Chapter 893: Two submarines, it's Iraq's lunch
readx;
The five-bladed propeller commonly used in the Soviet Union can be produced on a CNC lathe produced in the Soviet Union, but this special shape of the seven-bladed large side-oblique propeller can only be processed with the most advanced multi-axis linkage CNC machine tools, this kind of technology, the Soviet Union itself absolutely does not have!
In the submarine, the biggest source of noise is the propeller, the propeller of the submarine due to the uneven circumferential load of the blades, when reaching a certain speed, it will produce cavitation, sound and vibration, emitting high-intensity noise, although the Soviet Union has been improving the degree of processing, but it is still limited by its own processing capacity, and the West is very far behind. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info{{}} And now, such propellers, have caught up with the West, and this is the main reason for their sharp drop in noise!
Seeing this photo, James suddenly felt that this time the problem was serious, if the Soviet Union used this kind of propeller on all nuclear submarines, then the American surface ships, especially the aircraft carrier group, would be greatly threatened, and the existing Los Angeles class was simply not enough to eliminate these threats.
"We must find out how the Soviet Union processed this propeller, where did the Soviet processing equipment come from!" Weinberg said.
The Oscar Class 2 nuclear submarine, because of this accident, exposed its ass to the sky, and this exposure completely revealed its secrets. {{}}
The incident that happened in the Persian Gulf revealed a mysterious color everywhere, and there were no nuclear submarines in the narrow Persian Gulf, and now, there are two at once, one Los Angeles-class nuclear submarine of the United States. The first came out, floating on the surface of the sea, unable to move, and next to it, two Iraqi frigates, waiting aside.
This scene was filmed by the crew of a passing oil tanker.
And a few hours later. Sixty nautical miles west of the Strait of Hormuz in the Persian Gulf, an even larger submarine is struggling. I want to get out of this predicament.
Two Iraqi conventional submarines also surfaced, quietly watching its movements.
From the K-132 submarine. Several frogmen swam out, and they carefully examined the situation underwater, all with serious faces. {{}}
Climbing into the cabin from the conning tower again, the submariner reported to Yezhov: "Now, our hull is stuck between two reefs, the water here is relatively shallow, the existing buoyancy is not enough to support our hull, and if we want to reverse, only one-fifth of the propeller is in the water." There's definitely not enough motivation, so that's all we have now. ”
"What is the damage to our hull?" This was Yezhov's greatest concern, and after inspection, the internal pressure shell of the K-132 did not receive any damage. Now, what needs to be determined is the degree of damage to the outer non-pressure-resistant shell, as long as it is not very serious, then he is sure that he can proceed to the next step.
This. He made a serious mistake, violated the rules of the nuclear submarine, entered the shallow sea area that he was not familiar with, and sailed at high speed on an unfamiliar narrow channel, all of which could allow him to go back and accept severe punishment after the completion of this mission, and he bears unshirkable responsibility. Yezhov even speculated that he might be leaving his favorite underwater career and going to work at a base on the shore to stay up until he retired.
However, that was later, now, what he needs is how to get this nuclear submarine out of the current embarrassing situation, a whale, in the sea, it is a fierce beast, but when it comes to the beach, it can only be slaughtered, he must think of his submarine, back to the sea!
After the trip to the Black Sea shipyard, the next stop in Qusay is the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Ukraine. {{}}
Just as he left the shipyard, Qusay received an urgent report from China.
The Iraqi Navy has been integrated into the C3I system, through the data link, the intelligence was quickly gathered to the Ministry of Defense, Defense Minister Adnan immediately knew that the situation was not good, the handling of this kind of incident, involving more serious diplomatic tactics, in particular, this is a diplomatic means between the two superpowers, although Adnan is already a veteran with many years of experience, but still felt that it is more appropriate to let Qusay make decisions.
So, Qusay received the news in time. At this time, the Soviet side had not yet received the report, and Yezhov was racking his brains to think about how to get out of the predicament and forgetting to report to his superiors what he needed most now, but even if he did, it would be useless, because the Soviet Union did not have a military presence in the Indian Ocean and wanted the assistance of the Soviet Union itself, so by the time the rescue ship sailed from the Pacific Fleet, I am afraid that half a month would have passed. {{}}
After receiving this news, Qusay remembered that in the later world, the unlucky Los Angeles-class nuclear submarine, which had collapsed in the Soviet Union and inherited the mantle of the Soviet Navy, had long lost the prestige of the year, but they showed themselves to be still the ferocious polar bear with practical actions, and in 92 years, near Kilikin Island in the combat training waters of the Northern Fleet in the Barents Sea, an American submarine secretly renoited the training of the Northern Fleet at the bottom of the sea, and as a result, it was discovered by a Russian submarine, The ramming tactics commonly used by the Soviet Navy were immediately applied to it, and the result of the ramming was a complete victory for the submarine of the Soviet Navy, and after the submarine was hit, it had to surface and walk away in disgrace, and then, because the impact was too bad, it had to be decommissioned. And the Soviet submarines, after repairs, continued to sail at sea. Like that American nuclear submarine, called "Baton Ruri"?
At this time, Qusay only knew about the pitiful encounter between the American submarine and the Soviet submarine, and knew that the situation was now under the control of his own navy, but he did not know that the submarine was actually the Baton Ruri in the future. {{}}
History, under the impetus of Qusay, has undergone certain changes, but it seems that there is a providence in the dark, and it is developing towards the inevitability of history.
After receiving the report, Qusai keenly felt that his opportunity had come!
Both submarines, both ran to the Persian Gulf, that is their chance! The current Persian Gulf is its own chassis, and those two submarines are the lunch in your mouth, and if you want, you can eat them all in your mouth at the moment.
It's just that if Qusay eats it like this, it will definitely be inappropriate, and the most important thing is to use these two submarines in exchange for his own greatest interests.
In particular, the American submarine has lost power, and the only option is to let the Iraqi navy rescue and tow it to its own naval base, so that you can see this most advanced submarine in the world up close, and it can also have another use, use it in exchange for the E-2 pre-jing machine you need!
Qusai applied to buy the U.S. E-3 pre-jing machine, it has been a long time, since the response to the call of the United States, let the oil price fall too quickly, and the United States has entered a new honeymoon period, but, until now, there is no successful order from the United States this kind of pre-jing machine, of course, Qusay's original intention to put forward this order, is also the asking price, he himself knows, the United States will never sell this kind of strategic pre-jing machine to Iraq, that is, Saudi Arabia, I'm afraid it also regrets it, but, Now that there is a relationship between Saudi Arabia and Iraq, Iraqi engineers can completely study this kind of US pre-machine as their own.
The United States is vainly trying to impose a high-tech technological blockade on Iraq, and the existing technology that Iraq has obtained already regrets it somewhat, and if it exports higher-level technology to Iraq, especially high-tech pre-machine technology, the United States will absolutely not do that.
Therefore, Iraq's desire to order the E-3 is absolutely delusional, and that is a strategic pre-opportunity.
Kusai had to settle for the next best thing, E-3 can't do it, E-2 can always do it, right? The E-2 is just a carrier-based pre-jing aircraft, which is much lower than the Xing energy of the E-3, and even in some respects, it is similar to the Iraqi fan hunting pre-jing aircraft.
Qusay can only go another way, through Saudi Arabia to buy, who knows, this plan has not yet been implemented, the Americans sent it to the door, want to drive away this nuclear submarine, just take the E-2 pre-jing machine in exchange!
And this nuclear submarine of the Soviet Union, now the relationship between Iraq and the Soviet Union is so friendly, this favor, Iraq must help, thinking of this, he said to the adjutant: "Immediately help me make an appointment with Marshal Gorshkov." ”
In the past two days, he seems to have become good friends with Gorshkov, but after the end of his visit here, Marshal Gorshkov is about to leave for Moscow.
Let's hope he's not gone that soon, right?
Half an hour later, Qusay met Marshal Gorshkov again.
"Marshal, I'm very sorry, I have contacted you urgently this time, I have received a report from China, in the waters of the Persian Gulf, a submarine of your country has run aground because of a mistake by Cāo." Qusay said.
Hearing Kusay's words, Marshal Gorshkov remembered that the submarine forces had reported to him that an Oscar-2 nuclear submarine had not been actively contacted with them for half a month, could it be that there was something wrong with this submarine?
As a submarine force, many times, they are accompanied by loneliness, in order to conceal their whereabouts, they will not take the initiative to contact the base, generally every certain time, such as half a month, when it is safe, to contact the base. And this time, the K-132 submarine has not been contacted, however, on its route, there has been an American aircraft carrier formation, so the base even guesses that it may be engaged in a silent contest with the American aircraft carrier formation, so it only sent out a few inquiries and did not raise the level of processing.
Ran to the Persian Gulf and ran aground? For a nuclear submarine, this is a serious accident!
