Chapter eight hundred and seventy fourth suspicious voice
wThe Soviet Navy still wants to control the Iraqi navy? Then stop dreaming. At that time, it may be the time for the Soviet Navy to help them "handle" behind-the-scenes warships.
Although Kusai's time travel has led to a change in the world pattern, and Kusai needs to delay the disintegration of the Soviet Union based on his own interests, Kusai knows that the fate of the disintegration of the Soviet Union is destined. He does not want to go against the will of heaven, even if Iraq fully supports the Soviet Union, it cannot be stopped.
Now, who would have thought that the powerful Soviet Union would suddenly collapse? Only Kusai has the prophet.
The construction cycle of the modern and fearless class is even shorter. If it was put into service from 1988 to 1998, the Soviet Union would send hundreds of naval personnel to help the Iraqi Navy get familiar with the operation. By one to two years, the Iraqi Navy would become familiar with the operation. I am afraid that by then, they would not be willing to return to the Soviet Union. Stay in Iraq and join the Iraqi Navy, which might be their better choice.
This is Kusai’s plan.
However, Kusai cannot explain these words to his confidants now, because if Kusai said that the Soviet Union was about to collapse, who would believe it?
However, they have always firmly supported Kusai's decision.
"President Kusai, our current navy has only more than 2,000 tons of frigates. Now, it has grown to 8,000 tons or even 50,000 tons. Isn't it a bit aggressive?" asked Hickmat. Although Hickmat was not a soldier, he still considered this.
"We are not making a rash progress now, but we are too slow." Kusai said: "We in Iraq have important maritime oil trade to protect, and in the future there are various other trades through maritime. Our navy must be able to protect our maritime interests and must vigorously develop the navy. However, the construction of the navy is not achieved overnight, especially the construction of warships. It takes a long cycle, so we need to move forward bravely and vigorously."
It is getting late now. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, even if Iraqi funds were injected, the construction of the Black Sea Shipyard was maintained. However, those supporting factories were already ruined. God knows how long it would take for Iraq to order such large warships. Later generations, Ah San modified the old aircraft carrier from the Soviet Union. Not only did the cycle last several times, but the cost was increased a few times, which was even more expensive than building a new one. Although there were reasons for the Russians asking for a harsh price, it was also closely related to the serious loss of technical equipment in the shipyard itself.
Therefore, the more you order, the more problems you will face. Iraq is now vigorously developing its own shipbuilding industry, but by the time it has the ability to build aircraft carriers, it is probably the 21st century, and the Iraqi Navy will not wait for that time.
"Our current economy may still seem a little nervous if we want to support the aircraft carrier formation, especially we are not prepared to purchase the aircraft carrier budget." Shikmat said. Iraq is rich in oil. The treasury is also abundant now. However, the Iraqi government has invested a lot of funds in domestic economic and industrial construction. Especially after northern Iran announced its obedience to the new government, under the application of the Iranian government, Iraq provided a large amount of funds to these regions to prepare to develop the economy here, with the focus on agriculture, increasing agricultural output, building it into a granary, and solving the food shortage in the Middle East. Moreover, this is also of great benefit to people's support.
Therefore, Iraq's funds are a little tight now, and it may be more abundant in another year or two.
"We are ordering now, and we only need to pay a deposit. By the time we add ourselves later, we have an opportunity to get rich unexpectedly and get enough funds." Kusai said.
The days of the yen crisis are getting closer and closer, and Kusai is very sure. From this, he makes a big profit, and five aircraft carrier formations are enough.
"If we only order these warships now, it will not play a role in improving our combat effectiveness. In particular, our heavy-load cruiser, without a large number of protective warships, is very dangerous. In particular, we do not have comprehensive air defense warships like the Kirov-class, and we do not have nuclear submarines to eliminate danger underwater. We still do not have the ability to use such large warships." Deputy Commander Karim expressed his concerns.
Although the Iraqi navy is still relatively weak now, Iraq already has first-class naval academies. All naval personnel need formal training from the academies. With Western instructors, their vision is very high. They are all familiar with the highest level of the navy. The US aircraft carrier formation is actually what they yearn for, especially the Aegis warships that the United States has begun to serve, and have strong anti-saturation strike capabilities.
Only aircraft carriers, plus two large destroyers, cannot guarantee the safety of aircraft carriers at all. Even if it is the existing Iraqi frigates and all missile boats, it is not enough.
"Yes, we do not have a dedicated air defense ship and a nuclear submarine. What we need to do now is to cultivate our personnel, cultivate our navy's ability to operate these warships and the ability to operate ocean-going navigation operations, and prepare for our navy to receive more warships. In particular, we only ordered the Su-25. Although this aircraft has not strong air combat capabilities, it can cultivate our precious carrier-based aircraft pilots. Although we use catapults, the risk of pilots taking off is small, but the risk of landing is still very high." Kusai said.
Later, by taking over good things from the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the personnel still had to be Iraq as the main body. It would definitely not be a overnight success. Now, even the Soviet Union does not have a qualified carrier-based aviation force, especially the only planes that can be boarded by the Soviet Union may have only the Jacques-38, and the Su-27 has just been finalized. The Su-27k (ship-based model) is probably still under experimentation. This is also the reason why Kusai did not mention the Su-27k to the Soviets that the carrier-based aircraft used the Su-27k. In later generations, the only Kuznetsov aircraft carrier, the main trainer aircraft on it, was the Su-25.
Nuclear-powered submarines and large air defense destroyers with four-sided phased array radars are all necessary. Kusai looked at the excited people around him. The current price has been issued to the Soviet Union. I wonder if they will accept it? Kusai felt that the bait going south was very large.
…………
"The report, the sonar room found that there was a faint propeller noise a hundred nautical miles away from us, which was suspected to be an aircraft carrier formation." Colonel Yerofu received the report in the command room.
As the latest nuclear submarine built by the Soviet Union, in addition to its excellent silent ability, the Oscar 2 also has excellent detection capabilities. Thanks to the huge hull, its three large-sized passive array sonars on the side can be separated by a long distance, which can improve the detection distance and accuracy. The passive "shark rib" side array sonar used by the Oscar 2 is even better than the passive sonar of the attack nuclear submarines in the Soviet Union.
In later generations, the British "Simplified Defense Yearbook 2006" evaluated the 949a class as: "The Oscar Class 2 can not only eliminate the aircraft carrier fleet, but also smooth out the submarines in this area."
The main mission of the Oscar Class 2 nuclear submarine is to destroy the American aircraft carriers, but it is absolutely not afraid of enemy attack nuclear submarines. The Oscar class is the quietest ocean-going offensive submarine in the world before the emergence of the Acura class "Cheatah" and the American Sea Wolf class.
Although the sonar of Oscar 2 is very good, if you want to discover warships a hundred nautical miles away, you can only obtain them under good hydrological conditions. They only detected the approximate direction and signal. What exactly is it, it is not sure.
"Two cars, advance two, left rudder three, ready to release the drag line array sonar." Colonel Yerofu gave the next order.
For submarines, in addition to using passive array sonar with the side strings of the boat, you can also use dragline array sonar.
As the name suggests, the tow array sonar is to release the sonar using wires and release it to a few hundred meters behind the submarine. In this way, the disadvantages of ordinary sonar are avoided. First, the space is limited, especially the space that accommodates the sonar array, which restricts the improvement of the performance of traditional sonar; second, the interference of noise from the submarine itself will also affect the detection performance of sonar.
Therefore, advanced submarines carry passive towed array sonar, which is used to detect, calibrate, track and type identification of submarines and surface ships.
With Ye Ruofu's order above, the rudder surface of the tail of the Oscar 2 submarine began to move and turned to the roughly detected direction. At the same time, a tubular structure opened the hydraulic gland on the rudder fin of the submarine's podium shell.
Facing the side of the submarine at the source of the sound can achieve the best results.
"Go forward and release the shark's tail." Colonel Yeruofu ordered. The shark's tail is the name of this drag array sonar.
A bubble suddenly appeared in the dark sea water. With the bubbles, a towed sonar array was thrown out. Then, due to the resistance of the sea water, it left the submarine and landed at the back of the submarine, getting farther and farther away.
Suddenly, the sonar soldier felt that the sound of the earphones in his ears became clearer. He carefully judged and compared.
The most important thing about sonar soldiers is their own ears. They have to conduct a lot of training every year to hear the tonnage and even model of the other party's ship from their voices.
The biggest sound, estimated to be around 100,000 tons, and there is a faint sound around it, which may be an escort ship. Then, it is very likely that this is an aircraft carrier formation!
