The brutality of the landing battle in the Green Zone was eye-catching.
When the two top blue star combat forces of the red and blue sides had an ultimate battle on the coast of the small Green Island, all the countries watching were glad that they had not been involved in this conflict before.
At present, the entire confrontation appears to be very subtle as a whole.
On the European side, the British military force was supposed to assist the blue side, and they also sent an aircraft carrier and two Type 45 destroyers to join the combined fleet. After all, the once dominant empire on the sea has lost its former glory. It really doesn't matter.
How many families can afford it? There are only two aircraft carriers in the entire empire. One of them is still under repair. It has been repaired for more than two years. It has not left the port. Sending one over is already a great help.
But unexpectedly, when the British aircraft carrier formation was halfway there, it suddenly became clear that something was wrong.
What happened?
The boat is broken.
That's right, the aircraft carrier is broken.
What's the problem?
water leakage.
That's right, the aircraft carrier is leaking water.
Not only did it leak, but the electronic components were damaged, and the whole thing was ruined.
It can be said that this British aircraft carrier has always had a tradition of water leakage. The two aircraft carriers have a water leakage almost every one or two years, and then go to the port for repairs for a period of time.
Blue Fang believes that they didn't do it on purpose and really missed it.
So, when it arrived, only two Type 45 frigates came.
When the blue side took a look at it, they felt that the presence and arrival of these things did not seem to be helpful to the battle situation, so they simply let them play soy sauce on the Pearl Island and be responsible for the back support mission.
In other words, there is no need to play.
The masters competed with each other, but a weakling came along, and they were distracted to protect him, so it would be better not to take him.
As for the Gallic Chicken, they originally promised to send an aircraft carrier to help, but they must suppress the red side's arrogance and so on.
This was originally a good plan, and the blue team had even arranged the attack position for the Gallic Chicken.
Of course, the plan was finalized at that time when the red party was being attacked by the two fronts from the east and west.
But later, White's efforts on the western front ended in failure. A surprise force from the Red and Iron sides invaded its capital from the northwest, and when they came to the city walls, White finally bowed its head and signed an alliance under the city walls. This move really shocked Blue's allies.
So, as expected, this incident happened unexpectedly.
What happened?
Oh, it's not a leak, it's the propeller that flew off.
Of course, this is not the first time that the propeller has flown.
Aircraft carrier without propeller?
It sounds magical.
But reality is anything but magical.
To be honest, the original design of the Gallic Chicken aircraft carrier was very successful, but its supporting facilities did not keep up.
First of all, the aircraft carrier Gallic Chicken is very advanced, with H power. The power plant uses the same K15 reactor as the nuclear submarine. Because Gallic Chicken's life was not easy in those years, the landlords did not have any spare capacity, so the original plan was to build a
ship.
Since only one ship was planned, there was no need to develop a naval reactor specifically, so the designers with great imagination moved a set of marine-grade reactors from the submarine.
The efficiency of the so-called H power reactor depends on the abundance of the reactor. The higher the abundance, the higher the efficiency; the lower the abundance, the lower the efficiency.
For example, the A1B and S9G reactors used by the blue team's Ford-class aircraft carriers and Virginia-class submarines have an abundance of 97%. Even the submarine reactors used on Da Mao's Boreas submarines have an abundance of 21-45%, while the Gallic Chicken
The abundance of the K15 reactor transplanted from our own submarine to the aircraft carrier is only a pitiful 20-40%...
The problem caused by this design is that the full-load power is small. The original design had a maximum speed of 35 knots. It has been in service for more than 20 years now, and the speed has not exceeded level 24. During the trial, it reached full power when it reached 24 knots.
Once, the military was dissatisfied with the turtle crawling speed and asked to continue accelerating. As a result, the propeller flew away as soon as it accelerated...
If the speed cannot be reached, a series of problems will be exposed later. Another is the short fuel replacement cycle, which requires transitional replacement of nuclear fuel every few years, which also involves the issue of deployment cycle.
Of course, the Gallic Chicken aircraft carrier has more than this problem. For example, their steam catapult has been built for more than ten years without success. They asked Blue Fang to buy a catapult. Blue Fang is a brother who is a brother, and a business is a business. A catapult
The asking price is $24 million.
Even if the price is high, the one given is the castrated version. Blue uses the C13 type on its own aircraft carrier, and the castrated version sold to Gallic Chicken is called the C13-3 type.
In this regard, the blue side has its own excuse, saying that the tonnage of the Gallic Chicken aircraft carrier is small and cannot accommodate their original C13 catapult. It is said that a special catapult was specially customized for the Gallic Chicken brothers.
Just one word difference, the C13-3 catapult is much less powerful, the cylinder capacity is 50% smaller than the C13, and the ejection power is also reduced by 15%.
Another issue is the failure of domestic research and development of Gallic Chicken's early warning aircraft. It also purchased the E2-C Hawkeye early warning aircraft from Blue Fang, but as a result, problems with supporting facilities arose.
The engine power of the domestic carrier-based early warning aircraft originally planned to be carried by the Gallic Chicken was larger, and the ejection power required was not that great. Now that the research and development of the domestic early warning aircraft has failed, I can only buy the blue one, and the blue one is the E2-
The power of the C Hawkeye early warning aircraft is not as powerful as the original design of the Gallic Chicken. In addition, it is now using a castrated version of the catapult. Therefore, the catapult power is insufficient, the aircraft carrier speed is not enough, and it cannot meet the required windward take-off speed. I bought it
The Hawkeye early warning aircraft cannot bounce off the Gaul Chicken's own aircraft carrier at all...
What to do in the end?
How can we say that Gauljijia has always been the birthplace of Lao Ou’s art?
Design it!
If it doesn’t work, change it!
So another section of steel plate was welded in front of the deck, which lengthened the deck distance by a full 4.5 meters, making it usable.
Maybe it’s because White was defeated, maybe it’s because Gallic Chicken’s aircraft carrier is really ineffective, maybe it’s because he rushed over to help Blue in a hurry, but accidentally threw the propeller away halfway...
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Finally, two Horizon-class destroyers came.
Um……
It's better than not coming at all.
Let’s talk about other things.
Take kangaroos for example. Kangaroos have always been quite obedient in the past, and they also bark quite loudly.
But when the blue side was attacked at the yellow side's home port and 80% of the yellow side's fleet was annihilated, they suddenly became polite. They didn't have an aircraft carrier, only amphibious assault ships and submarines. Now they don't even send amphibious assault ships.
Yes, they said they would send two submarines...
As for Huang Fang, it is loyal and willing to send anything. Unfortunately, the remaining 20% of its maritime power is deployed in the north, and its ground troops in the mainland are also deployed in the north.
Ever since before the final showdown between Red and Blue, Da Mao has been acting like a monster. Today he test-fired a few missiles in the direction of the Four Islands, and tomorrow he will drag his fleet there to perform various exercises with swords and guns. Anyway, there will be no peaceful day and no trouble.
Even though Huang Fang wanted to send troops to help his father, he couldn't. He was afraid that if he left the front heel, he would directly land on the mainland from the four islands and head south...
Therefore, this Green Island confrontation can actually be regarded as a one-on-one duel between the red and blue sides.
However, because the satellite network of the red side has not yet been restored, Miyajima was not destroyed. Although the interception by drones achieved very good results, the losses were also considerable.
The first is sea and air power. In order to intercept the continuous carrier-based aircraft taking off from the three blue aircraft carrier strike groups, as well as intercept the fighter jets taking off from the Miyajima base, the three red aircraft carriers are deployed on the north and south sides of Green Island.
The formation used all its capabilities. The J15 cooperated with aircraft taking off from the southeastern coast and the northern theater to intercept the blue fighter group and bomber group.
Due to the inability to use the German series missiles to carry out long-range strikes against the blue side's aircraft carrier strike group, the interception effect was not ideal and almost desperate. However, the blue side's bomber group did not need to enter the red side's shore-based missile strike range and could
Various cruise missiles and anti-ship missiles are used outside the defense zone to attack the defenders in the green zone and the red aircraft carrier.
The interceptor bombs of the aircraft carrier formation are also limited. If the satellite guidance capability cannot be restored before the interceptor bombs are used up and an attack is launched against the blue aircraft carrier strike group, then the red aircraft carrier formation that has exhausted the interceptor bombs must return to resupply.
As a result, the air interception force in the direction of Green Island will be greatly weakened, and the pressure on the troops on the island will increase sharply.
Of course Li Zheng understood this problem, but there was nothing he could do about it.
In addition to replenishing stars and quickly restoring navigation and guidance capabilities, the only way to delay the blue attack is the infiltration team led by Lao Cen and Fatty Wei. There is no news yet, and it is unknown whether they are dead or alive.
