"Don't panic, calm down! This sea area is a safe zone, just like our backyard." The unprecedented situation alarmed the captain of the Louisiana, and the majestic lieutenant colonel suddenly
Appearing on stage puts everyone at ease.
"Family members, please leave the central control room immediately, return to your cabins to rest quietly, and wait for orders." The lieutenant colonel and the captain first drove away Old Henry and others, then walked to the officer on duty and asked about their response methods and records.
Then he said: "There is no problem with your handling."
We encountered a lot of fishing boats in the past. But today’s situation is a little different. Second Lieutenant Jackson couldn’t help but remind: “Sir, there are a total of six ocean-going fishing boats operating within five nautical miles around us, and they have all turned on active sonar. This is very
unusual."
Needless to say, Jackson also heard the sound of "duang, duang" that kept ringing in the boat. The sound was surprisingly loud, which only meant that the source of the sound was very close to him and the power was surprisingly high.
"Where are we now?" the captain asked the helmsman, and clear information was quickly given on the electronic chart.
This 'Tiger Cruise' departed from Changi Naval Port in Singapore, which is one of the most loyal doglegs of the United States in Southeast Asia. According to the data given by the inertial navigation system, the 'Louisiana' is located on the edge of the South China Sea.
, it’s like running into trouble just after leaving the port.
If it were other US warships, they could still call for support if they were in trouble. But now the Louisiana is more than 150 meters underwater, and even its ultra-long wave communications have been interrupted, making it impossible to contact the outside world.
Moreover, as a ballistic missile nuclear submarine, concealment is the most powerful weapon of the Louisiana. It cannot just call for help. Silent cruising is its characteristic.
"Increase power and sail at half speed." The captain of the lieutenant commander ordered. The 'Ohio' class can run at a speed of 25 knots at the fastest, although it is not as good as the 'Sea Wolf' or even the 'Virginia'.
But it’s enough to take the world by storm.
And now, no matter what happened, it was a matter of writing it down in the logbook and handing it over to the Office of Naval Intelligence for investigation. What the Louisiana needs to do now is to get out of the current dangerous environment.
"Perhaps we happened to encounter a few Chinese fishing boats equipped with high-power active sonar, but high power does not mean anything. They cannot have high-precision sonar receiving and analysis equipment, let alone our voiceprint information. Let's leave
This is it.”
Theoretically speaking, the absence of voiceprint information means that the submarine cannot be recognized in the ocean clutter environment. But this time the captain's words did not reassure the officers and soldiers in the central control room, because six fishing boats used active sonar at the same time.
It's so weird.
The 'Louisiana' in the deep sea was like a huge black fish. The propeller stirred the sea water and pushed it to accelerate away from the current sea area. But less than ten minutes later, the sonar soldier sent another warning: "Sir, those six ships
The fishing boats are following."
Damn it, are you following me?
The positions of six fishing boats have been marked on the electronic chart. If the nuclear submarine sailed at half speed, it would be impossible to get rid of these guys who were desperately trying to get closer. Seeing this obvious navigation track, even the Lieutenant Commander's boat
I was stunned for a few seconds.
No? This has never happened before.
The Chinese have been clamoring that the South China Sea is their territory, but in fact it has always been under the actual control of the United States. In order to prevent Chinese warships and submarines from rushing out of the first island chain from the South China Sea, the Americans have military forces in the Philippines and Singapore.
The base is responsible for guarding.
In the past few years, the Chinese have made a big fuss internationally with their land reclamation. The reason is that these actions have made the U.S. Navy, which was originally playing casually in the South China Sea, very unhappy.
Now it's even more troublesome. Not long after Yingjiang's nuclear submarine left the port, it was spotted by a fishing boat - if this fishing boat can detect nuclear submarines, what's the point? Rabbit, what kind of black technology is your fishing boat equipped with? It's going to be incredible.
Not successful?
"Dive another fifty meters, go at full speed, and escape immediately." The captain of the 'Louisiana' realized the danger. Being targeted by several fishing boats was not a fun thing. This means that in the future, the nuclear submarine of Eagle Sauce will no longer
Don't think about breaking into the South China Sea casually.
I can’t say how advanced the fishing boats in the South China Sea are, but pulling out a thousand or two thousand boats seems like a joke. This is more efficient than any sonar monitoring network, and it is also equipped with artificial intelligence.
But for the crew of the Louisiana, a big question arises - they have also encountered fishing boats in the past. Not to mention fishing boats, what kind of ship have they not encountered? Active sonar has also encountered many,
But there has never been a situation like today. This is the rhythm of being stared at!
There is no need to think too much about the reason for this. Although it is difficult to accept, one thing is already obvious. The lieutenant colonel and the captain said to the duty officer Jackson with a gloomy face: "Recorded in the logbook, our voiceprint information should have been
People have mastered it.”
The leakage of voiceprint information is like the criminal's name, appearance, and identity information being mastered by the police. No matter where you go in the future, as long as you show your face, the possibility of being targeted will greatly increase.
Now computers can replace manual comparison of data, which is fast and convenient. Enemy submarines and anti-submarine ships will be able to easily distinguish the sound of the Louisiana ship from a bunch of noise.
"What the hell!" Thinking that he would never be able to have fun in the future, the lieutenant colonel couldn't help but cursed. But now the nuclear submarine was about to escape at full speed, and the six fishing boats overhead would not let them go.
On a modified 1,000-ton fishing boat on the sea, more than a dozen navy officers and soldiers in civilian clothes were all confused. In front of them was a complete sonar system, and it was this newly modified sonar that captured the seabed.
That nuclear submarine.
Although this set of sonar transducers is not as large as those on warships, they can use active sonar unscrupulously, and the signal feedback intensity is dozens of times higher than passive sonar. They clearly looked at the 'Ohio' class nuclear submarine underwater
Dive from a water depth of 120 meters to a water depth of 220 meters, which is already approaching the maximum diving depth of the 'Ohio' class nuclear submarine.
On the fishing boat, a sonar soldier said cheerfully: "The voiceprint comparison results are out. This is the USS Louisiana, the last ship of the US Navy's Ohio class. It is completely consistent with the characteristics in the new database."
A naval officer also grinned from ear to ear, "These bastards really ran towards our territory with such arrogance, clearly trying to bully us into not recognizing them. But now that we have the voiceprint data, we will be able to
Within a certain distance, the passive sonar of warships and submarines can find it."
The boss of the ship walked in from the cabin wearing a migrant worker camouflage uniform and looked like a tough maritime militia. Seeing everyone laughing, he asked happily: "Now that we have discovered it, is there any way to sink it?"
"That won't work. We can only drive it away." The officer thought it would be good to be able to identify the target from the noise of the sea and drive it away. "In fact, it has begun to escape at a faster speed. We will report this mission to our superiors immediately.
Case."
"How boring is that?" The boss of the ship clearly felt that such a torment was not satisfying enough. "You have to teach them a lesson at once, so that these Americans will know how powerful they are. Don't they just think that sinking them will cause too much trouble? We can let them
It floats up!"
Come up? The officers and soldiers looked at each other a little bit. The opinion of the ship boss sounded very good, but the superiors did not give such an order, and the consequences were unpredictable.
"Don't worry about it, I'll be responsible."
"Boss of the ship, don't act recklessly!"
"How can I mess around? I'm just a fisherman. I can't even cast a net!"
