Chapter 399: Stealth Strategy
"This two-aircraft carrier group will stay in the port of Algiers for the time being, the original nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Washington, now numbered Sea Shield 5, is now being repaired and is being tested, and it is estimated that it will be put into active service in three months at most. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 "Wu Chen's purpose is twofold, one is to use the strength of the aircraft carrier group to deter Western Europe, and the other is to protect Algeria's oil and gas fields.
The conventionally powered aircraft carrier USS America was designated as the Sea Shield VI and remained in the port of Sestopol for cruising missions, the Saratoga was numbered as the Sea Shield VI, the Independence was numbered as the Sea Shield VIII, and there were two aircraft carriers awaiting repair, the USS Roosevelt was designated the Sea Shield 9, and the USS Truman was designated as the Sea Shield X.
In this way, if it weren't for the fact that there were still a number of decommissioned aircraft carriers that had not been dismantled, the United States would not be able to compare with the aircraft carriers of the mercenary corps, of course, the number is one thing, in terms of technical degree and combat effectiveness, the navy of the mercenary corps still has a long way to go compared with the US Navy.
In addition, a separate aircraft carrier actually does not have much combat effectiveness, it is a live target for nuclear submarines and missiles, and the navy of the mercenary corps is very weak, and there are not so many modern warships that match the aircraft carrier, so at present it can only be a two-aircraft carrier formation for operations.
Two large and strangely shaped hulls, and four cruiser-sized hulls, were manufactured by the Northern Shipyard in St. Petersburg for a year and eight months, and were successively loaded by semi-submersible ships to the Black Sea Shipyard, and the relevant supporting equipment was prepared, and soon the installation work began.
This incident quickly aroused the close attention of countries around the world, and also aroused the strong interest of the navies of many countries, these two ships are at least 40,000 tons of hulls, obviously not medium-sized aircraft carriers, the bridge is located in the middle and front position, no mast is seen, obviously a brand new equipment.
The four cruisers are also different from the Glorious-class and Ticonderoga-class, with larger tonnage and larger volume, how can they have a displacement of more than 20,000 tons, and the same as those two hulls, there are no obvious protrusions, and it can be seen that with a vertical launch system, there are two protrusions in the bow, which seem to be some kind of hidden weapons and equipment, what kind of warship is this?
Except for Wu Chen, no one knew that the first two nuclear-powered missile cruisers with a displacement of up to 45,000 tons were a new concept warship of the US Navy, that is, a missile destroyer with stealth function, also known as an arsenal ship, but the Americans later canceled this project.
The latter four are test ships of stealth destroyers, similar to Zumwalt-class destroyers, and are nuclear-powered. Although there is no technical support from the United States, Wu Chen is still ready to try, and he can't always follow other people's butts, so he will always be controlled by others.
"The mercenary corps doesn't seem to be satisfied with the huge second-hand fleet, and they have officially started to build their own new warships, and every time they have new equipment, I feel a deep threat, and a new force that can bring together the scientists of the former Soviet Union and recruit a large number of top researchers from various countries may bring unexpected changes." The president said, looking at the briefing.
"In fact, we don't need to be too nervous, the mercenary corps does not have a strong industrial base, nor high-end technical reserves, and there are no large resources to match it, at most it is an experimental product, which is used to make money, not to mention that this problem can only be left to the next government to solve, and we have a year at most." said the Minister of Defense.
The presidential election has begun, and now all parties are vying for this most powerful position, mercenary regiments, for this issue, it is really not a matter, the mission of this government has been completed, even if there is any threat, that is something that the next government will consider.
"The Russian president has spoken to me on the phone, he has decided to resign early, according to Russian law, Park Kim is about to become acting president, and the presidential election in the United States is about to begin, we have to prepare in advance."
"I'm in charge of the Russian side, you're in charge of the American side, remember, there's one person to pay attention to, and that's the current Republican candidate, who is also the governor of Texas, and his father was president, and I'm very optimistic about his election this time." Wu Chen called Marcas and said.
If the investment in a US president is successful, the return ratio is very terrifying, and if the Golden Triangle Federation wants to continue to receive large amounts of aid from the United States, mercenaries continue to receive rich military resources, this is one of the best ways.
Of course, Marcas knew the huge benefits contained in this, and he had already established a good relationship with the future secretary of defense when he purchased the expired inventory of the US military in accordance with Wu Chen's instructions.
The figure, who had served once as Minister of Defense in the seventies, did not consider himself a second Minister of Defense, so he was very moved by the investment in Marcas.
Marcus is not an ordinary figure, he has a very close relationship with several military industrial giants in the United States, and has vaguely formed an alliance posture, and these super arms dealers with strong financial resources are important partners of the Department of Defense and the main investors in the presidential election.
The future secretary of defense told Marcas, who was the first to extend an olive branch, that the mercenary corps would be the most important strategic partner of the US military, and although due to the pressure of several major arms dealers, the mercenary corps could not purchase the military products of the mercenary corps, but in other respects, the mercenary corps could be allowed to work for the United States.
He will continue his predecessor's support for the mercenary corps, and the intensity will be greater, including projects, funds, weapons and equipment, will be tilted towards the mercenary corps as much as possible to create a win-win situation.
"Mr. Wu Chen, the cooperation between your Golden Triangle mercenary corps and the Russian government has been nearly four years now, whether it is long or short, although the two of us have not met many times, in fact, in my heart, you are my old friend and an old friend of the Russian government." The outgoing president said with a smile.
"Of course, although there are no permanent friends between countries, I would like to be old friends with Mr. President, and in your spare time, you can go to the Golden Triangle Federation for a few days, which is a good place to recuperate." Wu Chen also said with a smile.
"I asked you to come from England this time, because of the previous phone call, I have decided to announce my resignation in December and hand over Russia to Park Kim to be in charge, and the world in the future will still be a stage for young people after all."
"The last time in the SAARC war, our cooperation was very smooth, and it is also the best comfort for me before I retire, I hope that the economic and military cooperation between the two sides can continue, and the Russian government will sign a nuclear protection treaty with the Golden Triangle Federation, which is the last major decision for me to exercise my presidential functions." The president said solemnly.
