Seeing the huge roaring sound coming and the black torpedo getting closer and closer, even only a few dozen meters away from him, Nie Cai finally moved.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and he was about to activate the dimensional storage component again, ready to fight again!
But at this moment, a sudden change occurred!
Nie Cai felt a strange light suddenly flash before his eyes, and then, a rumbling sound suddenly sounded.
Balls of bright firelight suddenly shot down from the sea. The firelight was so dense that it poured down like a storm.
He looked closely and found that the firelight quickly extinguished when it hit the bottom of the sea. They were cannonballs!
It is true that the "Buran" is the fastest torpedo in the world, but under such intensive bombardment, several shells still hit its tail, causing its tail to shake suddenly and it could no longer maintain a supercavitation state, the speed dropped sharply.
"Hit? Great!"
Nie Cai's eyes lit up, and he was suddenly overjoyed!
If Nie Cai had researched this weapon, he would know that these flames were the anti-submarine rocket depth bombs on the destroyer.
Anti-submarine rocket depth bombs are composed of warheads, solid rocket motors, etc. The warhead consists of three parts: a metal shell, a fuze and explosives. The fuze is an impact time fuze. The solid rocket motor consists of a combustion chamber, a nozzle, a propellant column and an ignition device. After the propellant column is ignited, high-temperature and high-pressure gunpowder gas is generated, which is ejected from the tail nozzle at high speed. The reaction force generated by the airflow can push the projectile forward. Submarine hunting is generally equipped with 2-4 anti-submarine rocket launchers on the bow deck. The anti-submarine rocket launcher is a cylinder with openings at both ends, and the anti-submarine rocket depth charges are installed in the cylinder. There are many types of anti-submarine rocket launchers, such as 5-tube, 12-tube, and 16-tube. The range can be changed by tilting the gun barrel.
Although, in the modern navy, few warships other than anti-submarine ships are equipped with anti-submarine rocket depth bombs, China is the only exception.
According to the tradition of the Chinese Navy, rocket depth bomb launchers will basically be installed as long as they can be installed on the ship. It is even said that the recent LN aircraft carrier has hit a 12-tube new anti-submarine rocket depth bomb launcher.
In the early 1980s, China developed an improved rocket-type deep bomb launch system based on imitation of Russia's Type 62 rocket-type deep bomb system. The system uses gas lateral splitting technology to reduce axial thrust and improve the rear structure of the engine. Its overall structure is very similar to the Type 62 deep bomb launch system. The projectile is about 1,230 mm long and the projectile diameter is about 250 mm. The charge and projectile weight are basically the same, and the power is also similar. However, this type of depth bomb has many major improvements, and is superior to the Type 62 in many aspects of technical performance. For example, its range is almost twice that of the latter, reaching about 3,000 meters; not only that, it also has two launch ranges. , that is, it can not only shoot at long range (3000 meters), but also can hit underwater targets at close range (about 60 meters), thus significantly expanding its strike range.
Yes, the "Blizzard" torpedo is very fast. People on the warship are usually hit just as soon as they discover it. Ordinary methods are useless against it.
But... after Nie Cai came back again, he warned the people on the ship in advance!
Nie Cai just grabbed an officer casually and asked him to find a way to deal with the torpedoes. He just followed the idea of "knowing destiny and doing everything one can do", but he didn't expect that the officer actually helped him a lot.
"Well done!"
Nie Cai was ecstatic in his heart. He stared at the "Blizzard" torpedo. Seeing the opportunity, he directly activated the dimensional storage component!
The supercavitation state of the "Snowstorm" torpedo was broken, and its speed suddenly dropped. Under the huge resistance of the sea water, it could no longer cause too much trouble to Nie Cai.
This time, the torpedo that had dropped in speed was directly wrapped tightly by the golden light of the dimensional storage component, and then suddenly disappeared into the seawater, leaving only a lot of bubbles in the seawater.
"Success!"
Before Nie Cai had time to be happy, at this moment, he heard the cannon light above his head flash again, and dense anti-submarine rocket depth bombs fell like raindrops again.
This time, the accuracy of the anti-submarine rocket depth bomb was not as good as last time. It was aimed at Nie Cai, forcing Nie Cai to hide directly in the dimensional space...
At the same time, on top of the destroyer.
The Guards officer grabbed the launch handle of the anti-submarine rocket depth charge and fired wildly until all the magazines were fired, then he stopped.
Just now, out of his absolute trust in Nie Cai, he immediately used the rocket depth charge launcher on the ship and fired wildly in the direction Nie Cai pointed, hitting the "Blizzard" torpedo.
His move helped Nie Cai, which also indirectly saved the lives of the entire destroyer!
"Where did the torpedo go? Why did it suddenly disappear?"
At this time, he was suddenly stunned, looking at the white trace that suddenly disappeared under the sea, and said in surprise.
When a torpedo is hit by an anti-submarine rocket depth charge, it will usually be deflected. In rare cases, it will hit the warhead and be directly exploded.
But... this was the first time he had heard of torpedoes suddenly and mysteriously disappearing like this.
"Well done!"
Suddenly, he felt a heavy tap on his shoulder. He looked back subconsciously, only to find a wet person suddenly appeared next to him.
This person was none other than Nie Cai. He came up from the sea and found this officer as soon as possible. He wanted to reward him well.
If this officer hadn't used an anti-submarine rocket launcher to help Nie Cai hit the "Blizzard" torpedo, which greatly slowed down the torpedo, he might not have been able to put the torpedo away.
"I don't know if I hit it or not..."
The officer also recognized Nie Cai at this time and couldn't help but say.
"It's a hit. I'll ask Deputy Chief of Staff Lin to remember your great achievements later."
Nie Cai was in a great mood and said haha.
He patted the officer on the shoulder. At this time, the soldiers on the ship also began to gather.
Under the cover of various weapons of a group of soldiers behind him, Nie Cai slowly walked towards Redel's previous hiding place.
"The torpedoes can't save you this time. You can't run away today!"
Nie Cai snorted and said.
However, there was no movement behind the turret, and Redel did not respond at all.
Nie Cai suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. He walked around and took a look, only to find that there was nothing behind the turret!
"What's going on? When did Redel leave? How could he run away!"
Seeing this, Nie Cai's heart sank and he couldn't help but say in surprise.
Redel was seriously injured and had lost too much blood. He would definitely die if he did not receive treatment.
And in this vast sea, surrounded by Chinese warships, where could he go? I’m afraid I’ll die of exhaustion before I can swim a few kilometers…
