Red Soviet Union
Chapter 812: The Turning Point of the Era of U.S. Naval Hegemony
? This seems to be different from what the Americans have claimed in history?
In history, the USS America is majestic and has made great contributions to the United States. After retiring, the US Navy officers and soldiers who once served on the USS hoped that it could enjoy its old age. However, the top Americans did not do this, so let it retire safely , and then sent to a dock to wait. Instead, it was given a new mission.
On April 19, 2005, the USS America was towed away from the Old Naval Harbor in Philadelphia. According to the plan carefully planned in advance by the Naval Sea Systems Command, the U.S. Navy's surface, underwater, and air weapons carried out live ammunition attacks on it. **. After resisting the indiscriminate bombing for a full 25 days, the hull of this once powerful steel monster began to flood with water at 11:30 a.m. local time on May 14, and then silently sank into the Atlantic Ocean.
In the absence of any defense system, the USS America was bombed for 25 days before being bombed and sunk! But now, after only hitting four Sunburn missiles, the USS sank. Isn't the contrast too great? Is it because the hero of East China is bragging too much?
of course not!
First of all, this USS America aircraft carrier has not yet laid a layer of Kevlar armor on the outside to increase its protection ability like later generations. In fact, the anti-strike ability of the American aircraft carrier of later generations has reached the level of the original battleship!
Of course, if it was a subsonic Exocet missile, the semi-armor-piercing warhead would not be able to tear through the side of the USS US aircraft carrier. After all, its power is limited. Ship missiles! Speed brings greater energy. According to the fact that kinetic energy is equal to mass multiplied by the square of speed, Sunburn missiles only rely on the energy brought by speed, which is several times that of Flying Fish missiles. Adding mass, it is definitely the attack power of Flying Fish missiles. More than ten times that!
Secondly, the attack of the first two missiles opened a gap from the weakest tail of the opponent, and caused a fire in the hangar. That kind of mechanical strength.
What weapons did the Americans use when they were experimenting? Definitely not a supersonic anti-ship missile! In the Americans' arsenal, the Harpoon anti-ship missiles similar to the Exocet that attack warships, and the anti-ship missiles improved by the cruise missile Tomahawk, are all subsonic. Americans don't know supersonic anti-ship missiles at all The power of ship missiles!
This is the result of quantitative change leading to qualitative change! When the Americans were experimenting, they were just tickling, and the Argentine navy's attack was definitely a powerful fist!
At the same time, when the Americans were attacking their own aircraft carrier, they greeted them with various weapons when the weather was calm. At that time, there was nothing on the aircraft carrier, just an empty shell. And now? The USS America is a fighting machine filled with aircraft and loaded with all kinds of weapons and ammunition! Even if it is to tear a small hole,
Trigger the fuel or ammunition inside, and the consequences are absolutely disastrous.
For example, now, the biggest blow to the US aircraft carrier is the last missile that got into the ammunition depot. The detonation of the ammunition depot caused the entire aircraft carrier to break! No matter how many layers of watertight cabins you have, how many anti-sinking structures you have, it is winter in the southern hemisphere, and the wind and waves are strong enough to overturn the entire aircraft carrier!
This is the fact. When the final explosion came, the U.S. Navy was stunned. The fire ignited on the sea lit up the entire sky. In the fire, officers and soldiers of the U.S. Navy kept jumping into the water. Swimming vigorously in the sea, hoping to be picked up by other ships, there were more people, but in the cold sea, they finally lost consciousness.
War is cruel. If you drive an aircraft carrier proudly, you must be prepared to be destroyed!
The fire burned for several hours until it was completely bright. The surrounding warships rescued more than 800 crew members who fell into the water. However, more people followed the aircraft carrier and sank into the icy Atlantic Ocean.
The United States sank, and the era of US naval hegemony has undergone a major turning point!
When it was dawn, the weather cleared up and the waves became very small. The seagulls continued to fly over the sea, passing the US aircraft carrier formation from time to time.
The size of the American aircraft carrier formation is even larger, and the USS Carl Vinson aircraft carrier battle group finally merged with the USS US aircraft carrier battle group! However, at this time, the USS America aircraft carrier has disappeared below the surface of the sea!
The Carl Vinson aircraft carrier battle group was cruising around the waters last night, and each of them was extremely angry in their hearts!
The U.S. Navy has never suffered such a loss! The U.S. Navy must take revenge! Mobilize six aircraft carrier battle groups to completely disable Argentina's navy and air force!
The USS was sunk! The news quickly spread all over the world, and the first to reach was the White House. Reagan, who was sleepy, felt dizzy when he heard the news, and almost had a cerebral hemorrhage!
At the beginning, Reagan walked into the White House with confidence and took charge of the entire United States. Reagan was full of spirits, but now, under his leadership, the United States has not yet stepped out of the trough, and has been thrown into the abyss again!
It can be said that the decision to send troops was a bit hasty. After all, it was a war between Britain and Argentina, and the United States could stand outside and persuade the fight. However, the Americans immediately contacted the entire Western world and gave Britain full support. Later, even after the failure of the United Kingdom, the United States fully supported the United Kingdom and assembled the fleet of the entire Western world to crusade against Argentina. Who would have thought , but encountered such a result!
The Navy has failed! This is something he never thought of. As the most powerful navy in the United States, when there is a regional conflict, the first thing the President of the United States asks is, where is our aircraft carrier? If there is an aircraft carrier, there will be sufficient force! And now, the aircraft carrier has been sunk!
Obviously, it's not a local war anymore, it's a total war! Argentina sank our aircraft carrier, and we're going to use all the power of the entire Western world to win a war! This is for us, the United States, and for the entire West. The challenge of the world! said Vice President Bush.
As a former World War II veteran, Bush also felt that this incident made the Americans too useless. The United States still has concerns about going to war with the Soviet Union. If Argentina abuses the U.S. Navy, how can the United States be the leader of the Western world in the future? By! (To be continued.)
