——————

Although Medellin is very young, he has been the captain of the Immaculate for more than six years.From the first deployment of Wuxia to the Kenos anchorage in Yokohama, Japan, he often entered the China Exclusive Economic Zone.He has also entered the China Exclusive Economic Zone many times to conduct sea area exploration and water ripple information collection.

Under his leadership, he has repeatedly conducted illegal marine surveys in the South China Sea, 120 kilometers away from China’s Hainan Island, without permission, but each time he was warned by the Chinese law enforcement ship.Other sound measuring ships have also been reported to appear in the exclusive economic zone of China.

An intelligence ship like Wuxian can use passive sonar to directly threaten submarines operating in nearby waters.The towed low-frequency sonar array used by this type of sound measuring ship can detect submarine activities within a range of hundreds of kilometers, analyze its activity patterns and routes, collect its sound signal characteristics (tone patterns), and build a database for future anti-submarine.Once the sound signal of a certain submarine is detected during wartime, which type or even which submarine can be identified.It also lays the foundation for the future entry of US submarines into enemy coasts and activities along the coast.In order to remain concealed, submarines usually do not use active sonar when underwater. To avoid collisions with seamounts, they must navigate according to the nautical chart, and the nautical chart needs to be surveyed and mapped by the acoustic survey ship, which is equivalent to familiarizing the US military submarine with potential battlefield surroundings.Especially in shallow waters, if American submarines want to operate in such waters, they will increasingly need charts drawn by ocean survey ships.

Many oceanographic survey ships in the United States not only have high-performance sonars, they are also equipped with electronic signal collection devices. If they drive into the exclusive economic zone of a certain country, they can fully collect the electronic signal characteristics of aircraft and ships that are active offshore.

Of course, some unpleasant things happened during this period. Two years ago, when the No Time probe was detecting a Chinese submarine in the Yellow Sea, the detection sonar was hit by a Chinese fishing boat.And things like this often happen around Medellin.He is very disgusted with those Chinese fishing boats and the Chinese people on it.

As soon as he thought of the opposing forces being controlled by the Chinese, he always had uncomfortable feelings in his heart.

"Colonel, the Fleet Headquarters called back. In half an hour, the destroyer Paul Jones of the Navy formation carrying out the Gulf of Aden escort mission will arrive in the sea. The Roosevelt Aircraft Carrier Strike Group will also provide them with necessary air support. At the same time, When calling from the headquarters, do not enter the territorial waters of Somalia alone as a last resort, so as not to be at a disadvantage."

After hearing the command of the fleet command, Medellin had some thoughts in his mind.However, he hadn't considered his thoughts carefully, and the trouble began to come.

A hurried figure came to him and reported: "Captain, he found five aircraft, approaching us at a speed of nearly a thousand per hour. These aircraft are coming to Somalia. It should be the air force of the other party."

Medellin didn't say anything, and strode directly towards the monitoring room.The atmosphere on board suddenly became tense.Regardless of the various electronic devices on the Immaculate, they are all very advanced, but they do not have any means of self-defense.It is simply impossible to withstand attacks from other countries’ aircraft or warships.At sea, if No Time can get rid of its opponent at high speed, but when it encounters an opponent in the air, it can only be killed by someone.

"Prepare to turn on all the surveillance equipment, wait for the opponent's aircraft to approach, take pictures and collect electromagnetic signals, especially radar signals. Once the opponent's fire control radar is turned on, it must be recorded immediately. From now on, record the opponent's radar reflection signal. Prepare to dock with the satellite database and transmit these radar reflection data to the satellite.” For Medellin, the trouble also contains opportunities. If the data of the other party's aircraft can be collected, then this trip will not be a waste of time. .

The database of the US Navy, Air Force, and Army has long established a dedicated database for the Somali Freedom Alliance, but so far, it has not collected much valuable things.If these data are in peacetime, it may not have much effect, but if it is in wartime, the results will not be much different.These data will be the best basis for comparison and discrimination.According to the strength of the radar reflected signal, if the same radar signal is detected during the war, the identity of the opponent can be determined immediately.

Under Medellin's orders, the officers and men on the ship quickly returned to their posts and turned on the inspection equipment.Watching the instruments in front of him with breath holding, especially the radar soldier, even a hint of cold sweat on his forehead.At this time, no one is not nervous.If the other party is a big country, then they will not look like this, but the other party is a "stunned green", maybe missiles will come over at any time, this is not impossible.

"Eighty kilometers...30 kilometers, the opponent's speed has reached 700 kilometers per hour..." The radar soldiers kept shouting out the data detected by the radar, "Fifteen kilometers..., the opponent is separated, and four planes are on us. Fifteen kilometers away on the left, hovering at an altitude of 3,000 meters, another one is approaching us."

Medellin hurried to the deck and picked up the telescope.

In the sky on the left side of the ship, four fighters could be seen flying back and forth. At the weapon mounting points under the wings, he could clearly see the various weapons hanging on them.Medellin kept comparing the appearance and model of these weapons, especially the airborne weapons of China and Russia. The results were completely different.

Moreover, the appearance of these fighters is not like any fighter in the world. If they have to be similar, Medellin's most direct idea is the integration of Russia's Su-47 and today's Su-35.However, he is absolutely certain that these aircraft are definitely fourth-generation heavy-duty aircraft, and they are definitely Somali fighters.

"Damn it, who developed these aircraft." As a qualified captain of an intelligence gathering ship, Medellin naturally has a pair of sharp eyes and a very strong judgment ability.In his opinion, any advanced weapon equipment can be understood at least half by looking at its appearance.Beauty is a very good criterion for judging the quality of a weapon.Especially the new-age weaponry that emphasizes streamliness and stealth. The neater and beautiful the weaponry, the better the performance.

In the telescope, all the details of the four fighters in the distance entered Medellin’s eyes. Seeing these fighters flying in the air, reversed U-turns and four-level formation flying, this gave him a lot of shock. .Two missiles of the same size as normal anti-ship missiles were hung under the wings, and four missiles that looked like air-to-air missiles were also hung.Such a weaponry is definitely a fighter developed with superiority in the air.

If it weren't for seeing the flight and actual appearance of these aircrafts, the number and situation of the weapons already on them, Medellin would never believe that there is such an advanced aircraft in Somalia.Throughout Africa, several fourth-generation fighters can be found.Not to mention the development of a brand-new fourth-generation fighter, even if it is given to Africa for another 30 years, it is absolutely impossible.But the fact is right now, a power that is not yet a sovereign state actually has a brand new fourth-generation heavy air superiority fighter.This kind of thing that can only appear in fantasy novels actually appeared before my eyes.Medellin found himself unable to calm down.

Just when he wanted to adjust the magnification of the telescope so that he could see more clearly, one of the planes had already flown to the left of Immaculate, and he arrogantly made a low-altitude flight over the side of the ship's side.

Seeing the huge fuselage and the fighter plane flying by before his eyes, Medellin felt even more depressed.He could clearly see that the plane was not equipped with any weapons, and the belly was empty except for a sub-fuel tank.

In the face of such provocative behavior, Medellin would not dare to use it even if it had the means. The outbreak of war is another consideration, and it is also a questionable question.The four fighters in the distance were obviously used as bodyguards for this fighter.If the ship under him was a combat ship, and if he dared to do something, such as illuminating the fire control radar, then four other fighters would be attacked instantly.At this distance, even if the Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruiser is in hand, it cannot stop a round of anti-ship missile attack by the other four fighters.

Of course, Medellin also saw the opponent's attitude. This is the opponent's means of protest. Sending a fighter plane without a weapon is enough to show that the opponent does not intend to attack.Just a warning, don't mess around.

Sure enough, the international public channel on the ship received a propaganda message from the other side: "The U.S. Intelligence Ship Immaculate, this is the Somali Free Alliance Air Force. You have illegally approached our waters and entered our exclusive economic zone. This is For very serious provocative acts, in order not to harm the real interests of both parties, please leave immediately, otherwise we will implement various methods that do not rule out attacks to deal with your illegal acts."

...

"Did the other party turn on the radar or electronic equipment?" Medellin did not respond immediately after hearing the warning three times in a row, but returned to the cabin and asked the crew.

No one answered, but they all shook their heads at the same time, indicating that they had nothing.

"To generate electricity to them, we are sailing normally in the Gulf of Aden. This is an international waterway, and there is no illegal activity. As for the so-called exclusive economic zone, it has not been recognized by anyone and is not counted. The US Navy has the right to be in any public The right to sail normally in the sea." How could Medellin leave at this time, let alone the robot must find it, and it is impossible for him to leave because of a word from the opponent.Otherwise, where is the face of the US Navy?
