During World War II, during a battle, there would be scenes of a large number of planes fighting, and even hundreds of planes flying in the sky, the scene was extremely spectacular.
However, as the speed of aircraft continues to increase, if there are too many fighters in an airspace, it is quite dangerous. They will collide at any time. Correspondingly, the area controlled by a fighter is also expanding. In the past, only It uses a machine gun, but the effective killing distance is a few hundred meters, but now it is a missile, and the Phoenix directly gives it a killing ability a hundred kilometers away.
Therefore, the air defense problem of the aircraft carrier formation is also very easy to solve.
Before relying on f4, now there is a Tomcat fighter, of course you need to rely on Tomcat.
"We are divided into three dual-aircraft formations, each separated by 120 degrees, responsible for the three directions of the aircraft carrier formation. With the support of the carrier-borne early warning aircraft, it is sufficient to protect the safety of the aircraft carrier and expand the air defense radius to 800 kilometers." With his 111 fighter squadron, Nathan began his research.
Now, there is no such a resounding Aegis system in later generations. The air defense pressure of the aircraft carrier formation is still a bit high, and the combination of the Tomcat fighters and the Phoenix, so that the aircraft carrier formation can be at ease from now on.
Nathan’s words made the pilots present nod their heads. Three two-aircraft formations were enough. At the same time, they flew around the aircraft carrier formation in circles and were able to respond to emergencies at any time.
Today, Major Nathan did another great thing in the air, turning the Soviets around. After returning, Major Nathan became everyone’s hero. Although Nathan was scolded, he had already used practical actions to conquer Everyone.
"Now, assign the patrol list for the first group." Nathan said, and ordered the six crew members.
Although it didn’t take long to arrive on the aircraft carrier, Nathan quickly remembered all the pilots of the 111 Fighter Squadron, not only their names, but also their technical level, their habits, and assigned them. , Every two-aircraft formation is a combination of new and old, and at the same time cooperates with each other tacitly.
Hearing Nathan's assignment, the six crew members immediately nodded happily, but Lieutenant Guth behind Major Nathan couldn't help being anxious.
Why don't you have your own side? Major Nathan has always liked being the first one to appear. How could the arrangements for tomorrow be delayed? This made Lieutenant Gus anxious.
He already likes to partner with Nathan, and he prefers the feeling of attacking with Nathan. Every time, it is thrilling.
"The list of the second group of patrols is assigned below." Nathan continued.
After the second group is allocated, there is still no one's own side. Lieutenant Gus can't help but speak. Are we still flying tomorrow
Finally, when assigning the third group, Nathan said: "The third group, I will lead the team. After the third group is completed, the first group will be connected."
Arrange to the end! Lieutenant Gus's face was sullen, and that's it, until the meeting was over, the flying wing captain was informed for approval, and then he returned to the cabin.
"What's the matter? Gus?" Back in the cabin, Nathan couldn't help but ask when he saw Lieutenant Gus's unhappy appearance.
"Nathan, why don't we fly first tomorrow?" Lieutenant Gus asked. In the meeting room, Nathan is the chief and Gus has to be respectful. Now, in the dormitory, the two are good friends. Gus screamed very directly.
"You kid, do you want to continue molesting the Soviets tomorrow?" Nathan said to Gus.
Hearing this, Gus immediately nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice: "That's not enough, of course I do!"
"Then you just listen to my arrangements, we're flying early and we can't keep up with anything."
I need you to say, I've already done it. Nathan thought to himself that in today's enemy situation report, the Soviet warships will not come until noon tomorrow. What's the use of the 800-kilometer defensive circle? Soviet warships will definitely run under their noses, and today, looking at the urinary nature of the wing captain, 80% of them dare not fight hard.
Since the Vietnam War was defeated, the military has no confidence. On the contrary, it is a shame to let the Soviets show off their might!
Fighters take off and reach the defensive circle. It takes one hour to go back and forth, and then to patrol the air for two hours. The current two groups have completed their missions, and it was noon when it was their turn to take the third group.
At that time, the Soviet warships will also come up, just to show them some colors, let them know how powerful the US naval aviation is!
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Nathan's face.
Since some mysterious power has brought myself here, that is what allowed myself to change everything here.
The trajectory of history has begun to gradually reverse. In the previous life, I read so many traversing novels, and now I am the protagonist, of course I have to come and go.
As for the superior's scolding, I also dealt with it. Tomorrow will definitely be a mechanical failure!
"Really? Great!" Lieutenant Gus regained his spirit from the state of wilting. "Tell me no? How will we do it tomorrow? Or, let's go to the hangar and find the crew to work overtime. a bit?"
Today at a meeting of all-ship pilots, Nathan came up with his idea. His Tomcat fighter plane mounted a bomb, flew over the head of the Soviet warship at a super low altitude, and then threw the bomb down!
Yes, just throw it away!
The Soviets would be frightened, and they would definitely pee their pants. Because of the low altitude, the opponent would have no time to react and would definitely hit them. Even during World War II, the accuracy of the aircraft's dive bombing was incredibly high.
Then, the bomb exploded, boom! The fluttering white powder left conspicuous marks on the Soviet warships. Only then would the Soviets discover that the bomb was filled with white flour!
I wanted to pretend to be white, but there is nothing on the aircraft carrier, only white flour. Give this bag of white flour to the Soviets. The Soviets will piss and urinate. They will definitely turn around in shame.
It can be modified with the most common bomb. The front warhead must be made of thin iron, otherwise the common aerial bomb will become a semi-armor-piercing bomb if it goes down.
When Nathan said this idea, everyone thought it was wonderful, but looking at the high-ranking officials in the fleet, there is no egg in the crotch, and it must not be approved.
Now, what Nathan said, the plan was to continue, and Lieutenant Gus couldn't wait to find the hangar crew to change one.
"No, even if it's changed, we won't be able to hang up. I am definitely already Colonel Petrobori's focus." Nathan said: "If you want to take off with this kind of bomb, there is no door."
"Then what should we do?" Gus asked.
"I have a clever plan." Nathan said, "you will know tomorrow."
The mountain people have their own tricks, and if they say it, they are afraid of leaks. (End of this chapter)
