On the aircraft carrier "Poseidon", the gship of the German Navy''s home fleet, themander of the fleet, Marshal Lütjens, looked a bit unhappy.
The battle is still going on, but the U.S. Navy''s carrier-based aircraft have suffered heavy losses, and they are no longer able to pose any danger to the German Navy''s home fleet. However, the sunken "Apollo" aircraft carrier and the "Aphrodite" aircraft carrier that is already on fire show how much the German Navy''s home fleet has paid in previous battles.
Facing the attack of hundreds of carrier-based aircraft in two batches of the 2nd and 3rd aircraft carrier formations of the US Navy. Even if the air defense fighters of the German Navy''s home fleet fought desperately, they could notpletely prevent the US fleet from attacking the German Navy''s home fleet. Although the German Navy''s fleet anti-aircraft firepower is very powerful, causing the US carrier-based aircraft to pay a heavy price, it still cannot prevent them from paying rtivelyrge casualties.
The "Apollo" aircraft carrier and the "Aphrodite" aircraft carrier are both "Lord God-ss" aircraft carriers, which are the most powerful aircraft carriers currently in service in the German Navy. Now, the "Apollo" aircraft carrier was sunk, and the "Aphrodite" aircraft carrier was severely damaged, causing the local fleet aircraft carrier formation to lose a quarter of itsbat power. Such a loss is undoubtedly a rtivelyrge loss for the German Navy''s home fleet.
"Your Excellency Marshal, the remaining American carrier-based aircraft can no longer pose a great threat to us. Our powerful anti-aircraft firepower is enough to eliminate them all." Lieutenant General Carl Weitzer said.
Marshal Lütjens nodded: "Arrange warships to rescue those crew members who fell into the water. In addition, coordinate the recovery of the carrier aircraft of the ''Apollo'' and ''Aphrodite''."
When one of the two aircraft carriers was sunk and the other was severely damaged, the carrier-based aircraft had tond on the other aircraft carriers respectively.
"Yes, Your Excellency the Marshal." Lieutenant General Carl Witzel replied.
"How is the current battle situation? How many American aircraft carriers have our carrier-based aircraft sunk?" Marshal Lütjens asked.
"Your Excellency Marshal, the current battle situation is very favorable to us. The carrier-based aircraftunched by the aircraft carrier formations of our three major fleets are besieging the aircraft carrier formations of the US Navy. The carrier-based aircraftunched by the aircraft carrier formations of the local fleet alone have already Sank three American aircraft carriers. They are the USS ''Lexington'', ''Saratoga'' and ''Princeton''. Moreover, our carrier-based nes are still continuing to attack, and we will definitely hit them next. Sink more U.S. carriers," Lieutenant General Carl Witzel reported.
When Marshal Lütjens heard such a result, the expression on his face looked much better. Although the "Princeton" aircraft carrier is nothing more than a light aircraft carrier, the "Lexington" aircraft carrier and the "Saratoga" aircraft carrier can be regarded asrge aircraft carriers. What''s more, their fleet continues to attack. It is foreseeable that more American aircraft carriers will be sunk in the future.
"Very well, the soldiers performed very well. It seems that no one can stop our victory in this naval battle!" Marshal Lütjens said.
"Yes, Your Excellency Marshal. Whether it is our aircraft carrier formation or capital ship formation, they have already won the victory. The Americans are destined to lose this naval battle." Lieutenant General Karl Weitzer said.
Marshal Lütjens nodded, although the German navy also suffered a lot of losses in this naval battle. However,pared to the results they obtained, this loss is nothing at all. The German Navy won this naval battle, and it also won the dominance of the Antic Ocean. It can not only ensure the safety of Europe, but also pose a threat to the east coast of the United States. It can even be said that even if the United States participates in this war, it can no longer change the oue of the war. Germany will win this war step by step.
Aboard the aircraft carrier Zeus, the gship of the Antic Fleet, Admiral Rolf Karls is also listening to the report.
The U.S. Navy''s carrier-based aircraft have left, and the German Navy''s Antic Fleet is picking up the pieces. The severely damaged aircraft carriers ''Hestia'' and ''Hera'' are leaving this sea area under the protection of the **** warships. They will return to the shipyard in Germany, where they will stay for several months. After repairs, they will enter the German Navy again.
The first batch of carrier-based aircraft that took off from the aircraft carrier of the Antic Fleet have also begun to return one after another. It''s just that the carrier-based aircraft that took off from the "Hestia" aircraft carrier and the "Hera" aircraft carrier were a little sad after discovering that their aircraft carrier had been severely damaged. They can only obey the arrangement andnd on other aircraft carriers.
The first batch of carrier-based aircraft included a huge fleet of 96 fighter jets, 144 dive bombers and 120 torpedo attack aircraft. However, there are only more than a hundred fighters returning now. The rest of the fighters have all been shot down during the battle. It can be seen how fierce the naval battle they have experienced.
"My God! The loss of the first batch of carrier-based aircraft was too great. More than 60% of the fighters were shot down." Lieutenant General George Friedberg eximed.
"There is no way. They are facing the most powerful air defense fighter group of the U.S. Navy. However, it is precisely because of their sacrifice that our second batch of aircraft groups, as well as the carriers of the Home Fleet and the Mediterranean Fleet The aircraft fleet was able to sessfullyunch an attack on the US fleet. It was able to achieve such a great result. Therefore, their sacrifices are valuable!" Admiral Rolf Karls said.
Seeing such arge loss of carrier-based aircraft troops, he was also very distressed. But he knew that in such arge-scale battle, losses would inevitably ur. In particr, the first batch of carrier-based aircraft groups had to deal with more than 100 air defense fighter jets of the U.S. Navy, so they would naturally pay a greater loss.
"Yes, General. But fortunately, we have won this battle. This time, the Americans will not only lose arge number of aircraft carriers, but also arge number of carrier-based aircraft and pilots. This will make the U.S. The strength of the navy has been severely damaged. It is impossible for them topete with us for sea dominance in the Antic Ocean!" Lieutenant General George Friedberg said.
"Yes, Chief of Staff. Next, we have to start preparing tounch an attack on the maind of the United States. Soon, the mes of war will reach the maind of the United States." Admiral Rolf Carls looked confident.
