Vice Admiral Ma, commander of the North Sea Fleet, and Political Commissar Li, both of whom were already soldiers in their sixties, stood up straight, looking at the huge warship in front of them, with the same envy in their eyes.

If you want to have sea supremacy, you need to have air supremacy, and up to now, the Huaxia Navy can only operate within the range of land-based aviation, that is, to prevent the opponent's air strikes.

Before there was no air supremacy, naval ships were in danger, especially now, the main warships of China, including those brigade class anchored in the Port of Arthur Army, the main anti-aircraft weapons are still twin-mounted 37-mm anti-aircraft guns, which are simply not enough to deal with the current maritime threat.

In the Chinese Navy, the only one with anti-aircraft missiles is the Project 531 frigate, which is equipped with Hongqi-61 anti-aircraft missiles, and the performance of this missile is also unable to cope with various air threats.

Now, the second-generation destroyer, the Luhu-class, is under construction, and when this destroyer is put into service, it will have a point air defense system like the Sea Sidewinder, and the destroyer of the Chinese Navy can be regarded as able to independently face the air threat. It is still far from the world's advanced level.

And the Pakistan Navy in front of it actually has an aircraft carrier that can be operated, as well as advanced Tomcat fighters.

Just thinking about it, Political Commissar Li on the side said, "Old Ma, they came down." ”

The commander of the Pakistan Navy aircraft carrier, Haziz, who is also the commander of this formation, walked off the deck in a neat naval uniform, and behind him was Hussein, the commander of the flying wing.

"It's a pleasure to meet you." General Haziz gave a military salute, then stretched out his hands.

General Ma also returned a military salute and stretched out his hands: "I have been looking forward to you coming for a long time, and now, I finally let us open our eyes, and go to the Soviet Union back then." Such huge warships were not seen either. ”

"Welcome to the ship." Haziz said.

These personnel of the Chinese Navy were very interested in Pakistan's aircraft carriers, and at the invitation of Haziz, the first activity of the two sides was to visit this huge aircraft carrier.

General Ma and Political Commissar Li were followed by a large group of captain-level officials. Embarked on the aircraft carrier of Pakistan.

Standing on the open flight deck, everyone was relaxed and happy, and the thought in everyone's heart was probably to hope that they could have such an aircraft carrier.

Walked to the ship island, under the leadership of Haziz, came to the command room, there was a small aircraft carrier model inside, and there were two models of Tomcat fighters on it, which were exactly the same as the current placement. This is also the most direct way to operate an aircraft carrier.

"This aircraft carrier, it's really good." The Huaxia personnel who came with him sighed constantly.

"An aircraft carrier is just a flying platform, and the most important thing is the carrier-based aircraft of the aircraft carrier." Hussein said on the side: "Our Tomcat fighter has strong combat capabilities and can effectively play the role of fighting for air supremacy. ”

"At the same time, as a formation. It is also crucial to guard against enemy attacks. Haziz said: "The air defense system of our aircraft carrier formation. It is divided into three layers, the outer layer is realized by Tomcat fighters, the middle layer is achieved by our Sea Javelin anti-aircraft missiles, and the short range is achieved by our Sea Sparrow and close defense artillery. ”

Sea Javelin anti-aircraft missiles! From the bridge here, you can see the two Type 42 destroyers on the dock next to it. Also coming up, in front and behind such a destroyer, there are launchers for Sea Javelin anti-aircraft missiles, and at this time, on the launchers with both arms. There are no ship-to-air missiles, they have all been placed on the automatic loading equipment below, and even if you look at these, you can feel a powerful aura.

The sea javelin, which was almost introduced back then, was short of foreign exchange at that time, and at the same time, the domestic research and development institutions patted their chests and said that the Hongqi 61 would soon be developed, and as a result, it was not on the ship until now!

This delay has been delayed for at least ten years! If you have the Sea Javelin, you will not be afraid to watch out for the air attack of the Vietnamese in the Nansha battle.

"It would be nice if our navy could also have Sea Javelin missiles." At this moment, the captain of a destroyer said.

"The Sea Javelin missiles are only a temporary emergency." Haziz said: "Now, we have reached an agreement with the US side to introduce four Kidd-class destroyers, and the standard missiles on them are our main anti-aircraft missiles in the future." ”

Standard missiles! After a long period of negotiations, repeated consultations, and entanglement of various interests, Pakistan finally negotiated with the United States to introduce four Kidd-class destroyers, and when these four destroyers arrive, the strength of the Pakistan Navy will be further strengthened.

At the same time, the standard missile above will also be Pakistan's main anti-aircraft missile, filling the gap before the self-produced Aegis system is put into service and propping up the sky of the fleet.

"If you are interested, next, we can take you on a tour of our destroyer." Haziz continued.

It took two hours to visit the wide aircraft carrier, and another hour to visit the destroyer next to it, and in these three hours, everyone did not feel tired and hungry, and everyone had an idea in their hearts, hoping that the domestic warship could also have such performance!

Compared with various subsystems, the command system of the battleship is the most important, and the Type 42 destroyer has already realized the control and management using computers, and the brigade class also uses old-fashioned command ceremonies. At the same time, data links are becoming more and more important, through which it is far faster to share various data and assign combat missions at the same time than to convey passwords.

After the visit, the sailors on the warship were finally able to go ashore, and after a few months of drifting at sea, stepping on land with their feet on the land, it was a different feeling.

The welcome dinner was held at the headquarters of the Lushun base and was attended by senior commanders of the Pakistani Navy, at the rank of vice captain and above.

At the same time, on the Chinese side, in addition to the commander of the North Sea Fleet, even the commander-in-chief of the navy, General Zhang, also rushed from the capital to attend the welcome banquet.

"Thank you very much for your selfless help." General Zhang said: "If you do not provide air supremacy, we will have more pressure to recover the Spratly Islands. ”

No matter how much you say thank you, you can't express your heartfelt gratitude, the Pakistan Navy did a great favor this time, which had nothing to do with the Pakistan Navy, but they stayed in the South China Sea to help provide air supremacy, and even attacked Vietnamese warplanes and warships.

In this operation, the Huaxia Navy became a supporting role.

"Huaxia is our most sincere friend." Haziz said: "In several wars between India and Pakistan, China has provided us with selfless help, and we in Pakistan are the country that knows how to cherish our friends the most. On behalf of our President, allow me to extend my most sincere greetings to your President and General Secretary. ”

"Yes, we are the most sincere friends." General Zhang said, "Let's toast to friendship." ”

Pakistanis don't drink alcohol, their glasses are full of drinks, but this does not prevent the friendship between the two sides at the wine table, and after drinking the drinks, the faces of both parties are full of smiles again.

"Pakistan's achievements over the years are obvious to all, your country has been helping Afghanistan in the just war, and at the same time, the domestic economy has also developed by leaps and bounds." General Zhang said: "A lot of your experience is worth learning from. ”

China is also carrying out reform and opening up and developing the economy in China, but it is far less than Pakistan, which makes everyone curious about Pakistan, how did this country develop in the war?

A careful analysis shows that in addition to plundering India, the focus is on developing domestic basic industries and improving the level of education, all of which are imperceptible.

Of course, the most important thing about Pakistan's leapfrog development is actually investment in the international financial market, which is all secret, and if the British knew that their pound crisis was caused by Pakistan's huge financial funds, they would probably declare war with Pakistan.

"Your country is also full of vitality through reform and opening up." "We believe that after your economic development, you will have more funds to invest in military construction, and you will have aircraft carriers like ours," Haziz said. ”

There will be bread, everything will be there, and the current China, after reform, is also full of vitality.

"We in China have a long coastline and a lot of sea power that needs to be maintained, and we really need aircraft carriers." Admiral Zhang, commander of the Navy, expressed his feelings.

At present, the focus of the state's investment in the armed forces is still on the ground forces, followed by the air force, and the navy is the least, and the navy is the most expensive branch of the military.

"This time your side fought very beautifully, especially the missile boat that killed the Vietnamese, and it was even more wonderful." Lieutenant General Ma said.

"It's over." Tasnim stood up: "We submariners, that is, ghosts hidden under the sea, surprise is our magic weapon. ”

After saying that, Tasnim paused and continued: "We really want to have an exchange with our Chinese counterparts. ”

"Absolutely." General Zhang immediately agreed: "They should learn from your experience, until now, our submarine force has not had any combat exploits. ”

"We want to go to Xiaoping Island and board the submarine there, and it would be nice if we could stay underwater for a few days with us." Tasnim said.

Kodaira Island! It's a nuclear submarine base in China! Listening to Tasnim's words, everyone was stunned, it turned out that the other party wanted to visit their own nuclear submarine! (To be continued......)
