Chapter 637 Deep Sea Ghost
Deep in the Pacific Ocean, a US Army Los Angeles-class attack nuclear submarine is swimming freely in the depths of the sea. This behemoth is 110.3 meters long, 10.1 meters wide, and has an underwater displacement of 6,927 tons. It can run 32 knots underwater.
Speed! In this sea area, not many submarines can catch up with it!
"Lieutenant Colonel Grant! We are already approaching Chinese waters! Do we want to continue moving forward?" Private First Class George Carlson walked up to Brian Grant, the captain of the submarine, and asked.
"Keep going!" Lieutenant Colonel Grant replied lazily. He was currently thinking about how to spend his vacation that was coming in three days. He really missed the coquettish women in the bar outside the Neon Naval Base! But
It doesn't seem good to be too proactive. It still smells like the female high school student who was forcibly dragged away with Billy last time! Especially the expression on her face as she cried helplessly under him, it really made people's blood boil!
"But captain! Will we encounter a Chinese submarine?" George Carlson, who was newly assigned to the submarine, hesitated and asked.
"George! You were transferred here from the European Theater of Operations, right?" After receiving a positive reply, Captain Grant patiently explained, "You often had to confront Lucia's submarines in the European Theater of Operations, so you should be more vigilant!
After all, Lucia’s submarines have superior performance, and their captains are crazy!”
"But China is different! Look at our current location! It's still very far away from China's coastline! So don't worry about their air strikes and surface ships! All we need to pay attention to is submarines!" At this point, the Grant boat
Chang shrugged, "But because of the distance
It’s too far away. Their conventional submarines are unlikely to appear in this area, and their nuclear submarines are famous for being noisy! We will definitely detect them before they find us! Our speed is much faster than China’s
Submarine, it’s totally too late to run away by then!”
The veterans of this submarine nonchalantly followed the captain's instructions and crashed into China's territorial waters. It seemed that they had done this kind of thing before.
"Young man, you have a good butt!" Submarine Executive Officer Major Billy Herrington came over and patted George's butt, then hooked his neck and said. "Welcome from the Atlantic to the Pacific! I have lived here for a long time.
You will find that life is much easier than in the Atlantic Ocean! The opponents here are completely on the same level as those in the Atlantic Ocean!"
I hope so! The officers were so relaxed, and George's anxious heart slowly relaxed. Yes, China's conventional submarines could not reach here, and the noise of nuclear submarines was too loud, so what did he have to worry about?
The submarine moved forward slowly, and the sonar soldiers listened to the signals returned by the sonar as required. As usual, there was nothing except the original sounds from the depths of the sea.
"Look! Young man! This is the life of the American Navy in the Pacific! It's as leisurely and comfortable as a sponge in the Pacific Ocean, without any rough waves like the Atlantic Ocean!" Billy patted his butt again.
Major Herrington is really a good man, handsome, strong and friendly. Of course, it would be great if he didn't like to pat my butt so much! It seems that his service career in the Pacific Ocean will be very fruitful! George
Start fantasizing about your happy life in the future.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise in the sonar soldier's ears! The experienced face suddenly darkened, and he shouted in a trembling voice, "Lieutenant Colonel Grant! We are locked by active sonar! I heard the active sonar signal impact
Sound on the hull of the submarine! What do we do now?”
The active sonar signal hits the hull of the submarine, which is like a fighter jet being locked on by the enemy's fire control radar. On the battlefield, this means that it is not far away from being destroyed!
"Damn it! Did you put your ear on that ****'s bed in Tokyo?" Lieutenant Colonel Grant couldn't help scolding, "Report the enemy's position, distance and model!"
"Lieutenant Colonel, our sonar did not detect the enemy's signal!" The sonar soldier was sweating like rain. There is nothing more terrifying on the battlefield than the enemy discovering himself but not himself!
"This is impossible! The noise of China's nuclear submarines can never escape our sonar!" Captain Grant rescued the sonar soldier from his seat. He was operating quickly, but apart from the regular sonar collision sounds, he
, there are no abnormal signals!
"Damn it, does he want to force us out of the water?" In the current international environment, no country will rashly sink a nuclear submarine, even if it enters its own waters without permission! So Captain Grant immediately
Issued an order, "Turn the helm. Drive at full speed! Prepare to return the same way! The sonar soldiers continue to monitor! Report to me any abnormalities found at any time!" He planned to rely on the speed advantage of the Los Angeles class to rush out!
"Lieutenant Colonel! The impact of active sonar came from the front left and right at the same time! We have been surrounded! There are at least three submarines on the other side! But our sonar still can't find where they are hiding! They are like ghosts!
"
"Ignore them, continue to turn the rudder and move forward!" Lieutenant Colonel Grant ordered bravely. He was now betting that the bookmaker would not dare to actually launch a torpedo!
Everyone in the submarine swayed from side to side for a while. The behemoth, which was more than 100 meters long, completed the U-turn with great difficulty underwater, and then increased its power and rushed outwards.
"Lieutenant Colonel! The opponent's impact position was changed to directly in front! The submarine was blocked directly in front of us!" The sonar soldier's voice began to tremble.
"Does that damn guy want to hit us?" Will he become the first top officer of a US military nuclear submarine captured by the Chinese government? Grant unbuttoned his collar and stared at the sonar!
"The opponent is only one nautical mile away from us! I finally found it! It is about 75 meters long and 8 meters wide! According to data comparison, the one blocking us should be China's Song-class submarine!" The sonar operator was excited.
He shouted, "But his noise signal is much smaller than that of the Song-class submarine in the database! Could it be that this is China's new submarine!"
"How could a conventional submarine come to this sea area!" Grant shouted, "Keep moving forward! Keep rushing towards it!" I don't believe you dare not to get out of the way!
"Yes! All members are prepared for collision! There are still 0.8 nautical miles before impact! There are still 0.7 nautical miles before impact! There are still 0.6 nautical miles before impact!" The sergeant's reports were like the countdown signal of a time bomb, which made people feel uncomfortable.
