Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

Xu Xin said: "You have to speed up, we don't have much time left!"

Liu Heng nodded, quickly marked a position on the chart, and said: "The target is probably at this position! However, the detection error of the sonar buoy is very large, and it cannot indicate the target for anti-submarine weapons."

Xu Xin said: "What's the use of not being able to indicate the target's position for anti-submarine weapons? Can you think of a way to accurately determine the position?"

Liu Heng said: "There is a way, and that is to put the airborne pendant sonar into the water. The pendant sonar works actively and emits sound waves by itself to accurately detect the target position."

Xu Xin said: "If you use a pendant sonar, the helicopter must hover, but hovering is too fuel-intensive! I can only give you 15 minutes of detection time. If the time is longer, we will not be able to fly back."

Liu Heng said: "15 minutes is enough, let's hover now."

Xu Xin pulled the main torque lever to control the aircraft to a hovering state. Then Liu Heng put down the sonar sling and put the sonar into the water. The sonar immediately emitted sound waves to detect the underwater situation. Soon a bright spot appeared. On the sonar screen, because this time it was active detection, the position of the target was extremely accurate.

Although the sonar detected the Japanese submarine, Xu Xin did not dare to relax at all. His eyes were fixed on the remaining fuel gauge, and he was calculating the remaining time in his mind. At this moment, he suddenly heard Liu Heng scream : "My God! What is this?"

Xu Xin hurriedly asked, "What happened?"

Liu Heng said: "Suddenly there are four targets! Look." As he spoke, he pointed to the sonar screen, Xu Xin turned his head and saw four bright spots appeared on the sonar screen, and couldn't help it Asked: "How did it become four bright spots? Could it be that the pendant sonar is malfunctioning?"

Liu Heng said without thinking: "If the sonar malfunctions, you will definitely not be able to see anything on the screen. How could there be three more targets? And the sonar buoys also show that three new targets have been discovered. The three sonar buoys and the hoist It’s impossible for the sonars to malfunction at the same time, right?”

Xu Xin said: "Could it be that the Japanese submarine launched torpedoes? During the Chongjin naval battle, the Japanese warships used torpedoes at a considerable distance. In this battle, they might also use torpedoes." Use torpedoes."

Liu Heng said: "But during the Battle of Chongjin, the Japanese warships used torpedoes about [-] kilometers away from our fleet. Now the target is at least [-] kilometers away from our warships. We captured their torpedoes when we were in North Korea. After analysis and research, their torpedoes can only reach [-] kilometers at a speed of [-] knots! How could they launch torpedoes now?"

Xu Xin asked: "Have the speeds of the three extra targets been determined?"

Liu Heng said: "It's confirmed, it's all ten festivals!"

Xu Xin said: "Look, it's ten knots! Maybe the three extra targets are their torpedoes."

Liu Heng said: "Even if their range is sufficient, what do they rely on for guidance? Seventy kilometers. In our era, it is impossible for torpedoes to detect and find targets at this distance."

Xu Xin said: "Forget it, let's stop guessing here, I will report this news to the superior, and see how the superior makes a judgment." After Xu Xin finished speaking, he contacted Yuan Long and said, "Report to the captain, I will The unit found that the number of Japanese submarines suddenly changed to four, please instruct my unit on the follow-up actions."

Yuan Long thought in his heart: "Suddenly it became four? What is this? Could it be that the Japanese army developed a submarine mother ship? How many submarines are loaded in one submarine?" Yuan Long didn't know why, so he and The staff around me discussed, and one of the staff said, "Could it be a torpedo?"

Everyone said in unison: "It can't be a torpedo. At a distance of [-] kilometers, even if the torpedo has a homing guidance system, it's useless!" The staff officers didn't discuss what was underwater, and Yuan Long knew that the helicopter was running out of fuel. , Time waits for no one, so Yuan Long said to Xu Xin: "No matter what they are, use anti-submarine missiles to sink them first!"

Xu Xin replied loudly: "Yes!" Then he ordered the carrier-based aircraft of the White Tiger Ship to use anti-submarine missiles to attack the target. Anti-submarine missiles are actually torpedoes with autonomous flight capabilities. Fly into the water, after entering the water, the rocket motor leaves the projectile body, and the projectile body alone attacks the underwater target.

After entering the water, the speed of the missile is very fast, and the sound it produces is also very loud. In addition, the missile uses an active sonar seeker to emit sound waves by itself, so Liu Heng quickly saw the figure of the missile on the sonar screen, and then looked at it. As it rushed towards the Japanese submarine, the light spot of the missile was getting closer and closer to the light spot of the submarine. At the moment of overlap, a water curtain suddenly rose on the water surface, and the water curtain was 50 meters wide. Domi Gao!It was produced by the missile explosion!

The sound of the missile explosion covered the entire sonar screen, and it took more than ten seconds for the sonar screen to return to normal. At this time, the underwater light spots became three, and Liu Heng said hurriedly: "The light spots became three, We hit one!"

This sentence aroused the cheers of everyone. At this time, Xu Xin said: "We should put away the pendant sonar, and then return to the voyage. There is not much fuel. If we don't fly back, we will fall into the sea!"

Liu Heng hurriedly said: "But there are still three goals!"

Xu Xin shook his head and said, "I can't control that much anymore, we can only return and let the follow-up helicopter take over for us."

Liu Heng nodded helplessly, and pressed the "retract" button. The sling was slowly raised under the drive of the motor, and the hanging sonar was also retracted immediately. Xu Xin then operated the helicopter and flew towards the Qinglong Ship, halfway At that time, I met the carrier-based aircraft of the "Xinsu II" landing ship that took over from them.

Xu Xin and Liu Heng greeted Fan Wei, the captain of the carrier-based aircraft, and Yang Hu, the sonar operator, and then returned to the Qinglong ship. After a smooth landing, they were invited to the command room. They praised it, which made the two of them blush, and said that the sinking of the Japanese submarine was due to everyone's credit.

Yuan Long smiled and said: "The Qinglong ship has just entered service, and it has not even caught up with the sea battle in the East China Sea that wiped out the British Far East Fleet. You have achieved the first victory for our warship! You are the heroes of the entire ship, so don't worry about it. that's humble."

At this moment, the voice of Fan Wei, the pilot of the Xinsu No. [-] landing ship carrier aircraft, suddenly came from the communicator: "Reporting to the captain, we seem to know what the underwater thing is?"
