MTL - Big Time 1958-v2 Chapter 1030 Look at us being bullied?
The multifunctional phased array radar subsystem first detected a large number of cruise missiles coming from the northeast, and tracked targets within 400 kilometers after the phased array antenna, signal processor, and integration.
However, the calculation results immediately showed that these cruise missiles were not aimed at the US Navy, even if it was a Soviet saturation attack. For a moment, Richard Cooper thought that the most important system of the US Navy was wrong, although this Almost impossible, in the face of a cruise missile attack, Richard Cooper ordered a second calculation.
Unlike anti-ship missiles, cruise missiles generally do not pursue ultra-high speed, so the US Navy has sufficient time to respond. But without a second chance, these kh55 cruise missiles just skipped the edge of the monitoring range of the Aegis radar system and disappeared quickly. In fact, only the USS Midway and the USS Kennedy detected a large number of missile attacks. After a shared notification the entire U.S. Navy.
The route of the cruise missiles launched by the Soviet backfire bomber group just skipped the edge of the detection range of the US aircraft carrier battle group. It was hard to find out that the fleeting threat not only did not make the US Navy relieved, but it became even more tense.
The various aircraft carrier battle groups are keeping in touch, because both the Midway and Kennedy found these missiles, so the failure of the Aegis system was ruled out. Could it be that a computer virus is planted, but there must be a chance. This possibility is not high. "Could it be that the Soviets scare us and prove that they have the ability to send us to the bottom of the sea?"
"If so, isn't the investment of the Soviets a little bigger, and the cost of so many missiles is not small?"
"The Aegis system continues to be on alert. Our main purpose is to provide land support. The attack of the Soviet tank army is very fierce, and the land needs our support." When the U.S. reloaded Seventh Army was under great pressure, the U.S. Navy also gave support. It would be a big joke if the support was interrupted by this threat to pee his pants.
The Soviet backfire bomber group did not leave the airspace of Afghanistan at all. At this time, it had already flown back to Uzbekistan. On the ocean, the British Royal Navy sailed leisurely, compared to the US Navy, which was busy with taking off and landing carrier-based aircraft because of support for land operations. The Royal Navy, whose radius cannot support land, is much more leisurely.
The Royal Navy does not have the Aegis system, but because it was attacked by the Soviet Granite anti-ship missiles in the Falklands War, the Royal Navy is far beyond this range this time and will never take a step forward. Mainly do some warning and anti-submarine functions, which is also what the Royal Navy is good at. The Japanese Navy is the anti-submarine group of the Seventh Fleet, and the British Royal Navy plays a similar role in a certain sense.
This kind of joke itself shows that the current role of the British and Japanese navies, the two navies are the strongest in anti-submarine, followed by air defense. The anti-ship capability is the weakest, and the Soviet Red Navy is completely the opposite, anti-ship, air defense and anti-submarine. After all, the most professional anti-submarine warfare is submarines. The Soviet Union does not lack submarines, and submarines are used to deal with submarines.
The Royal Navy, which does not have the Aegis system installed, has not yet sensed the imminent danger. The U.S. Navy forgot to notify the Allies for a while because it also needed to support land operations.
870 kilometers southeast of the Arabian Sea, the Royal Navy in this area is still conducting routine tasks, searching for submarines of the Soviet Red Navy, and reporting the safety information to the U.S. Navy. In fact, the relationship between Britain and India has always been very good, so the waters close to the Indian side are still very safe.
In fact, with the absolute land superiority of the Soviet Union in Eurasia, if it enters the airspace of India to attack, the Royal Navy can hardly escape, but there are many things to consider, the relationship between the Soviet Union and India, and the relationship between India and the United Kingdom. , India, as a Soviet ally of a non-socialist country, the Soviet Union must take into account the feelings of the other party. For ordinary countries, India is still a big country, and there are only a few countries stronger than India.
The kh55 cruise missile flying at subsonic speed is still slowly approaching the target. In fact, it was discovered by Aegis that it was beyond the expectations of the Soviet naval aviation. This time Serov came to the Royal Navy.
At this time, the Royal Navy's air defense force was still the Sheffield-class destroyer in the Falklands War. Although the United Kingdom had a plan to upgrade its air defense system after the Falklands War, it only existed in the demonstration stage because of its lack of money. .
Officially, knowing this situation, the Soviet Union is also preparing to use cruise missiles against the Royal Navy this time.
"We have tested this sea area, and there will be no Soviet nuclear submarines." The captain's room of the light aircraft carrier Ark Royal is a very pleasant environment compared to the US Navy, which is hundreds of kilometers away for air support and alerts for Soviet attacks. Very laid back, warm Indian Ocean waters.
"Then tell the Americans about the situation. I don't understand why the Americans are confronting the Soviet Union on land. Especially when the two countries are in direct war, the whole world is in danger of a nuclear war." Another voice said with some concern, "I don't want to put our country in because of a Kuwait."
This gentleman thought this was very reasonable, and Serov also wanted to know if the United States would be desperate for a British naval fleet to fight against the Soviet Union on the premise that the Soviet Union did not attack the British mainland. He thought it would not, so the operation began.
Escorting the Royal Ark are the Sheffield-class destroyers Liverpool and Southampton. After the Falklands War, the Sheffield-class destroyers were replaced with the American Phalanx system, which includes warning radar, tracking radar, artillery, and electronic computers. and control panel. The two radars can be used together to determine the target position with a reflection area of one-tenth of a square meter within five kilometers, and calculate its motion parameters. At the same time, it can also monitor the flight trajectory of its own shells and automatically correct the shooting parameters.
The destroyer Liverpool, a large number of signals suddenly appeared on the radar, and then an alarm was issued. The officers in the radar room took a breath of air when they saw this situation, because unlike the high-ballistic anti-ship missiles, the cruise missiles flew at a very low altitude. It's easy to find, but it's often too late to find out.
"Enemy attack! A large number of cruise missiles are flying towards us!" The destroyer Liverpool, regardless of discipline, directly used the most effective method to contact the Ark Royal air defense carrier and prepare for the challenge.
"There are so many, Aster anti-aircraft missiles are launched, and each ship is in a state of war!" The Royal Navy commander of the Royal Ark was also shocked. Why did he come to the United Kingdom? This question was only fleeting, and there was no time for him to think about it. If he wasted a second, the hope of all the British troops entering the ocean to feed the fish increased.
Although he was shocked by the large number of cruise missile attacks, he quickly moved into action with the help of well-trained sailors and the British Royal Navy's air defense system. Under the guidance of three phased array radars, the Aster anti-aircraft missile took off and flew towards the kh55 cruise missile that fell like a meteor.
The entire British Royal Navy's long-range and short-range air defense systems have all entered the work, and the incoming attack has been directed at the British fleet from all angles, but the Royal Navy is unwilling to accept the fate of feeding the fish. Intercepted and turned into brilliant fireworks in the sky.
Finally, the first missile that successfully penetrated the defense flew to the Liverpool. The "Phalanx" close-in defense system tried its best to strafe, but the sea-skimming missiles snaked and hit the port side of the Liverpool. The high-explosive charge ripped apart the fragile deck of the Liverpool in an instant, and fragments of the Liverpool in flames flew across one of them for several kilometers and landed next to the Southampton.
is followed by the destroyer Southampton. The incoming kh55 cruise missile hit its middle part, detonating the anti-ship missile on the ship and causing a big explosion. The Aster anti-aircraft missiles that are about to sink are rapidly launched, and even before silence, they must try to resolve these threats as much as possible.
After killing two Sheffield-class destroyers, before the Royal Navy could breathe a sigh of relief, the second batch of cruise missiles appeared on the radar, "Soviet style, saturation attack." The captain of the Ark Royal took a bitter note. With a smile, he said, as the captain, he was going to sink with his warship this time.
The entire sea area was covered with oil pollution, burning fuel, and of course the Royal Navy soldiers who fell into the water and struggled, but there was no warship that still existed. The Royal Navy's Aster anti-aircraft missiles and Phalanx persisted until the last moment, from the interception success rate to the scene. The responses were all flawless, only one small problem was that there were more cruise missiles coming in than their fleet's anti-aircraft missiles, and the Royal Navy didn't have enough anti-aircraft missiles.
Not long after, the search and rescue ship of the Indian Navy appeared in the waters. After destroying the British Royal Navy, in the spirit of humanitarianism, the Soviet Union notified the nearest India and asked India to rescue these gentlemen who have become scumbags.
"Comrade Stalin once said that quantity itself is a quality, and we must realize that 400 nuclear bombs and 40,000 nuclear bombs are completely different, the former the United States can despise our dignity, the latter we can get their respect. "Sherov, who learned that the Royal Navy said goodbye, began to pretend, if he hadn't fallen to the ground, he could have gone to the sky...
"The United Kingdom does not rule out large-scale retaliation. Mrs Thatcher said that she is considering whether to declare war on us?" Gromyko brought back the latest news. The whole United Kingdom was excited, and the government's position was also very strong.
"Why didn't they destroy Argentina?" Serov hummed, "Maybe they think the Soviet Union is easy to bully?"
