Jagged Germany: Chapter 1129 Join the war in advance ask for a monthly ticket

"Your Excellency, the Navy's carrier-based aircraft have also encountered the same problems as the Army Air Force's fighters. The German Navy's carrier-based aircraft, fighters are mainly carrier-based BF-109 fighters. FW-190 fighters Although the carrier type is not yet in service, it is foreseeable that it will be in service soon. At present, our F4F fighter is not even as good as the carrier-based BF-109 fighter, let alone the carrier-based FW-190 Fighter fighters. Once the Navy engages the German Navy, it will put us at a disadvantage!" said Admiral Harold Stark, chief of naval operations.

  The main carrier-based aircraft of the US Navy is the F4F fighter jet, which is a carrier-based aircraft that has just entered service. However, in terms of performance, it is seriously behind the carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy.

  The attack power of an aircraft carrier is mainly reflected in the carrier-based aircraft. If the carrier-based aircraft is not as good as the enemy's carrier-based aircraft, even if the aircraft carrier has the same performance, it will also be at a disadvantage in naval battles.

"Our SBD dive bombers and TBD torpedo attack aircraft are far behind the German Navy's dive warships and torpedo attack aircraft in terms of performance. The carrier-based fighter jets can cover the dive bombers and torpedo attack planes to attack the German ships and sink them. But now it seems that our F4F fighter jets are obviously difficult to complete this task!" Harold? Admiral Stark said.

   "Does the Navy have any follow-up plans?" President Roosevelt asked.

   "The Navy is developing F4U fighter jets. However, there are still many problems that have not been resolved. If we can further increase investment, we may be able to serve F4U fighter jets as soon as possible." Admiral Harold Stark said.

  In another time and space, the F4F of the U.S. Navy was beaten by the islanders’ carrier-based zero battle in the Pacific Ocean, and suffered heavy losses. It wasn't until F4U entered service that it gradually regained its disadvantages. In this time and space, under the threat of the German Navy's carrier-based aircraft, the development of the US Navy's F4U fighter jets was also advanced. It's just that even if the F4U fighter is in service, its performance is comparable to the German Navy's carrier-based BF-109 fighter. Once the carrier-based FW-190 fighter is in service, the F4U fighter is also at a disadvantage.

President Roosevelt nodded: "Gentlemen, the gap in weapons and equipment between us and the Germans is indeed very large, which is shocking. However, it is a good thing for us to discover these gaps now, which can make us When participating in the war, have more advanced weapons and equipment to fight against the Germans.

  The war has begun, and the Germans have shown extremely strong combat effectiveness. This is also a huge threat to us. It is not far from the time when we participate in the war. I hope that in the last period of time, we can seize the time and develop more advanced equipment so that we can defeat the Germans after participating in the war! "

   "Yes, Your Excellency the President!" A group of generals replied one after another.

  Although, the strong combat effectiveness shown by the German army has made the senior military and political officials of the United States feel a lot of pressure. However, they also believe that with the strength of the United States, even if it is not as good as Germany in the war, the gap will not be too big. At that time, relying on the strength of other allies, they are also very likely to defeat Germany.

   "Your Excellency, Russia has suffered heavy losses in the war this time, and they are under great pressure. The Russian special envoy coming to the United States this time may not only want to ask us for help." Hopkins said.

   "What might their other demands be?" asked President Roosevelt.

"We promised Bu Russia that we would join the war two years after the start of the war. That is to say, we will join the war no later than September 1941. But now it seems that Bu Russia can withstand the onslaught of the Germans Two years is still very difficult to say. Therefore, the Russian government may ask us to join the war in advance!" Hopkins said.

"Yes, Your Excellency, there is indeed this possibility. Given the great strength shown by the Germans, I also doubt that Bu Russia can survive the Germans' fierce attack for two years. Even if they can survive for that long Time, but I am afraid that the Germans have already suffered heavy losses, and there is no possibility of posing a threat to the Germans. In that case, we may have to face Germany, which is at its peak. At that time, our pressure will also be It's going to be very big," Secretary Hull said.

President Roosevelt couldn't help frowning. He promised the Russian government to participate in the war within two years after the outbreak of the war. The US government has two purposes. One is to have more time to prepare for the war so that they can prepare More fully, according to the performance of the Germans in the war, carry out targeted development and deployment, so as to gain an advantage in future wars. Another purpose is to make both Germany and Russia lose, so that the United States can win the war at the lowest cost. Thus, ensuring that they can successfully seize the leadership of the world after the war is over.

  But now it seems that the fighting power shown by Germany is too strong, and Bu Russia may not be able to last for two years. In other words, within two years, Russia's power will be exhausted, but it will not be able to consume the power of Germany. In that case, even if the United States personally participates in the war, it may not be able to defeat Germany. At that time, all the plans of the United States may end in failure.

   "Gentlemen, what's your opinion?" President Roosevelt asked.

"Your Excellency, if Bu Russia is really unable to hold on, in addition to providing them with more support, we may have to join the war in advance. While Bu Russia is still strong, attack Germany from another direction. In this case , can make the Germans face the dilemma of fighting on two fronts. Of course, in that case, our losses will be greater. However, the possibility of defeating Germany will be greater." Admiral George Marshall said.

  Other senior military and political officials in the United States also nodded. The United States really wants to wait for Russia and Germany to fight for a lose-lose before participating in the war, so that they can take advantage of it. However, if the United States has no chance of winning if it enters the war two years later, then if the United States wants to win, it must enter the war in advance. Even if you pay a greater loss, you will not hesitate.

   "Let's discuss this issue after the Borussia-Russia special envoy arrives!" President Roosevelt said.
