"Hey, what are you doing? It's my turn!" James shouted from behind.
The guys just recovered from saying goodbye to the first plane, and quickly operated the second plane, towed it until it took off, and aligned it with the runway. A few minutes later, the second plane also took off in front of their eyes.
"This is a real aircraft carrier-based aircraft, and we need this kind of aircraft! I really hope these two can stay in our navy forever!" LaCour was extremely excited.
"There is no ablation on the deck. This kind of aircraft is amazing!" Soracha was also very excited.
They only operated the J-31 for a period of time before returning it to land. There were many reasons for this, but the problem of deck ablation did exist. Now this aircraft has successfully solved their problem, making them very satisfied.
The two fighter planes formed a formation in the sky and rushed towards the sea area where the target ship was located.
In the distant sky, the early warning aircraft disappeared again after briefly receiving the signal of two fighter jets taking off.
"No wonder the Navy asked us for help. Their e-2s shouldn't be able to detect the takeoff and landing of fighter planes at all."
"Yeah, the Navy's early warning aircraft is a joke."
They are relaxed again, and it is also very good to belittle the navy.
"There is a new maritime target heading to the exercise waters, and it is now one hundred kilometers away from the Siamese aircraft carrier formation!"
"It should be the warships of the Asan Navy that went over to join in the fun. This thing is getting more and more interesting!"
"That's right, the Siamese navy can't find a warship two hundred kilometers away from them. If it comes to war, they will be sunk to the bottom of the sea in minutes!"
For the U.S. Navy, four hundred kilometers is their first line of defense. Their fighter planes can easily detect targets four hundred kilometers away, and then call for fighter planes to intercept or attack. So if you want to attack the U.S. Navy, you have to
A missile with a range of 500 kilometers.
However, other countries do not have this ability. The aircraft carrier formation of the Siamese Navy was even approached to a hundred kilometers! They were not even aware that at this distance, ordinary anti-ship missiles could attack them.
Well, whether it is Harpoon, Exocet, or C802, the range is more than 100 kilometers, and the Uranus anti-ship missile is also at this level.
At this time, if the bright spot on the radar screen is enlarged into a warship, you can see its chaotic deck superstructure, densely covered with various weapons, full of the style of old Maozi weapons from the 1960s and 1970s.
The four quadruple anti-ship missile launchers are located in the space on both sides of the front bridge, tilted outward at an angle of 30 degrees. Although they are not big in size, they are quite numerous.
Just by looking at this arrangement, you can deduce its model: Asan's most advanced Delhi-class destroyer!
Asan has always been seeking hegemony in the Indian Ocean and has been purchasing warships. After purchasing five Lao Maozi Type 61 destroyers, also known as the NATO codename Cassin class, they decided to take matters into their own hands. In 1977
At that time, their "project 15" shipbuilding plan was officially launched. The goal of this plan was to build a domestic Asan destroyer, which was later called the Delhi class.
It is said that they have to make it themselves, but according to Asan's industrial level, it is just making a shell and installing various imported weapons on it. In fact, Asan has a special status and can purchase various weapons and equipment from the East and the West.
, such a fusion is also a good choice.
However, the key point is that Ah San procrastinates in everything he does. This project started construction ten years later in 1987, but there were still twists and turns during the construction process, with some overshooting and some revisions to the design, and finally in 1997
It has just entered service. In an era when stealth is popular around the world, Ah San, a brand-new destroyer, is still full of the violent aesthetics of the old Maozi era, which makes people sigh.
Looking at the Aegis ship launched by Dongfang again, we can see how big the gap between the two sides is.
However, Ah San didn't think so.
On the bridge of the destroyer Delhi, Captain Jamwal looked at the ocean outside with great interest, with excitement on his face: "See? The ocean here belongs to us, and no one can challenge our maritime hegemony.
, it is impossible for Pakistan, and it is even more impossible for Siam. Now, we will let them know who is the real overlord of the ocean!"
What does Siam have? A dilapidated aircraft carrier that costs about the same as a frigate, and a few outdated frigates. What else do they want to rely on to maintain the safety of the canal? Stop joking!
Jamwal was born in 1952 and is now in his forties, which is the golden age of a person, mature, steady and full of courage.
"Captain, why should we listen to the Americans?" asked the first mate on the side.
They want to show their existence, but they are independent. Why do they have to rush over after the Americans say a word? This is so shameless!
"Why listen to the Americans? Of course it is to gain the support of the United States. When we detonated the mushroom bomb, we attracted opposition from all over the world, especially the United States, which actually imposed sanctions on us. Taking this opportunity, we can fight with the United States
Re-establish a good relationship, and as long as this mission is completed well, we will hold joint military exercises here in the future. In this way, we will become allies again, and we can continue to purchase various weapons from the West."
Jamwal saw further. When he told these things, the first mate agreed: "Yes, it is indeed the case."
"In the past, when we were building Delhi-class destroyers, it was enough to rely on Da Mao's weapons and equipment, but that's no longer possible. Many of Da Mao's things have fallen seriously behind, and they even have to purchase them from the East. Their newly built frigates are at the critical moment.
We have encountered difficulties with the radar. I heard that we spend huge sums of money to purchase from the East. We must not want things from the East. Only weapons from the West can lead the East. Whether it is radar or gas turbines, we need to purchase from the West. This is a rare opportunity.
good chance."
"So, shall we simulate an attack now?"
"Of course, take off the helicopter now and prepare to provide relay guidance for our anti-ship missiles."
When the Delhi-class destroyer was being developed, it was planned to install the famous 380 Sandfly anti-ship missile, but I don’t know what Asan was thinking. In the later stage, it was actually replaced with the 324 Uranus subsonic anti-ship missile. Of course, this kind of missile
It did not exist for long, and was quickly replaced with anti-ship missiles jointly developed by Damao and Asan.
The 324 anti-ship missile is a strange one. Lao Maozi has always liked thick and long big guys, and he has always liked supersonic anti-ship missiles. However, since the United States has Harpoon, they must also have similar missiles, so
The Uranus missile was developed in this way. Lao Maozi's own main warships were not very equipped, but they sold a lot to exports.
Although the 380 missile is not installed, if there is a bandstand over-the-horizon radar specifically designed to guide this missile, it can also meet the needs of guiding anti-ship missiles with a range of more than 100 kilometers. But they do not have it. They use
Thin plate fire control radar. (This is from Baidu. I really don’t know which radar this is. From the introduction, it should be the downgraded single-sided roof radar on the top of the mast, right?)
This kind of radar does not have over-the-horizon attack capabilities, so if you want to launch a simulated attack on a surface target fifty kilometers away, you will need relay guidance. This will require the anti-submarine helicopter on the warship to make a temporary guest appearance.
Following his order, the helicopter at the rear of the ship began to prepare. For Ah San, these movements were always slow.
In the sky, two fighter planes roared towards the target.
"Caddy, please don't turn on the radar in a hurry. We will fly approximately 40 kilometers near the target first, and then use the radar for a short search."
Using radar will expose your target, so professional attack aircraft like the F117 do not have radar at all. Fighters definitely need radar, but it cannot be turned on at any time and will only be turned on when needed.
"If there is no problem with their target ship's route, then we can find the target visually without turning on the radar at all. In this way, we can use the TV I mounted to guide the missile." James is also a very brave person.
As he spoke, he looked towards the vast sea.
The two fighters each carried different C704 missiles. Delano carried a conventional radar guidance model, and James carried a TV guidance model. The maximum range was only 35 kilometers, so the optical guidance system was also completely
It works. At this time, James hopes that his missile can hit the target ship and also get some limelight. The limelight cannot always belong to Delano.
"Target found, direction 11 o'clock!" When he looked, he actually found the target! It was actually on the left front of the route?
"Something's wrong. There seems to be something wrong with this target ship. It didn't follow the predetermined route." Delano said.
"The Siamese people must have remembered it wrong and are requesting an attack now!" James said while trying to turn on the weapon safety, but at this moment, a voice came: "The weapon has been unlocked."
Voice operation!
This is a function that Qin Tao used to deceive the outside world when he proposed the J-31 project. Although it was deceiving at the time, the relevant technical teams have been developing it over the years. James's aircraft,
It is equipped with the voice assistant 1.0 system.
At this time, the voice startled him.
"The target has been locked, do you want to launch an attack?" the voice assistant continued to ask.
"Attack?" James was just questioning, but he didn't expect that as soon as he finished speaking, he felt the fuselage vibrate with a bang.
The weapons hatch opened and the anti-ship missile was ejected!
"The wild dog called the caddy, why did you launch the missile?" Delano was worried.
From his perspective, he could clearly see the entire launch process: the bomb bay opened, a sky-blue missile came out of it, the red warhead was so conspicuous, and then, blazing flames emerged from its tail, and the missile started
Speed forward!
Looking at the white smoke drawn out of the sky, James was completely dumbfounded: "No, it's not me, I didn't launch the missile."
"How did the missile fly out?"
"It flew out on its own. I swear, I didn't press any buttons."
Of course he didn't move, he just said a few words, and he still said it in a questioning tone. However, the voice operation in this era is still very imperfect. It is good to be able to understand the meaning of the command. It is impossible to understand it.
To understand the tone, James was just asking a question, but in the computer system, it turned into an affirmative order.
Now there's trouble.
Delano turned on the radar, and two clear bright spots appeared on the screen. One of the bright spots was the planned target ship in the originally planned sea area, and the other bright spot was the target of James' missile attack!
"Wild dog calls caddy, you hit the wrong target, activate the missile self-destruction program, activate the missile self-destruction program, hurry!"
Normally, no other ships are allowed to enter near the exercise area. Siam has announced the exercise area in advance, but accidents will always happen. If this missile sinks a ship that accidentally enters the sea area, the consequences will be disastrous.
It will definitely cause an uproar internationally. Those conspirators will not say that it is the ship's fault, but will only blame the exercise party.
"Understood, start the self-destruct program!" James replied.
At this critical moment, the voice assistant cannot understand: "Excuse me, what are you talking about? I can't understand, you can try saying this..."
"Shut up!" James cursed while hurriedly pressing the buttons on the screen.
The missile is still flying forward.
In the sky, the people on the early warning aircraft were dumbfounded. What's going on?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The missile appeared out of thin air, a bright spot suddenly appeared on the sea, and then pounced on the Asan Navy warship, according to the reflection echo of the target
From the looks of it, it should be an ordinary small anti-ship missile, but it would also pose a threat to the destroyer.
What's going on with the Siamese people? Want to sink Ah San's destroyer? If they kill the Delhi, then the situation will definitely escalate!
"Quick, we need to inform Asan Navy immediately that their warships are under attack!"
The radar officer was worried.
But the commander was not in a hurry: "It's too late at this time. As the strongest force in the region, how could the Asan Navy not even detect an anti-ship missile? There is no need to notify them."
It was indeed too late. After all, Ah San was not their true ally and there was no integrated data link. If they wanted to notify, they could only convey it through the official first, and by the time it was slowly conveyed to the warship, the missile had already arrived.
However, his unhurried attitude obviously had other intentions: it is not too big a deal to watch the excitement. Under the current circumstances, if the tragedy of the Delhi being hit or even sunk really happened, then
Asan and Siam started fighting. As a result, the canal would naturally not be built!
Therefore, at this time, there is no need for them to remind Ah San, Ah San, please wish yourself well!
As the first destroyer built by Ah San, the Delhi-class destroyer carries Ah San's dream. During the development, various technical indicators were constantly changed. After all, they hope that the performance of this warship will be as advanced as possible and the more weapons it will have.
The better, even though the displacement is only five or six thousand tons, it still desires the performance of a 10,000-ton battleship.
Take air defense as an example. This warship is equipped with two Shikili air defense missile launchers, one on the platform behind the main gun and one on the helicopter hangar, with 48 bombs. The overall data is the same as that of the modern class, but
, but it is equipped with a total of six R-90 "nuts" ("front cowl") illumination radars on both sides of the foremast, both sides of the mizzen mast, and both sides of the front bridge, used to guide anti-aircraft missiles!
Ah San is the only one in the world who does this, for fear of encountering a saturation attack and running out of target illumination radars. Even the modern class only has two installed, and the average American Aegis warship only has three target illumination radars.
radar.
There are so many radars installed, and a lot of the equipment comes from different countries, so the Delhi-class destroyers have serious electromagnetic compatibility problems. For Asan, these are not a problem. Since there are electromagnetic compatibility problems, then they simply don't use them.
The mission this time was originally a simulated attack mission, so only the "thin plate" radar on their warship was working, and the other radars were stationary.
Anti-ship missiles flying over the sea at ultra-low altitude are difficult to detect, and Ah San was not prepared for this. They didn't know that a big killer weapon was already coming over the sea!
At this critical moment, the first mate on the bridge looked towards the sea, staring at a unique scene on the sea. His brain first shut down, and then he reacted and shouted loudly: "Attack alarm, there is an attack."
An anti-ship missile flew over!"
He couldn't see the anti-ship missiles, but he could see the white smoke dragged out from behind the anti-ship missiles. The white smoke was still extending towards their warships. This scene was just like Sherfield in the 1982 Falklands War.
The number was attacked exactly the same!
Damn, what's going on?
Jamwal also looked over, and when he saw the flying missile, he immediately shouted loudly: "Quick, full left rudder!"
Now, the missile is flying from their one o'clock direction. If it goes towards it, it will definitely be impossible to avoid. But if it turns, it will be even more impossible to avoid, because after turning, they will put their own
The side of the hull is exposed in front of the missile, and the radar reflection area is larger.
However, it is too late for them to activate the air defense system now, so they can only hope to avoid it in this way!
boom!
At this moment, the flying missile exploded when it was still one kilometer away from them! The fireball appeared in front of them, making them feel like they were in a trance. What happened? Why did it detonate in advance?
Bang bang bang bang!
There was still a sound. After the explosion, some debris continued to fly forward, and accelerated, hitting the destroyer Delhi, and colliding with the steel warship. The sound it made gave people a feeling of fear.
"ah…"
There were screams from behind.
"What's going on? Is anyone hurt?"
"No, it crashed into the sea. Our helicopter also fell into the sea."
If the helicopter operates the full rudder before taking off, isn't this the person behind the wheel?
