Jemille was right. When the speed of the Citigrier's heavy aircraft carrier began to slow, Huaxia's torpedo machine and dive bomber were like cats who smelled fishy smells.
Immediately, more than ten torpedo planes and more than ten dive bombers pounced on the heavy aircraft carrier.
"Boom~"
A huge explosion was heard, and the Citicorp aircraft carrier, which had already slowed down, once again received a 500-kilogram heavy aviation bomb on its deck.
The 500-kilogram heavy aerial bomb directly blew through its fragile deck, exposing the interior of the aircraft carrier below the deck.
"Boom~"
Another aviation bomb fell. This aviation armor-piercing bomb passed through the deck of the Citicorp aircraft carrier and exploded directly inside the aircraft carrier. Immediately afterwards, other dive bombers also tilted their bombs towards the Citizen aircraft carrier in a decent manner.
"The billowing black smoke rose straight up from the Citizen aircraft carrier, and a fire was ignited inside the entire aircraft carrier. Damage control personnel on the aircraft carrier continued to put out the fire.
The torpedo planes on the sea level also began to attack because Citigroup was constantly attacked.
The first wave of attacks was carried out jointly by three torpedo planes. They acted like before. After reaching a certain distance, the three torpedo planes released the torpedoes under their belly.
The second wave of attacks was carried out by five torpedo planes. Less than three minutes after they dropped the first wave of torpedoes, they dropped the second wave of torpedoes.
The third wave of attacks consists of the remaining seven torpedo planes. They still dropped the torpedoes less than three minutes after the second wave of torpedoes were dropped.
Three waves of attacks, a total of fifteen torpedoes, were dropped one after another within six minutes.
Fifteen lines of white waves shot towards the Citigroup heavy aircraft carrier.
Halsey stood on the bridge, using a telescope to look at the fifteen white lines of waves with a cold expression.
"Gemiel, send them a message and ask them to abandon the ship. The aircraft carrier cannot be saved!"
Halsey knew very well that the fifteen torpedoes were released when the aircraft carrier's speed was seriously reduced. How many more can it dodge?
Based on the current situation, it can dodge up to six torpedoes, which is still the maximum limit. In fact, being able to dodge five would be pretty good.
Fifteen torpedoes were launched in no more than six minutes. The aircraft carrier, which had slowed down and was unable to move easily, was not easy to avoid at all.
"Boom~"
"Boom~"
"Boom~"
?? Continuous explosions sounded on the aircraft carrier, and gaps appeared one after another below the waterline of the aircraft carrier.
Rough seawater continues to pour into the interior of the aircraft carrier.
Halsey was right. So many holes appeared in just a few minutes, and there were such big gaps that damage control personnel simply couldn¡¯t save them.
There was a raging fire on the aircraft carrier, and thick black smoke was constantly rising. Explosions continued to occur inside the aircraft carrier.
Some Citigroup sailors were riding in lifeboats, trying to escape. After all, the whirlpool caused by the sinking of the aircraft carrier was enough to swallow them up.
But more Citizen sailors can only put on life jackets and lifebuoys on the boat, and keep rowing across the sea, hoping to get away from here as soon as possible.
"General Halsey, it's sinking!"
Jamil stood behind Halsey, looking at the aircraft carrier that had begun to tilt seriously, and said to Halsey.
"I know! But the battle is not over yet!"
yes! The battle is indeed not over yet. The sinking of this aircraft carrier has become a settlement, and torpedo planes and dive bombers have evacuated here.
No one is interested in an aircraft carrier that is 100% sure to sink.
On Attu Island
There are air battles going on in the sky, naval battles going on at sea, and on Attu Island, the war is still not over.
The battle between China and Citigroup is still going on, but it is not as fierce as the previous two days. To be precise, it's not that cruel.
The battle in the first two days was a desperate attack by the Citi Army and a desperate defense by the Chinese Army.
Both sides use their own strength to confront each other. It doesn't work now, the losses are too great, and both sides have a tacit understanding to place their hopes on their own army, aviation and navy.
Although the two sides are still fighting, it is already a small-scale battle.
"How is the airport's repair work going?"
Yagyu¡¯s headquarters is a??The underground bunker headquarters was built in the past few days in a hurry.
At this time, he was standing inside and asked softly.
¡°The repair work at the airport is still in progress. But overall it¡¯s pretty good. Although we blew up some things at the airport before, it¡¯s still relatively easy to repair now.
We mainly need to repair the runway and apron first. It should be fully repaired tomorrow. I just don¡¯t know how the airport construction work on Bering Island is going.
If the airport on Bering Island is not built, the Army Aviation fighter planes will not be able to reach the front line! "
Because the straight-line distance from Ust-Kamantsk to Attu Island is more than 760 kilometers, if the bf109 fighter planes want to come over, they can only do so by transiting on Bering Island, otherwise the Army Aviation fighter planes will pass by. Not coming.
"I guess they're working on it quickly! I heard that the Navy's engineering team is rapidly constructing there. And the airport there is just a transit airport. Three or four temporary runways plus a large apron can complete the transfer of BF109 fighters. .¡±
Liu Sheng said softly, answering the staff officer's words.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
At this time, on the Kamchatka Peninsula, the sky has begun to slowly darken, and the air battle in the sky has long ended.
"One hundred and forty-seven"
"One hundred and forty-eight"
"One hundred and forty-nine"
"one hundred fifty"
Wu Yong stood on the edge of the airport, counting the planes landing at the airport. When he counted to one hundred and fifty, no more planes landed behind him.
"Seventy-five fighter planes were lost today! One air force regiment was lost."
Wu Yong¡¯s lips moved slightly, and he couldn¡¯t help but think about it.
"Commander, should we send a request for help to China? Seventy-five Falcon fighter jets were lost today. Now there are only one hundred and fifty Falcon fighter jets left.
Most of them are injured. Even if we repair the aircraft overnight tonight and replace parts, we will only have 150 Falcons that can take off tomorrow! "
The staff officer standing next to Wu Yong said. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
