On the morning of February 6, in the North Atlantic Ocean.
The fleet of the British Empire Royal Navy was sailing in this sea area. On each warship, the sailors were sticking to their posts. Everyone knew that the crisis might come soon.
As long as they could survive the next one or two days. Then, the Royal Navy would be completely safe.
However, danger is often doomed and unavoidable.
After 9 o’clock in the morning, the Royal Navy’s air search radar found that a large number of aircraft were approaching them.
"Report, Commander. The air search radar found that a large number of aircraft were flying towards us. Judging from the speed, they should be Russian seaplanes. The Russians are looking for our location." Admiral James Somerville had a serious expression.
"Can we avoid it?" Marshal John Tovey asked.
Admiral James Sommerville shook his head: "There is no way to avoid it. There are too many seaplanes dispatched by the Russians, at least dozens of seaplanes are flying in our direction in a fan shape. We can’t avoid it at all."
"Take off the carrier-based fighters to kill them?" Marshal John Tovey frowned.
"That’s possible. However, this will inevitably expose our position." Admiral James Sommerville replied.
"Order the carrier-based fighters to take off and kill the Russian seaplanes. The fleet should be prepared for battle! Since we can’t avoid the pursuit of the Russians, we can only withstand their attacks and then go to the North American continent." Marshal John Tovey made a quick decision.
"Yes, Commander!" Admiral James Sommerville replied.
After the combat order was issued, one after another Sea Spitfire fighters took off from the aircraft carriers of the Royal Navy of the British Empire.
Soon, dozens of Seafire fighters flew towards the seaplanes of the Russian Empire Navy.
When these seaplanes were only a few dozen kilometers away from the British Empire Royal Navy, they were attacked by the British Empire Seafire fighters.
Seaplanes are slow and have poor combat effectiveness. They are no match for carrier-based fighters.
So that these seaplanes of the Russian Empire Navy were almost easily sunk.
Dozens of seaplanes were shot down, and almost no one survived.
However, when these seaplanes were shot down, a telegram was sent to report the situation to the flagship.
The main fleet of the Russian Empire Navy responded quickly.
"Commander, our seaplanes were attacked by the British Empire’s carrier-based fighters. It is currently estimated that the British Empire’s fleet should be in this area!" Lieutenant General Katov reported.
"Order the carrier-based aircraft group to take off immediately and launch an attack. Also, send a telegram to the battlecruiser formation and ask them to speed up. Victory or defeat depends on this battle!" Marshal Isakov immediately issued the order.
"Yes, Commander,"Down!" Lieutenant General Kasatolov replied.
The aircraft carrier formation of the Russian Empire Navy immediately began to take off carrier-based aircraft.
On the deck of the aircraft carrier, a series of carrier-based aircraft had already been prepared. After receiving the order, these carrier-based aircraft immediately began to take off and dispatch according to the plan.
The MiG-41 fighter took off from the aircraft carrier first, followed by dive bombers and torpedo attack aircraft.
This time, as many as 31 aircraft carriers of the Russian Empire Navy were involved in the attack. The number of carrier-based aircraft groups that took off was naturally very considerable.
Six Don-class aircraft carriers and six Yunlong-class aircraft carriers, each took off 12 MiG-41 fighters, 12 dive bombers and 12 torpedo attack aircraft .
9 Lena-class aircraft carriers and 6 Taiho-class aircraft carriers, each launched 12 MiG-41 fighters, 18 dive bombers and 12 torpedo attack aircraft.
4 Yenisei-class aircraft carriers, each launched 12 MiG-41 fighters, 18 dive bombers and 18 torpedo attack aircraft.
Total, the first batch of carrier-based aircraft included 372 MiG-41 fighters, 468 dive bombers and 396 torpedo attack aircraft.
And this is just the first wave of carrier-based aircraft dispatched by the main fleet of the Russian Empire Navy. Next, there will be a second batch of carrier-based aircraft of the same size.
Ensure that in the two batches of carrier-based aircraft The attack was enough to severely damage or even destroy the British Empire’s Royal Navy.
The huge fleet of carrier-based aircraft was so huge that it blocked out the sun.
Even the sun in the sky was completely blocked.
When the carrier-based aircraft of the Russian Empire Navy was dispatched, the battlecruiser formation of the Russian Empire Navy was also accelerating. (To read the novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
The 4 Tiancheng-class battlecruisers, the two York-class battlecruisers and the four Mackensen-class battlecruisers have all increased their speed to more than 25 knots.
Ensure that after the carrier-based aircraft of the Russian Empire Navy completes the attack, they will be able to arrive at the battlefield and finish off the British Empire’s Royal Navy.
On the British Empire’s Royal Navy side, The officers and soldiers were also in a state of high tension.
All air search radars were turned on, closely monitoring the surrounding airspace.
The Royal Navy’s aircraft carriers were also full of carrier-based aircraft.
Moreover, these carrier-based aircraft were mainly carrier-based fighters.
The 22 aircraft carriers currently on the Royal Navy of the British Empire can only carry a total of just over a thousand carrier-based aircraft.
Among them, only one-third are carrier-based fighters, or about 350.
Now the Royal Navy of the British Empire wants to resist the attack of the Russian carrier-based aircraft group, rather than launch a counterattack (Qian Wang Zhao).
Even if they want to counterattack, they must first resist the Russian attack.Otherwise, even their own aircraft carriers would be sunk. Then, how can they fight back?
"’Woo! Woo!"
The shrill sound of air defense alarms rang over the fleet of the British Empire’s Royal Navy.
The air search radar has detected the incoming carrier-based aircraft of the Russian Empire Navy.
"Commander, the Russian carrier-based aircraft are coming. The scale is very large. There are more than a thousand fighters!" Admiral James Sommerville looked serious.
Marshal John Tovey’s expression was also extremely solemn.
The Russian Empire Navy only had one batch of carrier-based aircraft, which was more than all the carrier-based aircraft of the Royal Navy. It can be seen how big the gap in strength between the two sides is!
"Order the carrier-based aircraft to take off and do all-out air defense!" Marshal John Tovey ordered. .
