Sometimes you have to pay a price for being too happy for a moment. For example, taking medicine, shooting pus, or emptying all the cannonballs during battle.
The 'Otto' naval gun is a compact naval gun. Its advantage lies in its compactness, small size and weight, and it can be installed on many small and medium-sized warships. As for its shortcomings..., to be honest, this
This kind of naval gun has never been used in actual combat since it became popular all over the world.
Today's battle made Captain Smith understand that too fast a rate of fire for a gun is also a shortcoming. The rate of fire of 120 rounds per minute is very satisfying, but the drum with only 80 rounds can continue for one minute.
There is no firepower.
Faced with the predicament, Captain Smith did not choose to give in. He took out his pistol and forced the gunnery commander to lead the team to reload the 'Otto' naval gun at the bow of the ship - yes, open the turret hatch and use manpower to reload the gun.
Loading.
This kind of thing is usually carried out in a safe environment, but now he no longer cares about the danger. Anyway, Captain Smith did not expect that the two army artillery guns on the rear deck used for ground attack could hit the target at sea.
"You have to have confidence. The opponent only has three small boats, less than 500 tons by visual inspection, and their firepower is very poor." Captain Smith encouraged his men. Based on his understanding of naval ships before the cataclysm, this view is correct.
.
A normal country's navy would not install too much firepower on a small boat, because it is completely unnecessary. Installing too much firepower on a small boat will cause a series of problems, such as endurance, living environment, seaworthiness, etc.
.A normal navy would not do such a thing.
But..., the PLA navy was once extremely abnormal. Especially the PLA navy in the last century was a completely stunted and deformed freak. There is no derogatory meaning here, it is a fact. Among the five big hooligans, only the PLA navy
For a long time, we relied on the "air-submarine speed" to guard the sea territory thousands of miles away.
The navy of such a large country is just a bunch of small boats. The "Four King Kongs" back then were scrap metal that was eliminated by the Bear. However, they became treasures in the Rabbit family and were the only large warships available for a long time.
Too much talking brings tears to my eyes.
To put it simply, the Rabbit family’s warships have always liked small boats equipped with cannons!
Boom boom boom..., flames continued to spurt out from the rear deck of the 'Chasing the Wind' class, and two heavy guns with a caliber of 155 mm were unleashing their power. But this bluffing sound of cannons seemed to Catalina to be a cruel joke.
, she urged the entire formation to speed up again.
"Insert the bow of the enemy ship diagonally, and let's grab a T." Catalina ordered, "Everyone is ready to open fire."
Three 037s, with eighteen gun barrels pointing diagonally into the sky. The fire control radar has locked the target. Although it has not yet entered the effective range of three kilometers, Catalina decided to fire at the maximum range. "We have more guns and more ammunition. This
Bully whenever you don’t bully!”
At a distance of six kilometers, three 037s opened fire.
The sudden flames created a long smoke ribbon on the sea. Compared with the Otto's firing rate of 120 rounds per minute, the 037's 57mm naval gun has a firing rate of 300 rounds.
Two tubes are six hundred rounds, eighteen tubes...
While Captain Smith urged the gunnery commander to reload the main gun as soon as possible, he also stared at the three enemy fast boats that were approaching. In his opinion, the enemy had to get closer to at least two thousand meters before launching an effective attack. This was at least
Five or six minutes is plenty of time.
As long as the 'Otto' main gun has five or six shells, it has a strong deterrent effect. This is the source of Captain Smith's confidence.
After all, small boats under 500 tons in Europe often only have cannons under 30 mm, or even machine guns. This firepower is too weak to deal with a thousand-ton frigate. Captain Smith even felt that even if he stood still
, the opponent may not be able to do anything to him.
Just a little while, just a little while! As long as I load the shells, killing these three little miscellaneous fishes will be like playing.
The captain decided to be calm and patient, but just as his reverie arose, countless bright spots suddenly appeared on the sea. These were hot bright spots, terrible bright spots, and deadly bright spots!
Oh..., God!
In the bridge of the 'Chasing the Wind' class ship, a bunch of people were as if they were dumbfounded. Captain Smith rushed directly to the porthole and tried to identify it carefully. He really hoped that he was wrong - this is not true, right? Bigger shit.
How could a small boat have such strong firepower?
This is a barrage, a barrage of intensive firepower!
Is the one on the other side equipped with a machine gun?
Impossible! The projectiles of a machine gun do not have such a large kinetic energy and can fly several kilometers. The caliber must be over fifty.
Captain Smith no longer needed to grab the telescope. He turned around and shouted to the officer on duty at the helm: "Turn and dodge."
The rudder deflected immediately, and the more than 1,000-ton frigate immediately tilted more than ten degrees. The officers and soldiers in the ship who were not warned were all unsteady by the sudden maneuver and fell down one after another. The dozen or so people on the deck who were loading ammunition were
Even more embarrassed, someone slipped and almost fell into the sea.
The officer at the helm did not dare to turn too much. He was staring at the course of the frigate, but suddenly he saw shells falling like rain one after another on the sea ahead, splashing water and explosions.
The firelight formed a boiling sea.
Ouch, holy shit, let’s be serious!
Captain Smith became anxious. He threw himself in front of the rudder and turned it hard. The angle of the ship's tilt immediately increased to twenty degrees. This unexpected move caused more people to fall, and some people on the deck of the ship were even thrown away.
go out.
A hail of bullets amounted to one or two hundred shells, but due to the timely steering, only two or three hit the 'Zhui Feng' class frigate. The power of the 57mm shells was still a bit small, and they only cracked a few holes on the hull.
It's a small hole and the damage is negligible.
"Gunner, when do you want to finish loading? I only need five or six rounds now, five or six rounds!" Captain Smith grabbed a walkie-talkie in the bridge and shouted loudly.
But soon someone on the intercom shouted: "Captain, our commander fell into the sea, please rescue, please rescue!"
I'll save you, you ghost!
Captain Smith was stunned, and turned to look at the sea that the ship had just sailed through. There was indeed a figure that was rising and falling, raising his hands in the air, eager for rescue - that was my gunnery commander? It seems that the trouble is getting bigger and bigger!
The captain blinked, but had no choice but to care about the life and death of his gunnery commander. He saw the three small boats approaching in the distance spitting out a dense barrage again, and while ordering the hull to maneuver to avoid again, he asked on the intercom
Personnel from the gunnery department: "How many rounds have you loaded?"
"Only five rounds loaded," the intercom shouted.
"Five rounds? Five rounds will do." Captain Smith became cruel and ordered: "Aim the bow at the incoming fast boat. The fire control department will provide target data and destroy one of the opponent's boats first."
This is a direct confrontation!
The 'Zhui Feng' class began to deflect the hull, reducing the area to be bombarded, and at the same time allowing the main guns to fire. The 037 'battleship' commanded by Catalina had also entered an effective range of three kilometers. In order to exert its firepower, her ship
It's the broadside against the enemy.
Both sides opened fire at full speed at the same time!
Boom, boom, boom..., Captain Smith's main gun fired five times in one breath. Then..., it became weak. And these five shells were successful immediately, two were missed, two were near misses, and one was near miss.
Hit the target.
In Catalina's battle line, the 037 in the middle was hit with a loud bang. A semi-armor-piercing grenade opened a large hole in the side. There was fire in the billowing smoke. It looked like this boat was like sea water.
Pouring backwards, overturning the fate that is about to happen.
After fighting for a long time, we finally hit the target, and we could even see people on the opponent's boats constantly jumping into the sea. Captain Smith immediately cheered, but was choked like a duck about to be slaughtered. There were still two ships with abnormal firepower on the opposite side.
Where is the combat boat, and our own side..., we are out of shells again.
Catalina didn't care to take a look at her own losses at this moment. She didn't even know that she had lost a 'battleship'. She only ordered to attack at full speed, and then stared at her opponent with gritted teeth.
The rate of fire of the 57mm double-barreled naval gun is like that of an AK-47 assault rifle. Once a fight begins, there will be no end to the bang. The fully automatic cannon is firing fiercely, and countless rounds of shells are fed into the barrel by the ammunition feeder.
, countless cannon flames radiated heat, and countless projectiles sprayed out of the muzzle.
At such a distance of three kilometers, it only takes three seconds for the artillery shells to reach the target. When hundreds of projectiles hit the target, the 'Zhui Feng' class frigate facing the hail of bullets felt as if it had been violently beaten.
The mast, bridge, deck, hull, and densely packed projectiles destroyed the warship beyond recognition in an instant. The mast collapsed, the bridge was shattered, the deck was damaged, the hull was on fire, and the ship was destroyed right before its eyes.
The portholes of the bridge could not withstand the dense shells, and were blown open after multiple consecutive hits. Subsequently, a large number of shells were poured in violently, and exploded wildly. The flying shrapnel completely washed the inside, and it was impossible for anyone to do so.
Survive.
What was the name of the most famous battleship used by flower growers in the 1960s?
The report is 037!
Modification 037 ‘Yellow Water Battleship’, sit.
It has a dead weight of 400 tons and a rate of fire of 600 rounds per minute. It can penetrate armor, explode and burn instantly.
