Dominate South Asia

Like the development of other weapons in the United States, the United States does not develop complex models to deal with threats. The torpedoes equipped by the U.S. Navy are mainly one kind. This MK48 torpedo continuously improves the software to improve the performance of the torpedo. There is a substantial improvement.

This torpedo is 5.85 meters long, 533 mm in diameter, and has a speed of 55 knots. Like other torpedoes, it uses a thermal power swash plate machine, uses Otto 2 fuel, has a system power of 500 horsepower, and has the characteristics of high energy density, low noise, and no wake. The torpedo warhead is an explosive warhead with a charge of 100-150 kilograms. A single mine hit can sink a large submarine or medium-sized surface ship.

As the torpedo sails forward, the line dragged by the tail is also continuously released. This is a wire-guided torpedo and the most common method of torpedoes. The wire can transmit the target data obtained by the submarine behind, making the attack sharper!

At this time, this deadly torpedo was sailing quickly towards the target on the opposite side. The propeller at the tail rotated, stirring up countless cavitation bubbles.

Thors gritted his teeth and listened to the sonar operator's report. One kilometer, eight hundred meters, five hundred meters, three hundred meters, the torpedo was getting closer and closer to him!

"Stop the engine, raise the tail rudder, and continue to dive. All personnel must gather in the front cabin! Release the air curtain interference!" Towers shouted.

At this time, he was already sailing at the designed diving depth of 200 meters, and in order to get rid of the opponent, Thors had to continue diving!

Following his order, the tail propeller stopped rotating, and the tail rudder moved, causing the submarine's bow to sink. At the same time, more submariners ran to the front, causing the bow to move downwards faster, and the huge submarine , and began to continue diving.

at the same time. On one side of the submarine, dense air bubbles are sprayed out from countless thin tubes. These bubbles form a tight air curtain on one side of the submarine. This air curtain will block the transmission of sound and confuse the opponent's sonar. . It's like a fighter plane firing thermal bombs.

When the engine is shut down and the tail propeller stops rotating, the biggest source of noise is also lost.

The control system of the digital circuit was briefly confused. The torpedo was confused by the loss of its target. According to the preset program, it was only three hundred meters away from the target. In such a short distance, the underwater target's maneuverability was Pretty limited, so. It chose to continue sailing in a straight line!

After passing through the air curtain wall, the noise behind it completely disappeared, and the torpedo continued to sail for fifty meters. I chose to self-destruct.

The attack failed!

"What's going on?" Captain Locke asked. He was very confident in the MK48 torpedo, but the attack failed.

"The target radiated an air curtain wall, blocking the signal. After the signal disappeared, our sonar lost the target." the sonar operator reported.

How is that possible! The distance is only a few hundred meters. In this case, the sonar effect is quite good, but the sound signal is actually lost? Then there is only one possibility, the other party shuts down the engine. There is no sound!

Do you think this will make you helpless? Captain Locke couldn't help but sneer: "We are conducting a dragnet search in this sea area. Release the signal buoy and ask for support."

Turning off the engine can temporarily disappear from the sonar, but the other party will also lose its maneuverability. This Los Angeles-class submarine can search out the other party.

and. The opponent only has one submarine, but we also have surface ships and anti-submarine aircraft. The opponent absolutely cannot escape! If the opponent remains immobile, the final result will be to use up all the power. By then I couldn't move even if I wanted to.

The opponent was a diesel-electric submarine, which Captain Locke was absolutely sure of.

Although they are temporarily unable to float and communicate. But there is another way for submarines to communicate. They use disposable communication buoys and release them. The buoys will float to the surface and send messages.

It has dived to 230 meters underwater. Every ten meters of descent will increase the pressure by one atmosphere. At this time, it has exceeded the submarine's design depth. Thors is still persisting.

During World War II, the designed diving depth of submarines at that time was only more than 100 meters. Sometimes, in order to avoid attacks, they would even hide at a depth of 300 meters underwater, which far exceeded the designed depth of the submarine. fine.

But now, under extreme conditions, even if the submarine dives to a depth of three hundred meters, there will be no problem. All cabins have reported the situation, and the submarine is currently in good condition.

The only problem is that the maneuver just now consumed another 5% of the power. At this time, as long as he makes any noise, he will be discovered by the opponent and attracted an attack. Moreover, the opponent will definitely call a large number of people on the water surface. When ships and planes come over, it will be more difficult for our side to escape.

what to do? Thors was thinking that as the captain of the boat, he must be responsible for the lives of more than 60 people on the boat, and he must also fight for the honor of the Pakistan Navy!

"The American submarine is searching for us, but it is only at a depth of 200 meters and will not find us yet." The sonar soldier continued to report.

The depth difference determines that the Americans are doing useless work for the time being, but as long as the Americans find that they are going in the wrong direction, they will definitely change the depth. By then, they may meet on a narrow road.

If you want to retreat, you must first get rid of the American submarine! The only way is to injure or even destroy the opponent! Thors suddenly had an idea in his mind.

"Start the motor, full power, right full rudder, sail to the east!" Thors said: "Restore the diving depth of 200 meters!"

Full power, this is simply to invite the opponent's attack! The deputy captain's facial muscles twitched, but he still didn't speak.

At this time, the US submarine had just searched far away. The opponent searched back and forth at a distance of ten nautical miles, and now it was just the farthest. As long as the engine of our side starts, the opponent will chase us!

As the motor starts, the propeller begins to rotate rapidly. The high-speed rotating propeller makes a rushing sound, which is instantly transmitted far through the sea water.

"Found the target, ten nautical miles behind!" The sonar soldier on the Los Angeles-class submarine reported excitedly.

"Left full rudder, chase after it!" Locke shouted excitedly.

Sure enough, the opponent still couldn't hold his breath and wanted to get away at high speed? Don't joke! The maximum speed of a diesel-electric submarine is only 20 knots underwater, while an attack nuclear submarine can easily reach 30 knots. It is a huge mistake for the opponent to want to escape at this time!

The nuclear submarine turned around and started chasing in the direction of the target. In order to catch up, the Los Angeles-class submarine turned on the maximum power, and the propeller turned rapidly, pushing the submarine, and soon reached a high speed of thirty knots.

Chase! As long as you can catch up to a distance of five nautical miles, you can launch the MK48 torpedo again! Locke has ordered the officers and soldiers in the torpedo compartment in front to prepare four torpedoes. This time, they will be fired at intervals of five seconds. Even if the opponent uses the air curtain wall again, at most one or two torpedoes can be avoided. It is impossible to avoid all four!

A distance of ten nautical miles is a matter of twenty minutes for a submarine sailing at high speed. Locke is already imagining the scene of a torpedo hitting the opponent's submarine.

In the past twenty years, the captains of American submarines have no actual combat experience. Even during the Cold War, when the two sides confronted each other underwater, they never launched torpedoes. After the end of the Cold War, the sovereignty of the United States in the ocean was sacred and inviolable. Even the Russian Navy had to shrink. How could the United States find a decent opponent! This time, Locke may become the first captain to hit an enemy submarine with a torpedo in 20 years!

Thinking of this, he became even more excited.

Chase, keep chasing!

However, half an hour later, he found that something was wrong.

Ten minutes ago, the sonar soldier reported that the other party was moving away quickly. Locke should have been alert at that time, but he was very excited at that time. Now, after chasing for ten minutes, when the sonar soldier reported that he had lost the target, he suddenly woke up.

Damn, this is a trap!

When you are the captain of a nuclear submarine for a long time, your mind will be confused. The other party uses a diesel-electric submarine! High-speed underwater sailing is fatal. All electricity will be consumed in an hour! And if the other party has been sailing at a high speed for half an hour just now, plus the electricity consumed before, the other party should have run out of electricity!

As long as a mature captain will never make such a mistake, then there is only one possibility, the other party's departure is an illusion!

Underwater, everything depends on sound to explore the enemy, and sound can also be faked.

For example, just now, Thors accelerated his submarine to the maximum, the propeller rotated at the highest speed, and the hull sailed to the east, giving the opponent the feeling that he was leaving at high speed, and then slowly reduced the speed. In the opponent's feeling, he was not slowing down, but leaving at the highest speed. Even the most experienced sonar operator might not be able to hear it.

In this way, Thors tempted the opponent's submarine to chase, and then he dived, letting the opponent chase past, and the opponent found something wrong.

It was too late, and he had already obtained the most suitable position at the six o'clock direction of the opponent's tail!

"Four torpedoes, thirty seconds apart, fire!" Thors ordered.

In the torpedo compartment at the head, the launch tubes were opened one by one, and the four torpedoes left the launch tubes at an interval of thirty seconds and rushed towards the opponent's tail.

Only by killing the opponent can he get a brief respite!

Thors has enough confidence that he can at least injure the opponent and force the opponent to float up! These four torpedoes are the latest torpedoes "developed" by Pakistan! The main technology comes from the disintegrated Soviet Union! (To be continued ~^~)
