A black-covered submarine slowly emerged from underwater, and then, less than two nautical miles from the nearest helicopter, the bow of the submarine burst out of the water, and then slammed into the water, splashing a white wave.

This is the dynamic upward attitude of the submarine in an emergency, similar to the climbing process of a fighter jet, which is much faster than relying solely on buoyancy.

The three Frenchmen above AS565 watched in amazement at what was happening in front of them.

The pilot shook his whole body and almost sent the crew away along with the plane:

"This is a Huaxia submarine?"

The conscience of heaven and earth, he is just a person in charge of flying a helicopter.

It's not even specifically about flying anti-submarine helicopters.

Coupled with the fact that the French Navy has hardly been to Asian waters since it was driven away by the equally armed Vietnamese, it is not uncommon not to recognize these submarines that at first glance seem to be similar.

In fact, a few minutes ago, he had already realized that something was wrong.

Although there is no warhead for the mine, it may still cause some malfunctions if it crashes headfirst into the submarine.

Moreover, in the exercise plan, submarine attack and submarine search are also separated.

As a result, as soon as they reported their position, they saw that a torpedo hanging on the other side had been dropped......

No matter how close to the actual combat exercise, it shouldn't really come to this point, right?

Now this submarine that suddenly drilled out has deepened this sense of foreboding.

No, ten or even nine points are wrong.

And the anti-submarine sonar operator sitting in the back was already confused.

Compared to the two pilots, he is the one who is really responsible for anti-submarine.

So, almost immediately after the splash disappeared, the submarine's belonging was recognized:

“fils de pute…… This is a spring tide class! ”

The sonar operator was also in disbelief, so he pulled open the hatch on the side of the helicopter and poked his head out to take a closer look.

Then confirm that it is really a spring tide level.

The outrageous plot development made the two pilots in front of them not turn their minds for a while:

"Can the Chinese invite the Japanese as imaginary enemies in the exercise?"

This imaginary enemy is inevitably a little too real.

"What an imaginary enemy, that's true!"

"This submarine is here to monitor our exercises, and by mistake it was discovered by the helicopter in charge of searching for submarines!"

"Together with the Huaxia Navy, we blew up a submarine of the Maritime Self-Defense Force!"

The operator returned to the cabin and snarled and explained to the two companions in front of him, who were still unclear.

His whole body was numb, and he quickly grabbed the radio next to him and put it on his head, ready to report the matter to the Jean-Bar, which was more than ten nautical miles away.

At the same time, in the other two Huaxia helicopters, the atmosphere was naturally jubilant.

In the state of fighting but not breaking, there are various types of games between submarines and anti-submarines.

But generally speaking, being able to detect and force the submarine to the initiative in advance basically means complete victory.

This time, in the face of Haizi's most cutting-edge Chunchao-class submarine, although the speed of effective response was a little slow, after discovering the target, the response was quite effective.

It's definitely a big face.

"Quick, do any of you have a camera?"

The pilot of aircraft No. 9686 asked over the radio.

Because he saw several crew members appear in the hull of the submarine, holding a flag of the sea in their hands, as if they were about to hang it to show their identity.

Judging from their somewhat dejected expressions, they were obviously frightened by the round of gongs and drums just now.

In peacetime, if this scene is filmed, it can be counted as a record after going back.

Compared with anti-submarine warfare, these carrier-based helicopters of the North Sea Fleet Aviation are actually used for verification, search and rescue, and aerial photography more often, so there is often an ordinary film camera in the cabin.

On the other side, No. 9696, which was flying around the submarine, quickly gave a positive response.

"The photos have been taken!"

"Today is a day to remember......"

Through the side window, the pilot looked at the submarine on the water, which had raised its military flag and was slightly embarrassed, and sighed.

Soon, the outcome of the incident reached the two warships that were speeding up.

"The pilot reported that he had forced the submarine out of the water, and judged that it should be the Spring Tide class of the Maritime Self-Defense Force, but because there was no mark on the boat, there was no way to figure out which one it was for the time being."

The radio liaison officer turned around and reported the news to the rest of the CIC.

Naturally, everyone was refreshed.

"Good!"

Captain Luo Zhangming clenched his fist with his right hand and smashed it into the palm of his left hand, making a "snap" sound:

"Just catch it!"

The contest between the surface and the water is generally a matter that both sides tend to keep secret.

In fact, in these years, Huaxia has not even solved the most basic fleet air defense, and the anti-submarine defense is in a state of almost complete abandonment.

With the exception of the two 052s, there is basically no third warship that can pose a threat to modern submarines.

In fact, to expand the scope of some things, these two 052 are also the only two warships that the Chinese Navy can barely call "modern".

As a comparison, just last month, the Maritime Self-Defense Force just commissioned the fourth Kongo-class destroyer equipped with the Aegis system, the Chokai, which directly opened the generation gap with the Chinese Navy in terms of equipment level.

For the Chinese naval officers of this era, not to mention the other side of the ocean, even Haizi can be regarded as a first-class strong enemy.

However, no matter what the overall strength says, at least today, a win is a win.

Dishes, just practice more, if you can't afford to play, don't play.

However, the surprises are not over yet.

After a few moments, the radio operator went on to report:

"In addition, No. 9696 also reported that they had taken photographs for evidence and left image materials."

At this moment, even Yang Shuyu, who had been sitting firmly next to the chart table, clenched his fists excitedly and said to Luo Zhangming next to him:

"When I go back, I will personally ask you for credit!"

You must know that in similar confrontations in the East China Sea in recent years, limited by the gap in the level of equipment, there are not many opportunities to take advantage.

Not to mention a big win like today.

"France asked us, what the hell is going on with that submarine?"

At that moment, the liaison turned back from a short distance and asked a few people who were celebrating.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Yang Shuyu.

Now that the anti-submarine operation has ended victoriously, the command has naturally returned to him.

To tell the truth, of course, it cannot be said.

But it can't be completely nonsense.

After a little thought, the latter raised his head:

"Tell them that we don't know yet, and we need to investigate slowly after we go back, and they have always regarded this submarine as an imaginary enemy of this exercise."

……

He almost laughed when Vice Admiral Voljoul on the Jean Barr received this answer.

According to the report from the helicopter just now, the anti-submarine helicopter of the Huaxia Navy dropped a torpedo almost without hesitation after finding the target.

Even if it is uncharged, it is definitely not an attitude towards an "imaginary enemy".

Therefore, perhaps at the beginning, the Huaxia Navy was indeed not clear about the situation.

But then they must have been clear-minded.

But this kind of thing, see through it and don't say it.

When he was in a state of submarine, he went to the area where others were exercising to conduct reconnaissance, and when he was discovered, he could only consider himself unlucky.

It's a shame to ignore it, it's too late for the sea to cover the lid, and it's impossible to show it around.

And with this reply from the Chinese people, at least he doesn't have to take the blame after he goes back, and he can even let the above find trouble with the Japanese.

You know, this is a joint military exercise.

Being reconnoitred by a submarine within 20 nautical miles was a provocation not only to the Chinese Navy, but also to the French Navy.

"It's okay, it's not like our French navy hasn't fought the Japanese."

Someone next to him whispered.

"Huh? And this kind of thing? When? ”

Obviously, not everyone is very familiar with the history of their own army.

"In 1944, the battleship Richelieu shelled Sumatra, but unfortunately the Rangbar was not finished at that time, so it did not catch up with the ......"

"Speaking of which, our No. 1 ship is not called the Richelieu."

“……”

A quiet, but audible conversation made the atmosphere in the entire CIC a lot more relaxed.

In the final analysis, the French in this era were thinking of being on an equal footing with the United States, and naturally it was impossible for them to regard Japan as a real ally.

Anyway, he didn't suffer a loss in this matter, and after he went back, he would polish the report a little, and maybe it could become the capital for his future promotion.

Thinking of this, Lieutenant General Wojul's mood also improved a lot.

"Alright, let's just write the memo as they say......"
