Chapter 1032 Battle! Kunlun VS Iowa 3!

Although the "Missouri" forced its maneuver and quickly left the sea area, it only ran about one kilometer, and then subtracted the time and distance taken to turn. This is quite amazing. I have to thank this battleship for its powerful power of up to 212,000 axle horsepower, which was extremely effective when it was urgent!

But in the end, there was still no change! There were no fewer shells in him!

The intelligent fire control system on the opposite side disperses fifty-four main guns into several groups that cross each other. According to the relatively stable shooting performance, the trimming is accurate to the elements after the decimal point, and the chaotic operation deduction results that are so precise that all the human calculations in this world collapse together. The final shells fired completely cover the possible maneuver change.

After all, no matter how fast a warship can run, it has strict performance stuck, and there is no possibility of explosion, and it cannot be done even if it turns around. With such calculations, it basically cannot run out of the dispersion range!

So, a total of two groups of joint strike groups, consisting of a total of 36 shells, superimposed about one-third of the scattered area on each other, and happened to cover the Missouri in the middle!

This attack is even more fierce than last time!

First, a shell brought the open observation deck on the top of the bridge. The three observers who were trying to observe with a telescope were blown up on the spot and didn't even have any residue left. Several large optical observers were destroyed at the same time. The telescope of the warship became blind for the moment!

The next shell drilled a small hole from the base of the rear bridge from behind, and the serious kinetic energy penetrated into the armor. However, the secondary damage of the explosion was too great, and half of the warhead fragments were rammed into the armor like a sledgehammer hitting a nail. It rammed hard into the inside of the armor, causing the solid surface reinforced steel plate to shatter.

But the real killing comes from the transmission of kinetic energy! Americans learned from China's practice and built a protective structure that fits the lining armor in it - a smuggled Chinese tank.

However, they do not have basalt fiberboard, and Kevlar's production is too low, so they use some fiberglass. The composite lining is made of relatively thin and lighter high-strength aluminum (from the Japanese technology).

The advantages of this structure are light weight, strong strength, good toughness, and superior impact resistance. The disadvantage is that the bulletproof ability is not enough!

The real function of the bottom lining is not to prevent the armor-piercing bullet from drilling in, but more to prevent the broken and crushed brittle high-strength armored steel from being broken and broken. Under the impact of the explosion, it forms a large piece of high-speed killing that is thousands of times more terrifying than the bullet, and it kills the inner layer by shooting!

You know, when dealing with a tank, the armor-piercing cone that is hit is thicker than the thumb, which can basically end the crew inside.

The shells that came from the battleships were as thick as one! Just a little bit of fragments or the collapsed fragments of high-strength steel plates were shot out at a speed of two thousand meters per second. The penetration was terrifying. It was simply unimaginable!

Americans learn the rules, but their linings are really useless. Compared with the data that exceeds at least three times the steel, which is at least three times the data of basalt fiber, it is not on the same order of magnitude!

This shell caused similar secondary indirect damage! The broken armored steel fragments collapsed inward at a speed that was too fast, and the lining board could not stop them at all. Hundreds of pieces of different sizes immediately swept unscrupulously in the spacious cabin. Wherever they passed, people were overturned, and more than a dozen officers inside were caught off guard and more than half of them died on the spot!

The collision and explosion bombardment made the warship tremble, and the people inside the bridge were unable to stand firmly!

But this is not the main thing, because they didn't care about experiencing it at all. Everyone was caused by the repeated explosions, causing the cerebellum to lose control!

The third shell hit the front armor of the C turret behind. The Missouri, which had already come across and was about to fire in the distance, did not want to continue to be passively beaten, and planned to use the maximum range to give the opponent a ruthless first, but unexpectedly, he was hit first!

The shell hit the turret base. The thick protection easily blocked the impact of the armor-piercing shell, but the upward explosion stuck the barrel in the middle. And more than 20 gunners inside were shocked and aimed? Don't joke! It's a blessing to be alive!

There is also the fourth shell! It penetrated hard from the bow deck, and the explosion opened a hole on the right side, rolling smoke came out, swelling up and backward, covering their own vision!

The remaining shells fell in a mess around, the roar of explosions and the water column soared into the sky made the Missouri look like a knight charging into battle. However, it looked so embarrassed and helpless, rushing left and right, surrounded by enemy artillery fire, unable to find a way out, not knowing the direction, and being in crisis step by step, unable to move forward!

The Americans were so popular that the Chinese were so shameless! How could you pick up a target and hit it? There are so many warships here, enough for you to deal with? Isn’t it? What’s the point of always venting for an opponent!

...They could only make such howls. They couldn't command Zhu Bin how to fight, even if it seemed, it was a very inappropriate approach.

Zhu Bin doesn't care about that! The live broadcast of the air makes people excited and full of energy. Although the hit rate has not been qualitatively improved, as long as you keep hitting, I believe the opponent can't stand it for too long. The armor-piercing ability is not strong? It doesn't matter, let's get closer and fight!

Two of the four Kunlun-class battleships were recently unveiled. The Americans did not know their existence before. After taking it out, the firepower density has greatly improved.

After tilting inward slightly, he still aimed at the enemy ship with the entire turret sideways, and stopped for about one minute, allowing the gun tube to be fully cooled. The corrosion and tremor caused by the launch were cleaned and stabilized, and then the gun continued to be fired!

Thirty-nine kilometers! It is still near the range limit of the US military naval guns, so they cannot aim accurately! They can see the existence here through the telescope, but in fact, they can only look shady, plus the influence of the steam on the surface of Shanghai. They are in a daze, aim? Don’t joke!

Then you have to react!

Nimitz personally took the action and ordered the other three warships to fire immediately to cover up, interfering with the opponent's precise aiming and shooting. No matter whether they can hit it or not, in short, it can't continue like this. No one can stand it!

At the same time, the remaining eight cruisers were ordered to scatter forward and backward, and make the highest speed rush towards the opposite side. A bunch of torpedo interference was released in the middle of the road. Then they continued to force in, relying on their numerical advantage, they tried to use the same trick again to interfere with the overall attack.

The idea is beautiful, but they probably forgot that the guy on the other side never plays according to common sense!

As soon as the cruiser moved, Zhu Bin discovered it. Especially after seeing the torpedo in the water and started to speed up, he was even more angry and scolded: "The annoying things are not useful, but they are always making trouble. It's really annoying! Tell the Yingzhou and clean them up!"

He was just intrigued, so how could he let others disturb him? Without saying a word, he was going to make a big move!

After the battle broke out, the "Yingzhou" nuclear-powered missile cruiser retreated second and kept cruising on the periphery of the battleship, providing all-round defense assistance. After receiving the order, the shared data and images were immediately input into the main control system. Soon, the tracks, orientations, etc. of the US heavy cruiser that was scattered in, and all the calculations were completed.

Immediately, more than a dozen HD-1 Harpoon subsonic anti-ship missiles were fired through the common vertical launch cabin!

This image is so eye-catching! The US military's high-altitude reconnaissance plane saw the white tracks like a dozen chrysanthemums at a glance, and almost fell off immediately! Damn this is another secret move! Can the Chinese be fair? I can't stand it if I always do this!

All the US warships below sounded the joint air defense alarm at the same time. Various air artillery fires, regardless of thickness, size, and at the maximum rate of fire, according to the pre-rehearing angle, rumbling fires in groups, forming explosion blocking fire networks in various airspaces in high, medium and low!

This move was used to the extreme by the US military!

But this time, it was not that easy to use! After all, they were relatively scattered, and there were too many targets that needed to be covered! The destroyers who helped were following behind to avoid the bombardment of the main gun - they were seeking death from the fire, and they could only use the long-range and high firing of the 127mm gun as much as possible to provide some help. The four battleships caused great dispersion.

However, it has to be said that after the Americans strengthened their air defense, the 20 four-unit 40mm anti-aircraft guns of each of the four battleships were enough, as well as 60 20mm Erickon machine guns, plus the secondary guns, each battleship had as many as 160 air force!

There are so many! But first of all, you have to use the right place! Massing is a good player, but dealing with missiles? You have to think about it!

The missile just started to take off, and a volcano suddenly erupted in the sea and air opposite. The scene scared Zhu Bin first! What's the situation? I didn't let the plane make a fuss!

When we looked at the array grid again, we understood that this is a professional missile interception strategy! We played the rest of the things we had before, but unexpectedly, they were picked up by the Americans and treated them as treasures. They were used to intercept missiles. There was a set of them!

But we have to admit that Americans’ reference is very effective!

Not to mention anything else, the terrifying artillery of more than a thousand large and large artillery shells were spectacular! The rumbling explosion filled the area of ​​a city. If it was bombarded to the ground, a piece of ruin could be cleared in the blink of an eye.

Zhu Bin praised: "We have to say that the Americans are rich and powerful! How much does this wasted shell cost? Thinking about the fact that Japan had this trick on itself, we might not have been able to do it today. The planes would have ended long ago!"

But no? At the beginning, he used an airplane to bully the Japanese navy, and made the Japanese who did not pay attention to air defense all kinds of helplessness, so he gradually protected the thin navy to grow and grow. Now that we have today!

If the Japanese Navy had been more eye-catching at that time, it would have taken away the Army's 37mm anti-aircraft guns and 20mm counterfeit guns as early as possible, and replaced the unreliable 25mm shotguns on the warships (the 25mm cannon that was trembling all over and could not find the target as soon as it hits), and the 13.2 heavy machine gun, perhaps, the effect would be very different.

However, no one can take any regret medicine in time. Now the Japanese are awakened, it’s too late!

Zhu Bin then shook his head and sighed: "What a pity! This trick was too late! It's impossible to deal with our missiles! Do you know where we launched it? Moreover, our missiles don't go from high altitudes!"

After the distance is widened, the trajectory of the subsonic light anti-ship missile can be fully changed. Not long after entering a high altitude, it will sink rapidly. At the end, it will enter the sea-skipping flight stage, and the minimum can be at an ultra-low altitude of 30 meters. Not to mention that all kinds of anti-aircraft guns cannot reach, even if you use a machine gun, you cannot aim accurately!

Americans don’t know this. In the past, they were mostly affected by missiles at night, and most of them were supersonic heavy anti-ship missiles. That thing was reentered after entering space. Nearly vertical strikes are even more difficult to prevent!

Now, in broad daylight, I can finally see the truth, but suddenly, everyone feels cold!

More than a dozen missiles rushed to the sea. The heavy tail behind them did not go away for a long time. The amplification effect caused by the rocket tail flame heating water vapor looks even more spectacular!

In particular, the dozen curved white smokes rushed straight from the side to the heavy cruiser, so agile that it seemed as if someone was driving remotely. This made them, who were shooting fiercely towards the sky, unable to take out any temptation!

"Boom! Boom!"

Earth-shaking explosions rang out one after another!

Four heavy cruisers on the north side of the US formation were shot one after another!

The terrifying anti-ship missiles are four of them that deal with one target, some of them blasted in from the side, some of them hit the waterline, some of them breaking through the bridge from the top, and some of them hitting the main turret.

But without exception, they were all penetrated and the armor protection was useless. The bombardment of the semi-armored warhead shattered the internal structure. Four heavy cruisers all showed up in the fireworks, tilted around and poured water hard. Thousands of crew members on each ship were killed and injured, intact, and they were rushing to escape---everyone could see that the warship was beyond help!

Zhu Bin put down the telescope and said calmly: "I hope I can give them a little more memory this time! Want to use conventional means to guard against attacks? Humph, it is best not to have that kind of thought! I would like to give them a warning first!"

Nimitz didn't understand it so much. His first thought was to be teased!

That's right! I was fooled by the Chinese!

He didn't understand why the Chinese had such a terrible weapon and wanted to come up and play naval guns and bombard the enemy? If he had the highest efficiency, he would just kill all the main ships in the distance. What to do?

Of course he couldn't understand that the Chinese Navy had to make up for the lost half-century shortcomings, re-cultivate the naval spirit, and use the bloody and fire of artillery battles to create a new generation of naval elites. Otherwise, they would make them comfortable and safely lying in the missile ship, pressing buttons across hundreds of kilometers to form a group of young master soldiers, which is useless!

In that case, once the naval powers make a breakthrough in technology and create missiles, even if the accuracy is not as good as Zhu Bin, it will be a headache. Once the industrial powers like the United States are open to production, their efficiency will be scary! Zhu Bin doesn't want to face another missile wave except for the sea of ​​aircraft!

Therefore, the navy must have military spirit and fighting will! In short, it is already too much for him to add the main battleship to the electromagnetic shield. Seriously speaking, it should be like the Taishan-class battleship that got up early, without anything, just using a naval gun to fight the enemy to the death!

But Nimitz had no choice. The tricks they worked hard to study could prevent the top and the bottom. They used missiles as fighters, flying at ultra-low altitudes, how could you stop them? He did not have the professional interception firepower of the "Iron Curtain" and the perverted artifacts of "dandelion". He could only lower the firing angle and stare at them!

It’s not that you can’t shoot at low altitude. The key is that you haven’t practiced that trick!

When he thought that he might force the warship to look like a hedgehog in the future, when the other party smoked, he would launch everywhere... Nimitz felt that the sky was dark and the earth would definitely not be able to be fixed!

He sighed inwardly, and waved his hand to let the other cruisers retreat. Don’t come up and die meaninglessly. A warship, more than a thousand people, 14,000 tons of steel and weapons, just to seduce the other party’s desire to strike, is not worth it!

It’s better to use the main ship and fight to the death!

After realizing the situation, Nimitz did not hesitate and moved the four warships to the middle again, transformed the shovel formation into a quasi-parallel line, and all of them crossed, facing a target, and fired violently!

I have four warships and 36 guns. If I don’t believe it, I won’t hit you?

This approach was what Zhu Bin was most happy to see. The four Kunlun class ships immediately increased their bids. As the distance between the two sides reached 35 kilometers, the US military's volley could land not far away, and the spread was getting smaller and smaller. Only then did he issue an order: "Replace conventional armor-piercing bombs and fire with the fastest rate of fire!"

The slender bottom concave extended range bomb was immediately replaced by a standard 420mm heavy armor-piercing bomb! The firing rate also changed from a volley per minute to an overspeed forced firing mode of 2.5 rounds per minute!

In just one minute, the shells that fell on and around the USS Missouri battleship increased sharply, and their strike capabilities rose sharply!

Compared with much lighter long-range warheads, the weight of conventional heavy armor-piercing bombs is higher than that of the Yamato-class iron lump. The warhead has better aerodynamic shape, a longer range, and a larger hit kinetic energy and armor-piercing depth!
