Chapter 1081: The Turning Point of the Times
"In the information that our intelligence agents brought back, I noticed a description. Thales suddenly remembered something, he said: "That is actually a message deliberately released by Xia Lei, he said that the Rehman Group is actually not only researching and designing one unmanned aircraft, but two unmanned aircraft. The video we saw before, the crashed drone is the Jing Ke drone, and what we see now should be the unmanned drone that the Lehmaa Group kept secret, and there is no information about it at present. ”
Wilshire said: "This unmanned aircraft is the most advanced unmanned aircraft of the Leima Group, and the previous Jing Ke unmanned aircraft was only a self-destructing unmanned aircraft, but this unmanned aircraft not only carried an air combat missile, but she even carried an anti-ship missile, which is absolutely invisible in front of the radar, that is to say, he can easily break through our air defense network, and then appear above our heads and drop anti-ship missiles like us!"
The atmosphere on the bridge became more and more solemn. Many people have a picture in their minds, that is, an unmanned aircraft that looks like a manta ray quietly appears in the sky above the Seventh Fleet, and it flies beyond the distance that can be seen by optical telescopes, which is equivalent to an undiscoverable existence. And it, it can always want to drop anti-ship missiles on the Seventh Fleet!
And this is not what makes them feel the most frightened, but what is the most frightening thing for them is if China makes dozens, or even hundreds, of such unmanned aircraft with missiles or even nuclear warheads suddenly appear in the airspace of the US mainland.
In the huge display screen, the silver unmanned aircraft that resembled a manta ray suddenly launched an air-to-air missile.
"How dare it attack our F35 fighter jet!" A white officer roared.
His voice interrupted everyone's thoughts, and everyone's eyes were focused on the giant display.
At that moment, that silver air-to-air missile hit an F35 fighter, and the F35 fighter didn't even react at all!
Violent explosions, skyrocketing fires. A $250 million F35 fighter jet was torn to shreds, and the pilot was blown to shreds, then turned to char in the blazing fire and blast wave!
"It's—how dare it attack our fighter jets!" the white officer who roared just now stared at the fire on the screen with wide eyes, looking like he didn't want to believe it.
He apparently forgot that the American fighter jets had fired four air-to-air missiles at the silver unmanned aircraft. He seems to represent the mentality of many Americans, I am America, I can do whatever I want, I do everything right, and you can't!
However, the US fighter jet launched four air-to-air missiles without even hurting a single hair, but they only launched one air-to-air missile, and the F35, the fifth-generation fighter that claims to be the most advanced in the world, turned into a fireball!
"Call the Pentagon now!" Wilshire said, "Tell the Pentagon that China's unmanned aircraft shot down one of our F35 fighters!"
"No......" Thales' voice sounded.
In the huge display screen, the huge silver drone completed a tumbling motion in the air, and another air-to-air missile flew out of its launcher.
Bang!
Another F35 fighter also turned into a fireball. It was the same situation as the first F35 fighter jet, the pilot was not warned of being locked by the missile before the silver drone launched the missile, and it did not react at all after the enemy launched the missile.
"No, it's two. "It seems like that's what Thales wanted to say but didn't say.
All indications show that not only the silver drone is absolutely invisible, but even the missiles it launches are absolutely invisible!
When this missile locks onto the target, the target's radar does not react at all, and when it flies to the target, its speed is almost six times the speed of sound, and the existing air defense missiles cannot intercept it at all. At such a fast speed, when the pilot's eyes saw it, he had actually been shot!
"Commander!" said the white officer, who was furious, "They dare to shoot down our fighter planes, this is a declaration of war against us, the United States!
"Shut up for me!" Wilshere, who was in silence, suddenly burst out, and shouted at the white officer: "Didn't you see what you just said was happening? You idiot! If China has dozens of such unmanned aircraft, what will our navy and our air force do to win against others? Launch nuclear bombs! Do you think we are the only ones who have nuclear bombs? China also has them! The anti-ship missiles carried by this unmanned aircraft are obviously modified versions of the Eagle Talon anti-ship missiles, and China's Eagle Talon anti-ship missiles can be nuclear-loaded!"
Once again, there was an oppressive silence on the bridge of the George Washington Don.
The officers of the Seventh Fleet had just been slapped several times, but their commander still had to let them swallow their anger!
In the huge display, the four remaining Hornets fired Sidewinder missiles again.
The results remained the same, all four Sidewinder missiles missed.
Sou!
The silver drone launched the last missile, and a second later a hornet turned into a fireball. The pilot of that Hornet didn't even have a chance to eject and escape, and the silver air-to-air missile was too fast!
The silver air-to-air missile was the last aerial combat missile on the silver unmanned launcher, and it lost all of its ammunition for aerial combat when it was launched.
Thales suddenly thought of something, and he shouted excitedly, "Knock it down!
Wilshire quickly understood Thales' thoughts, and he became excited, "For the sake of America, knock it down!
If it is possible to replicate that silver unmanned aircraft, then the United States will still rule the world's skies!
The remaining three bumblebees looked a little hesitant, after all, this is the work of carrying their heads.
Wilshire then said, "The President of the United States will personally award you Congressional Medals!"
The Congressional Medal, also known as the Medal of Honor, is personally awarded by the President of the United States in the name of Congress, so it is also called the Congressional Medal. It is the highest medal of honor that a U.S. military member can receive. From the founding of the United States to the present, only 123 people have been awarded the Medal of Honor in World War I, 435 in World War II, 131 in the Korean War, and 240 in the Vietnam War, for a total of only 929 people!
In front of the highest honor, the pilots of the three Hornets finally got their hearts moved and rushed towards the silver drone from three different directions.
The silver drone suddenly rose in altitude and flew higher into the sky. The three silver drones followed all the way, but their speed was not as fast as the silver drones.
On the bridge of the USS George Washington Don, a battlefield data analyst suddenly exclaimed, "My God...... It reached a speed of Mach 5.0!"
A jaw fell from the bridge of the George Washington Don.
Even the fastest F35 can only reach Mach 2.0, and this silver drone can reach Mach 5.0!
In the world of fighter jets, Mach 1.0 is subsonic, and Mach 5.0 is already hypersonic speed! Such a speed can only be reached by a missile, but it is obviously an unmanned aircraft!
The three Hornets quickly lost track of the unmanned aircraft.
"Report to the commander, we have lost our target, and we request to return. "The pilot, who took over as the flight commander, made a request.
At this moment, Lieutenant General Wilshire seemed to be ten years old, and his voice seemed to have lost its strength and majesty, "Approval, go back." ”
The image of the three Hornets on the huge monitor disappeared, replaced by a group of fighter jets about to cross the Strait of Malacca for the bombing mission of Da Kuah Island. There are more of them, and the scene is more spectacular.
It was an exhilarating spectacle, but the officers of the Seventh Fleet did not feel the slightest bit excited. In both battles, it was the American fighters who fired first, but they were both completely defeated!
None of the officers who dominate the world can accept such a result, they have always beaten whoever they want, but now they are beaten, and it is a third world country!
"Mr. Lieutenant General. Thales' voice, "Are we really going to bomb Big Melon Island?"
Wilshere's face was ugly, and his eyes were full of hesitation and concern.
Thales continued: "If the Reimma Group had built a certain number of such unmanned aircraft for China, our fighters would have been very dangerous in the past, and even our ......."
Such a concern is very likely to become a reality, if the Chinese army has a certain number of such unmanned aircraft, then the Seventh Fleet rashly bombs Dagua Island, and China will escalate the military confrontation, then it is very likely that all the fighters and even aircraft carriers of the Seventh Fleet will be destroyed!
However, Wilshire was not reconciled to give up like this.
But just as Wilshire hesitated, the observer observing with an optical telescope suddenly exclaimed: "Enemy planes are coming!"
A group of officers followed and flocked to the observation window.
In the sky, three silver Jing Ke drones were flying towards this direction. They may seem ugly, but they are definitely not gentle.
"Knock them down!" one officer yelled.
"No!" Wilshire stopped the officer, and he said in a deep voice, "Don't do anything." ”
All eyes were on Wilshere, who were clearly questioning the decision he had made. If you don't do anything, those three unmanned aircraft can definitely blow up and sink a guided missile destroyer, and even damage the aircraft carrier George Washington Don!
However, Wilshire then issued a new order, "All fighters are back!
"Why, Commander?" asked one officer.
"I believe that the person who is in control of this rack drone is keeping the footage of the drone being taken, and every time we fire, we will be responsible for the consequences," Wilshire said. This was the case the first time, and the same is true the second time, so should we be fooled for the third time? What if we blow up China's Dagua Island? The Filipinos will not be able to defend that island at all, but if we bomb Dagua Island, China will certainly escalate its military confrontation. Without the support of sufficient intelligence, we cannot rashly start a war with China!"
He has the same concern as Thales, that is, the Chinese army has a certain number of "manta ray" drones!
In the sky, the three Jing Ke unmanned aircraft flew around the warship cluster of the Seventh Fleet, but there was no sign of attacking a certain warship.
The Hornet, carrier-based F35 fighters, various types of electronic warfare planes, early warning planes, and so on also returned to the skies over the Seventh Fleet and landed on the George Washington Don one by one. The three Jing Ke drones were in the same sky as them, but none of them attacked them.
Tonight is a turning point, after which the days of American domination of the seas and skies are gone.
