夜袭舰队顺利抵达马金岛外海,与盟军2艘重巡领航的舰队遭遇,从战报可以看出,今夜月光度极低,能见度只有8000码,盟军舰队发挥了雷达优势,在9000码的距离,见势不妙的盟军舰队主动全速溃退,脱离战场,蝗军没能发动任何攻击,到嘴的肉就这么飞了~~

川内编队在炮击完成后,返航途中与盟军夜间溃退的重巡编队遭遇,一阵互殴后,蝗军未能发挥鱼雷战特长,各自无心恋战,纷纷退去,马金岛夜袭战就此战罢。0 g) S* W+ Q1 ?4 x. ]% h8 Z

本战总结与检讨,虽然战斗规模不大,但意义深远。大本营认识到,43年开始,随着盟军水面舰艇雷达的普遍列装,蝗军舰队擅长的肉眼夜间作战能力已经逐渐失去意义,海战模式已经发生了翻天覆地的变化,天蝗已经责成帝国科研部队迅速研究先进的电探,以应对即将到来的海战威胁,依托水面舰队主动寻战盟军舰队今后已经不再可行。 |
