Chapter 644 Relay Guiding Precision Strike
138,139 The two ships launched the 3M-80 "Bailing" heavy supersonic anti-ship missile at the same time.
The two ships are more advanced than the 136 and 137 ships. Because it was the reason for subsequent orders, some targeted improvements were made according to the requirements of our navy. Anti-ship missile fired during the delivery test, and the effect was very good.
Back then, because our Navy urgently needed warships that could deter large surface ships, the 136 and 137 were second-hand goods purchased, and the subsequent two ships were newly built.
Before the 052C was put into service, the modern-class four musketeers were the absolute main force of our navy, while the 052B had only 168 and 169 ships, which were transitional models and could not bear the banner of our navy's naval strikes. For more than ten years, the protagonist of Navy News was the modern-class four musketeers.
There is only one ship of the 051B, the famous Shenzhen Ship No. 167, which started the scale-up of our navy's surface ships. It was the first destroyer with a displacement of more than 5,000 tons. The standard displacement reached 6,000 tons. It is a first-class ship with extremely strong experimental significance.
There are only two 051Cs built on this basis (115,116), and the construction speed is far less than that of 052C (the first two of the 052Cs were put into service earlier than them). This is because the purpose of this type of two ships was to carry two ship-based versions of the S-300F long-range air defense missile system (also known as the Reeve long-range air defense system) introduced at the same time by introducing modern-class destroyers. The air defense missile system is huge in size and was originally intended to be carried on the Glorious Class and Kirov-class cruisers of the 10,000-ton class.
The 051C was finally forced into the hangar with a displacement of more than 7,000 tons. The hangar of the ship was occupied by this huge air defense missile system, resulting in the ship's ship not having a hangar to store and repair the helicopter. It could only leave a helicopter on the flight deck of the ship's ship, which directly affected the anti-submarine capabilities of the warship. This is also one of the reasons why this class of ship has never undertaken the Gulf of Aden cruise mission. The long-range air defense missile system equipped by this class has certain anti-missile capabilities and is given the responsibility of protecting the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region.
Another thing that is criticized is that this class of ships uses a steam turbine as a power system. Before setting off, the boiler needs to be boiled and the starting is quite slow. Compared with the power systems of the two-stage destroyers using the alternating power system of the diesel-fueled destroyer is technically different.
It is said that the 10,000-ton large-scale destroyer under development will use more advanced domestic gas turbines, and will be the first warship of the People's Navy to use a domestic full-fuel power system to propel (the 112 ship uses the US LM-2500 gas power system, which is the main power of the US Navy warships. All Burke-class destroyers use this power system and have very advanced performance. my country obtained five sets during the honeymoon period of China and the United States, and built the 112 and 113 ships).
At least Li Zhan knew that his senior sister Zhu Qingying drove the Boeing-747-400 heavy all-cargo aircraft back and forth between central Sichuan and Eastern Europe. The goods she transported included a technical drawing and prototype of a gas turbine that had never been equipped.
Since the launch of two 052C-class destroyers in 2004, the People's Navy has begun to attract all the attention, and the People's Navy's dumpling project, which is expected to last for 30 years, has officially begun.
It can be foreseeable that before the new warships are put into service, these two 051C warships will basically not go out to the far sea for training, and will retreat from the position of the main warship in the future to serve as a warship to maintain the organization.
The 168 and 169 ships are mainly designed to carry the imported Russian-made SA-N-12 medium-range air defense missiles and the domestically produced alternative power system, and also have the purpose of testing new technologies and new equipment.
These are all transitional models, especially the 115 and 116 ships, and the emergency meaning is quite obvious.
The main warships of the People's Navy adopted this small step and fast running method for more than ten years and continuously accumulated experience and technology, and finally created the 052C, the 052D, and formed the main force of the navy's surface combat ships.
According to the well-mannered character of our people's army, these aging warships will not be abandoned and will definitely undergo deep modernization modifications, and then return to the combat sequence to continue patrolling the ocean and defending the maritime rights and interests of the motherland.
Li Zhan circled and flew in the designated airspace, and Niu Jun temporarily put down his camera and picked up the control panel to operate the comprehensive tactical pod.
When the two missiles reached the highest point, the comprehensive tactical pod captured the radio signal sent by the missile. Niu Jun quickly reported: "The signal has been intercepted and the command transmission channel has been established."
Li Zhan quickly confirmed the orientation data of the "Jiulong" and was ready for transmission.
The missile began to dive, and its speed quickly accelerated to Mach 2 during the dive. During this dive, the missile had already flew to a position seventy kilometers away from the warship. Next, the missile continued to fly at an altitude of about twenty meters from the sea surface, and the ramjet continued to accelerate the missile, reaching a maximum speed of Mach 2.7.
However, when Li Zhan discovered that when the missile dropped its height again to a position seven meters above the sea surface, the missile's speed was maintained at Mach 2.5. It seemed that the missile could not run to the maximum speed. However, Mach 2.5 was already a high speed that was difficult to defend.
"Transmission correction command!" Li Zhan said loudly when the missile was about twenty kilometers away from the bulk cargo ship of the "Jiulong".
Niu Jun began to transmit correction instructions to the two missiles, and reported at the same time: "The transmission of bomb No. 1 has been completed! The transmission of bomb No. 2 has been completed! All have been processed!"
The correction instructions of the comprehensive tactical pod are preferred. The missile will adjust the route according to the correction instructions. The seeker will repeatedly lock the target according to the latest target parameters to ensure that the target orientation data is the latest.
The advantage of relay guidance is that it can strike targets in high-speed motion more flexibly. After all, the performance of the fire-controlled radar on the missile's seeker is limited, far less than the accuracy and long-range of the airborne radar. Theoretically speaking, as long as the missile's range is sufficient, the fighter jet responsible for relay guidance can even direct the missile to a new target at the last moment to achieve optimal strike effect.
Li Zhan had already opened the afterburner and ran wildly towards the bulk cargo ship of the Chicken Cang. He dived at an altitude of 6,000 meters to increase the airspeed. These actions probably started when the comprehensive tactical pod captured the missile radio signal, otherwise he would not be able to approach the nearby area before the missile hits the target.
No. 81198, the old flying leopard reached a speed of 1.2 Mach. Niu Jun's breathing became rapid. He was surprised to find that the cockpit suddenly became much quieter. She knew that this was because the speed of the fighter jet had exceeded the speed of sound, and all the sounds were left behind.
Li Zhan had accurate calculations and operation. When he flew over the Jilong, he dropped his altitude, and then he saw two 3M-80 Bailing heavy supersonic anti-ship missiles flying against the sea. The distance was close enough to see the huge missile body of the missile, although the first level had departed.
Niu Jun seized the opportunity to use a telephoto lens to quickly shoot the scene of missiles flying against the sea surface, and even adjusted the focal length to shoot videos for more than ten seconds. Finally, he enclosed all the lenses as the "Jiu Cang" bulk cargo ship.
When Li Zhan set the target parameters, he sent the parameters of the first half of the "Jiu Cang" to the No. 1 bomb, and the parameters of the second half of the hull to the No. 2 bomb, and the distance between the two is only tens of meters. Li Zhan was not sure whether the two missiles could hit the target that should have hit.
Such precise guidance tests the combat performance of the combined combat power of the comprehensive tactical pod and missile. If high-precision strikes can be achieved, this is of great significance to actual combat.
The missiles in high-speed flight hit the targets from a distance of five meters above the water surface. This attack height is set by the missile, and the attacks are the parts that are most likely to cause the most trauma to the ship. A 3M-80 "Bailing" heavy supersonic anti-ship missile can tear a 6,000-ton warship missile. Two hits at the same time can basically cause a 100,000-ton aircraft carrier to lose its combat effectiveness. It is a veritable aircraft carrier killer.
Li Zhan stared at the two hulls of the "Jiu Cang" that were still struggling on the water. Because he could not get too close, he could not see the missile hitting the water. He only saw that the water where the two hulls were suddenly exploded, and the two hulls exploded instantly. The huge impact force tore the remaining hull. Several structures flew out and smashed heavily on the water surface, and then the smoke and water mist slowly spread.
"Wow!" Niu Jun couldn't help but be amazed.
Li Zhan was also shocked by the scene in front of him. He had fired many live ammunitions and had fired Feiyu anti-ship missiles in the Mediterranean before, but both missiles were intercepted urgently. At that time, no warship was hit by anti-ship weapons. The scene in front of him was much more shocking than the scene of more than a dozen Super Hornet fighters catching fire on the flight deck of the USS Roosevelt.
"It turns out that heavy anti-ship missiles hit the target are like this!" Li Zhan also sighed. The scene that seemed to destroy everything in the world gave birth to a truly insignificant feeling of human beings.
Li Zhan began to approach the Chicken Cang and flew around the sky to capture the damage effect. The Chicken Cang, which had a displacement of 30,000 tonnes, finally couldn't hold on. The two major hulls were sinking rapidly, and there was nothing else floating on the water except for some small pieces of wreckage. The ship had obviously cleaned up before pulling it over, and there was no obvious oil traces seeping out of the water surface, which was quite clean.
After completing the damage effect shooting according to the procedure, Li Zhan called the command post, "The command post, the angry old leopard has completed the damage shooting. I don't have much fuel anymore, so I requested to prepare for the landing as planned. It's over."
"The angry old leopard can be prepared to land on the large yard station. You have to bypass the air defense shooting airspace and finish." The command post could see the image of the camera installed on the No. 81198 JH-7 synchronously transmitting back. The commander-in-chief was very satisfied with the impact.
There has been no problem with the live-fire shooting on the first day. The connection between the various combat units is very compact, and the time nodes of the strike are no more than two minutes different, which is basically an excellent level. Everyone has also seen the combat effectiveness of the Flying Shark Force, which has just formed an ace force, which is worthy of being a elite pilot.
Li Zhan bypassed the air defense shooting airspace of the surface squad and flew towards the Dachang Station in Xiahai City. He wanted to replenish fuel maintenance fighter jets and hang up some ammunition, and then took off again at 17:00 in the afternoon to carry out the mission of fixed target fire strikes on the island.
Other fighter jets of the Flying Shark Squad cannot return, but continue to stick to the airspace after refueling in the air. One is air defense patrol, and the other is to control the prohibited navigation area. The main force of the air squad is the Bald Eagle Division affiliated to China Eastern Airlines (East Sea Fleet Air Force, non-China Eastern Airlines). The Flying Shark Squad is just a small part of it.
When Li Zhan arrived at the Dachang Station, it was 10:15 in the morning. He had been flying for more than four hours, and it was also a real long-term voyage.
He landed very carefully because he carried an aviation rocket launcher when he set out from the fertile soil Naval Flight Training Base, which was loaded with live ammunition, which was a landing with ammunition.
The large station is stationed with a large number of Flying Leopard fighters. This station is one of the stations with the highest comprehensive support capabilities in the coastal areas, and has the ability to guarantee all HNA's active aircraft. After Li Zhan entered the apron, he immediately came to receive the aircraft and immediately launched support for the fighter.
A commuter car took Li Zhan and Niu Jun directly to the guesthouse for rest and wait for dinner. After lunch, they immediately rested. Niu Jun was in an excited state and couldn't fall asleep, while Li Zhan fell asleep within two minutes after lying down.
Full sleep is the guarantee of long-term flights. After the afternoon is dispatched, it will be another day and night. His mission is to fire the fixed targets of the island at the intersection of day and night, mainly using aviation rockets and artillery. This made Li Zhan feel a little interested. He prefers to fire precisely guided bombs, such as LS series precision guided bombs and precision guided bombs that add power guidance kits to ordinary aviation bombs.
Air-to-ground missiles and precise ammunition outside the defense zone are relatively expensive, so he dare not expect to be fired frequently. Moreover, in future operations, it will be used in low-priced precision guided bombs, so it is very important to be proficient in how to use precision guided bombs.
Unfortunately, there was no arrangement for confirmation of guided bombs in this live-fire shooting. The Bald Eagle Division had to fire several air-to-ground missiles, including those using air-to-ground missiles to attack surface moving targets.
The question is whether Li Zhan’s afternoon strike mission can be carried out smoothly. The exercise command asked the Feisha Team to be responsible for the control of the prohibited navigation zone. The reason is that the time and sea area of this live-fire exercise are of concern, and it is under great pressure to prevent external aircraft and ships entering the prohibited navigation zone and affect the progress of the exercise.
The mission he was responsible for driving the No. 81198 JH-7 has a strong sense of support, rather than being included in the combat unit. If the power to control the prohibited navigation zone is insufficient, the exercise command will definitely let him take it. After all, everyone believes that the sound of the mad dog in the South China Sea is a powerful tool for radio expulsion.
At 2:30 pm, Li Zhan got up on time. Niu Jun was already waiting in the lobby of the guesthouse. The two quickly rushed to the restaurant for dinner. At 3:00 pm, they went to the flight briefing room to dress. After communicating with the station there, they went to the apron to accept the fighter jet at 4:00 pm.
The two secondary fuel tanks of the No. 81198 JH-7 were filled with aviation fuel, and the fuel tanks in the aircraft were all filled, giving the fighter a range of up to 3,800 kilometers. The comprehensive tactical pod is still there, but the weapon is still the two 90 mm aero rocket launchers.
It is obvious that the exercise command did not make any adjustments to Li Zhan's mission. After completing the firepower strike on the island, his mission would be transferred to control the periphery of the prohibited navigation zone to ensure the smooth progress of the exercise.
At 6 pm, the No. 81198 JH-7 took off from the Dachang Station, flew at a low altitude through the dense residential areas and continued to climb like a passenger plane, and advanced towards the East China Sea with its back facing the sun.
