Chapter 1021: Earl Spey’s Concern One
Chapter 1021 Count Spey's worries 1
Why did the prince dared to personally lead the team to fight the British fleet? Why did the German fleet easily scored a 6-0 record in the Thunder-Surbrus operation and completed a killing that surpassed the gods? In addition to strategic calculations, isn't it because German warships can easily penetrate the armor of British warships, and can completely kill a warship as long as a hit with a suitable position? British warships can only rely on high-explosive bombs to slowly wash away their opponents. I can punch you through, you can't punch me. This is the technical basis for the prince to dare to fight!
Why in history could Hipper easily tap off three British battle cruisers? Even in the case of being overshadowed by someone, a backhand can be okay, can you send it to heaven? Isn't it because the British Battle Tour is too fragile? And if you can’t penetrate me and I can’t penetrate you, what will happen?
Please refer to the history of Thomas’s queen who successfully transferred under the nose of the German High Seas Fleet! And if it reaches this stage, then it can be very responsible to say that it would be quite difficult for the German Navy to hit the British again. Because it is difficult for you to kill your opponent, and if you just pile up your opponent with explosives, then the efficiency is too low. Didn’t you see that the Cedric came back with 5000 tons of water? If the compressed air cylinder in the Lützoff torpedo compartment did not explode, then maybe the German BC would not be lost.
And this time, when Earl Spey realized that it was difficult for German naval guns to penetrate the armor of the Japanese fleet, he felt that the situation was not good, because the Allies had found a layout that could block the German armor-piercing projectiles, that is, basically The above solves the problem of survivability. The so-called can stand up to have output. This person who has played DOTA understands it, Earl has not played it, but they also understand...
"Our armor-piercing projectile cannot penetrate the core compartment of the Japanese Fuso-class battleship even at a distance of about 12,000 meters. I personally think that even the 15-inch naval gun of the Bavarian-class battleship, at a distance of 15,000 kilometers, is not right. It is estimated that it will be difficult to penetrate the opponent. The Japanese Fuso-class battleship is successful in defense. If the British learn from the Japanese warship design and improve subsequent warships based on this, it will be very difficult for us to sink the opponent." In the report, the earl wrote without worry.
"From the experience of this engagement, it is better to use semi-armor-piercing shells to attack Fuso-class battleships when the enemy’s armor cannot be penetrated. The defense of the non-key protection zones of Fuso-class battleships can only be regarded as general, with only 3 to 4 at the end The armor belt is very fragile and can’t even withstand the attack of medium-caliber naval guns. At the same time, the horizontal armor of Fuso-class battleships may be relatively fragile. We have observed suspected penetration data. The shell hit the middle of the hull. Power cabin. After the hit, the Japanese warship showed obvious signs of slowing down. It should not only destroy the flue."
"On the whole, the Japanese Navy’s combat quality level is relatively high. According to our statistics, the Japanese Navy’s hit rate is slightly higher than the Joint Force. The Joint Force is the highest-quality team in the entire Austro-Hungarian fleet. The artillery of the fleet since the second naval battle. I believe that the Japanese navy’s level is higher than that of the French and Austro-Hungarian fleets, and slightly higher than that of the British Grand Fleet. Even within the German High Seas Fleet, it is considered to be a medium to upper level. Ignored fleet."
"The combat will of the Japanese Navy's auxiliary fleet is very tenacious. In this naval battle, in order to cover the retreat of the main fleet, all 8 destroyers were sunk. Even when our side was in an overwhelming advantage, the Japanese destroyer forces still launched. It’s amazing to charge to the death. Relatively speaking, I think the quality of the Japanese destroyer forces is higher. The battle that I thought could end in 10 minutes was delayed for 20 minutes."
In the subsequent documents, the Piaget also mentioned the importance of aviation power, but unlike the Japanese, the Piaget emphasized the importance of aviation reconnaissance for false shooting! "Aircraft can easily avoid the smoke screens released by battleships and provide information on the impact points of their own warships via radio. The main opponent's smoke screen is not thick enough to cover a large area of the sea, so the smoke screen's protective effect is very limited. In the case of Japanese battleships releasing smoke screens, relying on aircraft corrective shooting still achieved a good hit rate, only about 40% lower than normal! This was unimaginable before.
"I once asked the pilots of seaplanes. Their planes seem to have surplus carrying capacity in addition to fuel. So I have been wondering whether we can install flares and other auxiliary tools on the seaplanes. This will attack us. The goal at night will be very helpful. Even at night, if the seaplane is equipped with indicator lights, it should be possible to recover through a special seaplane carrier."
"I once read some information from the Air Force, and I suddenly realized that fleet air defense has reached a problem that needs to be considered. The original machine gun range is too close, and the 88MM anti-lightning gun cannot be used for air defense at all, neither shooting nor its response speed. The 40MM cannon is good (a 2-pounder in Bavaria). If possible, I hope to provide us with some. If it is not possible, I can also provide some large-caliber machine guns to make do with it."
"Of course ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ there is a cheaper and more efficient way, that is to install a large-caliber machine gun on the seaplane, or simply put two floats on the fighter jets as a seaplane." Inadvertently the count seemed to feel it. He caught something. He realized that what he thought was very important, but he couldn't figure it out. So he decided to write these things down and hand them to the prince so that the mighty Bavarian prince could solve it. Question!
At this point, the technical part of the Earl’s campaign report is basically completed. The remaining content is all kinds of crying poor, hoping to obtain more personnel, materials and accessories from the local area. After hesitating for a while, he also specially put the inventory 20% of the materials are concealed....... At the same time, he also emphasized that the Allied forces should pay attention to the situation in the Balkans, and pointed out that Greece is already ready to move, and Romania seems to be watching. Then, after reading it again and feeling that there would be no problems, he handed it over to the adjutant.
"Remember, when necessary, concealing material reserves is for the victory of the war, while concealing food, alcohol, and candy is a required course for commanders. It can’t satisfy the soldiers’ stomachs, so don’t think about gaining the support of the soldiers. "Afterwards, the count taught his students triumphantly.
