Chapter 901: Move

Let's see you on the official account

"Next we take turns to turn on, the Chinese fighters are too fast, climb altitude, ready to launch Sparrow missiles. ”

The voice of the squadron leader commanding the formation came from Blake's helmet, and the brief exchange just now had already made the basic situation clear to both sides. On the opposite side, it is likely that China's Jian-8 fighter jet launched a passive anti-radiation mode far beyond the air-to-air missile under the double two indicators, the purpose is to disrupt the guidance process of the extreme range of the immortal bird, and it is too difficult for the first round of the immortal bird to achieve results.

Compared to the AIM-54, which placed more emphasis on volleying performance, the Sparrow proved to be a more suitable air supremacy weapon in the Gulf War. The new wireless signaling system used by the Sparrow allows the F-14 to maintain guidance capability in the middle of the missile launch. Even if the target aircraft maneuvers violently, the missile can still ensure locking, and together with the terminal guidance of the missile itself, the whole process of tracking is basically achieved. Blake judged that these non-stop J-8s would soon enter the range of the Sparrows.

Moreover, because the F-14D is equipped with an advanced battlefield data link, it is completely possible to take turns to boot and guide tactics after marshalling, and the anti-radiation missiles on the opposite side can only stare dryly.

"Okay, that's it. Blake gently pulled the joystick, and the F-14 under his crotch began to climb rapidly.

However, unexpectedly, the J-8 fighter that launched the missiles on the opposite side fired 6 more high-speed large missiles that looked the same as just now, and then began to accelerate and turn to climb. Looking at the Eagle Eye radar screen in the rear, these planes actually pulled an overload of 3~4G, accelerated to double 2.3, and then turned around.

The six missiles fired in this round were not high-throw ballistics, but faster low-flat ballistics, and there was also no alarm sound for radar signal locking.

“Fxxk!“ Blake, who was frightened into a cold sweat, no longer dared to guess whether it was passive guidance or infrared bombs, or the near-fast combat method introduced in the Chinese exchange. Immediately ordered, ditch all plug-ins, including the Phoenix and Rattlesnake, and make a 39-way turn and dodge the attack.

The Eagle Strike 91 itself has the ability to accelerate more than Mach 3, and the flat-headed Baye accelerates to Mach 2 at an altitude of 20,000 meters and then throws it out, the speed is of course very touching. Moreover, judging from the radar echo, the size of the YJ-91 does not look like an air-to-air bomb -- the air-to-air bomb is not so big! With the ability of the eighth master, each plane can only carry one, and no matter how you look at it, it is an anti-ship bomb!

To tell the truth, this work is really not so easy to do if it weren't for the eighth master. The Nominal Mach of the Eighth Master and the Mach of the American Standard are not the same thing, the performance of the Chinese and Soviet aircraft is obtained in the state of bombs, while the American standard is generally obtained in the state of semi-oil.

This is not surprising, China's aircraft research and development system inherited from the Soviet Union, and the Soviet aircraft were built for the purpose of carrying bombs. If the MiG-31 or Backfire cannot meet the design target with bombs, what is the significance of their existence? Only by reaching this target can they survive on the battlefield, and can they only pursue the performance of an aircraft and look good when they fly?

Like the double two indicators of the eighth master, the data of 19,000 kilometers and Mach 2.2 is not calculated, but flown by test pilots. In the process of flying this data, the eighth master not only had to fill the tank, but also had to bring two fighting bombs and do four G maneuvers, and he dared to write such data on the manual only if he could fly back.

The two fighting bombs are not large in size, but due to the defects in the design of the gyro rudder of the fighting bomb, its resistance is actually greater than that of the auxiliary fuel tank when maneuvering, and the auxiliary fuel tank is generally very small when it is arranged in the middle line. Therefore, it is absolutely no problem to bring two fighting bullets on the double two, and to bring one Eagle Strike 91.

Unlike the Soviet Union and China, the purpose of the American standard is to sell the aircraft, and of course it is in the best condition when it is named. Later, the American Standard dominated the world, so the standards on paper could not be reached after mounting, but became common sense. Of course, people's hearts are not ancient, and later Mao Zi also learned this hand, everyone praised each other commercially, the eldest brother did not talk about the second brother, only an honest man trembled in the corner.

Of course, the judgment of the front-line Sunset Squadron cannot be wrong, it can only be said that the battlefield environment is changing rapidly, and the reaction time given to everyone is too short. The Sunset squadron judged that the anti-radiation bombs were thrown on the opposite side, which was a completely subconscious judgment, but in fact, the argument was very simple, because there were only six missiles thrown on the opposite side, and there were exactly six F-14s on our side. As for other technical judgments, I don't have time to analyze them in detail.

From the perspective of the rear fleet, this "orthodox" air combat mode, in which the air supremacy is fought and then suppressed by the fleet's air defense and anti-ship bombs, has not been on the menu of the US Navy for a long time.

From the point of view of the fleet, there is only one possibility for the Chinese to threaten the security of aircraft carriers.

That is, fighting at high altitude and high speed, bearing a huge price, entering the range of the anti-ship bomb and launching it immediately, and the carrier aircraft will turn around and run.

This kind of tactic of fighting and running is the correct way to fight in the face of the powerful US navy and shore-based control of the sea, right?

Now that six high-throw ballistics, six straight ballistics, and two batches of threatening signals with a speed of at least four or five Mach are thrown over like this, who can not feel scared?

Both Cat and Hawkeye felt that this was a long-range air-to-air bomb coming at them, while the fleet felt that the opposite side was an anti-ship bomb with a trajectory planned in different directions, which was just a different angle of looking at the problem, and it was completely a normal reaction of people. But the question is that in the face of a bunch of high-altitude and high-speed targets of about Mach 5, can the standard intercept them?

But no matter how messy Hawkeye and CIC are, they can't be ignored.

"15th Destroyer Squadron, launch Standard 2 missiles to intercept threatening targets!"

Of course, the 52 ships of the US-Japan joint fleet will not really line up on the sea during the exercise, like a ship parade.

An aircraft carrier formation will generally consist of only one aircraft carrier, two cruisers and several destroyers, and generally will not exceed ten battleships. The other destroyers would form multiple fleets to stand guard on the perimeter at distances to intercept possible enemy attacks.

For example, the US-Japan joint fleet this time organized the three Japanese escort groups and its own expulsion and minesweeping formations into five subfleets, which were guarded in multiple directions of the aircraft carrier formation.

The 15th Destroyer Squadron, deployed in the waters off Jeju Island, was located in the middle line of the 12 YJ-91s and the aircraft carrier formation, forming the outer screen of the fleet's air defense.

"USS Curtis, Standard 2 six launches!"

Robert Nat obviously didn't care about the coffee in his hand, and with an order, the Curtis Wilbur Arleigh Burke-class destroyer deployed in front quickly began air defense operations. The vertical launch system dizzily threw out six missiles and headed straight for the YJ-91 that was flying high in the air.

Then, when the second batch of missiles appeared, Robert also began to have a numb scalp, and he knew better than anyone that the fire channel of the three Aegis guidance radars was simply not enough to intercept 12 targets in different directions at the same time.

"Listen, if the passage is not enough, don't guide it first, and throw all this shit out to me!"

......

"Damn it, these idiots!"

James Ralph Sasse almost jumped out of his chair as he looked at the diagram shown on the projection.

As the newly arrived ambassador to China, he was invited by the Chinese side to a closed military establishment as soon as he landed on the plane, and then he was accompanied by a special person and thrown into this small room. Good

In this humble room, there is only a table, four chairs, and a projector. The image projected on the projector is the posture of the Chinese side in the tacit exercise between China and the United States and Japan, which is currently underway.

There are three people on the Chinese side, who are watching the live broadcast of the exercise ahead with James at this time.

In fact, in order to avoid miscalculation on both sides, the United States also opened up the live broadcast of the exercise to Chinese observers.

Of course, in theory, such communication would never exist. China, the United States, and Japan conducted completely independent exercises, but they happened to be in the same sea area.

Seeing that the Chinese side deceived the position of the 15th destroyer squadron with six YJ-91 anti-radiation, James couldn't wait to screw Robert Nat's head off and throw it into the crater of Yellowstone!

......

It's just a pity, just like Mr. Lu Xun's famous saying: on the battlefield, it is not to see who is more clever, but to see who makes fewer mistakes.

This rash action of Robert Nat will be a fatal mistake!

Six standard anti-aircraft missiles rose into the air, undoubtedly raising a torch in a dark forest.

"High altitude and high-speed threat signal found at latitude 35 north latitude and longitude 130 east longitude!"

"A high threat signal has been detected at latitude 35 north and longitude 120 east!"

The intelligence officer quickly marked the newly appeared target on the air situation operation board, and the high-threat signal that appeared from the sea area opposite the Tsushima Strait and south of Qingdao was not only highly directed at the 15th Destroyer Fleet, but also the radar signal response was quite violent!

The U.S. Navy, which had been fighting the Soviets for decades, quickly found the source of this radar signal in the database.

"It's shipwreck missiles, and there's the Soviet Pacific Fleet!"

"The signal south of Qingdao is the Sunburn missile, at least four Modern-class destroyers!"

"The Soviets have made a move, these damn × spoilers!"

However, the appearance of the Soviets did not make Robert Nat nervous, in fact, on the contrary, with the strength of the US aircraft carrier fleet, he was just worried that he would not be able to find out the location of the other party.

Robert Nat felt a little irritated by this war without initiative, and turned his head to look at the intelligence officer: "Give me the satellite reconnaissance of these two sea areas, when will the next satellite overhead?"

The intelligence officer looked at his watch and replied quickly without thinking, "It will take another hour and thirty-seven minutes, sir." ”

"Damn! If it's a real war, I'll definitely attack the last time the satellite goes over the top!" Robert Nat was so angry that he had to choose to take a risk: "Release the F-18 of the 27 Royal Hammer Squadron, ASUW anti-ship mount, and order the Sunset Squadron to escort the four F-14s in these two directions, so that these dead leftovers can taste the power!"

Walter Dolan, as the captain of the aircraft carrier, thought about it and cautiously suggested: "Sir, the planes from other directions of the Sunset Squadron are rushing back, is it better to wait for them to come back before attacking......?"

"No, if the 51 Falcon Squadron takes off, they will form a second layer of air defense network. ”

Robert Nut's face was gloomy: "The opponent is the Pacific Fleet, I'm only worried that the attack power of the Royal Divine Hammer is insufficient!"

Aircraft carrier command is actually a bit like playing cards, just look at the Battle of Midway. What cards you have in your hand, what cards you have in your opponent's hand, what you play first, what you play later, how you put them together, and what cards you hold in your hand determine what strategy your players take.

The problem now in front of Robert Nat is that China has its back to the mainland, and there are too many cards to play, and he has no idea how big he will be. Again, if this battle had taken place in the Pacific instead of the East China Sea, the situation would have been completely different. But the problem is that the Americans deliver to their doors, and China has too much advantage at the doorstep!

This makes Robert Nat want to find a way to open the situation as soon as possible, and in the tactical dictionary of the US military, offense is always the best option!

......

"The aircraft carrier fleet of the Americans is like an onion, if you want to cut an onion and you don't want to shed tears, you can't peel it off layer by layer. There's only one way, and that's to quickly cut through the middle with a knife dipped in water!"

"Let's get our Tomcat out of the way, it's time for the final word!"

At the Xishan command post, the deployment posture of the Chinese side on the display wall is marked in detail. Not only the status of individual carrier units, but even various platforms is displayed in detail. Just such a real-time feedback system on the battlefield, to be honest, is really not so easy to build. From such a simple detail, we can also see how big a plug-in China is in the semiconductor field today.

The economic value of the goods sold on the market also needs to be considered, and once the military supplies are released to the pile technology, pile materials, plus the ready-made technical route and integration scheme, the level of China's electronic warfare, few people know what level it has reached.

The old man who was looking at the display wall intently was a little energetic at this time, as if every silver-white hair was emitting light, not at all like what he should have been at his age.

When the two pre-ambushed fleets began firing missiles, it was clear that their positions had been revealed to the U.S. military. So the US-Japanese joint fleet will inevitably release attack aircraft and attack these two fleets, right?

Although there is such a judgment, whether this is really the case or not can only be guessed. Whether it is a road-based radar or a ship-based radar, the detection range cannot reach hundreds of kilometers, and the aircraft carrier formation, which is 150 kilometers behind the 15th destroyer squadron, has no other means to understand what is happening there, and the Chinese side, which has lost its satellite reconnaissance capability at this time, has absolutely no other means to understand.

The absence of China's early warning aircraft has undoubtedly added the biggest variable to this exercise.

"In modern warfare, we are blind without early warning aircraft, and after this exercise, we will be smashing the pot and selling iron, and we must also get the early warning aircraft out!"
