At this time, the fleet commander of the Republic Navy had to be smarter.

When the battlefield is not transparent to both sides, two huge fleets are moving around the ocean. It is equivalent to two people holding sharp daggers looking for and attacking each other in a dark room. Imagine, in this case, is it easier to use a flashlight to find the opponent, or is it easier to find the opponent from the flashlight?

In fact, both sides understand this truth.

After the war broke out, the Republic's Navy fleet first entered a radio silent state, and even prohibited the use of alert radar before entering the war zone. All fleet alert tasks are undertaken by the passive detection system. After the United States joined the war, the U.S. Navy fleet also entered a radio silent state. Some important commands were sent unilaterally. If messages were needed to be sent to the base, as long as they were not particularly urgent, they would use traffic planes instead of radio stations.

The problem is that in some cases, a radio station must be used.

For example, when multiple fighters are advised to fly to the East Indian Ocean, the US rapid transport fleet that has been hiding deep in the ocean must send out radio signals to allow fighters whose remaining fuel is not enough to return to the Australian continent to find their way forward. Instead of around the light fuel and falling into the sea. Of course, some advanced fighters do not burn oil, but use electricity. But no matter what, when the US military cannot provide enough refueling machines and chargers, these fighters must find a place to land before burning out the fuel or using photoelectric energy.

Affected by this, the US military's maritime base will definitely send out radio signals, and it must send out signals after assembly.

There is no doubt that this is the opportunity the South China Sea Fleet is waiting for.

Of course, there is also a problem in this, that is, the radiation intensity of the navigation signals sent by the US military's maritime base is definitely very low, and it has a certain directionality, so the detectable distance will be very limited. If it is outside the directional range, the detectable distance will be even more limited. As for the radio navigation system on the Republic's Navy aircraft carrier, under normal circumstances, the detectable ability is less than 1,000 meters. If it is operated completely according to the wartime manual, its detectable ability is even less than 2,000 meters. In this case, even if the signal is gained through an electronic system and compared with the intelligence provided by the Military Intelligence Bureau, that is, the signal sent by the US fleet will be found from many weak radio signals, and the maximum detection distance in actual combat will not exceed 1,000 meters.

That is, the fleet must be placed in a sea area that is sufficient to detect navigation signals from US marine bases.

That is, after entering the Indian Ocean from the Sunda Strait, the South China Sea Fleet did not directly advance westward, but advanced at full speed to the southwest. When the Third Fleet was attacked, the exact location of the South China Sea Fleet was not a kilometer north of the Kokos Islands, but about a kilometer southwest of the Kokos Islands, and the distance with the Third Fleet would not exceed Xu Qianqian. In other words, the attack on the Third Fleet was not a heavy anti-ship missile projected by the strategic Hongxu aircraft, but a heavy anti-ship missile launched by many old escort warships in the South China Sea Fleet with a maximum range of 2.6 kilometers. According to the combat records of the Republic Navy, the carrier-based aviation of the South China Sea Fleet was also involved in the attack. To be precise, the anti-ship missile projected by carrier-based fighters. Because the Third Fleet was completely wiped out in combat, and air-launched anti-ship missiles generally undertake the second round of attack tasks, it is not surprising that the US military has no relevant combat records.

About 4 hours after the attack of the US Third Fleet, which was about minutes after the South China Sea Fleet received the combat alarm, an electronic reconnaissance aircraft operating in the southeast of the fleet intercepted a set of radio signals, which was quickly identified as the navigation signal of the US Navy, and sent the message back to the fleet using a directional laser communication channel. Because the long-range patrol aircraft closest to the South China Sea Fleet was out of sight, and using radio contact patrol aircraft would also expose the whereabouts of the South China Sea Fleet, after receiving the report of the electronic reconnaissance aircraft, the South China Sea Fleet immediately dispatched 6 tactical reconnaissance aircraft, which were actually heavy air-control fighters, arranged the licking reconnaissance route in the form of fan distribution.

It has to be admitted that the triangular method can only measure the direction parameters of the target, but cannot measure the distance parameters of the target. In fact, the distance parameters are not important, because according to the previous analysis, electronic reconnaissance aircraft can intercept electronic signals, indicating that the US military's maritime base is hundreds of kilometers away, and the distance between the electronic reconnaissance aircraft and the South China Sea Fleet is within a few kilometers. Therefore, the distance between the US military's maritime base and the South China Sea Fleet will not exceed the persuasion of 1,000 kilometers, not only within the strike range of the ship-based heavy anti-ship missile, but also within the strike range of the naval gun. More importantly, in the previous battle against the Third Fleet, the ships of the South China Sea Fleet were

Most of the heavy-load anti-ship missiles have been used up, while heavy missiles can only be reloaded in ports. Most warships do not have reloading systems or backup missiles. In other words, they can only use naval guns and carrier-based fighters to attack the US sea bases. Because the dispatch of carrier-based fighters has a process, ranging from minutes to hours, and during this period, a naval gun can deliver dozens of tons or even hundreds of tons of shells. Therefore, in extremely close combat, naval guns are still the most ideal sea-control weapon, but the "extremely close" distance has extended from a force of kilometers in the centuries to the heart. kilometers.

Of course, before using naval guns to attack the US sea dagger base, the exact location of the US sea base must be confirmed first.

To be precise, it is to determine the approximate location of the US military's maritime base. In any case, the maritime base can also sail, and the navigation speed is not too slow. More importantly, the maritime base is equipped with an interception system, which can intercept incoming missiles and shells. In fact, because the shells fired by naval guns are mostly non-guided shells, after all, in the face of forced electromagnetic interference systems, the value of guided shells is not very high, so using naval guns to strike maritime targets is generally based on the spread of shells to the target's activity area.

Covered shelling means using dense rain of bullets to make up for the problems caused by insufficient shelling accuracy and ensure that the target can be hit. Because the spiral electromagnetic gun has a lower limit on the quality of the shell, the mass of the standard naval artillery shell has been increased from the kilogram to the kilogram. No warship in the world can withstand direct strikes from such a huge shell, let alone the sea base built according to the standards of civilian ships, so as long as it can hit, even if it hits one shot, it can ensure that one module of the sea base loses its working ability.

According to the test conducted by the Republic Navy, when dealing with a sea base consisting of units with a length of auxiliary meters and wide field meters and multiple functional units, at most four shells from the heart to the blade can cause it to lose its combat capability. When the throwing amount reaches four and is shaky, it can be completely destroyed.

For a large fleet with 3 aircraft carriers as the core, 6 cruisers, multi-purpose destroyers and anti-submarine destroyers, it is definitely not difficult to throw kilogram-class shells in a short period of time.

As mentioned above, the only question of whether the firepower of naval guns can be effectively exerted is whether the target can be found!
