Since the British mainland is far away from the Falkland Islands, the aircraft carrier in the United States is not in a hurry to go to sea immediately, anyway, this aircraft carrier, at the highest speed, can sail over and join in a few days.

The maintenance work of the aircraft carrier is nearing completion, and all that remains is the sea trials, and the sailors of the aircraft carrier who have arrived from the British mainland are in place one after another, and Nathan finally sees the captain of the Oriscani, the bearded Lieutenant Commander Brown.

Although he still has the rank of lieutenant colonel, he will soon be promoted to colonel in order to correspond to his status as the captain of the aircraft carrier, and at this time, Lieutenant Colonel Brown came here and was very happy to see the naval aviation officers who had taken up their positions in advance, and he solemnly came to Nathan's front.

"Major Nathan, you are very welcome to come, as long as you are here, our aircraft carrier will always have only victory."

Lieutenant Colonel Brown is the captain of the ship, and Nathan is the commander of the carrier-based aircraft wing, in fact, the military rank of both should be colonels, but Nathan is very special after all, he is actually a civilian now, so this military rank is already very messed up Lieutenant Colonel Brown also calls him according to his previous military rank.

Major Nathan looked at Brown in front of him and said: "We have to complete the run-in with this aircraft carrier in a short time, the time is tight, the task is heavy, and we also have to learn to fight under the command of the AWACS aircraft, and in the future, I hope to cooperate well." ”

Commander of the carrier-based aircraft wing or the captain of the aircraft carrier, who has more power? On the US aircraft carrier, these two people are on equal footing, one is responsible for commanding warships, and the other is responsible for commanding carrier-based aircraft, and the two must cooperate well; otherwise, once a dispute arises, it will definitely not be conducive to the completion of the task.

Both hands were clasped together, both of them straining.

When he let go of his hand, Brown had no expression on his face, and his hand was still secretly sore, this guy has a really strong hand, and he heard that he wrestled his wrist with that group of Air Force guys in Alaska, so he broke the other party.

Now, Brown and Nathan have completed a silent contest and are close again.

"I borrowed four AWACS aircraft, because we are light aircraft carriers, so, after the formation converges in the future, there will be two ships operating on the Ark Royal." Nathan said: "Now, time is running out, our pilots, we have to do more training in the take-off and landing of carrier-based aircraft, and I have to fly a few times." ”

Nathan hadn't flown for a long time, and as the commander of the carrier-based aircraft wing, his command position was on the bridge, but he also had to be ready at all times, and if anything went wrong, he needed to fight himself.

While the two were talking, they saw Emily walking up quickly, and Nathan introduced: "This is our intelligence officer, and the information obtained by the CIA will be conveyed to us through her, and she will also go on the ship together." ”

The military is not a man's world, and the U.S. Navy has a considerable proportion of female soldiers, and it is normal for Emily, as an intelligence officer, to be on board with Nathan.

Now, Nathan introduced to Brown, who held out his hand, "It's our honor to welcome beautiful Miss Emily to our carrier. ”

Emily smiled, then her face became serious again, "Guys, we just got a top-secret piece of information, and this is bad news for us. ”

Nathan immediately frowned: "Is it about the Soviet side?" ”

Emily nodded: "The Soviets and the Argentines have come into contact." ”

The Soviets would get in the way, Nathan could already think of it, but it was not clear what weapons the Soviets would provide to Argentina.

Although Nathan doesn't know, the CIA can get it, after all, at the top of Argentina, there is the CIA's eyeliner, and it is not so easy for Galtieri to fall to the Soviet Union.

"Are the Soviets going to supply Argentina with anti-ship missiles?" Nathan asked again.

Hearing this, Emily was already surprised again, but after a while, she felt that it was normal, Major Nathan, that is simply a magic stick, an unpredictable prophet, everything can be guessed with great accuracy, and Nathan said the anti-ship missile, which was also expected.

If the Soviets want to support Argentina, they have to help Argentina win this war, and Argentina has historically used Super Flag fighters and Exocet anti-ship missiles, but now, they don't get this combination.

After all, two years in advance, if it is a Exocet missile, Nathan is not afraid, after all, his own side can expand the air defense network to two or three hundred kilometers, and with the help of early warning aircraft, it is impossible for the other side to come in at all.

And now, the Soviets are mixed in and won't offer any terrible weapons, right?

"According to the information we have received, the Soviets plan to give Argentina two options, one is a Tu-16 bomber, carrying a missile, which will have a range of 250 kilometers."

The Tu-16 is not scary, it is just a subsonic bomber, and what will it be if it carries a missile that can reach 250 km?

Nathan's eyelids are already a little jumping, could it be the supersonic anti-ship missile named the aircraft carrier killer? If that big guy flies over, it's really hard to deal with!

Nathan expected the Soviets to help, but when Emily told the Soviets about their help, Nathan still felt a little incredible, the Soviets' stuff was a big killer.

His heart sank, and he continued to ask, "What about the other one?" ”

"The other is the Tu-22M and AS-6."

"Damn." Hearing Emily's words, Nathan couldn't hold back anymore and scolded: "This war is not about the Soviets at all, what are the Soviets going to do?" Are they going to use what they are going to do with our American Navy against the British? ”

Nathan was furious.

Tu-22M and AS-6, that is what the Soviets prepared for the American aircraft carrier formation, the American aircraft carrier formation relies on a large number of carrier-based aircraft to intercept, and then relies on standard anti-aircraft missiles, as well as the Aegis system that is about to enter service to intercept it.

Even if there is only one fish that slips through the net, that battleship will be sunk, and if it is an aircraft carrier, even if it is sunk, it will not be able to withstand it.

And now, the Soviets are using this set against the British Navy, and the British Navy will not survive at all, and there will be no need to fight this battle at all!

Nathan's face was ugly, and Lieutenant Colonel Brown's face was even more dead, and he even wanted to ask, is this true? Then I knew that it was useless to ask like this, since the other party had said it, the Soviets must have been doing this kind of ghost.

Could it be that this operation of the British Navy was doomed to failure?

That kind of big killing weapon, they definitely can't intercept it, and their sea javelin system doesn't have that much ability.

What to do?
