"Thank you for the compliment, Bihai No. 1." Zhou Hai smiled after hearing this.
As two Gaoxin No. 6 anti-submarine patrol aircraft entered the airspace of the live-fire exercise, the remaining combat units of the Wolf Hunting Operation arrived at the combat position one after another. The fishing net laid by the Supreme Combat Command Center of the Eastern Theater was taking shape, with the No. 101 J-15C' "Tiger Shark" is the core, and corresponding sonar buoys and various sonar equipment are arranged around the sea wolf.
This is a fishing net, a fishing net made of fishing lines from the five-dimensional combat system of sea, land, air, space and electricity.
There is only one purpose, to hunt wolves!
If you dare to come here, you have to pay the price.
"Bihai-1 and Bihai-2 are ready, and sonobuoys and bottom-sinking sonar devices at each node have been launched."
"Golden Gun No. 1 is ready and has sailed into the scheduled exercise sea area. It is in the second hub position and is ready to fight at any time."
"Blue Whale 1 and Blue Whale 2 are ready to enter the target sea area and are in the third hub position."
"Report, the Jinling attack nuclear submarine is about to arrive at the first hub position."
In the Eastern Theater Command's highest combat command center, as the wolf-hunting combat units, which were about half the size of an aircraft carrier battle group, reported their own situations, the entire fishing net was announced to be taking shape.
On the large screen, the terrain data of the external live-fire exercise area and the situation map of the enemy and ourselves are displayed. The Jinling 093G attack nuclear submarine is located to the north of the target. It is the closest and is the first hub position. The two 054A destroyers with the operation code name Blue Whale are located at the target. The west side, the next closest, occupies the third hub on the west side.
The No. 055 guided-missile destroyer, code-named Jin Gun, is located southeast of the target and is moving north, occupying a position due east.
The entire combat unit layout adopts the most classic and practical tactic of surrounding three and one.
Surrounded on three sides: east, west, north, and west. If this sea wolf wants to escape, it must go south, passing through the sonar buoy group and bottom-sinking sonar device group area set up by two J-11BH and two Gaoxin-6 anti-submarine patrol aircraft. Come and you will have the opportunity to obtain the other party’s real voiceprint data.
Of course, limited by the voiceprint correction system equipped by the other party, the probability of obtaining real voiceprint data is very small.
But this is not important. The real voiceprint data is one aspect, and rounding up the Sea Wolf is another aspect.
All combat units for the entire operation were in place. Commander Luo Ji stared at the big screen, nodded slightly, and immediately turned on the communicator: "Unit 101, I am a fisherman, reporting the situation."
"Report to the fisherman, the target posture is normal and there are no abnormal changes." A voice from Zhou Hai came from the dynamic encrypted communication channel.
"How long is the time left for the live-fire exercise?" Commander Luo Ji nodded, looked at the combat staff next to him, and asked.
The combat staff officer, holding the tactical tablet tightly with both hands, said with a serious face: "Report, there are 5 minutes left."
five minutes!
There are only five minutes left before the live-fire exercise is announced to the public.
The countdown was displayed on the big screen, and the numbers kept beating. Looking at the time disappearing every minute, all the technicians and officers in the command center held their breath and were highly concentrated.
In the dynamically encrypted communication channel, communication personnel from all combat units in the entire encirclement and suppression operation, including Zhou Hai, were all waiting.
three minutes.
Two minutes.
One minute.
Time returns to zero.
"Bihai No. 1, drop and explode a Yu-8 anti-submarine missile one nautical mile east of the target area." Commander Luo Ji, who was waiting quietly, glanced at the countdown that had completely returned to zero, nodded, and gave the order in a serious voice. Order.
The wolf hunting operation has officially begun!
As the order was issued, everyone in the command center became busy instantly, with full vigilance and adaptability. At the same time, the Bihai-1 anti-submarine patrol aircraft that received the order, based on the latest coordinates of the live-fire exercise sea area, the crew members carefully and Quickly load the airborne fire control system, set parameters, ignite and launch a Yu-8 anti-submarine missile.
This anti-submarine Yuba is a serious live ammunition. It is definitely not used for daily training. The power of one can destroy submarines of any tonnage.
Does it make sense to say that live-fire exercises do not use live ammunition?
It doesn't make sense.
If others knew about it, they would think that the family was poor and could not afford live ammunition.
"boom!"
The missile rocket engine ignited, and the projectile weighing hundreds of kilograms fell, and then, under the action of powerful propulsion, flew towards the target location more than ten kilometers ahead at high speed.
The Yu-8 anti-submarine missile has an effective range of 40 kilometers and can attack underwater targets at a depth of 500 meters. The missile uses Beidou + inertial guidance, and the torpedo warhead uses active sonar guidance, which can automatically search for targets.
As the entire anti-submarine missile left the body, the Bihai-1 anti-submarine patrol aircraft, which was patrolling at an altitude of 3,000 at mid-altitude, quickly left its original position and flew to the right airspace while focusing on the target area.
Forty meters under the sea, sea wolf.
"Captain, the passive sonar has no target. The situation is very strange. There is no sonar from any surface ship within a radius of 50 nautical miles." In the command module, a sailor staying at the sonar position reported.
Captain Oliver frowned slightly: "Still not?"
"Yes, except for the background fluctuation noise of the ocean, there is no voiceprint information of any surface ships. It feels like the world has disappeared." The sonar sailor said truthfully.
"Adjust to Level 2 power and expand the detection range to 100 nautical miles. Gentlemen, we are about to contact the opponent's base. Please be extremely careful." Captain Oliver pondered for a while, but did not feel dangerous. He thought briefly and issued the order.
"Yes, sir." The sonar sailor who received the captain's order immediately executed it and operated the bow passive sonar control system with both hands to increase the power to level two to expand the detection range.
When traveling at a speed of 20 knots, the noise generated by the Seawolf is about 89 decibels. It is completely integrated into this busy sea area with a background noise of up to 95 decibels. There is no need to worry about its own noise affecting the passive sonar at the bow.
This is the core reason why the sea wolf's body design is particularly wide and fat.
"Captain, there is voiceprint information... Damn it, what is this?!" The sailor finished adjusting the sonar and stared at the screen. A series of voiceprint detection data came out. This was the information of the surface ship. The closest surface ship was actually 90 nautical miles away, just as he was preparing to report, suddenly, the sonar system picked up the sound of a dull and heavy object hitting the water on the right.
sound!
Extremely dull, extremely heavy, the impact of entering a body of water at high speed!
What's this?
It's a torpedo!
The sonar sailor felt a bone-chilling coldness, and he couldn't help but shiver all over. Having undergone complete training, he was 100% sure that this was a TM torpedo.
A torpedo weighing about three hundred kilograms was just one nautical mile away on the right!
