The Bosphorus Bridge is very spectacular. From a distance, this bridge supported by a "gate"-shaped bridge tower is supported by countless steel cables and crosses the entire strait. When the strong wind blows , the bridge deck will even sway left and right, the sea is sparkling, reflecting the shadow of the bridge, as well as the ancient castles, mosques, house shadows and forest shadows on the shore, colorful and unique.
And at this moment, what is reflected on the water is not just the shadows of the bridge and the shore, but more of them are huge silhouettes, which are Soviet warships!
There are warships all over the sea, and the largest one has a displacement of more than 40,000 tons! The length of the hull is nearly 300 meters!
Soviet aircraft carrier! The latest aircraft carrier Novorossiysk has completed all sea trials and is ready to be delivered to the Northern Fleet!
And now, the appearance of this aircraft carrier represents the most powerful Soviet naval power! The other warships that followed were also built by the Black Sea Shipyard and were ready to be exported to the Northern Fleet, and there were also warships of the Black Sea Fleet. In short, the naval power of the Soviets, which was standing in the Black Sea, was almost equally aggressive!
And all this, of course, is because of the Turkish government! They think they have nothing to fear because they have the Americans and NATO behind their backs? How dare you refuse the notice from the Red Empire!
Just three days ago, the Soviet Union sent a diplomatic note to Turkey that a new Soviet-built heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser was ready to pass through the Turkish Strait to serve in the Northern Fleet.
This was originally just a routine matter. The first few aircraft carriers of the Soviet Union, whether they were Moscow-class or Kyiv-class, were released after a notice was issued.
But now, the Turkish side has a brain cramp, saying that the Soviet warship cannot pass!
The management of the Turkish Strait has gone through many turning points. At the beginning of the prosperous period of Tsarist Russia, the Turkish Strait was included in its own management scope. At the same time, Turkey pulled Western countries to abolish the management of Saudi Arabia. After that, the most authoritative strait The management method is the "Montreux Convention" signed on July 20, 1936, which stipulates that the Black Sea countries have the right to freely pass through the strait in peacetime; the type, tonnage and stay time of warships sent into the Black Sea by non-Black Sea countries are restricted; belligerent countries Warships are not allowed to pass through the strait; if Turkey is involved in or threatened by war, it has the right to allow or prohibit any warship from passing through the strait.
After that, at the end of World War II, we experienced new struggles. Among these clauses, the regulation that Soviet aircraft carriers and battleships were not allowed to pass through the strait was added. In short, in the process of competing for power in the Turkish Strait, the United States was the biggest beneficiary. and even successfully pulled Turkey into the NATO camp.
For this condition, the Soviet Union did not have too much burden at the time. The high-level officials at that time despised the role of aircraft carriers. However, in recent years, the high-level leaders of the Soviet Union have finally begun to pay attention to it. One aircraft carrier after another is constantly building ships from the Black Sea. Plant water.
The Black Sea shipyard has advanced technology and suitable equipment, and is most suitable for building aircraft carriers. Therefore, the Soviet Union has no choice. However, the built warships must pass through the Turkish Strait!
In the past, although Turkey was also a member of the NATO camp, Turkey was directly facing the threat of the Soviet Union.
However, with Novorossiysk, things were different!
This whole-deck, heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser with only the bridge structure retained. After notifying the Turkish government, the Turkish side pointed out angrily to the Soviet representative that this was not a heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser, but an aircraft carrier!
It's just a different statement! In fact, the first two Kyiv-class ships already have obvious aircraft carrier characteristics. By flying over the deck to take off and land fixed-wing fighters, isn't this an aircraft carrier? Since such a warship still looks like a cruiser from the right side, the Turkish side let it go.
But now, this aircraft carrier, yes, is the upper deck of the aircraft carrier, all decks, the leap deck on the bow, and the angled deck on the left, what else could this be if it wasn't an aircraft carrier? Moreover, with a displacement of more than 40,000 tons, apart from the US aircraft carrier, only this aircraft carrier has the largest displacement!
Yes, it's an aircraft carrier! The Turkish side insisted that this is an aircraft carrier, so it cannot pass through the Turkish Strait!
The diplomatic note did not pass, but of course, the Soviet Union would not bow down to this, so several newly built warships, plus the warships of the Black Sea Fleet, a mighty lineup of more than 30 ships came to the Turkish Strait!
For the Soviet Union, fists are the best way to solve problems!
Standing on the bridge, Captain Dovbnia looked at the bridge opposite. This is the narrowest place in the entire strait. At the same time, it is also the place where the Turkish government finally blocked the passage of its own aircraft carrier formation with illusions. Just in the center of the bridge, a loudspeaker was set up to shout to the fleet.
"Please stop your advance immediately and don't maliciously provoke war! According to the previous agreement, aircraft carriers cannot pass through the Turkish Strait! The entire strait belongs to our territorial waters of Turkey. If we cross the Turkish Strait without the consent of our Turkish government, this is wrong. The barbaric aggression of Turkey's territorial sovereignty is an act of war! Please exercise the necessary restraint The anti-ship missiles of our coastal defense forces are ready, if you continue to advance, they will be We destroy!"
Turkey is not only talking about it. At this time, on the positions on both sides of the strait, on the launch vehicles of one or two vehicles, the launchers of the Harpoon anti-ship missiles have been deployed, and they will attack the formations at sea at any time!
After all, this is just a strait, not a wide water surface. Shore-to-ship missiles can play a very good role, and the Soviet aircraft carrier formation cannot intercept all these missiles at all!
For Turkey, this is the first time they have encountered such a situation. If it wasn't for the United States' backing, and if there were not so many shore-to-ship missiles, they would not have intercepted the Soviet warships.
This time, we have to be tough! The Turkish government is also determined. After all, the will of the American master cannot be violated. Now is the critical stage of the war, and the Soviet navy can no longer be released, especially the super aircraft carrier!
Even if an aircraft carrier arrives in the Mediterranean Sea, the US aircraft carrier formation must devote a great deal of energy to deal with it! It is impossible for the Soviet aircraft carrier to pass through the Indian Ocean, only to rush out from the Black Sea! (To be continued.) To find this site, please search for "" or enter the URL:
