Red Alert Somalia

Chapter 398 The Tragic Lincoln

ps: A new week, ask for a recommendation ticket!

——————

As one of the three super aircraft carriers of the coalition fleet in the Indian Ocean, USS Lincoln frequently takes off and landing with carrier-based aircraft every day, with extremely high intensity.

In addition to being ready to attack the Somali fleet, the Super Hornet on the ship must always be responsible for the defense of the entire fleet. Combine the air defense with an early warning aircraft to push down a range of 500 kilometers from the core of the fleet.

The carrier-based aircraft maintains a high degree of preparedness and alertness, which makes takeoffs and landings extremely frequent. On the entire flight deck, either fighters take off or land. Aviation fuel and ammunition in the aircraft carrier ammunition depot and oil depot are often pulled up for backup. , To quickly supplement the consumption of fighters.

Especially after the fact that the Somali aircraft carrier has carrier-based aircraft has been fully proved, the three aircraft carriers also became nervous.As a member of an aircraft carrier, no one knows the importance of air defense, especially at sea.

The battle came very suddenly, but it did not cause the coalition forces to be in a hurry. The staff on the US aircraft carrier were also in order.After many years of training, they know the importance of a stable mood.On the aircraft carrier, every link can't go wrong, let alone emotions affect work.

However, the following scene caused every staff member on the Lincoln to lose their souls.

A Super Hornet full of ammunition, after performing the alert task, with at least half of the fuel, it should have been a perfect landing, but a very sudden picture shocked everyone at first.

Two anti-ship missiles flew out from under the wing of this Super Hornet and swept over the flight deck of the aircraft carrier.Rushed directly to the command ship Lassalle, not far in front of the Lincoln, and followed.This Super Hornet changed its original landing flight trajectory. The fuselage was raised a bit to the right, and it was supposed to drop to a speed of about 300 kilometers, but it suddenly rose.

Fighters with more than 30 tons and more than ten tons of ammunition and fuel in them are all highly dangerous goods.In the exclamation of countless gods, the Super Hornet hit directly below the aircraft carrier Cambridge at a speed of more than 600 kilometers per hour.In just a moment, the violent explosion sound and burning flame spread rapidly on the deck.

The warplanes, ammunition, and fuel placed on the deck rolled under the Super Hornet that had turned into burning debris, and the disaster broke out completely.

In just three seconds, the deck was caught in a martyrdom and smoke fire. Many of the planes parked under Cambridge were filled with fuel and ammunition, just waiting for the order to take off.but.These planes had no chance to take off, and the deliberate impact of a fighter plane completely buried them in the fire.

Ten seconds later, the Lincoln had three decks the size of a football field, and nearly half of it had fallen into a sea of ​​flames, with the explosion of various ammunition.From time to time it played in the thick smoke that rolled up.

On the other side, in the face of a sudden attack of missiles, the command ship Lassalle, which had no defensive capabilities, had two US air-launched anti-ship missiles when the Lincoln was in distress.The hit was very accurate at the stern of the LaSalle, the through-deck at the stern.It was opened directly in the explosion, and the entire rear hull was blown up in an instant. Various wrecks and debris continued to splash on the surrounding sea, and the dense ripples were like dense rainstorms.

When Gotney was protected from the bridge by the guards, what he saw was the end of his life in the military, an extremely large stain of failure.

The countless warships around were also stunned by everything that suddenly erupted in the distance. All kinds of stunned gazes, and the call to God and his old man, became the special note of this catastrophic event.

On the three Perry-class frigates next to the Lincoln, the water cannons originally used to drive them out became the best fire fighting tools.

"... Hurry up and organize a ballistic missile defense!" Just after recovering from the stun of the explosion, Gotney looked at the Lincoln in flames, and shouted at the various staff behind him without grace.

When Gotney climbed off the lifeboat with the help of guards.

The missile group that fell like a meteor shower in the sky has penetrated the clouds.

In the fleet, various standard three missiles are also continuously launched from cruisers and destroyers, leucorrhea intersects in the sky, and various bullets are flooded toward the missile rain.

At this time, the time is too late.Faced with the attack of dozens of missiles, the anti-aircraft artillery on American warships, under the command of the aircraft carrier's Aegis command system, began to spread bullets in the air.However, sometimes these things are useless.The densely packed missiles directly ignored such interceptions and rushed directly to the Bush, another nuclear-powered aircraft carrier in the middle of the fleet. No matter how dense the interception, the ballistic trajectory of Bush was targeted. The barrage was not aimed directly at Bush. It covers an entire area of ​​the sea around the Bush.

Nowadays, it doesn’t matter whether the missile has an end-of-orbit change, or whether the strike is accurate to 30 meters or 300 meters. The Bush, which is more than 300 meters long, has absolutely no way to escape from this sea area, no matter how fast it is. Give him a three-fold increase, and reach 100 knots and he cannot escape before the missile falls.

At this time, the near-fire guns on all warships next to the USS Bush were hit, and they wanted to form a protective layer on the USS Bush.In addition, various inducer bombs and aluminum foil strips were also shot out to confuse the missiles that came to attack, cloud burst jamming bombs, and bomb clouds gathered over the aircraft carrier.

The electronic countermeasures department on the warship has also increased its horsepower, trying to use electronic fraud to deceive these attackers.It’s just that there are too many missiles. Although some missiles were successfully interfered by infrared-induced bombs and aluminum chaff, some were electronically interfered and deviated from the planned attack route, and some missiles were even successfully intercepted by near-fire guns. Some missiles have successfully broken through layers of defense circles.

"Boom!" A missile exploded on its own over the USS Bush. While the Americans were still wondering, they found countless small things falling from the sky, and then exploded continuously on the deck.Although these little things have little power to explode, they are fatal to the planes and staff on the deck in this place. The named staff fell in a pool of blood, and the exposed oil pipeline on the deck was also blown up. , Aviation kerosene slipped out of it, and then it was ignited by other open flames after the explosion. It immediately ignited a raging fire and involved a fighter plane in the fire, making a terrifying sound. The aircraft may explode again at any time.

"Quick, close the valve! Put all the weapons and ammunition into the lifting plate! Bring the fire extinguisher!" The American soldiers on the deck quickly recovered their calm after experiencing a period of chaos.Several American soldiers immediately pulled the fire hose of the dry powder fire extinguisher and began to pour the dry powder toward the burning place to suppress the flame.If it is normal, you can believe without hesitation that the Americans can handle such things, but today's attack is a saturation attack, so it can only be said that the Americans can only delay time by doing so.

Just as they were trying to extinguish the flames on the deck, another missile broke through the defensive circle and directly hit the tower.The huge explosion made everyone on the deck involuntarily look back. The tower that had originally stood at this time was broken, and there was a raging fire.Just when they were stunned, the plane behind them finally exploded again under the erosion of the fire. Several soldiers standing closer fell directly to the ground, and more sparks were spread on the others. local.

The nightmare did not end in this way. Two missiles successfully hit near the waterline of the USS Bush aircraft carrier, and sea water poured into the aircraft carrier through those holes.Just now because a missile hit the ship's tower, the command headquarters was already paralyzed. When the Americans reacted, sea water had poured into the four barriers, and the entire hull had begun to tilt.

When Gotney stood on the lifeboat and looked at the crumbling USS Bush, he felt like a knife twisted in his heart, regretted in his heart, and despised the enemy.However, it is too late to say anything. Two more missiles hit the port side of the USS Bush. They first penetrated the armor of the aircraft carrier and then exploded inside.If these two missiles just penetrated and did not explode, then the Americans would see an even more surprising scene, that is, the two missiles have a line written on them: "The dog said the Yankee!"

Such a blow not only destroyed the internal structure of the USS Bush, but also caused the rescue team, which was already in an orderly manner, to stop leaking everywhere, starting to slow down.The aircraft carrier also started to slow down due to too much water.

"General, we must leave as soon as possible. The Somali Air Force is approaching us! And the early warning aircraft has just sent back intelligence, and dozens of waves of Somali aircraft are found in the southeast direction, flying towards us!" Just climbed onto a Perry-class frigate. Gotney, before he allowed him to breathe, the captain came to him and whispered.

At this time, the aircraft dispatched by the Somali Indian Ocean Fleet had formed a perfect coordination with the missile attack. As long as the US fleet made a little mistake, heavier blows would follow.Gotney was taken aback for a moment, and then quickly awoke himself, knowing that it would be useless to regret it now. Once the other party sank the USS Bush, he would definitely target the other warships in the fleet.Now the losses must be minimized. Only in this way can I have the capital to deal with the Somali Indian Ocean Fleet. The Somalis are too cunning.
