It was actually an accident that four Type 0 submarines blocked the third ship of the fast-class attack nuclear submarine, the Gangqiang. Before the British army carried out the task of opening up the channel, the submarines who received the task from the naval combat department had already begun to attack in this area. Small traps similar to the one the British army fell into just now were laid in the sea area. But on the other hand, it is no fun for the British army to invade the border. If they are caught, whether they can escape depends on luck, so these submarines try to stay on the periphery of the British army.
I just didn¡¯t expect that the Jianqiang had yawed or was deliberately looking for traces of the Nanjie submarine on the periphery, and it happened to crash into the activity area of ??the 0 submarine. Although the Nanjie submarine is small in tonnage, its technical level is still commendable compared to the second-generation nuclear submarines of the 1970s such as the Kuai-class. For example, the various underwater listening equipment equipped on the entire ship, such as underwater navigation radar, hull sonar, active and passive attack sonar, towed array sonar, etc., are basically ten years or more ahead of the British army.
In addition, several ships remained relatively still and lurking when the Gangqiang broke in, but the Gangqiang entered their habitat like a beating of gongs and drums. Even if the Gangqiang thought it was careful, it could not help but be caught. Four 0 submarines captured intelligence such as location and electromagnetic spectrum.
In contrast, although the 0 submarine is an AIp submarine redesigned for export, because it is for Qi Yiming's own use, it adopts the highest standards. The AIp power of the fuel cell itself improves its silent stealth capability. Although the layer of silencing tiles laid is not as good as the bionic shark skin silencing tiles used in 09B094, it is still slightly better than the British, American and Soviet products of the same era. Compared with the so-called ocean black hole Kilo class, the 0 series submarines are truly silent killers hidden in the ocean floor.
"The target position has been confirmed, waiting for friendly ships to enter the attack position."
The four submarines were in different directions, like leopards staring at their prey, slowly lowering their heads and moving in the grass, and slowly moved themselves to a distance where they could launch an attack. Their speed is quite slow, because they are afraid that the sound caused by high-speed travel will be detected by the Jianqiang.
The reason why the attack is carried out in four different directions is that after calculation, the four submarines can form a fire network through their own attack lines, thus minimizing the escape route of the nuclear submarine.
"Follow my command, launch at the same time, 64B2l - launch"
Four 0 submarines simultaneously launched their own Yu-6 heavy torpedoes. Compared with the Tiger Fish line-guided heavy torpedoes used by the British army, the Yu-6 itself also has active and passive acoustic homing and wake homing guidance modes. It also has Longer range, capable of launching from 45 kilometers away.
The 0 submarine has 6 6-torpedo launch tubes, which can fire a sector of heavy torpedoes at the same time. In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, the four 0 submarines fired two or more torpedoes in a row. So many torpedoes formed a terrifying scene in an instant. The lightning strike net covered the strong ship alive. When the sailors of the strong ship heard the terrifying "whistle" of the torpedo, it was too late.
A total of six Yu-6 torpedoes hit the nearly 5,000-ton attack nuclear submarine. The terrible impact first tore the shell of the nuclear submarine apart, and then the water pressure rushed to contribute to the destruction of the unlucky nuclear submarine. A torpedo even directly penetrated the stern rudder of the Strong, and the turbulent Indian Ocean water poured in continuously along the gap.
When the fast-class nuclear submarine was built, it originally had multiple watertight compartments. After a certain compartment was flooded, it could be closed immediately to prevent more compartments from being eroded. But in this attack, too many torpedoes hit her, so that the multiple watertight cabins had no time to function and were filled up.
Like a ghostly hand from the deep ocean, it struggled to drag the more than 80-meter-long submarine into the deeper sea. The diving depth of any submarine is limited. The maximum water depth in this sea area is more than three thousand meters. When the Gangqiang was dragged below 80 meters, the increasing water pressure had suppressed it and completely deformed it. Like a spoiled can.
0 The sailors on the submarine did not cheer. On the one hand, they were all Red Alert soldiers and were born with less affection. On the other hand, they were all submariners and could understand the terrible feeling of being trapped in an iron can and waiting for death. . Instead of cheering for your own victory, it is better to observe silence for your colleagues at this moment. Because absolutely, none of the 16 crew members on the Strong will be able to escape unless there is an accident.
The second confrontation between the South British navies ended with a Leander-class frigate being towed away after being seriously damaged, and ultimately a fast-class attack nuclear submarine being sunk in the Egmont Islands west of Diego Garcia to prevent sinking. ending. Counting from the air battle in the Strait of Malacca, the South and Britain fought three times, and the British army basically did not take any advantage, and they were defeated repeatedly.
"Moreover, the Strong was the first submarine to be sunk after World War II, and it was also a nuclear submarine, which made the British army very sad. Although the water pressure of the deep sea has blocked the nuclear reactor of the Strong, it is not known whether other troubles will occur. The USS Thresher nuclear submarine used for submarine testing in the 1960s was also located 20 nautical miles east of Cape Cod.The Jinsong Trench sank at a depth of more than 2,000 meters. Although the United States made salvage efforts, there was still no harvest.
I don¡¯t know what Qi Yiming was thinking. Nanyang Society did not further exaggerate the victory, which in disguise reduced the burden on the British. But the so-called ugly daughter-in-law will eventually meet her parents-in-law. Sooner or later, the current failure will be revealed, and Britain will still be slapped in the face. The only way to save this situation is to defeat Nan Jie.
But the successive defeats have made some politicians and generals doubt whether to continue sending troops south.
Admiral John Feldhouse, who had achieved great success for Britain in the Falkland Islands War, said for the first time after the sinking of the Fortitude, "Stop this war that will do nothing but harm Britain." In this case. However, his words were criticized by conservative forces led by Margaret Thatcher.
Mrs. Thatcher even mocked the old general, saying: "Have you been satisfied with a victorious war, Your Excellency? Or can you safely enjoy the respect from future generations with this victory over the weak? Will you turn a blind eye to Britain's honor and disgrace from now on? The hesitation and cowardice we face now are the main culprits that hurt Britain. Only by advancing bravely and crushing the enemy can the world see clearly that the United Kingdom will never be forgotten. A majestic figure standing on top of the world¡±
The wife of the prime minister, who was determined and stubborn, had no idea that she was pushing her beloved country into the abyss, and a group of bureaucrats and incompetent soldiers who only knew how to flatter and flatter her began to cater to her.
"Under the leadership of the Prime Minister's wife, we will surely win a second glorious victory for the UK. Long live the United Kingdom"
Therefore, Britain has only one reflection on the war at this juncture - not enough troops have been sent, the offensive is not strong enough, and victory will definitely belong to Britain.
The Diego Garcia base is shared by the United Kingdom and the United States. The Americans who were in the same place clearly saw what the British had done and sent their first-hand information back to the Pentagon, including the faint sound of the Fortitude. There was no news of the return, including photos of the British frigate sunk on the beach. The shrewd Americans quickly deduced the real situation. Their ally Britain had fallen into a state of madness and was bent on winning a victory.
The continuous losses of the British army also made Americans uneasy. Reagan even urgently summoned his cabinet members to discuss the progress of the situation.
"The military strength of Nanjie is surprising." Reagan said.
Defense Secretary Weinberger shook his head: "In fact, it is not surprising at all, Mr. President. Our intelligence shows that the so-called Yugoslav Liberation Army is just guys who took off the Chinese PLA uniforms and put on a new set of clothes. You know China They are carrying out a massive disarmament of millions. Within a year, they have laid off at least 600,000 people. By 193, the size of their army will be reduced to 200,000. These veterans have good military skills and may cause social unrest. "Obviously China has found a good way out for them."
Secretary of State Shultz still has doubts: "But so many armaments are the most advanced things. China itself is so poor that its pants are about to fall off. Is it realistic to take them out and directly give them to South Korea?"
Reagan said: "Maybe you have to return it after using it. You can't tell. The relationship between South Korea and China is actually one-minded. Anyone with a discerning eye can see it. The key is that Britain has exposed its true nature of being a strong foreign power. , and our new allies are obviously not easy to mess with. If the UK cannot stop its crazy behavior, it is likely to cause them heavy losses. Even if it is not strong enough to fight China, the UK is still very qualified to bully other small countries. , It is quite unwise to waste one's own strength in vain. Is there any way to stop them? "
Bush Sr. had been angry with Mrs. Thatcher before, and this time it was time to retaliate. His Bush family itself has close ties with oil groups and military-industrial groups. He said: "We have a lot of military cooperation with the United Kingdom, and even their naval The nuclear weapons strike capability also depends on the Trident we provide, and there is also a lot of other technical support and cooperation. If we think of ways to threaten the UK in this regard, we may be able to achieve results."
Schultz frowned and said, "But this will greatly weaken the relationship between us and our allies."
Bush said: "This is inevitable. The British are not stupid and naturally know how to make trade-offs. But if we are afraid of hurting the relationship between our allies and sit idly by and let the British cripple us and reduce the power of our alliance, it will be more than worth the loss." , Of course, how we make moves depends on our skills, and we don¡¯t necessarily have to put too much pressure on us right from the start.¡±
Reagan was very optimistic about Bush's idea and nodded: "That's it. Let's discuss how to get the British to take action on this matter."
