米軍魚雷の不発が少なかった一日

コンバットリプレイは、個々の戦闘の後にレポートが表示されて中断が入る設定で見ています。ところが、昭和17年6月22日のリプレイはレポート表示の中断がなく、最初から最後までノンストップで流れていってしまいました。設定を変更した覚えはないし、preferencesのところを見ても変わった点は見当たらないので、どうしてそうなったのかは不明ですが、この日は気になる戦闘がいくつもあったので、終わるのが待ち遠しい感じでした。
魚雷が命中しても不発ばかりの連合軍の潜水艦の活躍が今日は目立ちました。稚泊海峡ではSS S-47がxAK La Plata Maru(VP 4, tonnage 2375)とxAK Hakodate Maru(VP 4, tonnage 2375)を2隻撃沈。台湾海峡ではSS Grenadierの攻撃でxAK Akasisan Maruに魚雷一本命中。まだ沈没してはいませんが、釜山から香港まで高射砲の部隊を輸送していたTFだったので、
Japanese ground losses: Guns lost 2 (2 destroyed, 0 disabled)
と報告されていました。このGuns lostというのは連合軍側のリポートにも載るんでしょうかね?香港はシンガポールからの燃料・原油・リソースの陸揚げ港(その後、陸路で上海に輸送され、上海から福岡へコンボイで輸送)になっていて船舶の出入りがかなり多くなっています。相手の方は四発爆撃機の使い方が上手なので中国奥地から香港に爆撃して来ることも予想され、その対策として香港に高射砲部隊を移動させました。陸路だと鉄道が武漢までしか通じていなくて時間がかかるので、海上輸送にしてみたのですが、別に急ぐことではなかったので、陸路でも良かったかも知れません。その後、トラックからニューギニアのMadangにサプライを輸送するFast Transport TFがSS Permitに襲撃され、PB Ikunta Maruに魚雷が一本命中。日本側はニューカレドニア南岸でSS RO-67がASW任務についていたと思われるAM Matai(VP 4, tonnage 1105)を撃沈して、一矢報いることができました。それにしても、今日の状況は、昭和18年以降の連合軍の潜水艦の活躍を先取りしている感がありました。
ブナの陥落が目前に迫ってきています。陥落後、規模6の飛行場をすぐに自由に使われるのはしゃくなので、艦砲射撃TFを送り出してありました。いつぞやも書いたと思いますが、やはり自軍の支配下の根拠地を目標とした艦砲射撃TFは、夜陰に紛れて接近して夜が明ける前に離脱するという隠密行動をとってくれず、今日はブナの2ヘクス手前で移動を停止してしまっていました。この状態でポートモレスビーから2波合計で40機のA-24 Bansheeによる空襲がありました。リプレイを見ていると、何発も爆弾が命中して、ダメージを示す煙もみえたので、どんな状態か心配でした。リプレイ終了後にチェックしてみると、BB日向に4発、伊勢に1発1000ポンド爆弾が命中していましたが、日向はSys 2, Flt 1, Eng 0、伊勢はSys 3, Flt 0, Eng 1とかすり傷で済んでいました。戦艦は急降下爆撃機の爆弾を跳ね返してしまうということですが、爆発しさえすればもう少し上部構造にダメージが及んでもいいのかなとは感じます。RA modでは秋月級駆逐艦の配備が早く、この艦砲射撃TFにも霜月を入れてありました。レーダー装備艦を含んだTFが空襲を受けるのは初めてかも知れませんが、今日は2波をそれぞれ23分前と14分前に探知していました。目視よりも少しだけ早く探知できたようです。
セイロン島の南方で、翔鳳をパトロールさせていました。6月21日にGlenがセイロン島に接近する連合軍タンカーコンボイを発見しました。水上砲戦で叩くことを考えて、巡洋艦をセイロン島西岸に分派してみました。もしかすると隣りのヘクスにみえるTFがコンボイなのかも知れませんが、水上戦闘にもちこむことはできませんでした。かえって、このヘクスで今日を終えることになってしまったので、23日にコロンボから英軍の有力な水上艦隊が出て来て、返り討ちにあうことが心配です。翔鳳はセイロン島南東に移動して、九九艦爆の爆撃でASW任務についていたと思われるPG Lawrenceを撃沈しました。このTFの空母は翔鳳一隻で、Mini KBはスラバヤで待機しています。mini KBがセイロン周辺にいると連合軍が誤認して、トレス海峡経由でダーウィンやクーパンに水上艦隊で来襲したりしてくれれば、面白いかなと思っています。
6月19日以来、連合軍はブナでの攻撃を毎日続けて来ました。一昨日くらいからは、いつ陥落してもおかしくないと感じているのですが、今日もまた防衛に成功しました。歩兵聯隊一つと陸戦隊三つが主力ですが、これら歩兵部隊に残っている歩兵分隊はほとんどがdisabledになっていて、AVを保持している部隊は飛行場の整備部隊ばかり。今日の陸戦前には全部のAVを合計しても45しかなく、これでアメリカ軍の2個師団強の部隊と戦闘しているのですから、敗北しないのが不思議です。しかし、防御側ではAV 0のdeviceもAVの算出に含まれることと、地形とforitificationと相手の疲労とが重なって、修正AVは272対127、オッズ比2対1でfortificationが1あるので、防衛で来たわけです。陸戦によりforitificationは0にされてしまいましたが、工兵はそれなりの数がいるのでまた1に戻すことが出来ました。連合軍がブナ飛行場を無傷で手に入れるつもりで爆撃しないでいると、次のターンも防衛できそうです。でも、相手の方も馬鹿ではないですから、明日は港湾爆撃をしてforitificationの強化工事を妨害して来るんじゃないかなと思いますが。
