The dwarves have their own aircraft carriers, but these aircraft carriers are really lagging behind compared to the aircraft carriers used by the Tang Army.
Basically, with the exception of the Tang Army's aircraft carrier, the aircraft carriers used by countries around the world were of World War II-era technology that did not even have steam catapults.
These wooden-deck aircraft carriers have only a straight flight deck, no advanced arresting cable equipment, and no landing assistance system.
Of course, they do not have angled decks, and most of them do not even use side elevators: many aircraft carriers have elevators in the middle of the deck, which seriously affects the efficiency of the deck.
Why not improve these problems? Because compared with the real core problems, the backward and outdated technologies mentioned above are just innocuous minor problems.
The navies of various countries do not have reliable electronic systems that cannot be suppressed by interference, and their communication and radar systems cannot be used in the confrontation with the Tang Army.
This is equivalent to saying that the swordsman is blind and deaf. How much threat can this state pose? I'm afraid it's almost like a joke.
What's even more amusing is that this swordsman's sword... isn't very sharp. If you really want to compare it, what he's holding is more like a wooden stick.
Except for the Tang Army, all naval carrier-based aircraft in the world are propeller-type. Some use Zero carrier-based aircraft, and some use various American aircraft.
Whether they are Japanese or American, these aircraft are technologies sold by the Tang Empire. The commanders of the Tang Army know exactly how much they weigh and what they can do.
In fact, it is not necessary to know so clearly, because there is a huge generation gap in the combat effectiveness of the two sides. Under such a generation gap, those expensive and sophisticated naval aircraft for countries around the world are actually just scrap metal.
The elves also have aircraft carriers, and their aircraft carriers also use the technology of the dwarf aircraft carrier generation. Their approximate level is no different from that of Akagi Shokaku and the like.
At a high level, you can touch the tail of an Essex class, and at a low level, it is the level of a Japanese crispy chicken. And the basic design ideas and core power units of these aircraft carriers are actually drawings provided by Datang Group
.
The radars used on these ships all come from a radar company in Dorne. The owner of this company is famous in the arms trading market of the Eastern Continent. His name is Pan Yiping, and he is a man who can steal some key technologies from the Datang Group.
Cruel person.
The performance of the radar provided by this big boss is quite good, at least ten years ahead of the equipment produced by other countries. With such technical advantages, Pan Yiping's radar company has achieved great success.
Against the background of this story, Datang Group has a clear understanding of the technical characteristics and signal frequency bands of radars used by naval vessels of these countries.
In the past, if the navies of various countries wanted to passively avoid war, they only needed to hang out at sea to get rid of their opponents and avoid the fate of being attacked.
The Tang army once spent a lot of time and energy looking for enemy fleets that were avoiding battle. Now it seems that such a thing will never happen again, because Tang's artificial satellites are already flying all over the sky.
Within a few weeks, Bernard had confirmed the specific location of the dwarf naval fleet. The only reason why there was no massacre was that the Tang Army's fleet had to cover the landing and maintain air superiority over the landing site, and had no time to leave.
Now they have handed over the task to the Air Force, so the entire fleet only has the auxiliary task of "protecting maritime transportation".
With the Tang Empire's technological advantages, escorting was actually very simple. The opponent's submarines could not pose a threat at all, so there was almost no pressure.
Then annihilating the enemy fleet has become the only thing that Bernard cares about now: anyway, as long as the enemy fleet is completely annihilated, then the escort mission will be almost completed.
In order to add some drama to themselves, the navy even took the initiative to take over tasks such as attacking enemy port cities, destroying the opponent's naval submarine base, and paralyzing the opponent's ship maintenance and manufacturing capabilities.
There is no way, it is too complicated. The Army has begun to expand the battlefield, and the Air Force has gradually launched strategic attacks. If the Navy does not work hard, it is very likely that it will be completely marginalized.
After all, in Bernard's opinion, after completing the landing operation, the Endless Sea is likely to become the inner lake of the Tang Empire. Under such circumstances, the importance of the navy is obviously reduced. If he does not work hard, there will be
He may have become the first retired marshal in the history of the Tang Dynasty.
In the waters near Rewind Port, the size of the combined coalition fleet is actually not small. There are two aircraft carriers from the dwarves and three aircraft carriers from the elves, plus seven or eight battleships, a dozen cruisers and more than thirty destroyers. How come
It’s all spectacular to look at.
But everyone knows that such a fleet actually has no actual combat effectiveness. When facing the navy of the Tang Empire, they are no different from being helpless.
Compared with the slow progress of the army, the navy's maneuvers are actually faster. The remaining fleet of the Dornish navy has also arrived in the nearby waters. They have two old aircraft carriers, two battleships and more than ten escort ships.
Including seven supply ships, this relatively small fleet has been hiding in the waters near Bunas, and it can move north very quickly after receiving orders.
The reason why Dorne decided to send half of the battleships north is also very simple. These large battleships are actually of little use. In addition to their ocean-going maneuverability, their combat effectiveness is not significantly improved compared to torpedo boats.
So it is better to simply send it to the coalition forces as a favor, which can also be regarded as showing an attitude, an attitude of uniting to fight against the Tang State.
Like the elves and dwarves, Dorne's aircraft carrier technology is not very good. Moreover, these two early experimental aircraft carriers were built earlier and the technology is even more backward. They can only carry about 80 carrier-based aircraft, and these carrier-based aircraft
It's not advanced either.
If you include Dorne's fleet heading north, the coalition fleet has 7 aircraft carriers, equipped with about 500 carrier-based aircraft, more than 80 escort ships including battleships, and more than 20 supply ships...
In comparison, the Tang Army's troops going south were not as huge as imagined. In order to ensure continued combat capabilities, half of the Tang Army's aircraft carriers have returned to enter maintenance or supply repair status.
The remaining aircraft carriers still need to maintain route security and ensure that the coastline and ports are not disturbed, so this time Bernard "only" brought four aircraft carriers to the battle. It can also be seen from here that even Navy Marshal Bernard
This battle was not taken seriously, and the Tang navy did not even assemble symbolically.
