Chapter 1105 Peerless Sea Battle 3 Cold Cannon!
Ultra-long-range electromagnetic guns can also be used very accurately, the key is the strong overall system support!
The electromagnetic gun technology in Zhu Bin's hand, starting from the 280mm electromagnetic reconnection gun set up on Liugong Island four years ago, has continuously tested various methods, various range strike modes, thousands of data collection, and several gun tubes were scrapped, from the maximum firing height beyond the atmosphere, to the precise aiming along the uniform trajectory along the earth curve, to the special warheads integrating ultra-high-speed missile technology, and are improved again and again, constantly approaching the ancient data of the interstellar era.
The warhead fired by the rail gun is more stable than the shells with the body gun as the base. During the entire launch process, the tight electromagnetic shield formed by the warhead itself is like a supercavitation torpedo. The warhead always stays in a relatively stable environment to ensure maximum stability of the ballistics.
In this way, the air conditioning is rushed out of the atmosphere, the speed remains maximum and the ballistic remains maximum. Until the reentry, the aerodynamic shape designed after precise calculation gradually changes with the atmospheric environment where the target is located, or the initiation is conducted at a high angle to achieve maximum kinetic energy attack; furthermore, as it is now, a brief attack is made against a group of dense formations!
Across five hundred nautical miles, aiming at targets that are also maneuvering and swaying on the warship. Don’t expect accuracy like an anti-ship missile. A brief strike is the best way.
The warhead with a flat posture is basically a horizontal warhead, along the curve of the earth, at a height of more than ten meters above the waves, and the end of the warhead is still greater than Mach 5. The sharp head with super high hardness passes through the target group like a bowling ball. There will always be an unlucky guy who will encounter it.
The side armor of a P-class pocket battleship was penetrated through hard, and the amazing kinetic energy gathered on an extremely small pointed cone. The ultra-high pressure that Krupp armored steel could not withstand also shattered the structure. The slender warhead dragged an amazing rotating air-burst tail and penetrated into the core compartment. Under the continuous impact of hundreds of kilograms of ultra-high-strength alloy, the stress shattered the bullet body, forming hundreds of super-high-speed shrapnel of different sizes, which were horn-shaped jet damage!
The power of this jet destruction is really amazing! Even without the addition of explosives, only impacting with kinetic energy, it blasted countless holes in all directions of the cabin!
The broken compartment fragments are mixed in it to produce chain damage. Those who impact the passage can fly out more than ten meters. Most of them penetrate more compartments, rushing upwards and out of the deck, downwards can penetrate the bottom compartment, destroying the diesel engine of the power compartment, and poking countless holes into the oil compartment!
The attack ship, which was more than 20,000 tons, seemed to be beaten up by a sledgehammer with a trembling body. Its body trembled violently and made a deafening rumbling sound. Countless debris spewed out of the deck under the turret. The worker was caught off guard and was shot and killed dozens of casualties!
The other warhead was not far apart and penetrated into the base of the bridge of the Cedritz heavy cruiser. The huge kinetic energy directly penetrated the thick steel structure, leaving the largest part of the kinetic energy at the entrance, and the result was that the whole piece collapsed in, forming a hole as thick as a water tank.
After several armored compartments were penetrated continuously, the bullet body collapsed and caused omnidirectional damage. The damage was blasted from all directions almost turned the bridge into tofu. Finally, a largest piece of fragment rushed out from the other side, and the other fragments formed an outlet with a diameter of five meters. With a rumbling sound, a wall-like damage was broken, forming a cavity that was transparent on the left and right, with a messy inside!
The effect is like the cavity effect formed by a rifle bullet that has been expanded by tens of millions of times, but this is too big!
Two shots aimed for a long time, calibrated the shooting, used the warship's own intelligent fire control radar, short-range early warning aircraft, sky satellite, close-to-enemy stealth fighter laser aimed, drone side guidance, and multiple data links assisted. Finally, it completed a thousand miles away and a beheading strike!
A strong smoke suddenly emerged from the two German warships and transmitted to the flagship in real time. Zhu Bin nodded repeatedly when he saw it. It was not bad, and it did not embarrass me!
Chen Shaokuan and a group of big guys were completely stunned! What's the situation? Cannonballs can hit more than a thousand miles and hit a warship accurately? They can also hit such a big guy with the right way. Is there still a way out!
Zhu Bin made some incredible things every now and then, which shocked them a little numb. But now, the concept of "cannon" can actually be as good as missiles, which is really a bit inconsistent! The shells are not missiles, with low cost and fast firing speed, and they cannot be intercepted. If you can't avoid them, how can you fight this battle?
Zhu Bin could not explain in detail to them that the entire formation of enemy ships had been analyzed and simulated by the intelligent unit under long-term monitoring to simulate a mathematical probability model, which accurately measured the strike time to milliseconds, and what posture, formation, and from which angle the incident has the maximum probability to hit a target, are conclusions that can only be drawn after massive calculations. It is not the kind of volley of turrets that are dozens of kilometers away, relying on a pitiful hit rate, and then not sinking a warship for more than ten consecutive shots.
Zhu Bin decisively could not tolerate that long, monotonous, boring bombardment was too untechnical. If he wanted to do it, it would be shocking and absolutely different!
While we were cheering and celebrating and preparing for a second blow, the Germans were completely confused!
Admiral Lukins was still busy issuing instructions, trying to get the fleet on both wings to move closer to the middle, restore the distance and direction, and relative angles to ensure that when taking on the enemy, he can attack according to the predetermined strategy. Suddenly, a small P-class battleship (attack ship) not far away made a sound, and a large ball of rolling smoke rose up on the deck, and that posture seemed to explode the boiler!
But it shouldn't be! Those warships use diesel engines. There is no boiler explosion, and diesel will not be ignited easily. The probability of a fire is very low. Could it be that something is wrong with the ammunition depot?
Then something suddenly flashed in his mind, and he rushed to the side of the porthole, grabbed the telescope and watched carefully. Then he saw a large black hole behind the bow of the warship jumping from the waves, which was shockingly exposed!
Lukins seemed to be punched in his heart, and his eyes were filled with stars, and he screamed strangely: "Blasting!?"
He had seen such wounds! The German Navy, who had obtained some information from the Japanese and US Navy, had seen more than once the hulls bombarded by electromagnetic shells. The destructive holes that penetrated like bullets were so weird. It was unforgettable at first sight!
But this time, the hole he saw was at least five times larger than before! The previous 127mm re-engagement shells could blow the Yamato-level into a hole thick in the washbasin. The one in front of him was as thick as a water tank! It means that the caliber of the shell was much larger! And the explosion was obviously not a warhead load, otherwise, even if a shell had a number of 203mm grenades, a dazzling fireball could be raised from it!
I didn't understand, but Lukins didn't dare to neglect, turned his head and shouted: "The entire fleet will immediately change direction and disperse! Disperse all!"
A harsh attack warning spread throughout the formation in a few seconds, and all ships, like frightened fish, turned rudders in different directions, colliding with the waves, causing a loud rumbling sound!
Immediately afterwards, another heavy cruiser suffered a severe blow, and the broken crack from the side could not hold on to the twisted and distorted bridge, which made General Lukins' mouth dry and his blood vessels almost exploded!
Terrible blow! Weird killing! It was completely different from the battle he imagined. It happened suddenly!
"Where is the enemy?! Can anyone tell me where the damn Chinese warships launched the shelling?! How could they be so accurate that they could still cause such destruction!"
In a flash of thought, countless questions rushed into my mind, but none of them could be returned.
According to the Americans, enemy ships can use anti-ship missiles to attack 200 kilometers away and can bombard them with ship guns 100 kilometers away, but no matter which one is different from what you see! His experience is completely useless!
Almost subconsciously, General Lukins chose to evade! This is almost a style that the German Navy has become unchanged. It is best not to fight face-to-face with the enemy as much as possible. However, this time, the attack became them!
Mountbatten couldn't stand it anymore, and his eyes swept coldly over the P-class warships that were rolling thick smoke from not far away. He raised his voice and said, "General! I suggest you better let all warships release smoke immediately, at least not let them easily see the specific model and location of each warship!"
"What?! What are you kidding! Don't you know that the thick smoke is equivalent to marking the other party where we are? What's more, it's late at night! As long as the lights are controlled, there is no need for that!"
Lukins thought Mountbatten's suggestion was ridiculous. What a joke, is it useful to set smoke at night?
Mountbatten sighed silently. He really looked down on these Germans. Although he had to admit that the German army was indeed awesome, the navy, just talking about the strategy of facing the enemy and making quick decisions, it was not a little bit worse!
Shaking his head, Mountbatten still faithfully traveled his own duties, reminding him: "We must assume that the enemy has a way to pay attention to the movements of our entire fleet nearby at any time, and even grasp the location of each of our warships, and provide accurate coordinates to the warships behind at any time. Even if the light control is useless, the chimney of each warship is enough for them to capture clear signals! Only by releasing smoke, forming similar high-temperature signals, and using thick fog to interfere with infrared detection is the best way. In addition, I suggest increasing the anti-submarine force, so that all anti-submarine ships can actively drive downwards to the maximum sonar power, preventing enemy submarines from being there!"
Lukins seemed to have heard a huge joke, and even criticized with some anger: "This is how you British fight? I understand why such a crushing defeat occurred continuously! Sir, you must know that the electromagnetic environment is now chaotic and there is no signal to transmit! Besides, monitor our formation nearby? Do you think our night reconnaissance plane is a decoration? There are also submarines, do you know how many submarines are operating nearby? Even at a depth of 200 meters, they are strictly blocked by us!"
The Germans are confident that their submarines are the best in the world. Submarines from all over the world are all stolen technology or counterfeit products from Germany. Apart from U-boats, he doesn't know who else can dive deeper than 250 meters. Just relying on their garbage metallurgical technology? It's far away!
Mountbatten sighed helplessly again. The Germans are not only old-fashioned, but also overly self-righteous! Yes, the remnants and defeated generals they saw in various countries were indeed worse, but it does not mean that the Chinese were not inferior! Failure is no longer a tactical problem, it is not a crime of war!
Lukins' rough attitude made Mountbatten helpless and could only pray secretly. These damn guys should not fail too quickly, and the shells on the opposite side should not fall on their heads first. That would be too unlucky!
The stubborn Germans couldn't listen to the advice of the arrogant British. The entire formation maneuvered in disorder on one side, and the night reconnaissance aircraft sent out increased their search efforts, especially the 100-kilometer circular front, but the result was that no bird feather was found.
Just when Lukins thought it was just an unexpected destruction, two more pure kinetic energy strike the warhead and suddenly came!
There was no sign of warning, and there was no sound boom that broke through the air, no fire, and no traces were seen at night. Only the loud noise that broke out when the warship was hit. The trembling of the ship that made everyone fall, let them understand that the disaster was coming!
This time, two more warships were destroyed! The warship with a displacement of less than 10,000 tons gave the terrible warhead a slightly larger injection angle, penetrated from the deck to the bottom pole, and destroyed the horizontally damaged and destroyed the shattering blow. The keel was like a sieve, and it was paralyzed on the spot, and it was even violently filled from the bottom!
General Lukins was so angry that his cheeks were twisted! He cursed all the investigation units crazily, but no one could tell him where the blow came from!
From the periphery of the fleet to the 300-kilometer circular area, the night reconnaissance planes almost collided with each other. The lowest one rushed to the water surface, and the highest one almost pulled the fuselage apart. They tried hard to climb to a height of nearly 10,000 meters, but nothing was found!
It's so crazy!
Lukins didn't understand that this blow must have been a shelling, so why can't the flash of fire be found? On the dark night, the fire of the muzzle can be seen thirty kilometers away, but obviously, the plane hovering in the sky did not see anything!
The first two hit warships also sent preliminary damage reports with lights. There were no explosives, like broken armor-piercing bombs, which hit the hull for a moment, but the damage caused was too amazing. Experienced structural engineers didn't know how to strike to cause such a result!
Lukins finally realized that something was wrong! His rigorous habit forced him to remember the British's suggestions again, but he was so proud that he couldn't help but ask Mountbatten for a moment, and his face turned dark and froze.
Fortunately, the staff officer who was following him was not stupid. When he saw that there was nothing else to do, he asked for instructions in a low voice and immediately followed Mountbatten's advice.
Within a few minutes, all the warships began to release smoke and switched positions and changed directions in extremely dangerous maneuvering methods, from the original core of the two columns to the circular arrays spreading to the sides. The battleships slowed down and shrank backwards, and the two wings flew forward and inwards. The fastest cruiser and destroyer interlaced to form several continuous defenses--this is to prevent the shells that continued to be bombarded by low trajectories from hitting the main ship!
It's really scary that the news came! The armor of the P-class ship had caught up with the battleship, but was easily penetrated, which means that even the Bismarck is not absolutely safe!
The rolling smoke mixed with strong infrared signals from rockets fired from all directions stirred the German formations under infrared detection, as if there were thousands of targets at once. The dazzling high-altitude explosion light was not enough to illuminate the sea, but it could blind the high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft. This opposite tactic is unexpectedly useful.
The screen became blurred, and Zhu Bin couldn't help but say in surprise: "Yes, the German Navy can perform like this? No, someone should have given them an idea! But wanting to use such a simple means to avoid it? It's too naive!"
Zhu Bin really looked at how bad the German navy was. Even if he had a solution, he was just a British man who came up with the idea, he imagined his opponent too simply!
The "Thunder Dragon" fighter jet quietly hung over the German fleet completely ignored the reconnaissance planes passing by, and ignored the anti-aircraft shells that were bombarded from the sea, and always shone clusters of lasers straight on the ships on the sea. Even if there is thick smoke interference, it is not natural thick clouds and mist after all, it is just weakened and far from reaching the level of complete elimination.
Just over a dozen minutes later, the German warship's first change of array began to appear in scale. When the signal was transmitted back, the intelligent system immediately predicted multiple possible postures. Zhu Bin was not in a hurry. When the first result with a probability of more than 50% came out, he immediately launched the third bombardment.
Boom! Bang!
Two electromagnetic gun armor-piercing bombs were used to gather fire in parallel to attack a target, and two holes were created in front and back, breaking into three sections!
Lukins is so furious! Isn't it okay if I'm like this? What's going on?
Mountbatten shrugged helplessly and spread his hands, he couldn't answer. Not only him, but no one could answer the Japanese, Americans, the million-ton ships and hundreds of thousands of navys that had fallen under the guns of the Chinese! The enemy is at this level of unpredictable. When they go to war with them, they must be mentally prepared to go to hell!
Chapter completed!
