Chapter 297: The Reappearance of 30 Years Ago

Compared with the old aircraft of the Fa18, 40 years ago, the J-15 actually does not have an advantage, especially in single-air combat.

The fa18 Super Bumblebee uses an/apg-79 active phased array antenna radar, which is one level better than the j-15 using flat crack antennas, and has a considerable advantage in finding enemies.

In terms of mobility, the Super Hornet's air combat push ratio is about 1.07, j-15 is about 1.12, and j-15 has a weak advantage.

In terms of conventional maneuverability, Super Bumblebee is overloaded 7.5g normally and overload is 10g maximum; J-15 is overloaded 8g normal and overload is 9g maximum, transsonic stage is overloaded 6.5g maximum, supersonic stage is overloaded 7g maximum, and Super Bumblebee also has the advantage.

In terms of agility, Super Hornet further relaxes its static stability based on Bumblebee, at least comparable to J-15.

So overall, if it is on the real battlefield, even if fa18 cannot form an overwhelming advantage for j-15, at least it can get a beautiful number in terms of exchange ratio.

So it is precisely because of this performance difference that the USS Roosevelt aircraft carrier has not been fully refueled with the F-35 because for them, the Fa18 is actually enough.

At this time, the two fa18s that were constantly circulating over the Fleet No. 002 also fully demonstrated their performance advantages. When facing the head-end pursuit of the j-15, they calmly started to increase the force. Then a cobra maneuvered and directly brought the two j-15s to the front and began to pursue the j-15s in reverse.

The pilots of j-15 have been prepared for this. They knew very well that this was just an air competition in which both sides had a tacit understanding, so they did not rush to get rid of each other. Instead, they dived down with extremely superb technology, and then made several large-angle steering at ultra-low altitudes. They relied on their own operating technology to make up for the defects of maneuverability and regained their active position.

Seeing this scene, even the pilots on Fa18 couldn't help but give them a thumbs up in the interlaced moment.

Then, the offense and defense changed positions again. The fa18 relied on its powerful engine to climb vertically. After throwing the j-15 apart for a while, it decisively collected the oil. After completing the fallen leaves, it returned to the back of the j-15 again.

The four fighter jets repeatedly chased and fought in the not-so-high air. The j-15 with the secondary fuel tank was gradually at a disadvantage. When the pilot began to take risks in high-difficulty maneuvers, the carrier-based aircraft commander on the aircraft carrier finally gave them the order to stop the pursuit.

And the two fa18s also consciously increased their height and left the market.

Of course it is not because of fear, but because of two reasons.

First, they did not want such a flight performance that was originally just a routine operation to become out of control due to the crash of the J-15; second, their fuel was almost consumed to the return cordon during multiple afterburner maneuvers.

As the figures of the two aircraft gradually faded away, the j-15 also landed on the aircraft carrier deck one after another.

The pilots who got off the plane looked a little embarrassed. In their opinion, they were embarrassing the naval aviation forces under the witness of the entire fleet.

The carrier-based aircraft commander saw their faces, waved them over with some amusement, and asked:

"What's wrong? Who is showing this bad face? If you don't agree? If you don't agree, practice hard! The plane is not as good as others, but the technology is not as good as others?"

"I can compare! The question is, wasn't your order just now not allowed to continue chasing?"

One of the pilots said with some dissatisfaction.

"I don't allow chasing? Do you know what you want to do? Do cobra maneuvering at a very low altitude. Is this what J-15 can do? Are you not afraid of falling the plane?"

"I'm not afraid! I'm very confident in my skills!"

The commander smiled and shook his head, patted the pilot's shoulder and said:

"I know you have confidence, but sometimes you have to learn to judge the situation. This is just a regular action of rejecting and expulsion. There is no need to sacrifice your life. This will not be good for you, for us, or for the entire country, do you understand?"

"...I understand, but I just don't accept it. Didn't they just rely on the better plane to show off their power? The J-20 under our deck has not taken off yet."

"......If J-20 takes off, this matter will not end. Didn't you see that they didn't even have any weapons? They just came to disgust you. Do you have to send the handle to their hands? Okay, go down and rest."

Several pilots left the deck with a sigh, and the commander who stayed there was actually not a good look after turning around.

The opponent's provocative movements were too obvious. Although we had not done anything to drive the J-20 to the opponent's aircraft carrier to open the field at a low altitude, we never once showed off our skills as blatantly as they did.

The general process is actually to shout for each other, then fly around a few times and leave each other, landing where you should land, returning where you should return, and even the content of the shouting is repeated hundreds of times, and each can recite it.

But today's game is obviously a little different.

He shook his head silently, turned around and walked towards the command room, intending to report his judgment to the fleet commander-in-chief and increase his alert level to prevent the other party's next harassment.

.........

And on the other side, after two Super Hornets landed, they were greeted with huge cheers.

Everyone treated them as heroes, and they themselves showed off their past while playing the Chinese fighter jets. The commander-in-chief of the fleet in the distance looked at this scene with an unfathomable smile on his face.

This is exactly what he wants.

He would not do any concise and test each other. All he wanted was to use the other party's fleet as the background, so that the pilot who was most brave and had the most courageous to choose would perform a gorgeous performance to enhance the morale of his team.

And now, his goal has obviously been achieved.

But, for him, that was not enough.

He has always believed in one principle, that is, if you want to do something, it is best to do it at once, otherwise giving up halfway may have a favorable impact in the short term, but the backlash caused by the final decline will be even more serious.

So, he planned to add another fire to this action.

The commander-in-chief picked up the microphone and issued a few orders briefly. Then, several big fish originally hidden on the bottom of the sea quietly moved forward, and the passive sonar started work, and began to search the waters ahead.

According to his understanding of China, there is definitely more than one big fish hidden underwater in the other side's fleet. If the side can discover the other side's position in advance and then pass this position to the other side's fleet command through some means, then this maritime confrontation will be completely won.

The advantages of air and underwater are the advantages that determine the final direction of a maritime battle.

Simulating hunting and sinking the other party's submarine is actually not the first time we have done this. The most typical case is actually the operation in 1994.

At that time, after discovering the traces of the opponent's submarine, the aircraft carrier formation surrounded it for a full 72 hours. During these 72 hours, the opponent's fighter jets took off several times, but due to insufficient range, they failed to pose a threat to their anti-submarine helicopters.

In that operation, our side sank the backward, noise-free and slow-speed submarine 7 times, forcing the other side to dive in an emergency and even ask for help through long-wave communication. Finally, after Su-27, who had come to support, had to act as a life-threatening attitude, he retreated leisurely.

It has been 30 years since then, and the other party’s submarine technology has made great progress, but the same is true for its own anti-submarine technology.

In such a situation where the two armies confront each other, will our side still have a chance to reappear the hunting at that time?

He really wants to give it a try.

Half an hour later, a reply came from the phone.

"Our submarine has already left, and no location of the other submarine has been found."

"Continue searching, remember, don't get too close. If you are alone, then it's not them who are sunk by the simulation, but you!"

"I understand, it's still at a safe distance."

The commander-in-chief put down the telephone and looked up at the endless sea in front of him. He knew that under this seemingly calm sea, two forces were in a silent confrontation.

The outcome of this confrontation will determine the outcome of this maritime confrontation.

Time is passing by minute by minute. When he is about to lose patience, several highlights suddenly appear on the large screen of the data link system.

That is the detection result of the sonar system.

"Discover them!"

This is the first idea of ​​the commander-in-chief.

However, the next second, his expression suddenly changed.

Something is wrong.

The highlights are not around the opponent's aircraft carrier battle group, but... around your own fleet!

His hair suddenly stood up and rushed to the screen to see what was going on, but the highlights suddenly disappeared.

This is not right.

This is not the result of our passive sonar detection, but the other party activated the active sonar under his nose!

They are provoking.

From the other side's formation to the one side's formation, according to the speed of the submarine, even if the carrier-based aircraft of both sides return, they will immediately send out submarines when they return. Until now, they can just reach the position displayed by the sonar just now.

This means that while he eliminated the submarine, the other party also sent out the submarine.

And at a certain moment, the two submarine formations almost passed by!

But we did not detect any sonar signals.

A chill surged in his heart, and the commander-in-chief immediately ordered all anti-submarine helicopters to be lifted out and all the sonars were released into the water. He no longer cared about concealing - since his position had been exposed, what else could be concealed?

This process only took him more than ten minutes, but in these ten minutes, when the active sonar began to scan, he was shocked to find that the submarines that had originally surrounded the fleet had all started to return and had sailed nearly 15 nautical miles!

This means that the speed of the opponent's submarine has reached nearly 60 knots.

This is an extremely terrifying fact.

The noise was so small that it was not discovered even when passing by, and the speed reached 60 knots. If the underwater was a nuclear submarine......

He suddenly thought of the sulfur lithium battery that had caused huge waves before.

Everything was connected, and in the original strategic analysis, they did consider this possible direction.

That is, the other side's submarine force is likely to undergo comprehensive electrical system transformation for the entire ship, especially the full electric drive transformation after the battery is implemented.

But he never expected that such a transformation would increase the performance of the submarine to this level.

At this moment, the other party was unscrupulously showing their achievements in front of his side, just like he was showing off his f18 in front of the other side just now.

This only means one thing:

These submarines underwater may soon enter a renewal period.

He looked at the highlights on the screen in hunchedly and subconsciously wanted to order the carrier-based aircraft to perform tracking, but the next second, his idea was completely disbanded.

According to the radar, two aircraft were swimming over the sky of our formation.

It is obvious that it had already broken into its own air defense area, but it was only at this moment that the J-20 of Longbo lens was unfolded.

The commander-in-chief's hand trembled slightly. After a long silence, he issued an order to withdraw all combat units.

And just like in response to his orders, the two J-20s disappeared from the radar screen again.

What disappeared then was the sonar signal.

The fish hidden deep underwater, under the protection of their exclusive falcons, sailed back to the sea area they controlled.

At this moment, the commander-in-chief suddenly felt that everything he had done before had become a joke.

He thought he was the protagonist of this offensive and defensive confrontation, but the facts told him that he was just an unconscious supporting role.

He thought the opponent's defense could be easily broken through, but that was just a trap of intentional cooperation.

He thought his formation was impeccable, but in the scene just now, even his flagship aircraft carrier had probably been sunk countless times by simulation.

The hunting from 30 years ago has indeed reappeared.
