Chapter 860 Immature Voice System
“Hey, what are you doing? It’s my turn!” James shouted from behind.
The guys just recovered from saying goodbye to the first plane, and quickly operated the second plane, dragging it until it took off, and aligned it with the runway. A few minutes later, the second plane also took off in front of their eyes.
“This is a real aircraft carrier-based aircraft. We need this kind of aircraft! I really hope these two can stay in our navy forever!” Rakul was extremely excited.
“There is no ablation on the deck. This aircraft is amazing!” Soracha was also very excited.
They only operated the J-31 for a period of time before returning it to land. There were many reasons for this, but the problem of deck ablation did exist. Now this aircraft has successfully solved their problem and made them very satisfied.
Two fighter planes formed a formation in the sky and rushed toward the sea area where the target ship was located.
In the distant sky, the early warning aircraft disappeared again after briefly getting the signal of two fighter planes taking off.
“No wonder the Navy asked us for help. Their E-2 should not be able to detect the takeoff and landing of fighter planes at all.”
“Yeah, the Navy’s early warning aircraft is a joke.”
They are relaxed again, and it is also very good to belittle the navy.
“There is a new maritime target heading towards the exercise area, and it is now one hundred kilometers away from the Siamese aircraft carrier formation!”
“It should be the warships of Asan Navy that went over to join in the fun. This thing is getting more and more interesting!”
“That’s right, the Siamese navy can’t find warships two hundred kilometers away from them. If it comes to war, they will be sunk to the bottom of the sea in minutes!”
For the U.S. Navy, four hundred kilometers is their first line of defense. Their fighter planes can easily detect targets four hundred kilometers away, and then call for fighter planes to intercept or attack. Therefore, if you want to attack the U.S. Navy, you have to A missile with a range of 500 kilometers.
However, other countries do not have this ability. The aircraft carrier formation of the Siamese Navy was even approached to a hundred kilometers! They didn't realize that at this distance, ordinary anti-ship missiles could attack them. Whether it was Harpoon, Flying Fish, or C802, the range was more than 100 kilometers. Uranus anti-ship missiles were also here. level.
At this time, if this bright spot on the radar screen is enlarged into a warship, you can see its chaotic deck superstructure, densely covered with various weapons, full of the style of old Maozi weapons from the 1960s and 1970s.
Four quadruple anti-ship missile launchers are located in the space on both sides of the front bridge, tilted outward at an angle of 30 degrees. Although they are not large in size, they are quite numerous.
Just by looking at this arrangement, you can deduce its model: Asan's most advanced Delhi-class destroyer!
Asan has always been seeking hegemony in the Indian Ocean and has been purchasing warships. After they purchased five Lao Maozi Type 61 destroyers, also known as the NATO codename Cassin class, they decided to take matters into their own hands. In 1977 At that time, their "project 15" shipbuilding plan officially began. The goal of this plan was to build the Asan domestic destroyer, which was later the Delhi class.
It is said that they have to make it themselves, but according to Asan's industrial level, it is just making a shell and installing various imported weapons on it. In fact, Asan has a special status and can purchase various weapons and equipment from the East and the West. , such a fusion is also a good choice.
However, the key point is that Ah San procrastinates in everything he does. This project started construction ten years later in 1987, but there were still twists and turns during the construction process, with some overshooting and some revisions to the design, and finally in 1997 It has just entered service. In an era when stealth is popular around the world, Ah San, a brand-new destroyer, is still full of the violent aesthetics of the old Maozi era, which makes people sigh.
Looking at the Aegis ships launched in the East, we can see how big the gap between the two sides is.
However, Ah San doesn’t think so.
On the bridge of the destroyer Delhi, Captain Jamwal looked at the ocean outside with great interest, with excitement on his face: "Did you see it? The ocean here belongs to us, and no one can challenge our ocean hegemony. , it is impossible for Pakistan, and it is even more impossible for Siam. Now, we will let them know who is the real overlord of the ocean!"
What does Siam have? A dilapidated aircraft carrier with a cost similar to that of a frigate, and a few outdated frigates, what else do they want to rely on to maintain the safety of the canal? Do not make jokes!
Jamwal was born in 1952 and is now in his forties. He is the golden age of a person, mature, steady and full of courage.
“Captain, why should we listen to the Americans?” asked the first mate on the side.
They want to show their existence, but they are independent. Why do they have to come running over with just a word from the Americans? This is so shameless!
"Why listen to the Americans? Of course it is to gain the support of the United States. When we detonated the mushroom bomb, we attracted opposition from all over the world, especially the United States, which actually imposed sanctions on us. Taking advantage of this opportunity, we can fight with the United States Re-establish a good relationship, and as long as this mission is completed well, we will hold joint military exercises here in the future. In this way, we will become allies again, and we can continue to purchase various weapons from the West."
Jamwar saw further. When he told these things, the first officer agreed: "Yes, it is indeed the case."
"In the past, when we were building the Delhi-class destroyers, it was enough to rely on Da Mao's weapons and equipment, but that's no longer possible. Many of Da Mao's things have fallen seriously behind, and they even have to purchase them from the East. Their newly built 22350 frigates are crucial. We have encountered difficulties with the radar. I heard that we spend huge sums of money to purchase from the East. We must not want things from the East. Only weapons from the West can lead the East. Whether it is radar or gas turbines, we need to purchase from the West. This is a rare opportunity. A good opportunity.”
“So, shall we simulate an attack now?”
“Of course, take off the helicopter now and prepare to provide relay guidance for our anti-ship missiles.”
When the Delhi-class destroyer was being developed, it was planned to install the famous 3M80 Sandfly anti-ship missile. However, I don’t know what Ah San was thinking. In the later stage, it was actually replaced with the 3M24 Uranus subsonic anti-ship missile. Of course, this kind of missile did not exist for long, and was soon replaced by the anti-ship missile jointly developed by Damao and Asan.
The 3M24 anti-ship missile is a strange one. Lao Maozi has always liked thick and long big guys, and he has always liked supersonic anti-ship missiles. However, since the United States has Harpoon, they must also have similar missiles, so The Uranus missile was developed in this way. Lao Maozi's own main warships were not very equipped, but they sold a lot to exports.
Although the 3M80 missile is not installed, if there is a bandstand over-the-horizon radar specifically designed to guide this missile, it can also meet the needs of guiding anti-ship missiles with a range of more than 100 kilometers, but they do not. They use Thin plate fire control radar. (Coming from Baidu, I really don’t know which radar this is. Looking at the introduction, it should be the downgraded single-sided roof radar on the top of the mast, right?)
This kind of radar does not have over-the-horizon attack capability, so if you want to launch a simulated attack on a surface target fifty kilometers away, you will need relay guidance. This will require the anti-submarine helicopter on the warship to make a temporary guest appearance.
Following his order, the helicopter at the rear of the ship began to prepare. For Ah San, these movements were always slow.
In the sky, two fighter planes roared towards their target.
“Caddy, please be careful not to turn on the radar in a hurry. We will first fly approximately 40 kilometers to the target, and then use the radar for a short search.”
Using radar will expose your target, so professional attack aircraft like the F117 do not have radar at all. Fighters definitely need radar, but it cannot be turned on at any time and will only be turned on when needed.
"If there is no problem with their target ship's route, then we can find the target visually without turning on the radar at all. In this way, we can use the TV I mounted to guide the missile." James is also a very brave person. As he spoke, he looked towards the vast sea.
The two fighters each carried different C704 missiles. Delano carried a conventional radar guidance model, and James carried a TV-guided model with a maximum range of only 35 kilometers. Therefore, the optical guidance system was also completely It was available. At this time, James hoped that his missile could hit the target ship and gain some limelight. Delano couldn't always get the limelight.
"Target found, direction of eleven o'clock!" He looked and actually found the target! It's actually on the left front of the route?
“Something’s wrong, there seems to be something wrong with this target ship. It’s not following the predetermined route.” Delano said.
“The Siamese must have remembered it wrong and are requesting an attack now!” James said while trying to turn on the weapon safety, but at this moment, a voice came: “The weapon has been unlocked.”
Voice operation!
At this time, the voice startled him.
“The target has been locked, do you want to launch an attack?” the voice assistant continued to ask.
"Attack?" James was just asking, but he didn't expect that as soon as he finished speaking, he felt the fuselage vibrate with a bang.
The weapons hatch opened and the anti-ship missile was ejected!
“The wild dog called the caddy, why did you launch the missile?” Delano was anxious.
From his perspective, he could clearly see the entire launch process: the bomb bay opened, a sky-blue missile came out of it, the red warhead was so conspicuous, and then, blazing flames emerged from its tail, and the missile started Speed forward!
Looking at the line of white smoke pulled out of the sky, James was completely dumbfounded: "No, it's not me, I didn't launch the missile."
“How did the missile fly out?”
“It flew out by itself, I swear, I didn’t push any buttons.”
Of course he didn't move, he just said a few words, and he still said it in a questioning tone. However, the voice operation in this era is still very imperfect. It is good to be able to understand the meaning of the command. It is impossible to listen. To understand the tone, James was just asking a question, but in the computer system, it turned into an affirmative order.
This is trouble.
Delano turned on the radar, and two clear bright spots appeared on the screen. One of the bright spots was the planned target ship in the originally planned sea area, and the other bright spot was the target of James' missile attack!
“Wild dog calls caddy, you hit the wrong target, activate the missile self-destruction program, activate the missile self-destruction program, be quick!”
Normally, no other ships are allowed to enter near the exercise area. Siam has announced the exercise area in advance, but accidents will always happen. If this missile sinks a ship that accidentally enters the sea area, the consequences will be disastrous. It will definitely cause an uproar internationally. Those conspirators will not say that it is the ship's fault, but will only blame the exercise party.
“Understood, start the self-destruct program!” James replied.
At this critical moment, the voice assistant cannot understand: "Excuse me, what are you talking about? I can't understand, you can try saying this..."
“Shut up!” James cursed while hurriedly pressing the buttons on the screen.
The missile is still flying forward.
In the sky, the people on the early warning aircraft were dumbfounded. What's going on?
The missile appeared out of thin air. A bright spot suddenly appeared on the sea, and then rushed towards the Asan Navy warship. Judging from the reflection echo of the target, it should be an ordinary small anti-ship missile. However, that It will also pose a threat to destroyers.
What is going on with the Siamese people? Want to sink Asan's destroyer? If they kill the Delhi, the situation will definitely escalate!
“Quick, we need to notify Asan Navy immediately that their warships are under attack!”
The radar officer was worried.
But the commander was not in a hurry: "It's too late at this time. As the strongest force in the region, how could the Asan Navy not even detect an anti-ship missile? There is no need to notify them."
It was indeed too late. After all, Ah San was not their true ally. There was no integrated data link. If they wanted to notify, they could only convey it through the official first. By the time it was slowly conveyed to the warship, the missile had already arrived.
However, his unhurried attitude obviously had other intentions: it is not too big a deal to watch the excitement. Under the current circumstances, if the tragedy of the Delhi being hit or even sunk really happened, then Asan and Siam started fighting. As a result, the canal would naturally not be built!
So, at this time, there is no need for them to remind Ah San, Ah San, please wish yourself a lot of luck!
As the first destroyer built by Ah San, the Delhi-class destroyer carries Ah San’s dream. During the development, various technical indicators were constantly changed. After all, they hope that the performance of this warship will be more advanced and the more weapons it will have. The better, even though the displacement is only five to six thousand tons, it still desires the performance of a 10,000-ton battleship.
Taking air defense as an example, this warship is equipped with two Shikili air defense missile launchers, one each on the platform behind the main gun and the helicopter hangar, with 48 bombs. The overall data is the same as that of the modern class, but , but it is equipped with a total of six MR-90 "nuts" ("front cowl") illumination radars on both sides of the foremast, both sides of the mizzen mast, and both sides of the forward bridge, used to guide anti-aircraft missiles!
Ah San is the only one in the world who does this, for fear of encountering a saturation attack and running out of target illumination radars. Even the modern class only has two installed, and the average American Aegis warship only has three target illumination radars. radar.
With so many radars installed, and a lot of the equipment coming from different countries, the Delhi-class destroyers have serious electromagnetic compatibility problems. For Asan, these are not a problem. Since there are electromagnetic compatibility problems, then they simply don’t use them.
The mission this time was originally a simulated attack mission, so only the "thin plate" radar on their warship was working, and the other radars were stationary.
An anti-ship missile flying over the sea at ultra-low altitude is difficult to detect, and Ah San was not prepared for this. They didn't know that a big killer weapon was already coming over the sea!
At this critical moment, the first mate on the bridge looked towards the sea, staring at a unique scene on the sea. His brain first shut down, and then he reacted and shouted loudly: "Attack alarm, there is an attack." An anti-ship missile is flying over!"
He couldn't see the anti-ship missiles, but he could see the white smoke dragged out from behind the anti-ship missiles. The white smoke was still extending towards their warships. This scene was just like Sherfield in the 1982 Falklands War. The number was attacked exactly the same!
Damn it, what’s going on?
Jamwal also looked over, and when he saw the flying missile, he immediately shouted loudly: "Quick, full left rudder!"
Now, the missile is flying from their one o'clock direction. If it goes up to it, it will definitely not be able to dodge it, but if it turns, it will be even more impossible to dodge, because after turning, they will put their own The side of the hull is exposed in front of the missile, and the radar reflection area is larger.
However, it is too late for them to activate the air defense system now, so they can only hope to avoid it in this way!
Boom!
At this moment, the flying missile exploded when it was still one kilometer away from them! A fireball appeared in front of them, making them feel like they were in a trance. What's going on? Why did it detonate in advance?
Pap, pah, pah, pah!
There was still a sound. After the explosion, some fragments continued to fly forward, and they still accelerated, hitting the destroyer Delhi, and colliding with the steel warship. The sound made made people feel frightened.
"ah…"
There were screams from behind.
“What’s going on? Is anyone hurt?”
“No, it fell into the sea. Our helicopter also fell into the sea.”
Before the helicopter takes off, do a full rudder operation. Isn’t this the person behind the pit?
