To be more detailed, when attacking the port, the torpedo entry depth should be set appropriately according to the depth of the water level. For example, when attacking the port target, in order to prevent the torpedo from sinking directly into the water, it needs to be added after the torpedo. A wooden stabilizing device reduces the depth of water entry. When attacking warships protected by anti-submarine nets, it is best to use 700KG-class heavy torpedoes. These torpedoes are relatively powerful. After the mine head is equipped with a cutter, the lightning net can be directly torn apart.
To attack an ordinary ship in the strait, an ordinary 500kg torpedo with a charge of 100kg is sufficient. And to attack the former dreadnought, heavy torpedoes are also needed. Some people may ask, can you not attack the former dreadnought? In theory, of course, it is possible, but you can't ignore the rapid-fire guns and anti-air artillery mounted on the dreadnoughts in actual combat, right? After all, torpedoes are flying against the sea when they attack! With no luck, an old artillery cannon can blow a bomber worth hundreds of thousands of marks to pieces!
The protection of pilots must also be done well. Considering that the British Air Force does not have anti-air weapons with a power of more than 20MM cannons, it is still very good to equip pilots with armor at this time. The once ancient breastplate is resurrected at this moment! Well, to be honest, on the ground, the machine gunner is already equipped with a heavy steel body armor that resembles a lobster carapace.
General fighter pilots don’t have this kind of armor, otherwise, once they make a maneuver in battle, don’t things happen? These heavy-duty bulletproof vests lined with canvas and asbestos are prepared for bomber gunners, especially in the front and rear two most vulnerable areas. After testing, in theory, this heavy-duty body armor can block the bullets and shrapnel of the 7.7MM machine gun after breaking the body shell. As for the 13.2MM bullet? Broken projectiles are still possible, if they are intact? Ask for your blessings.
As an expert in dealing with bombers, what is the Bavarian Air Force Natural Way bomber afraid of? Therefore, as the attacker this time, the Bavarian Air Force also completed improvements to the bomber. For example, armor has been generally added to the K6 and K8 bombers. Both bombers are equipped with DB series engines and are fully armored. Especially in some key bearing positions on the abdomen of the aircraft, the Germans also appropriately added some armor. After all, the prince is very aware of the weakness of the bomber, and it must be strengthened here. The K8 bomber can also be equipped with a belly turret because of its larger size.
The best bomber will be shot down, so the rescue of the drowning crew must be considered. If you accidentally transfer to the inside of the Strait of Dover, you can only hope that the British will get you up as soon as possible, and then rest assured Be a prisoner. If you are lucky enough to fly out of the British control area, you can see the search and rescue team composed of the German navy, whether it is at the east entrance of the Strait of Dover or on the coast of Belgium. ! This time the Germans allocated a group of patrol boats and destroyers from the navy as a special search and rescue fleet. Of course, they will also be protected by battleships and the air force.
As for fighter jets, the early short-range J3 fighters will gradually disappear from the **** fleet. There are a total of these types of aircraft that are mainly responsible for cover tasks. The J6 fighters responsible for air combat and the newly numbered J7 swallow monoplanes, The fighter has higher speed and better climb. With a 400-horsepower liquid-cooled engine, the maximum flight speed of the J7 Swallow fighter exceeds 240 kilometers per hour! And equipped with a 20MM machine gun at the nose position, and the other two machine guns are arranged at the root of the wing! Relying on 400KG of internal fuel, under the conditions of low-speed flight in World War I, and the auxiliary fuel tank, it was enough for the J7 aircraft to cover the bomber group into London. The J6 is generally used to cover bombers over Dover.
In this war, the K4 twin-engine aircraft that once contributed to the Luftwaffe was not absent. The so-called classic is a classic, and may not be eternal, but from the beginning of the war to the present, K4 and its various improvements Has been active on the battlefield, and this time, K4 is also not absent!
This time, the K4H twin-engine fighter is not to hunt down the British bombers, nor is it to fight against the agile fighters, but to deal with the British interceptor fleet! Although the air combat performance of interceptors is destined to be not as good as fighters of the period. However, its huge body and excellent protection still make it difficult for these guys to be shot down. Using fighter jets alone is very inefficient.
Toru Precht’s blessing, when designing the K4 light bomber, the Germans actually designed it as a complex of a heavy fighter and a light bomber. Although the bomb load is not large, there is no magazine. However, the weight saved greatly improves the strength and flight performance of the aircraft. Although fighting with fighters such as camels will definitely suffer, its high-altitude and high-speed performance and good firepower are enough to make it competent for the mission of interceptor killers!
The combat mission of this aircraft is to use high speed and strong firepower under the cover of fighters to avoid the fierce frontal firepower of interceptors to attack from the rear or above, and then one blow away to find the next opportunity, or Directly disperse the opponent's formation and interfere with the opponent's attack. After all, a single non-formation interceptor poses a much smaller threat to the bomber group.
Considering that it is not a behemoth like the V1500, the K4H fighter is only equipped with three 20MM machine guns and one 12.7MM machine gun as a rangefinder machine gun. The types of bombs used are also ordinary bombs and incendiary bombs designed to deal with fighter targets. The armor of the K4H has also been reduced because there is no need to impact the bomber's machine gun fire net. Part of the weight is saved.
This aircraft has another role besides being an "interceptor hunter", that is, as a fighter that has been in the air for a long time, hovering over the opponent's airport, waiting for the opportunity to attack British fighters that take off and land. After all, the best airplanes are vulnerable when taking off and landing. Although the K4H fighter is not very maneuverable, it is just as fast. If you don’t want to fight once you are hit by a fighter, it’s okay to drive around. This kind of attack does not seek to kill many opponents, only to disrupt the opponent's rhythm.
Similar tactics existed in World War II. For example, in the middle and late stages of the war, the Mustang fighter jets checking the water meters above German airports. And now the Germans use dual-engine K4H fighter jets is also a helpless move, no way, the range of single-engine aircraft is really a problem... This problem can even be attributed to the limitations of history!
