Dominate South Asia

Benefits are mutually exchanged. Pakistan shares its strategic weapons with China, so China certainly cannot just sit back and enjoy the fruits of its labor. It must also pay something.

"We need submarine-launched ballistic missiles." Muhammad said, "We need your help to launch this ballistic missile from a submarine."

The three-in-one nuclear strike force includes air, ground, and underwater. Among them, submarines carry ballistic missiles and cruise in the depths of the ocean at any time, ready to fire a fatal blow to the opponent at any time. This is a common scene in the Cold War.

Pakistan naturally needs to maintain such strength, and now, Pakistan has begun to build its own attack nuclear submarines under the technology output of China. After the ballistic missile technology was exposed, ballistic missile nuclear submarines were also put on the agenda by Muhammad.

If you rely on your own research and development, there will be many detours to take, like India in later generations, which has not succeeded for so many years. As a result, a weirdo came out, setting up a launcher on the helicopter platform behind its own frigate to launch ballistic missiles, which is also unique in the world.

China, on the other hand, has only mastered the technology of launching ballistic missiles underwater after many tests, and the Xia-class ballistic missile nuclear submarine developed by China has also entered service.

Pakistan provides its own ballistic missile technology and launch vehicles, and China helps Pakistan realize the ability to have submarine-launched missiles. Both sides are mutually beneficial.

"At the same time, I also hope that we can work together to develop two new models." Muhammad said: "The first one is to increase the range. We hope to develop intercontinental ballistic missiles with a range of more than 10,000 kilometers based on this missile. The second one is to study and use our current ballistic missiles. Carry out tactics to attack aircraft carriers."

Ballistic missiles attack aircraft carriers!

In later generations, ballistic missiles attacking aircraft carriers has always been a topic that military fans talk about with great relish. The warhead with a speed of more than ten times the speed of sound is definitely not something that the Navy's Aegis system can intercept. Even the TMD system, which is advertised as being so powerful, cannot effectively intercept ballistic missiles. As long as a small maneuvering change of trajectory can turn the interceptor missile into an uncontrolled rocket.

However. It is not easy to hit an aircraft carrier with a ballistic missile. Also, due to the high speed, it is difficult for the warhead to receive external information during the falling process. It does not matter if it hits a fixed ground target, but when it hits a moving target, the aircraft carrier formation has already moved during the flight of the ballistic missile. Therefore, the warhead must receive new information and change its trajectory during the flight. Only then can it find the aircraft carrier formation locked before the launch.

Moreover, high-speed flight leads to a strong Doppler effect and thermal effect, which makes the radar guidance head and other locking devices of traditional anti-ship missiles ineffective.

These are all various technical problems, which seem difficult to solve, so countless experts claim that it is pure nonsense to use ballistic missiles to hit aircraft carriers.

As a result, in the military parade celebrating the 70th anniversary of the victory of the World Anti-Fascist War, China publicly announced that it has equipped two types of ballistic missiles to hit aircraft carriers! When this news came out, countless military fans were boiling. This is simply a nemesis tailor-made for American aircraft carriers!

In this regard, the countermeasure given by the United States is that if it is attacked by such ballistic missiles in a war, it is equivalent to a nuclear attack! It will be retaliated by the United States!

From this countermeasure, we can see that the US aircraft carrier fleet is indeed very impatient with this kind of ballistic missile that can attack aircraft carriers.

Think about the future, the American aircraft carrier fleet marched into the Taiwan Strait with a show of force, and the mainland had no countermeasures. This gap in military strength forced China to endure and then accumulate strength.

And now. Although Pakistan also has an aircraft carrier fleet, it is still slightly insufficient to confront the US aircraft carrier fleet, so Muhammad has to adopt this alternative way to study the plan of using ballistic missiles to attack aircraft carriers.

China must also have interests in this regard, and the two sides can be said to hit it off.

Sure enough, after hearing what Muhammad said, the Prime Minister nodded immediately: "Absolutely, I agree with this!"

The hegemony of the United States is based on a powerful aircraft carrier fleet, and China, because it has always faced the military threat of the Soviet Union on land, focuses on the development of the army, and the navy is very weak, and it is simply unable to fully confront the United States.

And now, the new plan proposed by Muhammad has actually appeared in China, and China is also demonstrating whether this plan is feasible. With Muhammad's proposal, joint research and development by both sides is a good choice!

Aircraft carriers, in fact, if you really want to fight against the opponent's aircraft carriers, you still have to have the same aircraft carrier power!

Thinking of this, the Prime Minister sighed and said: "It would be great if our country also had an aircraft carrier. Pakistan's progress makes us look at it with admiration."

Pakistan is already building their own aircraft carriers. Now, even catapults are available. The entire aircraft carrier is in the outfitting stage. It seems that it will be able to be launched and put into service as early as the end of this year or next year.

China still has a long way to go. Apart from learning a lot of experience from manufacturing in Pakistan, China's aircraft carrier is still just a dream for the time being.

Historically, China has been tireless in its pursuit of aircraft carriers. It purchased decommissioned aircraft carriers from Australia and other countries and dismantled them for research. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the three Kiev-class ships were dismantled in China to master them. First-hand experience, and the most important thing is to buy back the empty Varyag. After floating on the dock for nearly ten years, it took on a new look under China's technological transformation and joined the Chinese Navy. China's first ship.

But now, history has changed. The Soviet Union has not yet disintegrated, and those aircraft carriers are still in the hands of the Soviet Navy. China, for the time being, only got one Melbourne for research, and the rest were obtained from the Pakistan Navy. Technology.

I wonder when the Chinese Navy will be able to have fixed-wing aviation formations!

"If you are urgent, we can sell one of our aircraft carriers to your country at a low price." Mhamad said.

Sell ​​to yourself? The Prime Minister was suddenly stunned. The Endeavor now owned by Pakistan is a treasure. How can it be sold to China?

"Our Dauntless ship with a displacement of 30,000 tons can be sold to you for US$250 million." Mhammad said.

Dauntless? When did the aircraft carrier Dreadnought appear in Pakistan’s navy? The Prime Minister was still puzzled, and he finally understood after hearing the words of the Ministry of National Defense official who came with him.

"It's the Indian Navy's Virat that Pakistan captured last time when it attacked Calcutta." The person next to him whispered, his eyes full of longing.

After being captured by Pakistan, the aircraft carrier Virat participated in the battle of Visakhapatnam and temporarily acted as an amphibious assault ship. However, during operation, the Pakistan Navy still found that the performance of this aircraft carrier was too poor.

The jump deck causes the front deck to be tilted, making it impossible to store more aircraft. The capacity under the hangar is also limited, making it troublesome to operate. It is not as cost-effective as Pakistan's own new amphibious assault ship.

As for serving as an aircraft carrier, let alone mention it. Pakistan has already analyzed that it will be more cost-effective only if the displacement exceeds 50,000 tons. Pakistan is currently at the scale of two aircraft carriers. If it starts construction again in the future, it will have a better cost-effectiveness ratio. The displacement needs to be relaxed to 70,000 tons.

Under this circumstance, this aircraft carrier, which has been named Dreadnought by Pakistan, has become useless. Now that China has expressed its intention to want an aircraft carrier, it is better to sell this aircraft carrier to China!

Although this was captured by Pakistan and the two sides have a good friendship, after all, Pakistan also invested a lot of military expenditures in the attack on Calcutta. It is impossible to give it to China for free. Two hundred and fifty million US dollars sounds very expensive. It's actually not expensive. You know, in later generations, after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, China purchased two modern-class destroyers with a displacement of 7,000 tons from the Soviet Union, which cost one billion US dollars! Pakistan sold this aircraft carrier to China for only half the price of a modern-class aircraft carrier, which can be regarded as half sale and half giveaway.

"It seems like this aircraft carrier can only take off and land Sea Harriers, right?" asked an official from the Ministry of National Defense who followed the Prime Minister.

China does not have the Sea Harrier, and has no plans to introduce this kind of fighting chicken that looks beautiful but is actually very fucked up among fighter jets. If it can only carry Sea Harrier, then there is no use for China to buy it.

"Of course not. This aircraft carrier can still take off and land Tomcat fighter jets." Hamad said: "The British have done experiments more than ten years ago."

The Endeavor's original displacement was only over 30,000 tons. After improvements, the displacement increased to over 40,000 tons, allowing it to operate Tomcat fighters. Therefore, the Intrepid, with a displacement of 30,000 tons, is fully capable of taking off and landing Tomcat fighters. Cat fighter.

Back then, after the ski-jump aircraft carrier was built, the British conducted experiments. The U.S. Navy's Tomcat fighter jets could use a ski-jump to take off from the deck!

It’s just that the Tomcat was too expensive at the time, and the British were extremely proud of their Sea Harrier. In addition, the hangar below was originally designed for the Sea Harrier. If Tomcat fighters were operated, the number of operations would be even further reduced. Therefore, the British The people finally chose their Sea Harrier carrier-based aircraft. As a result, in the Falklands War, the "powerful" combat capabilities of this fighter aircraft were thoroughly proved. The British summed up their experience and returned to the conventional plan for the new aircraft carrier. Come up.

This aircraft carrier is already useless to Pakistan, but to the Chinese Navy, it is extremely precious. (To be continued ~^~)
