Chapter 985: Pirates? Navy?
The global situation is like this, the economy is inevitably affected, even if the country has been prepared, the loss is quite large, for example, some items that need to be imported, due to the impact of the war, from the original one month to Hong Kong to the current two months, the iron ore needed by Red Star is provided by the Netan mine, in terms of logistics, it is also inevitable to be affected, so that the production tasks of several production lines are also affected.
Of course, Xu Ziling knew what Zhang Lao said, and because of this, he proposed to produce a design drawing within three to five months.
"The general environment is like this, we can't change anything, let's prepare early, and if it doesn't work, we can use the reserves." Red Star has reached the current scale, it is impossible not to establish its own reserve warehouse, after several years of development, now the channel system is basically perfect, it is really not available, Xu Ziling considered using the reserve.
Red Star has unlimited scenery in the field of military industry, but in the general environment, their strength is insignificant, Zhang Lao understands that what Xu Ziling said is right, so naturally he has no other opinions.
Determined to set up a strategic bomber project, the next time will be busy, this day, Xu Ziling was busy looking at the design plan in the office, Li Cheng ran in a hurry.
"What's going on?" Listening to the hurried footsteps, Xu Ziling looked up and saw Li Cheng who pushed the door in, and immediately asked.
"Why didn't you react? There's a good show to watch! The destroyer spotted someone looking for trouble. Li Cheng's face was full of excitement.
After looking at the tactical watch, he remembered that he had shielded the lion before concentrating on the design drawings, and he was busy for most of the day, and his thinking was just a little tired, Xu Ziling stood up and asked while walking out: "Where are you now?" What's going on? ”
Soon came to the command center, and also figured out the whole thing along the way.
After this period of sailing, the destroyer arrived in the Gulf of Aden and was about to enter the Red Sea, and when they arrived at this position, Yang Kaiming, Li Cheng and others, who had been paying attention to the destroyer, thought that this voyage should be safe, but what they didn't expect was that just when they were thinking like this, Hawkeye found that several warships that were not inferior to any country set off from several ports in a state of encirclement and came towards the destroyer.
"Are you sure it's coming at the destroyer?"
"Confirmed. When passing through the Gulf of Aden, the pirate organization sent a reconnaissance fishing boat at sea discovered its whereabouts, according to the lion's investigation, the pirates would not have made the decision to hit the destroyer, but they were told to do so. ”
"Someone from the Temple Order?"
"Well, strictly speaking, it should be an Islamic patriotic organization."
After the start of the global chaos, the Islamic Patriotic Organization officially raised the banner, originally their most active place was in the Middle East, West Asia, and after the outbreak of the war, Syria had the support of the Red Star behind it, and it was not affected too much, but the Turkish country across the wall from it has become a hard-hit area.
In the previous naval battles, relying on a number of former Soviet decommissioned warships to form the temple organization of the navy, in the face of the Turkish army with the latest destroyers can only maintain guerrilla tactics, the same period of naval warfare, let them understand the combat effectiveness of the new destroyer, this time in the Arabian Sea found a new type of destroyer, I thought of the two destroyers that Turkey ordered from the Red Star before.
Now there is one, they can't beat it, if there is another one, what will be the result?
In this case, of course, they had to do everything they could to prevent the destroyer from being delivered to Turkey, so that several pirate groups that had occupied the northern part of the country were ready to attack the destroyer.
The staff quickly put the relevant pictures on the big screen, and Xu Ziling sat down and smiled when he looked at several of them.
"The 'Kilo-class' submarine and the 'Kirov-class' cruiser, this Islamic patriotic organization has a lot of skills, and it actually got serious Russian-made equipment, it seems that a lot of money has been invested this time."
The "Kilo-class" submarine is not too unusual, because this submarine is Russia's most exported conventional submarine, and many countries have owned it, and it is not too difficult to get one, but the "Kirov-class" cruiser is different, this thing was the world's first heavy missile ship to use a vertical launch system, and it has a bomb load of more than 500 missiles to shock the world.
What's more, there were only five cruisers of this kind ready to be built at that time, and all but the last one could not be built due to various problems, the remaining four were all commissioned by the Russian Navy, but the last one was also decommissioned at the end of the last century.
The Temple Organization was able to get such a ship, and there was not much energy?
Although the Hawkeye satellite has not paid much attention to the Solitan country, they have not exposed this cruiser since the beginning of the war, and it is conceivable that this time they have really invested a lot of money for the destroyer of Red Star.
The Kilo-class submarine is equipped with 3M54E1 supersonic anti-ship cruise and missiles, and the submarine-launched long-range strike distance of this missile is only a few tens of kilometers, and it cannot pose a threat to the destroyer at all, Xu Ziling glanced at it and immediately threw him into a handful, just asked the staff to put the information of the Kirov-class cruiser on the screen.
Originally, he thought that this cruiser would be one of the decommissioned Russian cruisers, but after putting the satellite scans up, he found that this guess was wrong: there was no difference in hull, but the armament was completely different from the ones in service with Russia.
"It seems that the fifth ship was not built at the beginning, but was secretly built."
Yang Kaiming and Li Cheng didn't know what was going on, and hurriedly asked what was going on with this "fifth ship".
"Does that mean the Temple organization started laying out at least twenty years ago?" Even if they were not the most familiar with the temple organization, after listening to Xu Ziling's explanation, the two of them couldn't help but be surprised.
"That's right, it should be about twenty years." Xu Ziling enlarged the picture, pointed to one of them and said, "I know something about this type of cruiser, it is equipped with 'Granite' anti-ship missiles, and there are 5 models of this missile, the last of the four Russian ships was retired at the end of the last century, due to the construction age, the most advanced of the four is only equipped with Type 3, but what about the one we see now, it is equipped with Type 4, and Type 4 happened to be developed more than 20 years ago." This proves that the ship was built later than the remaining four. ”
"'Granite' anti-ship missiles? I seem to have heard of it, but how about power? Yang Kaiming and Li Cheng didn't know much about this, and looked at Xu Ziling a little blankly.
The situation is not in a hurry, Xu Ziling also had the heart to explain to the two, "This thing is famous, you should know that Lao Maozi can sell almost anything, but this kind of missile, they have been hiding it like a baby, according to unreliable sources, the early model has reached the flight speed of Mach 2.5 in the front section and Mach 5 at the end, with a range of 600 kilometers, and can carry 750 kg of conventional warheads or 350,000 tons of nuclear warheads. Now the fourth type installed on this ship, what will be the power? The people of this temple are really powerful, and they can get their hands on this thing. ”
"The first type is so powerful, doesn't it mean that the range of the fourth type is estimated to reach more than 800 kilometers?" The two of them were really taken aback, they didn't expect that there was such a big killer on this seemingly dilapidated cruiser.
"It's conservatively estimated that this range has been reached!" Xu Ziling nodded.
"That should be able to intercept that, right?" Yang Kaiming asked with some concern.
