2455 silly

As a qualified member of the foreign military investigation group, Major General Karls must not tell the Americans how the Germans used their troops to deal with the Allies. Because the United States is not Germany, and Britain and France are not Japan, there are huge differences between them. The Germans fought large-scale field battles, and the trench battles and breakthrough battles derived from them. The troops are dominated by heavy firepower and heavy armor. But the Americans don't need it. They are fighting island capture and jungle wars. Japan's industry is also far behind that of Britain and France. Therefore, a correct model should be that Major General Karls should base on the existing equipment and establishment of the US military to help Americans find ways.

Therefore, what Marshall said makes sense. But Major General Karls was right. The Americans only considered Japan's industry and existing equipment, but they underestimated the British assistance to Japan. Actually, think about it, on this plane, the peak of the British first-line army is more than 2 million! (Not only on the Western Front, but also the British army in the Mediterranean.) If you consider the British forces in the colonies, the size of this army is already quite large, and there are not even that many British forces in World War II.

Even if only a little of the equipment of these troops is leaked to Japan, it is enough for the Japanese to arm more than 10 divisions. If you know that there are 2 million troops, it does not mean that the equipment is only enough to equip 2 million people! Therefore, the Japanese did not need to produce much army equipment at all. As long as they had money, a large amount of the British army's surplus materials would be enough for the Japanese army to finish the Pacific War.

Of course, fighting this matter is not enough. The Germans always look at the US military exercises and battalion-level infantry tactics. The tactical exercise mainly consists of two parts, one part is the landing of troops. The other part is naturally that the complex terrain breaks through the enemy's direction. In the landing operation, the performance of the US Navy surprised the Germans.

"With the progress of history, all military technology is developing. The army has changed from a simple rifle and field artillery. It has now become a tank-weighted gun. Naval battles have changed from two-dimensional to three-dimensional, and submarines have allowed the war to spread underwater. And aircraft carriers The emergence of ”allows us to attack our opponents from the air. All this is only a matter of decades. But I have to say that the mode of landing warfare has not changed in nearly a hundred years. The environment of landing warfare has changed. , The previous combat methods are no longer suitable for the current landing operations, and the United States of America will be the leader of this change." Marshall said to the German delegation who just boarded the Hawaiian amphibious carrier.

"As the army's equipment becomes heavier, and the defense of the defenders increases. We are now facing a problem, that is, how to send a large number of troops and weapons from the sea to the beach under the enemy's rain of bullets! The previous boat landing! It has now been proven to be a failure. Even with super fire cover, we still cannot completely eradicate the enemy’s defenses with artillery alone. Infantry, artillery and tanks are the ultimate solution to everything. These personnel and weapons Transporting from the homeland to the edge of the battlefield, and then transporting it from the edge of the battlefield to the beachhead into the battle is all the problems we need to solve!" Marshall introduced.

"The United States has spent at least 6 years studying this problem, and now, I can proudly say that we have solved more than 90% of the problems. No country in the world is more proficient in landing operations than the United States! And this Hawaiian ship The amphibious transport ship and the heavy equipment landing ship Guam and the flying fish landing craft next to it are the core of the United States’ landing operations system!"

"The tonnage of the Hawaiian amphibious carrier is not large, with a standard displacement of only 5,000 tons. He is the transfer station for the entire landing operation. It is complicated to transport a large number of vehicles and personnel to the landing departure position. This kind of maritime material transfer is not too magical. After all, during the Russo-Japanese War, the Russians could transfer more than 100 tons of coal on a battleship within an hour. The real difficulty lies in the seaworthiness of the ship. For example, it is impossible for us to get a landing craft of tens of tons directly from Pearl Harbor goes to the Bismarck Islands.” Major General Marshall said, and took the German group to the interior of the Hawaiian amphibious carrier.

"This is the main deck, which is used to stack various materials. Next to it is a crane. These are very common things. Don't say anything. The real core of this ship is designed in the lower vehicle compartment and the front of the hull can be opened. In the vehicle compartment under the hull, the landing door controlled by a winch at the front of the hull opened suddenly, and the bright and salty sea breeze poured into the compartment. Then, a pedal was lowered in front of the hull. The department formed a slope. Behind the delegation is a landing craft 12 meters long and 6 meters wide.

"Once the battle begins, the landing craft will slide down the **** from the front door of the hull into the sea. This flying fish landing craft can carry two squads of soldiers and the ammunition and supplies they need. At the front, we added bulletproof to the landing craft. Steel plate, used to resist bullets and shrapnel attacks. Their draft is very shallow, and they are flat-bottomed boats, which are suitable for maneuvering offshore. After approaching, there is a pedal at the front of the landing craft. The personnel can quickly land along the pedal and then go into battle Afterwards, this landing craft can quickly turn and take advantage of its shallow draft to quickly return to transport the second wave of soldiers." Marshall said.

"A Hawaiian-class landing ship can transport at least 4 flying fish landing craft~lightnovelpub.net~ In actual combat, the Hawaiian landing transport ship will be outside the enemy’s fire strike range and is very safe. It is the transit center of the entire landing battle. , We call the stage of the soldiers from the landing transport ship to the landing craft transfer." Marshall said.

"Very good shooting, but this design of adding pedals or opening the hatch at the front was also used in this war. For example, the British did it like this. In order to adapt to the Pacific environment, your country specially got a landing craft transport ship. , Very thoughtful, and also a certain degree of groundbreaking. And setting up the transfer link in the middle has indeed reduced the possibility of the landing troops being ambushed by the opponent's fire. After all, before launching the final assault, the landing transport ships were at a safe distance." General Calipute said.

"But there is a problem I want to know. We came here from the upper deck. I have observed the width of the deck and it does not seem to change much. In other words, our ship should be a punt, so good, now the problem is The full load displacement of this ship is very large. And the hull draft is limited. How does your country solve the stability when sailing. If you analyze your country’s data, the center of gravity after full load is a bit high. And your country will be in the future. Fight in the Pacific, not in the Mediterranean." The general said.
