With the roar on the tail platform, a coaxially rotating Ka-27 helicopter flew into the sky.On the Harbin, a Z-[-] helicopter also flew into the sky, and the anti-submarine exercise officially kicked off.
The Perry-class ship at the tail was still watching. Captain Thomas looked at the line-shaped formation, and suddenly a thought came to his mind.
His mission this time is to cause trouble for the drills of both sides!
Now, the Soviet Union has weakened, but two countries that pose a threat to the United States have emerged, Iraq and China!When the two countries conduct a joint exercise at such a sensitive time, it is clear that it is for the Americans to see.
Although the opponents took out their most powerful weapons, in Thomas' eyes, they were nothing at all.
Ever seen the US Navy formation?Have you ever seen what is the Aegis system?What is a carrier aircraft?This little warship is also willing to take it out.
Although there is also a [-]-ton frigate under his feet, this does not affect the superiority of the US Navy in Thomas' heart. Even against the Soviet Navy, they are not afraid.
"Go forward at full speed, turn the left rudder, and go around to the front of the opponent's formation!" Thomas said.
The opponent is so slow, it is better to let yourself play a game with them!Thomas thought.
The Perey-class frigate also uses lm2500 gas turbines. On the ocean, the warships of the three countries all use the same power, which is also a miracle. The Hedden class of Iraq, the Harbin of China, and the Perry class, Both are lm2500 gas turbines.
However, the difference is that both the Harbin and the Perry class have a displacement of 2000 tons, so their maximum speed is only 35 knots, but the displacement of the Hedden class is only over [-] tons, so its maximum speed , reached [-] knots!
Thomas looked at the slow-moving warships in anti-submarine warfare. The most taboo thing in anti-submarine warfare is noise, so they all reduced their speed. At this time, it's time to make trouble for them!
Two lm2500 gas turbines exploded with a power of more than 3 horsepower, driving a five-blade propeller at the back, and the entire warship began to accelerate.
"Noise from the rear," the sonarman reported.
Then, the watchman on the top of the bridge reported: "The American warship started to accelerate, and they are charging towards us!"
Damn Americans, what are they trying to do?At this time, the Hedden class was on the far left, the Hyundai class, the Luhu class and the Jiangwei class were lined up, and they almost all found that the American warship behind, the warship that had always been haunted, rushed up.
"The anti-submarine exercise is over, speed up and prepare for battle!" Abdul ordered.
The actions of the Americans are very unusual now. Therefore, Abdul issued a combat order. If the Americans insist on doing so, he doesn't mind putting a few 130mm shells on the opponent's route first.
The way to deal with hooligans is to give him a brick before the opponent shows his knife!
The first thousand and seventy-seventh chapters at sea
From the chimney at the top of the modern class, huge black smoke is coming out. The modern class that uses boilers not only slows down, but its acceleration ability is definitely not as good as that of a gas turbine.
The advantages of Luhu class and Hedden class are revealed.Especially the Hedden class, the officers and soldiers of the Iraqi Navy have operated this warship for several years and are very familiar with its performance, so the Hedden class has the fastest acceleration.
The gas turbine does not emit black smoke. When it accelerates, it still emits black smoke because of incomplete combustion.
Like a sharp sword, the Perry class rushed towards the scattered formation, like a wolf rushing into a flock of sheep.
When conducting exercises in other countries, it is already very impolite to approach the exercise sea area, but like now, attacking the opponent's exercise formation is simply a challenge, a naked provocation.
You must know that in a war, it is almost impossible for the two sides to see each other with the naked eye. The emergence of anti-ship missiles has made the battle between the two sides out of the traditional line of sight.
And now, the United States wants to put pressure on them. In this world, the United States is the boss!
Although the Perry class is a frigate, its displacement is almost the same as that of the Luhu class destroyer. Moreover, the standard air defense missiles carried on it make its air defense performance similar to that of the Hyundai class.The industrial crystallization of the United States for many years is unmatched by any country in terms of navy.
Of course, they have also cultivated a kind of arrogance, such as now.
The modern class is still accelerating, but the Perry class behind has already rushed up.
Up to now, the other party's intentions are already very obvious. The other party is here to find fault. What they do is provocation!
At this time, if Qusay is here.I'm afraid I will regret that I removed the 130mm naval gun at the back, otherwise, they can now use the 130mm naval gun behind their buttocks to conduct deterrent tests.
The front 130mm naval gun.Unable to turn in last direction. The AK630's 6-barreled near-anti-aircraft gun does not have a shooting dead angle, and now, as the opponent gradually approaches, it may be within the shooting range, but the performance of this gun is too powerful.
Moreover, once the fire is really fired, then there will be a conflict between the two sides.A kind of conflict that can rise to a very high level. This kind of conflict can be large or small.
So, at the last minute, Abdul held back.
"Immediately report the information to President Qusay. Ask President Qusay for orders," Abdul said.
Since they are all equipped with satellite communication systems, they can communicate with the country at any time. Under the current situation, the conflict may expand at any time. Therefore, what countermeasures the formation will take will have to wait for President Qusay's order.
Just after the Perry class approached the formation.Suddenly, a beautiful full left rudder, the hull tilted, turning huge waves.From the side of the formation, rushed over.
The Perry class completed a big turn smartly and came to the front of the formation. Then, with full left and right rudders, as if they didn't care about the physical feelings of the crew members on board, they danced a ballet at sea.
This is the maneuvering of warships at sea. Although it is not as fast as the maneuvering of fighter planes, it is also of practical significance. But now, these movements of it have only one purpose, which is to interfere with the normal exercises of the current naval formation!
Now they are conducting anti-submarine exercises. In this anti-submarine exercise, a quiet environment is required. With the maneuvering of the Perry-class S, there are many underwater noises, which keep coming, so that the sonar of the ships of the two countries' joint exercises , lost its sensitivity, not to mention the Oscar class, even the Ming class, I'm afraid I can't find it.
Damn Americans!
"Woo!" The Perry class blew its whistle braggingly, as if it was indescribably refreshing.
"Report, President Qusay's order came down, asking us to defend the dignity of our navy, but to control the level of conflict." Soon, the order came back, but this order still leaves the question of how to do it to the Gave it to Abdul.
"The naval guns are ready, and the radar is used to illuminate the target." Abdul said.
The head of the Hyundai class has a double-barreled 130mm naval gun, which is a kind of ferocious firepower. If you don’t use anti-ship missiles, you can use this kind of artillery to pour more than 1 shells in one minute, which is enough What the other party suffers, you must know that this is no longer the era of thick ships and cannons, and the decks of various warships are far less thick than before.
Following Abdul's order, the naval gun on the huge cast steel base began to rotate, the automatic loader inside the gun barrel had already loaded the shells into place, and the sea water began to cool the gun barrel, ready to be at any time. Firing state.
The fire control system of the naval gun also started to work, aiming at the warship in front.
"Report, we were photographed by the opponent's radar." Thomas received the report. At the same time, he also saw that the naval gun on the huge warship had turned its muzzle and was aiming at him.
Do Iraqis want to play for real?
Being illuminated by radar is very similar to air combat. The next moment, the opponent's shells are likely to come over.Still, Thomas was pretty sure the Iraqis were just scaring themselves.
If they dared to fire a cannonball, the conflict between the two sides would escalate.
Although the Clark Air Force Base stationed by the United States on the nearest Philippine Islands is now closed, the U.S. military presence in the Western Pacific is still very large.
The Americans are very depressed. When the situation in the Western Pacific is becoming more and more important, a few months ago, they were at the air force base in the Philippines, but because of the eruption of Mount Pinatubo, the volcanic ash completely covered the air force base. They had to give up here.
Otherwise, fighter planes of the U.S. Air Force will fly here at any time.
The Iraqis want to play the trick of radar photography?Then play with them!
In front of the Perry class, there is also a 76mm naval gun. You have it and I have it. Let's play together!
Although it was a one-on-four, Thomas wasn't afraid at all.
However, Thomas didn't know that there were two submarines underwater!
Iraq's Oscar 2-class nuclear submarine has been tracking the American warship during this period of time. It has observed that the Chinese diesel-electric submarine occupies a favorable launching position.
