In the tranquil deep sea of Mengjia Bay, a humpback whale is foraging here, but suddenly, it seems to have discovered something and flaps its fins to swim over.
But in the deep, dark sea at a depth of thousands of meters, there is a faint electric current sound quietly silent.
A steel behemoth is slowly cruising underwater, with eight octopus-like thick tentacles stirring the water.
Humpback whales are high-intelligence animals, and this creature of biological and steel combination leaves it very confused in its large eyes.
The curious humpback whale swims around this steel behemoth, but suddenly, this steel behemoth slowly surfaces, the eight tentacles spouting high-speed currents.
The humpback whale emits a sound, bewildered by the impact of the current.
In the next moment, the speed of the Devourer-class Deep Diving Cruiser keeps accelerating, ascending from the deep sea towards the surface.
Inside the cruiser, more than a hundred crew members are busy, various instruments within the hull emit a faint light, casting on focused and silent faces.
"Surfacing, depth 958 meters...700 meters...300 meters..."
"Torpedo loading complete, adjusting firing angle, launching preparation."
"Launch attack precisely one minute, simultaneously surface and complete annihilation."
Orders are being conveyed within the cruiser, with the biological radar and biotype sonar installed inside the Devourer-class Cruiser operating perfectly.
At this moment, on the electronic screen of the sonar radar, more than a hundred kilometers away from the Devourer-class Cruiser, a dense cluster of light points is displayed, detected by biological sonar—the main fleet of the Country A Navy.
Data on the screen jumps every moment, switches on the console are fluctuated, after the Devourer-class Deep Diving Cruiser surfaces to the preset height.
The deep-diving cruiser's eight octopus tentacles suddenly erect upward, ending in a menacing chrysanthemum-shaped mouth, emitting a continuous string of bubbles, with eight rocket-assisted flying torpedoes emerging from within the tentacles.
In an instant, the rocket-assisted flying torpedoes rise through the water surface, the blazing flames at the rear expand in a circle, soaring like a missile towards the destination more than a hundred kilometers away.
Rocket-assisted flying torpedoes, also known as anti-submarine missiles, consist of rocket flying apparatus and acoustic guided torpedoes, primarily carried by rocket to fly, upon reaching the preset point, the acoustic guided torpedo detaches from the rocket flying apparatus, enters the water and automatically searches for submarines according to the preset program, damaging submarines within its effective radius, being a formidable weapon against submarines.
It's not just this single Devourer-class Deep Diving Cruiser that initiates the attack.
All around the Country A Navy fleet, other Devourer-class Deep Diving Cruisers already ambushing here have completed surfacing, launching rocket-assisted flying torpedoes for saturation bombing.
Inside the Vikrant-class aircraft carrier bridge, the bridge is the brain of the warship, where the warship is controlled and battles are commanded, including the command room, cockpit, and open-air command post.
In the bridge, the atmosphere is exceptionally oppressive, Kumar and a group of senior fleet officers wear expressions of stupor, their faces ashen.
Because they have already received news of the complete annihilation of the carrier aircraft formation, not a single Mig-29K fighter returned, without even scratching that stealth cruiser of Jieke Group.
"How can this be, so many carrier aircraft, just gone."
Markuer mutters, wearing a disbelieving shocked expression.
Those were exactly 12 Mig-29K fighters! Since the rise of aircraft carriers in WWII, the theory of aircraft carrier supremacy has become a truth in sea battles, Beautiful Country could become the Blue Star Dominator solely relying on those 12 aircraft carrier battle groups.
Yet cruisers, this outdated warship type long eliminated by the era, are not built by mainstream countries now.
But when two collide, the mobility and flexibility of carrier aircraft should bully the foolish large cruiser section, yet not a single carrier aircraft remains, leaving Markuer perplexed.
"Commander, we still have two Destroyers about to get that stealth cruiser within range, and then the opponent will be ours."
Beside them, a naval staff officer speaks, breaking the deathly silent scene.
"Our Destroyer's top speed is 32 knots; he cannot escape."
"Just sinking that stealth cruiser is worth sacrificing a bit."
"The aircraft carrier is still there, later additional carrier aircraft can resume combat, compared to sinking a cruiser of forty to fifty thousand tons, our victories are bigger."
Officers at the conference table chatter, all finding excuses for their failures.
But they do indeed feel there is still a chance. Their enormous fleet remains, the Destroyer's speed is certainly higher than the cruiser, the opponent now exposed can't break away from pursuit.
Just as numerous commanding officers indulge in fantasies, alarm sounds pierce through this atmosphere.
The communicator receives a missile attack warning from allied Escort Ships outside, promptly sounding the carrier's air defense alarm.
Country A Navy crew on the carrier are startled by the alarm sound, lacking training in usual times, they appear flustered.
In the carrier's bridge radar alert workstation, the radar operator's face changes drastically, because the Vikrant-class aircraft carrier also detects incoming missiles, equipped with numerous radar electronic devices, including front and rear radar bases, installed with EL/M-2248MF-STAR solid-state phased array radar, used for air warning and air defense missile terminal guidance, providing strong alert information.
The incoming missile's red flash blinks, the radar operator immediately reports more detailed intelligence.
"Commander, forty unknown incoming missiles detected, targeting directly our fleet."
