Soviet Union 1991

Second update

"Comrade Smiryev, it's up to you to explain our ocean tracking system to the General Staff and the Ministry of Defense. Please search for the most complete novel!" Yanayev said.

All eyes in the conference room were focused on Smiryev. To be honest, more than half of the people in the conference room had higher military ranks than him. But if anyone knows more about the navy's ocean monitoring system, it's probably Smiryev. Miryev was the only one, because he was from the navy, and everyone else was separated by a mountain.

"The Soviet Union's monitoring of U.S. aircraft carriers is reflected in four aspects. In addition to space monitoring, there are also land monitoring systems, ocean monitoring systems and air monitoring systems. The land detection system mainly consists of radar stations and radio detection systems deployed in coastal areas. It consists of direction stations, listening stations, etc. The biggest shortcoming of the monitoring system currently retained by the Soviet Red Navy is that the detection range of coastal radar stations is short, and passive positioning facilities such as radio direction finding stations can only perform rough positioning, and they may also be attacked. Destruction of U.S. Electronic Jamming Systems.”

"The ocean monitoring system consists of the Navy's surface ships, submarines and civilian ships. Among them, nuclear submarines are the main force that tracks the US aircraft carrier battle group for a long time, while surface ships are not ideal wartime tracking platforms due to their poor concealment. However, surface ships are equipped with Our navy has complete electronic reconnaissance equipment suitable for tracking U.S. aircraft carriers and collecting their electronic signal intelligence in peacetime. A large number of ocean-going fishing boats equipped with electronic reconnaissance equipment are deployed to track U.S. aircraft carriers at any time and collect a large amount of intelligence. Our fishing boats of this type are also called the Soviet Shadow Fleet by the U.S. Navy. Of course, the disadvantages of ocean-going fishing boats equipped with electronic reconnaissance equipment are. This was already exposed during the Barents Sea incident in 1981. As long as the United States uses electronic interference, our reconnaissance fishing boats will completely lose their targets. "

At this point, the other older generation of Soviet military leaders were already sitting upright, listening to Misryev continue to speak.

"There is also our aerial surveillance system. The trump card of the Soviet naval aviation in tracking US aircraft carriers is the Tu-1 reconnaissance aircraft and the Tu-142 patrol aircraft. Both aircraft are improved versions of the famous Tu-95 bomber, with a maximum range of 15,000 kilometers. Among them, the figure-is equipped with a long-range surface search radar, a long-range anti-ship missile guidance radar, and an electronic signal intelligence reconnaissance system. It is mainly responsible for searching and locating the US aircraft carrier battle group and guiding anti-ship missiles. Launch an attack. Without interference, the Tu-142 patrol aircraft can detect US aircraft carriers 675 kilometers away at an altitude of 12,000 meters. It also has reconnaissance capabilities for US aircraft carriers. , The main force of monitoring US aircraft carriers. But only in the absence of interference, the US aircraft carrier fleet will not wait for us to discover them. They will inevitably adopt various counter-reconnaissance methods and use electronic jamming."

After Smiryev finished his introduction, the entire conference room fell silent, and several staff members raised questions, "In other words, if the U.S. aircraft carrier fleet wants to deal with our navy, only half of the inspection system may be able to function. Effective?"

"Yes, the so-called integration of land, sea, sky and space is just an ideal proposal. In reality, it is very likely that only one or two of us can truly monitor the movements of US aircraft carriers. And this is still a fact. Otherwise we would not be able to I will be in a passive state in the previous actions.”

Smiryev's words caused everyone present to fall into silence. Coupled with Yanayev's words that the Asia-Pacific was destined to be uneventful, many people felt an unprecedented sense of crisis approaching. It seems that something earth-shattering was destined to happen in the Pacific in 1996, otherwise Yanayev would not have convened a group of senior officials to sit here to discuss the future development direction of the navy.

"In 1982, the United States held Operation North Pacific 82. The theme of the exercise was to attack the Soviet Union. The U.S. Navy aircraft carrier formation used various concealment methods to advance the aircraft carrier formation to the planned strike area near Sakhalin Island and was not attacked by the Soviet Union. The discovery of military power."

Yanayev's intelligence surprised everyone, but Yanayev ignored their attitude and continued to talk to himself, "While the U.S. aircraft carrier formation is moving, the electronic reconnaissance system switches to the radar and communication systems. Active radiation sources, so that the entire fleet does not emit any radio waves. They have a comprehensive understanding of the enemy's satellite orbits in space in advance, can predict when spy satellites will appear, and are also well aware of the enemy's satellite reconnaissance capabilities."

Comrade Yazov, the Minister of Defense, could not hold back his anger. He changed his sitting position several times before he could continue to listen to Yanayev. This information was really difficult for him to accept.

"The aircraft carrier formation takes a variety of routes during one operation, and weather factors are also predicted and calculated before the operation to facilitate concealment. They also need to avoid being close to international shipping routes during navigation to avoid being discovered; during night navigation, night navigation lights are used According to the layout of the merchant ship, instead of sailing in the dark, the arrangement of night navigation lights is exactly the same as that of international merchant ships; the movements of combat aircraft on the aircraft carrier and helicopters on the amphibious assault ship are strictly controlled to prevent the emission of wireless sources. "

"In the 82nd military exercise in the North Pacific, the aircraft carrier formation used the above concealment means and some other tactical means to push the formation under our noses. Moreover, during the operation, they took off helicopters to perform anti-submarine missions and used communications, but the aircraft carrier formation was not discovered because these operations were carried out outside the radiation horizon of our radar. Our reconnaissance satellites did not find the aircraft carrier formation, and their formation continued to advance."

"Finally, the US aircraft carrier formation entered the waters within 2,000 kilometers of the Soviet mainland and was still not discovered. In this area, the aircraft carrier formation carried out limited air operations. During the operation, the aircraft carrier newspaper radio radar was silent; the fighter did not turn on the radio and radar equipment after taking off; the fighter was always outside the Soviet radar horizon and flew to an area 200 nautical miles from the coastline; the e2 electronic warfare aircraft maintained a passive combat flight state. This intelligence comes from the KGB, and I think it's time for everyone present to recognize a fact. The Soviet Union is indeed inferior to the other side in terms of monitoring."

The strategic significance of a strategic strike force not being discovered and punished for four full days within the strike range of the opponent's strategic base can be imagined.

Seeing that some people in the General Staff were still indignant, Yanayev added, "I want to know if some comrades here still want to say that our Kuznetsov is an air superiority aircraft carrier, and the air defense capabilities of the more than 30 SU-33 carrier-based aircraft on it are no joke, and their role is to protect Soviet submarines and various types of ships to a distance of 600 kilometers from the US aircraft carrier, not to attack. If they reach a distance of 600 kilometers from the Americans, then the losers are the Americans. Because we have the most powerful naval saturation offensive strategy, right?"

" Even if the Soviet surface fleet was completely destroyed, the Soviet nuclear submarines only needed two SS-N-19s to launch a saturation attack on the US fleet, and the Soviet army had hundreds of nuclear submarines, right? But have you ever thought about it, if they attacked our most important military command posts and other strategic units at the beginning, would we still have the strength to fight back? "

Seeing that the purpose of attacking blind self-confidence was achieved, Yanayev was ready to encourage everyone present. He waved his hand, and the curtains of the conference room were drawn, and the entire conference room suddenly became dark. The staff around him opened the slides, and under the faint light of the slides, others saw an incredible scene on the screen.

The additional funding figures on the screen made Mislyev at a loss.

"Is this true? The additional budget has reached such a level?" Smiryev looked at the nine zeros behind, and his mouth twitched. The construction of the naval aviation alone has far exceeded his expectations. Smiryev suddenly remembered why Yanaev cut down the huge army in the Far East from the beginning. It turned out to be a preparation for the later air force and the naval aviation on the Pacific coast.

"Quantity is not everything in determining victory, Comrade Smiryev. The Soviet Union must be able to cope with the threat from the US fleet in terms of quality. Therefore, I think it is necessary to get rid of the last large burden of the navy."

For the last large burden, others only thought of the Kiev-class aircraft carrier that was still in the port and had not been sold. I wonder which country General Secretary Yanaev will cheat next.

Looking at everyone's expectant eyes, Yanaev spread his hands and said, "Don't think too much. This time we can sell the last Kiev-class at a big sale price. And now there are no potential buyers. After seeing the fate of India, do you still think that someone will spend a lot of money to buy a Kiev-class? Definitely not, and now there are more than one Kiev-class ships that have been eliminated. There are also a large number of old ships that need to be sold at a special price. This little money alone is enough to make up for our funding problems in the construction of the vine system."

"But when the general secretary said this, I think you have already thought about which country to sell it to?" Comrade Yazov, who had been silent, asked.

Yanaev nodded and no longer concealed it. He said directly, "Yes."

When everyone was concentrating, Yanaev said the name that they didn't dare to believe.

"This aircraft carrier will be sold to China at a very low price. And China will certainly be very happy to accept it. After all, the waters in a certain part of the Asia-Pacific region in 1996 were not very peaceful.")
