Kim Puzhi led three warships to the East China Sea with great ambition, and two Russian-faced Jishu personnel, at the strong request and retention of the North Korean military's weapons and logistics equipment department, also joined the hunting operation with the ship, responsible for the use of new equipment.

The North Korean fleet cruised in the waters of the East China Sea near the Japanese for more than a day, but did not find an opportunity to use the new missiles. After sailing northeast for more than four hours, Kim Puzhi, who was in the lounge to familiarize himself with the operating specifications of the SS-N-26 ship-to-ship missile launch system, received a report from the fleet's operational staff officer.

"Report to the captain, 15 degrees southeast of the fleet, thirty nautical miles, a merchant ship with a displacement of 20,000 tons has been found, and request instructions. ”

Jin Puzhi's spirit was lifted and he immediately rushed to the combat command room to check the information displayed by the radar; because the ship's radar system was a product of the 70s in China, and although it had undergone several improvements and reinforcements, it was still far behind the Jishu level of Shijie's advanced radar, so Jin Puzhi could only estimate the tonnage and nature of the ship from the intensity of the radar reflected waves, and could not confirm that it was a merchant ship of that country.

Jin Puzhi has a certain understanding of the Jishu level of modern Shijie radar, especially phased array radar and its imaging radar, which he has envied for a long time. The reconnaissance satellite jishu is also Kim Puzhi's dream, and if his country had these jishu, he would not be in hesitation and distress now.

"Order, the fleet turned 10 degrees to the right and sailed at full speed, to get a close look at the ship. ”

Jin Puzhi had no choice but to do it, and only by close observation could he be sure that this was a merchant ship of that country.

The fleet turned and sailed for five minutes, and an operations staff officer who had been ordered to follow the two Russian instructors entered the operations command room and reported to Captain Kim Puzhi.

"Report to the captain, two Russian missile system instructors, that there is a Japanese merchant ship thirty nautical miles ahead of us. The merchant ship is a 2,500 TEU large container ship of Wakoku Tokyo Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. After loading goods from the country, he is on his way back to the country. ”

Jin Puzhi was shocked, how did these two Russian instructors discover this merchant ship that was more than 50 kilometers away, and how did they determine that this ship was a merchant ship of a Japanese company?

"Captain, please bring the two instructors to the war room. ”

"Yes. ”

The captain turned to leave, but was stopped by Kim Puzhi again.

"Wait, forget it, I'll go and ask, Chief of Staff Cui, let's go over together. ”

Mr. Kim had hardly any one-on-one contact with the two Russian experts. He has a string in his mind at any time, and he can't get too close to two foreigners, not because he has many eyes, but because of the country's social environment and the lessons of his predecessors, which taught him how to deal with the relationship with foreigners. He took the chief of the operational staff and the two operational staff officers together to the rest room of the two Russian instructors located on the second floor.

As soon as he entered the lounge between the two, Jin Puzhi couldn't help frowning, two Russian instructors were sitting on the beds in the small lounge, the two were relatively happily drinking Huaguo's Erguotou, and there were several bottles of canned food with open lids on the bedside table between the two beds.

They watched Kim Puzhi and others come in. He beckoned a few people to sit down and have a drink with them. The fleet has already entered a combat state, how can Kim Puzhi sit down and drink with these two drunkards, even during the usual rest time. Kim Puzhi couldn't do it either.

"Two gentlemen, I have come to ask you for advice, and I hope you will give you advice. ”

The two Russian instructors looked at each other and smiled, without waiting for Jin Puzhi to continue. One of the instructors said:

"Captain Kim, we know what you're here for, tell you the truth. We analyzed it from the morphology of the reflected waves of the fire control radar of the SS-N-26 missile, there is nothing that can teach you, you should not be angry, it's not that we don't teach, but this analysis is the accumulation of our years of experience. In addition, this requires the analyst to have a good understanding of the reflected wave patterns of the large ships on the Shijie, and then compare the two wave patterns before reaching a conclusion. ”

Another Russian expert continued:

"We memorize these waveforms in our heads, and we don't have electronic records, and we don't have paper files, so there's really no way to tell you. It's an instinct we've been in the business for years. In particular, we seem to have a special ability in analyzing and remembering various types of ships of some important countries. If you can collect the reflected wave patterns of these ships, you can quickly and easily draw conclusions by storing them in your computer. ”

Jin Puzhi was ashamed for a while, and his face tended to turn green, if his country's military had mastered the reflected wave patterns of most foreign ships, he would not have come to ask you for advice. But what the two said was reasonable, and he couldn't find a reason to blame the two for not wanting to pass on their experience, so he could only be angry with himself, although he let his country and the officers and men of the fleet not be angry?

Jin Puzhi's momentary gaffe naturally couldn't hide the eyes of the two Russians, and the two looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders quite innocently.

Kim Puzhi returned to normal in an instant, and he laughed hahachly.

"The two instructors are too careful, I didn't come here today to ask this question, but to ask the two instructors, are you sure of this conclusion? What is the possibility?"

A few hours ago, they had already known that a Japanese merchant ship was going to pass through this sea area, and a few minutes ago they received information from the explorers that the Japanese merchant ships were only more than 30 nautical miles away from the Northern Korean fleet, and they analyzed according to the radar level of the Northern Korean fleet, and the Northern Korean fleet should have discovered this Japanese merchant ship, so they told Jin Puzhi this information through the operational staff who followed them。

"Captain Jin, it is certain that this ship is a merchant ship of the Wa Kingdom, and the accuracy rate is 100%. Therefore do not have any worries, but do as your superiors command. There will be no mistakes. ”

"Xiexie, please continue, you may have to enter a state of combat readiness in a while, I hope you two can, try your best to help us. Farewell. ”

Two Russian experts stood up to see them off. After Jin Puzhi and his entourage returned to the operational command room. After a joint analysis and study by all the operational command and staff officers, the assertions of the Russian experts were 90% convinced. Kim Puzhi immediately reported the analysis and conclusions of the fleet to the General Staff of the North Korea. Request instructions from the General Staff.

Soon the order of the General Staff came down, ordering the fleet to destroy the Japanese merchant ship with Russian-made SS-N-26 ship-to-ship missiles, and demanding that the launch process be carried out by the North Korean soldiers, so that the fleet could test the fleet's use and mastery of the new missiles and evaluate the combat effectiveness of the new missiles.

"Sound the battle alarm. All combatants are in place. ”

A terrible siren sounded over the fleet, and the fighters on the three warships began to be nervously busy, and in less than a minute the combat posts were ready.

"The engine system is working and ready. ”

"The missile launch system is ready, the fire control radar is normal. ”

"The air defense system is ready, normal. ”

"The torpedo launch system is normal. ”

…

"Attention to the ships, transmit the target designation data, receive it, report the data. ”

"591 (West Lake class) report, SS-N-26 missile fire control radar received data completed, coordinates ***, ***. Launch angle 32. The whole process is automatically guided. ”

"823 (Rozin class) report, data received ,..."

"824 (Rozin class) report, data received ,..."

The two cyborg instructors also appeared in the missile launch command room, watching their students operate the instruments step by step, input the target data of the Japanese merchant ships into the fire control radar, adjust the missile attitude, and check the data of the launch system, they were still severely shocked.

After only a few days of training and guidance on them, these officers and men of missile operators have been able to proficiently master the operation of various instruments, just like veterans who have undergone several months of operation training. The quality of the officers and men of the Northern Dynasties was high, and the quality of hard-working and hard-working was tenacious, and the biochemical soldiers were not too reckless.

"The target azimuth 13, 28,591 ship No. 1 missile launch system is ready, and the countdown is 10 seconds. 9、8、…、2、1、0。 Launch. ”

A huge flame rose into the air on the foredeck of the 591 ship, and the front of the 591 ship was instantly enveloped in thick smoke. A ruby missile, nearly six meters long and more than half a meter in diameter, left the launch pad and flew into the blue sky, reaching a maximum speed of Mach 2.5 in a few seconds, heading for the Japanese merchant ship 28 nautical miles (51 kilometers) away. At such a close distance, the flight time of the Ruby missile is only about 60 seconds.

SS-N-26 is a new generation of supersonic anti-ship missiles in North Russia, which has the advantages of light weight, small size, good stealth, fast flight speed, and no need to care after launch, the missile has a flight speed of Mach 2.5, and the flight altitude of the terminal section can be reduced to 5 meters, using a composite navigation system, the cruising segment is inertial navigation, and the terminal segment is active radar guidance. Depending on the launch trajectory, the maximum range is 120 km and 300 km, respectively. The control system is a multi-channel radar seeker and an inertial navigation system with high anti-interference. The missile is equipped with a target indication data link system, which can independently discover and attack targets, independently classify the danger level of targets, select and implement attack tactics, and complete complex tactical maneuvers.

Twenty seconds after the missile was launched, it suddenly lowered its altitude to an altitude of about five meters above the sea surface, and at a serpentine speed of Mach 2.5, it flew towards the Japanese merchant ship. At a distance of about five kilometers from the merchant ship, the missile suddenly rose up, and the missile radar seeker was restarted, intercepting the merchant ship target. After confirming the target, the missile lowered its flight altitude in another dive, plunged headlong below the waterline of the bow of the merchant ship, and with a huge explosion, the bow of the merchant ship was lifted nearly ten meters high, and a huge hole appeared in the lower part of the bow.
