belong to the type of large organization. At the beginning, they mainly considered to be able to scare the enemy.

Or it is to increase the color of our own publicity, for example, we only sent one squadron to sink the enemy's fighter jets.

In fact, the number of fighter jets in a squadron is no less than that in a division. The most basic combat unit is a group. A normal group has three fighter jets and an enhanced version has four fighter jets. They use a dual-machine formation, but this type of organization is very small, and they are generally in China. For HNA, it is a three-machine team.

Then up there is a team, with five teams, that is, fifteen fighter jets, plus one team leader, a total of sixteen fighter jets.

Upwards are squadrons, which are also composed of five squadrons, eighty fighter jets, plus two of the chief and deputy squadron leaders, which means that the normal organization of one squadron is 82 fighter jets.

What about the air force organization in other countries? Most of the squadrons only have about fifteen fighter jets, and one squadron, that is, forty to sixty fighter jets, and there are not as many fighter jets as a squadron in the Chinese Empire.

Because the Midway-class aircraft carrier can accommodate more aircraft, and the J-1 fighter has superior performance and weapons and equipment that can kill everything in seconds, we can often see torpedo bombers, fighters, reconnaissance aircraft, and even dive bombers on aircraft carriers in other countries.

But if you don’t look carefully on the aircraft carriers of the Chinese Empire, you can only see all kinds of fighter jets, that’s right. It’s true, all kinds of fighter jets.

Before the Chinese Sword was put into service, the carrier-based aircraft on the aircraft carrier had some fearless dive bombers, but now, they were all eliminated. In front of J-Yi, any fighter jet was a cloud.

All the aircraft carriers exchanged by Su Dao are modified and the final versions are modified, which means that an aircraft carrier can carry 137 fighter jets. Later, Su Dao felt that it was still a little too little, so he ordered the modification to continue, without too much modification, just increase the capacity of the fighter jet.

The various researches began to be studied and modified, and finally, the active aircraft carrier was modified to be able to carry 155 fighter jets and nearly two squadrons of fighter jets.

The reconnaissance aircraft on the aircraft carrier is also responsible for fighter jets. Moreover, under the current situation, even if there is no reconnaissance aircraft, the opponent will not gain any advantage. Radar has long replaced the role of reconnaissance aircraft.

Fighters are all the same fighter jets. But carrier-based aircraft are different from Army Airlines. Because of runway assistance, Land Airlines does not have any strict requirements for takeoff, but HNA cannot do it.

First, the volume must be small. Second, the weight must be heavier than the land aircraft fighter. Third, the thrust-weight ratio must be larger, otherwise it will not be able to fly. Therefore, the J-1, which appeared on the aircraft carrier at this time, is the real name of the J-1 C type fighter.

The difference between the J-1 and J-1 B is that it can carry the Chinese sword. Overall, the difference is not much, but the weapon system is different, while HNA has earth-shaking changes, so it is named J-1 C.

‘Buzz…’

Eighty-two fighter jets were flying in the air. Because they were not in a hurry, they did not drive the fastest speed, but were flying at a cruise speed of more than 400 kilometers, and the flight altitude was 6,000 meters.

Yao Qin, who served in the army for three years, graduated from Jinxi Air Force Academy before that, where she studied systematically for three years and could fly any type of aircraft.

After graduation, he was assigned to HNA. In the first year, he stayed on land for training. His mission was the same as HNA pilots, who were responsible for patrolling the sea surface safety. The only difference was that the airport was different. HNA took off on an aircraft carrier, while they were on land.

The following year, with the increase in the number of aircraft carriers and sufficient training preparations, Yao Qin's squadron was directly transferred to the No. 05 aircraft carrier of the Fifth Aircraft Carrier Battle Group for service.

It may be a bit awkward to say that an aircraft carrier can only carry 155 fighter jets, and one squadron has 82 fighter jets. The remaining fighter jets cannot form a squadron, and the organization is incomplete. This is the most embarrassing thing.

But there is no need to think so here, because the aircraft carrier battle group is composed of two aircraft carriers, that is, it has 310 fighter jets, carrying a squadron of fighters, that is, 246 fighter jets, and the remaining 64 fighter jets are guard aircraft.

Usually, other fighter jets go out to perform missions, and they do not need to be dispatched. At that time, their mission is to protect the safety of the aircraft carrier. In addition, when there are losses in the three squadrons, they will be drawn from these 64 fighter jets to replenish the three squadrons.

Therefore, on aircraft carriers, they are called reserve squadrons. Although they are all genuine active-duty troops and have the same level, they do not have specific numbers. If they claim to the outside world, they can only be said to be the carrier-based aircraft squadron of the Fifth aircraft carrier battle group. As for which squadron is from, no one knows.

After three years of hard work and good systematic learning experience, Yao Qin quickly stood out and began to serve as the squadron leader of the first squadron of the 163rd Brigade of the 18th Division of the Fifth Aircraft Carrier Battle Group three months ago.

Because of the different organizational structures, the brigade here is equivalent to a brigade-level unit, the squadron is a regiment, the squadron is a battalion, the team is a company, and individuals are platoons, because all the pilots are officers, and the lowest-level ones are also second lieutenants, and most of them are lieutenants or captains.

"Hairball, pull the fighter to a height of 7,000 meters to see how you look."

As soon as the fighter plane began to enter a flat flight state, Yao Qin began to instruct.

The weather today is pretty good. Although it has entered January 1943 and the weather is the coldest, the big sun and weak winds blow away the clouds and the heavy fog on the sea.

However, according to experience, in two or three hours, heavy fog will begin to rise. If they fail to go back within two hours, then there will be great danger, because when they land, they will not be able to see the runway of the aircraft carrier clearly and cannot confirm whether the fighter is aimed at the runway.

"clear!"

Maoqiu agreed, and then a fighter plane left the formation and climbed directly towards a height of 7,000 meters.

"Captain, the visibility has been affected a little bit compared to before, but it has little impact. If you look at the warship, you can still aim easily."

While watching the situation on the sea through the scope, the Maoqiu directly reported on the radio.

"Continue to climb and try to reach eight thousand meters."

Yao Qin continued to order.

Before we reach the war zone, we will first clarify the height of the attack that will be launched later, so as not to be busy later, giving the enemy too much reaction time.

In addition, this is the first time they have launched a strike against sea-surface ships. They lack confidence and their experience is basically zero. Although they have undergone a lot of training before, they are all bubble boards drawn by small ships, thrown onto the sea and float on it, and then use missiles to attack.

Although the difficulty is the same, no one can guarantee whether the other party will avoid it. After all, there is still a big difference between target shooting and actual combat. Yao Qin does not dare to be careless at all. If eighty-two Chinese swords cannot kill the eighteen warships, it would be embarrassing.

"Captain, you can get into the clouds at 7,500 meters. The best attack height is expected to be between 7,000 and 6,000 meters."

The Maoqiu did not continue to pull the fighter up, but when the fighter touched the clouds, he decisively recorded the height of the fighter, and then lowered the height of the fighter.

Flying in the clouds is a very dangerous thing. Although they have long been used to it, when they lose to their opponents, the clouds are even the basis for their lives to save their lives. Generally speaking, no one is willing to fly in the clouds, and it may be easy to crash the plane, which is very dangerous.

Moreover, there are many unknown things in the clouds, which are harmful to the fighter planes and the pilot's bodies.

"Okay, I get it."

Yao Qin replied, immediately ordered Maoqin to return to the team.

As long as the distance is detected, the next thing will be much easier. When they contacted, they fired missiles at an altitude of 10,000 meters. The hit rate of the entire squadron was 30%. Now the altitude is basically reduced by half. The hit rate must be about fifty, right?

After more than twenty minutes of flight, the fleet had arrived above the unknown fleet. Through the scope, Yao Qin clearly saw the British flag hanging on it, and the composition of the fleet was similar to what he had guessed before, including battleships, frigates, and transport ships.

Since he had received an order that he could directly sink if he was not a friend, Yao Qin did not contact the fleet and directly ordered the formation to disperse and set their own goals. Yao Qin first aimed at a small frigate.

The tonnage of this frigate is only about 2,000 tons, which is the smallest tonnage in this fleet. In terms of proportion, it is also the most difficult to fight. On the contrary, because of its huge size, battleships and transport ships are the best to fight.

Subconsciously, Yao Qin gave up the target of fighting to his soldiers. After all, only he knew his skills. If others were asked to attack this frigate, Yao Qin would not be sure. So, in order to avoid wasting a missile, he would better fight by himself.

At the entry angle, Yao Qin controlled the fighter to enter the dive state. If you observe it carefully, it is not difficult to see that the nose of the aircraft is sometimes upward, sometimes downward, sometimes left, and sometimes right. When flying for about a thousand meters, the height from the sea surface was only about 5,400 meters. Yao Qin suddenly pressed the attack button.

‘Swoosh!’
