Chapter 877: Dive to 500 meters!

readx;

An unknown submarine that has reached a position of fifteen nautical miles is a very terrible thing, and if the other party wants to, it will fire shè torpedoes at any time and take out the invincible aircraft carrier. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info{{}}

Although the Kitty Hawk faced a sudden crisis, there was no panic. It's just that at this time, the carrier-based anti-submarine helicopter is still in the hangar below, and it is being lifted up by the elevator, opening the folded main rotor to prepare for takeoff. And an S-3 anti-submarine aircraft on the side of the deck, which was more quickly, was dispatched to the bomber, fixed and ready to take off.

Except for the aircraft carrier, which was still accelerating and preparing to take off anti-submarine aircraft, the rest of the warships immediately began to slow down. In anti-submarine warfare, it is necessary to reduce the noise of its own warships, which must reduce the speed, and the formation of warships in anti-submarine formation will not exceed the speed of 5 knots. And after discovering the traces of the other party, it is necessary to accelerate the occupancy of the position, and if the anti-submarine helicopter finds the other party in the distance, then it is necessary to sail over quickly. Therefore, professional anti-submarine ships have very demanding requirements for power, while gas turbines start quickly, speed up quickly, and have high power, which can meet the requirements well, while the other two, the power of marine diesel engines cannot be very large, and the steam turbine starts and accelerates too slowly. This is also the reason why the Dreadnought class must use a gas turbine, while the modern class can use a boiler and steam turbine.

Just when the entire formation was about to pull out the unidentified submarine under the water, Thomas received a message. {{}}

"Report, No. 1 shell shè malfunction."

Bullet shè device failure? Drop the chain at a critical moment! However, anti-submarine aircraft are mainly long-range anti-submarine. It's to prevent the other party from slipping away. It is enough for warships with helicopters and formations in close proximity with their own anti-submarine weapons.

"Exclude immediately." Thomas had just given the order. The tens of thousands of officers and men of the tens of thousands of tons of aircraft carriers, except for the deck workers, seemed to hear the sound of a high-power sound wave hitting the hull.

"Poof, poof!"

Immediately, someone was alarmed, and the attack sonar shè. They're going to send shè torpedoes! Some people even exclaimed, it was the Russians. They're going to fire shè nuclear torpedoes!

Attacking sonar shè means death is coming. Although the aircraft carrier is huge, it is no problem to resist a few torpedoes. Battleships in World War II could take a dozen torpedoes. However, there is one exception. Nuclear torpedoes!

Although the captain of the aircraft carrier, Thomas, knew very well in his heart that the Soviets would not provoke a war at all. Especially now in power is Gorbachev, arguably the weakest of the Soviet leaders.

All this, just a provocation by the Soviet Navy! Because of this. He was even more annoyed.

That's right, that's a provocation! Underwater, inside the huge submarine, Yezhov had a smile on the corner of his mouth. In fact, at such a distance, passive sonar has been able to provide enough firing data for torpedoes. The reason why he wants to turn on active sonar is to demonstrate to the Americans!

Submariners are different from other naval sailors in that they live and fight underwater, around cold machines, and look at the faces of people around them who have long been tired of looking at them. Under tremendous pressure.

Moreover, of all the classes, they are the closest to death. A dive is almost a trip to death. Therefore, the psychological quality of submariners must be excellent. But sometimes it also changes the psychology of some of them. For example, some people like to have fun in this kind of stimulation. Of course, in Yezhov's heart, he still firmly believed that his exercise would improve the Soviet Union's submarine attack technology in future wars. {{}} makes a big difference.

"A nuclear submarine was found, Los Angeles-class, with eleven degrees on the side and fifteen at a speed of fifteen, and still accelerating." The sonar soldier reported. With the acceleration of the Los Angeles class, it was finally discovered by K-132 as well.

"Attack sonar. According to the shè target, the torpedo is provided with firing shè data. Yezhov ignored the Los Angeles class who came to challenge and said.

"Captain!" The deputy boat couldn't believe his ears, was he really going to activate the shark gills? It's touching the tiger's ass! Do you have confidence? Under water, if the opponent occupies the position of the shè and fires a torpedo, there is almost no possibility of escaping. There are many ways to get rid of air combat, and underwater, the submarine will never be able to shake off the pursuing torpedo, it can only depend on the character.

Use active sonar to shine shè, this is to be the enemy of the other party, that Los Angeles level, will definitely be furious. However, then, he heard Yezhov's order again: "The engine room is ready, running at full power, the exercise is coming to an end." ”

With the ultrasonic waves of the two attacking sonars illuminating the shè, similar to the principle of the radar, the sonic signals that were countered by the opposing aircraft carrier were provided to the torpedo through computer calculations. If this is in times of war, then the torpedo shè cover is opened and the torpedo is out of the water.

The 650 mm caliber super-heavy torpedo, that is, a special gift for the American aircraft carrier, at this distance, there is no need for wire guidance at all, only the torpedo itself can firmly lock on to the target, hit the opponent, almost 100% sure.

They will be the heroes of the Soviet Navy.

But now, the exercises are over. All they had to do was to escape. At such a close distance, if you want to escape the encirclement and interception of the US aircraft carrier group with strong anti-submarine capabilities, you need strength and luck.

With the use of attack sonar, his own side has been exposed, so Yezhov has no intention of hiding himself. The two reactors were running at full power, driving huge submersibles that began to accelerate underwater. This reactor is the same as the one used to power Typhoon-class submarines. However, because the displacement is reduced, greater acceleration and maximum speed can be obtained.

"The opposing helicopter has dropped sonar buoys. {{}}," said the sonar.

The reaction of the US aircraft carrier was very fast, and as soon as they hit them heavily with attack sonar, the sonar crew heard the sound of the US anti-submarine helicopter dropping sonar buoys two nautical miles away, and they were determining their own position.

"Horizontal rudder three degrees, dive to a depth of five hundred meters." Yezhov said indifferently.

If it were an American submariner, he would definitely think that the captain had said something wrong, five hundred meters? Yes, it's 500 meters deep!

Compared with the United States, the Soviet Union has a huge advantage, that is, titanium alloy! The Soviet Union is rich in titanium ore reserves, and now, the processing technology has matured, so the Soviet Union used titanium alloy to create the pressure-resistant shell of the nuclear submarine, so that the nuclear submarine has an excellent diving depth, Oscar 2 class in the sea trial, once dived to a depth of 900 meters unharmed, and now, dive to 500 meters, it is not a problem at all.

And now the United States, for the use of titanium alloy is not very proficient, to be precise, the United States in this regard, but not the Soviet Union is good, you know, when the original manufacture of the Blackbird reconnaissance aircraft, the United States in order to build the Blackbird titanium alloy shell, or from the Soviet Union imported titanium alloy alloy at a high price.

Therefore, for submarines, the United States has never thought of using titanium alloy shells, they use their own HY80 high-yield alloy steel, with this alloy steel to build nuclear submarines, can reach a maximum depth of 450 meters.

In addition to the fact that US submarines cannot enter such deep sea water, another aspect is that all the anti-submarine weapons existing in the US Navy cannot be reliably used at a depth of less than 300 meters.

All this, or because of the water pressure, the sea water does not drop ten meters, it will increase the pressure of about one atmosphere, in such a deep sea water, water pressure is a terrible thing, and even, it will crush the torpedo that has not undergone too much pressure-resistant design!

What does this mean? The U.S. Navy can only watch itself slip away, but there is nothing to stop it!

Isn't it because the U-2 could fly freely in the sky because it flew so high that no aircraft or missile could reach it? Now, Yezhov dares to be so bold because he dives deep!

In order not to expose the xing energy of his submarine, he just let Oscar 2 dive to a depth of 500 meters, which is also the depth specified in Cāo's manual without any restrictions, if he dives to a depth of 600 meters? What will the expression of the Americans be? What if it's 700 meters, 800 meters, 900 meters? I'm afraid the Americans must have thought that their submarine was wrecked, right?

The Oscar 2 class did not have a horizontal rudder in the bow, only a cross rudder in the tail to control, and with the rotation of the horizontal rudder in the tail, under its prying, the bow of the K-132 began to sink, and the whole submarine, like a cheerful fish, plunged into the deep water.

"The submarine was speeding down, and he wanted to slip away." Inside the Baton Ruri, the sonar crew reported to the captain.

"Full speed ahead, horizontal rudder three degrees, and we'll follow." Johnson said. Want to play hide and seek? Then let's play with you!

Deep in the water, the two submarines began a chase, and the Los Angeles-class followed the Oscar-class and swam into the deep sea together.

Soon, Johnson realized that something was wrong, and on the depth gauge, the pointer had already pointed to 400 meters, and he had not dived to such a depth several times since he took over the submarine.

Submarines want to attack surface ships, and the depth is generally not more than 100 meters, although they are designed to reach more than 400 meters, but they usually operate at a depth of more than 100 meters.

However, the other party is still diving!

"Balance the hull, stabilize at 420 meters, and the sonar pays attention to tracking." Johnson said.

Depressed watched the other party get into the sea water five hundred meters deep, although the distance between the two sides is less than eight nautical miles, but Johnson has no choice but to follow the other party, and he found that the other party's speed seems to be a little faster than his own, especially when the other party balances the hull and begins to move forward, it is even more like a feeling of not being able to catch up.

At the same time, the captain of the aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk, Thomas, also received a report.
