昭和17年2月27日、アンダマン諸島北西でBB長門のTFが xAKL Wosangを撃沈しました。昨日、アンダマン諸島の北端のヘクスでみかけた連合軍TFはこのxAKLだったようです。軽く一蹴したのは良かったのですが、DD五月雨とDD江風が衝突してしまいました。DD五月雨はSys 1, Flt 40(40), Eng 30(24)と、沈むことはないでしょうが大きなダメージを受けています。被害の大きさから見て、江風が五月雨の横っ腹にぶつかったんだと思います。下手人の江風には五月雨をシンガポールまで護衛してもらうことにしました。
OPERATIONAL REPORT FOR Feb 27, 42
DD Samidare collides with DD Kawakaze at 46 , 54
先日読んだCollisions...というスレでは衝突しやすい条件が検討されていました。それによると
- TFに含まれる艦船の数。数が多いほど衝突が起きやすくなる。
- TFの速度。最高速度だと衝突の起きる確率が高くなる。
- TFの行動。ある地点から別の地点まで貨物をゆっくり運ぶTFよりも、戦闘に従事しているTFの方に衝突が起きやすい。
- ランダムな要素。
なのだそうです。このTFは戦艦1、重巡洋艦3、駆逐艦6の水上戦闘TFとしては標準的な数でした。また戦闘に従事したのはたしかですが、xAKL一隻相手の戦闘であたふたして衝突しちゃうのは困ったものです。
空挺降下の前にまずはバンコクから爆撃を実施。85機のKi-21-IIa Sallyの爆撃で死傷者312名。うちわけはSquads: 6 destroyed, 25 disabled、Non Combat: 7 destroyed, 35 disabled、Guns lost 16 (2 destroyed, 14 disabled)、Vehicles lost 24 (7 destroyed, 17 disabled)とかなりの被害を与えることができました。これならやれるかなと思いましたが、修正オッズは3対29で惨敗。敗因としては、連合軍側には工兵ばかりではなく4th Burma Rifles Battalionという歩兵部隊が配備されていたこと、鉄道で移動しようとしていたのは連合軍の4部隊の中の1部隊だけだったこと、空挺部隊はポートブレアにprepしてあって急に思い立ったペグー攻略には向いていなかったことなどで、やはり無理筋だったようです。しかしこの1st Raiding Rgtはダメージを受けてSquadsが10分隊disabledになりましたが、destroyedになったものは一つもなし。このまま数ターンここで耐えてくれればラングーン攻略後に援軍がやってくるという「遠すぎた橋」状態です。ラングーンに上陸した部隊に機甲部隊は含まれていませんが、はたして間に合うのかどうか。
