今日は坊ノ岬沖海戦の日。
途中で反転して大和たちを見送った松型駆逐艦「榧」については、こちらの拙著で戦歴を纏めています。元乗組員に取材しています。
是非に是非に。

@63E1Yx3F0D4EgHA 画像は第二波で魚雷数本が左舷命中後だと思われますが傾斜も有り、速力も落ちてるみたいで、この段階だと作戦断念しても帰還は無理かも。

@EugenPinak @kantaidoge1999 Furthermore, online automatic translation functions, including AI, are still far too inadequate for us to discuss these kinds of topics.
English

@EugenPinak @kantaidoge1999 This is probably something that many Japanese military enthusiasts don't understand. You might not know it unless you read official Japanese Navy documents. I also think that the crew members of warships at the time didn't fully understand it either.

At it's now _2_ April, we can think about better use of IJN Oyodo and its sistership Niyodo for real 😉

Oyodo-class to carry 6 hight-speed recon E15K Shiun = 紫雲. Seaplane carriers Chitose, Chiyoda, Nisshin could carry some ...

未成に終わった二三七号艦(仁淀)は当初昭和18年3月引き渡し予定で計画されていました。これは最近太和ミュージアムで公開された計画艤装図。搭載機は目的が潜水艦旗艦任務から変更されたためか紫雲ではなくJ7W1-N震電改が予定されていたことが窺えますね。全部嘘です。#エイプリルフール

@EugenPinak @kantaidoge1999 The translation function is no good. It should be "seaFighter," not "seaplanes."
English

@RX2662 @kantaidoge1999 Plans for ALL seaplanes? New seaplanes were to be used only from the land bases?
English

@EugenPinak @kantaidoge1999 The translation function is no good. It should be "seaFighter," not "seaplanes."
English

@EugenPinak @kantaidoge1999 Plans for seaplanes designed after 1940 did not take into account launching from a ship.
English

@kantaidoge1999 @EugenPinak This is a bit of a digression, but perhaps it's not included in the specifications, so it's not being done, but it might be possible if they wanted to do it. However, there haven't been any requests for it.
English

@EugenPinak @RX2662 Due to structural limitations, the A6M2-N couldn't take off using a catapult. In fact, this photo shows the Kamikawa Maru transporting A6M2-Ns.Likewise, the N1K couldn't use a catapult either for the same reason.
English

@EugenPinak @kantaidoge1999 This is just transportation; the A6M2-N will not be launched.
English

@kantaidoge1999 @RX2662 A6M2-N operated from Kamikawa Maru and Kimikawa Manu. Including catapult launches.
See photo of Kamikawa Maru:

@8snt3k @kantaidoge1999 @EugenPinak The bogies have different track gauges, and if they are different, they are not compatible and cannot be "easily" adapted. Furthermore, the differences in gauges were due to specific needs.
English

@RX2662 @kantaidoge1999 @EugenPinak Not very important—the carriage the seaplane sat on in the catapult came in multiple variants and could be easily adapted to other seaplanes. If the Japanese had wanted to use the catapult with more demanding aircraft, they could have simply modified the carriage.
English

@EugenPinak @kantaidoge1999 Unfortunately, the A6M2-N Type 2 Seaplane Fighter also does not have a catapult launch system.
English

@RX2662 @kantaidoge1999 Thank you for clarifications! So for fighter cover this alternate history squadron needs to carry A6M2-N Type 2 seaplane fighters.
English

@kantaidoge1999 @EugenPinak The catapult system at Oyodo uses a special type of rail and is completely incompatible with others.
English

@EugenPinak @RX2662 The reason only ooyodo can launch the E15K Shiun is that it has a different catapult from other seaplane tenders
😄
English

@EugenPinak The seaplane tenders Chitose, Chiyoda, and Nisshin can use the E16A Zuiun for catapult launches. The N1K Kyofu was not designed with catapult launch in mind.
English

@RX2662 But can they carry and launch from catapults E16A Zuiun and N1K Kyofu?
