Red Alert Somalia

Chapter 380 Discovery of a Somali submarine

"Old Lin, the Americans seem to have disappeared! It seems we are lost!"

Near the southwest of the British Indian Ocean Territory, a huge submarine slowly emerged from the bottom of the water. The exit above the submarine was opened, and two officers looking like officers jumped out from inside, and then stood on the ship’s side with spectacles watching Around, one of them said.

This typhoon-class attack nuclear submarine with hull number 201 is officially one of the four ships in the Somali twin aircraft carrier formation. The four nuclear submarines have hull numbers 201 to 204 and belong to the same class of ships.Because of the unity of the base, all the equipment of this type of ship has exactly the same data. Putting them together, apart from the ship number, they cannot be distinguished at all.

The United States has the world's most complete seabed surveying and mapping. This map is the highest secret of the U.S. Navy and a necessary navigation map for every U.S. nuclear submarine to sail.Because inside the submarine, it is basically impossible to see the bottom of the sea, all navigation needs to be very strictly in accordance with the map.

The four nuclear-powered attack submarines owned by the Red Police Corps all used maps of the seabed that were contributed by the Carter.The great value of capturing American nuclear submarines has already been demonstrated. Without this map, the four submarines of the Red Police Corps would not be able to dive freely in the deep sea.

When Li Lan sent four submarines to sea for training, it was to survey the seabed environment. Now, this step can be omitted.This map of the United States can save Li Lan ten years of effort.Because the United States has surveyed most of the world's seas and formed a very detailed map of the seabed.

At this time, one of the two people on the submarine was the submarine’s captain, Colonel Lin Kexing, and the other was the chief of staff colonel Chen Zhihong.The two of them have been following when they entered the middle of the Indian Ocean from the coalition fleet, but after all, the anti-submarine capability of the aircraft carrier formation is quite large, in order to avoid being discovered by the Americans.They can only follow from a distance, using passive sonar to find each other's tracks.

What makes Lin Kexing and others strange is that the Americans did not go to the east of the Indian Ocean for the first time, but when they were about to arrive, they turned and headed south.Continuing to head straight towards the southern part of the Indian Ocean, Lin Kexing began to think he was following the wrong fleet.I could only risk catching up to identify, but Lin Kexing was relieved as a result, and the Americans did turn.

Lin Kexing: A three-level Chinese soldier unit, military position: Captain of Colonel.

Ability: Senior commander ability...

Chen Zhihong: Three-level Chinese soldier unit, military position: Colonel Chief of Staff.

Ability: Senior commander ability...... (both are book friends real-name guest appearances)

"No way. It seems we can only estimate the direction to find those people!" Lin Kexing did not show helplessness on his face.They lost at least three times along the way, but they managed to get them back each time.Just as they were talking, more soldiers walked out of the submarine, then jumped directly into the sea on both sides, and began to play in the sea happily.

Although the living conditions inside the nuclear submarine are also OK, there are swimming pools and sunbathing.There are also sports rooms and a lot of activity spaces, which only nuclear-powered submarines can be so luxurious.But with so many days underwater, every submarine soldier still felt uncomfortable.

"This..." Chen Zhihong just wanted to speak when he saw the soldiers jumping into the sea.But was stopped by Lin Kexing, Lin Kexing gently shook his head and said, "Let them move. We don't know when we can get up when we dive. And the battle is very likely to start soon! Let's enjoy it. A short time of peace!"

Chen Zhihong listened to Lin Kexing's words, although he felt a little wrong, but he could only nod his head.After all, they had searched the surroundings when they floated up, and they were absolutely safe.Lin Kexing turned his head and said to the signal soldier standing behind him: "Send a report to the base, saying that the coalition fleet has begun to move south, and its whereabouts are unknown. We are under surveillance." The signal soldier just nodded and was about to return to the submarine. , A soldier emerged from the mouth of the submarine and shouted loudly: "Captain, there are five planes flying towards us!"

Lin Kexing was only slightly taken aback when he heard this.Such things can be said to be very common.Lin Kexing could only helplessly shook his head and shouted at the soldiers swimming in the sea: "Come back, we are going to dive!" The soldiers returned to the submarine at the fastest speed, and then entered the submarine. .Lin Kexing also returned to his commanding position at this time, standing next to the periscope and said: "Dive for sixty meters! Release the sensor! Turn on the periscope!"

The periscope mentioned by Lin Kexing is not a periscope in the traditional sense.It is a virtual periscope, based on the principle that the surface of the ocean is actually a primitive lens, which absorbs light from the water surface and refracts them underwater.The virtual periscope captures these refracted rays and restores them with high-speed signal processing software to "patch together" an image of the sea surface.The virtual periscope is installed on the bow of the boat and looks like a protruding eye. It is actually a sensitive camera that captures the light refracted by the sea.However, the image seen by the virtual periscope is not clear enough to distinguish the type of ship on the sea, but it can at least warn the submarine of suspicious targets on the sea.At a depth of 60 meters from the sea, it can spot a target 1600 meters away and give early warning.

As for the sensor, it is actually a miniature camera tethered to a buoy.If you don't look closely, it is like a piece of trash that goes with the flow.It can take a photo at a position 3 inches above the sea surface, and then transmit the image back to the submarine to restore it using signal processing software.It enables the submarine to see the 360-degree view of the sea.After completing the mission, the submarine cut the rope and slipped away and discarded it.These two new periscopes contribute to the stealth and safety of the submarine.But they also have limitations.The imaging capability of the virtual periscope is weak, and the target type cannot be accurately determined yet.In addition, both systems rely too much on signal processing software, and the observation distance is not as far as traditional periscopes.

Lin Kexing was only so careful because in this area, there were very few five aircraft formations, what missions should they be performing.In order to avoid unnecessary troubles, and to maintain their own safety, it is safer to adopt this method.What made him more happy was that no enemy ships were found around him.

Lin Kexing's guess was not wrong at all. The five planes were indeed performing their usual missions.And this task is not about others, but about himself.Their task is to search for the submarine where Lin Kexing is located and sink it.

The people on the 201 submarine did not know that the reason the coalition fleet changed its course was because they found such a small tail behind them, keeping them awake at night.

So Gotney, the commander of the coalition fleet, decided to suddenly change his course and then speed up.

Are there submarines in Somalia?This is a very big controversy in the coalition forces. If this controversy did not have a good result before the aircraft carrier came out, it would not be necessary to say more now.Somalia definitely has submarines. A country that can have 80,000 tons of aircraft carriers is absolutely capable of building submarines. Even if it is not world-class, it is not comparable to second-rate submarines.

This is the simplest explanation of a country's industrial strength, without any exceptions.Not to mention anything else, the steam catapult on the Somali aircraft carrier, to put it bluntly, is that Russia now does not have such industrial precision to build.

Although Gotney is very fame and fortune, he is also a practical and powerful general. He has a strong leadership ability for naval battles.He knew very well that he knew that this little tail would think that he was following the wrong team because he changed its course, because it could only track itself through radar and sonar.At this time, he will definitely find a way to confirm, if he wants to confirm, he must be close to himself.

However, the last operation failed. Gothney knew that the little tail came up to confirm himself, but he did not find a trace of it.Just when Gotney thought that he had failed in his judgment, or that he did not have this little tail at all, it appeared again, and the place it appeared was the place where he passed ten hours ago. It seems that it is relying on the seabed The complicated and hidden places have avoided his sight, which made Gothic even more determined to kill the hidden hazards.

Then accelerate again, then decelerate, change course, and after two confirmations, the position of the submarine is finally determined.This time, after getting rid of the tail, Gotney ordered the anti-submarine squadron to go to this area to search for and fix the submarine.

Lin Kexing didn't know that he had been completely exposed to the sight of the US military, and he could not be blamed. The point was that the US military did not respond to his actions every time. If they found out, they would definitely respond, but not.No matter how crazy the fleet commander is, he dare not ignore the existence of a nuclear submarine, and it is the enemy, so Gotney's reaction is an unusual reaction, and it is not too much to confuse Lin Kexing.It can only be regarded that Lin Kexing was a little too careless and did not discover Gothic's conspiracy.

Through the image sent back by the sensor, Lin Kexing clearly saw the five planes hovering above him, as if they were looking for something, Lin Kexing began to have a bad feeling.Sure enough, after a large aircraft hovered slowly in the air, it began to lower its altitude. Lin Kexing had already clearly seen at this time that this aircraft was the U.S. V-22 Osprey multi-purpose aircraft. If you guess wrong, this aircraft should be a US Navy sv-22, and its performance is-anti-submarine.
