Outside Cooks Harbor, the prince and his group sat on the German royal yacht Hohenzollern and headed to the exercise waters. It was depressing enough. Judging from the assets that the family had, Bavaria had passed the German royal family, and even farther than a large German capitalist and banker such as Krupp. In terms of the wealth dominated by the family, the Wittelsbach family was not only the first in Germany, but also the top three standards in the whole of Europe! As for whether it can be compared with family groups such as Rockefeller and Boston, it is not clear.&1t;/p>

However, such a powerful and wealthy family with a prominent status does not have a high-end yacht of their own, which is indeed quite ashamed. It seems to be very shameless to outsiders. The prince's grandfather is old and rarely comes out, so there is no need. The prince's father is interested in this, but after he took over as the King of Bavaria, everything is plagued by Bavaria. Now Bavaria needs him to deal with too many things. In addition to the more factories, the relationship between Bavaria and the German Emperor and the Austrian Emperor has also become very subtle. As for the prince? In the eyes of this time traveler in later generations, it is better to build a few more submarines than to make a yacht...&1t;/p>

(In history, the assets of the German royal family seemed to be only the top ten standards in Germany. Krupp's assets ranked higher than the German Emperor. Of course, the German Emperor theoretically owns the entire Germany.)&1t;/p>

On the outside sea, two target ships were sailing slowly under the traction of the tugboat. If they simply hit fixed targets, it would be natural that there was no persuasion, so the prince decided to increase the difficulty. The two target ships sailed past the yacht with a 8-minute voyage. At this time, the sound of motivation from the southwest air attracted the attention of everyone present.&1t;/p>

The first batch of 2O multiple bombers and torpedo aircraft entered the field. In fact, the torpedo aircraft of this era are actually bombers that can hold fish... Before the large-angle dive bombing matures, before the results of the aircraft reach a certain level, the bomber can only dive at a small angle, or simply horizontal bombing. If you make an analogy, it is the Japanese naval torpedo aircraft carrying 8ookg special armor-piercing bombs horizontally in Pearl Harbor. Well, that's it!&1t;/p>

To be honest, the prince has "rehearsed" several times in this exercise, not to mention that although the target of this attack was moving, it could not dodge. The first one was torpedo aircraft formation. Under the command of Lieutenant Rudel, the four torpedo aircraft quickly lowered their altitude after the target was present, and soon dropped from 5oo meters to 15o meters. Finally, they approached the target almost close to the sea level. The four aircraft were divided into two groups again. Lieutenant Rudel and his companions attacked for the first time,&1t;/p>

Looking at the target gradually becoming clearer in the distance, Rudel asked the shooters in the back seat to make their final preparations. When the two sides gathered, the shooters in the back seat aimed at the bow and pulled down the handle! A 35omm torpedo drew an arc in the air and fell into the water. The torpedo's depth was set at 3 meters underwater. Thankfully, after reaching the specified depth, the torpedo's motive was turned on, and the gyroscope and propeller were not damaged. A straight white line approached the target from below the sea!&1t;/p>

"?!I'll go, what's going on?" Rudel could guarantee that he had seen the torpedo hit the side of the target ship with his own eyes and then sank into the bottom of the sea. "Damn it, it's not that the fuse is wrong, right?" The torpedo fuze will have some problems from time to time, with a probability of about 20%. Another torpedo attack aircraft next to him was not hit, and the torpedo paddled through the side of the hull and sailed to the distance.&1t;/p>

"This attack does not seem to be very successful." Prince Heinrich touched his chin and said.&1t;/p>

"The aircraft carrier will not only dispatch two aircraft at one time." The prince said disapprovingly. Even if the target is a low-driving target ship, you cannot expect the torpedo hit rate to reach more than 50% without interference. This is tolerant. After all, if an aircraft carrier attacks a warship, it must at least have a two-digit attack aircraft.&1t;/p>

Fortunately, the two torpedo aircraft in the second wave of attack performed well. The fourth torpedo entered the water safely, and there was no problem with the fuse, and it accurately hit the target ship. With a loud bang, the 3ooo tons of target ship was blown into two sections. At this time, the German Navy senior official who was watching had a smile on his face.&1t;/p>

However, before the prince could breathe a sigh of relief, some problems occurred when the bomb attack on the No. 2 target ship, because this time, the target ship found by the German Navy seemed to be smaller, 50 tons smaller than the 3ooo tons target ship attacked by torpedo! That is, the displacement of a 2-World destroyer is only 80 meters long and just over 14 meters wide... plus the 10-kilometer navigation, which makes the pilots of the Swordfish Wing feel a little trouble!&1t;/p>

"I'm going, why is the target so small this time? Aren't we dealing with the main ship? Who has ever seen a main ship with the same specification as a torpedo boat!" The throw-in in the back seat cursed with one hand.&1t;/p>

"Okay, stop complaining, I'll lower the altitude to 15o meters. Do your best." The pilot in the front seat said with a little depressed expression.&1t;/p>

The first bomb drew an arc in the air and fell into the water, then the second, third..... The fifth.... After the first group of aircraft threw the bomb, they decisively took a zero egg and went back....&1t;/p>

"This, the effect of air attacks against sea is really bad. If you look at this hit rate, it will be at most 20% hit rate. Moreover, this is still in the fight against the target of no counterattack and at the same time it will be only 10 quarters." Scher, who was standing by, could not stand it anymore.&1t;/p>

"If we dispatch 2o bombers at a time, then the probability of 2o% is that 4 hits the target, and one aircraft can only carry a 3ookg-level bomb. Although the bomb loading volume is a bit high, the killing effect is still very average." General Feng Boer continued.&1t;/p>

Fortunately, the subsequent two attacks were pretty good. The sixth and seventh bombers were thrown on the target ship accurately. The 15okg explosive was not a joke. The second hit was a waste. Just one bomb exploded this guy with only the size of the destroyer to pieces! At this point, although the performance was not satisfactory this time, the result was quite reasonable. At least two target ships were not towed back.&1t;/p>

"This exercise left a deep impression on me, at least let us know that it is feasible to attack warships from the air. I would like to report everything to the German Emperor. Considering this efficiency, I think the other two aircraft carriers can be used as ordinary ships, and don't use high-speed ships. The number of carrier-based aircraft can also be reduced appropriately." Prince Heinrich said.&1t;/p>
