"What about the two submarines?" Mustafa asked.

"They have accelerated to at least [-] knots." The sonar soldiers analyzed from the sound they heard, and the opponent must be a nuclear submarine!The two submarines sailed at high speed, what did they want to do?

If it was possible, Johnson would not be willing to follow so close underwater and run so fast. If not, he would completely lose track of the other party in half an hour at most. Eagle confession?

This is very dangerous. Johnson knows that the opponent's next move is probably to turn around. Fortunately, he has already touched the opponent's pattern. The captain of the submarine in front is left-handed!Every time when checking whether there is any movement in the rear, he likes to use full left rudder. Therefore, his current submarine is at the right of the rear of the opponent. In this way, when the opponent turns, although he turns later, You can also follow the opponent just right.

Chapter 888 Crazy Ivan

"Release the communication buoy, notify Hedden and Jigal, and let them immediately send a helicopter to search our current No. [-] sea area. There are two nuclear submarines of unknown nationality here." Mustafa said: "Underwater acoustic communication Equipment, send a report to another of our submarines, let him intercept it in the No. [-] sea area."

"This way we won't be spotted by the submarine in front," said the deputy captain.

"It's better if they find it. If they can slow down, we can catch up." Mustafa said.

Although the opponent is two nuclear submarines, Mustafa is not afraid at all, but if he can't catch up with the opponent, he has nothing to do. The warship on the sea has a ship-borne helicopter, which can reach here quickly, and another submarine is running on them. In front of the road, you can occupy a favorable launching position in front.

What Mustafa is standing on is just a conventional submarine, which is like a small QQ. Although it is a new version with a facelift, no matter how you run it, it can't outrun the BMW.

As soon as the message was sent, the sonar operator heard a strange sound. He listened carefully to the complex sound situation inside, and suddenly understood what happened in front of him. He immediately reported: "Captain, there is danger ahead. We're going to reverse at full speed!"

The 30-ton submarine under Ye Ruofu's feet was sailing underwater at a speed of more than [-] knots. Ye Ruofu's feeling became stronger and stronger. Behind him, there must be a Los Angeles-class submarine!

"Full right rudder." Ye Ruofu gave the order.The full speed sailing just now is for the current turning!The faster the speed, the higher the efficiency of the rudder surface, and the faster the turning action can be completed, the more defenseless the American submarine behind will be, thus showing its original shape on its side.

Here is the widest part of the Persian Gulf, which is more than 100 kilometers wide. The two sides are still far apart, and the water depth is more than 100 meters. They don't have to worry about hitting the bottom.

Following Ye Ruofu's order, the huge submarine began to turn. At this time, the speed was already the highest. When turning, even the hull of the boat was tilted a little. The crew members are still sticking to their posts. If they are followed by American submarines, they will definitely appear on their side now.

This kind of action is very familiar to all Soviet submarines. It is a tactic that the Soviets are good at, but it is the most frightening thing for Americans. This action is called by them, "Crazy Ivan" !

In the earphones of the sonar operator, there is the sound of sea water flowing, and occasionally there is the sound of bubbles, which are some large fishes spitting bubbles. Suddenly, he heard a familiar sound, which is the sound of a Los Angeles-class submarine sailing at full speed. the sound of!

"Report, found a Los Angeles-class ship, fifty degrees to starboard, three nautical miles away, driving at full speed." Sure enough, after turning, they heard the familiar voice, and the sonar operator immediately reported that there was a kind of anxiety in the voice, three Nautical miles, that's a short distance away.

When the sonar operator of the Los Angeles-class submarine heard the sound of water flow caused by the rotation of the other party's rudder surface through the sonar at the bow, he immediately reported it to the captain.

I knew the other party was going to do this!Taking advantage of the present, I turned around early and synchronized with the other party!Johnson immediately ordered full port rudder.

When the rudder surface rotates, the water flow will be shot from the side, thereby turning, which is the same as the rudder of an airplane. The sonar operator behind can hear the difference of the change of the water flow, but they cannot hear the direction of the rudder. Left or right, you don't know the opponent's turn.

However, Johnson has already concluded that the other party is used to full left rudder, so he followed the full left rudder.

However, two seconds later, the sonar operator was surprised to hear that the other party was full of right rudder!

Originally, the Baton Rouge was at the right rear of the Soviet submarine, but now, the other side had full rudder to the right, and I had full left rudder, just exposing my body to the side of the other side.

"The submarine in front has a full starboard rudder, we have been spotted!" said the sonar soldier.

"What? Full starboard?" Johnson was also taken aback: "Full starboard."

At this time, Johnson made a mistake. He miscalculated the opponent's movements. He had always liked the opponent with full left rudder, but he unexpectedly turned to full right rudder. Now, he immediately spotted the Los Angeles-class submarine behind him. .

At this time, the distance between the two sides is already very close.

Johnson then ordered the full starboard rudder, causing the hull to shake immediately. Then, the sonar soldiers were surprised to find that they were very close to each other!

It is very complicated to operate a submarine of several thousand tons or even tens of thousands of tons. In other words, what happens to such a huge monster is all in slow motion, just in the process of making these movements underwater. , the distance between the two sides has become closer and closer.

K-132 has always been full to the right rudder, and the hull is turning, turning nearly 180 degrees. At this time, the Los Angeles-class submarine with full left rudder and then full right rudder has just completed the turn and returned to the original direction. , shifted ten degrees from right to right, and the distance between the two sides was already close to two nautical miles!

Due to the loss of kinetic energy during the turning process, the speed of the two submarines has dropped to 3 knots, and they are two nautical miles away from each other, almost facing each other. Then, if no measures are taken, after [-] minutes, they will be dead collide.

3 minutes!The time left for them is very short.

After the sonar soldiers reported the exact position of the opponent's submarine, Johnson suddenly felt that he should not follow the full rudder to the right just now, but should continue to use the full rudder to the left. In this way, the two sides can still maintain a certain distance. Now, it is very dangerous.

"Has the other party slowed down?" Johnson asked.

Now, the distance between the two sides is rapidly approaching, but Johnson does not want to slow down, because after his speed drops, it will be more difficult to perform various actions such as occupying a position. Now, since the other party has discovered himself, then, Some underwater fights are inevitable. At this time, the faster one has an advantage.

"The opponent is increasing the speed." The sonar soldier reported.

increase speed?Johnson realized that something was wrong. Are the Soviets crazy?

The Soviets have always been so crazy underwater!

When he discovered that there was indeed a Los Angeles-class submarine behind him, Ye Ruofu immediately ordered the nuclear reactor of the submarine to run at full power and speed up!

For the command of the captain, the crew must obey unconditionally. The deputy captain is only worried about analyzing the sonar report. collision accident.

More than ten years ago, a submarine of their fraternal force collided with an American submarine. That time, the fraternal submarine force suffered a loss. However, the submarine at that time was relatively primitive, unlike the one under their feet now. When the 800 million ton submarine was built, the designer once said that even if it collided with an American submarine, it would be absolutely safe!

Because, outside the pressure hull of Oscar Level 2, there is a structure surrounded by a four-meter-thick non-pressure hull!

Of course, Yezhov didn't want to collide. He did this to force the Los Angeles-class to turn. Then, he could let the Americans experience the feeling of being hit by active sonar on the outer pressure-resistant shell.Under water, it is the world of Soviet submariners!

"Reverse at full speed, fully open the enclosure rudder, and make an emergency ascent." Johnson said.

Now, he has no other choice, the Soviets are crazy, he can't follow the madness, but he didn't choose to turn, because turning now will let the opponent get the most favorable position, so he chose to go up, now, the two sides are At the same depth, as long as he rises 20 meters high, he can avoid the danger of colliding with each other.

After receiving his order, the propeller at the tail of the Baton Rouge reversed and started to reverse at full speed. Since the propeller was designed for forward rotation and was specially optimized, the reverse rotation was only an extremely special case, so , and now the noise is even louder.

"The opponent is reversing at full speed." The sonar soldier shouted: "The distance between us is still one nautical mile."

This is already very close, and in a few minutes, the two sides will pass each other.

"Reverse at full speed, level the rudder five degrees, and prepare to ascend." Ye Ruofu said.Such a short distance is very dangerous, so Ye Ruofu also knew that there was a danger of collision. Now that the other party gave in first, he should take measures. However, he didn't know that if he just reversed the car, he could still rub the car. Passing by, but now that he is also rising, it is self-defeating, because the other party is also rising!

Ye Ruofu commanded calmly, next, it's time to turn again and occupy a favorable position at the same time.

Under the water, it is now 80 meters deep, and it is almost dark. Two huge underwater steel behemoths are doing their own skilled movements. In order to avoid collision, K-132 and Baton Rouge both I chose to go up while decelerating, and the Baton Rouge Rì went up first, but K-132 used the first level rudder, which was forward of the shell rudder of the Baton Rouge Rì, so the torque was greater, but it was The elevation angle of the K-132 is greater.

If someone observes outside the boat now, they will definitely find that the bow of the K-132 has risen to almost fifteen degrees, getting closer and closer to the belly of the Baton Rouge. shell, but had a violent kiss with the belly of the Baton Rouge.

The submariners on both sides felt the body of the boat tremble suddenly. Oops, there was a collision underwater that no one wanted to see!

The violent collision caused the head of K-132 to drop suddenly. Ye Ruofu immediately ordered to balance the hull and check the damage of the bow.

As for the submariners on the Baton Rouge submarine, all their faces turned pale. They seemed to have heard the sound of the shell breaking just now!

The sound of this impact was recorded by the underwater TR-1700 submarine that had stopped to avoid the underwater traffic accident. Mustafa frowned. He knew that something unexpected had happened!

Chapter 889 A Ship Is Arrested

With the huge shaking of the hull, Johnson knew that they still hadn't escaped the Soviet submarine, and they had collided together.

Colliding with Soviet submarines, you can only suffer losses, because Soviet submarines operate in the Arctic region most of the time. In order to ensure that they can break out of the ice under the glacier, they are all double-hulled structures, and built very firmly.
