.The second and third special mixed fleet. In terms of the number of ships, it is more shocking than the third special mixed fleet. It is a mixed landing fleet composed of Australian warships and a US landing force. Among the fleet, there are three aircraft carriers and five light aircraft carriers. The battleships Washington, Massachusetts, South Dakota, Alabama, Mississippi, Maryland, West Virginia, and three heavy cruisers. Seven light cruisers. Seven light cruisers; and thirty-one destroyers. Not only that, the fleet also includes more than a hundred ships carrying the US Armored Mechanized Division, the 3rd Marine Division and other landing forces transporting ships and large and small landing crafts. The total number of ships with some weight alone exceeds one hundred and eighty.

It can be said that the task of the Third Special Mixed Fleet is to land on the coast west of Port Augusta, which makes it difficult for the Chinese team to take care of the arduous task of being attacked from both ends. Faced with the hungry wolves who were wandering behind the start of the road, Xiong Puliang could only sleep peacefully by sending them all to the sea to feed the sharks.

Therefore, the raid on the Third Special Mixed Fleet became the first major in the Battle of Port Augusta.

The shrill whistle sounded at various airports, and various attack aircraft scattered on various airports. The bombers became the protagonists of this naval battle. More than 500 aircraft gathered from various war zones and coastal garrisons began to reveal their hideous faces.

Fifty-four H-6 bombers that were modified to throw air-ship missiles were extremely eye-catching in this battle. Whether it was a ship attack or a later land bombing, this kind of bomber became the nightmare of the other party. There was just a distraction, since many aircraft were drawn from various war zones and defense zones in China for temporary reinforcements, the names and numbers of the brigades were easy to say. These are large numbers that would not be repeated. For example, the Third Battalion of the 8th Division of the Air Force and the Sixth Regiment of the Bombing Regiment. However, the number of the squad appeared.

In case of error, the Eighth Division has the second team of the Third Battalion, Fourth Squadron, and the Seventh Division also has the second team of the Third Battalion, Fourth Squadron, and two units with the same number will easily cause order errors. Those code names also have duplicate names, such as the arson squad, which is more famous within the Air Force. If you can't do the task of arson culprit, you are embarrassed to use this name, but if you like to name a squad with raptors in the air, you will easily crash. The Falcon Squad is simply as numerous as a cow.

If you continue to use the previous number code, it is easy to cause command errors. If you temporarily change the number or code, you are worried that each team will not be used to using the previous number, which will lead to no response or judgment errors. Such mistakes cannot be made. Therefore, when you see that the number of fifty-four happens to be a deck of playing cards. The logistics officer who is trying to give temporary numbers to the planes and other combat units that are temporarily coming to reinforce are a poker enthusiast, so he simply uses fifty-four cards as the code for each attack team. Each reorganized team is assigned several playing cards, and the pilot of each aircraft will paste the playing cards that his team's number deals with to the position where the photo is used to post on the driving panel.

, aren't you used to the new number and are afraid of forgetting? The playing card number you can see at any time reminds you that it is a red peach, and the team will have a square 6 team. And if the information is leaked, you can quickly change it in wartime. Today you can be the eighth of spades, and tomorrow the code will be changed to Mahua Nine. And you can also make a big classification in terms of styles. Why not do it? Although you are not suitable for the new number code, the styles that can be seen in the cockpit and even appear in your eyes can really make the pilots from all over the world immediately arrive at their position early. In addition, many teams also come to help temporarily. After the battle, you can just take the honors of the team.

At the same time, during this raid, Xiong Puliang sent the jet plane, and no longer hid it at this time. He would not kill this big trouble that threatened his back at any time, and kept the jet plane to play on the ground.

Xiong Puliang even used the three aerial turret support aircraft in the Military Region. Although this aircraft was a bit of a death-seeking warship with strong air defense firepower, it was particularly tempting to fight troop transport ships without air defense capabilities, cargo ships and landing crafts. Especially for small landing crafts worth dozens of tons, using torpedoes and bombs to fire ammunition, but this thing is accurate at one shot, and one shot will sink by a few shots, so how fast it will be to save!

More than 500 aircraft used all 54 H6 aircraft in the first wave. The first eight air-ship missiles were shot, which was definitely a man overturned the ship. However, given that the opponent not only had strong air defense capabilities but also had many aircraft carriers, among the first batch of attacking aircraft, in addition to these 54 H6 aircraft, there were more than 30 aircraft of various types responsible for other purposes.

Know, ten thousand

On the third day of the meeting ceremony, at 7 a.m., the third mixed fleet suddenly lost the timed radio contact between the two aircraft in the north direction of the reconnaissance planes that were sent to the Japanese devils. Since we learned that the Chinese also had Suicide weapons similar to the Japanese devils, the US fleet was particularly careful. A large number of reconnaissance planes were sent to reconnaissance, especially in various areas where the other party might appear, and sent reconnaissance planes to reconnaissance. Although the reconnaissance planes are far away from the fleet, the radio signal is weak, there is no reason why the two aircraft lost contact at the same time.

Lieutenant General Thomas Kincaid, the commander of the third special mixed fleet, immediately paid great attention. Although this loss was insignificant to the backup aircraft of the entire fleet, it was a signal. At the same time, the radar of the US fleet discovered a large number of interference sources, which were the large number of aluminum flutes thrown by the first batch of aircraft flying with them. Most of these aircraft were one. Wild boar attack aircraft, they flew everywhere on the northern fan of the entire US fleet, and threw a large amount of aluminum foil used to interfere with the US radar waves at various altitudes, making the radar of the US fleet one after another, and alarms were one after another.

Due to the interference of the radar, Lieutenant General Kinkaid immediately sent six planes to the north for additional reconnaissance and ordered the reconnaissance team to be sure to slow down all targets around. Once something is discovered, immediately protect the contact aircraft in the team so that it has time to send accurate intelligence information back. At the same time, the fleet began to release the fighter group that intercepted the opponent's plane to guard the fleet. Once the Chinese attack aircraft group was discovered, it was immediately intercepted. It was necessary to intercept the Chinese "suicide" outside the range.

Lieutenant General Kincaid's concern was Ergu. The US reconnaissance plane that was killed was followed by the jet fighter in the group guided by the early warning aircraft behind the first wave of attack aircraft to clean up. When the pilots of the American reconnaissance plane parachuted in the sky, a formation of more than 170 aircraft flew over their heads, they had to pray to God to let the fleet tell the fleet through their prayers that the Chinese were coming!!

The six reconnaissance aircraft formations did comply with the orders and requirements of Lieutenant General Kincaid. When facing the strange fighter jets rushing towards them at high speed, the six aircraft were not afraid. Although they were wondering how this propeller-free aircraft flew in the sky, they also knew that their speed was dead when fighting against the opponent who could easily accelerate to the speed they could not imagine, they still tried their best to cover the contact aircraft in the team, so that they had enough time to send pre-hurt signals to the fleet.

Lieutenant General Kincaid, who received the warning signal, had no time to pray in silence for these brave American soldiers. He had clearly told the fleet from the short message: the high-speed aircraft was rushing towards the fleet!!

Although it did not indicate how fast the other party was, nor did it provide the quantity accurately. Perhaps it was just that the reconnaissance aircraft was surprised by the high speed of the Chinese jet aircraft, but Lieutenant General Kincaid understood it as the meaning of the Japanese Sakura Suicide. There were misinterpretations on both sides of the literal and understanding, but the final effect was achieved,

, Ganmeng

The fleet that received the warning message immediately released the last intercepting fighter jet. Their mission was to immediately intercept the "suicide" of the Chinese Air Force. It was only at this time that the first batch of eighteen fighters who came to intercept started fighting with the Chinese pioneer jet fighter jets in the sky.

It is said that aircraft carrier fleets are so awesome when attacking the opponent. However, aircraft carriers are not invincible. You can hit people from all directions at sea. They can also hit you from all directions. The wide range of attacks on aircraft carriers on the vast ocean is a 360-degree circle, which means that the aircraft carrier and the entire fleet will be subject to possible attacks in all directions. Although the possibility of the rear of their fleet is smaller, things are not absolute. For this reason, the fleet must be vigilant about any enemy that appears in all directions at all times. In this way, the number of aircraft used for reconnaissance on aircraft carriers needs to be very good to adjust. If you fly out, you will increase the consumption and bring non-combat fatigue to the pilots. If you fly out, you will increase the gap in reconnaissance and defense. The two are like difficult to reconcile and adjust according to different times and different tasks.

Moreover, the dispatch of aircraft is also because the aircraft's different takeoff times, ranges of aircraft types, and air stagnation time have already had their final number of escort aircraft, and the aircraft will not be sent out at once. Moreover, the carrier-based aircraft are also divided into attack aircraft and fighter aircraft. The same is true for today's reconnaissance and intercepting aircraft. The number of intercepting fighters who rushed to the front was not large, only eighteen, and these eighteen aircraft immediately fought with twenty-four fighters.

Although there is no absolute advantage in quantity, the air combat advantage of jet aircraft and propeller aircraft will quickly explain the results of air combat.

When US pilots strangled with Japanese aircraft, they liked to use their own high speed to escape the other party's pursuit. They can also easily catch up with the other party with their speed. It's a pity. The advantage of spiral aircraft in combat against Japanese aircraft is ineffective against Chinese fighters, especially against jets. Jets that can easily exceed the maximum speed of propeller aircraft 800 kilometers often open more throttle valves when bitten, and the plane can quickly run out of the range of US aircraft, leaving only the obscured American pilots with a mouth wide open to eat exhaust.

However, these eighteen fighter jets were not picked up for free by China. It would take some time to clean them up, and this little time was enough to send the message to the interceptor group behind and on both sides. In this way, the US fleet had more detailed information and information to judge the intention and time of the China Team.

Lieutenant General Kincaid, who received the news, immediately dispatched more than half of the entire fleet's carrier-based interceptors to the north. However, according to current intelligence information, the Chinese "suicide. Hens" have not been discovered. The Chinese fighter jets are strange and advanced. It is just surprising, but not shocking. For a fleet, fighter jets have limited attack capabilities to the fleet. What really threatens the fleet are those torpedo planes and dive bombers. Among them, the power and the most terrifying thing are those "suicide" aircraft. For this reason, before the Chinese suicide hen was discovered, it is impossible to determine that the main direction of the Chinese attack was from there. Only when the suicide hens were discovered, can Admiral Kincaid devote all the fighter interceptor forces to the

At 8:48 am, a large number of white highlights appeared in several directions on the US radar again. This interference was a bit bored for the US radar soldiers in this more than an hour. Every time such a large area appeared in the previous period, the planes sent to investigate were mostly returned without any results. This is because the wild boar attack aircraft responsible for interfering with the opponent's radar mostly flew at low altitudes that the opponent's radar could not see. When the early warning aircraft followed behind saw the gradually decrease in the reflection source on the radar screen, it would order a certain interference team to pull up and throw a large amount of interference aluminum foil when it exposed its real formation. Anyway, for the more than six tons of terrifying plug-ins of the wild boar attack aircraft, the few interference aluminum foil bombs thrown by an aircraft at a time are enough to form a terrifying interference source.

More than 30 wild boar attack aircraft threw aluminum foil from time to time, forming a terrifying and huge source of interference in the north of the US fleet. However, doing so also interferes with the early warning of the air early warning aircraft. After all, the aluminum foil interferes with the opponent's radar waves, but it also interferes with the radar of its own. But it doesn't matter. Although the wild boar attack aircraft does not escort the fighter aircraft, it can withstand the opponent's strike with its rough skin and thick flesh. The top speed of the two engines outside the fuselage has exceeded 700 kilometers per hour. If the opponent finds it, we will run away. You must really catch up with it based on speed, "Damn!! If you are really forced to play air combat with you!! The pilot of the attack aircraft has also been scraped and trained by air combat! Look at the consequences of the rapid-fire cannon with tungsten core armor-piercing shells hitting your aircraft!!

The US radar soldiers who were frequently disturbed by a large amount of pot foil have now lost too much patience. They cannot accurately judge where the truth is, and where it is."

Frequent alarm sounds made the commanders in the fleet nervous now, but every alarm made people disappointed. Although the radar performed poorly today, no one blamed them. After all, radar is still a freshly released product, with unstable working performance. There are often misjudgments and are easily disturbed. But after all, the range of early warning can greatly increase. Fortunately, a large number of intercepting fighters have passed, which group of suicide hens in China is? Soon, an answer will be answered."

However, the large number of reflection sources flashed this time at 8:48 were not fake. The fifty-four bombers and escort fighters that entered the range of air-ship missiles and pulled up the anti-ship missiles from low altitude, especially the 108 anti-ship missiles that gradually lowered the height of the anti-ship missiles on the US radar.

The fighter jets intercepted by the US military ultimately failed to see the Chinese "suicide" hen. After the release of the anti-ship missiles, fifty-four H6s turned around and pulled up without saying a word. Although this will be exposed to the range of radar surveillance after the last batch of interfering aluminum flutes drifted, there are only two intentions to do so. The first is: the reconnaissance aircraft that the opponent surrounds the bomber group from the back, and the escort fighter jets have other tasks. Therefore,

It is safest to not provide return bombers with longer and longer protection, directly rising to a height that the opponent cannot reach, so that the opponent can't return. The second is that the escort fighter jets must also try to kill as much as possible outside the fleet. The subsequent waves of attacks include torpedo aircraft and dive bombers. The appearance of these aircraft such as dive bombers can kill as much as possible in the opponent's sky so that these attacking aircraft groups can attack the US fleet with peace of mind.

Although the US military did not cause any substantial attack damage to these hens by the H-6, many US pilots saw the 108 cigar bodies flying at a low speed with beautiful tail flames at a constant speed."

Compare, ten thousand

In horror, the US fighter jets tried to intercept these cigar "suicide" aircraft, but did the remaining combat opportunities allow them to intercept as they wished? No, the speed of the H-6 that was flying slowly was thrust, and the remaining escorted jet fighters and propeller fighters immediately increased their speed and flew towards the known US interceptor fighter jets, "Boy, hum, you don't have to come to me, I'm here to practice now!!

Soon, the U.S. fighter jet group was strangled with a large number of Chinese fighters. Without the oil bottles needed to be protected, the released fighter pilots tried their best to strangle the U.S. fighter jets, and they tried to kill the U.S. fighter jets as the largest number. Under the advantage of concentrated quantity, the U.S. fighter jets soon had a one-sided situation in air battles where performance was better than themselves and more than themselves.

The 108 beautiful cigar bodies flew at a low altitude at the sea surface, causing a tiny ripple to burst out on the sea surface. After reaching the scheduled voyage, the beautiful cigar bodies suddenly climbed up to 300 meters. The radar on the missile finally searched and determined to lock the target, and immediately went from search, judgment, and finally locked in just three seconds. If it was under test, the instrument monitoring the final guide radar can even hear the search radar signal in the missile Dudou inside the missile turning into a whistle that was rising rapidly, and the autopilot on the anti-ship missile immediately controlled the missile to start accelerating.

What does it feel like to rush towards you with hundreds of anti-ship missiles?

Hehe, that is definitely an unparalleled and shocking feeling!!

Do you still remember the appointment of the British fleet? Hehe, it is the lucky one of the British fleet. Since John experienced the last incident, since his experience is very important to the fleet, he is now doing information exchange on the third special fleet this time as a communication observer sent by the British. The purpose of sending him is not only as part of the information exchange and sharing of information with American allies. It is also a data sharing of information by the Commonwealth Member Australia.

John's experience is really important. Americans were very scared after learning that the Chinese's suicide weapons were flying from sea level. This is different from Japan's divestors from the sky. Influenced by the curve of the earth, the earlier you want to see the suicide weapons flying against the sea, the higher the better. The fat watcher, who had been gradually replaced by radar, was once again sent to the ship's highest fat watchtower to observe. Although this can only take less than ten seconds to do so, ten more seconds may save thousands of lives.

Today, John witnessed a large number of fighter jets in the fleet being sent out in batches early in the morning. Standing at the highest position of the US fleet, John sighed in his heart that his experience of attacks reminded many people, it was still quite difficult to truly change the current rigid naval tactics.

What ship has the highest viewing platform in the fleet? It is either a battleship or an aircraft carrier, but these two ships are the most core and main force protected ships in the fleet. In the entire fleet, the fleet that is escorted by the outer escort alone has been surrounded by three layers inside and three layers! How big is the combat protection of such a huge fleet? The escort ships that can wrap them in front, back and left and right are enough to extend more than a thousand meters. Standing on the highest viewing platform in the center, the observation range of more than a thousand meters is reduced out of thin air, which undoubtedly reduces the observation and early warning time for a few seconds. At the same time, the surrounding escort ships also more or less interfere with their own sight. To John's psychological words, those light patrols and the smoke and heat emitted from the destroyer's smoke are enough to destroy and greatly interfere with the completeness of the scene in John's heart.

However, John also knows that in the context of the increasing number of modern equipment, although traditional viewers still have irreplaceable places for radar and various electronic devices. Although they cannot stand here, planes are constantly flying over the fleet. "Their function is to observe whether there are Chinese suicide weapons on the sea with the naked eye in the air. Mastering the fact that Chinese suicide weapons are flying close to the sea, there is still a way to better warning if they use their brains more.

Seeing that he had no effect, John was about to leave the watchtower, but at this moment, suddenly, the sound of a harsh air defense alarm in the fleet resounded throughout the fleet. John was shocked,

They are here” (to be continued)
