"From this war, the air force's attack efficiency against warships is still too low. The bombs carried by a single dive bomber are limited, and it is difficult to cause fatal damage to the main warships. ∽↗ Top∽↗ Point∽↗ Small∽↗ Say, the bomb drop accuracy of the twin-engine aircraft is very poor. The so-called jumping attack is at most against civilian ships, which is not very threatening to warships with side-side armored belts and strong air defense capabilities. Even with the advancement of technology, the bombs carried by dive bombers reach the level of 800kg. Or after a twin-engine bomber that can dive at an angle of 60 degrees, the attack power of the warships is still insufficient. Because with the advancement of radar technology, it has become a reality to use radar to guide artillery to attack aircraft. If the radio fuse that the General Logistics Department has successfully established a project, then the air defense efficiency will increase greatly."

"In addition to aircraft performance, dive bombers have very high requirements for crews. In the future war, the consumption speed of crews will definitely be very fast, and the quality of pilots trained during war is obviously not comparable to pilots who have been trained for a long time before the war. Moreover, whether it is high-angle dive bombing or ground-air horizontal bombing, it is too dangerous for pilots. A crew that loses about 20% of a battle is definitely not an exaggeration. Maybe it won't take long to fight. The pilots we trained over several years will lose all in the battle. Even if fighters provide firepower suppression, the effect will not be very good, because the newly built warships of various countries are equipped with semi-enclosed cannons, and their armor protection can withstand the attack of 20mm machine guns."

"Of course, the biggest problem is that the bomber with the most expensive and the largest and most long range cannot be invested in sea attacks. You should know that the range and bomb load of the aircraft are a game of addition and subtraction. Although the fighter jets we designed in the future can have more than 1.5 tons of bomb load, under this load, the range of this aircraft can be described as tragedy. It can only be used for ground support, but not for naval combat. This has to be said to be a very regrettable thing." Su Mo, who returned from the European battlefield, found an opportunity like Xu Jie was very bitter.

"Okay. I know, the research and development of relevant guidance weapons and equipment has begun. First, we will focus on attacking the sea and ground. Then we will focus on air and ground-space. The former is easier and the demand is more urgent. As for the latter? The technology is too difficult and practical. In the future, our four-engine bombers will have strong attacking the sea. Don't worry." Xu Jie replied confidently. In this plane, China has the technical support of the United States and Britain and the ideological support of time travelers. If it cannot surpass Germany's guided weapons, it would be too unreasonable!

Historically, if you use ordinary bombs to attack warships, the best effect is a single-engine aircraft. The advantage is that it can dive at a high angle to ensure the penetration and accuracy of the bomb. As for the twin-engine aircraft? Except for the German ju88 that can ensure dive bombing at 65 degrees, Xu Jie really doesn't remember which other aircraft can guarantee such a bomb drop angle. (Mosquito should be possible, but the author did not find the exact information.) But the performance that can be achieved in theory may not be possible in the hands of different pilots. The battleship Nelson was once hit by a 1,000kg armor-piercing bomb thrown by a ju88. As a result, it was supposed to penetrate the horizontal armor of the Nelson, but it was bounced away. So although there were a lot of bombers in the two battles in history, there were only a few that could have the ability to attack ships.

The accuracy of a single-engine aircraft is available, but the direct contradiction between fuel capacity, flight performance and ammunition load often makes the aircraft unable to use the data on paper. In addition to the last piston propeller attack aircraft AD series that came out after the end of World War II, the largest single-engine aircraft has a bomb load of less than 2 tons in history. However, if it really flies with such a large bomb load, even if there is a r2800 engine with a level of boot, it is still not enough. For example, the F4u4 aircraft, which is known as the strongest carrier-based aircraft in history, in relevant documents of the United States, the maximum bomb load of this aircraft can reach 2 Xiao Tim rockets (caliber 11.75 inches. It is nearly 300mm, and the bullet weight is 581kg) and 8 5-inch high-speed rockets (mass 63.5kg). If you calculate carefully, the bomb load capacity reaches 1670kg, which is a terrifying amount!

But this is because the data is good, and in fact there are few people who carry it like this. Because under this load, don’t talk about how far the takeoff distance is. (Anyway, the US has catapults, so it can be used up.) But it’s not up to date with a combat range of only 360 nautical miles! Moreover, this range is still achieved under a low-speed cruise of more than 300 kilometers! Unless it supports landing on the beachhead, it will not happen in normal naval and naval combat. Such loading situations will not occur at all. Moreover, the Pirate 4’s fuel capacity is not small, and the 1,400 liters of internal oil cannot be compared with aircraft like p51. However, it is much stronger than fw190, bf109 and fire spitting.

Another problem with a single-engine aircraft is that there are fewer heavy-load mounts. Generally, there are only one mount that can carry more than 500kg bombs. At most, there are only one heavy-load mounts that can reach the 800kg level. Of course, if you play the limit, you may also break through. But that is an exception, so you basically don't consider it. Look at the situation where almost the world is armored aircraft carriers, the power of 500kg armor-piercing bombs is not enough. This time, the opponents facing China are not Essexes in history, but are all warships of the protection level similar to the British Revenge or Japan's Dafeng.

Before the great ad1 comes out, a single-shot attack aircraft is loaded with an 800kg bomb and two small secondary fuel tanks and is almost at its limit. And under heavy loads, its range and speed will be very slow, even if you are a fighter's physique, it is not good! The premise of throwing a bomb onto the other party's head is that you can pass by alive. Even if a powerful fighter like Pirate 4 is hung with an 800kg bomb and secondary fuel tank and wants to pass through a fighter of the level of FW190a4 after being attacked, it will be quite difficult. If the escort is not in place, it will either be shot down or you throw the bomb away. Anyway, don't throw the bomb over the other party's head.

Therefore, if you want to use a large bomb, it is better to use a twin or even four-shot bomb. Historically, bombers like the Ju88 and Do217 can carry at least 2 Fritz X bombs weighing 1570kg (that is the thing that sank the Romans.) Heavy bombers like the He177 can carry 3 to 4 HS293 anti-ship missiles. The author saw in a book that hangs one on the lower side of the wing. Then the mounting method of hangs two on the lower side of the fuselage, but generally speaking, 3 is more practical.

) As for the power? Needless to say, the power of the Fritz X bomb is, its warhead is a PC1400 half-armor-piercing bomb (PC1400) thrown from about 3,000 meters of air, directly piercing the Roman number layer of about 200mm horizontal armor. This almost means that it can destroy all warships. The warhead of the HS293 is smaller, and it was used at the beginning of 500kg bombs, but later it can also be upgraded to 800kg level. It may be more difficult to fight battleships, but it is not a dream to blow up an aircraft carrier if it is broken!

Moreover, the biggest advantage of using this guided weapon is that it can be fired outside the opponent's defense zone. Whether it is the Fritz x-guided bomb or the HS293 missile, it can almost guarantee that the carrier aircraft will attack outside the effective range of the 40mm Bofors anti-aircraft gun. Even if the Fritz x-type bomb is thrown at a relatively close range, the throwing distance is about 8km. With the inclined distance, it is very difficult for the United States to hit the target in history. After all, this distance is a bit far and the target is a bit high!

Thinking of a bunch of heavy bombers with various guided bombs and anti-ship missiles to attack a fleet, Xu Jie was a little excited. This was something that the Russians wanted to do during the Cold War. Of course, in fact, in history, the efficiency of those guided weapons in the second battle was not very high. Not to mention that the Germans had poor electronic technology. After the first wave of capturing some people, the United States and the British quickly developed electronic countermeasures equipment that greatly interfered with the accuracy of German guided weapons. Even if there was no interference, the Germans' own missiles and guidance systems had many problems and had many restrictions on use, such as the improved version of the HS293 missile equipped with a TV camera. The idea was very good, and the physical objects were also released, but in the end, it was abandoned because of immature technology.

If China wants to use such weapons, the Germans will definitely do it, and it will not be more advanced than in history. So now a question arises. How can China defend against such weapons? Xu Jie didn't think of this problem, but in the end he found that there is really no other good method besides using electronic interference and fighter interception. The anti-aircraft gun cannot reach the carrier aircraft, and it is not very large to try to use missiles with very fast speeds. As for air defense missiles and long-range air defense, this is better to wash and sleep. Although it is too difficult to do this.

Germany also built a surface-to-air missile launch device called Gentian grass in history, but this thing has not been put into actual combat after all, and its size and weight are too large. This kind of missile has a launch weight of 1,800kg, a wingspan of 4 meters, a length of 2.4 meters, and a radius of 0.88 meters, and a bomb diameter of 0.88 meters. As for whether it can be developed after combining the technology of the United States and Britain, Xu Jie does not have much hope. After all, in history, the Brass Knight, the first American air defense missile, had just been tested. This technology is too difficult.
