The Third Reich

Radar is a detection method. If the radar wave returns to the transmitting antenna, it is an ordinary detection radar. If the radar wave returns to the seeker of a bomb or missile, providing guidance information to them, it is radar guidance. In later generations, a large number of Missiles, especially air-to-air missiles, are guided by radar.

This requires accumulation of technology. The facts of the early Sparrow air-to-air missiles have shown how difficult it is to mature an advanced technology.

Germany has already developed transistors and has not taken the road of semi-active radar guidance, because Cyrenk knows that this kind of technology is immature. After the development of microelectronics and integrated circuits, it is not too late to consider it.

The United States does not.

In history, in addition to the development of radio-command-guided bombs, the Americans also developed semi-active radar-guided bombs.

The SWODMK-7 Pelican semi-active radar-guided bomb was developed in 1942 when the US Defense Research Council began to develop a radar-guided anti-ship glide bomb for the US Navy. The project was terminated in 44 because of its congenital defects.

(SWOD, special weapons and ammunition device.)

In the same year, the U.S. Navy also developed an active radar-guided glide bomb parallel to the Pelican for backup considerations. Its vehicle is similar to an airplane and the warhead is a 1000-pound bomb. The detection signal of this bomb is issued by itself. Yes, so it is called a bat. It is actually the principle of active radar missiles, similar to how bats in nature use ultrasonic echo to locate.

The bat was originally named MK-57, and later changed to SWODMK-9 for unification. At the end of 1944, the bat was successfully thrown in a test and entered combat preparations in January 1945.

Now, this era is very different from history. Because Germany has made rapid progress in its guidance technology and has shown great power in anti-ship operations many times, the United States has also increased its research and development efforts. There are already anti-ship bombs available.

The Americans are under great pressure. Seeing that the German warships are built like dumplings, they will soon dominate the Atlantic. If the United States does not take countermeasures, can the United States defend the last territory of the free world?

The development of these projects is secret, so many people present didn't even know about it. Now, Arnold suddenly proposed it because it had already reached a point of time.

Using B-29 bombers and carrying special anti-ship bombs to fly into the air of the island nation’s fleet to blow up all the islanders’ warships, they must at least blow up their aircraft carriers. In this way, the situation of war can still be reversed. Wait until their aircraft carrier formation comes back, and then beat the remaining island navy. This is their only choice!

It must be fast. The quicker they react, the less time left for the islanders. Once the islanders have consolidated their base on the island, it will be difficult for them to do anything.

"Well, immediately dispatch the 58th Bomber Wing, hoping it can surprise us." Roosevelt said: "We can't stand the failure again and again."

In the battle between the Soviet Union and Germany, the Soviet Union continued to fail and the country was eroded. Now, in the Siege of Kiev, hundreds of thousands of Soviet troops have been wiped out. Everyone is not optimistic about the Soviet battlefield. Once the Soviet Union is defeated by Germany, Germany will definitely pounce on the United States. If the United States cannot defeat the island country now, then the United States will be forced to fight on two fronts.

Now, the situation is absolutely unfavorable to the United States, and the United States must use a victory to boost morale.

Arnold nodded.

In history, the 58th Bomber Wing was also famous. After its establishment, the Wing was secretly deployed to China at Roosevelt’s insistence. Using China as a base to attack the island country, the United States finally could fly directly to the top of the island country without using an aircraft carrier. Throw a bomb.

And now, after the establishment of this alliance, what the United States needs to do is to use it to bomb the aircraft carrier formation of the island nation!

With the order being issued, the station of the 58th Bomber Wing immediately entered the tense preparation. The rest of the pilot became sleepy and was called into the pilot preparation room.

"Maybe many people don't know. I will introduce here. An hour ago, the navy of the island nation came out and occupied our way island. This time, the people of the island nation landed directly on our way island." The commander, Major General Kenneth-B-Ulf said: "Now, the President personally signed the order, and our entire wing took off and immediately went to the waters of the Tu Island, looking for the aircraft carrier formation of the islanders, and blowing it up!"

The island was occupied. The news was immediately discussed among the pilots. The expressions on their faces were filled with indignation. At the same time, they knew that Hawaii was at stake and they had to contribute their strength to the United States!

"The 444th Bombing Group and the 40th Bombing Group set off first, carrying VB-1 bombs. The bombs are now being loaded. Note that there are only five channels for simultaneous guidance ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ so it may take a long time for you to drop them. All the bombs, the first to blow the aircraft carrier of the island nation!"

"Understood!" the captains of the two brigade shouted.

"The 462nd and 468th bombing groups set off half an hour apart. You carry bat bombs to sink all the remaining warships of the islanders, and let the islanders know the power of our bombers!"

"understand!"

"In order to avoid being intercepted by island fighters, our bombing altitude is preset at 8,000 meters. If it is found that island fighters can fly to our altitude, it will be increased to 10,000 meters." Major General Ulf continued: " This bombing is related to the fate of our United States. We must fight for our national destiny!"

"Understand!" All the pilots replied loudly: "The interests of the United States are above all else!"

A famous pilot left the flight preparation room and ran towards their plane.

The navigator, Lieutenant William Omorai, followed the gangway and climbed into the navigator cabin in front of the B-29 bomber, holding an aeronautical chart in his hand.

Although this was a temporary flight, it was still at night, but he did not have any psychological pressure. They flew more than once on the route from the base to Hawaii. This is already a normal route. Back then, he flew the B-24. At that time, I flew dozens of times back and forth.

He knew that the difficulty was not to reach the island, but how to find the aircraft carrier formation of the island nation. It was too difficult to find the formation in the vast ocean.

Major General Ulf also got into the cabin and sat in the cockpit. He also participated in the bombing.

As if he knew what the navigator was thinking, he said: "On the Pearl Harbor side, all maritime patrol planes have taken off, looking for the island carrier formation."
