Chapter 1260: Military-Strategic Siege of Israel
The Second Amphibious Combat Fleet, with one Aegis ship, also serves as the command core of the entire fleet.
In addition to the five amphibious ships as the core, there are also three multi-purpose destroyers and four sea scorpions, and there are also two conventional Akula-class submarines to escort the escort.
The supply of the fleet is met by two fast combat support ships.
Because the fleet of the Red Guard Corps is powered by a black technology-like magnetic power generation power system, the ships themselves do not need to consume any fuel at all.
This allows the warship to have more space to install equipment and weapons systems, making the crew cabin very spacious, like a small hotel on the sea.
Therefore, all warships can have a strong ocean-going endurance, but they need to replace the magnetic energy materials of the power system every year.
This is the strongest black technology possessed by the Red Guard Corps, and once the outside world knows about it, it will surely set off a huge military revolution.
After all, this technology has the potential to change the landscape of military development too much, especially for submarines.
With this technology, the Red Guard Corps does not need any AIP submarine power technology at all, and can completely achieve a long-term underwater endurance like nuclear power.
There is also no space taken up by the propeller shaft, and the propeller is directly propelled forward with electricity.
It's just that this technology has a disadvantage, that is, the ship needs to have a large number of power storage equipment, and magnetic power generation is a stable power generation value, and the power generation is uncontrollable.
And the power provided by the magnetic reactor is actually completely insufficient for the combat use of the fleet.
This is because in peacetime when non-combat operations require electrical preparation, otherwise it is impossible to meet all the operational needs of warships by relying on the efficiency of immediate power generation.
Therefore, next to the power compartment of the warship, there must be a liquid metal storage tank of considerable scale, in which all the surplus electricity on the warship will be stored.
Under normal circumstances, there is a surplus of electricity for economic navigation and normal use of equipment, and when all these surplus electricity are stored, once it is necessary to sail at full speed, all the equipment on the ship is turned on for combat, and each time the power is full, it can also intelligently meet the use of almost twelve hours.
Under normal circumstances, it would take seven days to fill all the storage tanks with the fastest storage capacity.
The fast combat support ships of the Red Guard Corps also have the ability to supply electricity, and the one-time power supply and fast charging of power can also meet the requirements of high-intensity combat of warships for two hours.
This is also a disadvantage of using magnetic power generation as the power of warships, and once this disadvantage is known to the outside world, it is very likely to be targeted.
Compared with the power of fuel, although it is super environmentally friendly, the disadvantages are also very large, almost half a catty and eight taels to choose, the trade-off between the pros and cons.
Therefore, the overall performance of the magnetic energy reactor is far from being comparable with nuclear power, and the power generation capacity of this magnetic energy reactor can only meet the requirements of combat ships below 30,000 tons.
If you want to use a magnetic reactor to drive an aircraft carrier, don't even think about it, it's completely a small horse-drawn cart, and maybe even an aircraft carrier, which can't even move.
Therefore, although the magnetic reactor is a black technology of the Red Guard Regiment Navy, in fact, it is not really able to completely crush the enemy.
But if this power plant is placed on a submarine, it is completely different.
Magnetic reactors generate electricity without any sound, which means that the submarine is underwater and can minimize noise.
At the same time, oxygen is not needed, and the magnetic reactor only needs to have magnetic induction to generate electricity, and there is a steady stream of power.
Compared with those AIP technologies, this is simply incomparable, and submarines using magnetic reactors can be completely banned from being in the sea, and it is impossible to stop the operation of nuclear reactors like nuclear-powered submarines.
Even when the storage chamber is not full, this power output can be used at a speed of less than one knot to move at a turtle speed on the seabed.
And because it does not require any oxygen for power, the endurance of the submarine underwater can also be infinitely close to the capabilities of a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.
Putting the magnetic energy reactor on the submarine is the real black technology, which can allow conventionally powered submarines to complete some tasks that only nuclear-powered submarines can complete.
It's just that it's still the same problem, magnetic-powered submarines, in many ways, still can't meet the needs of the battlefield like nuclear-powered submarines.
If it is to cooperate with the aircraft carrier battle group to carry out ocean-going operations, it is also necessary to have a nuclear-powered submarine, because the size of a magnetic-powered submarine cannot be too large, and the power provided by the magnetic energy reactor cannot provide the submarine to follow the aircraft carrier battle group and carry out long-distance rapid voyages.
The economic speed of the aircraft carrier battle group also requires at least 25 knots, which is close to the limit speed of the submarine for a conventionally powered submarine, and it is completely unable to keep up with the rhythm.
Therefore, magnetic-powered submarines cannot follow the fleet's ocean-going maneuver operations at all, and nuclear-powered aircraft carriers are still needed at this point.
However, if the magnetic-powered submarine is allowed to fight wolves in the depths of the ocean, it will be extremely suitable.
Underwater wolves, the most troublesome tactic of all the major maritime transport and supply countries in the world.
The submarine of the magnetic reactor can allow the submarine to have a endurance of up to one or two months underwater, and can also go deep into the ocean and extend out to any place to fight.
If it is combined with dolphins, it is probably only necessary to have nearly 100 submarines to control all the sea transportation routes in the entire Indian Ocean.
If there is really a war with the United States, or if the United States shows its intention to go to war, then Cai Ruichen will also use this kind of maritime wolf pack tactics to destroy the United States' maritime transportation lines as much as possible.
As for the present, there is no such need at all, and if it does, it will only make the hesitant Americans more inclined to war.
When Cai Ruichen went to the United States to deal with those Jewish conglomerates, the battle plan to control all the cities along the Israeli coast was also actively preparing.
Completely cut off all communication channels between Israel and the outside world from inside and outside, cut off all kinds of supplies, including fuel sources, and form a huge strategic encirclement on the territory of Israel and all the countries of the Middle East coalition.
Ensuring that nothing can reach Israel, so that the Israeli army can consume the war materiel without replenishment, and that Israel will have no weapons available if it wants to fight with all its people. (To be continued.) )
