The improvements to the escort aircraft carriers and anti-submarine reconnaissance aircraft have come to an end. China's army and naval weapons will not be replaced on a large scale. It does not mean that China does not have the ability to replace these weapons on a large scale. After China's science and technology has established a foundation and relied on many universities, China's science and technology is progressing very quickly. Whether it is the navy or the army, there are a number of weapons that have developed and matured in the laboratory.

The army mainly has artillery. The development of self-propelled artillery has exceeded 100 mm. At present, the 120 mm self-propelled artillery has been basically completed. In addition to the in-depth research on army equipment, the emergence of gun families and anti-equipment weapons has strengthened the combat effectiveness of the army's light weapons. In terms of the navy, the new generation of aircraft carriers has been designed and the power is more powerful. It will be 150% of the previous fleet aircraft carriers. The tonnage will be amplified to about 70,000 tons, which is nearly twice the current one. The larger tonnage brings better protection and sink resistance. The number of aircraft cannot be greatly improved. After all, the size of aircraft carriers cannot be endlessly increased, but the handling and speed of launching aircraft are accelerating.

These new technologies can enhance the combat effectiveness of the Chinese fleet, but they have not yet been replaced. Some of the army equipment has been produced. In the small-scale installation of the test troops, the naval equipment is still on the technical reserves and strives to advance forward to make the ships perform higher and more powerful weapons. The fundamental reason why the ships are not equipped is that they will bring a sense of strangeness. The war between China and the United States will come in 1917. Before that, China needs to increase its strength to a limited extent and will not cause major changes to the overall situation, unless it is similar to armored forces, such as armed helicopters, self-propelled howitzers, strategic rocket launchers, with a range of about 100 kilometers.

China silently accumulates strength for the upcoming war. Whether in the Degree Department of the General Staff Headquarters, the Weapons Research Institute, or even among many modern factories, they are silently contributing to China's construction, increasing China's strength from the nuances, especially those newly occupied lands. The integration work of Southeast Asia has been carried out to a certain extent. It is remembered that Australia, as long as it is tied together with 30 million square kilometers of land, China will not be afraid even if it faces the whole world.

Because it was modified, it was not as slow as a new product. The first batch of 30 modified anti-submarine reconnaissance aircraft were not arranged on the Middle East route at the first time, but were arranged to Hawaii. If there would be a war between China and the United States in 1917, Hawaii was the focus of the focus. In order to ensure the safety of the place, especially the safety of warships and merchant ships that will be deployed in the future, it became an inevitable choice to be familiar with anti-submarine reconnaissance aircraft in advance.

30 aircraft were divided into two brigades, piloted by 60 pilots, left China and flew towards the depths of the ocean. The person in charge was Zhou Shuzheng, a young man who was only 25 years old, but he had been engaged in flight for five years. Since he was 20 years old, he stood out in the flight club and became a pilot. He embarked on a different path among others and flew at least 12 types of aircraft. However, the one who flew the best and the longest time was that he had just been modified into an anti-submarine aircraft, Dapeng Bird-class II aircraft. Because of this, among the four brigades that were first established in the selection, Zhou Shu was the captain of the first brigade. Without the regiment level, he was the highest-ranking one.

After the modification, the anti-submarine aircraft has a new code name, Seahawk. After the official number, Chinese aircraft will have a code name. For example, the Firebirds in the fighter and the Seagulls in the carrier-based aircraft are all relatively normal code names, controlling the plane to fly flat. This is the most economical way of flying and the most fuel-efficient. The aircraft model that he is familiar with has even changed its name, and even the general control of the aircraft has changed to a certain extent, which makes Zhou Shuzheng feel a little excited.

The Seahawk has made great changes. It turned out that the medium-sized Roc was a single-seat medium-sized bomber, but the Seahawk's driver was divided into two. Next to him, there was a driver who was usually just a co-pilot, and he spent more time staring at the sonar monitor. On the monitor in the net format, there was a sonar wave search area, constantly searching for the detection range.

The antenna and body of the sonar are distributed in the front of the Seahawk. Although the radar display can also be placed in the cabin, the cockpit should be the safest on the aircraft, just like the position of the car driver. In an emergency, you always consider your own risk aversion first, rather than in the cabin. In addition, the connection between the sonar and the screen cannot be too far. After repeated consideration, the cabin will be turned into two drivers side by side. They all have the ability to drive. At critical moments, one side can assist or even take over the main driver to drive.

In terms of performance indicators, the detection range of the final fixed sonar is fixed at 3 kilometers. It seems that the detection range is not large, but for sonar, it is impossible to improve hundreds of kilometers or hundreds of kilometers like radars, just like radars that have not been fully finalized, with a detection range of 180 kilometers. However, sonar has its uniqueness, and even sonar is more practical and more accurate than the 5 kilometers above the ship. Sonar coming down from the air can accurately determine that most targets with a decibel exceeding 105 can be accurately displayed on the radar screen.

This decibel number is already quite excellent. You should know that the volume of the background sound of the sea is around 90 years old, and even in some bad weather, the decibels are still rising significantly. The closer it is to this decibel, it is quite difficult to separate the noise from the back video. It requires a very high computing power. That is, China's semiconductor projects are so powerful that this effect can be achieved. The resolution of 105 decibels is almost impossible to hide under this sonar, let alone submarines from other countries in the world.

Take German submarines as an example to absorb many concepts in Chinese submarines, but the sound problem has never been very good. To put it bluntly, the sound of large ships like submarines is partly the sound of the engine and the internal sound. This part can be solved by strengthening lubrication and adding internal sound-absorbing materials. However, most of the sound of the submarine is brought by propellers. Unless it is hovering, the submarine separates the water flow and the sound of the propeller cutting water is almost inevitable. This is not simply adjustable. It must be adjusted in reality. Multi-layer methods are used to use high-precision processing, soft cutting water flow, and reduce decibels, and strive to reduce the sound of the propeller.

The world's highest-end mechanical processing capabilities of Chinese owners, but such refined processing also requires gradual progress. After all, propellers are processed at one time, and many workpieces are irregular in shape. If they are processed multiple times, it will damage the willfulness of these parts. So far, China's propeller sound can only be controlled at 110, which is not completely immune to the detection of Chinese high-precision sonars. However, for other sonars, it is difficult to detect within at least 5 years. Even China's own sonars are difficult. After all, 110 is 5 decibels higher than 105, which is easy to be ignored unless a radar reaction diagram is made.

Just like China now, all reactions are stored in sonar. As long as you find a little clue, you can distinguish the submarine from the sea. This is more about preventing accidental injuries. When besieging submarines, if there are underwater submarines or Chinese ships, they can be distinguished through sonar.

However, not every sonar attached unit is installed on every sonar. Generally, it is only equipped on a landline above the squadron leader, and strictly keeps it confidential. It will be written into the program. Once the sonar is shut down, the data will be formatted in reverse to show safety to the greatest extent. In fact, if it is just the physical body of the sonar, it will be enough to replace the propeller at most. China's processing capacity and mechanical manufacturing capabilities are constantly rising. The processing and replacement of propellers are always in progress. As long as a slight change is made, the voiceprint is slightly different from before, and it will not be discovered.

This is also part of the security guarantee. Every sonar installed with this auxiliary unit has a strict record. Even if it is scrapped or damaged, it must be sent back to China. There are special personnel to deal with it. If there is a problem or loss, an investigation mechanism must be activated. As long as it is possible to leak, a certain amount of treatment will be carried out on the propeller and submarine.

Along the way, Zhou Shuzheng was testing this aircraft while flying, especially the performance of long-term flight, which was not much different from the previous ones. It seemed that the power and control were modified. The heavy work during takeoff and landing could be helped by the co-pilot, which reduced the hard work of the pilot and reduced the danger. As for the flight in the air, it was more stable and the noise was smaller. This could enhance the accuracy of sonar detection and prevent the influence of some sound sources on the aircraft. Taking off from Tianjin Airport, it passed through the Ogurihara Islands in the middle and then went straight to Hawaii. The longest flight journey was as high as 3,800 kilometers, almost approaching the flight limit of the Seahawk 4,300 kilometers. Submarines were really discovered twice along the way, but unfortunately, they were all their own submarines.

Fortunately, with these discoveries, Zhou Shuzheng was not too lonely. In addition, chatting with his subordinates and pilots through the intercom system is a rare pastime for long-distance flights. The range of more than 5,000 kilometers has exceeded the maximum range of the Seahawk. Even if it is refueling in the middle, the one-time flight time is more than 6 hours. This is a huge test for people. Not only is it mentally, but it also consumes a lot of physical strength. Without a co-pilot, it is really difficult for him to complete this long-distance flight.
