Volume 12 Prelude to the Great War Chapter 138 Extreme Speed Rush

… After withstanding the missile attack of the first wheel, the westernmost multi-purpose ship of the Weigan fleet was the first to activate the radar. Because the radius of action of the forced electromagnetic interference system is about a kilometer, the farther the distance, the less affected it will be, and the Direnpi missile is flying from the east, so the forced electromagnetic interference system is used by the battleships located in the easternmost part of the fleet, and the warships in the westernmost part of the fleet are the least affected.

The USS Orenet aircraft carrier battle group did not have any respite. The second batch of missiles followed. The new address of this site has been changed to: Sishanwa plus 8 four, please log in to read

What's more, these missiles flew from Ranmian.

The radar on the destroyer scanned the force of the incoming missiles with only a small clock, calculated the bearing, distance, degree, altitude, number and other important parameters of the missile group, and then used the small clock to send these important data to the other warships in the fleet.

In fact. There is no longer any need to share battlefield information.

Even if the forced electric collision jamming system was not used in previous battles. The electronic equipment of the fleet, in particular, the fire control radar that guides the anti-aircraft missiles was not paralyzed, since the Cybermoon intercepted the first missiles with maximum capabilities. So the remaining anti-aircraft missiles on the warships in the fleet simply could not intercept the second batch of missiles.

What's more. When the second batch of missiles was revealed, it was less than a kilometer away from the fleet, and the fleet had only a few seconds of time to react, and it was too late to organize an air defense operation. In the face of such an attack, the only way is to use the forced electromagnetic interference system again. Because the scope of action of the forced electromagnetic interference system is about a kilometer of edge, which exceeds the range of activities of the fleet's air defense operations, according to the US Navy's code of operations, in this case, "whoever is present is responsible." That is, the forced electromagnetic interference system is detonated by the warship of the current missile; Sending battlefield information to other ships is just to prepare their ships.

The question is. In the time of the old second, will other warships be ready?

To know. When the second batch of missiles arrived, the warships on the east side of the fleet were still checking their electronic systems, and the fire control systems of some warships were not even connected to the tactical information sharing platform, so they could not obtain the battlefield information provided by other warships, and they could not cope with the upcoming second forced electromagnetic interference.

Of course, the destroyer responsible for the air defense of the fleet will not therefore not use the forced electromagnetic interference system.

It was not the captain or the other officers of the battleship dagger who controlled the destroyer, but a fire control computer with rudimentary artificial intelligence. This computer based on neural network technology can analyze the obtained battlefield information in addition to the program, and make judgments on the results of the analysis. At that time, the radar on the battleship showed about four threatening air targets, and the fire control computer concluded that the remaining anti-aircraft and anti-missile capabilities of the fleet were not enough to shoot down all the anti-ship missiles, and all three aircraft carriers would be severely damaged. According to this conclusion, the fire control computer will be able to activate the forced electromagnetic interference system on the battleship according to the pre-set program.

Of course, the forced electrical collision jamming system is not a panacea.

During the war in India. The Air Force and Navy of the Republic proved it with their actions. There are flaws in the forced electromagnetic interference system. Its impact can be diminished by taking the right approach. Among the many methods, increasing the flight degree of anti-ship missiles is one of the most direct and effective methods.

After the advent of the forced electric collision jamming system, countermeasures were adopted by a new generation of anti-ship missiles in various countries of the world. With the exception of some anti-ship missiles with closed-circuit guidance systems, the most commonly used countermeasure is a very simple control system called a "lock-up system". The working principle of the control system is very simple, that is, when encountering forced electromagnetic interference, a device similar to a mechanical lock is activated, locking the control wing surface of the missile, so that the missile can complete the final stage of flight in the state before the interference. Other words. In this case. The missile turned into an ordinary shell. In order to improve the hit rate, a "lock-up system" is adopted. The missiles have two characteristics, one is a very fast terminal flight, and the other is a straight terminal attack trajectory.

With the increase in the fastest flight degree of anti-ship missiles from Mach 3 at the beginning of the century to Mach Mach until now, the degree is no longer the performance bottleneck of anti-ship missiles, but has become a major feature of anti-ship missiles.

Everybody knows. The faster the degree of anti-ship missiles, the greater the threat to the warship.

If the degree of anti-ship missiles reaches the degree of Limach, that is, the sea level is equivalent to a knife meter per second, even if it encounters the enemy's forced electromagnetic interference, with the help of the "locking system", the hit rate of the warship exceeds that of any other unguided munition. This is not a simple speculation, but a calculation based on actual data. For a missile that flies up to meters per second, it only takes seconds to fly out of about a kilometer, but for a large surface warship that sails for Feng Jie, in such a short time. Probably able to sail a thug for four meters. The length of the old 10,000-ton class aircraft carrier is more than ugly meters, and the captain of large warships of more than 10,000 tons is also about 10,000 meters. Even taking into account the angle of incidence of the missile, the angle between the missile's flight trajectory and the direction of the warship's voyage cannot be sufficient, and it is generally between degrees and degrees. An attack carrier only needs a maximum of three missiles, while an attack cruiser and other large warships can only praise the standard calculation of guided unguided munitions, and the hit of the macaly is very amazing.

Of course, it is definitely not easy to make the flight degree of the missile over the sea surface reach the Mach Mach.

Not to mention whether there is enough power unit or not. At such a fast temperature, the friction between the missile body and the air will produce a high temperature of tens of thousands of degrees Celsius. Enough to melt or burn any material. Because anti-ship missiles need to fly in the atmosphere for a long time, it is useless to apply a layer of thermal insulation paint to the outer surface, even if they are modeled after aerospace aircraft and spacecraft. It can be said that until the end of the century. The degree of anti-ship missiles has only reached Mach. The main problem is that no effective solution can be found to deal with the high temperatures generated by high flight. Of course, the power system of the missile is also a problem. The drag of an object as it flies through the atmosphere is proportional to the square of degrees, and a double of degrees increases the drag force by a factor of four. Increasing the missile's flight from Mach 2 to Mach 1 would require a fourfold increase in thrust. In the case that the volume and mass of the power system cannot be greatly improved, it is definitely not easy to increase the thrust by the old o times.

It can be said that degree and high temperature are two problems that go hand in hand.

The problem is that before the Shu year, no one had connected these two problems to solve them.

It was not until years later, that is, after the anti-ship missiles with a degree of up to the old Mach showed their power in actual combat, that the missile engineers of the Republic and the United States worked hard to break through the "force double sound barrier", and at that time, the engineers of the Republic and the United States proposed a solution almost simultaneously, that is, to isolate the missiles from the air.

In fact, it's not a creative idea either.

As early as the beginning of the introduction of the century, the Russian "Storm" torpedoes used the cavitation technology. The "cavitation technology" is to isolate the torpedo from the water, so as to completely eliminate the resistance generated by the seawater, and increase the maximum degree of the torpedo from the blade joint to the strength joint, which is equivalent to four meters per second. In contrast, missiles flying in the atmosphere would have to use a similar approach to fly faster.

The theory is not complicated, but the implementation is very complicated.

In seawater, seawater can be blown open with high-pressure air. relative to sea water. The density of the air is much lower, and the resistance generated is much less. For torpedoes with only a force knot, the drag generated by the air is almost negligible. In the atmosphere, in order to isolate the missile from the air, a vacuum must be created between the missile and the air. It is not difficult to create a vacuum, the problem is that the vacuum cannot exist naturally in the atmosphere, so it cannot be preserved for a long time. Coupled with the negative pressure generated by the vacuum, it will reduce the flight degree of the missile.

The solution is not none, it is just not easy to achieve.

The principle is also very simple, that is, to use the repulsion effect of electromagnetic fields. The air around the missile is ionized first. That is, let the molecules in the air become charged ions, and they are charged ions of the same nature, and then make the missile body carry an electric charge of the same nature, as long as the electric field is strong enough, the electric field repulsion can be used to expel the charged air ions and create a layer on the outer surface of the missile.

To turn this theory into reality. The biggest problem is getting enough powerful electricity.

Take, for example, a one-sight missile. In the case of an anti-ship missile with a bomb weight of one kilogram, it will certainly not be able to carry a four-kilogram composite battery. Even if you replace it with a force-level composite battery that was born in the laboratory at an early age, it will not be able to meet the needs. Because the power storage capacity of the composite battery is proportional to the mass, that is, to the volume of the battery, and the surface area of the missile is proportional to the power of thirds of the volume, there is no other way to increase the flight degree of the missile by increasing the mass of the missile. In fact, before E, the mass of the first experimental anti-ship missile to reach the Limakh was more than o kilograms. Obviously, missiles weighing as many as a kilogram are too expensive to build for any army. It also does not have the ability to deploy in real combat. To put it bluntly, even if it is fired from a strategic bomber, a bomber can only carry 2 to 6 missiles, and at least a concave bomber is needed to carry out a saturation strike, and the carrier battle group is much higher.

The Republic was able to take the lead in developing an anti-ship missile with Mach 2O because of a breakthrough in related technologies.

Compared with other anti-ship missiles, in addition to maintaining a relatively slender body structure, the biggest feature is in the tail of the missile. From the middle of the rocket corpse stamping integrated motive led out a "tail" with a length of more than one meter, usually this metal wire made of memory alloy is buried in the tail of the missile, and only after the missile is launched, and when the old Mach is passed, it will be extended. The role of this "tail" is simple: to provide a comprehensive electric field for the charged ions around it. To put it more bluntly, the shell of the target is negatively charged, and when the missile flies rapidly, the surrounding ions that are also negatively charged will quickly concentrate on the tail of the missile under the action of electric field force and atmospheric pressure. If there is no "tail", these ions will be enriched to a certain extent, and the new address of this site has been changed to summer: Sishanao plus 8 four, please land on the threshold reading..."The excess electrical energy is released in the form of discharge, so as to become powerful enough for the missile, and the lineage will affect the degree and direction of the missile. With this "tail", the negatively charged ions can release electrical energy here, and at the same time, the movement of the charged ions can be accelerated, forming a strong electric and pressure field in the tail of the missile. The "tail" is several meters long, mainly to weaken the negative impact of opposite-sex charged ions on the missile's flight.

The biggest advantage of this is that it accelerates the movement of charged ions on the outer surface, reducing the density of the air on the front of the missile by several orders of magnitude. As a result, the "discharge" requirements of the missiles are greatly reduced, and the fighters do not need to carry too many composite batteries, so that the quality control of the missiles is within a reasonable range.

Arguably. It's a very ingenious and non-functional design.

This design is not a major breakthrough in theory, but it fully reflects the creativity of the engineers. The new address of this site has been changed to summer: Sishan Cave plus 8 four, please log in to read

The rapid improvement of the performance of anti-ship missiles has forced the fleet's air defense system to be upgraded quickly.

2 Western years "Maher's anti-ship missiles have impressed the countries of the world with the anti-ship missiles of the republic. It was also at this time that the US Navy, which has always attached little importance to anti-ship missiles, accelerated its research and reassessed the fleet's air defense capabilities. After learning that the Republic of China was stepping up research and development of anti-ship missiles up to Mach Dam, the US Navy even more uncharacteristically adjusted the order of the fleet's air defense, placing the outer air defense, which had previously given high hopes, after the fleet's air defense, and then raising the fleet's terminal interception capability to the most important one.

In fact, the only thing that can really resist Mach anti-ship missiles is the terminal interception system based on energy weapons.

Because the degree principle of the 2 Moh anti-ship missile is not complicated, the US Navy has given priority to particle beam weapons when seeking countermeasures, and they are charged ion beam weapons, rather than neutral particle beam weapons that are recognized by the international community as more promising. The reason is simple, charged ion beam weapons are capable of effectively destroying the "vacuum membrane" of the Mach anti-ship missile, which allows the missile to burn up in the atmosphere before it hits the target.

Although charged particle beam weapons have a fatal flaw, that is, they will be affected by the earth's magnetic field and atmosphere, and the range and accuracy are not very high, but in close combat, this problem is almost not considered, and it will not have much impact.

Unfortunately, particle beam weapons are still a long way from being practical.

Relatively speaking, high-energy pulsed laser weapons are more promising, at least already in the modern warships of the Republic and the U.S. Navy. Like charged particle beam weapons, high-energy pulsed laser weapons are capable of generating charged ions by creating high temperatures on the target, which destroys the missile's "vacuum film" and eventually burns the missile in the atmosphere.

The problem is that high-energy pulsed laser weapons have very high requirements for energy systems and can only be deployed on large warships with high-power controllable fusion reactors as power systems, and in the US Navy, there are only the latest "Jefferson". The power system on the class aircraft carriers, as well as on the destroyers of the "Lawrence" class, meets this requirement. That is, only these two types of warships are equipped with high-energy pulsed laser weapons.

The terminal interception system of other warships is either a continuous wave laser interception period developed at the beginning of the force era, or an electromagnetic launch gun developed at the end of the force era. Although these two terminal interception systems are also focused on energy weapons, these two systems can only deal with anti-ship missiles with a flight degree below the old Mach, and cannot at all deal with anti-ship missiles with a flight degree of up to the ugly Mach.

For the U.S. Navy fleet, the most fortunate thing is that it is certainly not capable of attacking in clusters of hundreds or thousands like other anti-ship missiles. Because missiles are produced by ionization

"Vacuum membrane" to reach the degree of Limach, so the missile has very high requirements for the surrounding environment during the flight, and abnormal disturbances may affect the missile and eventually burn up in the atmosphere. That is, if several missiles strike from the same direction, and the distance between them is too short, even if only one missile is intercepted. It is also possible to lead to the effectiveness of all missiles. In this way, when attacking, phenol has very high requirements for ballistic settings, and it is difficult to attack in groups.

In other words, at this time, the six hitters that killed the "Oregon" aircraft carrier battle group were not many young ones, but about four thugs. The reason for the error of the American warship is very simple, that is, when Bibi attacks in the final stage, he will throw away the missile body connected to the cruise engine. In the absence of reaching the maximum range, the body of the projectile will not crash immediately after the separation from the warhead, but will continue to fly forward with a slightly slower degree than the warhead along the course at the time of separation. Because the warhead of the stone occupies the end of the total mass of the missile. Therefore, the US warship doubled the number of incoming missiles by treating both the separated warhead and the missile body as missiles.

Even so, "more than four missiles still occupied the entire attack air jarate south of the American fleet."

Because of the loss of the ability to intercept on the perimeter. Therefore, after the use of forced electromagnetic interference reunification, the US fleet immediately carried out a terminal interception of the incoming missile.

It is conceivable that it is impossible for the US fleet to shoot down all the thugs' many missiles, and there will definitely be losses!
