This was the first time that the Russians had a head-on confrontation with the Americans after the Cold War. After announcing the formation of a joint fleet, the Americans felt like a backyard fire and felt a huge threat. The US Navy's Fifth Fleet urgently returned to the Persian Gulf. At the same time,
The aircraft carrier battle group belonging to the Sixth Fleet also began to move from the Mediterranean Sea to the Persian Gulf.
The Russian Navy is not stingy at all. Since they are all in trouble, Russia must achieve its strategic goal and keep the Peter the Great aircraft carrier firmly anchored in the Persian Gulf.
The main fleet of the Black Sea Fleet was dispatched urgently. The flagship, led by the guided cruiser Moskva, led two large anti-submarine ships, three guide boats and five frigates and set out from the home port of the Black Sea Fleet towards the Persian Gulf.
At that time, the whole world was shocked by Russia's military movements.
Since the end of the Cold War, Russia has rarely had direct confrontation or conflict with the United States. However, although the Black Sea Fleet has not been fully dispatched at this time, it will be different if the aircraft carrier Peter the Great is added. Russia is not China. The aircraft carrier has been launched.
It will not be difficult to form combat effectiveness afterwards.
The former Soviet Union had nearly ten aircraft carriers. Although several Russian aircraft carriers have been decommissioned recently, the crews are still there.[
Just as the two major powers were confronting each other in the Persian Gulf, media from all over the world began to focus on the aircraft carrier Peter the Great. This aircraft carrier looks very much like an American aircraft carrier. Although the weapon systems are all made in Russia, from the outside
In terms of model and tower, the Peter the Great aircraft carrier is almost all of Western style.
Someone mentioned, is this aircraft carrier a new type of Russian aircraft carrier? But some people soon questioned the combat effectiveness of this aircraft carrier. Can the Russian Navy use Western-style aircraft carriers to have as good combat effectiveness as before?
It is still to be determined. The most important thing is that this aircraft carrier does not have carrier-based aircraft. Although the weapon systems have been installed, an aircraft carrier without carrier-based aircraft is a moving target.
But this doubt soon disappeared, because people were surprised to find that half a month after the confrontation began, the aircraft carrier was already fully flagged, and the ship was filled with all the aircraft that an aircraft carrier has, including 40
Su-33 fighter jets, 15 Ka-27 anti-submarine helicopters, 4 Su-25ugt trainer aircraft and 2 Ka-29rl early warning helicopters, a total of sixty-one aircraft.
When the guided cruiser Moskva arrived in the Persian Gulf, the aircraft carrier Peter the Great quickly formed an aircraft carrier formation with it. The Russian aircraft carrier also released a video of the takeoff and landing of carrier-based aircraft. Such high speed made the whole world stunned and the Russians were shocked again.
world.
The confrontation between the United States and Russia in the Persian Gulf made the whole world feel like it was back to the Cold War. Russia, like the United States, did not make any statement. They just sent warships there. In American terms, they did not recognize the so-called two hundred nautical miles.
The exclusive economic zone only recognizes three nautical miles of territorial waters.
Therefore, as long as it is outside your three-nautical-mile territorial waters, my warships can enter, such as the Taiwan Strait, the South China Sea, or the Yellow and Bohai Seas. Americans do not think that is China’s territorial waters, but the high seas.
.
The same is true in the Persian Gulf. Americans do not recognize the Persian Gulf as a country's territorial waters, so as long as I place my fleet at your doorstep, you can't do anything to me. Of course, it must be outside your three-mile territorial waters.
The Americans do not abide by the United Nations Convention on the Sea, so the Russians naturally do not have to abide by it. However, both countries have remained silent. They have not made any comments about the confrontation, and naturally they do not admit that this is the beginning of a new Cold War. However, the fleets of the two countries have
Carrier-based aircraft collide with each other from time to time.
In particular, reconnaissance aircraft are constantly monitoring each other's radio frequencies and radar frequencies. It seems that there is no war, but in terms of electronic warfare, the two countries are already fighting fiercely.
In modern warfare, the importance of electronic warfare has ranked first. Once it is interfered with by electronics or detected, it will fall into an unfavorable situation during wartime.
Especially the radar frequency and communication frequency. If detected by the enemy, the frequency on the battleship cannot be replaced. If you want to replace it, you can only replace the radar and communication system together, and the radar and communication system are the core of the battleship.
All command and weapon systems rely on radar and communication systems for command.
As long as the enemy knows what band your radar frequency and communication system are in, they can easily interfere with your radar and communication system when the two armies are fighting. Once interfered with, it is equivalent to changing from a normal person to a blind and deaf person, so
When a warship is at sea, it becomes a target for the enemy.
For this confrontation, Russia dispatched its most capable electronic warfare experts and even equipped the Basra Air Force with electronic reconnaissance aircraft and electronic early warning aircraft for counter-reconnaissance. This does not require collision or friction between warships. Victory or defeat lies at the rear.
, whoever gets the radar frequency and communication frequency of the opponent's fleet first will be the winner.
If the Americans get the frequency of the Russian fleet, the Russians will have no choice but to withdraw. If the Russians get the frequency, although the Americans will not withdraw, they will definitely withdraw the Fifth Fleet and replace it with another fleet.
Because no one wants to become someone else’s target after the frequency is acquired.
These days, Soryu is on the guided cruiser Moscow almost every day, and he has also brought all his network warfare experts from the Prophet Army to the battleship.
The purpose is to learn modern electronic warfare and prepare for future wars, so that if I encounter such a situation in the future, I will not be completely helpless.
At first he thought that the confrontation between the Russians and the Americans after their arrival would be a ship-to-ship battle, but after learning about electronic warfare, he knew that he was really wrong. At the same time, he also understood that if he did not develop his
electronic personnel, it will be difficult for them to deal with Americans in the future.
He finally understood that modern warfare relies not only on weapons and equipment, but also on weapon systems. If the Americans detect the frequency of Basra's missile troops, in the event of a war, the Americans can dispatch electronic jammers to paralyze all Basra forces.
communications systems and radar.
Without the radar and communication system, the missile cannot find the target at all, and it is even difficult for the command headquarters to even issue an order to launch the missile.[
In these days of electronic warfare, Canglong also saw the real power of the Americans. Even the Russian technical experts were struggling. This was no less than a real large-scale naval battle, except that the battlefield took place between two sides.
On the home front of the country, this is a competition of technology.
The Russians were not willing to fail, and almost used all their strength. This also allowed Canglong to see the tenacity of the Russians. They did not compromise in the face of powerful enemies, but instead became stronger and stronger as they fought.
But Canglong didn't have much time to observe the electronic confrontation between the two countries. As the confrontation between the U.S. and Russian navies in the Persian Gulf became more and more intense, the Chinese side also began to become anxious. Wan Zeliang used to do it for a week
He urged Canglong once, but now it becomes once a day. Although Canglong often hides on the guided cruiser Moscow, Wan Zeliang never gives up. Even if he is waiting at the port, he will wait for Canglong to come back.
There is a reason why Wan Zeliang is so anxious. If Russia and Basra form a joint fleet, then the entire Middle East will have a Russian share in the future. Since there are Russians, China will naturally join in and must not fall behind.
.
But who can China look for in the Middle East? Apart from Iran, it is Basra. I won’t mention Iran. It is still at odds with Basra. If Canglong doesn’t go back for a day, China will not be able to come forward to negotiate for Iran. If this
The Russians have won this electronic war, and it will be difficult for China to intervene.
For strategic reasons, China had to step in, so Wan Zeliang was so anxious, but Canglong just didn't see him, and even if he saw him, he only said a few perfunctory words.
Waiting until night, Canglong finally came back. Wan Zeliang was not allowed to enter the military port, so he could only wait outside. It was raining heavily that day. When Canglong saw him, his clothes were soaked through. Wan Zeliang
Just as Liang was about to say something, Canglong spoke first and said, "We'll talk when we get back first."
Back in Basra, Canglong booked a conference room in the International Hotel. What Wan Zeliang didn't expect was that Canglong said as soon as he opened his mouth: "I will go back with you tomorrow."
"Tomorrow?" Wan Zeliang was a little surprised. He was already prepared for Cang Long's perfunctory response, but he didn't expect that he actually agreed and was so straightforward, so he confirmed, "Are you sure?"
"Have I ever counted on what I said?" Canglong asked, "You go, I will definitely go back with you tomorrow."
After receiving this satisfactory answer, Wan Zeliang left with a smile.
Seeing Cang Long's thoughtful expression, Su asked: "Tou, are you really ready to go back?"
"Of course, now is the time to go back." Canglong said calmly.
"Why didn't you go back earlier or later, but why did you go back at this time?" Su asked again.
"Because everything is ready, all we need is the east wind." Canglong smiled and picked up the map, "In this month of electronic warfare, I have figured out the American psychology. As long as the Russian fleet is still in Basra, the U.S. Fifth Fleet will not
The law is moving, and we must take advantage of this great opportunity to eliminate the last enemy."
"You mean to say yes?" Su looked in disbelief. This was also their ultimate goal in coming to Iraq.
"Kuwait has been solved, the Iranians have been solved, and the Russians are here. Now we just need to kick off the last stumbling block." Canglong looked at the entire map of Iraq and looked directly at Baghdad, "Natasha, are you ready for my attack?
?"
"Aren't you planning to form a combined fleet?" Su suddenly grasped an important point.
"Combined fleet?" Canglong said sarcastically, "Will it take five years, ten years, or twenty years? No, I don't have that much time. I didn't bring the Russians here to form some bullshit joint fleet with them.
I just want them to help me block the American navy."
Su was shocked, because even he didn't expect Canglong's calculations to be so deep, but he suddenly asked: "What is the east wind you are referring to?"
"China." Canglong said, "When I go back this time, I hope that the leaders can fully support me. If they don't support me, then I can only take a gamble."
