Chapter 372: The Indonesian Navy Appears
After hearing Mavie's proposal, General Datuo nodded and replied, "Okay, Mr. Mavie, we are willing to appreciate the style of the guardian frigate."
Let’s leave budget and other things behind. Since we have come to Russia from afar, we naturally cannot miss the opportunity to experience it. After all, modern warships like this are very lacking in the Royal Malaysian Navy. It is also good to open everyone’s eyes.
"Okay, General Datuo, let's board the ship. Let me introduce to you, this is the captain of the 20380 frigate, Lieutenant Colonel Tobolov. He commanded the ship a while ago and eliminated many Somali pirates." Mavi introduced to the Malaysian Navy in a familiar way.
"Hello, Lieutenant Colonel Tobolov." At someone's recommendation, General Datuo warmly shook hands with the captain and exchanged a few greetings...
This time, someone tried a lot of effort to appreciate the style. Just as everyone was about to board the warship, they saw two Sigma-class frigates, plus three Ahmed Yani-class frigates!
I saw the Royal Malaysian Navy standing at the dock and was shocked! The reason was that the Sigma-class frigate and the Ahmed Yani-class frigate were the main warships of the Indonesian Navy! How could this suddenly appear in Russia...?
"Mr. Mavie, is this?" General Datuo asked Mavie without understanding the situation. The Indonesian Navy and their Malaysian Navy were mortal enemies 40 years ago. Now there is no sign of sudden appearance, which makes Adtuo feel very puzzled, and even feels uneasy, lingering in his heart.
"Oh, it's okay, General Datuo. The five frigates in front of you are not from the Indonesian Navy. But our Russian shipyard has renovated and renovated the warships that have retired from the four major fleets. Although their shapes may be very similar to the Sigma-class frigates and the Ahmed Yani-class frigates."
Mawei replied calmly.
The Sigma-class frigate in Indonesia is a warship developed and produced by the Dutch Damen Shipbuilding Group. It has a full load displacement of 1,700 tons. It is 90.71 meters long, 13.02 meters wide and has a draft of 3.60 meters.
It is equipped with 2 Semt Pierstick 20pa6b Stc diesel engines, with a maximum speed of 28 knots. 1 Otto 76mm naval gun, 2 Daniel Giat M693/f2 20mm automatic gun. 2 two-mounted flying fish anti-ship missiles or C802.2 four-mounted northwest windship air missiles. 2 triple-mounted Mu90 light torpedo launch tubes.
The Ahmed Yani-class frigate is a second-hand warship from the Netherlands, with a full load displacement of 2,835 tons. The ship is 113.4 meters long and 12.5 meters wide. The speed is 28.5 knots. One Otto 76mm gun, four 12.7 mm caliber machine guns. Two Sadral dual-mounted air defense missile launchers, with 28 ammunitions. Eight "harpoon" anti-ship missile launchers. Two triple-mounted 324mm mk32 torpedo launchers.
The five Indonesian frigates in front of them are customized and simulated products based on the Malaysian Navy customer. As someone's arms business grows bigger and bigger, the retired ships of the four major Russian Navy fleets will almost continuously transport them to his shipyard.
This also made Mavie spend money to buy two other shipyards in St. Petersburg. This not only improved his group's shipbuilding capabilities, but also solved Russia's environmental problems. After all, if retired ships docked in warship cemeteries, they have been corroded by sea water for a long time, they will seriously pollute the surrounding marine environment. When they are treated in the future, they will cost more money...
When he heard Mavie say that the five warships in front of him were transformed from Russian retired warships. Admiral Datuo and Malaysian naval officers couldn't help but blink and look at them again.
I have to say that Russia's shipbuilding technology is really powerful. Even if everyone knows that this is a renovated ship, they can't find any clues. It looks as realistic as a real Indonesian naval warship.
"Mr. Mavie, you have created this Sigma-class frigate and Ahmed Yani-class frigate. Is it not going to hold any electronic maritime battles or other exercises later, right?" Admiral Datuo asked Mavie hesitantly.
Before coming, he heard from the Royal Malaysian Air Force that Russia's fierce exercises would definitely leave a deep impression. However, what he did not expect was that what the Royal Air Force said was that it was such a French life. It was really eye-opening...
"It's almost the same, Admiral Datuo. But compared to electronic maritime confrontation, what we will use later is real guns and ammunition, not the kind of simulated information." Mawei replied bluntly. They are not without electronic simulation confrontation. But for combat nations, of course, it is really more exciting.
As soon as Ma Wei finished speaking, General Datuo, who was standing in front of him, and the Malaysian Navy officers, were stunned for a moment!
"Real guns and live ammunition? Are you not afraid of casualties in case of hitting a hit? Mr. Mavi?" Admiral Datuo was really surprised. He knew that the Russians were fierce, but he didn't know that the Russians were so fierce. Military exercises that could kill people were surprised.
After hearing this, Mawei laughed, "It's okay, General Datuo, because the five modified warships in front of you are equipped with unmanned driving systems. In other words, there are no living people on the ship, so you can fire the fire at will."
"Unmanned Driving System?" For the Malaysian Navy, who are still using warships in the 1970s, there are very few terms such as unmanned Driving Systems. To put it simply, this is already considered advanced technology in their eyes...
"Yes, the unmanned driving system." Ma Wei said, and under the leadership of the captain, he led the Royal Malaysian Navy to board the guardian-class frigate. Then he came to the captain's room and waited to set sail and go out to sea.
30 minutes later, the 20380 frigate that Mawei and others rode successfully arrived in the open sea. With them, there were two Sigma-class frigates and three Ahmed Yani-class frigates.
Seeing that it was almost done, Ma Wei, who was in the captain's room, smiled and said, "Lieutenant Colonel Tobolov, it's almost time to start? Let the guests from afar see the power of the guardian frigate."
"Okay, Mr. Mavie, everything is yours." Captain Tobolov replied respectfully to Mavie.
Chapter completed!
