"Is the speed above 45 knots?"

"That's the patrol speedboat of the coast guard, right?"

After hearing Vice Commander Wei's words, General Cheng said nonchalantly.

"No, the tonnage of this coast guard ship is at least 5000 tons or more!"

Deputy Commander Wei said solemnly.

Looking at Deputy Commander Wei's serious expression, Staff Officer Cheng from the Navy Headquarters quickly looked in the direction he pointed with a telescope.

As he gazed, a coast guard painted ship galloping through the waves also appeared in his view.

"What kind of coast guard ship is this? It has such a fast speed and a beautiful appearance!"

At first sight of the new coastal police ship 1601, General Cheng was attracted.

As is well known, in the world of naval warships, the higher the appearance of warships, the higher their combat effectiveness.

So when he saw the design of the new coastal police ship 1601 with a wave crossing style, as well as the hull that was all inward above the waistline, his gaze was deeply attracted.

"Officer Cheng, what do you think is the tonnage and speed of the ship painted by the Coast Guard?"

The deputy commander of the South China Sea Fleet once again asked about the topic he was most concerned about.

"The tonnage is around 6000 tons, and the speed may reach 50 knots!"

General Cheng expressed his conclusion in shock.

Deputy Commander Wei nodded silently when he heard General Cheng's words.

General Cheng's conclusion coincides with his own.

His so-called speed of over 5000 tons and 45 knots just now is just a super conservative estimate because it's hard to believe!

"Do you see what type of ship this is?"

"No, there has never been a warship with such a design in our navy. Did the coast guard design and build it themselves?"

General Cheng and Deputy Commander Wei observed and exchanged ideas.

"Can a ship weighing over 6000 tons still reach a speed of 50 knots?"

"Even newly built coast guard ships still use our navy's existing technology, don't they?"

"Can we do this?"

Captain Liu Hong was also curious when he heard the conversation between the two commanders.

He couldn't help but pick up a telescope and look over.

However, at this glance, he was stunned on the spot, and his fingers couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"What's wrong, Captain Liu Hong?"

Deputy Commander Wei noticed something unusual and asked him.

"General Cheng, Deputy Commander of the Guard, with a displacement of about 6000 tons, combined with the captain and width of the ship, do you think it looks like our retired 52C destroyer?"

Captain Liu Hong's lips trembled slightly as he spoke.

As the captain of the 52C destroyer and having served on the Lanzhou ship for over a decade, he definitely knows more about the Lanzhou ship than anyone present.

Although Qin Chuan made exterior modifications to the retired Lanzhou ship.

However, it is difficult to change the hard factors such as its full tonnage displacement and the length and width of the ship.

So looking at the size of this warship through a telescope, Captain Liu Hong remained neutral in his mind and even overlapped it with his own 52C destroyer.

"Do you say that the ship painted by the Coast Guard is our retired 52C Lanzhou ship?"

Deputy Commander Wei's face showed an exaggerated expression.

Although he wanted to reject this idea immediately.

But after seeing the part below the waistline of the coastal police painted ship, it still overlapped with the 52C destroyer.

As Captain Liu Hong said, although the mast and appearance have changed, the captain, width, and displacement cannot be changed!

However, when everyone wanted to continue observing and confirming their guess, they found that due to its high speed, the ship painted by the maritime police had actually traveled further and further.

Gradually leaving their field of vision!

"Enter the command room and use radar detection to determine whether the ship painted by the Coast Guard is a Type 52C destroyer!"

Chief Cheng of the Naval Headquarters proposed.

"Yes, just shine a radar on it and you'll know!"

Deputy Commander Wei nodded.

After a few people finished speaking, they immediately walked from the deck towards the command center inside the aircraft carrier.

Due to the need to test the electronic and weapon equipment of the test 003 aircraft carrier during this sea trial, its radar is in a powered on state.

After General Cheng and Deputy Commander Wei arrived at the command center, they immediately searched for information about the maritime police ship on the radar screen.

But after observing for a few minutes, several people showed even more puzzled expressions.

Because they observed that within the range of nearly 100 nautical miles detected by shipborne radar, there were no other ships except for the nearby comprehensive support ship and several other escort mission ships.

"Impossible, in less than half an hour, that ship painted by the Coast Guard can run 100 nautical miles away?"

"Should we expand the radar's investigation range?"

Liu Hong said.

But his proposal was directly rejected by Deputy Commander Wei.

"It's impossible to run 100 nautical miles away in such a short time."

"Change the radar's automatic search to manual search, especially in the direction where the coast guard ship disappeared!"

Deputy Commander Wei issued an order.

After receiving the order, the radar unit on the 003 aircraft carrier immediately took action.

And soon they made a discovery.

"Report, suspected target found 20 nautical miles southeast!"

"According to radar tracking, it is currently traveling at a high speed of 52 knots!"

Radar soldiers report.

Everyone quickly looked at the radar screen.

Under their gaze, it was indeed discovered that the shipborne radar was currently tracking an unknown target traveling at a speed of 52 knots.

"If it's a 52C destroyer, shouldn't detailed detection information be displayed on the radar? How is it an unknown target?"

"And why didn't the shipborne radar automatically search for it before?"

Someone raised a question.

But at this moment, General Cheng, Deputy Commander Wei, and Captain Liu Hong all looked at the radar footage with strange expressions on their faces!

"The radar shows an unknown target because the radar cross section of this coastal police painted ship is completely different from that of the 52C destroyer!"

"And the previous automatic search did not detect it because the shipborne radar automatically ignored it!"

"Because its scattering cross-sectional area under shipborne radar irradiation is only about the same as an ordinary fishing boat weighing tens of tons!"

Captain Liu Hong explained.

"Is the radar scattering cross-sectional area similar to that of an ordinary fishing boat weighing tens of tons?"

"That's a ship with a displacement of over 6000 tons. How could the radar cross section be so small?"

Everyone was in an uproar, their faces exaggerated, and began to discuss.

But at this moment, General Cheng interrupted everyone's discussion with a dry cough.

"The reason is very simple. This is not only a high-speed coast guard ship, but also a radar stealth ship!"

"I guess its wave piercing hull and special upward design above the waistline are designed to reduce radar cross section!"

"In addition, it travels at a speed of over fifty knots, causing turbulent waves and further increasing the impact of sea clutter on radar search, so it is very likely to be ignored by radar!"

"The coast guard is amazing, they even modified a stealth law enforcement warship!"

General Cheng explained somewhat incredulously.

"That maritime police ship with a speed of fifty knots is a new type of high-speed stealth law enforcement warship for maritime police?"

Upon hearing this statement, everyone in the command room immediately looked at each other!
