1350: Shockwave baptism

The water is gentle.

Water is the fountain of life.

But beneath the seemingly weak exterior of water lies a strength that is tougher than steel.

The humpback whale hit a 100-meter-high wave, and at the same time, it kept trembling under this powerful impact.

The bow and bottom of the ship withstood most of the impact, so powerful that it easily tore through all the coatings on the bow exterior and the layer of sound-absorbing steel, which was not weak in itself, revealing the innermost layer of high-density alloy armor.

The kinetic energy was transmitted throughout the hull, and the four containers of industrial raw materials in the huge sealed cargo compartment cracked one after another under this shock.

At this moment, the inside of the hull shook wildly, and the control system in the cockpit frantically alarmed.

Fortunately, it was the humpback whale's core power system, and it was fine.

The Humpback Whale itself is an ultra-high-speed giant ship that skims the sea, and when it sails, it is not half-sunk on the surface of the sea like ordinary giant ships, but clings to the sea, and most of the bottom of the ship is suspended at high speed.

When encountering large waves on the sea, there is no need to rely on the bulbous bow and V-shaped bottom to break through the huge waves like ordinary giant ships.

The humpback whale either skimmed over the top of the big wave or crashed headlong into the big wave.

Therefore, at the beginning of the design, its impact resistance is fully considered.

Its hull length is also much shorter than that of ordinary giant ships, which allows it to take off without being affected by gravity, like ordinary giant ships, because the hull is too long and under its own gravity, it breaks in two.

The humpback whale's speed plummeted, setting off a 100-meter-high wave.

And then at this moment, the incoming missiles also arrived, and they crashed into the huge waves with the momentum of thunder.

The seemingly weak waves have turned into an indestructible giant "mountain" at this moment.

The first Harpoon anti-ship missile, which accelerated to Mach 1 at its end, immediately hit a mountain as if it were crashing into a huge wave as soon as it made contact with a huge wave.

Its front-of-the-line search radome cracked instantly, followed by infrared and optical and digital matching systems, which turned into weak tofu in the face of the waves, quickly shattering into snowflake wreckage.

This was followed by the most robust semi-armor-piercing warhead of the anti-ship missile.

Compared to the electronic locking system in front, the semi-armor-piercing warhead is undoubtedly much stronger. The moment it collided with the waves, it pierced through the waves.

But the strong resistance brought by the huge wave quickly stripped away all the parts of this anti-ship missile, except for the semi-armor-piercing warhead. The remaining semi-armor-piercing warhead, which was several meters long, could no longer withstand the strong water pressure after traveling less than five meters in the huge waves, and exploded completely on the ground.

This explosion is comparable to the moment the humpback whale enters the water.

The hundreds of meters high waves were blasted into two sections, and countless seawater and shock waves spread out in all directions.

The shock wave pierced through the waves and hit the bow of the humpback whale.

At this moment, the high-density alloy steel on the bow of the ship, which was originally quite regular, was forced to make a dent dozens of meters wide and nearly one meter deep at the deepest point.

That is to say, the bow armor has collapsed more than a meter inside, and even a long crack has appeared at a welded joint in the armor.

In less than 0.01 seconds, another anti-ship missile was also detonated.

This anti-ship missile is located on the left side of the humpback whale, and the shock wave after its explosion collides with the shock wave generated by the first one instantly, bringing a more alarming sound, but the damage caused to the humpback whale is much limited when the two shock waves cancel each other out.

There were a total of eight anti-ship missiles, and these two were the only lucky ones to overlap the Humpback Whale's course.

The rest of them can't even touch the edge of the waves. They lie straight against the sea level, fly a few nautical miles away by inertia, and then plunge headlong into the sea.

Those anti-aircraft missiles without a semi-armor-piercing warhead will end much more direly.

The moment they hit the waves, they shattered like scattered flowers, and then completely turned into smoke with a bang, without even a shock wave.

The charge of an anti-aircraft missile is usually very small, because it does not rely on the shock wave to kill the target, but relies on the continuous rod attached to the outer layer of the charge, or the discrete rod warhead, to destroy the target by relying on shrapnel.

Continuous or discrete rods, which can be propelled by a shock wave into a circle of elongated shrapnel flying at ultra-high speeds, can easily cut a fighter several tens of meters away into two pieces.

But in the face of a huge wave that is more than ten meters thick and strong when it is strong, it cannot penetrate even one meter.

In addition to anti-aircraft missiles, there were several Tomahawk cruise missiles, which were smashed down from a height.

The humpback whale was smashed into the sea, and the huge waves set off were not vertical, but like half an umbrella, covering half of the hull of the humpback whale.

Of these cruise missiles, only one was located directly above the Humpback Whale.

This cruise missile, too, exploded without penetrating the huge wave.

However, compared with the anti-ship missile, which weighs more than a ton and has a charge of nearly 500 kilograms, it bursts at the top of the humpback whale, which is not very defensive, and the destructive power it brings far exceeds that of the anti-ship missile.

Propelled by the shock wave, those waves turned into ultra-high-velocity jets that could cut through steel.

They completely tore open the closed deck of one of the Humpback Whale's cabins and washed the raw materials into the sky.

When the sound of the explosions caused by these missiles gradually disappeared, the humpback whale, which had resisted the impact of two anti-ship missiles and the shock wave of a cruise missile, also passed through the scattered waves and reappeared on the sea.

Behind the Humpback Whale, more than a hundred missiles of various types, all of which had been destroyed by electronic guidance equipment, fell into the sea like dumplings.

Some of them completely disintegrated when they touched the surface of the sea, and some of them made dozens of drifts on the surface of the sea because of the angle. Some of them burrow into the sea the moment they enter the water, and then like a depth charge, they lift a ball of water more than 10 meters high from the sea level.

They are no longer able to affect the Humpback Whale.

At this moment, the humpback whale, which has been baptized by the shock wave, is like a "survivor" who has just come out of a tragic naval battle.

The layer of sound-absorbing steel that can absorb electromagnetic waves on its exterior has fallen off in a large area, and the bow of the ship has two huge collapses, one deep and one shallow, and the hull has been smashed out of a hole the size of half a basketball court.

The crater is located directly above Cargo Compartment 3, where most of the raw materials are now missing, leaving the rest immersed in seawater several meters deep.

If it weren't for the metal experts who turned off the high-pressure air jet outlet at the bottom of the bow at the last minute, the humpback whale smashed into the sea and splashed hundreds of meters high.

At that moment, the Humpback Whale will be completely torn apart by two anti-ship missiles, and a cruise missile will fall from the sky and penetrate half of the hull.

At that time, the humpback whale will become a pile of scrap metal, even if it does not sink.

……

Dozens of nautical miles away.

The missile destroyer and frigate, which had fired all the missiles at this point, were lying dormant like two sharks.

Although, at the last moment, they lost all contact with these missiles.

But they can get the information they want from the sonar buoys that dot the surrounding sea.

These sonar buoys are 15 nautical miles in diameter, and after a series of explosions and strong electromagnetic baptisms, most of the buoys still survive.

Buoys fifteen nautical miles away from the target vessel can also transmit the voiceprint signal unaffected.
