Chapter 709: Exchange of Interests
Interests are exchanged, and Pakistan shares the country's strategic weapons with China, so of course China cannot completely sit back and enjoy the results, and must pay something.
"We need SLBMs." "We need your help to submarine-launch this ballistic missile," Mhammad said. ”
A triad of nuclear strike forces, including air, ground, and underwater. Among them, submarines carrying ballistic missiles are cruising in the depths of the ocean at any time, ready to fire a fatal blow at the opponent at any time, which is a common scene in the Cold War.
Pakistan naturally needs to maintain such a force, and now, under the export of Chinese technology, Pakistan has begun to build its own attack nuclear submarines, after the exposure of ballistic missile technology, ballistic missile nuclear submarines have also been put on the agenda by Mhammad.
If it relies on its own development, there will be many detours to take, like the later generations of India, which did not succeed in doing so many years, and the result came out strangely, setting up a launch frame on the helicopter platform behind its own frigate and launching ballistic missiles, which is also the only one in the world.
It was only after many tests that Huaxia mastered the technology of launching ballistic missiles underwater, and the Xia-class ballistic missile nuclear submarine developed by Huaxia itself has also entered active service.
Pakistan provides its own ballistic missile technology and launch vehicles, and China helps Pakistan achieve the ability to possess submarine-launched missiles, and the two sides are mutually beneficial.
"At the same time, I also hope that we can work together to develop two new models." "The first of these is to increase the range, and we hope to be able to develop an ICBM with a range of more than 10,000 kilometers on the basis of this missile, and the second is to study the use of our current ballistic missiles," Mhammad said. Carry out the tactics of hitting aircraft carriers. ”
Ballistic missiles hit aircraft carriers!
In later generations, ballistic missiles hitting aircraft carriers has always been a topic that military fans talk about, and warheads that fall at more than ten times the speed of sound are definitely not intercepted by the Navy's Aegis system, even if it is advertised as a powerful TMD system. It is also impossible to effectively intercept ballistic missiles, and a small maneuver and orbit change can turn the interceptor missile into an uncontrolled rocket.
However, it is not very easy for a ballistic missile to hit an aircraft carrier, and also due to the high speed, which leads to the warhead in the process of falling, it is difficult to receive information from the outside world, and it does not matter if it hits a fixed ground target. However, to strike at moving targets, during the period of ballistic missile flight, the aircraft carrier formation has long been transferred, so the warhead must receive new information and change its trajectory during the flight in order to find the aircraft carrier formation locked before launch.
And the high speed of flight leads to a strong Doppler effect and thermal effect. Disable locking devices such as radar guidance heads of conventional anti-ship missiles.
These are all kinds of technical problems. It seems that it is difficult to solve, so countless bricks claim that hitting aircraft carriers with ballistic missiles is pure nonsense.
As a result, in later generations, at the military parade celebrating the seventieth anniversary of the victory of the world anti-fascists. Huaxia openly announced that it has been equipped with two types of ballistic missiles to strike aircraft carriers! When this news came out, countless military fans were boiling, this is simply a nemesis tailored for American aircraft carriers!
In this regard, the countermeasure given by the United States is if it is in a war. To be attacked by such a ballistic missile is equivalent to a nuclear attack! There will be nuclear retaliation from the United States!
From this countermeasure, it can be seen that the US aircraft carrier formation is indeed distempered with this kind of ballistic missile that can attack aircraft carriers.
Thinking about the later generations, the Americans' aircraft carrier squadron marched into the Taiwan Strait with great force, and the mainland had no measures to deal with it.
Now, although Pakistan also has an aircraft carrier group, its strength is still slightly insufficient to really confront the US aircraft carrier group, so Mhammad has no choice but to adopt this alternative way to study the plan of ballistic missiles hitting aircraft carriers.
Huaxia must also have interests in this regard, and the two sides can be said to hit it off.
Sure enough, after hearing Mhammad's words, the prime minister immediately nodded: "It's totally okay, I agree with this!" ”
The hegemony of the United States is built on a powerful aircraft carrier fleet, while China, because it has always faced the military threat of the Soviet Union on land, focuses on the development of the army, and the strength of the navy is very weak, and it is simply unable to engage in an all-round confrontation with the United States.
And now, the new plan proposed by Mahmad has actually appeared in China, and it is also being demonstrated in China to see if this plan is feasible, and with Mahmad's proposal, the two sides jointly develop it, which is a good choice!
Aircraft carriers, in fact, if you really fight against the opponent's aircraft carrier, you still have to have the same aircraft carrier strength!
Thinking of this, the prime minister sighed and said: "It would be great if our country also had aircraft carriers, and Pakistan's progress will impress us." ”
Pakistan is already building their own aircraft carrier, and now, even the catapult is available, and the entire aircraft carrier is in the outfitting stage, and it seems that it will be able to launch into service by the end of this year and next year at the earliest.
And Huaxia, there is still a long way to go, in addition to learning a lot of experience in Pakistan's manufacturing, Huaxia's temporary aircraft carrier is just a dream.
Historically, Huaxia's pursuit of aircraft carriers is also tireless, from Australia and other countries, the purchase of decommissioned aircraft carriers, dismantling research, and after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the three ships of the Kiev class have been dismantled in Huaxia, mastering first-hand experience, and the most important thing is to buy the empty shell of the Varyag, after floating on the dock for nearly ten years, under the technological transformation of Huaxia, it has taken on a new look, joined the Huaxia Navy, and became the first ship in China.
But now, history has changed, the Soviet Union has not collapsed, and those aircraft carriers are still in the hands of the Soviet Navy, and Huaxia has only obtained the Melbourne for research for the time being, and the rest is the technology obtained from the Pakistan Navy.
I don't know when the Huaxia Navy will be able to have a fixed-wing aviation formation!
"If you are urgent, we can sell one of our aircraft carriers to your country at a low price." Mhammad said.
Sell to yourself? The prime minister was stunned for a moment, now the Endeavour in Pakistan is a treasure, how can it be sold to Huaxia?
"Our 30,000-ton Intrepid can be sold to you for $250 million." Mhammad said.
Dreadnought? When did the aircraft carrier Intrepid appear in Pakistan's naval sequence? The prime minister was still puzzled, but after hearing the words of the Ministry of Defense officials who came with him on the side, he understood.
"It's the Indian Navy's Virat, which Pakistan captured the last time it attacked Kolkata." The person next to him whispered, his eyes already full of longing.
The aircraft carrier Virat, after being captured by Pakistan, participated in the battle of Visakhapatnam and temporarily played the role of an amphibious assault ship, but the Pakistan Navy still found that the aircraft carrier was too poor in performance.
As a result, the front deck is sloping to store more aircraft, and the space under the hangar is limited, which is cumbersome to operate, and it is not at all cost-effective for Pakistan to build a new amphibious assault ship on its own.
As for acting as an aircraft carrier, not to mention, Pakistan has long been analyzed, only more than 50,000 tons of displacement, there will be a better cost-effectiveness ratio, Pakistan is now temporarily two aircraft carrier scale, if the construction starts again in the future, the aircraft carrier displacement must be relaxed to 70,000 tons.
In this case, this aircraft carrier, which has been named the Intrepid by Pakistan, has become a chicken rib, and now, since the Chinese side has expressed its intention to want an aircraft carrier, it is better to sell this aircraft carrier to Huaxia!
Although this was captured by Pakistan and the two sides have a good friendship, after all, Pakistan has also invested a lot of military spending in Kolkata, and it is impossible to give it to China for nothing, 250 million US dollars, which sounds very expensive, but in fact it is not expensive. You must know that in later generations, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Huaxia purchased two modern-class destroyers with a displacement of 7,000 tons from the Soviet Union, and it cost a billion dollars! Pakistan only needs the price of half a Hyundai-class, and sells this aircraft carrier to Huaxia, which can be regarded as half selling and half giving away.
"This aircraft carrier seems to be able to only take off and land Sea Harriers, right?" An official from the Ministry of Defense, who came with the Prime Minister, asked.
Huaxia does not have Sea Harriers, and does not plan to introduce this kind of fighting chicken in a fighter that looks good, but is actually very fucked. If you can only carry the Sea Harrier, then it is useless for Huaxia to buy it.
"Of course not, this aircraft carrier can still take off and land Tomcat fighters." Mhammad said: "The British did this more than a decade ago. ”
The original displacement of the Endeavour was only more than 30,000 tons, but after the improvement, the displacement increased to more than 40,000 tons, and it was able to operate the Tomcat fighter, so the Dreadnought with a displacement of 30,000 tons can completely take off and land the Tomcat fighter.
Back then, after the aircraft carrier was built, the British did experiments, and the US Navy's Tomcat fighter could take off from the skid deck!
It's just that the Tomcat was too expensive at that time, and the British were extremely proud of their Sea Harrier, plus the hangar below was originally designed for the Sea Harrier, if the Tomcat fighter was operated, it would lead to a further reduction in the number of operations, so the British finally chose their Sea Harrier carrier-based aircraft, and as a result, in the Falklands War, the "powerful" combat capability of this fighter was thoroughly proven, and the British summed up their experience, and the new aircraft carrier returned to the conventional program.
This aircraft carrier is already a chicken rib for Pakistan, but for the Chinese Navy, it is precious. (To be continued.) )
