1349: Natural missile defense system

The sky seemed to tremble.

Only by seeing it with one's own eyes can one truly feel the power of modern warfare weapons.

The sound of each missile whistling in the sky was like a thunderclap that roared endlessly.

Among them, the Tomahawk cruise missile's Mach 0.72 speed is the slowest, and the other models of missiles maintain the same speed.

It was less than 70 nautical miles away from the target, and more than 100 missiles flew for 7 minutes and 11 seconds.

The fire control radar could not be locked.

However, there are also infrared, GPS, and optical locking methods for missile locking.

Those sonar buoys that are placed in this sea area and are not electromagnetically damaged by the target ship can also provide accurate positioning targets for distant ships.

At the last two nautical miles, the Tomahawk cruise missile began to climb high into the air.

The Harpoon anti-ship missile quickly descended, clinging to a height of three meters above sea level.

Anti-aircraft missiles remain in position.

Saturation strikes, and cruise missiles attack the top, anti-ship missiles hit the waterline of the target ship, and anti-aircraft missiles penetrate the belly of the ship by kinetic energy, attacking the interior of the ship.

Three modes of attack, in the vision of Commander Lasit. Even if the target giant ship can interfere with the missile's positioning system, even if the missile can lose its ability to steer.

But if more than 100 missiles rain down, how can there be a chance of not being hit?

A Tomahawk cruise missile, weighing more than a ton, smashed down at a speed of Mach 0.72, relying on its own kinetic energy alone, can smash the target ship out of a hole.

Not to mention the target ship, which is really capable of jamming more than a hundred missiles in an instant?

In the combat command room of the Burke-class destroyer, everyone was glued to the big screen. There are Tomahawk cruise missiles on it, real-time footage captured through an optical lens.

On the silent, black-and-white screen, various missile parameters are marked around the perimeter. In the middle of the frame, the sea resembles a bare plain.

When the screen suddenly starts to get too high, and then begins to dive again, everyone in the command room sees a large black dot at the end of the frame.

It's like a rock that grows on the plains, and it grows there alone.

Everyone clenched their fists and breathed for a moment, staring firmly at the black dot on the screen that began to zoom in rapidly.

When the black dot becomes the size of a watermelon, people can finally make out its outline.

Then the picture suddenly began to flicker~

The picture becomes a blink of an eye, and when it blinks for the third time, it becomes a vast screen of snowflakes.

……

When the humpback whale was captured by the cruise missile's optical lens, the humpback whale also spotted the incoming missile rain.

The eight monsters in charge of piloting the Humpback Whale did not have any panic, let alone any fear.

The power of the electromagnetic generator is turned on to the maximum instantaneously.

Ultra-high frequency electromagnetic waves, which cannot be captured by the naked eye, diffuse outward at the speed of light, forming an absolute electronically killing area within two nautical miles. The power was so great that even the spray and mist that was splashed out behind the humpback whale were steaming out a hot steam.

In the air two nautical miles away, more than 150 missiles of various types roared in.

They were like lightning bolts that had been slowed down, heading in the direction of the humpback whale.

In the face of sheer numbers, the Humpback Whale has lost its eligibility to evade.

Because there is only fifteen seconds left to respond, no matter which direction you move to dodge, it is impossible to break out of the annular barrage rain composed of these missiles.

There is only one way to resist.

The strongest and at the same time the smallest cross-section bow is used as the point of confrontation. At the same time as the electromagnetic generator was fully turned on, the Humpback Whale also performed an emergency deceleration action.

The Humpback Whale, which is fully electrically driven, reduced the output of 80% of the electromagnetic engine to zero in less than three seconds.

After the two 200,000 kWh electromagnetic engines lost energy, they urgently "braked" the main shafts.

Of course~

It is obviously extremely unrealistic to want to completely stop a huge ship with a weight of not less than 30,000 tons and a speed of an astonishing 130 knots in more than 10 seconds.

Even a land supercar with a braking distance of only 30 meters per 100 kilometers will take at least 10 seconds to completely brake zero from 130 knots, that is, close to 250 kilometers.

In these fifteen seconds, the humpback whale could only reduce its speed from 130 knots to 100 knots.

It looks a bit like a futile struggle.

The Humpback Whale is nearly 30 meters tall and 50 meters wide.

Even though the bow is designed with a large slope diamond triangle, which greatly reduces the wind resistance area, it is still a behemoth with the same bow size as an aircraft carrier.

The rain of incoming missiles was divided into three heights, and the Tomahawk cruise missiles also climbed to a height of several thousand meters and smashed at them with thunder.

Not surprisingly, the Humpback Whale's bow was subjected to at least one or two sea-skimming anti-ship missiles and three anti-aircraft missiles flying at an altitude of 20 meters. As for the Tomahawk missiles, it depends on luck.

These missiles are not the pitiful rapid-fire artillery shells of the previous frigates.

The rapid-fire gun caliber was 76 mm.

The Tomahawk cruise missile has a caliber of 520 mm in terms of caliber.

The Harpoon anti-ship missile caliber has 340 mm.

And modern mainstream anti-ship missiles have a delayed detonation function, which can rely on terrifying kinetic energy and a high-hardness shield at the front end of the missile body to first penetrate the outer armor of the target ship, and then violently detonate when the missile body flies through the interior.

Even if it had been destroyed by strong electromagnetism, relying only on kinetic energy and a violent explosion after impact, the bow of the Humpback Whale would not have been able to resist a single anti-ship missile unscathed.

So~

In the eyes of those on the destroyer dozens of nautical miles away, the giant black ship was bound to be torn to pieces by missiles.

The eight monsters in the control room don't think so.

Through the external infrared and optical surveillance screens, they can clearly see the incoming missiles, dragging long smoke in the field of vision to expand rapidly.

The palm of one of the metal experts rested on a handle similar to a brake mechanism on the console.

Just when more than 100 missiles were only a kilometer away from the Humpback Whale, it only took one and a half seconds to smash on the Humpback Whale.

The metal expert jerked on the handle in his hand.

This is the handle used to control the output of the "air cushion".

When it was closed, a high-speed air flow was constantly spraying from under the bow of the humpback whale, and the high-speed air flow that separated the humpback whale's huge body from the sea surface was suddenly cut off.

The air flow was cut off, and the air cushion at the bottom of the Humpback Whale naturally disappeared.

Then, the humpback whale, with a terrifying weight of more than 30,000 tons, slammed into the sea at a speed of 50 meters per second.

In the next moment, the sea around the humpback whale seemed to be detonated by hundreds of missiles in unison.

"Collapse~"

The humpback whale struck a terrifying wave up to 100 meters high.

In the next second, more than 100 missiles of various types carried terrifying kinetic energy and smashed fiercely.

Then, they first smashed on the waves.
