There are no military satellites in this era. In fact, the luck of all maritime operations is very large. Of course, if your reconnaissance level can be improved, the luck will be reduced a lot. The basic combat mode is that each warship releases its own reconnaissance aircraft, which are carried by aircraft carriers, and heavy cruisers also carry water reconnaissance aircraft. Some reconnaissance aircraft must be released in all directions of the entire fleet. They will fly hundreds of kilometers. If you can discover the target earlier, you can basically avoid the fate of being killed, and even let the planes on your aircraft carrier bomb people.

This was the original method of naval warfare in World War II. However, in this society, due to the arrival of Mao Yuanshan, aircraft carriers have not yet started to be used. Most people put their hopes on battleships, and they still think that like in World War I, the improvement of aircraft is far less advanced than in World War II. Most carrier-based aircraft did not increase much compared to the early stages of World War II, because people have focused their energy on battleships, including the Americans, and have begun to favor battleships.

When Zhenyuan and Dingyuan threatened Japan, this situation could be said to have reached its climax. The people and soldiers of countries around the world did not see the role of aircraft carriers, but instead saw the role of battleships. The two huge battleships made a medium-sized country like Japan surrender. If there were more such battleships, could they threaten and surrender to the powerful countries in the world?

General Halsey is a barbarian in the US Pacific Fleet. During the Battle of Pearl Harbor, this guy was very successful, so he was sent to Southeast Asia to serve as the commander of this naval operation. When General MacArthur grabbed her hand and told her for a long time that he must open this route. If this route is not opened, then there is no need to talk about counterattacking the Philippines. He must have his own territory in Southeast Asia.

The battleship under your feet is not the latest American battleship, but the North Carolina-class battleship.

This is a battleship built by the Americans in 1937. It is a battleship that was at the end of World War I and the beginning of World War II. It has a full load displacement of more than 46,000 tons, a triple-mounted artillery with a main gun of 406 mm and a 127 mm artillery, with a number of up to 20.

Because there are no successful examples of aircraft attacking warships, the air defense weapons on warships are not very developed, but for a battleship, air defense weapons are necessary.

There are 16 anti-aircraft guns on the warship with a speed of 28 knots, which is enough for the time being, but in today's society, it is somewhat insufficient.

In fact, the Americans were unwilling to let such an outdated warship serve as their flagship, but what could they do? During the Battle of Pearl Harbor, all South Dakota-class battleships were sunk, and the remaining one was towed back to the military port, and there was no value for maintenance.

Although some American battleships have already started on the ship platform, such things are directly involved in war without long-term debugging. They are irresponsible to their own army. Not to mention annihilation of the enemy, it is very likely that this thing will send their people to the bottom of the sea. This is different from destroyers. Things like destroyers can compress their sea test cycles. The things on the battleship are too huge. Everything needs to be energized. Even if it is such a thing under the wartime system, if you want to gain combat effectiveness, you must have more than half a year.

However, this time the Americans were also full of confidence, mainly because they got news from the Chinese that the Japanese battleships were all Nagamon-class battleships, and there were no Yamato-class battleships. Once the Japanese devils' Yamato-class battleships were in service, these battleships of the US Navy would not be able to match them. Only the Chinese Dingyuan and Zhenyuan were their opponents. Of course, the Americans wanted to buy these two types of warships, but the Chinese never let it go.

This kind of thing is now a strategic weapon, and it is impossible to export. Even if it can be exported, it is absolutely impossible to sell it to the Americans, because both sides know that in the war for the final control of the world, any point may tilt the balance.

"Report to General, the weather at sea is in good condition, and we have already contacted the Chinese airships. They sent us a telegram ten minutes ago. Nothing happened within two hundred kilometers around us, and there was no expectation that we were about to meet Japanese warships." Every time we fought, General Halsey did not like to stay in his command room, but instead liked to stay on the deck. Because the feeling of the sea breeze could calm him down, the other staff members could only go to this place to report to him.

"The Chinese cannot fully believe the information provided to us, just as a reference! According to the usual reconnaissance strategy of our fleet, all reconnaissance aircraft must be sent out. No one knows where the Japanese devils will appear. The Japanese have caused us Americans to be miserable enough and must not be taken lightly." It is different to ordinary American military advisers. General Halsey never believed the Chinese. In his impression, these Chinese are very cunning now, especially when they assisted in defense of their base, they did not inform the Americans of allegations, which is a kind of disbelief of their allies.

In fact, Americans have some thoughts. They want to obtain some parameters of Chinese submarines through this cooperation. Since the Chinese submarines arrived in Europe, their losses have been rising sharply. If there is no breakthrough here, the number of American merchant ships will still decline sharply. Chinese submarines are not on the same level as German submarines. Originally, they thought that German submarines were the most difficult in the world, but when they compared them with Chinese submarines, they felt that German submarines were too friendly, and Chinese submarines did not know how they developed, but they actually surpassed their teachers.
