"Whoosh!"
A carrier-based FW-190 fighter jet took off from the aircraft carrier Poseidon, the flagship of German Home Fleet. The other seven aircraft carriers in the fleet were also taking off Carrier-based aircraft.
The carrier-based FW-190 fighter jet took off first, followed by Dive Bomber and Torpedo Bomber.
Although, in the battle to intercept US and British Navy's Carrier-based aircraft group, German military's carrier-based fighters suffered a lot of losses. The pilots were also very tired. However, at this moment these pilots are still fighting.
Each of the eight aircraft carriers of German Home Fleet and Aircraft Carrier Formation took off 18 carrier-based FW-190 fighter jets, 18 Dive Bomber, 18 or 12 Torpedo Bomber ('Sovereign-class' 18 aircraft carriers took off, and the 'Constellation-class' aircraft carrier took off 12 aircraft). The total number of these Carrier-based aircrafts reached 144 carrier-based FW-190 fighters, 144 Dive Bombers and 120 Torpedo Bombers.
The huge fleet sailed westward and pounced directly on American and British fleets.
When Home Fleet's Capital Ships formation was attacked, they also released seaplanes to detect the position of American and British fleets. Although several seaplanes were lost, the position of American and British fleets was still reported to the flagship. Now, Aircraft Carrier Formation of German Navy has finally begun to fight back against American and British fleets.
"Your Excellency Commander, the first wave of aircraft has finished taking off. The second wave of aircraft will take off in half an hour." Lieutenant General Hans reported.
Marshal Lütjens nodded. "I hope Valiant can retaliate with tooth for tooth, blood for blood, and hit American Navy and British Navy in one fell swoop."
"Your Excellency Commander, we will definitely do it!" Lieutenant General Hans was full of confidence.
American and British fleets's Carrier-based aircraft group all went to attack the Capital Ships formation, but Aircraft Carrier Formation did not suffer any losses. This not only protects them, but also provides them with a good opportunity to counterattack. It can be said that the Capital Ships formation sacrificed themselves for the sake of victory to gain such an opportunity. Of course Aircraft Carrier Formation must seize this opportunity and create American and British fleets in one fell swoop. Otherwise, we would be so sorry for the sacrifice of the Capital Ships formation.
On the eight aircraft carriers, ground crews are still busy. Carrier-based aircraft in the hangar is being lifted to the deck using a lift. The second wave of aircraft is preparing for takeoff. The second wave fleet still has 96 carrier-based FW-190 fighters, 144 Dive Bomber and 120 Torpedo Bomber. This wave of aircraft will soon take off, launching an attack on American and British fleets, striving to defeat American and British fleets in one fell swoop.
It can be said that in order to defeat American and British fleets in one fell swoop, German Home Fleet's Aircraft Carrier Formation tried their best. They didn't even keep any anti-aircraft fighters, they sent them all out in order to establish victory in one fell swoop.
German Home Fleet's Capital Ships formation, the fierce battle continues. The second wave of American and British fleets, Carrier-based aircraft, is still in formation with Capital Ships of Encirclement Offensive German military. The warships of the German military Capital Ships formation are also launching a heroic counterattack. Anti-aircraft Gun of various calibers and large-caliber anti-aircraft machine guns were still firing fiercely.
The battleship was burning and sinking. The sea is littered with the wreckage of battleships and sailors who fell into the water.
The Home Fleet Capital Ships formation suffered heavy losses under the attack of American and British fleets's Carrier-based aircraft group. However, they still persisted. Because, with their own sacrifice, they gave German Navy a chance to turn defeat into victory.
"General, the captain of the Battlecruiser 'Wörth' requested to abandon the ship. They could no longer hold on. They were hit by 25 Aerial Bomb and 12 Torpedo." Major General Rudolf reported.
Görcke Lieutenant General nodded, his heart seemed to be bleeding. He knew that after this battle, German Home Fleet's Capital Ships formation was almost completely wiped out.
"I hope that with our sacrifice, we can win a victory!" Lieutenant General Görcke said secretly to himself.
The sailors on the "Wörth" Battlecruiser left the warship in lifeboats. Soon, the battleship sank into the sea, becoming the third Capital Ships of the German Home Fleet Capital Ships formation lost in this battle.
'Kurfürst Friedrich Wilhelm' number Battlecruiser is suffering from Encirclement Offensive. Most of the battleships that escorted it had been damaged. Although the remaining battleships are still holding on, they are no longer able to withstand the attack of American and British fleets's Carrier-based aircraft.
"General, I'm afraid the 'Kurfürst Friedrich Wilhelm' won't last much longer." Major General Rudolf looked sad.
"Americans and British's Carrier-based aircraft also suffered a lot. I'm afraid they will no longer be able to launch a large-scale attack. And our counterattack will begin soon. In this battle, we will definitely win the final victory." Lieutenant General Görcke is full of confidence in the final victory.
"Sir, we are out of bombs and Torpedo."
"Damn it, retreat! Speed back, refill fuel and ammunition, and then launch an attack." Commander of US and British Navy's Carrier-based aircraft group ordered.
Although, they have achieved very good results. However, if their own losses are included, such results are obviously not enough.
The second wave fleet of American and British fleets has a total of 612 Carrier-based aircraft. But after the interception by German military's carrier-based fighter jets and the attack by German fleet's anti-aircraft firepower, less than two hundred were left. Even including the remaining aircraft from the first wave of fleets, there are only 350 aircraft in total. This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to Carrier-based Aircraft Unit of American and British fleets. Calculated in this way, their losses have been as high as 70%.
It can be said that after consuming so much Carrier-based aircraft. American and British fleets It is impossible to win this naval battle.
On American and British fleets's flagship 'Essex-class' aircraft carrier, Lieutenant General Halsey is reporting the results of the battle to Admiral Ernest King.
"General, our Carrier-based aircraft has now sunk four German Navy and Capital Ships, and more than twenty cruisers and destroyers have been sunk by us. The other three Capital Ships have also been severely damaged. It can be said that the Capital Ships formation of German Home Fleet has suffered a devastating blow." Lieutenant General Halsey reported.
"Very good, as long as we work harder, we can completely kill them." Admiral Ernest Jin seemed to be very satisfied with the victory of the Carrier-based aircraft group.
"However, General, our Carrier-based aircraft group was intercepted by German Navy's carrier-based fighter jets and hit by the enemy's ship-based air defense firepower. Moreover, so far, we have not discovered the German aircraft carrier formation." Lieutenant General Halsey reminded.
The smile on Admiral Ernest King's face suddenly solidified.
