※ A key electronic depth gauge divides the number that beats quickly. 【】The official in the command center breathed.

Although Xiao Jingbo was very calm and did not even speed up his breathing, the officers and men knew that the captain was not not afraid, but he was more tolerant than others. In fact, only submarine officers who can keep calm at a critical moment are qualified to become the chief of the department, and every excellent captain of the Republic Navy has a strong ability to exercise self-control.

To be honest, Xiao Jingbo is also very nervous.

While paying attention to the depth gauge, he also stared at the two red dots of light on the tactical screen, which represented torpedoes.

"How much longer?"

Fifty-five seconds, Han Anbang let out a sigh and looked at the stopwatch in his hand again.

Xiao Jingbo frowned slightly and fell silent again.

Forty-five seconds, Han Anbang reminded the captain.

The noise control system is ready, and the decoy bomb is ready Xiao Jingbo stood up and grabbed the handrail next to him, "Thirty down, thirty on the tail, ready to turn."

"The noise control system is ready

"Decoy bombs are ready."

"Thirty on the top, thirty under the tail, 7 at a depth, jumping" When the helmsman reported, he also reported the depth data that was getting closer and closer to the death line.

"How much longer?" Xiao Jingbo glanced at his deputy.

Han Anbang pressed and said, Xiao Jingbo read a few times, and suddenly said: "Start the noise control system." ”

Hearing the captain's order, the electronic officer smashed his fist on the activation of the active noise control system.

"Thirty on the top, thirty under the tail, full rudder on the left, full power propulsion."

Xiao Jingbo issued a series of orders, and the main helmsman and co-helmsman completed the captain's instructions with great speed.

"Decoy bombs are accurate" Xiao Jingbo stopped, and waited until the submarine was obviously leaning up, and then said loudly, "Shoot decoy bombs." ”

"Decoy ejection!"

"The right full rudder, the lower ten, the tail rudder is balanced, and a third is piled in power

The submarine leaned again, and there was a commotion in the boat.

"Keep quiet...... Xiao Jingbo glanced at everyone and turned his gaze to the electronic officer, "How long can the noise control system last?" ”

"Five minutes at most." The electronic officer wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"That's enough." Xiao Jingbo also sighed.

At this time, two muffled explosions were heard outside the boat, and the officers and men in the command center, as well as the officers and men in the other cabins, breathed a sigh of relief. Under the command of the best submarine commander in the republic, many submarine officers and men went to the Ghost Gate and rushed back.

"Anbang, re-time, reduce to slack after fourteen minutes." Xiao Jingbo knocked on the fire control screen, and waited for Han Anbang to come over before saying, "Go here and find a place to hide, and after confirming that the Yankees are not following, shoot the communication buoy." Report on our location and situation

Han Anbang nodded, indicating that he understood what the captain meant.

Xiao Jingbo did not leave the command center, but sat in the captain's position, took out a cigarette from his bag, took out one, and handed the cigarette case to the chief engineer next to him. Although according to the latest rules of the Republic Navy, even the captain of a ship is not allowed to smoke in the command center, but according to the unwritten rules of the submarine force, when it is necessary to relax, no one will care about the broken things set by the Navy's disciplinary department.

Obviously, the officers and men of the "Manta Whale" need to relax.

Although the battle was not fierce at the beginning, it was definitely not an easy task for this submarine, who had never participated in actual combat, and for many officers and men who did not know that they were going to go to the battlefield when they left the port, it was definitely not an easy task to fight against three American submarines at the same time, and also to face an opponent of equal strength.

After receiving an order from the submarine headquarters, Xiao Jingbo immediately gave a battle order, but did not rush to attack.

At that time, the "Manta Whale" was in a very awkward position. Although the boat is close enough, even if the performance of the boat is comparable to that of the "Manta Whale", even if there is an active noise control system, due to technical limitations, the active noise control system cannot interfere with the sound waves produced by the active attack sonar on the submarine and the torpedo, and in the future that can be seen, due to power limitations, the active noise control system cannot deal with the active attack sonar, so as long as the "Manta Whale" attacks first, there is enough certainty that the boat fighter will be killed before the opponent returns fire, but after the boat is killed, "Manta Jiao." The ship will face a flanking attack from the left and right of the Atlanta-class attack submarines. With the situation at the time, even if the "Bat" used the sideside passive sonar to lock the rainbow ship "Atlanta." and then guide the torpedo to force the American submarine in the form of a wire-guided attack, there is no problem of insufficient fire control channels, and it also has to face a big problem, that is, it must first attack the front of the Ti Guan, so as not to be counterattacked by the most advanced American submarines, and then it can attack and break through "Atlanta." class, because the "Atlanta" class is on both sides of the "Manta Ray", it is possible to use the sideside passive sonar to show the torpedo fired by the "Manta Whale", so as to roughly determine the position of the "Manta Whale". As long as the captain of the "Atlanta" class has a little brain, he will take the initiative to reduce it, go around the rear of the "Manta Whale", activate the main attack sonar located on the boat, search for the sea area where the "Manchai" is located, and then attack the "Manta" with heavy torpedoes. As long as the US submarine is moved to turn at the same time and leave the ideal detection area of the passive sonar on the side side, the "Bat Han" can only be forced to turn around, and it is impossible to bite the US submarine on the left or the US submarine on the right, and it is impossible to bite two US submarines at the same time. That is to say, in the end, even if the boat was killed in advance, the "Manta Whale" could only do the "Extra-large" class, and then it was sunk by another extra-large and "class".

Not to mention Xiao Jingbo, who is known for his stability, even if he changes Hua Jianfeng and Liu Haifeng, he will not act rashly.

Thinking about this clearly, Xiao Jingbo will not take risks.

In fact, the advantage is still in Xiao Jingbo's hands, and none of the three US submarines have the "Bat Zor". For Xiao Jingbo, he only needs to do one thing well before the attack to achieve perfect results, that is, take the initiative to distance himself and put three US submarines in front.

For the "Manta Whale", this is not a difficult task.

After subtracting the sailing steps, "the bats." Once again, the voyage was raised to the point of mouth, that is, the degree of sailing of the American submarine.

At this time, it was already a bad day and old point in local time.

After locking on to the three targets, Yu Jingbo asked the ordnance chief to enter fire control data for the torpedo.

The attack tactics were not complicated, the "Manta Whale" simultaneously fired Yu torpedoes from the torpedo tube slightly Tian mm heavy anti-submarine torpedo, from the ammunition compartment fired Yu Wei nephew mm heavy anti-submarine torpedo, licking the millimeter heavy anti-submarine torpedo and the cover trade millimeter heavy anti-submarine torpedo respectively to attack the "Yat Mao Da" class, 4 mm heavy anti-submarine torpedoes concentrated attack boats, in addition to licking the nephew mm heavy anti-submarine torpedoes using the self-guided attack mode, attacking the "Atlanta" class of 2 West mm heavy anti-submarine torpedoes occupy the road fire control channel, The attack boat of the slightly millimeter heavy anti-submarine torpedo in the way occupied 2 fire control channels.

The key is not how to distribute firepower, but how to design attack routes

To put it simply, a torpedo is just a much smaller submersible than a submarine, and it will definitely make noise when sailing, so it is necessary to maximize the hit rate of the torpedo. In addition to improving the performance of the torpedo, it is also necessary to carefully design the attack route of the torpedo in battle to improve the concealment of the torpedo as much as possible.

It is not difficult to do this, just let the torpedo navigate in the "sonar blind zone" of the target.

It was the progress of the tactics of torpedo attack that was made a few years ago. The Navy of the Republic and the U.S. Navy came up with the "submarine formation tactics." "Treat attack submarines as "underwater fighters" and improve the combat efficiency of attack submarines by fighting in formation. Because submarines are not fighter planes, and no country builds submarines like they produce fighter jets, the "submarine formation tactics" have always been in the stage of theoretical research and have not been recognized by the navies of various countries. It's just that in the submarine forces of the republic and the United States, the discussion related to the operation of formations has penetrated to the grassroots. As long as the conditions allow the thugs, the dive captain will try his best to cooperate with other captains.

The "Manta Whale" was to deal with the whip American submarine that adopted the "formation tactic." ”

Whether it is an attack submarine or a strategic submarine, because the propulsion system that produces loud noise is deployed in the tail section, the direction of the stern has always been a blind spot for passive sonar detection. In order to solve this problem, strategic submarines mainly adopt two methods, one is to use towed sonar, and the other is to do irregular maneuvers. Obviously, neither of these approaches is very suitable for attack submarines. Although attack submarines of various countries are equipped with towed sonar, most of the time, towed sonar is simply not useful. To put it simply, when towed sonar can be used, the attack submarine basically does not need to consider the threat from the rear, or there is no threat around it, and when it is necessary to consider the potential threat, in order to ensure maneuverability, the captain of the attack submarine is reluctant to release the towed sonar, and in extreme cases, he will even take the initiative to cut off the towed sonar. Based on the experience summed up by the Republic's submarine micro-length, attack submarines have the opportunity to use towed sonar only in low-intensity confrontations such as searching for strategic submarines of potential adversaries, while attack submarines rarely have the opportunity to use towed sonar in high-intensity confrontations and combat operations. The same is true for maneuver maneuvers, because attack submarines are not strategic submarines, they rarely carry out round-trip patrols in a certain sea area, and the tasks they carry out are often time-limited, so it is necessary to reduce the transit time. Take the combat operation of the "Manta Whale" this time as an example, in order to reach the warring sea area in time, it had to raise its course to above the blade knot for a time, so how could there be time to tease around on the way?

For attack submarines, the only way to solve the problems caused by the "sonar blind spot" is to act in formation.

Broken "Atlanta." In addition to covering the boat in front, the class also uses the side sonar to monitor the movement in the direction of the stern of the opponent's boat, so as to cover each other. If the active noise control system had not been activated, I am afraid that the "Bat Zor" would have been discovered by the American submarine long ago.

As the attacker, Xiao Jingbo had to make full use of the "sonar blind spot" of the enemy boat.

According to the intelligence provided by the Military Intelligence Agency and the data summarized by other submarines after the confrontation with the US submarine, the blind spot of the tail sonar of the "Atlanta" class is between the horizontal left and right old degrees and the vertical left and right old degrees, which is a hole area with a general circular cross-section. Although it is not clear how large the sonar blind zone of the boat is, according to the calculation of the "Atlanta" class, it is possible to get the overlapping area of the sonar blind zone of three submarines. In this area, the passive sonar of the three submarines could not show the approaching torpedoes. In other words, as long as the torpedo is as much as possible in this area, the success rate of the torpedo attack can be maximized.

For Xiao Jingbo and the chief of ordnance, the high-level electronic equipment helped a lot.

With the help of the fire control computer, the ordnance chief does not have to rely on his head to calculate the fire control data like his predecessors in the past few years, all the complex calculation work is handed over to the computer, and all the soldiers have to do is to determine whether to attack, when to attack, and give the attack order.

Of course, giving the order to attack is not the business of the ordnance chief.

The force was not enough, and Xiao Jingbo began to give instructions for preparing for the attack.

It was at this time that the boat suddenly turned left and broke "Atlanta." The level also followed the left turn.

didn't wait for Xiao Jingbo to react. 3 American submarines began to add.

It is clear that the American submarine definitely received a new order.

According to the situation at that time, it is very likely that the broken US submarine received an order to intercept the "Clipper Fleet", because the Clipper Fleet had already left Rio Gallegos, and the three US submarines were in the waters northwest of the Falklands, except for the thug line operating west of the Falklands. What's more, the ship "fast." Grade with "Atlanta." class took part in the combat operation of the ambush of the Argentine flotilla, only "fast." There are also 4 anti-ship missiles on the torpedo racks of the class, and the American submarine tracked by the "Manta Whale" did not participate in the ambush of the Argentine convoy and should have each had several old anti-ship missiles. After the "Clipper Fleet" left port, it sailed westward at a degree of more than 7 knots, and it is impossible for the US Navy not to know that the ideal weapon against the "Clipper Fleet" is not heavy torpedoes, but anti-ship missiles. In this way, the U.S. Navy will definitely turn the flawed submarine south.

The problem is that the abrupt turn of the American submarine to Canada makes the situation less favorable for the "Manta Whale".

If it was in the past, Xiao Jingbo would definitely hold back his anger and keep the same degree to catch up. Because it was not clear what the purpose of the US submarine was turned to Canada, Xiao Jingbo could not bear it.

There was only one choice before him, to immediately attack first, and then to deal with the counterattack of American submarines.

Although Xiao Jingbo doesn't like to take risks, he doesn't shy away from taking risks when he has no choice.

The "Manta Gan" fired a salvo of heavy torpedoes.

Because the US submarine had turned around and accelerated its voyage, the torpedo fired by the "Manta Whale" had to catch up with the US submarine at a faster rate, and it left the "sonar blind spot" of the US submarine ahead of schedule and entered the detection range of the US submarine's side sonar.

Fortunately, Xiao Jingbo has enough practical experience

When you decide to attack first. Xiao Jingbo adjusted the attack arrangement, using a slightly concave millimeter heavy anti-submarine torpedo to attack the "Atlanta" class and four other torpedo attack boats. More importantly, Xiao Jingbo let the Zhao mm heavy torpedo that licked the self-guided attack rush to the boat at the fastest degree from the beginning, while the chrome field mm heavy torpedo followed his nephew with a quiet sail. Although this will expose the torpedo in advance and give the US submarine more time to evade, it can also cover the chromium field millimeter heavy torpedo, and let the "Manta Whale" adjust the attack mode of the torpedo according to the reaction of the US submarine, so as to improve the attack efficiency of the torpedo.

Xiao Jingbo had to figure out one thing: whether the boat was an attack submarine on a par with the "Manta Whale."

From the very beginning, Xiao Jingbo did not take the "Atlanta" level in his eyes. If there is no boat, even if you face more "Atlanta" class. Xiao Jingbo is also very sure.

In order to figure out the "nature" of the boat, Xiao Jingbo could not bet all the bets at once.

There is not much suspense about the action of the attack on the "Atlanta" class. Although the whereabouts of the all-sailing photomillimeter heavy torpedo were soon exposed, and the "Atlanta"-class attack submarine immediately turned to evade, before the two American submariners came back to their senses, the "Bat" fire control computer controlled by the "Bat" through a fiber-optic wire had already adjusted its direction and chased after it along the shortest course. "Atlanta. The maximum submersible degree of the attack submarine class will not exceed the Feng Festival, and the quiet navigation of the heavy anti-submarine torpedo of the millimeter is above the medicine section, and the sprint can sail at the level of the nautical mile above. That is to say, when the Tian mm heavy torpedo begins to sprint, as long as the distance does not exceed the old nautical miles, it will be able to catch up with the "Atlanta" class attack submarines. In fact, at the time of firing the torpedo, the distance between the "Batzo" and the two "Atlanta" class ships was within the old sea. In accordance with the tests of the Navy of the Republic, in the fight against the "Atlanta." When the performance of the "killer whale" class is comparable, the hit rate of the heavy anti-submarine torpedoes of the millimeter is above the infallibility, which is basically foolproof.

Broken "Atlanta." The level "struggled" for less than a minute, and then sank to the bottom of the sea with a dull explosion.

However, the battle was just beginning at this time.

The attack boat's actions not only did not go well, but caused problems for the "Manta Whale".

At the time of the "Atlanta" class evasion torpedo, the boat disappeared from the "Manta Whale"!

Xiao Jingbo reacted with the fastest degree: immediately cut the torpedo wires and activate the active noise control system.

Fortunately, the four four-millimeter heavy torpedoes that attacked the "Atlanta" class had already entered the fire control data and could enter the self-guided attack state at any time, and there was no need for the "Manta Whale" to provide more attack data.

It can be seen that Xiao Jingbo had long expected that the boat would be difficult to deal with, so he kept a hand for himself.

When Xiao Jingbo gave the order, Han Anbang and other officers and soldiers also reacted, the boat was an advanced submarine on a par with the "Manta Whale" and equipped with an active noise control system!
