The maritime formation consists of two 052Ds, two 054As, a dock landing ship and a supply ship. Now a No. 53 ship has been added, and its strength has exceeded the combined strength of the navies of most countries in the world.
The dock landing ship carries a marine battalion and a special operations squadron, and there is no problem in fighting a battle to capture the island.
Li Hai is a firepower supremacist and a late-stage patient with phobia of insufficient firepower. Based on this, his suggestions are arrogant and extravagant from beginning to end, using almost all shipboard weapons.
First use naval guns to fire salvos, ranging from 130 mm to 76 mm. Five ships fire five main guns in salvo. The ammunition delivery capacity per unit time is equivalent to a large artillery regiment!
Take the H/PJ-45 single-barreled 130 mm caliber naval gun carried by the 052D. Its maximum rate of fire reaches a terrifying 40 rounds per minute. One gun is equivalent to an artillery battalion!
In other words, the amount of ammunition delivered by a salvo of five ships is equivalent to a large-scale artillery regiment firing a salvo on Jiangdao. Of course, it cannot completely cover the island, but it can provide intensive coverage within 300 meters of the radar station. Shelling is no problem at all.
The second wave of fire strikes was carried out by ship-based helicopters carrying air-to-surface missiles. This round was mainly a precision strike to destroy important target points.
Originally, Li Hai suggested launching eight or ten cruise missiles, but Xu Yu rejected it without hesitation.
A cruise missile that can hit two to three thousand kilometers and is worth tens of millions is used to hit low-value targets dozens of kilometers away. That is not arrogance, it is just burning too much money.
Eight out of ten coins will go out, and twenty or thirty Kunan will be gone.
Such high costs are unacceptable.
Li Hai followed Xu Ning to check on the situation of the Marine Battalion.
The Type 071 amphibious dock landing ship has a large space. The dock can accommodate four hovercrafts, and the two vehicle decks can load all the equipment of a marine battalion. On both sides of the dock, there are landing troop compartments, each of which can accommodate 18-26 people. No matter how many people there are, it can accommodate all the officers and soldiers of a marine battalion.
There are water sprinklers arranged at a certain distance near the hook, which are very similar to the water sprinklers used in induction fire protection systems. After introduction, Li Hai learned that it was a sprinkler system specially used to cool down nearby equipment and nearby spaces.
Li Hai followed Xu Ning walking in the passage in front of the landing troop cabin. The height here is higher than the hovercraft in the dock. There are hooks in the air above the passage. The landing troops will use the ropes hung here to maneuver directly to the hovercraft, which greatly improves the efficiency of the landing craft. emergency response speed.
If you want to be an aircraft carrier captain, you are definitely one of a kind!
The soldiers of the Marine Battalion are full of energy and have a strong sense of fighting.
Li Hai also realized that he had to treat cruise missiles as money, so he stopped insisting.
As a captain, Li Hai knows that even an old frigate like Ship 53 has a far more complex design than a fighter jet, and every detail must be taken into consideration, and all aspects must be designed in a coordinated manner. He initially learned about this ship with a full load displacement of more than 25,000 After building a thousand-ton amphibious dock landing ship, he realized that there was really a huge difference between ships. Ships with different tactical missions were even more different from each other.
He said loudly, "Chief, we didn't have a chance before, but now that we have a chance, we should be allowed to try our skills. It's not to prove that we are better than anyone else, but to make the hard training of my soldiers in the past year worth it." of!"
The unmanned reconnaissance aircraft successively sent back reconnaissance reports, and a detailed strike plan was quickly formulated. The second half included the use of the Marine Battalion for landing operations. Whether to use it or not depends on the combat situation.
Their battalion commander stood in front of Xu Ning, blocking the passage.
Because the power system of the hovercraft uses an aeroengine, the operating temperature is as high as 800 degrees. If the temperature is not cooled, some equipment and facilities in the dock will be affected, and the landing troop cabin does not meet the living conditions.
It can be seen that it is very difficult for the captain of a frigate to be the captain of a destroyer. It is even more difficult for the captain of a destroyer to be the captain of an amphibious assault ship or an amphibious dock landing ship!
What he said was true and every word was true.
How rare is the opportunity to fight with real swords and guns?
No matter how realistic a live-fire drill is, it cannot compare to an actual battle.
Xu Ning said, "I understand your feelings very well, but the Jiangdao we are going to attack will not have more than one platoon of enemies on it. When we have an absolute advantage, using a battalion to fight a platoon is no different from a live-fire drill. the difference."
"Even if there is only one enemy, the meaning is different." The Marine Battalion Commander resolutely asked for a fight.
Li Hai was very familiar with the eyes of the Marine battalion commander. Most of the officers and soldiers of the many special operations forces he had encountered before were in this state. In the order of battle of our army, the Marine Corps has long been a branch of the special forces. Even though it has been expanded now, But the spirit passed down has not been lost at all.
"Chief, this is a rare opportunity for military training." Li Hai said.
Although his military rank and rank are not high, he is the main staff member in this operation and one of the front-line commanders. His opinions must be considered by Xu Ning.
The Marine Battalion Commander gratefully nodded slightly towards Li Hai, who had the same military rank as him but was one level lower than him.
"I agree in principle, but it depends on the development of the subsequent battle." Xu Ning relented.
The Marine Battalion Commander stood at attention and saluted, then moved out of the way, allowing Xu Ning to continue walking forward.
Grassroots commanders and fighters are eager to fight, and this morale must be maintained and encouraged. If a unit loses its desire to fight, it will be difficult to win the next battle.
How old is the Major Battalion Commander?
Judging from the current average age of junior officers in the army, a considerable number of them are no more than thirty years old, which is the most aggressive age group. Just like Li Hai, who is only twenty-six years old and is already a major deputy battalion-level pilot. His master was It's not as fast as his promotion.
However, for a cadre of Xu Yu's level, the issue that needs to be considered is not just morale. Even if the Thai side agrees to the maritime formation to implement the island landing operation plan on Jiangdao, the problem is to launch a marine battalion to carry out military operations overseas. , other possible impacts must be taken into consideration.
After thinking about it and reporting it to the theater joint command chiefs' meeting for approval, Xu Yu made up his mind to let the Marine Battalion try his skills.
At 14:00 sharp, the attack began.
The firepower preparation took ten minutes. After that, the HNA Squadron and the Thai Gripen fighter jets formed an air strike detachment and used aviation rockets to launch an aerial firepower attack on Jiangdao. The Thai side was very ruthless and would rather put the radar station Even if it is leveled, not even a single armed person will be allowed to escape from Jiangdao.
Immediately, the devil commandos entered first and killed the remaining armed personnel.
The number of armed personnel hiding in Jiangdao was more than expected, and they were hiding in tunnels, which was also within the predictions of the command center. The Devil Commando retreated while fighting and established a position on the beach. Immediately, the Marine Battalion took helicopters to The hovercraft carried out a three-dimensional landing operation on Jiangdao.
Faced with the strongest soldiers on the surface and the three-dimensional attack, a few dozen armed personnel had no power to fight back.
With just one attack, the soldiers of the Marine Battalion wiped out all the armed personnel on Jiangdao. Their powerful combat capability against the island was impressive.
For example, when attacking a semi-buried bunker, a squadron of the Marine Battalion concentrated its firepower and was able to fire three 120mm-caliber rockets at the same time, directly blasting the semi-buried bunker into a crater.
Such insane class firepower is undoubtedly the best in the world.
Li Hai witnessed the powerful firepower and excellent tactical abilities of his Marine brothers, and was shocked.
The armed group composed entirely of retired military personnel from Western countries that attacked the transport helicopters of the Devil Training Camp was wiped out in such an island offensive operation with a more intense firepower demonstration. ()
