Warship of Great Power
Chapter 1289 Exercise Phase 3
This exercise is of great significance. How many years have we waited for this exercise? Everyone is full of energy and hopes to achieve the most outstanding results in this exercise.
The night is diffused, but the Marines all wear night vision goggles on their helmets. Most people wear binoculars, and officers above the squad leader wear quadruple vision goggles. No matter how dark the night is, they can observe the surrounding situation like daytime.
The propellers on both sides rotated, and with the roar of the engine, the Z-30 pulled up from the deck and took off into the air. After flying to a certain height, the propellers on both sides slowly turned forward, turning from the vertical take-off and landing stage to the level flight stage. This posture change is very handsome, and people can't help but want to praise it. This is our most advanced aircraft!
"I heard that the American Osprey has been finalized and put into service, but American soldiers just don't want to ride it. They would rather ride the Black Hawk than the Osprey. The crash rate of that thing is too high!"
"That's right, the overall rotating engine sounds unreliable. I don't know what the Americans think. Look at us, how easy it is to directly rotate the propeller!"
Perhaps to relieve the tension, the soldiers on the Z-30 began to discuss.
The Americans were the first to play with tilt-rotor aircraft, but after playing for decades, they have not played maturely because there is a biggest problem that cannot be solved: reliability.
The weight of the engine is very large. The AE1107C turboshaft engine used in the Osprey can output 6,000 horsepower, which is quite powerful. At the same time, its own weight is also 495 kilograms, which is half a ton.
Is it easy to make this big guy rotate?
Look at us, only rotating the propeller, the whole set of equipment will not exceed 100 kilograms, which will rotate faster. At the same time, the emergency response capability will be faster, and it will be easier to adjust the attitude according to the sudden change of airflow to ensure safety.
"Our technology in the East is the most advanced!"
"Fuck!" At this moment, someone cursed: "Look, what's down there?"
Under the cover of the dark night, a big guy was coming at a high speed. That speed was definitely as fast as an airplane, at least 500 kilometers per hour, but the head was super big!
"Peace Dove No. 4." There were people who knew the goods on the scene: "Takeoff weight is 2,000 tons, carrying capacity is more than 1,000 tons, and for a 50-ton main battle tank, 20 can be transported at a time. The key is speed."
"50-ton main battle tank? No, we have to speed up, we can't let the army get ahead!" Everyone was nervous.
At this time, one amphibious ship after another had opened its mouth, and one hovercraft after another drove out of it, rushing towards the opposite exercise target at lightning speed, but obviously, they were still not as fast as the ground effect vehicle.
When it was a few kilometers away from the target, the ground effect vehicle began to land. When it stopped steadily, it was only half a kilometer away from the beach. Then, a hole opened under its nose, and one 63A amphibious tank after another drove out of it.
Go, go, go!
They were the last to leave, but they were the first to arrive thanks to their equipment advantage. At this time, they started the most brilliant exercise. Just like the previous exercises, their tanks floated on the sea, with only the turret exposed outside and the entire body immersed in water.
Is it leaking?
Of course it will leak!
It is absolutely impossible for a tank to maintain absolute sealing, and seawater will seep in from all kinds of gaps, but don't be afraid, we have a water pump under our feet!
There is a special pump at the bottom of the amphibious tank. As long as the water is not poured in, it can pump out all the water that has seeped in and will not sink.
Soon, the tracks touched the beach, the driver put the land gear on, and the tank roared onto the beach.
Overhead, a group of aircraft also flew over.
Fighters flew high, ready to respond to possible enemies at any time, helicopters flew low, and the Marines inside rappelled or ran down directly, and the tanks drove up directly, and soon, the beachhead position was opened up.
Where is the Blue Army?
Without the participation of the Blue Army, wouldn't it be a performance by our Red Army?
Everyone still hesitated a little, but this did not affect the speed of their actions. Everyone rushed to their goals quickly.
Ports, airports, various bases...
The amphibious ship was empty. It unloaded the first wave of attack forces and then returned to receive the second wave. When the roar sounded on the sea, they could only watch with envy. The doves of peace flew too fast. They couldn't keep up with it at all!
"No one thought that the ground effect vehicle could succeed at the beginning. I didn't expect that it would become such an advanced equipment now!"
"No, this thing has many defects. For example, the weather requirements are still quite high. If the meteorological conditions are not met, it cannot fly. Moreover, large ground effect vehicles can only take off and land at sea. Even if they fly over the land, they can't land. It's useless."
"That's awesome enough."
In the era of the Red Empire, Chief Designer Alexei created the Caspian Sea Monster, but there were many technical problems that could not be solved. In addition, he was not valued by the leaders, and the funds he received were getting less and less.
In the end, the Caspian Monster did not become practical until the Red Empire collapsed.
And now, in the East, it has been reborn! With the speed of an airplane and the carrying capacity of a ship, this big guy can play a huge role in amphibious operations!
The sky in the east slowly turned white. In the command hall in Zhoushan, everyone felt that their eyelids were fighting.
"Okay, this second round of exercises is over, now it's time for us to rest."
"Yeah, gotta have a good sleep."
Even Nicholas couldn't stand it anymore. When he was sleepy in the middle of the night, he secretly drank a few sips of wine. Now he was sitting on a chair, snoring softly.
"Everyone, let's go and rest. There should be nothing major during the day. We will continue the drill tonight! By the way, send out the lookout posts. No ships are allowed to pass through our drill area to avoid accidental injuries!"
In the past, no matter what you did, you would do it during the day, but with the continuous improvement of technology, it has shifted from day to night. Especially when your opponent does not have the same technology but you have it, nighttime has a huge advantage. .
One warship after another has been busy all night. Those who should sleep should go to sleep, and those who should be on duty continue to be on duty. After all, warships work in three shifts. The sailors on duty at night had a good night. They don’t know whether they can fall asleep during the day, but they don’t know if they can sleep at night. The sailors who have spent the night are now very energetic and preparing for the next exercise.
On the rear deck of the Mao Navy Type 1144 cruiser Admiral Razaev, an elevator slowly lifted up a Ka-27 carrier-based helicopter. A few minutes later, the helicopter roared into the air.
They are separated from the main fleet. After all, the main fleet is too large, and their Da Mao Navy has not opened up the data link, making it inconvenient to communicate, so they simply separated it into two exercise battlefields.
At this time, the helicopter began to take on the task of searching.
Although there are early warning aircraft flying in the sky and drones searching, there may still be various loopholes. After all, the sea is too vast, and some ships may not be detected by radar.
Such as fiberglass yachts.
Not long after the Ka-27 took off, he saw a surge of water on the sea. In front of the current was a high-speed yacht!
This yacht is not big, and it looks like it is only a few dozen tons in size. If the wake was not too large and exposed the target, it would be difficult to detect it with the naked eye. When he saw it, the commander behind him, Ivanov, immediately shouted: "Fly over!"
On the yacht, several people looked at the sky in shock. When they saw the helicopter approaching, their eyes showed despair.
"It seems to be from the Da Mao Navy. I saw the logo on the side of the helicopter!" one person shouted.
"Ask them for help?"
"Of course not, Da Mao's position..."
At this moment, a trumpet sounded in the sky: "Listen to the yachts below, there is a training area ahead, please return immediately, please return immediately!"
"Ignore him and keep walking!"
"Don't they understand our Russian?" Ivanov thought for a moment, turned on his phone, and started the translation software inside. Soon, the words were spoken in an Eastern language.
"People below, listen, return immediately, return immediately!"
There was still no response from below and they continued to move forward. Now Ivanov became angry and pulled the bolt with a clatter.
Da da da!
The sound of machine gunfire hit the sea in front of the yacht. For a moment, the people in the yacht were startled, and then they raised their hands involuntarily.
"Haha, those idiots, look what they are doing!"
"That's right, they don't understand what we say, and they don't know how to be afraid until we use our guns. These people are so stupid!"
"But they don't need to raise their hands, right? Let's go around in a circle and see what they want to do."
The people below were horrified, but after raising their hands for a long time, they saw no movement from above. Finally, one person cautiously spoke: "Is it true that they don't want to arrest us, but just want us to go back?"
"Go back first and wait until night to see if you can come out."
So, the fiberglass yacht started to drive back again.
Seeing the yacht leaving, the Ka-27 helicopter also began to turn and fly in another direction. The safety of the exercise venue must be ensured, but these people who do not know the heights of the sky cannot be allowed in. If they die, they will have to find their own. trouble.
With this thought in mind, Ivanov continued to search the sea surface vigilantly.
Overhead, a reconnaissance satellite slid past, pointed its lens downwards, took a few pictures, and then continued flying forward.
According to the scheduled procedure, the photos should be sent immediately to the communication satellite, and then the communication satellite will transmit the information back. However, just when it was about to send the photos, it suddenly received a new command, so the original photos were deleted, and then several photos It was transmitted to it via radio waves, which in turn transmitted it to the reconnaissance satellite.
When the photo was sent to the rear, several people took a few glances and made a judgment: it was very normal there. Although the exercise was very noisy, it was just an exercise, so there was no need to be afraid.
"Over the years, they have never tired of exercises, and they will hold several exercises from time to time." An intelligence officer said with a sarcastic tone: "Unfortunately, they don't understand at all. Exercises are meaningless and will only make people watch. Go to their stronghold."
"Yes, look at Da Mao. Even if he has no money in his pocket, he will take action when he needs to take action. Therefore, they have never been able to develop."
"So, is it right to only use exercises to show off your muscles?"
"Forget it, let's not discuss this. Since there is nothing here, let's focus the camera on the colonel. We have to find the damn colonel and kill him!"
The exercise continues.
When the amphibious ship finished its second trip, the Peace Dove had already made four trips. If it weren't for the delay in loading and unloading, they might have made more trips. There was only one Peace Dove IV of 2,000 tons, and there were more than ten Peace Dove III of 500 tons. The delivery capacity of these Peace Doves was almost the same as that of the entire amphibious ship.
However, they are not as good as the RoRo ship.
The real highlight is the RoRo ship!
The RoRo ship in the front has a displacement of only 40,000 tons, which is about the same as 075, but it does not carry carrier-based aircraft, has no hangar, no take-off deck, and does not need to carry a large number of personnel. The main cabin can be used to carry vehicles, so it can carry a large number of vehicles!
If it transports ordinary cars, it can transport as many as 7,500 vehicles!
However, now, since heavy equipment is to be transported, its space is not fully utilized, otherwise it will be overloaded. In the lower two floors, which are also the cabins with the highest carrying capacity, armored crawler tractors are installed, and there are clothes drying poles in front. There are a total of 400 vehicles. On the upper third floor, other high-mobility off-road vehicles are installed. This is considered a slight overload, but the impact is not great. Anyway, the weight is concentrated below, and the upper part is almost empty.
Behind this 40,000-ton ro-ro ship, there are other ro-ro ships with a displacement of 10,000 to 20,000 tons, and there are also inland transport ro-ro ships with a displacement of several thousand tons to join in the fun. Since they are loaded from different docks, they can only gather into formations along the way. This fleet is mighty and heads for the exercise field.
In the early morning, the fleet began to appear in the exercise area. After sailing for another two hours, the fleet finally drove to the port. After docking steadily, the bridge board was lowered, and one car after another rumbled down from it.
The exercise has entered the third stage!
On the other side of the earth, the Mediterranean.
After a long journey, the Charles de Gaulle finally moved to the relevant waters.
Although the French wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, they had to come up when they saw that the world police suffered such a great loss. After all, they had to maintain consistency in many positions.
However, they were very cautious. After all, if their equipment was also lost, no one would pay for it. They had to be more cautious.
"They should have no attack capability." On the island, the first mate Maletel said: "After all, they only have two stealth aircraft, and they have all been shot down."
"Who told you that they only have two stealth aircraft?" Captain Guillaume looked at the sea in the distance with a complicated look, with worry on his face.
"Do they have more stealth aircraft? The Minzhou Group must not do this, otherwise... they will become the public enemy of the entire West!"
"Stealth aircraft have spread a lot. Even if the colonel has more stealth aircraft, can he say that the Minzhou Group gave them?" Guillaume continued: "You have to use your brain!"
"Yes."
"Look, what is that?" Suddenly, someone shouted.
On the sea in the distance, the outline of a huge ship appeared. At this time, one side was tilted, and it looked like it would sink into the sea at any time, but it seemed to be unwilling to give up and was struggling.
"That's the Aegis battleship." Marletel said: "That kind of super battleship has ended up like this, we..."
What does the French Navy have? The equipment they have is not only inferior to that of the Americans, but even the British Navy is inferior!
One aircraft carrier, Charles de Gaulle, two amphibious assault ships, Mistral class, but these are all offensive forces, what about the fleet's defense?
During the Cold War, Europeans knew that their defense capabilities were not very good, so they decided to jointly develop, but unfortunately, the three monks had no water to drink, and eventually parted ways. The British independently developed the Type 45, and France and Italy worked together on the Horizon-class destroyer.
They still couldn't play with modern air defense ships with four-sided phased array radars, so they had to settle for the second best and develop rotating antenna radars. Moreover, their radars were even worse than the Sampson radars on the Type 45.
Even such a warship cannot be built quickly by French shipbuilding companies.
The first ship of the Horizon class, Forbin, cut the first steel plate in 2002, was launched in March 2005, and then began a long test. It has not yet reached the state of delivery to the troops.
The British know how to drag their feet in cooperation. They have come up with the Type 45, which has been put into service, but it has become a joke because of its frequent brake failures.
As for the Aquitaine-class frigates jointly developed by France and Italy, the order has just been placed, and it is even more distant to be completed. Therefore, the only air defense ship they can use at present is the old-fashioned Casar-class destroyer. The Lafayette-class frigate was once dazzling, but now it is just like that.
Why come here with such a fleet? Looking for excitement?
But they have to come. The British Navy with broken shafts and brakes has come, and their French Navy must also express its feelings.
"Report, we have received news from the United States that they are asking to take over our command and command our carrier-based aircraft to carry out ground attacks."
Hearing this news, Guillaume shook his head immediately: "Of course not! Our fleet can only be commanded by us, no one else has this power!"
What a joke, the Americans must have suffered heavy losses and are eager to regain their face. If they let the Americans command them, then wouldn't they be used as cannon fodder by the Americans next?
"Humph, do the Americans think that their strength has greatly weakened, so they want to weaken our strength?" Maletaire said: "We can't be fooled!"
"Tell them that they can give us attack missions, and we will assess the danger level of the target and then decide whether to launch an attack." Guillaume said.
