Chapter 473

The torpedoes of this era are still quite backward. Even in the history of later generations, the torpedo technology of the United Kingdom and the United States is not developed. For example, the Americans even obtained a German G7E electric torpedo after capturing the German submarine U570. , Westinghouse Electric Company developed the MK18 torpedo on its basis, and it has been equipped since then.

And now Germany is more thorough in the development of torpedoes, far beyond the contemporary British and American.

After the First World War, Britain had been war-weary and shouted for peace. Now, the disadvantages brought by this method have been revealed.

For torpedoes, when attacking a target, an important parameter is the fixed depth.

For torpedo planes, this setting is set before takeoff. After all, the depth-fixing device is on the torpedo body. When the torpedo is already sailing in the water, who can get off the plane? Readjust?

Under normal circumstances, although this method is inconvenient, it does not pose much threat. After all, the torpedo plane already has target data before departure. According to the type of target, the appropriate depth is determined, and these tasks are completed before departure.

However, this is a surface warship.

For surface ships, the draught will not be too deep, so small warships should be set at a depth of one or two meters, and large warships should be set at four or five meters deep, which is almost the same.

Only, of course, this is not suitable for submarines.

For submarines, depth is a fairly broad number that can go from zero to a hundred.

Fortunately, the other party is carrying a lot of personnel, so it is in a floating state. When taking off, they directly set the depth to one meter, which just blows the other party's hull.

For this reason, they also deliberately entered ultra-low altitude flight from a distance, so that when they were visually discovered by the other party, they entered the final stage of the attack. When the submarine was diving, the torpedoes had already whizzed!

This was originally a foolproof attack, but now, even though the opponent is already diving, that is, just descending, the torpedo can still hit.

However, they did not expect that the torpedo hit a person!

Killed one first, and then injured another. The speed of the torpedo had slowed down. At this time, the torpedo got under Bruce.

Bruce watched helplessly as the torpedo charged towards him. He had already avoided it, but the impact caused the torpedo to deviate from its course, causing the torpedo to come towards him!

He couldn't dodge at all. When he saw the terrifying torpedo coming, he subconsciously stretched his legs.

The tumbling water occupied the space directly below him. Originally, he thought he could dodge and let the torpedo leave under his body, but when he saw the rudder at the end of the torpedo, it was partially higher. At that time, he immediately changed his plan, and let his legs clamp the torpedo fiercely.

In an instant, he felt his body leap forward.

Oops, got on the torpedo! (In ancient times, Zhang Guolao rode upside down on a donkey, and today there is Bruce sitting upside down on a torpedo.)

This is one day, Bruce is facing the test of life and death again. The torpedo is still working hard at the original set speed, preparing to accelerate. If the torpedo continues to accelerate, the above Bruce will no longer have the ability to get rid of it. He will Will ride a torpedo, ride the dust.

He had to do this just now, otherwise he would be scratched by the rudder under his crotch, and the things in his crotch might not be able to be preserved.

At this moment, Bruce's brain is extremely calm. This torpedo is a straight torpedo. After it comes down, it can only sail in a straight line. Now, after hitting someone, it has turned an angle. Now, it needs to turn a maximum angle.

Even Bruce hadn't figured out why he wanted to do this, save the German submarine, anyway, now, he did it subconsciously, it was his instinct.

Bruce's head was still on the water, he took a deep breath, and then fell into the water, his hands tightly holding the torpedo body, and then slowly moved forward.

Ten centimeters, twenty centimeters, thirty centimeters... Finally, he reached the tail of the torpedo!

At the rear of the torpedo, he clearly watched the rotation of the propeller behind him. He continued to hold the torpedo body with one hand. If it was stirred to the propeller behind, he would turn into meat in an instant.

At the same time, his other arm stretched out to the rudder at the tail of the torpedo and moved it vigorously.

There was a rushing sound from the tail, and the direction of the torpedo's mine body was constantly changing!

In the water, it was quite difficult to do this action, and he used all his strength.

The torpedo was swerving, completely out of the way of the submarine, and Bruce stuck his head out, took two breaths, and continued on.

He has thought of a good way.

When he got into the water again, there was one more thing in his hand, the key to open the can, he turned the rudder again, and then put the key in!

The rudder can no longer be returned, and this torpedo will be in the sea and keep going in circles!

And Bruce, sitting on the torpedo, can finally rest, he sticks his head out and looks at everything on the sea, while everyone else is swimming hard, he can take a rest, this torpedo, will be around here Been wandering around.

He hadn't thought about using this torpedo to return to land. The power of the torpedo would not last long. He was still with these people, the target was bigger, and the chances of being rescued were higher.

If you look at it from the sea, Bruce's head is moving fast on the sea.

The torpedo plane in the air did not go after throwing the torpedo. When it found this strange sight on the sea, it quickly knew what was going on.

Pushing the lever, the Barracuda torpedo swooped down. This action couldn't be more obvious. He wanted to straf the sea!

This is simply inhumane, but this order was given by a superior.

Sweep the sea surface and kill these people at sea. In this way, that submarine may come up to save people, the other party is very virgin!

In this case, the Barracuda torpedo machine is also loaded with bombs, which can kill the submarine, or directly shoot with machine guns, and can also damage the opponent's submarine!

When the Barracuda torpedo swooped down again, the people on the sea showed expressions of despair. They would never have thought that the British would dare to do this!

This is just so frustrating!

Bruce was also desperate. From the perspective of the plane, they were all slow and no one could escape. Why did the plane in the sky do this?

At this moment, suddenly, the torpedo plane pulled up quickly, turned its course, and flew towards the east!

what happened?

Bruce looked up and saw several fighter planes painted with cross marks coming from the north. They were German naval aviation!

It's so ironic that they came from America, thousands of miles, to help the UK fight Germany, but now, it's the Germans who saved them twice!
