Over the waters northwest of Yap Island, the carrier-based planes of the island nation's navy that took off in the first wave are approaching. However, the 24 BF-109 fighter jets that took off from Yap Island Airport have also been killed. It is a little after 5 in the morning, and the sky is still gray with low visibility.
The four aircraft carriers of the 2nd Aircraft Carrier Squadron of the Japanese Navy carry a relatively small number of carrier-based aircraft. The "Fengxiang" aircraft carrier with a displacement of less than 10,000 tons only carries 9 Type Zero fighters and 12 Type 97 carrier-based attack aircraft. machine. The "Longxiang" aircraft carrier carried 15 Type Zero fighters and 33 Type 97 carrier-based attack aircraft. The "Canglong" aircraft carrier is the same as the "Flying Dragon" aircraft carrier, equipped with 16 Type Zero fighters, 36 Type 99 carrier-based bombers and 21 Type 97 carrier-based attack aircraft.
In the first round of the attack, they only took off half of the fighters, 28 Type Zero fighters, 36 Type 99 carrier-based bombers and 38 Type 97 carrier-based attack aircraft.
The Zero fighter's low-altitude dogfighting capability is very powerful. However, the German naval aviation has long known this. Therefore, the German naval aviation stationed in the Pacific Ocean, whether it is a carrier-based aircraft pilot or a shore-based pilot, knows how to deal with these Zero fighters. Moreover, many rehearsals have already been carried out.
"Sir, an island country plane has been discovered!" The pilot's voice came from the ears of the squadron leader, Major Nix.
"Report the coordinates and prepare to launch an attack. Brothers, these damned islanders are heading towards our airport. No matter what, they cannot be allowed to blow up our airport. Therefore, their bombers will be the primary target of attack!" Nick ordered Major S.
"Yes, boss!" The other pilots replied one after another.
"The current visibility is insufficient, everyone be careful when attacking, I don't want accidental injuries. Alright, get ready to attack!" Major Nix ordered.
"Yes, the Empire will win!" The pilots shouted one after another, everyone's fighting spirit was high.
A few minutes later, 24 BF-109 fighter jets of the German Navy swooped down from high altitude and attacked the carrier-based aircraft group of the island navy.
"Boom boom boom!"
In order to ensure that the bombers of the island navy can be destroyed in the first round of confrontation, all the fighters of the German Navy used machine guns when attacking.
"Boom! Boom!"
A Type 99 carrier-based bomber was hit by a cannon shell and was blown to pieces on the spot. The scattered debris hit the sea, and the pilot was killed before he could even parachute.
One after another, the carrier-based aircraft of the island nation's navy were hit, and there were clusters of flames in the air.
During this round of attacks by fighter planes of the German Navy, 11 carrier-based planes of the island navy were shot down.
The carrier-based aircraft group of the navy of the island country was also taken aback, and immediately dispersed, just like a flock of frightened birds.
"Baga! We were attacked by the Germans! All Zero fighters, cover the bombers and attack planes, and shoot down the German fighters!" Commander Toichi Taro, the commander of the island nation's carrier fleet, ordered.
The Germans shot down more than a dozen of their carrier-based aircraft in their first attack, which is undoubtedly a relatively large loss.
The Japanese Navy's Type 99 carrier-based bomber and Type 97 carrier-based attack aircraft scattered in all directions. The BF-109 fighter jets of the German Navy are chasing after them. The maximum speed of the Type 99 carrier-based bomber is only 450 kilometers, and the maximum speed of the Type 97 carrier-based attack aircraft is only 370 kilometers. In front of the BF-109 fighter jet, such a speed is undoubtedly as slow as a snail. It is easy to be caught up. If it weren't for the relatively low visibility now, those bombers and attack planes would only be ravaged by the BF-109 fighter jets of the German Navy.
Although, the Type 99 carrier-based bomber also has not weak air combat capability. But that depends on who the opponent is. Facing a world-class advanced fighter like the BF-109 fighter, their strength is simply not enough.
The zero fighters of the island navy launched a frantic pursuit. But unfortunately, the speed of the Zero fighter is not dominant. At the same time, the current visibility is too low, and they have also been greatly affected. It is impossible to prevent the BF-109 fighter jets of the German Navy from shooting down their critical strike aircraft and attack aircraft.
"Damn! The German fighter jets are too fast, we can't catch up at all!"
"Baga, I'm bitten and I can't get rid of it!"
An island country carrier-based aircraft pilot roared in horror. Behind the Type 97 carrier-based attack aircraft he was driving, a BF-109 fighter jet had already bit him tightly.
"Boom boom boom!"
The cannon of the BF-109 fighter jet fired, and several shells roared in, blowing the tail of the Type 97 carrier-based attack aircraft to pieces. Afterwards, the Type 97 carrier-based attack aircraft fell into the sea dragging thick smoke.
During the melee, the BF-109 fighter jets of the German Navy also suffered losses. After all, they targeted the bomber and attack aircraft of the island navy, which inevitably gave the island navy's Type Zero carrier-based aircraft a chance.
But even so, the exchange ratio is enough to make the island navy's carrier-based aircraft units distressed.
Twenty minutes after the battle broke out, the carrier-based aircraft group of the navy of the island country had already flown to Yap Island. At this moment, on the airport on the island, the remaining 24 BF-109 fighter jets are scrambling to take off. The rest of the dive bombers and torpedo attack aircraft moved away first.
Although the German navy tried its best to intercept, the carrier-based aircraft group of the island navy dropped the bomb on the airport on Yap Island.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
A violent explosion sounded on the airport, the control tower was blown down, and the runway was also full of potholes. Although the German Navy's fighter jets were still slaughtering the island navy's carrier-based fleet, they could not stop their attack.
After all, their number is too small, and the attack launched by the navy of the island country is so sudden that they are not prepared at all.
Soon, the second wave of the island navy's fleet also arrived. The addition of new forces has made the destruction of the airport by the island nation's navy faster. Although the fighter jets of the German Navy shot down many carrier-based aircraft of the island navy, they were unable to save the airport. In order to avoid crashing into the sea after running out of fuel, these fighter jets had to fly to the airport in the Caroline Islands.
When the airport on Yap Island was destroyed by the carrier-based aircraft fleet of the island nation's navy, the airport on Barbotuap Island was also attacked by the island nation's navy's carrier-based aircraft fleet. Although the fighter jets of the German Navy that took off from Barbotuap Island also shot down many carrier-based aircraft of the island navy, they still could not stop them in the end, and had to fly to the Caroline Islands to escape.
