Chapter 444: This Account Must Be Remembered!

The data compartment of the warhead was almost snatched away?

Yang Weiping's eyes suddenly froze, and he asked in a deep voice, "What did the Americans do?"

Chai Shufan nodded vigorously and replied indignantly: "Well, near the bomb site, the US Navy claimed that its helicopters could help us salvage the data capsule, and in disregard of our warnings, they trespassed into the warning line that we had already announced to the public.

Fortunately, our helicopters reacted quickly, and the two Zhi-9B carrier-based helicopters that had been waiting for the air for a long time searched for the location of the data capsule within 10 minutes, and the divers quickly launched the water and salvaged the data capsule and loaded it onto the helicopter in only five minutes. A Seahawk helicopter of the US Navy, hovering over the nearby sea and trying to take the opportunity to pick up some 'ocean falls,' saw this situation, so it could only put down its bucket and scoop a bucket of seawater with dye to study it. ”

Yang Weiping secretly screamed a fluke. He is well aware that the landing point chosen by our country is in the South Pacific, which belongs to the high seas, and any country can engage in various activities in this sea area. If the US Navy really finds the data capsule and salvages it first, China can only shoot down the US Sea Hawk helicopter at that time except to ask the Americans for it through diplomatic channels. Otherwise, all the data of the Julang-1 missile will be backed up by the US military.

The vast waters of the South Pacific, about 1,000 kilometers east of the Solomon Islands, near the equator, are the most ideal landing points for intercontinental missile launch experiments.

This sea area, which covers an area of nearly 10,000 square nautical miles, is the international sea area with the largest number of underwater nuclear experiments conducted by the United States and the Soviet Union. When the United States carried out the "Apollo moon landing" program, the manned spacecraft was recovered in this sea area.

Regardless of the fact that the relationship between China and the United States seems to be as good as honey, in fact, the US blockade of the first and second island chains has never been more than half relaxed.

When Yang Weiping wanted to buy Diaoyu Dao in his private name, the Americans refused without hesitation, and Yang Weiping had already made Yang Weiping understand. The US Government is highly vigilant about the development of the Chinese Navy.

This is the first time that China has conducted an experiment of launching a submarine-launched intercontinental missile, and it would be a strange thing if the US Government did not pay attention to it.

Engaging in search and salvage in international waters is a comparison of their respective scientific and technological standards. Whoever can find out before the first is likely to snatch things away. Even if Huaxia claims that this sea area is a warning area. It is also impossible to really prevent ships and aircraft from other countries from entering this area.

The launch of intercontinental missiles and satellites represents a country's most cutting-edge technology. In the face of national interests, the so-called friendship with diplomatic relations is nothing more than a bomb.

The Julang-1 is a submarine-launched intercontinental missile, and it produces huge movements when it is launched. It is impossible to conceal the satellite monitoring deployed by the United States, the Soviet Union and other military powers in space.

China's ocean-going survey ships can track the missile's flight trajectory, and the US Navy's electronic ship may also track it.

If our "Yuanwang" surveying ship is not up to the mark, errors will occur in the tracking process. It is very likely that the data capsule carried by this Julang-1 warhead will be snatched by the US Navy circling the waters near the landing site. It is possible that even the US Navy will not admit it.

If your own skills are not good, it is useless to blame anyone!

Yang Weiping took the cigarette butt and lit another cigarette, then pressed the cigarette butt in the ashtray and extinguished it, bit his cheeks and said hatefully: "Chai Lao, let's remember this account with the US imperialists first! When there is a chance in the future, we will definitely treat others in the same way!"

"Hmm! you must remember!" Chai Shufan clenched his right hand into a fist. Nodding heavily, he said: "Our ocean-going experiment this time has made the Americans realize that the construction and development of our country's blue-water navy is unstoppable! The first island chain will no longer be a noose bound outside our country!"

Yang Weiping understood the meaning of Chai Shufan's words.

Because of the 718 project fleet, in addition to the Yuanwang survey ship, there are also China's newly developed ocean-going supply ships.

60s of the 20th century. Our concept of a blue homeland is only within the 12-nautical-mile territorial sea line. In the late 70s, under the influence of Yang Weiping, China's understanding of maritime rights and interests had a new understanding and interpretation at a deep level.

An important indicator of the modernization of the Chinese Navy is whether or not it can sail on the blue water ocean. Today, the success of the experiment of the 718 project fleet means that China has not only solved the ocean-going electronic survey ship, but also solved another important type of technical equipment: the ocean-going oil and water supply ship, which gives wings to the ocean-going formation and allows our navy to sail from the yellow water to the blue water!

Since China's navy has always belonged to the "inshore navy" in the past, the time for ships to stay at sea is very short, and there is no problem with replenishment at sea. At present, the 718 Project fleet has to travel far and wide, traveling more than 10,000 nautical miles, and it is impossible to berth at the ports of other countries on the way to replenish, so it is first necessary to solve the problem of replenishment at sea.

China's research on maritime supply technology started relatively late, and before 1979, the navy used an extremely rudimentary supply equipment. The supply ship is in front, with a tube with a buoy tied to the tail, and then floats to the ship behind by the action of the current, and then fishes it up and inserts it into the ship's oil tank or fresh water tank.

This rustic method with a primitive color is time-consuming and laborious. In peacetime, it can be used improvised, but in wartime, it will inevitably delay fighters and cause heavy losses. The United States, Britain, the Soviet Union and other developed naval countries have long adopted the use of rampant sailing for replenishment.

At the beginning, Yang Weiping asked the US government for four oil and water supply ships for the first time, and its fundamental purpose was to provide a reference for the ocean-going oil and water supply ships in the 718 Project.

Horizontal sailing for replenishment means that the ship to be replenished sails parallel to the supply ship, about 30 meters apart. A ropeway called an "overhead cable" was erected between the two ships.

Serpentine hoses are hung on pulleys on the overhead ropes to transport fuel, diesel and fresh water. There is a probe in front of the hose, which can automatically dock with the interface of the repaired ship. Luges and gondolas can also be added to the overhead rope to transport dry goods.

Lateral voyage replenishment can replenish two ships at the same time, and can quickly disengage in case of emergency. However, due to the combined effect of waves at sea and the rocking of the ship, the two ships sometimes separated and sometimes came closer, which caused the overhead cable to be constantly loose and tight. In order to prevent the overhead cable from being pulled apart, there must be an automatic control device called a "constant tension winch" that controls the overhead cable to be in optimal condition at all times. This used to be a major technical difficulty that our navy has not been able to solve.

At present, China is not only able to provide the navy with the world's first-class navigation supply automation devices, but also participates in the international market competition for navigation supply devices with the advantages of high quality and low price, and even the British Navy purchased a batch of 20 sets of supply devices worth 3 million pounds from China at the beginning of this year.

Because the British local manufacturer of this kind of navigation supply device has a minimum cost of 300,000 pounds, while China can earn 50,000 pounds per set of exports at a price of 150,000 pounds.

Under Chai Shufan's detailed introduction, Yang Weiping had a more comprehensive understanding of the ocean-going survey experiment that he was secretly conducting.

At that time, Yang Weiping was inspecting the nuclear industry in Shu Province, and the 12 ocean-going operation ships with the "Yuanwang" as the core, escorted by two 052-class (Kidd-class) anti-aircraft missile destroyers and four 051-class missile destroyers, sailed through the Miyako Strait, sailed out of the first island chain, and advanced toward the northwest waters of Fiji Island in the South Pacific Ocean.

Of the 18 ships that entered the depths of the South Pacific, except for the two 052-class guided missile destroyers, which were converted from the former US Navy's Kidd-class destroyers, the other 16 ships were all built by China itself.

In particular, the "Yuanwang No. 1" and "Yuanwang No. 2" used for orbit surveying, as well as the oceanographic survey ship "Xiangyanghong" No. 10, are completely special engineering vessels designed and built by China, representing the highest level of China's shipbuilding industry and electronics industry.

This voyage is a comprehensive display and test of China's shipbuilding capabilities, maritime navigation support capabilities, and maritime cooperative combat capabilities, and is a milestone voyage for the transformation of a land power country into a sea power country, and then "looking afar" at the ocean!

The fleet cleaved the waves, resupplying two Class 052 destroyers and four Class 051 destroyers on dozens of lateral voyages on the way. In this regard, all countries in the world spoke highly of it, saying that "the Chinese people have successfully applied the world's first-class rampant supply technology, which has taken a solid step for them to move towards the blue water navy."

At 10 o'clock in the evening of March 18, 1980, the Xinjulang-1 submarine-launched intercontinental missile roared into the air from the conventional submarine of the 031 ballistic missile located in a certain area of the Yellow Sea of China.

At this time, the sky over the South Pacific Ocean is full of stars, and the sea surface is sparkling. An important historical moment in China's national defense history is approaching. In Chai Shufan's words, all the scientific research personnel and the naval officers and men escorting the entire ocean-going formation at that time were so nervous that they didn't even dare to take a breath of air.

But with the "Yuanwang" survey ship, "telemetry received signal", "radar found target", "tracking target is normal" from the ship's "telemetry", "telemetry received signal" from the ship's "telemetry...... At 10:30 a.m., the data capsule carried by the warhead fell into the sea, setting off a column of water that soared into the sky.

Listening to Chai Lao's colorful narration, Yang Weiping seemed to be immersed.

In particular, when Chai Lao said that a Sea Hawk helicopter of the US Navy broke into the sea area of the bomb point in disregard of the warning issued by our escort group, Yang Weiping was so hated that he smashed a punch on the coffee table.

If he had sailed with this ocean-going fleet and served as the commander-in-chief, he would not have been able to estimate whether he would have given the order to launch anti-aircraft missiles from the two 052-class missile destroyers in the face of this sudden situation, and would have shot down the US Navy Seahawk helicopter that had rushed in without warning!

What would be the consequences if it were to be shot down?

It is important to know that this is a large-scale search and salvage of the sea surface at night! What is tested is China's comprehensive technical strength in radar, positioning, and ocean-going salvage!

After thinking about it carefully, Yang Weiping came up with an answer, he would definitely give this order!

In this way, he has really become serious about making mistakes and helping diligently!

Yesterday I had a birthday, and a lot of friends and relatives came, so I couldn't code words and updates, and I solemnly apologize to all book friends! )
