Chapter 102: Kitty Hawk Aircraft Carrier

The warm Pacific breeze blows to the island of Honshu, and although the latitude is high enough, the people of the island country have never felt the cold of East Asia, which is why there are women in skirts and bare calves on the land of the island country all year round, and it is a very suitable place for human habitation.

At this time, at the entrance to Tokyo Bay, there were many masts, and warships were moored everywhere.

This is the island country's Yokosuka Port, the geographical location is excellent, connected by Yokohama City in the north, and the east coast of Yokosuka City in the south, the port is blessed with berthing facilities, ship repair capacity, oil and ammunition storage equipment, and military rest facilities, etc., it can be said that it is almost the first military port in the East!

The port's location in the open waters, slow waters, and the need for dredging made it a naval port for the island nation for a long time, and the U.S. military landed here after the end of World War II and was stationed on the site of the former Japanese naval yard in Yokosuka. As a victorious country, the United States began to station troops in the island country, and in 47 years, the US military successively set up ship repair departments, supply depots, and port departments, forming a de facto US naval base. After the signing of the San Francisco Peace Treaty, the island nation formally provided the Yokosuka base to the U.S. military in '52 under the Japan-U.S. Security Treaty. The Yokosuka base officially became the joint location of the Command of the Maritime Self-Defense Fleet of the island nation and the Command of the U.S. Navy in Japan (also known as the Command of the 7th Fleet).

After that, the aircraft carrier Midway was stationed here, and many of the officers and men of the aircraft carrier also moved their families to Yokosuka, and due to the shortage of barracks in the base, many people had to find houses to live outside, and even caused most of the residents in the city of Yokosuka to be Americans, and the entire economy of Yokosuka was completely for the Americans.

At this time, in the harbor, a large warship was moored, this warship had a rather wide deck, and its size was much wider than that of the previous Midway.

On the ship island, the huge number 63 represents the identity of this aircraft carrier, it is CV-63, the aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk!

As a giant warship with a full load displacement of more than 80,000 tons, and as the last conventionally powered aircraft carrier of the United States, this warship has four catapults and carries as many as 80 aircraft.

Standing on the tall bridge, the captain of the ship, Colonel Steve Blanch, and the commander of the flying wing, Colonel Ted Petroburi, were engaged in final consultations.

"The MiG-25 of the Red Empire is too much of a threat to us." "Since our Blackbird was shot down, we haven't conducted reconnaissance activities in the Far East," Steve said. Now that our Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier group has arrived at the island nation, our first task is to suppress the Soviets' MiG-25."

"No one can take advantage of our Tomcat fighters." Colonel Ted said, "Our boys, you're ready. ā€

"The Pentagon has mandated us to conduct a maritime exercise to demonstrate our force, but Commander Jonad instructed us to select the eastern Pacific as the location for the exercise." Steve continued: "Such a drill is simply a waste of fuel and has no effect! I decided that the location of our exercise would be in the Sea of Japan. ā€

Vice Admiral Jonad Williams, commander of the Seventh Fleet, is simply a coward, what are you afraid of? The combat effectiveness of the entire aircraft carrier formation of our side is very large, and now that we want to show off our strength, of course, we have chosen the Sea of Japan! Even if it fights the Pacific Fleet with the Soviets, they are not afraid, not to mention that the Soviets do not want to fall into a full-scale war with the United States, and they will definitely refrain from it, and they are also on the east side of the middle line of the Sea of Japan, so they do not have to worry about the threat of the Soviets at all.

If the Soviets' MiG-25 fighters come, it's just time for a contest! This kind of silent contest took place almost every day on the front line of the confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union.

Although it is now necessary to listen to the orders of the commander of the Seventh Fleet, once at sea, Colonel Steve, as the captain of the aircraft carrier, has the right to command the entire aircraft carrier formation and change the course, which is completely fine.

Hearing Steve's words, Ted stood up, looked at the carrier-based aircraft on the deck, and then looked at the dock, where a car was moving, and he said lightly: "Okay, I completely agree." ā€

The combat effectiveness of an aircraft carrier is reflected in the carrier-based aircraft, and as the commander of the flight wing, he often has more authority than the commander of the aircraft carrier; as this time, the commander of the aircraft carrier must obtain the affirmation of the commander of the flight wing before he can give an order.

Colonel Ted is also full of war, he has heard about the situation on the island country's side, it is completely shameless for the Soviets, hit their own EP-3 electronic reconnaissance plane, and completely detain it, not only did the plane not return to the American side, even the personnel above refused to deliver, it is said that those crew members have gone to work as miners in a certain mountain in Siberia, and they simply don't take the Americans seriously!

The experience of the past six months is almost all shame, those guys in the Air Force, the combat effectiveness is too scum, and at a critical time, you have to rely on the Navy! Let your Tomcat fighter abuse the MiG-25 of the Soviets, Ted is already imagining what kind of expression the other party will look on when the AWG-9 radar of his Tomcat fighter locks onto the MiG-25 fighter.

"Report, Lieutenant General." Just then, the hatch of the operations command room was opened, and the co-captain came in to report.

Medium in the future? The two stood up at the same time, looked outside, and saw a burly middle-aged man in a navy uniform walking in, carrying a shining star on the other party's shoulders.

"Lieutenant General Jonad." The two shouted in unison, and at the same time muttered in their hearts, at this time, what will Zhongzhong do in the future? At the welcoming ceremony a few days ago, the lieutenant general had already seen his own warship, and besides, he had just finished a meeting at the base this morning, so the lieutenant general was so interested?

"Both, I've brought my bunk rolls to the warship, you won't mind if I'm a bad old man who stays on the warship for a few days, do you?"

Hearing Jonad's words, both of them secretly screamed in their hearts that it was not good, bad, why did the emperor come here?

The U.S. aircraft carrier is an important embodiment of the U.S. military strength, and many times, the aircraft carrier will usher in more senior officials, and naval commanders at all levels will often come to the aircraft carrier to participate in missions.

Of course, these officers know their duties and do not easily point fingers to interfere in specific combat missions, but ... The idea that the two had just planned to make a detour through the Sea of Japan for an exercise to deter was completely yellow. With the commander of the Seventh Fleet here, where would they dare to change course!

"Of course welcome, Lieutenant General Jonad, I have already sent someone to clean your cabin." Steve said. The aircraft carrier is on the bridge, and the cabins are specially reserved for the senior personnel sent by the superiors, which have been kept in a tidy state all the time.

"Okay, then I'll stay for a few days and participate in our exercise." Lieutenant General Jonad said: "Go as planned, I'm here to visit." ā€
