Underwater, it is a pitch black world, it is impossible for sunlight to penetrate the seawater, and when it is about fifty meters, it is already completely pitch black. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info And in this dark world, the confrontation between the two superpowers has been going on!

In the era of the Cold War, a nuclear war would break out at any time, and the reason why the other side was counterbalanced and made the other side throw a rat into a trap and dare not easily start the war was the secondary nuclear strike force! For example, the missile train that the Soviets maneuvered over the vast land, like the ballistic missile nuclear submarine in the depths of the ocean!

In order to confront the nuclear submarines of the Soviets, the submarine forces of the United States will often stand by silently in the waters around the submarine bases of the Soviet Union, and once the submarines of the Soviets are discovered, the submarines of the United States will follow up and play a game of hide and seek in the depths of the ocean.

At this time, one of the newest nuclear submarines of the United States, the Los Angeles-class SSN-689 Baton Rouge nuclear submarine, the second nuclear submarine of the Los Angeles class that was only commissioned in 77 years, gave up loitering in its own cruising area after receiving the order and sailed north to the Arabian Sea!

As the latest nuclear submarine in the United States, this submarine with a displacement of 7,000 tons has excellent underwater silent performance, and when sailing at low speeds, the noise has almost blended into the background noise of seawater!

This is mainly due to the latest technology in the United States, S6G natural circulation pressurized water reactor, if you want to obtain unlimited underwater endurance, you need to use nuclear power, through nuclear fission reaction, release a large amount of heat, these heat to heat the coolant, and at the same time release it, heat the water of the secondary circuit, and then send the coolant back, this back, is the need to rely on the circulating water pump of the first circuit, this circulating water pump, can be said to be the largest source of noise for nuclear submarines in addition to the propeller.

This kind of natural circulation PWR eliminates the primary circuit of the pump, and this PWR can be circulated spontaneously, which greatly reduces the source of noise.

Think about the Soviets, who only valued speed, and even built a liquid-nano-cooled reactor to give the submarine a high speed of 40 knots underwater, but what was the use? The noise was so loud that it could be detected from 50 nautical miles away!

Inside the submarine, there is no concept of day and night, and the sailors work in three shifts.

As the captain of the submarine, Johnson has been in a high degree of tension for the past two days, and he knows how difficult his task is this time, when his own aircraft carrier formation has not yet arrived, he will use one of his submarines to play hide and seek with the Soviets, delay the actions of the Soviets, and prevent them from taking off carrier-based aircraft to support the battle on land!

Although the task is very difficult, a submarine alone against a two-carrier battle group, it is either genius or madness, but Johnson knows that he has no choice, and the honor of the US Navy tells him that this mission must be successfully completed!

At the same time, this is also a good opportunity for himself, if he can sneak within forty nautical miles of the protective circle of the Soviet aircraft carrier, and be able to occupy the torpedo firing position, even if he does not really launch torpedoes, he can make him famous in the entire submarine force!

Now, all that needs to be done is to catch up and get in! Thinking about the activities under the warships of the Soviets, Johnson was a little unspeakably excited.

"Report, the aircraft carrier formation of the Soviets, 010 direction, distance sixty, speed twenty knots." The sonar soldier reported to Johnson.

Under water, it mainly relies on sound to determine its whereabouts, thanks to the advanced electronic technology of the United States, the sonar equipment on the Los Angeles level is also extremely powerful, mainly including AN/BQQ5D/E sonar, which is a low-frequency be/active search/attack sonar; BQR23/25, a more advanced passive towing array sonar, can increase the distance at which the submarine can find the target several times!; BQS15, which is an active, short-range, high-frequency (including on-ice) sonar.

Now, relying on the towed body array sonar in the tail, the aircraft carrier formation of the Soviets was tracked at a long distance, and now the distance was already close to sixty nautical miles!

"Keep tracking, we're going to speed up." Johnson said.

If you want to get underneath the opponent, you have to be faster than the opponent! Now, the other party is already at a speed of twenty knots, and he has to be faster!

As the speed increases, the propeller speed at the tail increases, and the noise starts to get louder.

"The Soviets are still accelerating!" The sonar man went on to report: "They may be taking off and landing fighters!" ”

The maximum speed of surface ships is generally about thirty knots, but they will definitely not always move at the maximum speed, at the maximum speed, the fuel is consumed sharply, so, under normal circumstances, it is the economic speed of more than a dozen knots, and now, the Soviets are in the Arabian Sea, and there is no need to hurry, their only reason is to take off carrier-based aircraft!

If you want to take off in a glide jump, you need a high thrust-to-weight ratio of the fighter itself, and at the same time, it is also very important to provide extra energy to the fighter as much as possible at full speed against the wind.

Now, there is still half an hour before dawn, and after these fighters take off, they just arrive at the battlefield at dawn, and it seems that the Soviets are fighting very tightly on the front line and urgently need air support!

At this time, it is the most interesting! Now, let your own submarine turn the opponent's aircraft carrier formation upside down!

Although your submarine is relatively quiet, when sailing at full speed, the extra noise will still radiate out!

In the sky, the stars are dotted, a full moon hangs in the sky, and the entire sea surface seems to be sprinkled with a thin veil.

At this time, the sea was rippling, the fleet was accelerating, and at the same time, on the two aircraft carriers in the center of the fleet, various lights on the deck flashed.

One MiG-23K, loaded with ammunition, turned on the engine at the parking stand, and the blazing flames, illuminated the entire wake.

Although the young Soviet aircraft carrier fixed-wing aviation units have been trained for more than a year and are fully equipped with deck take-off and landing capabilities, most of them take off and land during the day, and less than half of the pilots can take off at night, and there are only a handful of pilots who can land at night!

And just ten minutes ago, the Airborne Forces sent another message asking for reinforcements, they were attacked by another wave of armed men, they suffered heavy casualties, and they were in dire need of reinforcements! Therefore, although it is not yet dawn, the aircraft carrier formation still decided to take off fighters and provide support to the airborne troops, which is the task of its own aircraft carrier formation!

On the right side of the formation, a full-sized destroyer is the latest Dreadnought-class destroyer, the Admiral Tributs, with the port number 415, which is also accelerating with its own formation. (To be continued.) )
