Chapter 735 Are there really nuclear weapons? (asking for monthly votes)
The battle has finally begun!!
After two rounds of challenges, this is the first time that the Russian army has launched a direct attack on an enemy submarine.
[Summon maritime anti-submarine patrol aircraft for support! ]
Seeing the submarine passing through the crack in the sea, Gu Ji decisively summoned the anti-submarine aircraft rewarded by the system with his mind.
On the cold Arctic ice field.
A deafening roar broke the silence, and a silver-gray medium-sized aircraft slowly taxied on the abandoned runway.
The huge tires crushed the frozen soil, making a "crunching" sound, and the speed was getting faster and faster, like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, soaring into the air.
In an instant, the snow outside the runway was blown everywhere by the strong airflow, forming a sea of white fog.
Gu Ji's vision in the upper right corner appeared simultaneously.
Just look at this anti-submarine patrol aircraft, which is flexibly adjusting its posture in the air. The missiles and machine guns on its wings are flashing cold light in the sun, like a warrior in silver armor, exuding a heart-pounding sense of oppression.
next second.
His field of vision switched to gray and black, which was the high-altitude reconnaissance image of the anti-submarine aircraft.
In the icy Arctic Ocean, huge pieces of ice are floating on the sea surface, and a huge naval fleet is sailing rapidly, like moving icebergs.
It was the Royal Norwegian Navy that came to pursue the Russian submarine.
The fleet consists of several warships.
Including two Shield-class missile boats, four Hawk-class missile torpedo boats, a Yorkso-class minesweeper and a Whydah-class minelayer.
The core located in the center of the fleet is the weapon that Akelimovich is most worried about: the Nansen-class frigate!
Suddenly, a sharp alarm sounded throughout the Russian submarine.
"Rocket depth charges incoming!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Accompanied by a series of deafening muffled sounds, a large number of depth bombs previously fired by the Nansen frigate exploded one after another in the deep sea.
Fortunately, the "Losharik" dived deep enough.
The shock wave reached 500 meters and just caused the boat to shake.
But under the high-altitude reconnaissance of anti-submarine aircraft.
The shock wave generated by the deep-sea explosion broke the ice into pieces, causing huge waves on the sea surface and leaving behind white waves, like blooming white lotuses.
This is enough to prove the power of this wave of anti-submarine rockets.
If it is really hit, no matter what level or tonnage of the submarine it is, it will be blown into scrap metal.
"Captain, active sonar lock, the enemy submarine is right behind us, depth 300, straight line distance 1800 feet!"
"Fire!!"
"Gululu..."
"Weapons bay firing normally! Torpedo route 2-1-9!"
The depth charge is over.
The Russian sonar operator immediately locked onto the location of the mysterious sect's submarine.
Following Akelimovich's order, Gu Ji only heard the sound of bubbles coming from the bottom of the submarine.
What he cared about was not what torpedoes the Russians launched.
It’s sonar positioning!
After seeing the accurate depth and distance signal, Gu Ji immediately opened the ORS satellite group map positioning, controlled the anti-submarine aircraft, and launched the sonar network.
"Hey—!"
The weapon bay slowly opened, and countless silver metal bullets fell into the sea from the sky like dumplings, popping out razor-like antennas and transforming into sonar detection locators.
In the blink of an eye.
Gu Ji has mastered all the current developments in this sea area.
The "Losharik" submarine, the mysterious sect submarine, and even the torpedoes that are approaching at high speed!
As the voiceprint is constantly updated.
The position of the enemy submarine was also constantly changing, rapidly shortening from the previous straight-line distance of 1800 feet to 1400 feet.
It was obvious that these two torpedoes were fired by the Losharik.
Why did the enemy submarine come here to die?
Gu Ji once again confirmed the current position of the Russian submarine, which was just below the Norwegian Navy fleet.
so……
The mysterious sect intends to lure the torpedoes towards the Norwegian Navy fleet!
"100 feet, 80, torpedo is about to enter terminal guidance, damn, target lost..."
The soldier of the combat team gritted his teeth and slapped the equipment table, then turned around and shouted to the red-faced fat man, "Captain, the sea noise caused by the Norwegian fleet's sailing is too loud, causing the torpedo sonar guidance to lose its direction!"
"No hurry, adjust the trajectory. I don't believe this guy can stay down there forever!"
Akelimovich sneered.
But the enemy's goal has been achieved.
The Norwegian Navy quickly locked onto the two torpedoes they fired and fired rocket depth charges in retaliation.
However, the shock wave of the explosion also forced the submarines of the mysterious sect to flee from the noise area.
And this is the opportunity that Gu Ji has been waiting for.
Fire!!
In a flash, Gu Ji released all the torpedoes and depth charges in the weapons bay at once.
More than a dozen light and medium torpedoes fell into the water from high altitude.
The tail blades turned, and after adjusting the direction, it quickly attacked the enemy submarine locked by the sonar network.
"Buzz!"
"Not good! A sea-based anti-submarine aircraft has been detected dropping a large number of torpedoes!"
The "Losharik" submarine is worthy of being Russia's most advanced super nuclear submarine. As soon as the torpedo entered the sea, it was detected by the combat team.
"A lot of torpedoes?"
Akelimovich's face suddenly changed. He rushed to the screen and stared at the red targets. "Could it be that the Norwegian Navy has no intention of leaving us any chance of survival?"
"No! Captain, according to the trajectory of the ballistic missile, the target of the torpedo and depth charge is not us! It's the enemy submarine!"
"Oh?"
Hearing his subordinate change his words, the red-faced fat man raised his eyebrows, as if he was analyzing the attitudes of Norway and NATO in his mind.
But in fact.
The Norwegian Navy was also in a panic at this time.
The anti-submarine aircraft operation page in the upper right corner of Gu Ji's screen has reminded him that the current anti-submarine aircraft has been illuminated by the fire control radar of the Nansen frigate.
This means that Norway may open fire at any time.
This is actually quite normal.
An anti-submarine aircraft of unknown origin suddenly appeared overhead and dropped so many weapons and ammunition at once. Anyone would be nervous.
After all, anti-submarine aircraft are also equipped with air-to-ground missiles.
Fortunately, this is the airspace of the Arctic Ocean, otherwise the Norwegian Air Force fighter jets would have flown over and surrounded him by now.
To avoid a recurrence of the situation in Brazil.
After launching all the underwater weapons at once, Gu Ji quickly used his mind to control it to quickly fly away from the battlefield.
"Captain, the anti-submarine aircraft has disappeared from the sonar!"
"It looks like it's gone!"
Aklimovich narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but glance at Gu Ji when he said this.
It seems that it has been guessed that this anti-submarine aircraft was not sent by the Norwegian Navy.
Because if the two belong to the same camp.
There is absolutely no need to evacuate so quickly.
And with so many Norwegian Navy ships on the scene, why would they resort to using an anti-submarine aircraft to drop ammunition?
"Enemy submarines are launching counterattack torpedoes!"
"It's useless. We are locked by more than a dozen torpedoes at the same time. There is no way to shake them off!"
Who would have thought.
The enemy submarine that was previously chasing the "Losharik" suddenly reversed roles and became the one being bullied.
no way.
Keeping the mysterious sect will only lead to constant friction between the Russian Army and the Norwegian Navy, and the war will sooner or later expand.
So Gu Ji must get rid of it as soon as possible.
After all, according to the information obtained from the red-faced fat man in the second round, the mysterious sect’s Cold War-era submarine is likely to have a large number of nuclear weapons left!
If we really push it into a corner, we will launch a nuclear strike.
Then all his efforts in this round would be wasted.
"150, 130, at least three torpedoes have entered the terminal guidance, it can't escape!"
Every number the sonar soldier shouted out was like the death knell for the enemy.
Gu Ji held his breath and concentrated.
He stared closely at the control system of the anti-submarine aircraft until the red dot landed in front of the target.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Silence for half a second.
A series of loud noises erupted again in the deep sea.
"Hit! All three shots hit!"
"The enemy submarine was eliminated?"
"It seems that this deep-sea catastrophe is finally coming to an end..."
For a moment, all the Russian submarine soldiers couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
To them.
The biggest security threat on the seafloor has been solved.
As for the remaining Norwegian Navy, they can either resolve the issue through diplomatic negotiations between the two sides, or dive at full speed and escape, trying to delay until their own naval fleet arrives to support them.
"No! The target's wake has not stopped..."
Just when everyone thought that things were about to end, a young sonar operator suddenly shouted.
Akelimovich's face changed slightly.
I immediately turned on the speaker so that everyone could hear the sound reflected by the sonar.
"Gululu..."
"He's still moving! The submarine isn't sinking!"
"How is this possible? With three torpedoes hitting at the same time, even our Type 955 and Xia's Type 096 may not be able to remain unscathed!"
The first mate exclaimed.
The Russian 955 Borei-class and the Xia country's 096 Tang-class that he mentioned are all strategic-class ballistic missile nuclear-powered submarines. They are the last trump cards of superpowers, with a displacement of a terrifying 2.4 tons.
In contrast.
The displacement of the "Losharik" is only about 3,000 tons, a difference of eight times! !
Gu Ji was also extremely shocked.
Three torpedoes failed to sink the enemy submarine. There is only one conclusion:
Insufficient firepower!
In fact, this is also the reason why he threw all the torpedo depth bombs of the anti-submarine aircraft right at the beginning.
Because the anti-submarine aircraft is too small.
Compared with the length of submarines, which are often tens or hundreds of meters, the patrol anti-submarine aircraft converted from a medium-sized civil aviation passenger plane is less than thirty meters.
The length of heavy torpedoes is at least six or seven meters, and the Poseidon nuclear torpedo is a terrifying 30 meters, which ordinary aircraft cannot carry at all.
Therefore, anti-submarine aircraft are generally only equipped with light and medium-sized torpedoes, with the purpose of forcing submarines out of the water.
This type of torpedo has a short range, slow speed, and relatively average power.
But it can still severely damage submarines.
But the mysterious sect was able to survive, which shows that its own defense capabilities are also extremely abnormal, and it is very likely to be a submarine of a larger size class.
"It's not that it's uninjured. The active sonar scan shows that it is constantly rising. The outer hull must have been deformed by the explosion, so it can't withstand the water pressure of 300 meters!"
Akelimovich has rich experience.
Soon, a clue was discovered. "If this is the case, then the result will be no different from being sunk."
Hear this.
Gu Ji felt a little more balanced.
Once a submarine surfaces, facing frigates and destroyers, it is like a mouse seeing a cat, and it is doomed to die.
"Captain, the base just sent a message that support from the Arctic base will arrive soon!"
"Okay! Pilot, let's get ready to surface. I want to see who has taken over our submarine!"
When he heard that someone from his own side had arrived, Akimovich became more confident.
As the submarine continued to approach the sea surface, the communication antenna extended from the command tower.
The red-faced fat man picked up the satellite phone and was about to make a formal call to the base.
But I didn't expect it.
The red alert strikes again.
"Captain, we detected it underwater, oh damn...it's a cruise missile!!"
"What did you say!?"
that moment.
Gu Ji and Akimovich shouted almost at the same time.
Even Evan froze in place.
Cruise missiles are not comparable to anti-submarine rockets. They have greater power, longer range, and more precise strike capabilities. They are mainly used for tactical strikes and ground and anti-ship attacks.
the most important is.
Cruise missiles can carry nuclear warheads! !
"It's true! Just now, the enemy submarine launched a cruise missile from 40 meters underwater while surfacing!!"
The operator had just finished speaking.
Gu Ji saw from the anti-submarine aircraft reconnaissance far away from the battlefield that a dazzling light was shooting out from the surface of the Arctic Ocean.
Like an arrow shot from a bow, it cut through the sky at an astonishing speed, leaving behind a long trail of white smoke, as if a giant dragon was soaring in the sky.
After drawing a graceful parabolic arc, it headed straight for the Norwegian Nansen-class frigate not far away.
The moment approaching the warship's early warning range.
The Aegis system immediately activated the ship-borne close-in defense artillery, instantly spraying out dense bullets that poured out like raindrops, dyeing the sky a fiery red and forming an indestructible fire net.
However, the cruise missile still rushed forward at an astonishing speed.
The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer.
At this critical moment, there was a loud "boom".
The close-in defense gun finally intercepted successfully.
The missile suddenly exploded a hundred meters above the frigate.
The flames from the explosion illuminated the surrounding sea, making the sky and the sea surface as bright as day. The air waves rolled towards the sea surface, forming circles of huge ripples.
Gu Ji and others hid in the "Losharik" submarine.
Even through the dozens of meters deep sea water, one can still feel the terrifying power of the cruise missile.
"It can launch cruise missiles underwater. This means it is at least a strategic missile submarine, Gould. If things are really as you said, the enemy is most likely operating the 667A that was lost during the Cold War!"
Akimovich's red face had lost all color at this moment, and he was even more panicked than when he was locked by the enemy's torpedo.
"667A..."
Gu Ji kept mumbling, "In other words, they really have ballistic nuclear missiles?!"
