readx; In the eastern waters of the Amami Islands in the northern part of the Ryukyu Islands, the wind and waves are a little high tonight, although it cannot be said that the sea conditions are very bad, but it is far from calm, and a few stars hang in the night sky, and the sparse starlight does not provide enough light for the vast sea, making the whole sea pitch black. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

And on this pitch-black sea, a large-scale fleet is sailing in the wind and waves at a speed of about twelve knots, although today's wind and waves are not big, and it has little impact on those large ships, but it still causes great turbulence to some transport ships under 1,000 tons in this fleet.

If you just look at it with the naked eye, you won't be able to spot it even if you stand in front of this fleet.

However, on the other side of the pitch-black sea, there is also a fleet sailing on the pitch-black sea, and this fleet belongs to the second mobile fleet. In the Chinese Navy, the First Fleet is responsible for operations in the entire North Pacific waters, and the First Fleet is organized into three mobile fleets, namely the First Mobile Fleet, the Second Mobile Fleet, and the Fifth Mobile Fleet, in addition to some sub-fleets directly under the First Fleet. But on the whole, in the confrontation operation, the above three mobile fleets are the absolute main force.

At present, this fleet is not the main force of the Second Mobile Fleet, because the main force of the Second Mobile Fleet is still far away, and here is only a patrol fleet under the Second Mobile Fleet, temporarily numbered the 25th Subfleet, which has one heavy cruiser, two light cruisers, and six destroyers, and they exist as the left flank reconnaissance fleet of the Second Mobile Fleet.

On the Fuliang, Captain Pei Ao urgently walked into the radar control room, and as soon as he entered, he asked: "What's the situation, did you find the enemy?" ”

Immediately, the second lieutenant on duty on the radar just stood up and said: "It shouldn't be wrong, just now our radar shows that there is a large-scale fleet due west of us, and it is roughly estimated that there are at least ten or more ships, and the sailing speed is relatively slow, it is estimated that the formation speed is only ten knots, and it is very likely that it is my own transport fleet!" ”

Captain Pei Ao walked over, then looked down at the radar display, and then picked up the record file handed over by the second lieutenant, and after reading it carefully, he frowned: "Continue to track the signal of the enemy ship!" ”

Chen Ranbing was urgently woken up by his subordinates from his sleep, his temper was not very good, and his face was even more unsightly when he was woken up in the middle of his sleep, and when he was about to frown and blame, Captain Pei Ao spoke: "Sir, there is a trace of the enemy transport fleet thirty nautical miles away on the left!" ”

Although Chen Ranbing had a bad temper, when he heard that there was an enemy, his face instantly became serious, and he hurriedly put on his coat.

"What's going on?" Chen Ranbing said as he walked quickly towards the bridge.

Captain Pei Ao followed closely and said: "The enemy fleet is about thirty nautical miles to the left of our ship, and according to the radar display, it is preliminarily judged to be twelve enemy ships, but at this time, the sea conditions are a little complicated, and it is difficult for the sea search radar to search for a longer distance. It is not clear for the time being whether the enemy fleet has other ships in the rear!

At this time, the enemy fleet was heading southwest from the sea directly east of the Amami Islands, and the speed of the enemy fleet formation was only about ten knots, so it was determined that the fleet should be a transport formation, and the purpose should be to go to the Ryukyu Islands! ”

Chen Ranbing said: "Report the relevant situation to the flagship Chief Yang!" ”

The commander Yang in Chen Ranbing's mouth is Rear Admiral Yang Kunlin, the commander of the fleet, that is, the 25th Squadron.

Not long after, on the Shiguang number, which was several nautical miles away from Fuliang, Yang Kunlin appeared in the war room of the headquarters wearing a single coat and a coat, and the officers in the war room had already begun to be nervously busy.

After Yang Kunlin learned of the discovery of the enemy ship, he immediately said: "Let the Fuliang move to the left to track and reconnoiter the enemy fleet." Then ordered the Zipan to immediately turn to cooperate with the Fuliang to investigate! ”

After Yang Kunlin gave these two orders, he did not stop passing the order, but continued: "Order all ships to prepare for battle, and turn the formation to the left at sixty degrees!" Also report to the Mobile Fleet! ”

Rear Admiral Yang Kunlin is an old qualified admiral, he was born in the former Qing Navy, and during his tenure, he has always been in the destroyer fleet and cruiser fleet, and he is good at lightning strike operations!

After Yang Kunlin's order was issued, the Fuliang and the Zipan, a few nautical miles in front of the Fuliang, immediately turned to the left and began to approach the fleet for more in-depth radar reconnaissance.

Otherwise, the distance is too far, and even if the two warships are equipped with China's second-generation sea search radar, it will be difficult to detect more information.

In the development of China's radar, shipborne radar is a very important component, and shipborne radar is divided into four types, one is an anti-aircraft search radar, one is an anti-aircraft fire control radar, one is a sea search radar, and the other is a sea fire control radar.

Among them, the development of air search warning radar is relatively early, while the sea search radar is relatively slow due to technical limitations, because the technical requirements for sea search radar are relatively high.

To search the sea, because of the limitation of the earth's curved surface and the influence of wind and waves on the sea surface, it becomes extremely difficult to search the sea, and this has led to the development of China's first-generation sea search radar is very unsatisfactory, and it is not until the mature application of microwave radar that a relatively large breakthrough has been made in the field of sea radar.

Speaking carefully, the original research and development goal of this microwave radar was to provide ultra-low-altitude target detection for the air defense forces of the Air Force and the air defense fire of the Navy, but in this case, the Navy has obtained a suitable sea search radar.

China's microwave sea-to-sea radar has developed to the present, until today it has been widely equipped with almost all active combat ships, but it is also divided into the first generation in the early stage and the second generation in the later period, the specific surname can be quite different, Fuliang as one of the Fuyan-class cruisers, the construction time is relatively late, so it is different from the previous several Fuyan-class cruisers that are equipped with the first-generation sea search radar system, but the second-generation sea search radar system equipped with it. And it is precisely because the radar on this Fuliang is more advanced that it can detect this fleet earlier than other ships.

When the 25th Squadron of the Chinese Navy began to turn towards this transport fleet at high speed, the fleet that was strictly implementing silent navigation did not notice anything, and this cannot be blamed on them, because the sea was so dark at this time that it was impossible to visually detect enemy ships several nautical miles away.

He said, "Ben's radar has been developed for many years, and several years ago they have also developed microwave radar, but the radar I have made is far from being able to compare with the United States, China or the United Kingdom in terms of surname, and the overall surname is not even comparable to the first-generation radar in China and the United States."

After all, not every country can attach as much importance to the development of the electronics industry as China, and not every country can have a strong basic industry and R&D strength like Britain and the United States, and can come up with products in a short time when needed. He said, "The level of the electronics industry is average, so naturally we can't expect them to develop such an advanced radar system."

Since the twenties, China's various electronic products have begun to be introduced to the global market, including basic power facilities such as radios, electric fans, refrigerators and even electric lamps in various civilian products.

You must know that China's Fule Electric is the world's largest electrification industry giant, compared with the United States General Electric, Germany's Siemens scale is larger, perhaps Fule Electric can not be ahead of other peers in the world in all technologies, but Fule Electric is definitely involved in the most fields, the largest scale, and the product line is the broadest.

Under the leadership of Fule Electric, with the support of various advanced core components provided by Fule Electric, China's electrical industry has developed very rapidly, and various electrification products not only monopolize the domestic market, but also compete with GE in the United States, compete with Siemens in Europe and Germany, and compete with companies such as Siemens in Europe and Germany.

Before World War II, the military communication facilities of Italy, Spain, Turkey, Greece and other countries were purchased from Föhr Electric, and more countries' electrical equipment, such as generator sets of power stations, were purchased from Föhler Electric.

It can be seen that before World War II, these trust super enterprises had a huge market competitiveness, and it is understandable why China will vigorously support the development of these super enterprises, not only Fule Electric, but also Southeast Iron and Steel, Pacific Shipping, Fuhang Automobile, Sanshi Chemical and other enterprises after decades of support, have grown into super multinational enterprises.

And it is the competition of these super enterprises, especially the competition of Fule Electric, that makes it impossible to develop a large-scale electrical industry in China. In the electrical industry, the Southeast Asian market has always been the territory of Föhl Electric, not to mention China's domestic ones, and even most of the various electrical products over there are also Föhl Electric's products.

It's not that we don't want to compete, but it's that there is a huge difference in technology and cost.

Moreover, even though Ben and China fought two wars in the 20s and 30s, this did not change the relationship between Ben and China as important trading countries, and a series of treaties such as the Sino-Commercial Reciprocal Treaty signed by the two sides after the end of the Second Sino-Chinese War closely linked the commercial and trade relations between China and China. On the other hand, it is also the opening up of the vast market to Chinese products, so that China's various industrial products are filled in every corner.

In this kind of business environment, it is impossible to develop a large-scale electrification industry, because for a certain period of time, I even purchased military communication systems from Fule Electric, which shows that the advantages and disadvantages of decades of business and trade alliances are extremely obvious for this company.

The advantage was that the economy was revitalized, so that the economy was able to recover in the thirties and support the large-scale expansion of the army, and finally accumulated the foundation to start the Pacific War. But on the other hand, it has also made the development of the industry of the province has been limited to a certain extent, the textile industry is the representative of the rapid development of light industry, and the development of heavy industry, such as the important national defense industry, is also good, but in some core industries are greatly restricted, such as automobiles, steel, petroleum, electrical, etc.

With such a defect, it is naturally difficult to come up with a radar that can be superior, and the lack of advanced radar has also made the navy extremely limited in combat, and this defect has been highlighted in a series of previous operations with the British and American navies, saying that although the navy has made certain improvements and has also put a large number of radars in service, these radars are still far inferior to the radars of other countries in the same period.

And once again tonight!

When the 25th Squadron of the Chinese Navy discovered the transport fleet, it said, "This fleet and there is no response!"

Unbeknownst to them, the ships of the Chinese Navy not far away had already raised their guns with murderous violation, preparing to launch a fatal blow against this fleet!
