Warship of Great Power

Chapter 1277 You won’t know until you try

The display screen in the cockpit is very large and divided into four parts, one of which displays a digital map. With the help of the Beidou navigation system, they will never get lost.

Four hundred nautical miles, three hundred nautical miles... fifty nautical miles!

What about the goal? According to the original analysis, the target is ahead, but now?

"001 calls 002." Fatih broke the radio silence for the first time: "Have you found the target?"

"Not yet, but it will be soon. I believe the goal is ahead!"

Forty nautical miles, thirty nautical miles... When it was twenty nautical miles away, some light appeared on the sea in the distance!

"Visual detection of target!"

"Attention, prepare to attack!"

"yes!"

On the sea, a fleet was riding the wind and waves, sailing forward.

In the center of this fleet, there is a large warship. The deck of the warship is flat and can be seen to be divided into two parts: the oblique angle and the bow. On the bow side, a whole row of aircraft are parked, and on both sides of the ship island , in the rear, outside those marked areas, there are also a large number of aircraft parked.

The aircraft has a rectangular air intake, twin engines and twin vertical tails, and the vertical tails are outwardly inclined. They are the latest super bugs in service. There are also aircraft with large plates on top, and there are also helicopters.

The deck looked very busy. A Super Big Bug was starting its engine in the parking area and preparing to taxi to the take-off area.

On the ship island, Kepler, the officer on duty, looked at the busy scene on the deck and couldn't help but complain.

"It is very safe here. There is no need for fighter planes to patrol at night. The Mediterranean Sea is our bathtub."

"According to the scheduled plan, we will pass through the Suez Canal tomorrow morning and then enter the Red Sea. It has not been very peaceful there recently. This world... all blames the damn Mingzhou Group!"

Now, there is no one who does not criticize the Mingzhou Group. After all, it is precisely because they are working hard to build aircraft carriers and amphibious ships that allow such super battleships that were originally only owned by superpowers to spread everywhere!

Originally, the top ten aircraft carriers in the world could include Siam's small 10,000-ton ship. Now, even if it is ranked in the top twenty, Siam's can't even make it!

"Yes, that damn Mingzhou Group keeps building aircraft carriers at a very fast speed. We have calculated that almost on average, an aircraft carrier can be built every year. This speed...even we can't compare with it. On average, we can , it’s only been three years since I updated one!”

When it comes to Mingzhou Group, everyone is very angry.

Kepler also had a serious face: "The aircraft carriers they produce have a short cycle and low cost, which others cannot match. If we continue at this rate, we will lose our maritime advantage within ten years. Some time ago, France's The reporter went to the East to report, but I don’t believe that their technology can be so advanced!”

"That's right, intelligence and assembly lines are all nonsense! When it comes to technology, we are the most advanced. When our Ford is put into service..."

At present, their only spiritual sustenance is the Ford. If this aircraft carrier can be put into service... then they can breathe a sigh of relief!

At this moment, a voice came from the radio: "Report, a weak suspicious echo was found on our phased array radar!"

"How weak?"

"It's similar to the echo from a sounding balloon."

"Then what's there to worry about?"

"But it's very fast, like a normal airplane."

"Don't worry, it might be a false signal from the radar." Kepler said, "Don't worry about him. After our escort fighter planes take off, go up and have a look."

Kepler didn't know, he made a big mistake!

On the deck, the super bug has slid to the angled take-off line, and the deck crew is preparing for take-off in an orderly manner. To them, this is just a routine night take-off.

At this time, two stealth aircraft were roaring in the sky!

"The target has been locked!"

"emission!"

Boom, boom!

The hatch opened, and four specially-made bombs fell down, with angular shapes and two swept wings, and began to move towards the target!

At this moment, the phased array radar captured the target again.

"The targets are clearer, and there are two. Please lock the attack... Hey, am I dazzled?"

When the bomb bay door is opened, the stealth shape is destroyed, and the passive phased array radar can of course clearly see it. But just when it is about to enter the lock, the bomb has already gone down, the bomb bay door is closed, and the stealth shape is restored. Got it!

The radar operator stared at the screen, and a faint echo appeared on it again. The two clear echoes just now were completely gone!

if……

If their radar is an active phased array, it can converge the beam better. If their data processing system is more advanced, it can systematically analyze the bright spots that just appeared suddenly. If the radar operators are more vigilant...

Of course, if it is just a hypothesis, it is meaningless and can only be used for subsequent analysis.

The four things had already flown to the target on the sea, but due to their special appearance, they were not discovered and launched the most powerful attack in silence.

At this time, the deck of the big guy below was suddenly filled with gunpowder smoke, and the super-large bug skillfully ejected and took off. The moment it left the deck, the pilot Hax felt that his eyes were getting dark.

It seems that the activities with Black Rose in the pilot's dormitory during the day were a bit too intense, and I will have to exercise restraint in the future.

They need at least 500 female soldiers on their warships. The existence of these female soldiers can allow men to better relieve their stress. After all, wandering on the sea all year round and facing a boring life are likely to have various negative emotions. Female soldiers can reduce this negative emotion.

Of course, how exactly it is done depends on the abilities of the sailors on each aircraft carrier. The pilots are the most sought-after group.

Hux thought as he continued to climb the fighter plane. At this moment, the dark night sky above his head suddenly became brighter.

boom!

Boom boom boom!

Just like setting off fireworks, brilliant flames appeared in the night sky above their heads, and then, countless bright lines fell like shooting stars.

If they weren't alone, and if the explosion wasn't above their heads, they would really have thought someone was setting off fireworks!

"Oh, damn, cluster bombs! Quick, activate the air defense system!" Kepler immediately shouted loudly after seeing the scene outside through the spacious porthole on the island.

In an instant, countless Phalanxes reversed direction and fired violently at the top of their heads, and more gorgeous fireworks bloomed in the dark night sky.

The Searam system also quickly began to launch, and missiles flew into the sky dragging tongues of flame.

However, those missiles equipped with a large number of hanging missiles did not move and made no sound.

"Damn it, why don't the Standard Missiles launch?"

"The target is too small to target."

East.

"Mr. Qin, what are you talking about, cluster bombs hitting surface ships? It has been proven long ago that this is impossible." Zhang Zhong said and stood up from the sofa.

"Surface combatants need large anti-ship missiles with semi-armor-piercing warheads, especially to deal with large targets of 100,000 tons. They need big ones weighing one or two tons, or rely on the kinetic energy of high-speed flight to kill. What are cluster bombs? ? There’s just such a big ball inside each bomb.”

Zhang Zhong said, gesturing with his hands: "The most suitable targets for cluster bombs are ground targets, such as air force bases, radar and missile bases, barracks, warehouses, etc., hitting surface ships? It's just a joke!"

"I saw an introduction that said cluster bomb submunitions dropped from the sky, relying on kinetic energy, can penetrate a steel plate a few tenths of a meter thick."

"Yes, cluster bombs that win by quantity, such as our Tianlei-500, carry five hundred submunitions, each of which can penetrate a 0.14-meter-thick steel plate. Cluster bombs that win by power, such as our Cloud The Arrow-6 can carry six submunitions and can penetrate a 0.3-meter-thick steel plate, but what’s the use of it?”

Zhang Zhong analyzed Qin Tao seriously.

"To deal with surface ships, the most important thing is power! Our heavy-duty anti-ship missiles often carry hundreds of kilograms of explosives inside the warhead. This ensures that after penetrating the steel plate on the surface of the ship, it explodes inside, causing a fire, and then causing the opponent to The internal ammunition exploded. What cluster bombs lack is power. They are not powerful enough when they are gathered together. If they are separated, the power is even lower. It is just a scratch!"

Qin Tao looked at Zhang Zhong with a smile. Zhang Zhong talked for a long time and found that he was too excited, so he sat back down again.

"Mr. Qin, what do you think?"

"I don't know either. There is no real combat example. It can only be said on paper. It would be great if there was a real combat example! By the way, let's discuss next. Can graphite bombs deal with surface ships?"

"This will definitely not work." Zhang Zhong suddenly stood up again: "Graphite bombs are mainly used to deal with transmission lines on land, causing the transmission lines to short-circuit and burn. The cables of surface ships are all inside, and they are tightly wrapped so that water vapor cannot get in. What’s more, it’s graphite filaments.”

"Where's the radar?"

"Radar is also very difficult. If it is a radar in the past era, the antenna is directly exposed to the outside, and it may cause problems after it is covered by graphite filaments. However, today's radars are all covered, and graphite filaments cannot directly interact with the outside. If the radar antenna is in contact, it won’t have much effect.”

Indoor wires are insulated, but those transmission lines on high iron shelves don't need this, because it's not necessary, and the insulation can't insulate tens of thousands of volts of high-voltage lines, as long as there is enough distance.

High-voltage wires are all aluminum wires with steel wires in the middle to provide strength support. These things will be attacked by graphite, but other military facilities? Zhang Zhong felt disgusted.

"Mr. Qin, the plans you proposed are a bit unreasonable."

"Yes, without practical testing, who can know whether it is effective."

"Practice test?" Zhang Zhong finally reacted: "Could it be..."

Brilliant fireworks bloomed in the dark Mediterranean, but they did not last long. Soon, countless steel ball-like things fell from the sky, just like rain.

Most of them fell into the sea. After all, no matter what they were, they were insignificant in front of the ocean. A small number of those that might have fallen on the deck suffered frantic attacks from the Phalanx and Hailam.

At the same time, the warship's nuclear reactor also began to operate at full speed, and the warship began to accelerate. As long as it left quickly, it would be fine.

Boom!

On the ship island, the captain hurriedly opened the door and ran in.

"Kepler, what's going on?"

"The cluster bombs suddenly exploded above our heads. Now, we are seizing the time to leave this ghost place. Thank you to Shangdi, so far, we are safe and sound..."

They don't understand Eastern philosophy, and they can't say anything for sure. Sure enough, the next second, bang!

The terrible sound of the collision passed through the steel plate and reached everyone's ears.

Boom!

A raging fire broke out at the impact site.

"Fortunately, the runway is on fire, and our parking area is safe." Kepler breathed a sigh of relief.

"Damn it, damage control!" The captain gave orders loudly.

Almost at the same time, bang! The second collision sounded, followed by another fire, and then countless people screamed.

The parking area is on fire!

A plane with a big plate on top was smashed through, and a bang explosion sounded. The plane was broken into pieces, the internal fuel was ignited, and the raging fire quickly spread to the surrounding planes!

"Quick, damage control!" The captain was anxious.

"Fortunately, it's just on the deck..."

"Damn it, shut up your crow mouth!" The captain looked at Kepler angrily, what are you talking about?

Bang!

Another submunition hit, and this time, it still didn't break through the high-strength deck, but it hit the wrong place: the port elevator!

It hit the elevator, and at this time, the elevator was on the hangar deck below, so when the submunition exploded, the raging flames whooshed into the hangar!

Now, everyone was dumbfounded.

If there was only one place on fire, they could rescue, but what if there was fire everywhere?

With only three fire sources, damage control was already stretched to the limit, not to mention that the fourth and fifth fires were still burning!

The entire warship was in chaos.

This 100,000-ton warship was experiencing the most terrible threat, and the other warships around it were not much better.

Bang!

When a collision sounded from the front deck of a warship nearby, everyone on the bridge looked over in fear and looked at the collision location, where there were chocolate cubes!

Boom!

Boom boom boom!

There was no need to rescue the warship because the thing under the chocolate cube exploded, and the entire warship immediately broke into two pieces, and then sank rapidly, and the sailors shouted in despair.

Plop, plop! Some people jumped into the water, some with lifebuoys, and some without lifebuoys, but they would definitely die if they stayed, and they might not survive if they jumped in. If they couldn't swim away quickly, the huge whirlpool that appeared when the warship sank would suck everyone else away!

"Damn it, who did this?" On a warship next to him, the captain looked at the sinking warship with a very serious face, his hands clenched into fists, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.

"Oh, look! Oh my God, what is that?"

On another warship nearby, four rectangular antennas were attached to the bridge around the bridge. At this time, these four antennas were like they were cursed, and the surface was actually burning!

Graphite filaments can not only act as conductors to make antennas conductive, but they can also burn!

The Russians' Chernobyl nuclear reactor exploded because the moderator used graphite blocks. Later, the temperature inside the core rose and the graphite blocks caught fire directly, just like a pile of burning coal.

Now, when the floating filaments in the sky covered the four antennas, they immediately burned! Soon, the four antennas became ovens and the flames began to spread inside!

Because this thing has high power and generates a lot of heat, there are heat dissipation holes near the antennas. Now, these heat dissipation holes have become a terrible source of fire!

In the sky, pilot Hakes opened his eyes wide with horror in his eyes.

As an experienced pilot, he has been on the battlefield, dropped many bombs, and killed many enemies, but he never thought that one day his fleet would become like this!

Just a few cluster bombs, how could they have such earth-shattering power?

In fact, there are two cluster bombs and two graphite bombs, but after the graphite bombs exploded, there was no special movement, unlike technical bombs, like flowers scattered by fairies, which is more beautiful.

No matter how much theoretical analysis is done, it is all theoretical. You have to do it to know the actual situation!

Of course, the person who receives this kind of bomb attack is the most uncomfortable.

At this moment, Hakes even felt a sense of despair.

What should he do next? Re-adjust the direction and fly to the nearest military base? Which one should he fly to?

He wanted to fiddle with the display screen in the cockpit, but later, he realized: where did these cluster bombs come from?

This kind of bomb is not a missile, it will not fly by itself, it needs to be thrown, and the distance of the throwing plane will not be too far, and then...

He suddenly judged: It must be those guys 500 nautical miles south of the route, so he had to catch up first to confirm whether it was true or not!

He turned on the afterburner extravagantly. At this moment, he suddenly missed the Tomcat. If it was a Tomcat fighter, it would have entered the supersonic field in a flash, while his Big Bug had to fly slowly. Fortunately, he did not bring bombs, but only air superiority mounts, otherwise, the Big Bug would not be able to fly supersonic at all.

The Big Bug broke through the speed of sound with difficulty, and then continued to accelerate. At the same time, he turned on the airborne radar.

If it was the previous Big Bug, which still used ordinary pulse Doppler radar, perhaps he would still get nothing, but now, the Super Big Bug has been replaced with the advanced AN/APG-79 radar, which is a brand-new active phased array radar!

Soon, a weak echo appeared on his radar screen, and the direction of the echo was exactly the direction he judged!

Damn it, it was them!

Lock on, kill them!

Hakes did not call the rear, because it was useless to call, the people above did not care about him at all, he could only choose by himself, he had to attack without hesitation!

Wait, the echo is too weak, can't lock!

Hakes looked at the display on the screen helplessly, and then looked at his fuel gauge that was rapidly decreasing due to supersonic flight, so he had to give up the pursuit and turn around to fly east.

In short, it's enough to know who the culprit is!
