    Li Chun, the captain of the 333rd boat, won respect for the navy of the Republic. In subsequent exercises in which the Chinese navy participated, the navies of other countries had to stay on guard for fear of another embarrassing ending by the Chinese.

    In addition to anti-submarine warfare, maritime transportation and landing operations are just soy sauce due to the composition of the Chinese fleet. Another major event is the confrontation of actual troops at sea, which is the previously mentioned anti-ship warfare project.  In this phase, all three of China's main battleships, plus a destroyer and frigate from Japan and Australia, formed a five-ship formation.  Their opponent will be a six-ship formation composed of Britain, Canada and the United States. In order to prevent Li Chun from making a fool of themselves again, the Americans used a Los Angeles-class nuclear submarine as a countermeasure.

    The two formations will distance themselves in the Pacific, and each will use their own means to discover and destroy the other. In fact, it sounds a bit like the naval fleet showdown in the World War I era, because the two US aircraft carriers, the Carl Vinson and  None of the Rangers participated in this duel.  Just think about it and you will know that if the aircraft carrier is added, the advantage over other ships will be overwhelming.

    The U.S. military took great pains to conduct this actual military exercise. Considering that the Chinese have long-range anti-ship missiles and AIP submarines, the U.S. military had to use the Ticonderoga class, its main battleship that was originally only used to participate in air defense subjects.  Vincennes, the third cruiser ship.

    The first five Ticonderoga-class ships all use Mk26 dual-arm missile launchers. Although the bomb load is still more than that of the 052A destroyer with a full load of 6,800 tons, the rate of fire is not fast.  However, there is one thing that the 052A cannot match against the Ticonderoga class, and that is the array antenna attached to the tall superstructure of the Ticonderoga.

    As the first-generation Aegis, although there are still many unsatisfactory aspects, compared with the 052A that relies on four fire control radars to guide targets, the advantages are still very obvious.  The U.S. Navy also hopes that its main force, the Ticonderoga-class cruiser, can teach its Chinese counterparts a lesson and let them know who is the dominant force in the Pacific.

    As the core battleship of the Blue Team (the American exercise is the opposite of China's, the imaginary enemy is the Red Team, and China's imaginary enemy is the Blue Team), the captain of the Vincennes, George Gee, is full of confidence. Before setting sail, he conducted a thorough inspection of the entire ship.  The officers and soldiers shouted: "Let the Chinese feel our enthusiasm as masters!"

    Strategically, he despises the enemy, but tactically, he attaches great importance to the enemy. Although George Ji has not read Mao¡¯s election, he is deeply familiar with the five flavors.  From the very beginning, he regarded the red fleet as a comparable opponent to himself, without any carelessness like Pedersen before.  Moreover, in the last exercise, the Chinese submarine captain Li Chun, who was rumored to be almost a monster, was regarded by him as the biggest threat.

    Chinese submarines are elusive and very quiet, but the young captain has outstanding tactical acumen and good patience. Although the long-range anti-ship missiles of Chinese destroyers also give him a headache, in his opinion, the threat of Chinese submarines  is the biggest.

    Therefore, in this actual combat, although anti-ship is the main subject, the blue fleet will not relax its emphasis on anti-submarine at all, and they have an advantage this time, that is, a Los Angeles-class attack nuclear submarine has entered their  Formation, the two sides are basically equal in terms of submarine power, or in terms of speed, firepower, etc., the nuclear submarine has an advantage, while the 039A with breathless propulsion and bionic shark skin silencer tiles is quieter than the Los Angeles class.

    Relying on the terrifyingly powerful radar on the Vincennes, the detection capability of the blue fleet is much stronger than that of the red fleet.  However, the red team never gave up. As the commander of the red team's fleet, the captain of the Shenzhen, Lu Junfu, was also racking his brains and thinking of various means to fight against the blue team's fleet.

    The Hatsuyuki in the Sea of ??Japan and the Darwin of the Royal Australian Navy, plus the 054A Jiaxing, are mainly conducting regional anti-submarine work for the core ship Shenzhen. Lu Junfu and George Ji had similar concerns from the beginning, that is, the other party's submarines  , and whether it is a British warship or an American warship, the AGM-84 Harpoon's range of more than 100 kilometers brings Lu Junfu a sense of urgency that is definitely not as strong as that of a nuclear submarine.

    "No matter how powerful and versatile the Aegis cruiser is, it is absolutely related to the strategy pursued by the U.S. Navy. The U.S. anti-ship force focuses on carrier aviation and relatively underestimates ship-to-ship missiles. This is something we can take advantage of."  Lu Junfu smiled.

    Although the blue fleet on the other side is well prepared, it is also relaxed. Several destroyers and frigates are covered by nuclear submarines. Although they are spread out relatively widely, with some distances even exceeding ten kilometers, they still have no chance of discovering the enemy first.  And carry out the attack with full confidence.  Because the blue fleet is equipped with two Sea King early warning helicopters, these were brought by the British.  After the Falklands War, the British suffered the loss of not having an early warning fleet, so they modified the Sea King AEW-Mk2, these helicopters are definitely inferior to fixed-wing early warning aircraft like the E-2, but in a formation without an aircraft carrier, they are still better than nothing.

    After just an hour of sailing at sea, the early warning helicopter that George Ji had high hopes for was destroyed.

    "Mayday, Mayday, we are going to be shot down! It's a fighter jet. The enemy has fighter jets!" I don't know if the helicopter pilot was too involved in the drama. This was obviously an exercise, but he seemed to be actually on the battlefield.  , may be shot down by the enemy at any time.  When a helicopter is flying smoothly on the sea and suddenly encounters a fighter jet, it must be full of fear. In a tense and intense atmosphere, it is normal to put yourself into actual combat.

    Helicopters do not necessarily suffer when facing fighter jets, because in many cases they can block the terrain and block the range of attack from fighter jets. Fighters are too fast and may not be able to hit the helicopter even if they come back after several circles.  But now at sea, a target as big as the Sea King was "fired with a cluster of 23mm aircraft cannon shells" by a fighter jet that appeared out of nowhere, and was immediately judged to have been shot down.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT OFF OFF!

    This puzzling question made Lu Junfu proud for a long time, because from the beginning he did not follow common sense. When setting the strength of the troops, he added a fighter jet, the J-8V with vertical takeoff and landing.  Skua.  I don¡¯t know what the original considerations were, but the spacious helicopter decks of several 052A ships such as the Shenzhen were replaced with anti-blowout materials. In this way, the carrier-based vertical take-off and landing fighter Skua, which can fold its wings, can be here.  Take off and landing.

    Taking off and landing on a small deck that is just a few meters larger than a fighter jet is absolutely thrilling, but it is also absolutely unexpected.  The huge twin helicopter hangar of 052A has been modified to accommodate a J-8V Skua. In today's exercise, Lu Junfu did not carry a Z-20 anti-submarine helicopter, but pulled up a J-8V.

    Although vertical takeoff and landing will significantly reduce the combat radius of this fighter to 200 kilometers, it is still much more powerful than the Harrier fighter.  Relying on this fighter plane to conduct search and reconnaissance in a wider airspace, Lu Junfu was able to catch the enemy before the blue fleet.

    Georgiji no longer cared to wonder whether the Chinese were cheating. The air defense siren sounded on the Vincennes, and all the officers and soldiers on the ship became nervous.

    "Tell me, where is that plane?"

    The radar soldier replied with sweating profusely: "Sir, we haven't found it yet."

    Before George Gee could issue the next instruction, Captain Melville on the Canadian destroyer had visually spotted a flying target, but it was not a plane, but an anti-ship missile!

    While still some distance away from the Canadian destroyer USS Kootenay, the anti-ship missile exploded on its own, and the director also sent a "congratulatory message." The Kootenay was hit amidships, and the hull broke.  Slowly began to sink.

    "Cheating, cheating, this is cheating!" Lippett said repeatedly with a red face. This attack mode was too familiar to him. A few years ago, Argentina's A-4 Skyhawk and Super Etendard used this sea-skimming flight.  A mode that evades radar and then surprises the battleship with anti-ship missiles.

    God seems to favor Georgeji. His radar soldiers finally caught the Skua fighter. Georgeji immediately said: "Standard missile, lock it and shoot it down!"

    Before the Vincennes attacked, another American warship on the other side was "shot" again.  This Skua carried two anti-ship missiles, which were air-launched models of the YJ-83. One was given to the Canadians and the other to the Americans.  It always flies just over a hundred kilometers away from the blue fleet, never getting closer.  In fact, this is also the farthest distance that the skua's downward-looking radar can take into account.

    Standard missiles were fired continuously, but the hit rate from such a long distance made people confused.  The fighter jet seemed to have discovered that it was being scanned by the illumination radar, and immediately turned around and flew away.

    At this time, just when George was worried about whether the standard anti-aircraft missile could hit the enemy aircraft, his radar department shouted again: "Sir, more flying targets are approaching at high speed, and they are determined to be anti-ship missiles!"

    "How is it possible?!" George Ji was in confusion. He never expected that it would end like this.

    Lu Junfu celebrated in the war situation room with a smile as if he had succeeded in stealing a chicken. It didn't matter to him whether the fighter plane lived or died. It was all an exercise anyway. Even if it consumed one fighter plane and destroyed several warships in actual combat, it didn't matter to him.  Something worthwhile.  This J-8V actually acted as a relay guidance, sending the coordinates of the Vincennes to the Shenzhen behind it through a universal data link.  Although the Shenzhen cannot accurately grasp the position of the Vincennes at a distance of more than 300 kilometers, it will be no problem with these coordinates.?

    The missiles were fired continuously. Lu Junfu actually wanted to test the Aegis ship's ability to resist saturation attacks.  Of course it is impossible to actually hit her during the exercise, but the simulation of the results is calculated through parameters.  He fired 8 Eagle Strike-62s, half of which missed, but only these 4 hits were enough to kill the Vincennes.
