Chapter 1366: on schedule
I have to admit that the development plan of the island nation's navy is undoubtedly ambitious. A huge aircraft carrier construction plan, coupled with a perverted capital ship construction plan. Once these plans are all realized, the navy of the island nation will definitely be one of the most powerful navies in the world. Especially after the navy of the island country begins to build medium-sized aircraft carriers and heavy-duty armored aircraft carriers in batches, their strength will be greatly improved.
'Yunlong-class' aircraft carrier is a medium-sized aircraft carrier that despises defense and increases the number of carrier-based aircraft as much as possible. The "Taifeng" aircraft carrier and the "Changed Taifeng-class" aircraft carrier are armored aircraft carriers. Thicken the armor of the aircraft carrier to improve the survivability of the aircraft carrier, which will make the aircraft carrier of the island navy have a greater chance of surviving in future naval battles.
If the resources are sufficient, the navy of the island country will become stronger and stronger under the accumulation of these resources. If the German navy does not send more forces to the Pacific Ocean, it will undoubtedly be very difficult to defeat the island navy.
This time-space is completely different from another time-space. The strength of Germany brought the United States and the island countries together. Although they know that the islanders are starved wolves who can't get enough to eat, in order to be able to defeat Germany, the Americans are still sparing no effort to support the development of the island nation. This will undoubtedly allow the island country to have more resources and thus develop stronger.
At the same time, if the island countries can win in the plan to attack Nanyang and Australia, they can also obtain more resources from Nanyang and Australia. Even if the German army cannot be completely defeated in Southeast Asia and Australia, plundering resources from occupied areas has always been the strong point of the islanders. You don't need to think about it, these resources will become warships of the island navy.
If the German navy wants to defeat the island navy, it has to make itself stronger. Although Germany has no plans to develop capital ships, the construction of aircraft carriers has continued. From the 'Constellation-class' aircraft carrier, to the soon-to-be-completed 'Lord God-class' aircraft carrier, to the next-level 'Nordic God-class' aircraft carrier. It seems that it is not too difficult to defeat other powerful enemies with the performance of the German Navy's aircraft carrier and the performance of the carrier-based aircraft. Once Germany defeats Bu Russia and more and more aircraft carriers are in service at the same time, it will not be a problem to send more aircraft carriers to the Pacific Ocean. At that time, a large number of advanced aircraft carriers will arrive in the Pacific Ocean, and the navies of the island countries will simply not be able to cope. After all, Germany's shipbuilding strength is far above that of island countries. At the same time, Germany is not short of resources now. After Germany builds the "Nordic God-class" aircraft carrier, the aircraft carrier development plan of the island navy may not be completed yet. It is conceivable what the final result will be.
The "Yamato-class" battleships with huge displacement, strong anti-aircraft firepower, thick armor, and extremely perverted main guns, as well as the subsequent more powerful "Kai Yamato-class" battleships and "Super Yamato-class" battleships, are also very difficult to sink. . At that time, the German naval aviation may have to pay huge losses before they can sink these perverted capital ships.
In this time and space, the island nation will obtain more resources than in another time and space. Therefore, the navy of the island country has no aircraft carrier that can be built in another time and space, and it will build it in this time and space. This will make the island nation's navy stronger, and it will be more difficult to defeat it. The price paid will also be greater.
Of course, the strength of the German navy will also become stronger. This will enable the German Navy to defeat more powerful enemies and win the final victory.
It is undoubtedly still relatively early to say this now. What is before the German Navy is still to ensure their superiority in the Pacific Ocean and provide more support for the army, so that the army can continue to persist in the Southeast Asia and Australia battlefields. After the victory in the European battlefield, a large number of reinforcements will be sent to Southeast Asia and Australia to defeat the island army in one fell swoop.
The island navy task force is heading south quickly, the four powerful battleships 'Suruga', 'Omi', 'Mutsu' and 'Ise' battleships, in a group of cruisers and destroyers. Under the protection, he went southward in a mighty way.
"Your Excellency, Commander, Your Excellency Commander Nagumo sent us a message from a seaplane!" On the battleship "Suruga", Major General Suzuki Yoshio, Chief of Staff of the capital ship team, reported to Lieutenant General Takasu Shiro.
In the last naval battle, Lieutenant General Takasu Shiro led four "Amagi-class" battlecruisers, successfully attacked the German Navy's aircraft carrier formation, sank two German Navy aircraft carriers, and severely damaged the other two. Although in the process of escaping, three of the four "Amagi-class" ships were sunk, and the other ship was also severely damaged. But compared to the encounters of other fleets, it is undoubtedly much better. This is also the reason why Lieutenant General Takasu Shiro was able to serve as the commander of the reorganized battleship team.
Of course, compared with Admiral Yoshida Zengo, who has been promoted to the Minister of the Navy, Lieutenant General Takasu Shiro's promotion is relatively small.
However, Lieutenant General Takasu Shiro obviously prefers faster battlecruisers than commanding these battleships. It's just that there is only one "Amagi-class" battlecruiser left. Four more powerful "Gaitiancheng-class" battlecruisers are under construction, and it will take some time before they are ready to serve.
Lieutenant General Takasu Shiro took a look at the document, and the expression on his face suddenly became serious.
"Suzuki-kun, order the fleet to get ready! The German fleet may also be in this sea area. Tonight, we may still encounter them!" Lieutenant Admiral Takasu Shiro said.
"Hi, Your Excellency, Commander!" Major General Suzuki Yoshio's expression also became serious.
In the last naval battle, although they did not encounter the capital ship formation of the German Navy. However, the heavy cruisers of the German Navy were very tough, and their heavy cruisers had almost no power to fight back. In addition, from the mouths of officers and soldiers of other navies, they also knew the strength of the German Navy's battleship formation. Therefore, they know that once they encounter the capital ship formation of the German Navy, it will be very dangerous.
However, since it has already set off, it is impossible to escape now. The only thing that can be done is to try our best to defeat the German fleet. Lieutenant General Takasu Shiro believed that victory must belong to them.historical
Just after one o'clock in the morning on April 15, the sea search radar of a heavy cruiser of the German fleet was the first to discover the island nation fleet heading south.
