Rebirth of science and technology academic master - Chapter 709

c703 Ghost of the Deep

Deep in the Pacific Ocean, an American Los Angeles attack nuclear submarine is swimming freely in the depths of the sea.

The Los Angeles attack nuclear submarine is a fast attack nuclear submarine of the U.S. Navy. It belongs to the fifth generation of attack nuclear submarines. It has been the core force of the U.S. Navy’s attack nuclear submarines in the past 40 years. It is also the largest number of nuclear attack submarines ever built in the history of the U.S. Navy and the world. The largest number of nuclear submarines, their main tasks are anti-ship, anti-submarine and escorting aircraft carrier battle groups.

Although the Los Angeles attack nuclear submarine began to be developed in 1960, the first ship was built and put into service in 1976, and the last one was built in 1996. A total of 62 ships were built, 32 were retired, and 30 are still in service. It seems that it is almost a year old. It is an old thing of the century, but it is still among the most advanced submarines outside China.

Such a nuclear submarine is 110.3 meters long, 9.9 meters wide, has a surface displacement of 6080 tons and an underwater displacement of 6927 tons. It has a speed of 30 to 32 knots, a diving depth of 450 to 530 meters, an endurance of 400,000 nautical miles, and can carry 4 “capture weapons”. “Whale” missiles, 8 “Tomahawk” missiles and 12 anti-submarine torpedoes are definitely killer weapons. It is not an exaggeration to say that a Los Angeles submarine can destroy a small country.

Of course, the Los Angeles nuclear submarine is not the most powerful nuclear submarine in the United States, but the latest generation of nuclear submarines, the “Columbia-class strategic nuclear submarine.” The Columbia-class strategic nuclear submarine is the world’s largest nuclear submarine, with a length of 171 meters, a width of 13 meters, and a maximum displacement of 20,810 tons. It has developed hypersonic weapons, cruise missiles and special weapons, and adopted unique stealth technology. Of course, there is only one Columbia-class strategic nuclear submarine in service, and there are no plans to build it again because it is too expensive. The cost of building one is as high as 15 billion U.S. dollars. It is really It can never be built again.

“Nate, we have reached Guam, do we still need to move forward? According to regulations, we should not move forward any further!” Private James hesitated for a moment. In order to avoid misunderstandings, starting from 2030, the Guam military base will no longer be Offensive weapons are deployed, and ships with offensive capabilities such as aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines are no longer close to Guam.

“What are you afraid of? We are underwater ships, not surface ships that are easy to detect.” Nate curled his lips and said: “Those old men are just afraid of death. They can’t do this or that. Our navy is almost exhausted. What’s the point of rowing in the sea? Shit, shit! I heard that in Tokyo, Japanese girls used to be passionate, obedient and well-behaved, but now we can no longer experience that beauty!”

This Los Angeles nuclear submarine has a staff of 133 people, including 120 soldiers and 13 officers. All of them are elites of the Navy who can serve on the Los Angeles nuclear submarine. No one had a problem with crossing Guam.

They have been exploring the world’s oceans for hundreds of years and have already mastered very rich and accurate marine data. They belong to the back garden and their private plot.

As for regulations, they are regulations, and who will take care of them? The officers and soldiers of the frontline troops have always hated those old men. They not only reduced the army but also reduced military expenditures, making life difficult for everyone.

In their view, there should not be any rule across the ocean or across the sea. This is the territory they have already occupied. Why give it away? If you want to seize the territory, then have a fight. The winner will occupy the territory. The loser leaves obediently.

At the same time, 1,000 meters under the Pacific Ocean, a submarine that was much smaller than the Los Angeles nuclear submarine was cruising at high speed. Judging from the sonar, this submarine was not a nuclear submarine. Nuclear submarines need reactors, so they are not much smaller. This submarine makes very little noise, about 3,000 tons, but its speed reaches 35 knots.

This is China’s most advanced titanium submarine. Titanium is used instead of steel, making it not afraid of magnetic attack mines. More importantly, its diving depth has reached an exaggerated level. It can dive to 4,500 meters. No matter how good the stealth performance is, It is not as deep as the diving depth. No matter what kind of mine is at such a deep depth, it cannot attack it because the mine cannot dive to this depth.

This is where you can attack others, but others cannot attack you, and you are naturally invincible.

As early as the birth of lithium-air batteries, China no longer developed nuclear submarines, but conventional submarines. Nuclear submarines have the advantage of endurance, but they also have great disadvantages, such as high cost of use, large size, loud noise and easy detection. When equipped with a lithium-air battery, there is no need to use uranium fuel, the noise is very small, and the sonar detection is not large. You only need to charge or replace the lithium-air battery pack.

Although lithium-air batteries have been around for 20 years, they are still only controlled by China. Large lithium-air battery packs are never exported to prevent them from being used in military equipment.

Of course, the Chinese Navy also plans to build one or two nuclear submarines, but they will not use fission reactors, but fusion reactors. In this case, the endurance will be almost unlimited and the cost of use will be lower.

“Report, there is a nuclear submarine detected in the front. According to the judgment, it should be the Los Angeles nuclear submarine!” Zhang Ming, who was in charge of the investigation, discovered something unusual and reported it immediately.

“Boom~~”

“Damn, what’s going on, what’s going on!” The captain of the Los Angeles nuclear submarine, Rickovich, felt the submarine shaking violently, and his face changed drastically.

“Your Majesty Commander, no good, we were attacked by a mine!” James reported, his voice panicked.

“Who attacked us? Have you found the target?” Rickovich asked. If attacked by a mine, then at a depth of 450 meters, it is basically a dead end, and if you want to die, you must die with the enemy.

“Report to your Excellency Commander, no discovery!” James reported.

“Boom~~”

At this moment, there was another huge explosion, and then a big hole was blown open in the Los Angeles nuclear submarine. Seawater poured in crazily, and all 133 officers and soldiers in the submarine were submerged.

At the same time, the Pentagon received the news that a Los Angeles nuclear submarine had lost contact, and was immediately shocked. You must know that this is a nuclear submarine, which is not trivial. It is equipped with nuclear weapons. If something happens and the nuclear weapons explode, it will definitely bear the consequences. Due to the unbearable pain, the Pentagon quickly set up an investigation team to conduct an investigation. At the same time, military bases in various places began to try to contact the Los Angeles nuclear submarine.

At this time, 1,000 meters underwater in the Pacific Ocean, a submarine was moving forward like a ghost, as if nothing had happened, as if it didn’t know anything.

It is difficult to detect under such deep water.

Inside the submarine, the officers and soldiers were drinking drinks and celebrating. It was obvious that today was an extraordinary day and worthy of a celebration. It happened to be the birthday of a soldier in the submarine, so it was just a birthday gift.
