Chapter 1055: It is impolite not to reciprocate! (Please vote for the monthly ticket at the beginnin

Boom! !

Boom boom boom~~~

The huge body of the Kiev-class aircraft carrier was blasted with big holes!

The seawater poured in from the big holes.

Under the setting sun, it looked tragic!

With the sinking of the Kiev-class aircraft carrier, it also meant that the naval war had come to an end.

A large area of ​​sea was filled with smoke, and corpses were floating on the sea.

Some people were sitting in lifeboats, waiting for rescue.

These lifeboats held white flags, hoping to be rescued by the Pakistani Navy.

From less than six o'clock in the morning to more than six o'clock now, this decisive battle at sea lasted for more than twelve hours.

The Indian aircraft carrier formation that was going to raid Karachi was completely wiped out.

The Indian Navy lost 2 aircraft carriers, 6 destroyers, 12 frigates, 4 tank landing ships, 2 supply ships, 7 submarines, and 3 armed transport ships.

Since the establishment of the Indian Navy, there has never been such a huge loss.

This is almost all the assets that the Indian Navy has accumulated for more than half a century, and the frigates and destroyers purchased from the polar bear are still in training and have not formed combat effectiveness.

This battle can be said to have greatly damaged the strength of the Indian Navy. The Indian coast is completely unsafe. If India wants to protect coastal cities, it will have to mobilize more land-based aircraft to coastal airports, which will weaken the air power of the Indian Air Force on the battlefield.

After losing air superiority, the Indian aircraft carrier formation could not even withdraw.

Because the speed of warships is faster than that of aircraft in the air!

After destroying the Indian aircraft carrier-based aircraft, the Pakistani army mobilized more aircraft to participate in air strikes.

Of course, the Pakistani army also suffered a lot of losses.

The J-7 fighter lost 38, the J-8 fighter lost 20, and the J-12 lost 8, a total of 64 aircraft. It can be imagined that the Soviet warships are strong in air defense.

In terms of warships, including the warships that arrived later, the Pakistani Navy lost 2 "Hashmat-class" submarines, 4 Type 022A torpedo boats, 2 Type 022 missile boats, 1 Type 054 frigate, and 1 Type 052 destroyer. In addition, 2 Type 022A torpedo boats were damaged, 1 Type 022 missile boat was damaged, and 1 Type 054 frigate and 1 Type 052 destroyer were damaged to varying degrees.

But compared with the elimination of Indian naval warships, the Pakistani Navy undoubtedly won a hearty victory.

This time, the combat effectiveness of these advanced warships was fully demonstrated.

As soon as the news came out, the whole world was in an uproar.

No one expected that such a large-scale naval battle would break out between the two sides in the Arabian Sea, and the losses were so serious.

The arrogant Indian Navy was hit hard.

The war between the two sides has obviously turned in favor of Pakistan.

Some military experts even commented that the Pakistani Navy will attack Indian coastal cities.

It may even trigger a chain reaction!

No one could have imagined that the war would change so much all of a sudden.

You know, before this, most military experts and commentators around the world were optimistic about India. After all, India had just received a large amount of military aid from the United States and had purchased a large number of warships.

In this case, India was obviously supported by the West.

But how could India win after the failure of this naval battle?

Should coastal cities still be defended?

Mumbai is a large city on the west coast of India and also the largest seaport in India.

Mumbai is located on Salsette Island off the west coast of Maharashtra, facing the Arabian Sea. The Port of Mumbai is also a natural deep-water port, carrying more than half of India's passenger traffic and a considerable cargo throughput. Mumbai is also the capital of India's commerce and entertainment industry, with important financial institutions such as the Reserve Bank of India, the Bombay Stock Exchange, the National Stock Exchange of India and the headquarters of many Indian companies. Mumbai is also the base of Bollywood.

Mumbai Port is also a major naval base in India. Warships can be built here. There are also a large number of oil depots and ammunition depots. It is also the location of the Indian Western Naval Command and the main force and headquarters of the Indian Western Fleet.

Most of the forces of this aircraft carrier formation come from the Indian Western Fleet.

At this time, there are only some patrol boats and speedboats in the entire Mumbai Port, and there is no frigate or destroyer!

The radar of the Mumbai military port has discovered the Pakistani naval formation.

The air formation that has just been urgently transferred, the air force base sounded the alarm, and the plane began to take off.

"Boom~~"

A MiG-27 fighter was hit by an "Aegis" air defense missile, exploded in the air, and turned into a ball of sparks.

The naval formation consisting of 8 Type 054 frigates, 4 Type 052 destroyers, two supply ships, and two submarines is the military action taken by the Pakistani army against Mumbai this time.

If the Indian Navy dares to raid Karachi, then the Pakistani Navy will also dare to attack Mumbai.

The air defense weapon system of the Type 054 frigate consists of air defense missiles, 76mm guns, 20mm Phalanx close-range weapon systems, and two six-tube jammer rockets. The ship-borne air defense missile Aegis-2 is a medium-range air defense missile with multi-target attack capability, which can effectively counter sea-skimming anti-ship missiles, cruise missiles, and aircraft. The maximum firing height of the air defense missile is 24,000 meters, the maximum range is 80 nautical miles, and the maximum speed is Mach 3.

The Type 052 destroyer is not the largest destroyer in the world, but it does not mean that its combat capability is not strong. Its weapon system includes 1 single-barrel 130mm naval gun, 1 7-barrel 30mm close-in weapon system, 1 24-unit close-range ship-to-air defense system, 1 4-unit medium-range ship-to-air defense system, 8 eight-unit cold and hot co-mounted integrated vertical launch systems, 2 triple-mounted 324mm torpedo launchers, and 4 18-tube multi-purpose launchers.

Vertical launch system, 8 eight-unit vertical launch systems, each system is equipped with 8 launch units and 64 missiles.

At this time, within the range, the Type 054 frigate and the Type 052 destroyer are using the medium-range air defense missile "Aegis 2".

Wait until you enter the range of the short-range air defense missile before using the short-range air defense missile.

In terms of air defense firepower alone, this Pakistani naval fleet is only stronger than the previous Indian aircraft carrier formation.

"Boom~~"

A 'Aegis-2' air defense missile hit a Jaguar attack aircraft. This Jaguar attack aircraft carried a Harpoon anti-ship missile and was going to attack the warship, but it was shot down before it entered the attack range.

In the air, planes were shot down one after another.

Compared with the weak anti-interference ability of the Soviet Navy's warship air defense missiles in the past, the anti-interference ability of the 'Aegis 2' missile is very strong.

Even if the aircraft released jamming bombs, it was not easy to get rid of the 'Aegis 2' air defense missile.

One plane after another was shot down, either exploding in the air or falling into the sea.

A few planes escaped and had no will to fight.

After replenishing the air defense missiles, the Pakistani Navy fleet continued to sail towards Mumbai.

At this time, Mumbai was in chaos.

The air defense alarms throughout the city kept ringing, and no one thought that war would come to this city.
