Tsarist Empire: Please call me His Majesty the Tsar chapter 748

“In addition to aircraft carriers, those warships that are supported. For example, large air defense cruisers, heavy cruisers, destroyers and anti-submarine frigates, how are they equipped?” asked Mikhail.

Aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft are the workhorses of future naval battles. However, this does not mean that aircraft carriers can go to sea on their own. A large number of supporting warships are needed to provide aircraft carriers with air defense and anti-submarine protection.

In this way, the safety of the aircraft carrier can be ensured. Otherwise, once the aircraft carrier goes to sea alone, it will only become a target for the warships of other countries.

“Your Majesty, the large air defense cruisers of the Imperial Navy, and the construction of the first batch has been completed. These air defense cruisers, named Caucasus-class air defense cruisers. Each large anti-aircraft cruiser, with a displacement of 18 thousand tons, was armed with three triple 155-mm guns. 8 twin 105-mm anti-aircraft guns, 2488-mm anti-aircraft guns, 24 twin 40-mm anti-aircraft guns. 24 quadruple 20-mm anti-aircraft guns and 12 twin 20-mm anti-aircraft guns, as well as a large number of 12.7-mm anti-aircraft machine guns. Admiral Enkvist replied.

The combat effectiveness of large air defense cruisers is relatively inferior to the sea 053. However, the air defense combat power is very strong.

A large number of anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns, once fired at full force, would form an impermeable network of anti-aircraft fire. Thus providing powerful air defense protection for the aircraft carriers of the Tsarist Imperial Navy.

After all, the Russian Empire had a large number of aircraft carriers. But those enemies of the Russian Empire also had a lot of aircraft carriers. Especially the lighthouse country, once it starts to storm the army with all its might. Then, their aircraft carriers will be launched like dumplings. This would inevitably pose a huge threat to the Russian Imperial Navy.

The aircraft carriers of the Imperial Russian Navy were also bound to be attacked by enemy carrier-based aircraft.

If there are no powerful air defense battleships. Well, the survivability of the aircraft carriers of the Imperial Russian Navy is equally worrying.

It is indispensable to equip aircraft carriers with a large number of air defense warships.

According to the plan, every aircraft carrier of the Imperial Russian Navy needs to be accompanied by at least one large air defense cruiser. If there is still spare power, it is better to be able to have two large air defense cruisers. Together with the latest cutting-edge heavy and light cruisers, as well as destroyers, an impermeable network of anti-aircraft fire. Thus providing powerful air defense protection for the aircraft carriers of the Tsarist Imperial Navy.

These heavy cruisers, light cruisers and destroyers of the latest Russian Empire also strengthened their firepower in terms of air defense.

As for anti-submarine frigates, they are warships that have been transformed against underwater targets.

This type of anti-submarine frigate was named the X anti-submarine frigate. Although the displacement is only fifteen hundred tons. However, it is equipped with the latest sonar of the Russian Empire, which can clearly monitor underwater movements. At the same time, in addition to naval guns and rapid-fire guns, the battleship was equipped with anti-submarine torpedo launchers, depth charge launchers, as well as anti-submarine rocket launchers.

Mikhail knew very well that the Third Reich was a very powerful submarine. If the Third Reich chooses to go to war with the Russian Empire in the future. Then, the Russian Empire may have to face the powerful submarine forces of the Third Reich.

Further enhancing the anti-submarine warfare power of the Imperial Navy was undoubtedly very important for the Russian Empire.

At that time, I am afraid that the submarines of the Third Reich will use wolf pack tactics against the Imperial Russian Navy. And these anti-submarine frigates of the Russian Empire are the submarines of the Third Reich hunting all over the ocean.

Moreover, the Imperial Russian Navy is not only these anti-submarine frigates with combat power against submarines. Those destroyers, which also have anti-submarine warfare capabilities, are also the main warships against submarines.

This will greatly enhance the anti-submarine warfare (ACBE) power of the Tsarist Russian Navy.

“What about our own submarine?” asked Mikhail.

You know, in the previous Mediterranean battle of the Tsarist Imperial Navy that did not fall on the same day as the Royal Navy, the Swordfish-class submarine of the Tsarist Imperial Navy made great achievements.

If it weren’t for these Swordfish-class submarines, they would have severely damaged the Mediterranean Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Empire. Then, the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Imperial Navy would not have won a brilliant victory, let alone a complete victory in the ensuing confrontation.

Therefore, the Russian Empire also attached great importance to the development of submarines.

In particular, ocean-going submarines became the focus of the next development of the Russian Empire.

“Your Majesty, the first ocean-going submarine of the Imperial Navy, the Tiger Shark-class submarine, has begun construction. Compared with the Swordfish-class submarines, the Tigershark-class submarines have doubled their displacement to 680 tons. The number of torpedoes that can be carried has also been increased from five to 12. Moreover, the cruising range has also been increased to 15,000 kilometers. The underwater endurance also reached an hour.

These Tiger Shark-class ocean-going submarines of the Imperial Navy can already go out of the oceans and carry out combat missions in the oceans. (Read violent novels, just go on Feilu Fiction Network!)

Admiral Enkvist, Minister of the Admiralty, replied.

The Tigershark-class submarine will become the next main submarine of the Russian Imperial Navy.

The Swordfish-class submarines, as well as those offshore submarines previously commissioned, can only be used as offshore defenses.

The Tigershark-class submarines, because of their excellent endurance and strong bomb load, will become the most important combat power of the Imperial Russian Navy to hunt enemy warships and merchant ships on the ocean in the future.

Next, the submarine factories of the Russian Empire will also mainly produce these Tiger Shark-class submarines.

In addition, the Tigershark-class submarines will be equipped in all four fleets of the Russian Navy. It’s just that compared to the Northern Fleet, the Black Sea Fleet and the Pacific Fleet, the Baltic Fleet will not have much equipment due to the terrain and hydrological environment. But even so, the number of equipment for the future Tigershark-class submarines of the Tsarist Imperial Navy is estimated to be very large.

What’s more, the Tigershark-class submarine is just the first ocean-going submarine of the Imperial Russian Navy. Next, the Russian Empire will inevitably further develop larger displacements, the ability to carry more torpedoes, longer voyages and maritime self-sustainment.

It is foreseeable that the future submarine force of the Tsarist Imperial Navy will be even stronger.

Aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft, plus a large ticket of surface warships, plus a huge submarine force. This will make the Imperial Russian Navy extremely powerful!
