Chapter 55: A Great Victory

When the Brahmos anti-ship missile rushed into high altitude vertically, it left a very bright trajectory in the night sky.

Captain Yan Yunxiang, who had just completed the mission of guiding the anti-ship missile attack, witnessed this "spectacular scene" with his own eyes. He did not dare to hesitate at all and immediately issued an alarm.

Almost at the same time, pilots of the other five ka-27 helicopters also issued an alarm.

The reaction speed of the "KJV 2000" was not slow at all. The Brahmos anti-ship missile had just climbed to a height of 1,500 meters and was still rising, and was discovered by the phased array radar on the early warning aircraft.

At 10:57 at night, the radar of "KJV 2000" locked twelve targets and automatically switched to tracking mode.

Tactical intelligence was transmitted simultaneously to two air defense destroyers in the Special Mixed Fleet, and then forwarded to four other destroyers and six frigates through tactical data links.

When the air defense alarm sounded, Major General Lin Xiaolei became nervous.

It is absolutely impossible to underestimate the Brahmos anti-ship missile that weighs 3,000 kilograms, has a flight speed of more than 2.5 times the speed of sound, is equipped with a warhead of 300 kilograms, and can attack warships at an altitude of 8 to 10 meters. Although Lin Xiaolei does not think that Brahmos is more advanced than the C-603 of the Republic Navy, he has to admit that the twelve Brahmos posed a huge threat to the Special Mixed Fleet.

At 10:59 at night, the second generation of "China Aegis" phased array radar equipped by the "Chengdu" and "Chongqing" air defense destroyers discovered twelve "Bramos" anti-ship missiles flying at an altitude of 15,000 meters 200 kilometers away. When the distance was shortened to 180 kilometers, the radar automatically turned to a tracking state.

At about 11 o'clock at night, two air defense destroyers launched twenty-four "Haihongqi 91" regional air defense missiles at a speed of one per second.

For warships, the safer it is to destroy incoming anti-ship missiles at the farther distance.

The maximum range of the "Haihongqi 91" regional air defense missile is 120 kilometers and the maximum height is 25,000 meters. When intercepting anti-ship missiles in a two-to-one manner, the probability of damage is between 75% and 95%. In previous ground exercises, the probability of interception between two "Haihongqi 91" and one C-603 ground is only 70%. If the performance of "Bramos" and C-603 ground is similar, then the probability of interception at this time will not exceed 75%.

The result was almost the same. Twenty-four "Haihong Flag 91" defeated nine "Bramos".

At this time, the Brahmos anti-ship missile was only 40 kilometers away from the nearest air defense destroyers of Chengdu and Chongqing. The anti-ship missiles were actively searching the radar on the ground. After discovering the ground warships on the sea, three Brahmos quickly dived, and the flight altitude was reduced from 15,000 meters to less than ten meters.

The Chengdu once again launched six "Haihongqi 91" air defense missiles. The Chongqing also launched six air defense missiles at the fastest speed.

Four-on-one. The hit rate exceeded 98%!

The second batch of "Haihongqi 91" has not yet hit the target. Four general destroyers and six general frigates in the fleet have also joined the battle. They have fired "Haihongqi 81" medium-range air defense missiles.

No one is willing to use the end interception system to deal with the Brahmos anti-ship missile with a speed of more than Mach 2.5.

In a blink of an eye, three "Bramos" who escaped the first round of interception faced twelve "Haihongqi 91" and twenty-eight "Haihongqi 81" air defense missiles.

There is no doubt that this is a waste of expensive air defense missiles!

The price of a "Haihongqi 91" is twice that of a "Bramos". Lin Xiaolei has spent a lot of money on using so many air defense missiles to deal with three "Bramos". Of course, compared to the warship being hit by "Bramos", even if it is only injured, this effort is worth it.

The three "Bramos" had no chance to get close to the battleship, and were shot down when they were fifteen thousand meters away from the Special Mix fleet.

After confirming that there were no anti-ship missiles in the air, Lin Xiaolei breathed a sigh of relief and looked at his watch. After two o'clock, the air defense operation was only three minutes before and after!

In the three minutes of life and death, the special mixed fleet withstands the test, and the Republic's Navy's air defense system also withstood the test.

When the fleet lifted its air defense state, Lin Xiaolei wiped off the sweat from his forehead and asked the staff to make a cup of coffee for him. He had not closed his eyes for almost fifty hours. After getting off the bed, he could sleep for several days.

"Chief, the Indian fleet was defeated!"

Lin Xiaolei was in spirit again. "Put the image on the tactical screen!"

The image was sent back from the Ka-27 helicopter that first arrived over the western Indian fleet and was driven by Yan Yunxiang. On the sea, there were only seven battleships burning in the fire.

"Three 'Bangaluru', three 'Derri' and one 'Talva', and the other two 'Talvas' have sunk."

"Contact Yan Yunxiang and let him report the situation directly to me."

The communications consultant immediately connected Yan Yunxiang's communication channel.

"Captain Yan Yunxiang, I am Lin Xiaolei."

"Chief, I am Yan Yunxiang. Do you need me to fly closer?"

"No, I can see it very clearly." Lin Xiaolei took the coffee cup handed over by the staff officer, "I want to know if there is any need to conduct a supplementary attack."

"Chief, there are still seven warships that have not sunk." Yan Yunxiang paused for a moment and said, "The sea is full of Indian naval officers and soldiers. The captains of the seven Indian warships have issued orders to abandon ships, but to be on the safe side, I suggest a second round of additional attacks."

"Can you definitely need a second round of attack?" Lin Xiaolei was obviously reluctant to part with the expensive anti-ship missiles.

"I can be sure. The waters of the western Indian fleet are located are very close to the Indian territorial waters. Maybe the Indian Navy will send ships to drag the damaged warships back."

Lin Xiaolei nodded slightly and asked the staff officer next to him: "How far are we from the Western Indian Fleet?"

"Two-eighty kilometers, just the maximum range of c-803." Obviously, the staff officer supported the supplementary attack.

"Yan Yunxiang, you evacuate immediately and prepare to guide the anti-ship missiles to carry out the second round of attack."

"I understand, we'll evacuate right away!"

The image on the screen swayed a few times and then disappeared.

"Contact six frigates and launch missiles in five minutes."

At 11 o'clock at night, two air defense destroyers and six general frigates launched four C-803 anti-ship missiles respectively.

Before these anti-ship missiles were launched, the most severely hit USS Bengaluru, the destroyer Mumbai and the frigate of the USS Tabar, were overturned and sunk one after another.

Sixteen minutes later, thirty-two C-803 anti-ship missiles hit four battleships floating on the sea.

At 0:14 am on July 16, the Delhi destroyer, which had lasted until the end, finally bid farewell to the air, facing downwards, and head upwards into the sea.

Starting from the attack on the nuclear submarine of the Orcas attacking three Squid-class conventional submarines before 22:00 on the 15th, the sinking of the Delhi was a total of two hours and twenty.

In just one hundred and forty minutes, the Indian Air Force lost 82 combat aircraft, the Indian Navy lost six destroyers, three frigates and three conventional submarines. On the other side of the battle, the Republic's Navy did not lose a fighter jet or a warship, and only consumed 216 air-to-air missiles, 164 anti-ship missiles and five heavy torpedoes.

One-sided battle, one-sided result.

Major General Lin Xiaolei, who has always been cautious and attaches great importance to his opponent, laughed to the end and won the most important victory since the founding of the Republic Navy. Lieutenant General Leval, who was daydreaming, sank into the sea with the "Bangaluru" destroyer, causing the Indian Navy to suffer the most miserable failure since the founding of the Army.

In the early morning of the 16th, Lin Xiaolei sent out a good news.

This is somewhat redundant. The General Staff mobilized several military satellites to monitor the combat situation at all times. Before the Special Mixed Fleet launched the second round of missile attacks, General Staff Peng Maobang already knew the result of the battle.

It is not only the Republic's military satellites that monitor the Western Indian fleet and the Republic's special fleet.

When the battle ended, it happened to be 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the 15th.

Japeer had long expected India to lose, but he did not expect India to lose all its "underwear".

When Secretary of State Lynch and National Security Assistant Eric arrived, Jabel received a call from Wesley, deputy director of CIA intelligence.

"Just like this, continue to pay attention to China's actions, and tell me immediately if there is any new news." After putting down the microphone, Jia Peier looked at the two aides. "I just received the news that China's air force deployed in the southwest region began to be frequently mobilized, and the Pakistani air force also frequently dispatched. It seems that China will not give up."

"Santos should be contacted immediately and a warning should be issued." Eric immediately made a suggestion.

"I have asked Wesley to issue a warning through intelligence channels." Japeer sighed secretly, "Although the possibility of China launching a ground war is still very small, based on the intelligence we have, China is likely to use air strikes to destroy the military infrastructure in eastern India, and achieve the goal of completely defeating India's defense and military forces."

"India will definitely not be able to withstand the full strike from the Chinese Air Force."

"The conflict is likely to escalate," Lynch continued Eric's words. "If India is threatened, Santos may take risks, and we must stop the scale of the war."

Jia Peier knew very well what it meant to "take risks". If you are too impatient, you will jump over the wall, let alone a nuclear country.

"The question is, what can I do now to stop China from taking ruthless action?" Eric looked at the Secretary of State.

"United Nations." Lynch's answer was very direct, "China has proposed a proposal to sanction both sides of the war. If it is approved by the United Nations, China will not rashly expand the scale of the war to avoid humiliation."

Japeer's brow jumped a few times, understanding what Lynch meant. "How much time will it take to get the resolution passed?"

"There is no problem for Britain and France, and eight rotating directors voted in favor. Russia will not oppose China and will definitely abstain from the vote. If it moves quickly, it will be approved by the Security Council this evening."

"Go and try to get the proposal effective in the Council by this evening."

Japeer didn't hesitate anymore, and he didn't have time to hesitate.

The Chinese Navy only took two hours to destroy the Western Indian Fleet. If China is given a few more hours, it will be more than the Western Indian Fleet.
