Before coming to Tibet Province, Deng Feng also had in-depth talks with the supreme leader and premier on the issue of China's naval construction. Deng Feng said: "Due to China's lack of a blue navy, not to mention China's maritime rights and interests, we can't even defend our own territorial waters, don't say that the Americans bully us, even small Southeast Asian countries such as Vietnam and the Philippines bully us, China's islands and reefs in the South China Sea are almost divided by them, and the oil wells they built in the South China Sea are sucking the blood left to us by our ancestors all the time." Of course, there is a 'human factor'. In the period of social transition, the armed forces must be patient and subordinate themselves to the overall situation of economic construction, and although there has been some progress in military modernization, the pace is relatively slow. The lack of sea power, as well as the lack of training in the navy, is also one of the important factors. Since 2000, China's submarine ocean-going training has averaged only 3.4 times a year, and the results of the most intensified training in a year are only six, far less than the hundreds of ocean-going patrols conducted by the United States in a year. Before the 094 "Jin" class strategic nuclear submarine was put into service, China's only 092 "Xia" class strategic nuclear submarine could only operate in China's coastal and inland seas, and had never entered the ocean for actual combat duty. Because the "Julang-1" submarine-launched missile carried by the "Xia" class has a range of only 2,000 kilometers, and because of the limitation of its location, the strike range cannot reach the European and American continents, so although China has nuclear weapons, Westerners do not even recognize that China has a reliable secondary nuclear strike capability. Even with the 8,000-kilometer range of the "Julang-2" intercontinental missile, the Jin-class strategic nuclear submarine carrying it must advance to the "blue water area" east of the second island chain in order to be able to reach the US mainland and ensure a reliable strike by China's sea-based nuclear forces. In this sense, China's nuclear weapons are just decorations, and therefore lack adequate nuclear deterrent capabilities. We are not short of money now, and the annual transfer fee for patented technology alone is more than $1 billion, plus billions of dollars in exports. We will take them out to build weapons and build our troops into a strong army that is revolutionary, combative, and modernized. ”

The supreme chief pondered for a long time and said, "I can't control the affairs of the hereafter. But not right now. In order to oppose imperialist aggression and deter our enemies, we must build a powerful people's navy!" Later, he told Zhou Enlai to form a special team and allocate special funds every year to strengthen the research, development and manufacturing of aircraft carriers, nuclear submarines and long-range bombers. China must do a good job in handling surface ships, underwater submarines, and long-range bombers, and build the Chinese Navy into a truly modern navy. Let the enemy be afraid. ”

In accordance with the instructions of the central authorities, the base set up a special ship group for this purpose, and first selected submarines and missile destroyers for the Chinese Navy. They are deeply aware of the role of submarines, and the greatest utility of submarines lies in stealth and ability. The submarine will always be an offensive weapon, and its defensive capabilities can be compared with surface ships even in anti-submarine warfare. Its offensive prowess is unmatched, and no other weapon has the gift of stealthily engaging an enemy attack and then withdrawing again like a submarine. Based on their own understanding of the Navy's missile destroyers and submarines, and a series of requirements in terms of power, armament, and noise reduction, the base ship group provided the central authorities with drawings and all technical data of several later submarines and missile destroyers. To be honest, the base does not know much about the manufacturing technology of naval ships. However, in the large-scale computer of the Air Police 2000, there is a large amount of technical data and technical information of the ships of various countries, as well as Wu Di, and the naval aviation of later generations also know a lot about the ships of various countries. After all, they took these various ships at sea as their combat targets, and they also had a lot of relevant information and pictures in their computers, and finally helped the Navy select the "Kilo" class "Type 636 submarine as a model" to build China's Dolphin diesel engine submarines. Later generations of the People's Navy's 168-ship guided missile destroyers were used as a model to build the "Great Wall" missile destroyers.

The "research team" formed by the ships of the base and the Chinese Academy of Science and Technology, together with the research and design personnel of the China Ship Research Institute, focused the research and design of the new ship on the following aspects to reduce radiated noise; improve the use of reliable surnames; improve survivability; It has superior seafaring ability; Adopt modular construction technology; Improving the surname of residence.

The two main ships of the Navy were established in December 1951.

At the beginning of 1952, the "Dolphin" submarine began construction at the Huludao shipyard in the depths of the Bohai Bay. China's first conventionally powered submarine, which began construction, was launched in June 1953 and officially produced in February 1954 after eight months of sea trials.

Submarines of the "Dolphin" class can be called the quietest submarine in the world today. The concealment of the submarine is determined by the quietness of the submarine itself, which mainly depends on the amount of noise of the submarine. The low noise of submarines can not only keep their actions concealed and avoid being discovered by enemy sonar, but also increase the detection range of their own sonar, so that they can be discovered by the enemy before they are discovered, and maintain the initiative in combat. With its sleek pear-shaped linear hull and short and thick exterior, the Dolphin class was the best solution that had been carefully calculated by the original designers. Its propeller is a 7-blade large sideline propeller with a speed of 250 rpm, and the diesel engine is placed on a cushion to run; And all the noisy equipment of the whole boat is closed management; The hull of the submarine is also embedded with plastic sound-absorbing tiles, which can not only absorb the noise of the boat, but also attenuate the sound wave reflection of the opponent's active sonar. Therefore, the noise of the "Dolphin" class submarine has been reduced to 120 decibels, and every 6 decibels of underwater noise of the submarine can reduce the detection distance of the passive sonar of the enemy submarine by half, and once the noise of the submarine itself is reduced to 90 decibels, then the marine background noise can completely cover the whereabouts of the submarine.

The Dolphin-class submarine is 73 meters long and 10 meters wide, with a surface displacement of about 2,250 tons and an underwater displacement of 3,039 tons. The submarine is equipped with six 533 mm torpedo tubes in the bow and a total of 18 Y-A 533 mm heavy torpedoes, as well as a rapid mine loading system. Six tubes can be fired in 15 seconds and reloaded two minutes later for a second strike. What is particularly impressive is that the "Dolphin" class can also be equipped with "Seawolf" anti-ship missiles. The Seawolf missile, which can be launched from the vertical launch system of a surface ship or from the torpedo tubes of a submarine, has a range of up to 260 km, has a cruising Mach number of 0.6-0.8, and has a 350-kilogram warhead, which greatly increases its long-range strike capabilities. In addition to this, the "Dolphin" class carries 24 sunken mines. The Dolphin-class submarine is also equipped with a large number of electronic and hydroacoustic equipment. The fire control system of the "Dolphin" class uses the Chinese "Pioneer" digital combat intelligence command system, which is capable of tracking and attacking 4 targets at the same time, and the preparation time from detection to attack is 42 seconds. Judging from the reaction time, computing ability, and tracking capability of the fire control system, the "Dolphin" class adopts a digital combat intelligence command system, the response time of the fire control system is fast, and there are many targets for engagement; from the point of view of the ship's armament, the "Dolphin" class has a relatively comprehensive combination of weapons, and there is no shortage of torpedoes, mines, anti-ship, and anti-aircraft missiles, and the "Sea Wolf" submarine-launched missiles have a long range and have very obvious advantages, and this "Dolphin" class conventional submarine will ensure that China will maintain its absolute hegemony under the blue and secluded sea within 30 years.

In terms of design, the "Great Wall" missile destroyer is positioned as a large ocean-going multi-purpose destroyer. It will build a reliable and advanced ship platform for our Navy, and also provide a foundation for the research and development of improved and updated ships in the future. When the initial design is provided, it provides enough room for more and more advanced equipment, but also for future improvements. Construction began in early 1952, and on March 20, 1954, the first 155-meter-long and 20-meter-wide "Great Wall" missile destroyer was launched at the Jiangnan Shipyard in Shanghai. Judging from the hull of the "Great Wall" missile destroyer, it is slender and plump, the bow of the ship is a large-angle flying scissor, without any external floating, there is no folded line above the waterline, the superstructure adopts an integrated design, and the tail is equipped with a small wedge-shaped tail. This design method can greatly improve the ship's fast surname and wave resistance, and to a certain extent, it can also reduce the wave resistance generated by the ship when it is sailing at high speed. It is flexible and fast. It has a displacement of 7,000 tons, the main engine is diesel-fueled power, using diesel-fired combined power, two-shaft propulsion, and a speed of 30 knots. It is equipped with 4 4-link C803 anti-ship missile launchers, 2 single-arm anti-aircraft missile launchers, 1 130-mm main gun as the main suppression weapon, 2 7-barreled 30-mm close-in defense guns, 4 3×6 multi-purpose launchers, 2 3-link 324-mm torpedo tubes, 2 "Sea Hawk" special anti-submarine helicopters, with over-the-horizon guidance capabilities, which can provide relay guidance for fleet ship missiles. The ship is equipped with HY anti-aircraft missiles, although the range is only 20 kilometers, and it attacks 4 targets at the same time. The "Great Wall" missile destroyer was equipped with a phased array radar and a missile vertical launch system.

The "Great Wall" missile destroyer can be described as a real "all-rounder at sea", integrating air defense, anti-ship, and anti-submarine capabilities. Although the ship's comprehensive capability is relatively balanced, it also does not have particularly outstanding combat specialties, and in order to achieve multi-purpose, the "Great Wall" missile destroyer provides a rare opportunity for these systems to pass the actual test and run in the system.

Actual combat is the only criterion for testing weapons. At the scene of the attack on the "Vikrant" aircraft carrier, more than 20 kilometers away from the Indian frigate "Nehru" and the destroyer Vossingh, the Great Wall-class missile destroyer No. 501 turned on searchlights in the darkness to search and rescue the sunken "Vikrant" The aircraft carrier and the survivor of the Indian frigate who fell overboard, fired two C803 ship-to-ship missiles.

Under the dazzling lights of the ship, the sailors on the five Indian frigates who had escaped death were salvaged by the destroyer Vossingh and saw the shattered bodies of their own companions who had been salvaged on the ship and piled up on the deck, and they knelt on the deck to cry for these dead companions, praying for them, hoping that they would not be born as Indians again in the next life. At the same time, they were glad that they did not die like their comrades. But they rejoiced too soon. These poor Indian sailors escaped the first day of the new year, but could not escape the fifteenth. Their good fortune came to an end, and they were once again thrown into the air by the enormous energy of the explosion of a Chinese missile, and then fell into the sea. A C803 missile hit the middle of the right side of the destroyer Worthsinger, the destroyer with a displacement of 1350 tons jumped upwards with the water column generated by the explosion, and the serious explosion exploded the hull, the hull trembled violently, and with the heavy fall of the high splash of water, in the terrible sound of metal breaking, the destroyer Worth Singer broke into two from behind the bridge, and suddenly, the bow and stern formed a V-shape, sinking in 15 seconds, The Voossinger sank to the bottom of the sea with hundreds of soldiers on board.

The Nehru frigate was even more tragic, the C803 anti-ship missile hit the bridge of the Nehru frigate, lifting the entire bridge into the sea, and constantly spewing dazzling flames from the huge crack under the blown up bridge. Accompanied by the fierce flames, the hull emitted bursts of sharp and piercing steel tearing sounds, the ruptured main steam pipes kept "spurting" outward, and the deck of the bright "Nehru" ship was covered with the corpses of Indian sailors, and the wounded sailors were bleeding and howling helplessly, and the picture was terrible. At this time, the hull of the frigate "Nehru" quickly tilted to the right. Then he flipped it in the sea.

"Damn, it's so boring not to do it like this. You're going to leave me one. Captain 502, who had caught up from behind, scolded Captain 501 on the radio.

"Ha, ha, old classmate, I'm really sorry, I accidentally ate your share, and there is a supply ship, which I specially left for you. You can make do with it and try the effect of artillery. Then let's write a report together, the weapon report" The captain of the 501 missile destroyer said with a smile, "803 is so easy to use!" One shot at a time. The power of technology is so powerful! ”

However, the remaining supply ship of the Indian aircraft carrier battle group "Vikrant" was very self-aware, and without waiting for the Project 502 Great Wall-class missile destroyer to practice its skills and test the effect of its artillery, it sent a telegram in clear code announcing its surrender.

At this point, the entire Indian aircraft carrier battle group "Vikrant" was completely wiped out and collapsed in the Bay of Bengal.
