Chapter 296: Where Did All the Missiles Go?

The sudden mass disappearance of all more than two hundred medium-range ballistic missiles during re-entry is in itself an absolutely impossible thing to happen . Therefore, when the measurement and control officer reported the news, everyone immediately blamed it on the failure of the measurement and control equipment.

The missiles are definitely still there, on their way to the target, but we can't see them for the time being. As long as the spare measurement and control equipment is turned on, they will naturally appear in front of us clearly and vividly, like fish that have just swam out of the aquatic grass.

There is nothing to fuss about.

The officers hurriedly turned on the backup equipment, but before they could press the power supply of the backup mainframe, the observation points in Europe, Africa, the Mediterranean and the Atlantic Ocean all sent reports: all the observation stations lost the traces of these more than 200 missiles at almost the same time!

What does this mean?

NATO's Allied Command Center was silent.

The more than 200 medium-range missiles are not all made in the United States, but also include missiles made by countries such as Britain and Germany. If there was a 1 in 10,000 chance that they would fail, it would never be possible for all missiles to fail at the same time - this is completely impossible!

After all, missiles are not flesh and blood, and it is impossible to have contagious diseases such as colds or malaria. And even if there is a problem with the missiles of the United States at the same time, what about the missiles produced by other NATO countries? It's not the same model, it's not the same material, and even the design ideas may be different, so how can it be so tacit and disappear at the same time?

"Keep searching!" The commander could only give such an order, and at the same time immediately appealed to NASA and the European Space Agency for help, racing against time to find the missiles.

Strangely, however, the United States and its NATO allies have not been able to find more than 200 medium-range missiles, even if they have exhausted all their detection methods.

It's as if as soon as they re-enter the atmosphere, they encounter a space-time storm and fly into another time and space in an instant!

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, the missile had extremely violent friction with the atmosphere during high-speed flight, resulting in a high temperature enough to burn the warhead, and then in a very short period of time, more than 200 missiles were vaporized in the atmosphere.

This is obviously not possible either.

Because the fairing on the missile warhead, which is also a heat shield, can completely protect the warhead from being burned out by the high temperature caused by friction with the atmosphere. Moreover, it is the same sentence: even if one or two or a small part of the missiles have a problem with the heat shield, it is impossible for all of them to fail!

If all of them really went wrong, the arms dealers of the world would have been bankrupt and jumped off the building to shoot targets. And who else can make what missiles and launch what rockets? All of them will be burned in the atmosphere.

Rather than this, it is better for everyone to find a straw and hang it on the launcher!

But in any case, how to explain the sudden disappearance of more than 200 missiles has become a difficult problem on the minds of NATO's allied commanders.

At least for now, there is no one, no evidence, to say where the fuck these damn missiles have gone!

Then the problem arises again.

Everyone seems to have thought of the other aspect in an instant: land-based medium-range ballistic missiles can be found, but what about Tomahawk cruise missiles launched from NATO warships?

Will they turn around and attack their own people like they did last time?

Will they suddenly disappear in flight like medium-range missiles?

You know, compared with medium-range ballistic missiles, Tomahawks fly slower, have a lower altitude, have a longer range, and take longer to reach their targets. That is, cruise missiles are more likely to be "missing" than ballistic ones!

In the command center, everyone was nervous: will the "Tomahawks" go and return, or will they disappear without a trace?

Either of these two scenarios would be painfully a loss for NATO's allies.

If the missiles go and return, it means that these killing weapons are about to turn back and attack their owners; And if they suddenly disappear like ballistic missiles, these nearly 1,000 "Tomahawks" will also make things worse for the US military, which is already tightening its monetary squeeze -- taxpayers' money, to be precise, is money that the United States has painstakingly printed, not specifically for fireworks!

Moreover, if all the missiles really play a game of hide and seek, not only will the NATO allies and missile manufacturers become the laughing stock of the whole world, but the future of many of the commanders present in the military circles will only be dimmed, or even decommissioned.

After all, such a big joke, if the US government does not bring a few scapegoats out to show the public, what should it do to calm the gloating world public opinion?

…………

Fortunately, all the numbers sent back by the Tomahawks indicate that "one qiē is normal", and the multiple electronic warfare planes responsible for electronic tracking and signal relay can also confirm that "the 'Tomahawks' are on the right path, and they will definitely reach the end of the journey"!

This should have been a normal feedback of information, but it became a spiritual support for the rejoicing of the Allied commanders.

Just like the unlucky guy who just lost a huge amount of money in the bank, but suddenly learned that the large amount of cash at home is still safe, although a very ordinary thing is enough to reverse the dark and painful mentality:

- Fortunately, I haven't been thrown away for any reason!

Now everyone's eyes are on the "Tomahawks" flying to targets in different directions. With their maximum speed of 890 km/h, they don't even have to wait long to reap the first results!

At the same time, the US commander again ordered the relaunch of ten Pershing-2 intermediate-range ballistic missiles from the US Air Base in Ankara, Turkey, targeting Baghdad International Airport. The commander did not hesitate to risk the loss of another ten missiles, and he must also find out the mystery of the disappearance of the more than 200 missiles before!

Anyway, arms dealers don't mind selling more missiles to the military, and it is absolutely necessary to find out the reasons for the disappearance of missiles, regardless of the shape of the battlefield or their own careers.

The reason is simple, this time it's missiles, and what about next time? What if a manned Allied combat plane also mysteriously disappeared?

Therefore, whether it is public or private, these next ten missiles must be launched! Moreover, the four F-22 stealth fighters that have just arrived at the Ankara airbase from Asia have also taken to the air, and once it is discovered that the reason for the disappearance of the missiles is due to the human factor -- that is, the Divine Alliance is playing tricks, these four "Raptors" have been authorized to launch an attack immediately!
