How much fuel was the aircraft carrying at that time? I'm afraid that when the last attack plane took off, the fighter plane in front would have been forced to fly to the target. Therefore, the entire attack process would be delayed for a very long time, and the so-called wave can only become a few waves of attacks with a certain interval in actual operation.

In order to carry out such an attack, it takes a long time to replenish and position the aircraft. You have to add fuel and ammunition to the deck and place it strictly on the deck for positioning. You must know that the refueling and bullets at that time were mainly manpower, loading hundreds of kilograms of bombs and torpedoes, loading dozens of aircraft with five-digit bullets, and using manpower to push several tons of aircraft to a designated position. However, the number of ground crew members is limited, and their energy is also limited. In fact, after preparing for this wave of attack, these ground crew members may be exhausted.

(What? Don't believe this? Readers who have cars at home can push the cart to experience it themselves. For example, the more popular Lavida weighs only 1.6 tons. On this plane, it is about the weight of an armed fighter aircraft, which is less than half the weight of a fully loaded attack aircraft. In fact, push two steps, and then imagine it.)

Overall, this tactical offensive effect may not be as good as paper. The preparation and force are too long. After the fight, the follow-up will be weak and there is almost no mission elasticity. For example, if the opponent appears first and the plane is in the air, what should you do if you are going to attack aircraft on the rear deck? In fact, the best way is to throw the fighter aircraft on the front deck. The attack aircraft on the rear deck should not think about the hangar. Just push it directly into the sea. After all, even if your ground crew has three heads and six arms, unload the ammunition before the enemy attacks, what should you do if the fuel inside? Whether it is to reclaim it in the hangar or park it on the deck, it will be a huge incendiary bomb! Don’t throw it away and wait for it to be bombed?

Therefore, this very extreme fighting method has very limited significance in actual combat. In the Pacific War, the Americans also chose a half-wheel attack method similar to the Japanese. They released less than half of the aircraft at a time, and then continued to prepare in a short period of time. If the opponent suddenly appears, they can also adjust temporarily. Release and recycling are both good, more flexible and easier to operate.
