The Mid-Atlantic gap is a geographical term applied to an undefended area beyond the reach of land-based RAF Coastal Command antisubmarine (A/S) aircraft during the Battle of the Atlantic in the Second World War. It is frequently known as The Black Pit, as well as the Atlantic Gap, Air Gap, Greenland Gap, or just "the Gap". This resulted in heavy merchant shipping losses to U-boats. The gap was eventually closed in May 1943, as growing numbers of VLR Liberators (Very Long Range models) and escort carriers became available, and as basing problems were addressed.

  • La zone centrale de l’Atlantique était l'espace maritime hors de portée des avions de lutte anti sous-marins, basés à terre, aux ordres du Coastal Command durant la bataille de l'Atlantique pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Ayant pris fin en mai 1943, il est connu sous les noms de « Trou noir », ainsi que de « Trou de l'Atlantique », de « Trou du Groenland », ou tout simplement « Le trou ». Il fut le lieu de nombreuses pertes de navires de la marine marchande attaqués par des U-Boote. Le trou fut finalement comblé en mai 1943, alors qu’un nombre croissant de Libérators VLR (modèles à très long rayon d’action) et que des porte-avions d'escorte devinrent disponibles. (fr)
  • 에어갭 전투(Air Gap Battle)는 1939년 9월 3일에서 1940년 5월 8일까지 영국 연방을 비롯한 연합군과 독일군 U보트와 에서 벌인 전투이다. 초기에는 독일군이 우세했으나, 곧 연합군이 대서양 간극에 대한 기술적 해결책을 제시하면서 연합국이 승리하게 되었다. 초기에 영국 왕립 공군의 해안 사령부는 잠수함 격침 공군을 창설했는데, 이 지역은 블랙핏으로 더 잘 알려져있다. 이 지역은 대서양 간극이나 에어갭, 그린란드 간극, 또는 일반적으로 간극이라고도 불렸다. 이 지역에서 수송선단이 독일군에 의해 큰 피해를 입었으나 1943년 5월, B-24 리버레이터의 기술 향상과 호위 선단의 이용가능성이 제기되면서 간극은 닫히게 된다.

  • Celah Atlantik Tengah adalah istilah geografis untuk area yang tidak dijaga dan berada di luar jangkauan dari pesawat yang berpangkalan di darat di bawah anti kapal selam dalam Pertempuran Atlantik selama Perang Dunia Kedua. Wilayah ini punya banyak sebutan seperti: The Black Pit, Celah Atlantik, Celah Udara, Celah Greenland atau hanya "Celah" saja. Hal ini mengakibatkan kerugian besar pada pengiriman pedagang dengan menggunakan U-boat. (in)
  • Met een air gap (gat in het luchtruim) werd tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog, met name tijdens de Slag om de Atlantische Oceaan, door de geallieerden een gebied boven zee bedoeld, waar de luchtmacht niet kon komen om schepen bescherming tegen aanvallen van Duitse onderzeeërs te bieden. Een soortgelijke air gap bestond in de buurt van de Azoren en de Canarische Eilanden, waar konvooien uit Sierra Leone en Gibraltar, die in noordelijke richting voeren, buiten bereik van de luchtdekking waren.
