“GUYS! There's TWO DOZEN uglies bleeding SAINT MOTHERFUCKING ELMO'S FIRE out of their GODLESS EYES and I am NOT equipped to fight underwater contacts! PLEASE ADVISE!”
Stunned silence rolls through the shadowed CIC in the wake of this announcement; the tac-map spinning in your head as the world turns on its axis, re-orienting with the threat on one side and your assets on the other.
The enemy's gate, etc.
“CV-9,” you reply. “Do you have a position fix on the contacts?”
“Uglies?”
“Sure, we'll go with that.”
“Yeah! My strike planes saw them underwater!”
Aircraft can spot the shadow of a submarine at periscope depth, especially in shallow waters with a white sandy bottom. Unfortunately, none of her airborne Corsairs have weapons fuzed to be effective against them.
“Stand by, Essex - we've got an ASW strike inbound!”
“Catalinas!?”
You grin with wicked amusement. “You'll see. Have your Corsairs orbit over the contacts or mark them with tracer fire, okay?”
“Got it! I'll light'em up like a neon sAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH-” she screams as the four F-18s scream overhead at Mach point-nine, getting visuals on the orbiting Corsairs before pitching straight vertical and screaming skyward, vanishing through the light cloud deck in mere seconds.
“W-W-WHAT WERE THOSE!?” CV-9 demands.
“Airplanes,” you reply drolly. The F-18s roll on their backs leisurely, then pull the throttles back against the stops as they arrow down towards the general vicinity of the orbiting navy-blue Corsairs. Goto brings up their cockpit camera feeds in PIP windows one after another, showing the vast blue Pacific rushing up to meet them fast.
“CV-9, have your Corsairs strafe those contacts now!” you command.
The Hornet drivers flip through HUD modes to LGB release mode; locking their LITENING-II pods designators on the tiny patch of ocean the Corsairs flickering orange tracers are licking at. They pickle a pair of bombs each; four fighters engaging four contacts, their near 90-degree dives guaranteeing a near hit even if abyssal interference hinders the laser guidance. You hear the pilots grunting into their mics as they pull out hard, skimming over the waves seconds ahead of their ordinance. The 500 pound bombs are on short contact fuzes; they detonate a fraction of a second after slamming into the water, detonating around 80 feet down, just the right depth to catch a sub at periscope depth beginning a hasty crash-dive. Towering columns of spray climb into the air as the F-18s zoom-climb and loop over the top, lazily taking up station over CV-9.
“W-what,” she stammers, obvious shock in her voice. Kaga winces - she knows exactly what's going through Essex's mind.
“Essex, do your aircraft have a visual on oil slicks, or debris, or anything?”
“Uh, I, uh - let me ask?”
“You do that.”
A pause. “One oil slick, but not very big; I think you just winged that one!”
Why are tripping as NAVY Deme? Is it so he can be first no matter what?
>>44471196
wait, what?
“We're vectoring additional aircraft now,” you reassure her. The tracks of multiple Mitsubishi-built Seahawks are converging on the new, tentative icon just placed by a CIC geek to indicate CV-9s location.
“OH GOD ADMIRAL SHUFFLE THERE'S A LOT OF 'EM!”
The F-18 cockpit cams show worlds in rotation; the HUD ladder whipping by as the horizon flashes past. A spate of soft chimes announce the addition of new surface contacts picked up by the Hornet's radars. Though the cockpit cam (really a gun camera, looking through the HUD) doesn't show it, the Hornets are putting their LITENING pods to work on the new arrivals.
“Sweet Jesus-” one pilot breathes.
“Oh, fuck me,” another opines.
“What does that mean in the Queen's English!?” the task force commander demands.
“Uh, they're...”
“... small,” the second element leader offers. “Even small for a humanoid. Suggest classification as corvettes or torpedo boats.”
A second later the little yellow skunk icons change to red ones, with “MTB” tacked onto their symbols; tentative course tracks showing them closing on Essex at high speed.
“Essex, what's your gun power?”
“Enormous!”
“Details, hun, details!”
“Four five-inchers on each broadside and scads of twin-seventy-sixes!”
Goto raises an eyebrow in query, but you just shrug and mouth “post-war.” The 76mm twin-mounts replaced the Bofors as AA mounts shortly after the war, but you don't know jack about the Essex class's history past that - aside from the numerous massive refits they received over decades of service, the details of which elude your memory.
“-do I do smuttle, almost all my planes are over Iwo already!”
“Wait one, Essex, I've got-”
“ADMIRAL SHUTTLE, *DO* SOMETHING!”
You tune her out to focus on the task force commander. “Sorry commander, please repeat?”
“Those Hornet drivers are begging for permission to engage with guns,” he says. “What's your read on the risk of that?”
“... uh-”
“I don't have all day, Settle. You've got more first-hand experience with this Leveling Effect BS than anyone. What's the risk?”

We don't know what model they are but if we are looking at the worse situation it might be 37mm to 20mm guns.

Two pairs of quad .50s, a 37mm Oldsmobile autocannon on the bow, a 40mm bofors on the fantail, and I'm pretty sure a 20mm tended to sneak in there too.

And considering how you've represented the PT boats thus far, the Corgis match their historical counterparts quite well.
>[X ] Moderate - they're none too accurate but they've got lots of light guns, and the GAU-61 doesn't exactly have a standoff advantage here.

Oh i forgot the 40mm but the thing is from what I remember from documentaries PT boat crews tend to put any gun they can get their hands on so its kind of hard to know at times or at least what we are dealing with.

So, hey, y'all remember the last Nakatime? How Wainwright was draining very cold oil out of her latest wound?
It was 35 degrees, to be precise.
Naka-chan's corpse is currently sitting under 3.6km of water.
At that depth, in theabyssalzone, the water temperature sits between 39 and 35 degrees.
The abyss calling her home might be a bit literal. I'm worried.
>>44471559
What?

Well, for Goto, yes, you are correct. It would be the end of him being single. For everyone else, I would say an over caffeinated Kongou would be it.

>[ ] Moderate - they're none too accurate but they've got lots of light guns, and the GAU-61 doesn't exactly have a standoff advantage here.
Lots of leetle boolets, albeit with little direction, means flying through a spot of lead rain. Not healthy for Hornets, but any damage will be a few lucky holes in the fuselage rather than concerted fire. Unlikely to cause a total loss, but could put a Bug out of the fight that might be needed on Iwo later. They've pickled two of their bombs each already, how many do they have left?
>>44471539
You're not wrong...
If those Commanders knew what was actually deciding this they'd fucking flip.

So if i'm getting this right CV-9 has the 1951 fit out which has 8 5-inchers and 14 twin mounted 76mm
Can anyone tell me about the comparison between the 40mm and the 76mm as a anti-aircraft.
I remember early war ships were equipped with 76mm but shifted to the more rapid fire 20-40mm or am I wrong and also if I am correct what changed?
>>44471243
>[X] High - Hornets are too expensive to risk in strafing runs against boats bristling with light AA, and we don't even know what class or model of boat they are.
Shitloads of light AA + Leveling Effect = Bad News. Their Oerlikon and Bofors mounts could perform like goddamn Phalanx and DARDO mounts, for all we know.
>>44471521
It's an AC/20 with a plane built around it.
Or rather, it's a shitload of external hardpoints with an AC/20 as backup.
Which was my point.
>>44471496
Yes, they did. In fact, PT-109 had embarked a borrowed Army M-4 37mm AT gun on its front deck, with an improvised base made of shipping pallets lashed to the deck only days before its encounter with fate.
INCIDENTALLY, VOTES CALLED
>>44471578
So if somehow her sunken hull was raised back up, her abyssal-fication might stop?
>>44471624
What changes was that the new 76mm were auto targeting with a higher RoF than the Bofors with much longer range.
>>44471578
...

I think it's more likely mental/spiritual- she feels like a dead man walking, so her body is following suit and identifying with her wreck
>>44471624
The 3"/50RF guns had a rate of fire that matched the 40mm Bofors, longer range, and VT fuses. They were specifically designed to counter kamikazes and Fritz-X guided bombs as drop-in replacements for the Bofors (single mounts for Bofors twins, and twin mounts for Bofors quads).
They were BETTER AA guns than the Bofors, amazingly.
>>44471686
Gotta pay those debnts somehow.
>>44471624
>I remember early war ships were equipped with 76mm but shifted to the more rapid fire 20-40mm or am I wrong and also if I am correct what changed?
You qualify as both.
Pre-war/early war there were a bunch of three inch guns, but they were shit. So they decided to use faster firing, lower caliber better guns. Unfortunately, 40mm rounds can't disintegrate kamikaze attacks, so they redid the 76mm guns to fire faster and be accurate with RADAR MASTER RACE.
Well, while we wait for that update then, we can pass some time with this.

>>44471725
Officially, it was to give them some punch for killing barges (which were too shallow for torpedoes, and too big for .50-calibers, and they didn't have the Bofors yet).
In reality, it was Because They Could.
>>44471624
Let me put it this way.
A SINGLE 3"/50 RF gun barrel is the equivalent of EIGHT 40mm Bofors, or two quadruple mounts.
I also shoots further, trains faster and has the most advanced radar fire control system ever designed for an anti-aircraft gun of that type at the time it enters service. It fires a 24 pound VT fused shell roughly every second, for a total of 50 rounds every minute. each shell is capable not only of shooting down an enemy aircraft, but completely destroying it.
And that's just one gun.
Essex has a lot more than one gun.
>>44471578
Starting to wonder if the whole "They tried to send me back" thing Naka mentioned about her summoning might not actually have worked in part. Some of her got sent back. That's why she's had that much more difficulty from the start. (Or is the whole 'not healing right' new and she used to heal okay before?) Would also explain where her Abyssal counterpart comes from; it's 'grown' from what part of her got ripped out and sent back.
The whole trying too hard to be an idol and put up a front could be interpreted as attempting to compensate for the 'missing part' by embracing her humanity harder, not unlike what Iku is doing (in the Shoukek lewds piece posted earlier), but with no satisfactory result in the end.

Personally, I'd launch a probing strike first, commit on a second wave once we see what they can do. There's too much up in the air--the abyssals cheat hard.
The real problem with an A-10 on a carrier isn't take-off or landing - fucker's rugged enough that you could beef up the gear for launch and recovery without too much trouble - it's more the issue of finding space to store that big bitch with its non-folding wings.

>>44471963
Also previously referred to as Admiral Skittles.
>>44472107
How?
>>44472063
There is explicitly magic in the quest though.
And, as pointed out, it's just the fuckers are too big.
Also reeeeeee SB namefags get out
I watch this for two things- good writing, and these flame wars.
>>44471899
>planefag-san
>using japanese suffixes in English
Please stop.
>>44472139
I am probably just going to afk until it is over rather than put up with namefags.

>>44472139
If this sort of "flame war" is what you come here for, I pity you. This is below /v/-tier flaming.
>>44472139
>good writing,
Okay dude, sure.
>>44471945
That was not enjoyable in the least.
>>44472048
They're baiting for reactions, that's all.
>>44472063
Magic is amazing, and an A-10 could indeed (theoretically) be launched from a modern aircraft carrier.
However, as PF pointed out, you still have to fit the damn thing on/in the carrier to deploy it.
>>44472119
Sorry sweet pea, but I ain't Bentus.
Reposting an old classic.
>>44472155
Ever since this was posted to SB, SV, and tvCancer, the quality has dropped dramatically. Same with AGP. Newfags need to lurk moar before posting.
>>44472133
Not to mention SAN loss. The fairies, Shimkaze's turrets, moar faeries, and there's probably going to be atleast some from a summoning.
Hell, it might be SAN loss from the ships. Hamp was summoned forth by Settle's rage, right?
>>44472155
Hey, that's what I do! But replace namefags with role players

Second part.
planefag how many A-10s can fit on a carrier
To be fair, namefagging it up makes me not shitpost as much. But then again...
>>44471968
Naka-chan, Naka-chan, what's the story behind this?
>>44472184
>switching browsers
>using 3g

Put your trip back on Bentus.
>sweet pea
Fuck off.
>>44472257
Do eet
>>44472208
So it's been shitty since thread 1, then.
>>44472234
Probably a third of the original carrier complement, if we're talking about a Nimitz-class.
>>44472163

What are you even doing here, tripfaggot?

Say it ain't so.
>>44472301
He doesn't have a trip, newfag. At this point he's just a namefag. Not as bad, but he should still stop.
>>44472282
It was the /tg/ variety of cancer. Then it sort of festered and became gangrenous.
>>44472163
Oh, you're one of THOSE people who hang around and insist that fap angel is a good-for-nothing who can't write, doesn' plan, and is terrible.
No bully.
>>44472208
deal with it fascist. on 4chan everybody gets freedom, even people you don't like.

>>44472282
It's been shitty since SB/SV showed up, whenever the fuck that was

>this butthurt over namefagging
Have you graduated to the plastic trainer potty or are we still rocking pampers?
>>44472274
And I suppose posting one second after "myself" is part of this nefarious plot as well, honey bunch?
>>44472331
Someone made a page earlier in the year, but it seems to have been neglected since then thankfully
>>44472335
Close enough.
Either way he's cancer.

Oh, it is so.
They're lurking around as well.
You faggots are so slow. We're not even going to reach autosage before the next update.
>>44472301
He's not a tripfag, he's a namefag. See, there's no tripcode.
>>44472363
>>44472208
>AGP
What?
>>44472353
>everybody on 4chan gets freedom
Now that's some serious newfaggotry
>>44472274
Actually, he's quite right. I am not the man who called you sweet pea.
>>44472364
Behold, further proof.
>>44472261
Two halves, in the drink, that's how Naka likes to sink!
>>44472393
You're right.
Like I said to the other anon, though, that doesn't make him any less cancerous.

The other dude's being an obnoxious faggot too, but you strike me as the kind of autist who couldn't casually let go of his identity for that sort of thing.
>>44472281
I know! I want to! I had to deal with people today! I want to shitpost, but I'll wait....I'll let everyone else do it for me!
>>44472353
Let me know when you met the mods for something that has nothing to do with the rules.
>>44472160
>that intro video
that is one of my most favorite things ever. nails the atmosphere *perfectly.*
>>44472331
Someone had posted SWQ to it years ago too.
Hmm something to wonder...we know that there can shipboys....but what about Male Abyssals?
Less shitposting more shipposting.
Have an old-school Nagato.

You're new is showing.
Please keep up to date with the dankest of memes for a quality funposting experience.
I suggest 40mm of /jp/ or /s4s/ anon.

How about this one planefag?

Well, shit.
>>44472410
Bentus, why do you namefag?
You don't write and you don't make art, what purpose does your name serve besides drawing unneeded attention?
COLORADO CLASS >>>>>>>> NAGATO CLASS

Range clock, sleeves, headgear (rangefinders), funnel.
>>44472601
>>44472326
So is it encouraged to rub one out in between posts, or merely allowed? Some of these shipsluts are quality fapbait.Post more fapbait shipgirls.
>>44472476
I'm afraid I wasn't around for SWQ, this is actually the first quest thread I've kept up with.
I don't even know why I like it so much.
>>44472583
It would be extremely painful.
>>44472507
You know, if planefag makes that terror radio vengeance thing from last thread canon. I'm just waiting for someone to 'somehow' find her signal, call her 'abyssal Anne' and start counter broadcasting something like polka or chacaron 24/7.
>>44472636
For you
>>44472591
Bentus is an okay namefag, we can tolerate him.
Direct your hate towards these new namefags.
>>44472544
The outfit. Unless I'm mistaken, I think her outfit replicates her original armament upon launch in 1921.
>>44472583
Some would, undoubtably.
>>44472591
Nostalgia.
We don't even know what Essex CV-9 looks like.
>>44472591
Autism and an inability to give up an identity on an Anonymous image board.
>>44472636
for you
>>44472661
All these namefags and tripfags are equally bad. If you tolerate shit like Bentus, Naka and Navyfag, you might as well tolerate these new ones too.
>>44472665
>Some would, undoubtedly
GET OUT, HOTHEAD. AND NEVER POST AGAIN.
>>44472644
>>44472601
>>44472647
It's an decent way to pass the time.
>>44472671
Actually, CV-9 is on the list for Pacific book 3 last I looked, so he might wait for that to be released.
Or we'll find out before the end of the thread.
>>44472129
>>44471963
In this case it's because Essex doesn't care enough to remember our name.
In Ikazuchi's case it's because she's adorable.
>>44472711
Haha, no
>>44472671
None of the drawfags (or anybody else for that matter) got told about her ahead of time, so there's no art for her like everyone else had.
Its deliberately poor communication on planefags part, although I expect Halley to shit out another poorly traced, empty eyed monstrosity soon enough.
>>44472711
Naka and Navy get a pass because they provide OC.
That's the only reason.
Bentus on the other hand, blogshits, whines, and provides nothing.
Bentus is actually worse than fluffbringer at this point. At least fluffcancer actually writes something, however utter shit it might be.
>>44472647
if you've got that much free time you should open up photoshop and fuel the "A10 is obsolete/F35 will be relevant soon honest/just sling a turret under an osprey" argument
>>44472364
don't make me make a screenshot with every link edited with a (You) after it. I'm too lazy.
>>44472768
Or just draw heather crunch with ship add ons.
>>44472768
>Its deliberately poor communication on planefags part, although I expect Halley to shit out another poorly traced, empty eyed monstrosity soon enough.
Could be worse. Could be a heart-eyed demoness.
>>44472711
>Implying Bentus is as bad as them
>Not liking the content creators
Were you born retarded, or have you been spending time on /v/?
>>44472671
I don't care as long as halley doesn't draw it. All his pictures look the same.
>>44472768
So you're saying that Halley's just gonna take a pic of themself and post it?
>>44472787
120mm-armed Osprey when?
>>44472653
You mean "Abyssal Abby".
>>44472786
>contribute OC
>get a pass to use a trip for non-OC posts
Yeah no. If you accept that, you might as well accept all the other shitty name- and tripfags, because you clearly don't give a shit.
>>44472807
Is there a difference?
>>44472491
here you go
