Gao Jiantang interrupted Peng Huading's words with a smile and said: "Hehe, don't say it like a storyteller, quickly answer me, why the plane will not be eliminated and the submarine will be eliminated." ”

"Quite simply, the aircraft can be faster, higher, and more stealthy, and can quickly go anywhere to carry out military operations according to the will of the owner," Peng said. If you advance, you can quickly strike at the enemy, and if you retreat, you can quickly hide in your own air defense network and be protected. For the enemy to take down an aircraft, the cost of which will increase with the development of aircraft technology.

If you think about it, in the past, when you hit a propeller aircraft, you only needed anti-aircraft machine guns, but as the planes flew higher and higher, you had to use anti-aircraft guns, and then you had to use anti-aircraft missiles. In the future, aircraft will appear at supersonic and hypersonic speeds, and the altitude will be at least 20,000 meters, and the missiles capable of shooting down such aircraft must be expensive surface-to-air missiles and air-to-air missiles carried by aircraft.

However, as for submarines, the limitations are very large. How fast can you make a submarine go? The cavitating torpedo is fast enough, it's only about a hundred knots, can your submarine do it so fast? Can you carry so much fuel that can emit such a large drive? Even if there is a day when science and technology develop, and the submarine can reach a speed of 100 knots by means of electromagnetic drive, who would dare to drive it? As long as the planes are at an altitude of 10,000 meters, they have almost no obstacles, and they don't have to worry about hitting the mountain, only about hitting other planes. But what about submarines? If you're driving so fast, you can hit mountains, reefs, whales and even broken fishing boats on the bottom of the ocean. It's just a piece of wood suspended in the water, and hitting it at such a high speed is enough for the submarine to crash into scrap metal.

You must know that a behemoth as large as a submarine sails fast at a speed of about a hundred knots. It must be located at a depth of 170 meters below 170 meters so that it does not form ripples visible to the human eye on the surface of the water, so that it is not easy to be seen by people on the surface of the water without the help of any instruments and equipment. However, whether it is the Pacific Ocean, the Indian Ocean, or the Atlantic Ocean, there are not many places at a depth of 170 meters. You know, in the South China Sea, the average depth is only a few tens of meters, and it is very difficult to find a waterway that allows you to sail quickly, and if you are not careful, you will hit reefs and beaches.

Actually, even if it's a speed of 100 knots. It's really too fast for the ship. But for airplanes, it's like the speed of a snail, not to mention modern fighter jets, even the old propeller planes of the past can catch up with you. Once stared at by an airplane. It is impossible for a submarine to get rid of the enemy by speed. You can only hide and hide, and you can only rely on hiding deep in the sea.

But don't forget about jì. The premise of what we have just discussed is that we have anti-submarine nets that can detect submarines.

In addition, there is another reason for the high cost of submarines, the more you make the submarines high, fast and quiet, the more you have to increase the investment. At present, the price of a nuclear submarine is about a billion dollars, but if you want it to reach a very high speed and a deep depth, you can't do it without three or four billion dollars.

Besides, if a plane is shot down by an expensive missile, not to mention that the other side wastes several missiles, its own side will lose a pilot of a plane, and if the pilot is lucky, he may be able to parachute to escape. But what about nuclear submarines? Once destroyed, especially at high speeds, and at great depths, hundreds of naval elites on board will be killed. Which country can afford to lose? Now the core crew of the nuclear submarine is about the same value as the pilot, if it is an expert, the value is higher than the pilot of the gold body, even if the United States, China, Russia and other big countries lose it, they will grin bitterly.

The United States was killed by an F35, at most it was a hair of hair, but it was about to sink a Seawolf nuclear submarine worth $2.2 billion in the Pacific Ocean, killing 133 valuable submariners, even President Buban Niu would cry.

When our anti-submarine network is established and mature, I can guarantee that no country will dare to build submarines, which is tantamount to a child with gold on his back walking on a remote road, and even a kind passer-by will want to snatch the gold. ”

Gao Jiantang obviously still disagreed with Peng Huading's statement, of course, the main thing is that he didn't want to believe that the nuclear submarine would be eliminated one day, so he was very depressed, and muttered: "Forget it, I can't mean you." I don't believe it will be eliminated, and even if it is, it will be after I die. But, seriously, if my son grows up and wants to join the army in the future, I don't want him to be a submariner, it's too hard, too lonely, too dangerous. ”

Peng Huading said with a smile: "When they will be eliminated, we have to listen to our central bosses." If they want to eliminate nuclear submarines within 10 years, we have the ability to eliminate them all over the world within 10 years, and if they say not to eliminate them for the time being, then we can let the US nuclear submarines show off their might for another few decades. At least they don't know that this kind of flaunting is just a pure waste of military spending and money. ”

Gao Jiantang asked, "Are you really so confident?" Can you use serpentine machines and satellites to set up a network, and can you monitor several oceans? ”

Peng Huading said: "If we only use the plane, we will cover half of the Pacific Ocean at most and the entire South China Sea." And if we use new radars and new satellites, we can monitor all oceans and all sea areas within 10 years. Speaking of the future of submarines, I am really not optimistic, we can even use serpentine machines to carry high-performance bombs to directly blow up submarines. ”

……

The No. 08 nuclear submarine continued its experiments while sailing towards the Indian Ocean, and a few days later met with a ship anchored somewhere in the southern Indian Ocean, where it had obtained the necessary supplies, and then dived into the sea, headed for the Atlantic Ocean, bypassing the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa, and officially entering the Atlantic Ocean sandwiched between Europe and the United States from the South Atlantic.

At the beginning, the nuclear submarine took the waterway that the Chinese freighter had detected in the open sea, and after entering the sea area frequented by the US Navy, the nuclear submarine began to sneak at a very slow speed under the command of Gao Jiantang, while using the new passive sonar to pay attention to the surrounding movements, and at the same time using low-power sonar to detect the surrounding seabed, and using the corresponding sensors to detect the surrounding hydrological data......

What the 08 nuclear submarine did is what submarines of other countries often do, except for the United States and Russia, two global naval powers. It's not that they don't do it, it's because their two countries (Russia's predecessor as the Soviet Union) have already figured out the situation on the seabed of the oceans during the Cold War, and now they only need to pay attention to where there are submarine volcanoes and where there are large shipwrecks.

From this fact, it can be seen that aside from the technical reasons of submarines, when the US and Russian submarines are sailing in the open sea, it is often difficult to be detected by other countries, because the submarines of their two countries can run as they want with the existing charts, while other countries must run cautiously, for fear of rushing to those unknown areas, and when entering the unknown area, they have to turn on the active sonar for submarine terrain detection, which is equivalent to telling the people around them: I am here!

In peacetime, this situation is not fatal, at most the secret of the voiceprint and appearance is known to the submarine who heard the news, but in wartime, it is a fatal problem: people can find and sink you, and you can't even know where the enemy is.

The No. 08 nuclear submarine was in this embarrassing situation at this time, coming to the relatively unfamiliar Atlantic Ocean, always paying attention to whether there were submarines from the United States or European countries around, and having to turn on the active sonar for terrain exploration. You can't just be blind walking this time, and the next time a nuclear submarine comes, it's still walking blind.

However, this time Peng Huading is very confident, because this time not only the noise of the nuclear submarine has been reduced a lot, but also the active sonar and passive sonar of the nuclear submarine have been improved to a certain extent, and its performance has been improved a lot, which is enough to compete with the US and Russian submarines.

The North and South Atlantic Ocean is very large, the submarines are very small, and the No. 08 nuclear submarine has been working here for nearly a month, and has not encountered or found other nuclear submarines and submarines, only occasionally found some warships and ships, which is really no danger or danger.

On this day, after following the technicians to explore the undersea terrain for a day, the tired Peng Huading had just returned to his lounge to rest, and Gao Jiantang walked in. Peng Huading stretched his waist and asked Gao Jiantang, who was about to sit down, "Captain Gao, do you say that we are lucky or unlucky, why haven't we encountered a submarine?" ”

Before the No. 08 submarine was launched, Gao Jiantang was promoted from the original chief of staff to the captain.

Gao Jiantang said disapprehantly: "What's this, not to mention that it is difficult to encounter submarines from other countries in a month, and sometimes it is difficult to encounter them for months." ......, I'm here to ask you, we've been out for so long, and now it's time to go back, do you want to make some noise here before leaving? ”

Peng Huading smiled: "I think so, but you are the captain, it is up to you to decide whether you do it or not." ”

Gao Jiantang said: "The question is whether you are ready to leak the voiceprint and appearance of the submarine. You are a technical expert, leaking these is not good for us this submarine. ”

Peng Huading shook his head: "It's okay." It doesn't matter if the voiceprint is not voiceprinted, we just want them to know that this submarine belongs to our country, and as long as they hear this voiceprint in the future, they will know that we are coming. ”

Gao Jiantang said: "However, once our voiceprint is recorded by others, if there is a war in the future, we can input it into the sound-guided torpedo, and the torpedo will only blow up our submarine." ”

Peng Huading smiled: "Who knows when there will be a war with my country?" They can put their voiceprints into their torpedoes to blow us up, and we can also put our own voiceprints into our sound-trapping torpedoes to divert the enemy's torpedoes. Mutual, it doesn't matter. ”

Gao Jiantang nodded and said, "Then make a big deal and turn him upside down here." (To be continued......)
