Chapter 121 The head of state arrives at the aircraft carrier training base
During World War II, the German Navy not only used a large number of submarine troops, but also had a small number of battleships, small warships, cruisers, and destroyers.
Of course, there are also the "Earl Zeppelin" aircraft carrier and carrier-based aircraft.
The early German carrier-based aircraft included Ar195 carrier-based aircraft, Fi167 carrier-based aircraft, and Ar198 carrier-based aircraft.
In addition, the German army also intends to equip the "Earl Zeppelin" aircraft carrier with three models of carrier-based aircraft: "Fi167 reconnaissance/cascade launcher/torpedo bomber, and Bf109T fighter and Ju87C dive bomber."
There are also Fokker Wolf FWP250-T jet carrier-based fighter jets, P1078A and other carrier-based jets.
However, these German carrier-based aircraft, whether it is Hitler or Chen Yanlong, who is now traveling through Hitler, are good. They have no intention of making these aircraft again because they do not have much interest or trust in these German carrier-based aircraft.
However, the only difference is that Chen Yanlong attaches great importance to the construction of aircraft carriers and aircraft carrier fleets, and of course, he also pursues the research and development of powerful performance ship-based carriers.
So he ordered Denitz to repair the Earl Zeppelin aircraft carrier and prepare to use it when building his own aircraft carrier fleet.
He also placed some of the American carrier-based aircraft he exchanged for on the "Earl Zeppelin" aircraft carrier that was being restored. Of course, this order was issued more than a week ago by Chen Yanlong.
The remaining carrier-based aircraft were placed on the other two Midway aircraft carriers. The two aircraft carriers were exchanged using his magical smartphone shopping mall exchange system.
However, the exchange time of these two aircraft carriers was not the same time. One was exchanged before the Battle of Panteleria, and the other was exchanged in the past few days.
When Denitz received the aircraft carrier, he was shocked again, the scattered wind was so messy that it was hard to describe it in words.
Especially this time, there are still 300 F4U "Piracy" fighters and 300 F6F Hellcat fighters. Although their color is black and different from the US military, their speed and performance are still faster than the carrier-based aircraft used by the US military today, and better!
Although Denitz knew that a Midway aircraft carrier only needed 80-145 carrier-based aircraft, it was enough, and more carrier-based aircraft than this number could not be installed.
So there are those extra carrier-based aircraft, which Chen Yanlong asked Denitz to use as reserve service, or when there were new aircraft carriers for him, he would equip the new aircraft carriers.
However, for Chen Yanlong, what he had even more headaches was not just how to train pilots of the carrier-based aircraft fleet, aircraft carrier seamen, and aircraft carrier commanders.
Because he knew that in addition to aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft, he also needed supporting ships, carrier-based aircraft research and development, carrier-based aircraft take-off and landing technology, training facilities, base construction, command and control systems, etc.
So what he has a headache now is how to form a well-trained aircraft carrier group and excellent commanders.
The German Admiralty Department is definitely a piece of paper and there is no talent in this regard.
So when Chen Yanlong gave Dunitz aircraft carrier and carrier-based aircraft, he also emphasized to Dunitz very seriously that the other party must let the pilots conduct carrier-based aircraft catapult takeoff training.
In later generations, many people are well-known that most of the training of carrier-based pilots starts from the land simulation deck.
Then wait until the carrier-based pilots are proficient in their skill, they can go to the deck of the real aircraft carrier to practice.
Because only when inexperienced pilots have onshore simulation training can they train excellent carrier-based pilots on real aircraft carriers.
Moreover, an aircraft carrier can only have real combat strength after it has a large number of excellent carrier-based aircraft pilots. Of course, if it can be equipped with the world's most advanced aircraft carrier and carrier-based aircraft, it will be even more powerful and invincible.
So Chen Yanlong ordered Denitz to establish a comprehensive land flight training base for aircraft carrier-based aircraft near the Oder River.
The so-called secret carrier-based aircraft training base of Denitz is to establish the Odd River, an anchorage at the mouth of the Nice River, and was also ordered by Denitz to disguise it as a small island.
These two rivers are located on the border between Germany and Poland, and are also places with relatively high disputes in Germany and Poland in later generations.
In addition to building conventional facilities such as tarmac, taxiway, runway, hangar that simulates the aircraft carrier deck, the base also has a completely simulated aircraft carrier deck, which consists of equipment facilities such as takeoff ski jump deck, interception cable system, optical and radio portal guidance system.
In addition, the airport has a tower that simulates the aircraft carrier command tower, equipped with guidance radar, and the same flight command system as the ship.
This aircraft carrier training base was built by Chen Yanlong imitated the "Nitka" built by the Soviet Union.
Half a day later, Chen Yanlong finally took the Aladdo Ar232 transport plane and arrived at the aircraft carrier training base established in Dönitz, Oder River.
As soon as he arrived here, Chen Yanlong saw from a distance that the aircraft carrier training base was built on the seashore, with large docks that could dock large warships such as aircraft carriers.
At the same time, there is also a military airport built on the beach, with two take-off and landing runways and several taxiways and guideways.
