Chapter 1282 [The bionic manta ray performs extraordinary feats on its first mission]
On the day when the 0.55-million-ton destroyer was launched, and when countless people in the country were rejoicing and excited about it, America really couldn't hold back and wanted to cause trouble.
Otherwise, the person who knows you best is actually your opponent.
The launch of a warship does not mean that it will immediately form combat effectiveness. After the launch, there are many links such as sea trials and fielding. It usually takes 20 months to finally enter service and form combat effectiveness. The 055 large-scale destroyer first ship will not take less than
Two years or even three years is possible.
America wanted to cause trouble again this time. Her main purpose was to come to 055, intending to get in and get some important military secrets of this ship during the sea trial of 055. For this reason, America
Bian sent a marine survey ship "Bowditch" to perform the mission. This ship is similar to the electronic reconnaissance ship in the big Eastern countries.
However, the main purpose of Lao Mei's "Bowditch" is not electronic reconnaissance, nor does it have that ability. Its main ability is to conduct reconnaissance of the seabed, reconnaissance of ocean hydrological conditions, etc.
…
Ten days later, a military exercise area was designated somewhere in the country's eastern waters.
On Tuesday, July 11, the USS Bowditch, which had already set off, was about to enter the territorial waters of the Eastern powers. At this moment, the captain of the ship was communicating with his superiors. When he received the latest action request, his face was full of surprise: "
What did you say? Turn off the answering machine? Sir..."
Such an action order made the captain of the "Bowditch" curse instantly in his heart, thinking of such a bad idea.
He immediately recalled some very bad memories. The Bowditch had turned off its transponder and visited Rabbit's house before, but the results were disastrous.
Just sixteen years ago, the "Bowditch" went to the Yellow Sea. She thought nothing was wrong and didn't turn on the transponder. As a result, she was surrounded by a group of fishing boats in that area. The fishing boats were more vicious than pirates. They just drove the boat.
They were rushing towards me, and some fishing boats almost climbed onto the boat with flying hooks, grabbing the anchor to prevent them from leaving.
Since then, the "Bowditch" has learned that it must turn on its transponder, otherwise it will be less dangerous.
This so-called transponder is equivalent to an automatic reporting system. Generally speaking, whether it is an airplane or a ship, including a warship, it is equipped with a transponder. In non-war conditions, the transponder is usually turned on. Normally, as long as the transponder is
When the machine receives the signal, it can answer automatically without any operation.
When a ship, especially a warship, sails into the territorial waters of another country, as long as it turns on the transponder, it means that the identity of the warship is transparent. It is equivalent to saying hello to the country and saying that it will borrow a road from your home to pass by, and it is
Those who come here normally do not come here secretly.
Turning on the answering machine is an act of harmless passage. It is a proactive identification, similar to a security statement.
In this case, the territorial sea country will generally not create difficulties. Even if it is an aircraft carrier, as long as the transponder is turned on, it will not be a big problem. The territorial sea country will at most send a warship to follow.
Because turning on the transponder is equivalent to actively reporting one's coordinates to the territorial sea country, and reporting the position at any time, which means that the territorial sea country can launch missiles to sink it at any time.
To put it bluntly, turning on the answering machine is equivalent to raising your hands high, indicating that it will not pose any threat to you. If you have evil motives, you can sink it at any time.
In fact, in domestic news reports, we often see America’s aircraft carrier and British warships lining up to visit us. Many domestic netizens are very angry about this. They even feel that their own family is still too weak and others are bullying them.
When we arrived at the door of the house, there was no reaction, so we just watched helplessly.
The news media did not report the details, and the vast majority of netizens did not know the reason. Many netizens who did not know the truth were furious after reading the news.
The real situation is that they all turned on their transponders when they came over, but what are the consequences of not turning on the transponders? What happened to the "Bowditch" sixteen years ago was the consequence of not turning on the transponders.
In fact, America and her younger brothers only started to learn to turn on the transponder in this century. They never said hello in the last century. This happened after their own active phased array radar was put on the ship.
They just learned to turn on the answering machine.
It can be seen that strength is always the most fundamental thing in this world.
But at this moment, the captain of the "Bowditch" received such an order. He didn't want to do it from the bottom of his heart, but he had no choice. This was an order, so he could only bite the bullet and try again with a sense of luck.
"Sir, we are about to arrive at the exercise area."
At this moment, the position of the "Bowditch" was already sailing within the territorial waters of the great Eastern country, and it was not far from the designated acting area. After hearing the crew report, the captain of the ship immediately said: "Turn off the transponder, everyone."
Just take it easy!"
He didn't want the Bowditch to make the same mistake it did sixteen years ago. It was not a pleasant experience at all.
All ships, including aircraft, are not allowed to enter the designated acting area, so the "Bowditch" does not dare to forcefully break in. It still has its transponder turned off. If it is sunk, it will not be able to blame.
.
So the captain of the ship ordered to stop in the outer area, then ordered to release the underwater vehicle, slowly approach from the water, and release towed sonar and other devices.
He was on this trip to cope with the errands from above, so he just had to work hard. After all, there was a film and television work with good lines. Why would you risk your life for a few hundred dollars a month? Besides, in this vast sea, it can't be said that it is very good.
You have to complete the task satisfactorily, so that you can almost deliver the goods.
"Sir, there's a situation underwater!"
At this moment, the captain of the ship was shocked when he heard what his subordinates said, but then the crew member immediately added: "It's a school of fish!"
The captain secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, but then he scolded his subordinates for half a report. After the brief interlude, he began to guide the mission deployment.
This chapter is not over yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! And the people on this boat have not yet realized that there is a bionic manta ray swimming among the fish, and the current position
The straight-line distance from the "Bowditch" is only an incredible 1 nautical mile.
It is no exaggeration to say that such a distance was right under the nose of the "Bowditch", but the towed sonar they threw into the sea did not notice it at all, and they did not realize that every move they made at this moment was exposed to the bionic manta ray.
under the nose.
Not only was the "Bowditch" completely unaware of it, but even the fish in the sea didn't think there was anything wrong with the manta rays swimming with them. The bionic manta rays were just quietly monitoring the "Bowditch" in the sea.
"No. 1" trends.
This information was transmitted to a 052D guided missile destroyer in the distance. At this time, the commander of the ship was also full of praise for the bionic manta ray. It was almost under the eyes of the enemy. The enemy seemed to be in the dark under the lamp. He was completely stunned.
not found.
This bionic manta ray has the ability to "observe and attack", but it is not currently equipped with a firepower system. If it is a war situation at this moment, this bionic manta ray is also equipped with torpedoes and launches an ambush against the "Bowditch".
Even if the gods came, it would be in vain.
While boasting about the bionic manta rays, the commanders have also ordered the start of action. The two 052D guided missile destroyers have headed straight for the location of the USS Bowditch, while the underwater bionic manta rays are still lurking and tracking the entire process.
.
As time went by, not long after, the USS Bowditch discovered that two warships were visibly coming directly towards it. The captain of the ship took a closer look and was suddenly shocked: "What-F***? What?
Two Luhu-class (052) guided missile destroyers have arrived?”
The 052D destroyer was given the codename "Luhu Class" by Lao Mei. In fact, these codenames were selfish or deliberately planned. This has never been called this in China.
When he saw the two 052Ds approaching with great momentum, the captain of the "Bowditch" suddenly felt a thump in his heart.
Was this discovered? When was it discovered? Why was there no warning?
Looking at the two approaching warships, he exclaimed in his heart that it was all over now. There was no way he could run away from the 052D guided missile destroyer "Bowditch".
At this moment, the captain of the ship was so frightened that his legs were weak because he knew very well that his ship did not turn on the transponder. In this state, it can be regarded as a hostile act. Even if it sinks you, there will be no fault.
, he immediately yelled: "Hurry up and turn on the answering machine, quickly! Hurry--!"
The crew also hurriedly turned on the answering machine.
