#1168 Transfer Target (Plus 2)
Under the huge inertia, the nose of the Stuka bomber was flattened. In the raging fire, the inescapable bomb under the belly finally hit the armor of the turret.
Rocket booster bombs, in addition to allowing the bombs to fall on the warships faster, thereby reducing the chance of the warships maneuvering to escape, the more important thing is that the bombs can be accelerated. After all, battleships are all armored. Increasing the probability of penetration, exploding on the surface of the opponent, and detonating inside the opponent, this effect is worlds apart.
Now that it is not off the pylon, the bomb will not be unlocked, and the rocket booster will not be activated, so it is just an ordinary bomb, but this bomb is a bit heavy.
The bomb alone is one ton. If the plane is included, the weight has exceeded five tons. The impact of such a bomb on the battleship is quite strong.
Under the violent impact, finally, the pylon was disengaged, the bomb was ignited according to the program just designed, and the rocket engine at the rear was ignited.
At this time, the surface of the turret has begun to burn, and the high temperature makes the armor of the turret soft. In this case, a one-ton bomb broke a large hole effortlessly and fell from above into the interior of the turret. .
The rocket booster engine at the rear was still firing, and the entire bomb was like a rocket, swooping into it.
"Boom!" With the loud explosion, the turret was blown away, and this explosion is likely to have even more dire consequences. The explosion of the ammunition depot will make it sink in a few minutes, just like the Mara. into the sea.
However, its fate is actually better than that of the Mara.
With the sound of the explosion, the entire battleship vibrated violently, and a large area of cracks appeared in the damaged bottom of the ship in an instant. Countless seawater poured in and poured into each cabin, and also covered the ammunition compartment at the bottom of the turret.
The propellants and warheads in the ammunition compartment were all soaked in sea water, and it was impossible for them to explode at all.
The whole of the October Revolution is still intact. Except for the devastating damage to the turret, it makes people look a little bit horrified. At least there is no difference.
However, it is sinking as a whole.
The first bomb had damaged its bottom, and the shock brought by the second explosion made his bottom irreparable. The sea water was constantly pouring in through the cracks below, and the sinking of the battleship, Just a matter of time.
The number of Stuka bombers was not large, and the two Soviet battleships they focused on had been scrapped. At this time, in the clouds, dive bombers kept jumping out.
These two battleships are the main ships of the Soviet Baltic Fleet. The rest of the warships, with a displacement of no more than 10,000 tons, are just some destroyers and frigates, and there are not too many targets worth attacking.
After turning around the sea, the remaining pilots reluctantly prepared to find their targets and dive, ready to drop their bombs on those small targets.
At this moment, an order came from their earphones: "Attention, change the target, attack the shore defense guns on the shore, and leave the other warships to our fleet."
At this time, in the distance where the sea and the sky meet the water and the sky, a fleet can already be seen arriving, and it is the fleet of one's own.
Leave these small warships to your own warships to bombard. The cost of artillery shells is very low. The more effective targets they want to hit are those cannons on the shore.
Coastal defense artillery is the most effective way to control the coast, especially in waterways like Kronstadt. There are many such coastal defense artillery in the fortification communities on both sides.
The largest of them has four triple-mounted 305mm cannons, just like the naval guns of battleships. Only one turret can be seen from the outside, but each tower fortification is a whole underground city.
Each fort was built with a 3-meter-thick concrete shell, with some fortifications up to seven layers. The interior is fully furnished, including: hospital, shower, kitchen, dining room and living room. Each fort has its own diesel generator and has an autonomous power and water supply system. In addition, special filters and ventilation systems have been installed to ensure that personnel can survive in the fort for 1 week in the presence of toxic contamination.
Such a colony of coastal defense artillery will be a great threat to German warships. Now, instead of attacking those small-bodied warships, the remaining bombers should attack these shore fortifications.
"Understood." After receiving the new order, they immediately became excited again. Every coastal defense artillery position is as spectacular as a battleship, but the difference is that a considerable number of antiaircraft artillery are deployed on these coastal defense artillery positions.
Adding anti-aircraft guns to their warships requires going to a shipyard to refit, which is very expensive, and it is almost linked to the mid-term improvement of the warships.
However, adding anti-aircraft artillery to the shore artillery position is simple, as long as the towed anti-aircraft artillery is pushed over and deployed.
At this time, the coastal defense artillery positions were also prepared.
They were very worried. They watched the German bombers raging in the sky and their battleships were sunk, but they just couldn't help.
Their naval guns couldn't fly, and their anti-aircraft guns were out of range, so they could only watch the German bombers blow up both of their main battleships, all in their eyes. Burning with anger.
Just when they were full of fighting spirit, the Germans actually gave up bombing other warships and came to their coastal defense artillery positions. This is simply looking for a fight.
"Attention, target, 2-7-0 direction, distance eight, height 37, aim." On the anti-aircraft artillery position on the side of the coastal defense artillery, four 37mm M1939 anti-aircraft guns have been deployed. On the observatory in front, the commander of the artillery company shouted loudly. He raised his binoculars and looked at the German bomber that was flying over.
World War II was quite tragic, and the Soviet-German battlefield was even more tragic. On the land of the Soviet Union, Germany lost tens of thousands of aircraft, and countless pilots shed blood in the sky. However, it was not the Soviet Air Force that really caused the Germans to suffer heavy losses. , but Soviet anti-aircraft guns.
The current anti-aircraft gun has shot down more than 15,000 German aircraft, and it is Stuka's number one opponent.
Now, the Soviet air defense weapon is preparing to attack the German bombers.
