Chapter 198 Hedgehog-Like Battleship
One by one, 7.92mm bullets hit the back of the SB-2 bomber, from back to front, all the way to the pilot cabin!
As a solidly constructed bomber, it is armored in key places, but it can't do anything about bullets coming from directly above!
In the middle of the bomber's fuselage, flames suddenly erupted, getting bigger and bigger, and when the machine gun bullet hit the front, the pilot inside fell down and lay on the steering wheel.
The plane turned into a dive.
Both were excited to watch the SB-2 bomber crash into the sea, an action that could go down in naval history! Using their carrier-based seaplanes, they successfully shot down a bomber!
Next, the second frame!
"Looks like, we don't have any more." After continuing to fly forward for a while, Ludwig had to give up. When he was entangled with the bomber here, the other bombers had already flown to his own Deutschland. up!
Ludwig didn't want to be accidentally injured by the anti-aircraft guns of the Deutschland, because he knew how ferocious the anti-aircraft fire on it was!
Five SB-2 bombers flew over the Deutsches!
After receiving the warning of the seaplane, Lukins immediately ordered to speed up, and now, the Deutschland, is already driving at full speed to the outside of the port, and the direction he is driving is exactly the same as the direction the bomber came!
Just like a few years ago, only then, it was five He51s attacking, and this time, five SB-2 bombers!
"105mm anti-aircraft guns, fire immediately!" Lukins ordered.
He remembered how big the shock was last time, so when the last battle was over, the Deutschland almost changed the anti-aircraft firepower!
The original is three 88mm anti-aircraft guns, now, these anti-aircraft guns have been replaced by double-mounted 105mm anti-aircraft guns, the firepower density has doubled!
Because of the limited space in the bow, these anti-aircraft guns are still arranged on both sides of the stern and in the middle, so the forward vision is limited, which is why he chooses to sail east. Welcome, is the 105mm anti-aircraft gun!
At the same time, the original 37mm hand-pulled machine and 20mm anti-aircraft gun were all changed into Bofors 40mm anti-aircraft gun! Sixteen such antiaircraft guns were densely deployed throughout the ship!
At this time, the setting sun was even more red, not so dazzling, just in time to see the SB-2 bombers flying from the west!
105mm anti-aircraft gun, fire!
"Boom, boom, boom!" In an instant, black smoke emerged from the muzzle of the anti-aircraft gun, and in the black smoke, projectiles flew out at a speed of up to 900 meters per second!
Just now, they have been in a state of waiting to be stimulated, and they have already done their best. Now, when they receive the order, they will fire immediately!
Fire!
In the air, the SB-2 bombers entered the final bombing route, and in order to hit each other accurately, they kept flying smoothly.
Bear the brunt, two bombers, hit by 105mm shells!
When the BF109 intercepted the Sb-2 bomber, it fired dozens of bullets and turned the back of the bomber into a hornet's nest. As a result, the aircraft could still fly!
This shows the strong survivability of this bomber, and its ability to resist strikes is very strong.
That is also divided into opponents.
Now, what is the result of hitting this bomber with a 105mm shell?
A shell hit the engine on the left side of the bomber. In a violent explosion, the engine on the left side, with half of the wing, was knocked off. The plane rolled and fell toward the sea!
Another bomber, even more unlucky, was hit directly on the fuselage! As a result, the bomber was directly hit and exploded in the air! The entire plane, turned into pieces of debris, scattered down.
Although it is said that they are the planes of the Republican Army, most of these planes from the Soviet Union are piloted by Soviet pilots.
The Soviets inside were bombed to pieces!
In the sky, the blooming fireball made everyone extremely excited, it was like shooting a target!
However, their results were limited to only two. The remaining three SB-2 bombers were still tenaciously carrying out their missions. They swooped down from the sky and wanted to drop bombs on the Deutsches!
"40mm anti-aircraft gun, fire immediately!"
The 40mm Bofors anti-aircraft guns were firing loudly. Except for the limited field of view of the first few gun positions, they could not attack, and the remaining gun positions were firing violently towards the sky!
The high-explosive tracer rounds drew an arc in the sky and flew forward!
Compared with the previous tragic hand-pulled machine, this kind of anti-aircraft gun can also shoot at a rate of 80 rounds per minute in actual combat, and a shell will fly out of the barrel almost every second!
The position of the anti-aircraft artillery was constantly vibrating, the gunner stepped on the trigger, shook the handwheel, kept tracking, and fired!
Fire!
A 40mm anti-aircraft gun penetrated the nose of an SB-2 bomber. The navigator in front was instantly killed, and the nose was blurred. Then, the second shell hit the cabin above.
The bomber had entered an unmanned state. According to the route just now, it was still diving. As a result, the third and fourth anti-aircraft artillery shells flew in and exploded it in the air!
The fierce fire lasted for a minute.
The sky is clean, and the smell of gunpowder smoke is everywhere. For the recruits, they are still immersed in the battle just now.
The anti-aircraft artillery opened fire in the air, and shells were flying everywhere. This battleship of our side was like a hedgehog, covered in thorns, and it was firing everywhere!
Deutsches, powerful anti-aircraft firepower, let it be dangerous to touch it!
The battle is over so soon, and our side has won a complete victory!
Standing on the bridge, looking at the afterglow of the setting sun, Luckins was very emotional.
Of course he didn't know that the same attack happened on the Deutschland in history. Unfortunately, the hand-drawn anti-aircraft guns at that time could not be protected at all.
One bomb hit the top of the third 150mm naval gun shield on the starboard side, causing the aviation gasoline to catch fire and igniting the nearby He-60 seaplane; the other bomb penetrated the uppermost deck and the middle. The deck exploded directly between the 94th rib and the 145th rib, killing all the sailors waiting to eat in the nearby restaurant.
At that time, the Deutschland almost sank. It was a battleship named after Germany. If it sank, the morale would be affected too much. As a result, Germany was forced to change the name of the battleship.
But now, with new anti-aircraft firepower, facing a few backward bombers, it was a complete victory. The opponent didn't even have a chance to drop bombs, so he was killed!
This is just the beginning!
