Li Hai thought about reducing the load of the ship to change the draft. The lighter weight will naturally allow it to run faster. The problem is that except for the Z-9 carrier-based helicopter, there is really no place to think about it.
Let the Z-9 carrier-based helicopter take off and fly in the air, and then land and return to the ship after the fuel is almost consumed. However, after calculation, it does not make much sense.
Moreover, the aviation fuel on the ship is limited. Once the fuel is exhausted, once the Z-9 carrier-based helicopter needs to be used, Li Hai will be paralyzed.
What the No. 53 ship is proud of, and what makes it stand out among many new warships, is its powerful submarine search and attack capabilities.
The Z-9 carrier-based helicopter is an important anti-submarine equipment, another pair of eyes for the ship, and even the last bullet for the ship when necessary.
Li Hai is a fighter pilot. Whether they are a fighter pilot in the Air Force or a carrier-based fighter pilot in the Navy, from the first day they attend military school, they are told that the aircraft cannon has 300 rounds of ammunition, and you and the fighter planes are the 300th.
Zero one shot!
In the helicopter force, including the navy's ship-based helicopter force, the same creed exists!
This is the embodiment of courage of Chinese soldiers!
In fact, for the No. 53 ship and all Chinese naval surface ships, the officers and soldiers know that they and the ships they serve will be the last means of attack and the last bullet fired at the enemy!
Compared with the fearless spirit of self-sacrifice and the will to fight that is absolutely superior to the enemy, the risk of crossing the Palk Strait is really nothing.
Therefore, after the commander made up his mind, all the officers and soldiers on the ship would no longer consider the risks and focused all their energy on how to quickly and safely cross the Palk Strait, including the navigator Song Jianming who had the most opinions.
This is a reflection of the strict discipline of the Chinese military!
Information about the situation in the Palk Strait and surrounding areas is constantly coming in. The combat staff will conduct preliminary analysis and screening before summarizing it to the captain.
Li Hai sat on the captain's command chair and calmly looked at the complicated information on the large-size color display, thinking quickly. His buttocks could clearly feel the speed of the old frigate No. 53. Chang Haizhou was in the battle situation
The center couldn't stand any longer and ran to the bridge to stand next to Li Hai.
The female helmsman Chen Yun comes into battle, and her steering skills are the best.
Even the best helmsman is highly stressed at this time.
Chang Haizhou glanced at the speedometer almost every half minute, and then told Li Hai in a deep voice, "The speed is reached."
The maximum design speed has been reached, which is thirty-six knots.
The captain's terminal in front of Li Hai can naturally see changes in speed. The reason why Chang Haizhou did this is to serve as a reminder.
Yao Xianyun, who was staring at their precious integrated system at the battle center, felt the change in the speed of the ship and immediately ran to the bridge.
As soon as he entered the bridge, he felt the quiet and solemn atmosphere. He turned to look at the side door. Everyone was focused on the work they were responsible for, and no one noticed his movements. Yao Xianyun walked over quickly and held the guardrail down.
Look, the ship was cutting through the waves. As an experienced man, he could tell at a glance that the ship was sailing at its maximum design speed, and he was immediately surprised.
"Entering high sea conditions ahead!" the watch officer reported loudly, his voice was very abrupt.
Everyone grasped the handrails tightly, preparing for the impact.
When a superior soldier saw Yao Xianyun standing outside, he quickly stepped out, grabbed Yao Xianyun's arm and pulled him inside.
As soon as they pulled people in, the bow of the ship pierced into a huge wave, and the sea water hit the bridge, like a tsunami hitting a building. Everyone suddenly lost their vision. The bow of the ship penetrated the huge wave, and then the ship
It was lifted high by the huge waves. After the waves passed, the bow of the ship fell down and hit the sea heavily, causing huge splashes of water on both sides.
The officers and soldiers in the bridge command center held the handrails tightly and their bodies were shaking.
The superior soldier protected Yao Xianyun, otherwise he would definitely be injured in a collision.
Just as Yao Xianyun was jolting past, another huge wave came.
The ship once again repeated its previous posture.
The ship was turbulent, but it did not affect the work of the officers and soldiers.
Reports continued to come from the engine room, and the swaying speed number in front of Li Hai was still beating stubbornly upward. The No. 53 ship was able to maintain the momentum of acceleration in high sea conditions, which is something that 054A cannot do.
, the most important reason is the different hull design.
The No. 53 ship and frigates of the same type adopt a wave-piercing bow design, with a V-angle at the bottom of the hull. However, the 054A and other new warships have weighed stability and speed and adopted a large proportion of
The flat-bottom design is more stable, but to run fast, it all depends on the "power of the bricks to fly".
A large aspect ratio is a trend in the hull design of destroyer frigates, and it is also a commonly used method now. Ships designed in this era, such as the No. 53 ship, adopt a small aspect ratio in order to pursue high speed.
Compared with 054A, the No. 53 ship is more bumpy in the same sea conditions, but its speed is higher.
Ten minutes later, Yao Xianyun realized that the previous waves were just an appetizer. He clearly saw that the No. 53 ship was submerged by a huge wave, surrounded by sea water. Just as he was desperately waiting for it to sink, the ship suddenly
Emerging from the sea, you can see the sea level all around, and it is vast and vast.
After another ten minutes, the attitude of the ship gradually stabilized, and no whitening waves could be seen in front of it, and soon the sea became calm again.
Li Hai, who had been sitting on the captain's command chair from beginning to end, stood up, checked the status of each position with steady steps, and saw Yao Xianyun, whose face was pale.
He smiled and asked, "Yao Gong, have you never seen such a big wave before?"
Yao Xianyun shook his head hard, swallowed, and said, "I have never been on such a fast battleship. Captain Li, do you know that it is very dangerous to run the maximum design speed in such sea conditions?"
"Our current speed is thirty-eight knots," Li Hai said, "and the engine room is still squeezing power."
Yao Xianyun looked at Li Hai as if he were a madman. He couldn't say anything. He held back a sentence for a long time, "I remember that the two gas turbines are new models. Don't you want them?"
"The mission comes first." Li Hai said.
Yao Xianyun nodded, expressing complete understanding.
The troops can pay any price for the mission. Two gas turbines are nothing. If they run away, they will be lost. Of course, if Yao Xianyun knew that Li Hai was going to cross the Palk Strait, which has a maximum water depth of only seven meters, he would probably have a psychological barrier on the spot.
.
Everyone in the engine room entered a state of high tension. The gas turbines and diesel engines were overloaded and made an unusual roar. The high-speed collisions of machinery stimulated the tough nerves of the officers and soldiers every time... ()
