Chapter 154 Combat Against Ships 2(1/2)
Spike and I fired four air-to-air missiles in succession, and the Satsuma mechas immediately began to evade out of habit. In fact, our missiles spread out very widely. The main purpose was not to shoot them down, but to disperse them.
eeodas captured the image of the Satsuma fleet at the first time: three warships without any markings, equipped with a large number of barrel artillery and vertical launchers, and the shape is largely different from the weapons of the old century. One of them consists of multiple
The super-large battleship outlined by the ridges is opening the "A"-shaped sloping armor on the top, revealing rows of "green eyes" that shine with cold light.
Can't let it out!
As soon as the idea came to mind, I hovered the [Black Falcon] according to the parameters given by the radar, opened the two locks in one breath, and fired the two parallel anti-ship missiles on the back. The huge guy fired from the [Black Falcon]
It rushed out from behind and shot out of my sight at an incredible speed, but I knew that the density of this attack was far from enough.
"Spikes!"
Without any instructions, the spikes drove the huge mecha underneath and moved up. However, the Satsuma mecha soldiers who reacted gathered again and kept firing their armored machine guns in this direction, trying to interfere with the aiming of the spikes.
"It's so annoying."
I held the armored machine gun in my backhand, turned on the afterburner like a wild bull with red eyes, and charged towards the huge [Garand] fleet!
Due to time constraints and the inability to develop new ammunition, the new armored machine gun of the 715 [Black Falcon] directly uses the 37 mm caliber of the old heavy anti-aircraft gun, and the barrel is lengthened to 75 times the caliber to increase the penetration depth. However,
Compared with the Allied Forces' buried bombs and the Treaty Army's large-caliber heavy bombs, their power is obviously insufficient.
Then we have to make up for it with distance.
[Black Falcon] was like black lightning, approaching the captain's machine in one breath. The Satsuma mecha soldiers were obviously startled, but this guy's fierceness remained unchanged, and he quickly raised his armored machine gun and pointed it at [Black Falcon]
]'s chest, ready to fight me tooth and nail.
I hit the lever, press down, switch pedals, and buckle the gun button. I performed three actions in one breath.
[Black Falcon] immediately ignited the side nozzle to deflect, and at the same time lowered its height to pass the sniper attack of the armored machine gun, and put its own armored machine gun almost against the mechanical limb of [Garand] and fired.
The two planes passed by with a hair-raising margin of error, and with the loud sound of metal bursting at the intersection point, one of the lower limbs of [Garand] was completely shattered by more than a dozen armor-piercing bullets that penetrated at high speed, and the main engine dragged the smoke to the ground.
Get out of position and run away.
"Long"
Turning the body over, all the nozzles on the back erupted with blue-white light. Shaken by the super strong g-force that almost crushed the entire tough frame, I finally stopped the body like crazy, and at the same time raised the armored machine gun and fired at the severely injured
The captain's plane swept wildly, and its armor plate fragments fell away like snow.
"Asshole, idiot, come and help me!"
The captain let out an unpleasant howl directly on the public channel, and the rest of the Satsuma mecha soldiers reacted and rushed to support them desperately.
At this time, several lines of fire mixed with large-caliber high-explosive bombs split the airspace and scattered the entire fleet of [Garand] aircraft. When I lowered my head, I saw [Shilka] climbing up from below, with fixed weapons all over its body.
They are all breathing fire, but its back is empty.
very good.
Understanding it in my mind, I immediately turned and dived away from the entanglement of the [Garand], adjusted to a suitable height, launched the only two anti-ship missiles in one go, and then immediately turned over to fight.
Moments later, four explosion signals were picked up on my radar.
"Everything is going crazy here!"
I shouted while shooting at the Satsuma Army mechas running around me. Soon, there was a response from the spikes.
"I am here too."
Then comes the most critical question.
"Did it hit?"
I can't answer because I have never used anti-ship missiles before. It is already very good to be able to aim and launch them. As for how to confirm the results, it is even more impossible.
"Of course not."
A voice suddenly sounded on the channel.
My first reaction was that I was hallucinating, because it turned out to be Hugo's voice!
The next second, the sea surface below suddenly cracked like a piece of cut cloth. The huge crack passed by the two groups of mechas that were still fighting in the melee at an extremely fast speed, and continued to extend forward at an alarming speed.
This is a scenario that only occurs when large aircraft carry out ultra-low-altitude raids.
Could it be...
The [Garand] fleet obviously saw this strange scene, but these guys didn't panic. As the one-legged captain aircraft roared hysterically, the Satsuma mecha soldiers immediately abandoned us and chased the aircraft, firing shells at it.
There are water jets on the sea surface.
Of course we refused to let it go. We fired missiles from behind to interfere with it while connecting to communications.
The speed of all mechas is twice the speed of sound. In the atmosphere, any distance is of little significance to this speed.
Soon, the hill-like Satsuma fleet appeared at the junction of the sea and the sky. You can see that the turrets of all the warships are smoking, but there are no signs of injury. It seems that the missile salvo just now was either missed or intercepted.
.
Suddenly, the water film cracked, and the [Bellington], which still maintained the sandy yellow paint during the test, revealed its powerful metal body. This guy also carried anti-ship missiles, but it was a small one. Compared to our equipment
It is a big thing that looks like a small whale. Its power is relatively weak, and it is generally only strong enough to deal with ships below five thousand tons. However, its advantage is that it is very fast, and can reach Mach 1 or above.
"Cover him!"
While roaring, I fired the last two missiles at a [Garand].
Regardless of whether I hit it or not, I pressed the joystick and dived down quickly, aiming the armored machine gun at a [Garand] that was trying to lower its height to intercept.
Under the pressure of the strong G-force, the aiming aperture jumped up and down like a mad dog. I took a deep breath, then held it in and focused all my attention on the opponent's back.
Toggle, release, snap, release again.
Finally I couldn't hold my breath anymore, so I pulled the [Black Falcon] out of the attack position, and when I adjusted my field of vision, I happened to see two blazing fireballs falling one after another.
The road spike also bit one. It first used unguided high-explosive bombs to blow the Garand out of the formation, then bit it again and fired a few short bursts to steadily shoot it down. The whole process was like a tactic.
The simulation is just as smooth.
The Satsuma mecha soldiers were shocked, but these guys still didn't panic. They immediately divided into two units, used two-thirds of the force to deal with our two mechas, and used one-third of the force to deal with Hugo. This was a more correct decision.
It is judged that under normal circumstances, the air combat capability of a mecha equipped with large-mass anti-ship missiles is less than 50% of its normal state.
The Satsuma mechas relied on their numerical advantage to attack in turns. This tactic had a certain effect. At least the spikes and I were firmly entangled.
A [Garand] chose a tricky angle and attacked [Bellington] from behind. At this time, if [Bellington] didn't want to lose control and fall into the sea, it would never be possible to make a big move.
Maneuver.
"Hugo, get the fuck out of here."
I was so anxious that I yelled.
But Hugo still kept his head down and rushed forward, paying no attention to the mecha attacking behind him.
Suddenly, [Bellington]'s back mechanism moved mechanically, revealing the weapon that had been hidden by the huge missile launcher - a 60mm Gatling cannon!
"Da da da"
The two six-barreled cannons simultaneously erupted with a cloak-like metal rainstorm. The [Garand] trembled violently like a convulsion in the air. Large pieces of its body were blown away by the projectiles, and it disintegrated into countless pieces of debris in less than two seconds.
Broken parts!
What a violent firepower!
But compared to the Gatling cannon, I am more amazed by Hugo's scheming. Unlike half a year ago when he went into battle, this guy knew how to consciously retain his trump card and exert his maximum power at critical moments.
After defeating his pursuers, [Bellington] ran like a football player holding a ball, but what greeted him was not relaxation but—even more intense firepower.
The first is the ship-to-air missile on each warship, which opens the outermost fire network at a speed of about ten rounds. Compared with airborne missiles, ship-based missiles are larger and have a longer range. More importantly, the charge
The amount of weapons is also more sufficient, and the micro-armor-breaking connecting rods are opened airtightly. I am afraid that only the assault-type mechas known for their powerful armor protection can escape from this terrifying killing net.
The second is the 155mm high-level and flat dual-purpose cannon on the ocean-going combat ship. With a terrifying rate of fire of twenty rounds per minute, it fires a special armor-piercing projectile with an initial velocity of five times the speed of sound. Any aircraft body is even lightly touched.
For a moment, no matter how strong the armor and structure are, they cannot escape the fate of being dismembered. The Satsuma Army has a total of eight such artillery pieces. Although the firepower density is not high, once it is hit, the consequences will be very fatal.
Then there are the 57mm automatic cannons on each battleship. As a rare old weapon on new battleships, although this type of artillery is not very powerful, the power of a single shot is not even enough to kill old-fashioned mechas like [Jacques].
However, the rate of fire can reach a terrifying 150 rounds per minute. Heavy-duty ships can carry four such automatic turrets, while ocean-going combat ships can carry six. The barrage formed in an instant is enough to drown any incoming missiles and aircraft.
First.
The last is a personal protective net composed of a bunch of 20mm Gatling cannons. However, this protective net is not used to attack mechas, but to intercept any incoming projectiles at a rate of fire that can easily reach thousands of rounds per minute.
.
There is no doubt that this is a frightening defensive lineup.
However, Hugo drove [Bedlington] and plunged in without hesitation. His actions were simple: break through, break through, and break through again.
I simply can't describe the assault mode like a Western rapier: the simplest movement, the maximum speed, the lowest frequency of orbit changes, and his only target is the Satsuma Army battleship!
Within a few breaths, [Bellington] had already protruded through the first three defense circles. Although the mecha's shell was battered and bruised, the four small anti-ship missiles on its back were miraculously unscathed.
The Gatling cannon fired wildly, and the flying lines of fire armed the entire fleet like a fire hedgehog, trying to snipe [Bellington]'s actions, but even so, [Bellington] still stubbornly advanced two steps and entered.
The ideal launch position, at this moment it also paid a heavy price - half of its head was blown away by a stray bullet.
Four anti-ship missiles shot out of the launcher in one go, and the targets were all the most obviously heavily loaded fleets. This time, not only were they Gatling cannons, but even the 57mm automatic cannon, which was not suitable for interception, was also deployed.
To be continued...
