What conditions are needed to attack an aircraft carrier battle group

Attack carriers are generally long-range missiles.

The attack can also be a concentrated bombing of the aircraft at a distance. The planes are simply put on together, as long as there are enough of them. Let's talk about missiles:

Conditions:1. The missile has strong armor-piercing and ** capabilities.

Because the armor of the aircraft carrier is thick, and the general ** cannot produce a routing blow. If you just make a hole in the aircraft carrier and put some water in, it will not have much effect, because it has multiple waterproof compartments inside, and closing the gate will limit the water intake to a small area. Unless several missiles hit at the same time (such is the effect of concentrated bombing by aircraft), and then multiple silos are flooded, and the aircraft carrier sinks.

Let me give you a brief introduction. All we can get into is something public, and as for how to break it, hehe, the military thinks more thoroughly.

There are three types of aircraft carriers: single aircraft carrier, double aircraft carrier and triple aircraft carrier battle group. In the general combat area, a battle group consisting of one aircraft carrier as the core is usually used, equipped with four anti-aircraft missile cruisers, four anti-submarine destroyers, and one or two attack-type nuclear submarines.

The carrier-based aircraft of a single aircraft carrier battle group can control the sea and air area of 800-1,000 square kilometers; The four single-carrier battle groups can control more than 960,000 square kilometers of sea and airspace when they work together. When participating in a war in a medium threat zone, a battle group with 2 aircraft carriers as the core, 8 anti-aircraft cruisers and destroyers, 4 anti-submarine destroyers and frigates, and 2 4 attack nuclear submarines are usually used.

When engaged in a large-scale conventional war, a battle group is usually formed with three aircraft carriers as the core, accompanied by nine anti-aircraft missile cruisers and destroyers, 14 anti-submarine destroyers and frigates, and five or six attack nuclear submarines. Carry out large-scale coordinated operations of air-ship integration.

Assault on land.

Although the aircraft carrier battle group has comprehensive combat capabilities such as surface, submarine, anti-air, and electronic, it is not invulnerable.

First of all, the aircraft carrier battle group has a large lineup, with obvious physical characteristics such as electromagnetic, infrared, sound field, and thermal field, and is vulnerable to attack.

Second, the combat capability of the aircraft carrier battle group will change with the change of environmental factors, such as the decline in the maneuverability of the aircraft carrier battle infiltration group in the coastal waters with complex terrain and many islands and reefs, which is not conducive to anti-submarine warfare.

The defense capability is significantly reduced when replenishing at sea, which creates conditions for the enemy to strike at them. In addition, satellite positioning, mine blockade, long-range raids, and electronic countermeasures are also effective methods for dealing with aircraft carrier battle groups.

At present, the attack and defense capabilities of a US aircraft carrier battle group are complex. Roughly speaking, it relies on aircraft carrier-borne fighters, attack aircraft, AWACS aircraft, anti-submarine aircraft or *** to attack, defend or search for the enemy hundreds of kilometers away from the aircraft carrier.

Other combat ships have the primary priority of protecting the operational safety of aircraft carriers, followed by supporting the attack mission of the aircraft carrier and undertaking the search and rescue of personnel. The role of the Ship Strike Group includes protecting the use and safety of sea transport lanes.

Protection of amphibious forces in transport and mission performance.

Cooperate with land-based aircraft to form and maintain air superiority in a specific area. Guess that the means of a show of force meet the needs of national interests.

Take, for example, the American aircraft carrier battle group:

1. One to three aircraft carriers.

Aircraft carriers offer the United States** many options, from a simple show of force to launching attacks on a wide range of targets. Aircraft carriers also allow aircraft to avoid the need to worry about using airports, lanes, and airspace in other countries. Aircraft carriers can also provide long-term support for other forces.

But the aircraft carrier is not the flagship of the fleet, and in the US Navy aircraft carrier battle group, the flagship is the Ticonderoga-class cruiser.

2. One or two missile cruisers.

With Ticonderoga-class cruisers equipped with the Aegis system. As the escort center of the aircraft carrier battle group, the cruiser provides a variety of combat capabilities such as air defense, anti-ship and anti-submarine, and is also the flagship of the entire aircraft carrier battle group. There are also Tomahawk cruise missiles on board, which have the ability to strike ground targets at long ranges.

3. Two or three missile destroyers.

It is an Ali Burke-class guided missile destroyer in active service, which also uses the Aegis system. These destroyers assist the cruisers in the fleet to extend the range of the defense ring and are used for anti-aircraft, anti-submarine and anti-ship operations.

4. A frigate.

It is a Perry-class missile frigate in active service.

5. One or two attack submarines.

In active service are Los Angeles-class submarines. It is used to support the fleet's vigilance and combat against surface or underwater targets. It can also use its submarine-launched Tomahawk cruise missiles against land targets.

6. One to three supply ships.

Today, the attack and defense capabilities of a U.S. aircraft carrier battle group are complex. Roughly speaking, aircraft carrier-delivered fighters, attack aircraft, AWACS, anti-submarine aircraft or *** are used to attack, defend or search for the enemy hundreds of kilometers away from the aircraft carrier. Other combat ships have the primary task of protecting the operational safety of aircraft carriers.

The main carrier-based aircraft equipped with the USS Ford, the most advanced aircraft carrier in the United States, is the F-35C, with a total of 75 aircraft. The US "Nimitz"-class aircraft carrier formation generally consists of one aircraft carrier, two or three air defense cruisers or destroyers, two or three anti-submarine destroyers, one or two attack nuclear submarines, and one or two logistics support ships.

<> "Why do aircraft carriers take the form of battle group formations?

An aircraft carrier is actually a "floating sea airfield" that is expensive to build and has large targets, and is undoubtedly an important target for enemy attacks in wartime. Therefore, the aircraft carrier naturally cannot fight alone, and needs to be equipped with some frigates and even material ships, which forms an "aircraft carrier battle group".

How an aircraft carrier battle group is organized depends on the specific tasks of the task force, and its forms are diverse, and various ships have their specific functional roles in the aircraft carrier battle group. As a rule, aircraft carrier-based aircraft perform combat missions both on land and at sea. Cruisers in battle groups mainly complete air defense operations, protecting aircraft carriers and other ships from air threats.

The cruiser is armed with ship-to-ship missiles and light airborne multi-purpose systems (LAMPS) for conducting underwater warfare ***.

Destroyers take one of the sea-to-air antisubmarine warfare operations as their main combat mission in the formation, and at the same time have the other two combat capabilities, and they are the protectors of the battle group. Although frigates have the same or similar combat capabilities as destroyers, they mainly carry out anti-submarine missions in combat.

Generally speaking, the "aircraft carrier battle group" organized by the US Navy consists of one aircraft carrier, one or two cruisers, four or six destroyers, and one or two supply ships. In the case of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, nuclear-powered cruisers are equipped, and nuclear-powered attack submarines may also be equipped with 1 or 2 escorts.

It is important to note that an aircraft carrier battle group does not necessarily have only one aircraft carrier. In areas of tension, the U.S. Navy uses two aircraft carriers to form battle groups; In more temperate areas, recommissioned battleships, along with cruisers and destroyers, were dispatched to form surface ship battle groups (SAGs).
