Chapter 840 Planning Actions (II)

Send submarines over, this is not so easy to send, and no one knows what the situation is like there. After all, although the current Chinese aircraft carrier formation is not near the Diaoyu Islands, it is not much away from the Diaoyu Islands, and according to the defense circle of an aircraft carrier battle group, that distance has already entered the outer defense circle of the Chinese aircraft carrier formation, and there must be submarines of the Inner Mongolia aircraft carrier battle group belonging to the East China Sea Fleet cruising around there.

Coincidentally, that area is probably the range of activity of submarines, China's submarine technology has always been good, although there is no way to compare with the United States, but in the last two years, according to some intelligence collected by the CIA, China has at least four to eight new submarines launched, the reason why the data gap is so large is that at least more than four new submarines have been captured at present, but it is impossible to determine at present.

Underwater, no sonar has captured a Chinese submarine, and the CIA's intelligence is indeed good, but with the defense in this area strengthened above, it is already a great skill to get this information, but if Obama knows that in fact, the number of the latest attack nuclear submarines numbered 097 class newly launched in China is only two, what will be his expression.

097 class attack nuclear submarine, the latest nuclear submarine, but also with the star drop group ordered two attack nuclear submarines, after the transformation, 097 class can be said to completely kill the nuclear submarine of any country in the world today, including the United States Seawolf class is no exception, not at all a level of opponents, relative to the surface of the ship, the exposure of the submarine is too low, as long as you are careful, it is very easy not to be discovered within a few years, so the performance of the 097 class is very powerful.

And the other nuclear submarines that were discovered by the CIA. In fact, all of them are modified goods, in the modification of the silencing tile, and the technology obtained from the Virginia class, the original 096,095,094 and the earliest 093 have been modified, and the modification progress of these nuclear submarines has started from the 096 class down, and the modification has basically been completed.

096 and 094 are ballistic missile nuclear submarines, commonly known as strategic nuclear submarines, and 093 and 095 are attack nuclear submarines, which are the same as the Virginia class. Of course, there is a difference between technique and technique. However, even the earliest 093 class has improved the performance of the 093 by at least 30 percent compared to the previous one after installing new silencing tiles and improving the propellers, especially in terms of noise, 093 and almost below 100 decibels. The 093 class, which had already been confirmed to retire, had a few years of combat ability.

And the latest two 097-class ships have not only made a certain degree of improvement in displacement. The maximum water displacement was put to 8550 tons. With an underwater displacement of 13,000 tons, the 097-class attack nuclear submarine has enough space to carry missiles and improve the living conditions of its crews. Two or three months of underwater life is not something ordinary people can bear.

At the same time, the 097 class's ultimate speed on the water has been increased to 40 knots, while the ultimate speed under water has reached a rare speed of 53 knots. However, its membership has been reduced from 128 in the 096 class to 65 members. The decrease in crew does not mean a decrease in its combat effectiveness, but because its degree of automation increases rapidly, resulting in the fact that it does not need as many crews, so that it does not need so many crews. Each of its crew members has plenty of room to improve their lives.

Then there's the reduction of the nuclear reactor and the energy core propulsion system equivalent to the backup diesel propulsion system of other submarines, especially the reduction of the reactor, which gives it more room for ammunition and supplies. In addition, due to the reduction in the number of crew members, the 097 class can normally accommodate 80 people, and the maximum can accommodate 100 marines or members of the special forces to carry out covert infiltration missions.

However, these two 097 are not the submarine that the chairman showed them when the Inner Mongolia was launched, although the submarine was also delivered to the country, but the most Lu was improved, the improved submarine is the current 097 class, and that submarine has also become the first 097 class, but because it is the first one, the most Lu was simply given to Lin Hu, and now it is in service in Madagascar, and the remaining two 097 have been modified after discussion with domestic experts.

That is, now, Yang Yiwei has strengthened its ability again, the limit depth of the first 097 is 1000 meters, and the current 097 level normal combat depth is 1000 meters, and the limit depth is about 1200 meters. This depth, combined with the super perverted torpedoes and the super quiet decibels, makes the two of them like ghosts in the deep sea, especially the two torpedoes named the Hunter, which are simply the nemesis of any ship.

With a range of more than 40 kilometers and a super perverted speed of 250 knots at the last 10 kilometers, no ship can dodge its attacks. In fact, these two submarines are not near the Diaoyu Islands at all, one is cruising in the waters near Guam, and the other is cruising near Yokosuka in Japan.

It can be said that almost all the submarines of the United States and Japan in the entire Pacific region have been recorded by these two 097-class voiceprint data, and these data have been transmitted to other fleets and submarines. Once a submarine has all its voiceprint data recorded by the enemy, whether it is in motion or at rest, it is actually no different from a target.

In fact, the Virginia-class of the United States has long been a target, except for the three Seawolf-class nuclear submarines that still pose some threats to China, there is no threat at all, the Virginia-class has almost been dismantled into parts, and all the information has been understood.

Just like the F117 stealth attack aircraft back then, but Obama didn't know about it, and few people in China knew about this kind of thing, and the CIA was not so good that it could get this kind of classified information. So after the colonel made this suggestion, Obama pondered, and it was about a few minutes before Chris spoke: "Comrade Colonel, I wonder if you have any other news to report?" ”

"Nope." The two colonels spoke.

"Well, on behalf of the president, on behalf of the U.S. government and the people, thank you, but I still have to discuss with the generals of the military how to act, and if the two gentlemen have nothing to do, you can go." Chris thanked the two of them before saying.

"Yes!" The two soldiers stood up straight, saluted, and then packed up their things and walked out quickly, knowing that their task was to analyze the intelligence, and it was not up to them to decide what to do after analyzing the information. After the two colonels were gone, Obama hesitated for a moment and asked, "Chris, what do you think I should do?" ”

"It's okay to send submarines, it's okay not to send them, with all due respect." Chris hesitated for a moment before speaking.

Obama nodded and said, "You say." ”

"President, you have less than two years left in your term." Chris didn't think about it and directly said what he wanted to say, Obama was stunned for a moment and immediately understood what Chris meant, to put it bluntly, Obama has to think about these things for the next president, whether to do it, you have to know that if there is a conflict with China, it is not as simple as a conflict with Afghanistan and Iraq.

Once there is a conflict, it may be a matter of several years, so when you can be conservative, you must be conservative, at least let yourself complete your term perfectly, and you can't make a mess in your term for others to clean up, right? And as Obama's term draws to a close, it's not Obama who has to think about it, Congress has to think about it, and those members of Congress don't usually do much to approve when the presidency is handed over.

After a thoughtful nod, Obama spoke, "What do you think we should do if we send submarines?" ”

"It's nothing to send submarines, in fact, it's very simple, first of all, that place belongs to the high seas, even if our submarine is discovered, at most it is withdrawn, the Chinese government does not dare to do anything to our submarine, the two sides are nothing more than a ruffle, but before the submarine is withdrawn, how much information can we get, the project of the Starfall Group there, at present, we can only analyze it from the outside, but we can't see their progress from the outside, if the submarine passes, it can also be explored." Chris thought for a moment.

In fact, it is not difficult to send submarines, the US fleet has even entered the South China Sea many times, because the territorial sea is only 12 nautical miles around the territory of this country as the territorial waters, beyond the territorial sea is the exclusive economic zone, but the exclusive economic zone is not the same as the territorial waters, the exclusive economic zone is still the high seas, anyone can sail on the high seas, including the fleets of various countries, the US aircraft carrier formation has also sailed countless times on the high seas of the South China Sea, before China only had the Liaoning, when training, The American ships have been rocking in front of me, I don't know how many times.

Therefore, it is nothing to send submarines, not to mention that although it is a so-called private water, there is no territorial right in private waters, which is stipulated in the United Nations Law of the Sea, so even if it is a private domain, it does not matter if the US submarines go in.
