Chapter 219: Torpedo? No, a nuclear-powered submarine
The sentry looked at the paper ball that fell at his feet, picked it up without any hesitation, and after giving a few instructions to the sentry on duty, he took it into the house.

The top instructions were given, no matter how late it was, no matter how urgent the matter was, as long as someone threw a paper ball in, it meant that the Flying Knight had arrived. As long as he had arrived, it meant that more good things had been delivered, and it had to be reported immediately. This was a tacit understanding.

"What happened?"

After being woken up by the secretary, he quickly asked.

"The Flying Knight is here, and has handed me a note. I need you to unblock it yourself!"

"Bring it here!"

When the note was handed to him, he opened it and saw the words: "I'm giving you a toy from old Mihai. It's in a valley not far from Xishan. Send soldiers to receive it quickly. Another batch of food will arrive soon, around the beginning of winter. We also need to clear out the warehouse. When the time comes, just publish the address of the warehouse in the newspaper. Be careful not to leave anyone behind. Flying Knight, leave a message!"

After reading all the words on the window, Wang Luo wandered away to find a place to sleep.

"Fully armed, emergency assembly, emergency assembly!"

The duty room in a military camp somewhere suddenly received an order directly from the top in the middle of the night. Without saying a word, the emergency assembly call was sounded and everyone began to advance towards the location where the submarine was stored fully armed.

Li Da and his logistics equipment unit and scientific research unit were also woken up by the phone call and drove over there. This was their job.

"what's the situation?"

After Li Da and his team arrived, they asked the leader of the police team.

"It's a big black fish, nearly a hundred meters long. We are from the army, so we don't know much about the navy's equipment. You can go and see for yourself!"

After entering the police circle and walking a few kilometers, they saw the Skipjack-class nuclear submarine lying quietly in an open space in the forest, waiting for their acceptance.

"The most advanced nuclear-powered submarine of the United States, the Skipjack-class, was commissioned only last year. I didn't expect it to have found its way into the forest. This is great, great!"

Several experts from the Naval Science and Technology Research Department recognized the model immediately after taking a look. They were surprised and then ecstatic. They knew best what it meant, and they immediately rushed onto the submarine using their hands and feet.

The Naval Research Department was just established last year and has six scientific research units under its jurisdiction. The only information they had was two blurry photos of old American nuclear submarines and nothing else. But today they suddenly got a real object, which is simply a godsend. It would be strange if they were not surprised.

After they opened the hatch and carefully checked it out, they came out and reported to Li Da, "It's the real thing. All the equipment is intact except for the propeller, including the nuclear reactor and torpedo. The problem with the propeller was caused by a collision. It's not a big problem. This will greatly shorten the time for our own nuclear submarine research. With this reference, I believe it won't take a few years for our own nuclear submarines to go to sea." "Okay, I'll go back and report in a while. Order this 20-kilometer area to be a military restricted area with a strict ban on outsiders entering. Order the engineering corps to immediately establish relevant protection measures!"

After the two orders were issued, everyone immediately began to act. Li Da also drove directly into the lake to report on his work.

"Submarine, or the most advanced nuclear-powered submarine of the United States?"

The most incredible one was simply unbelievable. He originally thought that the toy in the sea that Wang Luo, the flying hero, told him about was a torpedo or something. After all, it was placed in the mountain and it couldn't be much bigger. It was easy to transport it. But he never expected that it was a submarine, and the most advanced nuclear-powered submarine in the world. That was a bit outrageous.

Of course, his words do not underestimate torpedoes. The development of torpedo technology is not achieved overnight. It requires comprehensive research and development in multiple fields and aspects, including power systems, guidance systems, detection systems, explosion systems, etc. Therefore, there are not many countries in the world that can independently develop and produce torpedoes. In the 21st century, only nine countries have such capabilities.

The development of Longguo's torpedo technology can be divided into three stages: imitation stage, improvement stage and innovation stage.

The period from the 50s to the early 70s was the starting point for Longguo's torpedo technology, which was mainly achieved through reverse engineering and imitation production of the Type 53 torpedo provided by Russia to meet the needs of national defense construction and maritime security.

Everyone knows what the world is like in this era. Military confrontation and military pressure are huge, especially when facing large aircraft carrier fleets. Therefore, the strategic idea of ​​"two boats and one torpedo" was adopted, that is, submarines and speedboats were the main force, torpedoes were the main weapons, and asymmetric warfare was carried out.

During this phase, the Type 53 torpedo was successfully copied and named the "Yu-1" torpedo. This torpedo is a straight-line, unguided, electrically driven, contact-fuzed, heavy anti-ship torpedo. It has the advantages of simple structure, high reliability, and low cost, but also has disadvantages such as slow speed, poor accuracy, and low power. It was officially equipped in 1971 and played a certain role in a naval battle in 1974.

The subsequent improvement stage is to absorb and introduce technologies from other countries for research and transformation. The most typical results are that in 1978, a MK-46 torpedo was obtained from fishermen, and reverse engineering and imitation production were carried out to develop the "Yu-3" torpedo. This torpedo is an active and passive combined self-guided, electric-driven, contact-fuzed, light anti-submarine torpedo. It has the advantages of strong guidance capability, high speed, and low noise, but it also has the disadvantages of short range and low power.

The second achievement was the development of the "Yu-80" torpedo in the late 65s by improving and modifying the Type 6 torpedo of the Damao family. This torpedo is an active and passive combined self-guided, lead-acid battery driven, contact fuze, heavy anti-ship torpedo. It has the advantages of long range, great power, and high precision, but also has disadvantages such as slow speed and high noise.

The Type 53 torpedo widely used in Longguo at this time is a steam-type torpedo that has been eliminated by the mainstream. It is a product of the 36 period and can be considered an antique. So if the toy mentioned in the note is really a torpedo, it is also an amazing thing that can have a huge impact on national defense.

But I didn’t expect the surprise to be even bigger. A more powerful nuclear-powered submarine arrived directly. This was really a big surprise.

"Yes, a Skipjack-class nuclear-powered ship. Everything is intact, including the nuclear reactor and other equipment. It even has 12 of the most advanced torpedoes!"

Li Da nodded and replied.
