Enterprise aircraft carrier.
The exercise is not divided into day and night. Especially at night, night flight training can be carried out. On the deck of the Enterprise aircraft carrier, pilots with night take-off and landing capabilities are driving fighter jets to take off from the aircraft carrier. For them, Landing is the biggest challenge.
From the bridge, you can clearly see everything below, and at this time, General Morris, who is in charge of the exercise, holds the report from the Kitty Hawk in his hand, which is simply dumbfounding.
The squadron leader of the 111th Fighter Squadron, Major Nathan, suggested carrying a special bomb to carry out a simulated attack on the Soviet ships and successfully repel them.
The weight of this report is too heavy. Nathan, didn’t he play enough with the Soviets in the sky over Vietnam? Now you still want to take the U.S. Navy on the way to the dead
Over Vietnam, there are powerful Vietnamese fighter jets. In fact, some of those MiGs are Soviets. Both the United States and the Soviet Union are tacitly aware.
It used to be a war, but now it's just an exercise. Once there is any mistake, for example, if your own Tomcat fighter is shot down by the opponent's warship, it will bring terrible consequences.
It can be said that the two sides are fighting on the ocean, even if the hull collides, it can be interpreted as an accident, but if a weapon is used, the nature is different.
The commander of an aircraft carrier needs to understand not only the military but also politics, and this is especially true for the senior navy officials.
Therefore, Morris approved the word against it on the document, which is absolutely impossible to pass.
Tomorrow, the Soviets’ warships will come and make trouble. It is destined to be another open and secret battle! Morris thought secretly in his heart, listening to the roar of jets outside, another fighter took off.
It was a calm night. In the second half of the night, the night training was over. On the distant sea, two Soviet warships were sailing forward at a speed of 25 knots.
When the night faded, a red sun appeared on the sea in the east. It was first hidden under the sea level in the distance, and slowly rose upwards, illuminating the entire sea surface with the fiery red sunrise, turning it into a blood red. .
Due to the curvature of the earth, the target aircraft carrier battle group is still invisible, but a reconnaissance satellite will pass overhead in half an hour, giving the Soviet warship a clear direction.
In fact, even if the reconnaissance satellites are very advanced and can distinguish the sea surface clearly, it is difficult to find the aircraft carrier formation on the sea. This is similar to finding a needle in a haystack. However, the Americans do not make turtles with their heads. They have delineated the sea area for the exercise. , Will definitely stay there. If you sneak away because the Soviet warship is coming, it will definitely make the Soviet navy laugh.
The sun rose slowly, and the sun filled the entire surface of the sea, bathed in golden sunlight, and Kucherov was in a pretty good mood.
"Report to the captain, the call from the Vladivostok base, the reconnaissance satellite has confirmed that the US fleet is still in the target waters."
After receiving this report, Kucherov was even more pleased: "Call back Vladivostok. We will break into the US aircraft carrier battle group at noon, and we will exercise with the US aircraft carrier formation."
The old Maozi of this era is arrogant.
The Kenda-class guided missile cruiser uses a power system composed of four kvn9564 steam turbines and two tv12 steam turbines, with a total power of 90,000 horsepower, driving a warship of several thousand tons, and a design speed of up to 35 knots per hour.
However, since serving in the 1960s, more than ten years have passed. The barbaric operations have caused this warship to suffer some internal injuries. Now, even with full force, it can only reach a speed of 25 knots.
No need to enter the dock for maintenance, new warships will soon be built to replace them.
Thinking of this, Kucherov looked at the Kashin-class destroyer, which was not far away. This is the latest service. It is powered by a gas turbine. The sound is particularly pleasant to hear. It starts quickly and accelerates quickly. If it hadn't been for the Admiral Fujin, it would have arrived earlier.
"The report shows that the radar has found two flying targets. The altitude is 10,000 and the speed is 900."
The two flying targets must be the carrier-based aircraft taken off by the American aircraft carrier formation. A protective circle is formed on the outside of the aircraft carrier. Now it is not a state of war. This is the international waters. What are you afraid of
"The wave ship-to-air missile system is activated. If it dares to carry out a simulated attack on us, lock it on." Kucherov said.
As a guided missile cruiser, the Kenda-class equipment is still very complete. In terms of air defense, it uses a set of m1 "wave" ship-to-air missile system with a zif101 twin-mounted launcher. The system is equipped with a total of 16 v600 types. NATO codenamed san1 "Little Antelope" ship-to-air missile. The prototype of this "wave" missile is the land-based sa3, which has a length of 6.7 meters, a diameter of 0.7 meters, a wingspan of 1.5 meters, and a range of 31.5 kilometers.
In other words, if the opponent dares to provoke, he can kill the opponent 20 kilometers away. At the same time, because it is not a real battlefield after all, even if the opponent is provocative, he must come to fly over his head. Kind of tricks, at this time, you can use your own radar to lock it to tell it, can you get off? Fire if you don't get out!
"Understood." The soldier who operated the missile in front replied loudly. The missile system was activated, and the dual-mounted launcher began to rotate, toward the incoming target, ready to go.
The radar antenna on the top is also releasing electromagnetic waves, ready to lock the opponent at any time.
Fortunately, the other party didn't make any movement, and drew a beautiful arc from the sky, and flew away.
Kucherov’s face was full of joy. He took the intercom to remind the Kashin-class destroyer accompanying him to pay attention to the threat above his head, and then move on!
At the same time, the U.S. aircraft carrier formation also received a report from the patrolling fighter plane. On the sea, two targets are approaching. It is expected that they will enter visual contact in two hours!
"It would be great if we had battleships." General Morris suddenly said that after World War II, the battleships were all in a sealed state. The era of naval guns has passed. Airplanes and missiles replaced huge-caliber ships. gun.
However, in this kind of confrontation at sea, battleships should be better. If you have battleships on your side, turn your turret over and aim your muzzle at the opponent, and see if the opponent dares to come over!
If you dare, hit it with a battleship! It must be able to directly knock the other side down, and the two sides will engage in a diplomatic fight, but in the end it won't stop. That's so exciting!
such a pity.
Even General Morris was a little helpless: "Attention, pay attention to the formation, keep the formation." (End of this chapter)
