Chapter 328 Chinese Flying Fish!

Four gas turbines are buzzing, driving the propeller and driving the ship to move forward quickly.

This is a Rajput class destroyer, the string d-52, and the Rana destroyer. This is the largest destroyer in the Indian Navy except aircraft carriers, and it is responsible for the air defense mission of the main force of the fleet.

The radar on the top is constantly rotating. This is an air-to-sea search radar, which will undertake the task of discovering sea and air targets from a long distance.

Intelligence shows that apart from providing several Harpoon anti-ship missiles last time, the Americans have never provided other models of anti-ship missiles, and Pakistan is even more unlikely to obtain Flying Fish missiles from France. Therefore, Pakistan can only dispatch fighter jets to bomb their own formations, and the one they most likely use is the A-7 attack aircraft, which can be attacked through the Mavericks missile.

The Mavericks claim to be able to face the sea, but the range is too close. Before they get close to launching the missile, they are already within the range of the killing of the ship-borne SA-N-1 "Goa" air defense missile. In addition, the Shanghai Harrier is enough to protect the safety of the fleet.

Now that it is already night, it is even more impossible for the Pakistanis to launch an attack, so only this Rajput-class destroyer is starting the search radar, and the rest are sailing silently.

As a new destroyer that only entered service in 1982, it has a full load displacement of nearly 5,000 tons and a length of nearly 150 meters. When controlling such a large warship, the sailors all feel a sense of pride in their hearts.

What does the Pakistan Navy have? There are not even warships with a displacement of more than 1,000 tons! There are only patrol boats and missile boats that are near the water!

The upper level of the bridge, radar room.

Having undertaken the air defense mission of the entire formation, the radar soldiers were even more vigilant and stared at the screen without blinking.

When a wave suddenly appeared, he was shocked. Is there something wrong?

Then, the waveform disappeared, and he did not ignore the waveform. At the beginning, during the Battle of the Cavaliers, the Shelffield ignored an echo, and as a result, it was hit by the flying fish missile carried by the Super Military Flag.

Is this echo that the opponent's fighter plane flew at an extremely low altitude and then suddenly pulled up?

"Alarm, alarm." Thinking of this, he immediately issued an alarm: "There may be an enemy plane flying over the ultra-low altitude!"

Alarm! The sharp alarm sounded on this warship. At the same time, the alarm reached the entire formation.

The two double-armed anti-aircraft missile launch devices began to turn rapidly, and the sa-n-1 "Goa" missile aimed at the direction where the threat appeared.

At the same time, the other two Rajiput class destroyers were also ready to launch air defense missiles. The radar was launched urgently, and the rest of the frigates, even if they only had rapid-fire guns to air, were ready.

The wind and waves blew the hull, and the Indian sailors were facing a great enemy.

The sea radar, air defense missile radar, and gun aim radar are all activated, releasing countless radar waves on the entire space.

They are waiting, waiting for the emergence of Pakistan Air Force fighter jets. Pakistan has a very strong style and actually conducts a raid at such night!

It’s not the last time, they are ready. Whenever they see Pakistani fighter jets, they will fire immediately!

The radar did not find anything, nor did it hear the unique roar of the fighter planes flying over the sea.

Is it an incorrect alarm?

The captain of the Rana looked out through the bridge's porthole, and could see nothing except the dark night.

He was about to issue annoyed order, but this was a mistake. He continued to cruise, and saw that there seemed to be a highlight on the sea in the distance?

Highlights! What is that? It is definitely not an aircraft. The tail flame of the fighter is much larger than that. Moreover, the highlight is almost on the sea. This kind of dark night, flying against the sea, is almost a quest for death.

The highlight was approaching quickly, and every hair on his body suddenly stood up. It was indeed not an airplane, but a missile flying over the sea, or a flying fish!

"Note, Feiyu Missile!" he shouted loudly, with fear in his voice, he saw more clearly, and the highlights gradually became more and more, more than one missile!

The c-802 flew over the sea at a speed of Mach 0.9, and the cruise altitude was 20 meters.

Even though the Indians discovered the carrier aircraft pulled by Rick, it was very difficult to find such missiles with long-range radars. They almost flew against the sea. Due to the influence of the curvature of the earth, it is difficult to find the carrier-based radar in the distance. Even if it gets close, the radar of Indian warships' sea search has been filtered out as clutter.

If it weren't for visual observation, there would be no trace of this missile!

At this time, the missiles flying in were already close to ten kilometers!

It was not until this distance that the tracking and guidance radar of the sa-n-1 Goa air defense missile finally locked the target of low-altitude flight. This air defense missile is a Soviet all-weather short-range ship-to-air missile weapon system, mainly used for fleet air defense to deal with various aircraft invasions of medium and low altitude subsonic and supersonic speeds. Its prototype is the land-based SA-3 surface-to-air missile.

In later practical combat, this kind of missile had mediocre achievements and made no achievements. It was not until a f-117 was later shot, which made it famous.

Now, this kind of missile is finally about to exert its power. The missile operators quickly locked the target and prepared to launch it in a double-shot volley. The probability of hitting this method is more than 90%, which is enough to intercept the anti-ship missiles flying from the opposite side.

However, at this moment, the target on the opposite side dropped its height again!

According to the scheduled procedure, the c-802 missile was lowered to a height of 5 meters on the sea surface!

5 meters! The height of the wave is two or three meters. This height is almost like dancing on the top of the wave!

The "Orange Pie Group" tracking and guidance radar took great effort to finally find the missile again from the waves, and then began to lock the target.

At this time, the missile had approached five kilometers, which was quite dangerous.

On the dual-equipped launch arm, a flame flashed, and two SA-N-1 air defense missiles broke away from the launch arm one after another, rushed towards the target, and returned to the position of the launch arm, and began to load the second missile.

However, the loading speed is very slow. More and more highlights appear on the screen of the "Orange Pie Group" tracking and guidance radar. There are actually dozens of missiles flying across the opposite side!

Two missiles quickly rush towards their target. As long as they get close to the opponent's missile, they will release more than 3,000 pieces of debris, enough to bomb the missiles on the opposite side!

And at this moment, the missile on the opposite side began to maneuver in high-speed motion.

First to the left and then to the right, the missile's trajectory became a big S-shaped one.

The last serpentine maneuver!

Originally, it was already very difficult to lock in anti-ship missiles that flew across the sea. Even if the missiles on the opposite side flew smoothly, it was enough for the air defense missiles on the ship to work hard. Now, this kind of anti-ship missiles are engaged in high-maneuverable flights across the sea. Suddenly, the "Orange Pie Group" tracking guidance radar lost its target information again.

The two air defense missiles fired were also turned into rockets because the radar lost their target and did not act as an interception function. However, the missile continued to fly in quickly!

The adgm-630 6-tube 30mm close-defense gun on the side begins to make the final defense.

Medium-range relies on ship-based air defense missiles, but at this short range, we can only rely on rapid-fire guns.

The Soviet Union has always advocated firepower and used dense bomb rain for the last layer of defense!

This is a Gatling principle artillery with a 30mm caliber. As long as one hit, it will make a big hole in the anti-ship missile. Its launch rate is as high as 3,000 rounds per minute. When it starts to start, with the buzzing of current and the dense rain of bullets, it covers all ranges!

This is their last chance! The rain of bullets from the near-defense guns poured into the direction of the missiles flying, forming a rain of death. Any anti-ship missile that wants to break through this layer of bullet rain will be ruthlessly hit!

The flying missile continued to maneuver, but under the attack of two close-defense guns, the missile suddenly hit a shell and fell into the sea!

Although they may not be sure to defend against supersonic anti-ship missiles, they can still shoot down subsonic anti-ship missiles!

However, even though the missile was shot down, the sailors of the Rana did not cheer, and the second anti-ship missile had already flew over!

This missile flew closer! Because they only focused on intercepting the first missile, they did not care about this second one! Now, the opponent has entered the final attack stage!

The captain on the bridge can even see the increasingly larger outline with his naked eyes!

The 6-barrel 30mm close-defense gun continued to roar and shot out the barrage, but in just a few seconds, the buzzing current of the close-defense gun suddenly weakened, and there was no flame at the muzzle.

Two thousand rounds of bombs were prepared, which was not enough for one minute to shoot! Now, all the shells inside had been used up and had to be reloaded!

It's too late!

The 165-kg half-armor-piercing warhead pierced into the area above the waterline of the Rana. The c-802 anti-ship missile is enough to penetrate steel plates with reinforced ribs. Unless it is a battleship, it can easily tear the side of any active ship.

When the warhead kissed the steel plate of the ship, the huge collision sound amplified in the cabin inside the destroyer. The roar was the death bell that sounded to the warship!
