Bakuretsu Soko Kubo Kantai 3 (Victory Novels)

[Machine Translation] The Japanese, who had blocked the bombardment of the mainland by U.S. B17s with their new jet propelled bombs and won the battleship duel, also used submarines to bombard Los Angeles on the U.S. mainland. The U.S., meanwhile, decides to seize the Gilbert Islands with an aircraft carrier force led by Spruance, and aims for supremacy in the Central Pacific. The US forces repel the oncoming US battleships by bombing them with multi-purpose aircraft, thunderbolting their submarines, and even sending out F6Fs in attack formations with their jet bombs. The U.S. forces, having lost a number of aircraft carriers, were forced to temporarily withdraw, and both the Japanese and U.S. sides were forced to reorganize their forces. The changing war situation and various speculations intertwine, and finally, the largest and last battle in the history of naval warfare is fought...
