The first thousand two hundred and forty-two chapters are powerless
‘Pennsylvania, the sinking of the USS Battleship gave a great blow to the US Navy at William.
Admiral Benson and others moved from the 'Pennsylvania, to 'Ohio,' the entire fleet was actually in a state of unmanned chaos. This situation was until the flagship flagship rose again in 'Ohio,' the USS.
It was only after it was launched that it could change. But at that time, the US Navy was powerless to make things happen!
When the USS Battleship of Pennsylvania was besieged, the USS Battleship of New Jersey was also besieged by four Ospreys, torpedo attack aircraft, and eight Fish Eagles and dive bombers.
'New Jersey, the battleship launched a heroic counterattack, but it still did not destroy these fighters before the Osprey, the torpedo attack aircraft dropped bombs until the four Osprey, the torpedo attack aircraft were at a distance of more than 400 meters from the New Jersey, the battleship.
After dropping the torpedo and starting to pull it up, an Osprey, and the torpedo attack aircraft was hit and exploded in the air. However, four torpedoes had already reached the high speed.
The battleship of New Jersey rushed forward. At the same time, eight fish eagles and dive bombers also began to attack. The sharp roar sounded over the battleship, which was unbearable.
'New Jersey, the battleship began to accelerate its avoidance, just like a wounded whale, swaying left and right on the sea. The American Navy officers and soldiers on the battleship held the handrail tightly, and prayed to God, praying that they would not be hit.
But, everything was futile. Two of the four torpedoes hit the battleship of New Jersey. One exploded a large hole at the bow of the ship, and the other exploded at the ship's part. Although, New Jersey
The waterline armor of the battleship was very thick, but it still could not withstand the power of the explosion of 120 kilograms of fierce explosives. The thick armor was easily torn a large hole of more than two meters long! Among the 8 falling aviation bombs,
Some hit the target, and the other five fell into the sea. However, these three aviation bombs directly demanded the order of the battleship of the New Jersey! One bomb hit the battleship of the New Jersey, and exploded the starboard side of the battleship of the New Jersey.
A secondary gun and two anti-aircraft guns were detonated, and a bunch of anti-aircraft shells ignited a raging fire. Another bomb exploded on the front deck, directly blowing out a large pit with a diameter of more than two meters. Finally,
A bomb hit the rear deck of the battleship, and almost wiped the rear main gun and smashed the armor on the rear deck. The bomb exploded inside the battleship, and more than 200 kilograms of strong explosives inside exploded the entire rear deck.
The most important thing is that the violent explosion ignited the oil tank inside the battleship, and hundreds of tons of heavy oil contained in it were ignited, which immediately caused the entire battleship to burn, and the fierce high temperature even caused the battleship to
The steel plates have melted!
Soon, heavy oil flowing everywhere led the fire to New Jersey. The entire battleship became a burning fireball. The fire caused hundreds of 381mm shells in the ammunition depot to explode, and in an instant
Blasted this huge battleship into shattering. None of the thousands of American naval officers and soldiers on the battleship survived. When the battleship exploded violently, everyone's eyes were focused on this battleship, and no one was allowed to do so.
Knowing what happened, how could it cause such a big explosion. But, no matter what, the battleship of New Jersey is completely finished!
Among the six Pennsylvania-class battleships of the US Navy, four of them have been sunk, and one of them has been withdrawn from the battle due to severe damage.
Only the USS Massachusetts battleship was intact. However, in the previous attack, the USS Massachusetts battleship had better luck and was hit by several Ospreys, torpedo attack aircraft and several fish eagles, diving.
The bomber siege was unscathed. But this time, the USS Battleship, the Massachusetts, was not so lucky!
This time, the siege of the USS Battleship Osprey, the Osprey, the torpedo attack aircraft, and the Fish Eagle, the dive bomber also had two squads, a total of 16. Although the air defense firepower on the USS Battleship was fiercely counterattacked.
But it still cannot stop the attack of the Chinese Navy's carrier-based aircraft! Although the USS Massachusetts counterattack shot down two Ospreys, torpedo attack aircraft and a fish eagle, dive bomber. But it was also hit by torpedoes and aviation bombs.
Zhong. I have to say that compared with other battleships of the same level, the USS Massachusetts battleship has better luck. Even if it is hit by torpedoes and aviation bombs, it only caused the USS Massachusetts battleship to be severely damaged, although the ship is in a ship.
It has been tilted by twenty degrees, its power has dropped sharply, and its speed has dropped to only 8 knots, but there is no danger of sinking, it is just that it has lost all its combat power!
'The final outcome of the USS Massachusetts battleship was also sunk to the bottom of the sea! But from now on, although it was severely damaged, compared with the other battleships of the Pennsylvania-class battleships that were sunk, the USS Massachusetts is undoubtedly much luckier. Of course,
, After the USS Massachusetts battleship was severely damaged, all six Pennsylvania-class battleships of the US Navy were finished!
In addition to these Pennsylvania-class battleships, the US Navy's Nevada-class battleships are also targeted by key besieges. The USS Nevada battleships were subjected to 6 Ospreys, torpedo attack aircraft and 6 Fish Eagles, dive bombers.
Siege, during the first wave of battle, the battleship Nevada received a slight trauma.
This time, it was besieged by more than a dozen carrier-based aircraft, and the situation was even more dangerous!
In the end, the Nevada battleship was hit by a torpedo and two aviation bombs. Although it did not sink, it also lost all its power, floating on the sea like a dead fish, losing its combat power!
The "Nevada-class battleship, Kentucky, was also besieged, and
'Kentucky, the battleship was very lucky. Although only two aviation bombs hit him, one aviation bomb penetrated the armor of the bridge and killed several officers, including the captain! Another
A bomb penetrated the armor on the front deck and destroyed the ammunition depot. Hundreds of 343mm shells in the ammunition depot exploded, and the violent explosion directly blew the head of the Kentucky battleship to pieces.
Even the keel was blown off! The sea water poured into the Kentucky battleship, causing the first half of the battleship to sank into the sea quickly, and finally it sank in a posture of head downward and tail upward.
After entering the sea, nearly a thousand American naval officers and soldiers on the warship, except for a few people who escaped, the rest of the people sank into the sea!
The other two "Nevada-class battleships," Illinois, and "Wisconsin," did not escape. Both battleships were severely damaged during the siege of the Chinese Navy's carrier-based aircraft. Among them," Illinois,
The battleship lost all its power and could not continue sailing. And the battleship of Wisconsin also dropped to 8 knots, and the hull was seriously infiltrated, and it was tilted, and it was possible to overturn at any time. Both battleships had already
Losing all combat power!
It was not until this time that the second wave of carrier-based aircraft of the Chinese Navy completed the attack, and hundreds of fighter jets had returned one after another, leaving behind a desperate US fleet. During the second wave of attack, the US Navy lost all
The Pennsylvania-class, battleships and Nevada-class, battleships. Among them, half were sunk, and the other half were severely damaged and lost their combat effectiveness! This undoubtedly gave the US Navy a fatal blow! The US Navy was with the Chinese Navy this time
In the decisive battle, the Pennsylvania-class battleships and Nevada-class battleships are relied on. Only these two battleships have the strength to compete with the Chinese Navy's Tang-class, battleships and Han-class battleships. But now, this
Both battleships were lost. The US Navy had no choice but to deal with the Chinese Navy's Tang-class, battleships and Han-class, battleships. Even if the Chinese planes no longer launched attacks, the US Navy would not win.
Hope!
William.
Admiral Benson stood in the bridge of the battleship Ohio, with a pale face and a little scary, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness. He was originally a strong man, otherwise he would not have had the chance to become the U.S. Navy East Coast Fleet
The commander of the United States Navy has suffered a fatal blow! The U.S. Navy's East Coast Fleet has a total of 40 main battleships, and now it has lost 12 battleships and 4 battlecruisers, although
There are 26 main battleships left, and there are only 15 main battleships of the Chinese Navy's Expeditionary Fleet. But the US Navy has no chance to win! The Chinese Navy's Tang-class, battleship and Han-class, battleships can easily defeat the United States
The old battleships of the Navy were torn to pieces. The only two U.S. Navy can pose a threat to the Chinese Navy's Tang-class, battleships and Han-class battleships.
The New York class, the battleship and the three Wyoming class, the battleships. But William.
Admiral Benson has no confidence at this moment!
Watching the battleships that caught fire and kept sinking, William.
Admiral Benson felt cold in his heart, even colder than the current Atlantic Ocean! He knew that this time the US Navy, and even the entire United States, had no chance to turn the defeat!
