"..." Bowers looked in the direction of his companion's finger. On the dark sea, the sky that was just a little white was like a white sheet, but under the sheet, close to the sea.
, some small black spots appeared, they were only the size of mosquitoes, so Bowers had to rub his sleepy eyes, build a tent with his hands, cover his eyes and watch again.
"It's a plane!!! Where did these planes come from? They are not on the list, and the echo just now was also them!!!" A few seconds later, Powers suddenly jumped out of the car like a madman and headed towards the radar station room.
He ran away, shouting to several other people as he ran.
"What echo? Is Powers crazy?" A radar soldier who had just arrived to take over was a little confused and asked Powers's companion.
"Bowers said that an abnormal echo was discovered just now. You just happened to be here and the abnormal echo disappeared, so he just forgot about it. But if these aircraft... if..." Powers' companion
Halfway through, he couldn't continue. As a naval radar soldier, he knew what it would mean to the naval base if these aircraft were not his own.
In the room, Powers was yelling at the phone. The content probably came from the fact that the officer on duty at the headquarters was not there. The call was probably answered by an orderly. As for the aircraft, echoes, etc., the orderly could not understand most of them, so he had to go.
The officer on duty was called, and Powers could only wait with the phone.
The buzzing sound is getting louder and louder. The planes that just looked like small mosquitoes have become the size of softballs, and they are arriving in greater numbers. In a few minutes, they will fly over the radar station and then enter the harbor. Since then,
Since the establishment of this radar station, several radar soldiers have never seen so many aircraft flying together, and they have never seen their own aircraft flying in and out of the harbor from here. There was a hint of panic in their eyes.
After a few more minutes, the officer on duty still hadn't answered the phone. Powers was circling around the room with the receiver in hand. At this time, the nearest plane had flown over the radar station, and several American soldiers could clearly see these light gray
A full view of the plane. Because they fly so low, they are almost invisible from the thunder
The three-color logo on their tail fins can be clearly seen, and even the pilot's appearance in the cab can be clearly seen. Powers, who ran out of the house, actually saw
The man sitting behind the pilot on an airplane was waving to the ground.
"The aircraft of the South China Sea Federation are torpedo planes!!!" Although he was a radar soldier, Powers was also a US Navy soldier. He could also recognize this two-seat aircraft.
At 5:43, the first batch of the federal attack group crossed the Whitenay Mountains on the west side of Pearl Harbor and entered the Pearl Harbor area. The entire port had a panoramic view. 200 of the 300 aircraft in the first attack group.
According to the pre-agreement, if the attack goes well, the bomb-mounted aircraft will not attack the ships in the harbor, but will be divided into three groups. They will first bomb the three US military airports on the island, and the remaining 100 torpedo planes will attack the harbor.
If things don't go well, 300 aircraft will attack the US ships together, trying to severely damage the US fleet. As for those road-based aircraft, without the existence of the US fleet, they have no offensive capabilities and can be put aside later.
Destroy again.
This decision was made by the fleet commander who was flying at the front of the fleet and notified all the following aircraft via radio. When they flew to the top of Whitenay, the fleet commander knew that the US military was not prepared and the aircraft in the harbor were not ready. Ships of all sizes were parked densely, and the unique cage-like tall masts of American battleships were the most striking feature.
"Execute combat missions according to the first plan! Execute combat missions according to the first plan!" The commander of the fleet issued an order to the fleet through a radio intercom while pressing his face against the bulletproof glass of the cabin while counting the number of warships below.
"1, 2, 3, 4... Help me find it together. Why are there only 4 aircraft carriers? Shouldn't there be 6?" After discovering that the number of aircraft carriers in the harbor was wrong, the fleet commander patted the pilot in front. shoulder, and let the pilots count warships with him. For a fleet commander, participating in the battle is not the first priority. Understanding the battlefield situation, counting the number of enemy troops, and sending all this information to the fleet is the top priority. , these data can allow the fleet's aviation commander to make more accurate judgments based on them to adjust the deployment of the entire battlefield.
"It's 4, Colonel, there are only 4." The pilot also leaned on the glass and counted several times, and finally determined that there were only 4 aircraft carriers in the harbor.
"Just find a target and drop the bomb. I want to send the report. Drive more steadily." After the fleet commander gave the order to the pilot, he lowered his head and started to send the bomb to the fleet. He wanted to notify the fleet of this situation as soon as possible, because of this situation It was so unexpected. The two missing aircraft carriers posed a huge threat to the fleet.
When the commander of the fleet lowered his head and competed with the transmitter, there were explosions and flames in the entire harbor. 100 torpedo attack aircraft dived down from the height of the mountain, and then calmly selected their own targets. The target drops to a height of tens of meters above the sea and flies steadily towards the target. There is no need to avoid anti-aircraft fire or observe the surrounding enemy aircraft. All you need to do is fly close to a suitable distance, and then the bombardier pulls the wrench. Done!
The first to be attacked, and the most attacked, were the four aircraft carriers moored in the westernmost harbor. Because their huge bodies were very eye-catching, and the main mission of the first attack group was to attack US aircraft carriers, these Each of the four aircraft carriers attracted at least 10 torpedo attack aircraft.
The air attack came so suddenly that most of the US air defense positions did not fire. Not only were they poorly manned, but even the ammunition was still in the warehouse. They could only watch helplessly as those very low torpedo planes were fired a few hundred meters away from the aircraft carrier. , throwing torpedoes into the water one after another.
The torpedo attack aircraft that dropped the bombs did not immediately climb up and return. They suddenly climbed up, crossed over the ship, and flew towards the air defense positions around the port. The two cannons fired a string of shells and began to shoot towards the ground. Strafing. The US officers and soldiers who were helpless just now have something to do now. They were driven by strings of shells and fled in all directions. But they will soon find that ordinary walls and bunkers cannot block the warheads of the machine guns. .
When the first batch of torpedo attack aircraft were strafing all threatening targets in the port area, the remaining 200 dive bombers were also divided into three groups and arrived over the three airports on Oahu. At this time, the airport It seemed very busy. Countless ground staff and pilots had been awakened by the explosion coming from the port. When they saw the smoke column rising from somewhere, even civilians could guess what happened. Everyone was running towards Among the planes parked on both sides of the runway, two have started their engines and are taxiing to the runway.
Bombing an airport runway with a wide view is the easiest task for bombers to complete. There are no obstacles here. Everything on the airport can be clearly seen from more than ten kilometers away. Dozens of dive bombers are lined up several kilometers long.
The three columns did not use dive bombing, but flew over the runway at a semi-low altitude. The main targets of the aircraft carrying 500-kg bombs were the runway and hangar, while the attack aircraft carrying 300-kg bombs took care of those
Aircraft and anti-aircraft positions.
When the South China Sea Federation's carrier-based aircraft fleet blew over the airport like a gust of wind, nothing could be seen on the airport behind them. The entire runway and the buildings near the runway were shrouded in a layer of smoke and flames raised by the explosion.
So that the attack fleet can no longer carry out
After the second wave of cannon fire, we could only turn around and fly to the port area to see if we could use up all the shells in the cabin, because most of these planes crashed into the sea when they returned, and the pilots would not save the money they carried.
