Extraordinary Sailing (Extraordinary Voyage) - Chapter 935
beep-!
A fleet of three steel battleships, one large, two small, split the waves and sailed majesticly across the high seas of the Eritrean Sea, leaving only three long white wakes on the sea.
but.
In the fleet, the two small companion warships “Pangolin” and “Warthog” with the flag of the Principality are not the main naval forces [battleship], but two…[fast cruisers].
[Specifications] Length of the entire ship: 169 meters; width: 16.9 meters; draft: 5.8 meters; standard displacement: 7430 tons.
[Armour]: Main guns: 4 double-mounted double-caliber artillery; secondary guns: 4 single-mounted double-caliber artillery; anti-aircraft guns: 3 quadruple-mounted 12.7 mm 62 double-caliber anti-aircraft guns; torpedo: 2 quadruples 533mm torpedo launch tube is combined.
[Speed]: 29 knots.
Just as the [International Democratic League] has already successfully launched its own [full-heavy artillery battleship], [Monarch’s Shield] will of course not let its naval strategic system appear blank.
These [Fast Cruisers] are actually the roles of Tier 5 and Tier 6 ships in the past sailing era.
In particular, the tulip, which has the largest colony in the world, requires a large number of cruisers to maintain the security of the colony.
Even if they can’t be used as the main battleship of the final word, they can be used to detect the enemy’s situation; launch a destructive battle; protect the battleship fleet to go to the open sea; or use the wolves tactics to besiege the enemy’s large warships.
As for the flagship and pilot ship in the fleet, there is no doubt that it is the [All-Heavy Artillery Battleship·Super Intrepid Class·Prince].
Ship length: 177.8 meters; ship width: 29 meters; draft: 8.7 meters; full load displacement: 28,900 tons.
No matter from the comparison of that parameter, it is the most powerful battleship among all the civilizations in the world today, and there is no one.
It is also the flagship of the Black Sea Fleet among the three major naval fleets of the Principality of Galliot, the Black Sea Fleet, the Broken Star Sea Fleet, and the Golden Sea Fleet, and a powerful barrier guarding the capital.
However, at this time, the atmosphere in the very luxuriously decorated captain’s room of this warship is not very harmonious.
The female officer with a sleek posture and a straight military uniform with her feet upturned, and seemed to be sitting on the captain’s chair very presumptuously, looking at the captain, who was standing with low eyebrows and hands down in front of you, with a smile.
“Elante, do you know where I am wrong?”
The latter is full of grievances, where is the slightest appearance of a lieutenant admiral:
“My dear, wronged!”
“Wrong? That Miss Negrito, who was in charge of reception, was about to get into your arms during the dance. I remember it was Fatima Sana, or a high-caste lady from a priest’s family. ?”
The “Peacock Islands” is worthy of being the “Museum of Race and Belief” for the entire human world. Although Miss Fatima is still a Negrito, she was born in the upper class.
In other words, she belongs to a mixture of alien Neimansters and Negritos. She has long chestnut hair, high nose and deep eyes, and her skin is also a very healthy wheat color.
What is even more rare is that although she is only 18 years old, she has already obtained a bachelor’s degree from the Falettis Tulip Art Institute, and she graduated first in the same period. She is close friends with many elite ladies in the league.
The end is a peerless beauty who wants good looks and connotation.
“How can you taint someone’s innocence out of thin air? It’s not because you are inconvenient to attend the farewell ball, so you can’t let me dance with a man, right?”
Elante looked up at his wife’s slightly bulging belly, and said in his heart: You think too much of me, even if I have that heart, how can I have the courage?
“Hmph, let my brother beat you when I get home!”
Hearing that, the general who doesn’t make sense can only respond with a wry smile, although he is very self-knowing, a hundred of himself can’t beat the eldest brother who is [Concrete Truth].
But at any rate, he is almost forty years old. In any case, it is difficult for him to say “let my brother beat your brother” such unspeakable words to his wife.
Dare to fight against Irina’s “brutal” rule?
Although it does not seem to be very pregnant, the limbs are slender and graceful, in fact, it is almost three months of pregnancy.
Now this is a treasure, if you make her angry, I’m afraid the whole family will unite to kill herself.
At that time, I am afraid that it will not immediately become two [demi-god] mixed doubles! Can’t afford to offend, can’t afford to offend.
At this moment.
Boom! Boom! Boom! …
With a rapid knock on the door, a voice sounded like a natural sound in Elantra’s ears:
“Report to the captain, sonar feedback, something unknown is following us underwater!”
call out!
Elantra rushed out in one stride.
Now that there was a military situation, Irina, who was the deputy captain, was not confused, and rushed into the bridge after that.
Because the sonar and radar squads are under the control of the radar department, the radar commander reports the enemy’s situation to the two captains:
“Report to the captain that the unknown object has power, and the speed is ten knots. It was captured by passive sonar five minutes ago. The current distance to us is one kilometer.
It is speculated that it was near our route in advance, and the noise made after starting to move was only noticed by us. ”
[Sonar] itself is a technology for navigation and ranging through electroacoustic conversion and information processing. The key point is not ultrasound, but electroacoustic conversion and information processing.
This is a problem that has only been solved by [Electrical Engineers] in recent years, and it is quite different from the sonar that can be used on the [Crown of Miracle] with the help of the ship spirit “Mei”.
The new-style sonar equipped on the [Prince Prince] has a passive detection range of about 20 kilometers and an active detection range of about 50 kilometers.
Although the passive sonar, which is turned on all day, does not need to actively emit ultrasonic waves, it will not expose its own existence due to the use of sonar.
But the performance is much worse than that of active sonar, especially if the noise of the measured target is close to or even less than the background noise of the ocean, it is basically no different from a blind man.
This is also the basis for the chief radar to make the above judgment.
“Order, the Warthog approach to reconnaissance and grant Captain Mandel the authority to fire first!”
When one of the two cruisers slowly left the team and propelled itself.
One kilometer to their side, in the same direction, an inconspicuous rod suddenly shrank underwater.
“Sir, the noise of the diesel engine has exposed us, do you want to launch an attack now?”
“It would be great if the [Magnetite] can be miniaturized. A highly silent submarine will not be so easy to spot at all.”
The captain sighed with emotion, and then ordered:
“Command: Open the sealed hatch in front of the torpedo tube No. 1 and fill it with sea water.”
【Palmud Federal Submarine·Ghost Class·Sea Snail】
[Specifications]: The shell diameter is 5.3 meters; the length is 36 meters; the surface displacement is 493 tons; the maximum surface speed is 14 knots, the underwater speed is only 10 knots, the maximum diving depth is 60 meters, and the crew is 20 people.
[Armed]: 50mm and 37mm caliber guns each; 6 450mm torpedo tubes.
Limited by the current level of technology, the [Ghost Class] built by the Federation usually sails on the surface, and its combat weapons are torpedoes, mines, and artillery.
Because the current torpedoes are all direct-going torpedoes with short range and insufficient reliability, submarines are equipped with artillery. If they encounter weak merchant ships, they can chase and fire artillery on the surface.
As for the route to the Principality’s fleet to provoke this time, it was not a whim.
[International League for Democracy] After all, different from monarchy countries, as the monarch, Aiwen can decide many things in one word, and there is no need to consider costs and balance the interests of all parties.
Especially in terms of technical routes, no one can influence Aiwen’s will.
But in a “democratic country”, the weapons research and development department, the navy, members of Congress, the funder behind the “Eye of Wealth”… each has its own interests.
They also have their own ideas about the future development route of the Navy. No matter how rich, it is impossible to have all the technical routes.
To be honest, the arms race that can’t produce any benefits has been going on for many years, and it’s time to show some achievements to the big masters in the Congress and the fathers of the sponsors.
Whether you can get the result or not, you can cheat only if there is friction… Well, it’s to apply for more funds!
of course. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
[Sea Snail] The first-line combatants of the entire boat dare to reinforce the confidence of the world’s strongest battleship.
It is that they firmly believe that for now, this powerful weapon and equipment that can stay underwater for a long time is almost invincible.
And they are not sea monsters, [Song of the Sea-Monster] doesn’t work for them at all.
In this actual combat, what else can excite the navy than challenging the world’s strongest battleship? The highest medal of the Federal Army, the “Golden Palme Medal”, is beckoning to them!
“Dive down, get out of the periscope depth!”
For this submarine, the periscope depth is seven meters.
“Target the closest cruiser, torpedo tube No. 1, launch!”
Whoosh—!
A white line flew out against the surface of the water.
The torpedo is 2 meters in length, 220 kg in weight, 40 kg in charge, 30 knots in speed, and 4 km in range.
The first weapon expert and genius engineer Levitt (mortal) invented the combustion chamber. The gas produced by the combustion of high-pressure air and fuel was sent into the cylinder to drive the piston, making the world’s first [thermal power torpedo] (also known as steam gas). torpedo).
But this fish can only be used to attack surface ships.
Therefore, when a submarine attacks an enemy ship, it must float to a distance of 3-15 meters from the surface before launching torpedoes.
In the afternoon, the sun on the equator was very bright. Although the enemy’s true face has not yet been seen, the “Warthog” watchpoint has been the first to discover the inexplicable torpedo tail.
Captain Mandel, who thought it was some kind of sea monster, had prepared [Song of the Sea Monster], was shocked:
“Left full rudder, avoid—!”
At the same time, two more murderous white water lines emerged from the sea one after another, and collectively rushed towards the [Super Intrepid Grade·Prince] not far away.
