.The battle between the "Sea Dragon" and the "Hampton".

Push this small-scale naval battle to a climax.

This confrontation between conventional submarines and attack nuclear submarines has also been written into submarine tactics textbooks, becoming the "Bible" that many conventional submarine captains worship in the future.

As for Wang Yuhan, who wrote this miracle, he surpassed Safimo.

Given the situation at that time, if it were someone else, it would be very likely that he would head-on towards the Hamptons and launch an attack as soon as possible to buy time to avoid anti-submarine helicopters.

In theory, there is nothing wrong with doing this.

In the case of serious unfavorable situation.

Unless you do not intend to leave alive, you must shorten the battle time as much as possible and strive for more favorable retreat conditions.

You should know that except for a few submarines, no submarine can attack anti-submarine helicopters in the sky.

From a tactical perspective, you must first kill the attack nuclear submarine and succeed as soon as possible.

However, Wang Yuhan did not do this, but asked the number (1 Haiser., to stop.

His choice is not based on theory 1 but on intuition.

More than ten minutes later, two sh-60s flew from the south arrived at the sea area where the "Sea Snake" was located. One of them lowered the hanging sonar at hovering height.

The other aircraft continued to fly forward and lowered the suspended sonar about three nautical miles away from the Sea Snake.

Wang Yuhan has a very keen intuition and is surprisingly lucky.

Of course, it's not entirely luck.

If it was not two or four who arrived at that time, Wang Yuhan's tactics would definitely end in failure. It was because he knew that there were only two or two called sh-60s that other anti-submarine helicopters in the amphibious assault fleet could not arrive in time, so Wang Yuhan dared to do so.

His basis is that two sh-60s cannot pinch the entire sea area.

Anti-submarine helicopters are not anti-submarine patrol aircraft.

Due to various performance limitations such as carrying capacity, range, and flight speed, the combat effectiveness of anti-submarine helicopters is far inferior to that of anti-submarine patrol aircraft. During the Cold War period.

In order to deal with the huge submarine force of the Red Navy, the US military also specially developed the S-3 carrier-based anti-submarine patrol aircraft to enhance the fleet's long-range anti-submarine capabilities. It was not until the end of the Cold War that the US Navy's S-3 gradually retired.

Take the sh-60 as an example. Although its comprehensive anti-submarine combat capability is considered advanced worldwide, it still has many technical defects. When performing anti-submarine missions, a sh-60 can carry up to two torpedoes.

Instead of carrying four torpedoes according to the theoretical limit.

It is to carry more fuel and improve the range and patrol time.

In terms of subsubmarine exploration methods, anti-submarine helicopters mainly rely on suspended sonar rather than sonar buoys.

Under normal circumstances, the sh-60 can only carry a set of twenty-four sonar buoys at most. Because under normal circumstances, anti-submarine helicopters do not fight alone.

Anti-submarine warships and submarines will be cooperated with, so when searching for submarines, the sh-60 uses sonar buoys, but uses suspended sonar buoys according to the information provided by other anti-submarine forces. Only in special cases will the sonar buoys be used.

Obviously.

The US military encountered a special situation this time.

The problem is that the number of sonar buoys limits the pinching ability of the sh-60.

If it is a P-3C, it can use more than 200 sonar buoys to carry to search for thousands of square kilometers of sea areas, while a sh-60 can only use sonar buoys to search for hundreds of square kilometers of sea areas.

If there is accurate information, this search range is enough to find a submarine.

Unfortunately, one or two sh-60s did not obtain accurate information

In order to improve the efficiency of the cable.

Two helicopters had to use sonar buoys in the initial stages.

Try to shorten the time to search the outer sea area, determine the approximate range of searches, and allow other anti-submarine helicopters to search accurately, and finally find the submarine port that launched the torpedo.

That's exactly that.

Arriving unprecedentedly on the "Sea Dragon", the two sh-60s used up their sonar buoys.

More importantly, because the amphibious assault fleet has dispatched more anti-submarine helicopters, the main mission of these two sh-60s is not to find submarines.

Instead, we divide the search area for other anti-submarine helicopters and determine the risk level for the sea areas where the zip is needed.

Affected by this.

When using suspended sonar pinch submarine.

Instead of using active mode, passive mode is used.

In passive mode, the detection range of the relay sonar is larger, which can roughly determine whether there are high-speed submarines in the search area.

However, in passive mode, it is difficult to spot a lurking submarine.

Obviously, the US anti-submarine officers and soldiers underestimated the determination and courage of Chinese submarine officers and soldiers.

Normally, when the enemy's anti-submarine force crickets are coming, the submarine that has been ambushed will escape at high speed instead of staying in the waters where torpedoes are fired and waiting for the enemy to come.

"Sea Dragon, not only did not escape, but also prepared to do another battle.

If Wang Yuhan made another choice instead of staying to fight side by side with Safimo, I'm afraid the "Sea Dragon" had been discovered by the US military.

While waiting for the US anti-submarine helicopter to fly away with fear, Wang Yuhan also got a better opportunity to attack.

The Hampton did not stop, but continued to sail southwest. The route of the Hampton was slightly deviated southward.

It's about ten degrees.

Obviously, the US captain believes that the Chinese submarine that successfully attacked the sneak attack will be the southeast.

It must be admitted that Wang Yuhan's luck is indeed good.

Because when sailing northeast, the Hampton passed between the Sea Snake and the amphibious assault fleet, when the Hampton deviated ten degrees southward, the bow of the boat was facing the Sea Snake, which quickly shortened the distance between the two submarines.

Strictly speaking, the US military captain’s choice is not wrong.

As long as we seize the opportunity, the "Hampton" safety can seize the lead with its performance advantages of attacking nuclear submarines and anti-submarine torpedoes with a longer range.

Unfortunately, the US captain did not seize the opportunity.

It is probably believed that the "Sea Snake" would escape after a sneak attack and would pay close attention to the surrounding situation, so the "Hampton" was turning.

Instead of using active attack sonar, we put all our hopes on passive sonar.

And it's just a passive sonar array on the side

Of course, the US captain may also believe that anti-submarine helicopters can drive enemy boats over.

Let him attack.

Obviously, only using passive sonar will definitely not be able to detect the stationary "Sea Snake" in time.

The problem is, "Hampton, did not reduce the speed to below eight knots, so the noise emitted is still very obvious and is easily discovered by the other party.

It is in this case that the sea snake. The number is first to attack.

Wang Yuhan was also very bold when he was not in the attack battle.

Even a bit cruel.

Within two minutes, the "Sea Snake" was released from its own navigation.

Four 533mm torpedoes were launched. Because the performance of the 533mm torpedo is not excellent, the maximum speed is only 55 knots and the range is only more than 20 kilometers. It seems a bit overwhelming to attack nuclear submarines twenty kilometers away, so Wang Yuhan asked all of these four torpedoes to launch attacks with inertial self-guided methods.

After launching the torpedo, Wang Yuhan did a very important thing: let the "Sea Snake" sail eastward at a speed of four knots.

This is not to shorten the distance 1 but to release drag-and-drop sonar.

In order to keep it hidden, Wang Yuhan did not use active attack sonar.

You can only rely entirely on passive sonar. Because the line of the side sonar array of the "Sea Snake" is very limited, the detection distance and detection accuracy are far inferior to that of the attack nuclear submarine, drag-and-drop sonar must be used.

To make drag-and-drop sonar work.

In addition to allowing the submarine to sail at a low speed, the submarine's course must also be kept at an angle with the target's course.

If the courses of the two submarines coincide.

Drag-and-drop sonar is just a decoration.

After adjusting the course, Wang Yuhan asked the "Sea Snake" to launch two 650 mm heavy torpedoes.

And all use wire guide mode.

The 650 mm heavy torpedo is faster.

The performance is also more advanced.

Now, Wang Yuhan's tactics are reflected.

According to the interval between launching two batches of torpedoes, four 533 mm torpedoes will be the first to approach the enemy boat and enter the acoustic self-guided attack stage first. Although at this time, the distance that the four torpedoes can still navigate will be very limited. As long as the US submarine turns to avoid it in time, it will escape, but the US submarine will definitely not know the status of the four torpedoes.

It will also avoid it as fast as possible and release interference bombs and bait bombs. In this way.

The US submarine will make a lot of noise, and the "Sea Snake" can take the opportunity to guide the torpedo and approach the US submarine as much as possible. After the US submarine uses all the interference and deception methods.

Let the torpedoes attack independently.

If the situation is ideal, the torpedo will hit Hampton before the "Sea Snake" cuts the wire.
