Chapter 1350 460 naval gun salvos

Now, the specific location of the other party's turret is still a mystery. Only knowing the approximate location can't be found accurately.

Therefore, it seemed a bit too early to open fire at this time, but of course Fredberg would not do useless work. The main task of this shelling was to give the opponent a critical strike. At such a long distance, he did not have the confidence to hit the opponent's turret directly, even if he knew the location accurately, it would be useless.

Sixty nautical miles away, hit the turret of the opponent's shore defense gun? This is not a military statement. It can hit it just by hitting it. This is beyond the error range of the naval gun. In later generations, long-range rocket extended-range missiles were all equipped with guidance systems.

If you want to hit it accurately, the Stuttgart would need to be about twenty kilometers before his gunners would have the confidence to hit the opponent's turret directly. Now that he is allowed to fire from sixty nautical miles away, it is clear that firepower suppresses similar things.

Then what are you waiting for? Open the fire!

On one side of the bridge, the calibrator plane took off quickly, but its effect was actually not great. If the opponent's shore defense cannon fired and counterattacked, he could provide calibrator. If the opponent continued to be a turtle, it was just an observation point of bullets.

The entire warship is a huge combat machine, now moving quickly.

At the bottom of the turret, a semi-automatic loading system sent the warhead and launching medicine to the bullet-transportation track one after another, and then stuffed it into the barrel. The entire shooting command room was buzzing, and the mechanical shooting commander began to calculate the ballistics.

Although Germany has successfully developed a computer, it is still the most primitive. It is difficult to load it on a warship before the circuit components continue to be miniaturized. If you want to use a computer to solve the ballistic, Germany still needs some way to go.

The mechanical one further demonstrates the smart brain of the technician. After more than ten minutes of calculation, the target's shooting elements had been determined. Then, the nearly three thousand tons of turret slowly turned.

The Stuttgart has nine 460mm naval guns, two turrets on the head, and three-unit.

If it does not change its course, it can only use the six guns on the bow of its ship, which cannot make Fredberg happy.

"The left full rudder."

With Fredberg's order, the huge hull slowly moved its huge body, turning ninety degrees, and all the naval guns turned to their side.

If we only want to increase firepower, the Stuttgart's displacement of 70,000 tons will be fine even if it is a 600mm naval gun. However, the final caliber is set to 460mm for many reasons, such as avoiding a new arms race and stimulating the United States. For example, in this case, the naval gun can be fired with confidence and boldly on the side, without worrying about the strong recoil overturning its hull. If it is a 600mm naval gun, Fredberg will never dare to do this.

The nine cannons, with an elevation of forty degrees, looked like they were firing into the sky.

"Turt No. 1 is ready."

"Turt No. 2 is ready."

"Turt No. 3 is ready."

"The school shooting plane is in place."

"Fire!" With Fredberg's order, the gunners pressed their fingers hard on the firing button.

"Boom!" More than 400 kilograms of launching medicine were ignited and burned violently in a short period of time, producing hot, high-temperature and high-pressure gas. Driven by this gas, more than one ton of warheads were almost instantly pushed to a velocity of 785 meters per second. The side walls of the naval gun were also under high pressure of 32 kilograms per square millimeter.

Only high-quality steel made of electroslag remelting steel can such high-bridge can be made.

(The Type 91 460mm armor-piercing projectile of the Yamato ship's 460mm cannon weighs 1,460 kg. Does this refer to the weight of the warhead or the weight of the launching medicine package? I would like to know and solve the problem.)

Almost at the moment of firing, the warhead was out of the borehole, and a hot flame emerged from the muzzle. The flame expanded rapidly. In a blink of an eye, a huge flame enveloped the entire sea surface. The volume of the scattered was almost as large as five battleships. Even the nearby seawater was driven to spread by strong airflow, and at the same time, the ones under the flame began to evaporate rapidly.

Under the huge reaction force, the battleship was pushed several meters to the left, and the hull was blooming in the sea water, forming a rolling wave.

Every time the naval gun is fired, it is so shocking. As a commander of a battleship, this moment is his most exciting moment, which makes people feel excited.

The shells that were released quickly climbed up at a speed of 785 meters per second. Just over ten seconds after the muzzle exit, a hot flame suddenly emerged from its tail, and the rocket booster attached to the rear of the warhead ignited! It pushed the warhead, continued to climb, and accelerated.

The school-firing plane flew smoothly in the sky, observing the quiet land in the distance, where the Soviet forts were hidden, but unfortunately they had never been found.

A few highlights appeared far in the horizon, and those highlights flew quickly towards the coastline of Sevastopol at three times the speed of sound!

In this case, it is impossible for the sound to come first, unless the shells fly over the head, you can hear the terrifying whistle.

For example, the current squad leader of the anti-aircraft artillery squad felt uncomfortable in his ears. He immediately raised his head, with surprise in his eyes, and watched the shells fly over his head, and then, about three kilometers away from him, touched the ground.

"boom!"

The moment it landed, a huge explosion sounded like this, the earth was trembling, and the 85mm anti-aircraft cannon was shaken and moved half a meter away.

At the bounce point in the distance, gravel splashed more than ten meters high, forming a terrible earth wall, with smoke and dust everywhere.

How powerful is the 460mm naval gun? It can be simply measured by a football field. The explosion range of a single shot is enough to affect the size of a football field.

At the explosion point, a large pit more than 6 meters deep appeared. The edge of the pit was more than one meter high. If a cover was added, it would be enough to form a good bunker position.

However, no one was interested in it. This was the roar of death. The German's large-caliber naval gun actually started shooting at our side!

The naval guns were fired in a volley, but the shells were flying in the air, which may have some differences, resulting in a difference in the morning and evening of landing. However, it will not exceed one second, and the explosion of nine huge 460mm grenades caused a small earthquake to the entire position.
