Dr. Liang looked at the writing, drawing, and watch, and said to the captain, "The preparations are almost complete, and we can start experimenting." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The captain immediately said: "Okay! ”

Zheng He is undergoing sea trials, and the most important task is to test various performances, from power to weapons, and thousands of large and small tests. Therefore, compared with ships such as the Datang battleship in service, the sea trials of the Zheng He took a long time and the task was heavy.

Today, the main test task of the Zheng He is to test the combat effectiveness of the ship-borne Hongqi-2 anti-aircraft missile. This Hongqi-2 is not the other Hongqi-2, and there is basically not much resemblance except that the name is the same as that of the other plane. Since the beginning of the research and development, the Hongqi-2 has been developed with the ship-based air defense missile as the positioning, and pursues good adaptability, high reliability, and small size and weight on the ship. However, in fact, later, the Air Force brought this missile to the ground to carry out battlefield air defense missions.

The test will remotely control a small target aircraft into the Zheng He's air defense circle, and the Zheng He will use its own ship-based radar to detect the entry of hostile aircraft and use ship-based anti-aircraft missiles to shoot it down. In the design, if the target aircraft flew over the Zheng He, it would be tantamount to a technical failure. If it was a real enemy plane, it would probably have dropped the bomb at this time. The purpose of equipping missile destroyers with anti-aircraft missiles is to expand their air defense circle and make themselves safer. If at a distance of several kilometers the Zheng He could not defend itself against the enemy in the air, then it was clear that the test was a failure.

Zheng He had been fully prepared at this time, which was obviously a little different from the actual battle, but the focus of the test itself was to test the normal use and effectiveness of the weapon. During this period, other aircraft will not fly into the detection range of the Zheng He, because at this time, the Datang Navy obviously does not have a communication data link and a friend or foe identification system, so Zheng He has no way to distinguish which is the real target.

The first part of this test was whether Zheng He's radar department could successfully capture the target. The air defense warning radar is rotating, and the target aircraft is actually a slightly larger model aircraft, and Datang can't make a particularly advanced version now, that is a drone.

"Azimuth 0-7-2, distance 67 km, UFO detected approaching, speed 107 knots." The radar soldiers stared at the screen with their eyes, there are still a lot of talent reserves in the Datang Navy in this position, after all, the Datang Navy has been playing radar for many years, although the radar on the Zheng He has advanced a lot, but the principle has not changed much.

The detection range of the air defense radar is beyond the range of the air defense missile, and the radar crew is focused on the approaching "enemy." The radar chief used the ship's telephone to inform the water control department to prepare for engagement.

The water diversion department in charge of anti-aircraft missiles is now half military personnel and half scientific research personnel, and many departments on the ship are now like this, and it will not be completely taken over by the navy until the sea trials are over, when the Zheng He is officially listed.

The Hongqi-2 anti-aircraft missile mainly uses semi-active radar guidance, that is, it uses irradiated radar to aim at enemy targets all the time, and the intermediate process cannot be interrupted. For air combat, this guidance mode is pretty/, but in the case of naval warfare it is much better. Datang's earliest radio command guidance has produced many guided bombs for the Air Force, but this guidance mode is easy to be interfered with, not even necessarily from the enemy. Unintentional use of semi-active radar guidance is somewhat more reliable. Of course, semi-active radar guidance cannot attack several targets at the same time.

There are two dual-arm anti-aircraft missile launchers on the Zheng He, but only two irradiation indicator radars are actually installed, so Zheng He can only attack two targets at a time.

In today's war situation, with a number of warships and carrier-based aircraft of the aircraft carrier itself, this air defense strength is quite sufficient.

There was only one target in the test, so Zheng He only needed to attack this target aircraft.

After the target plane entered the firing range, the water diversion department aimed the irradiation radar at the target plane and quickly fired an anti-aircraft missile. On the battlefield of the real future, it may be that multiple missiles will attack an aircraft, but at this time the Navy only wants to test the combat effectiveness and reliability of missiles.

Strictly speaking, this target plane flies much slower than an ordinary aircraft, which makes the anti-aircraft missile a little more troublesome.

The Hongqi-2 missile was issued on the order of the captain of the ship, dragging a thick smoke and rushing towards the target aircraft. This shot was very beautiful, and the missile exploded very close to the target aircraft, not because it did not hit the target, but because the Hongqi-2 used a fragmentation warhead as an anti-aircraft missile, and a large number of fragments released after the explosion could effectively destroy the enemy's aircraft within a range.

The target plane was immediately destroyed by a large number of flying fragments as if it had been shot at the head with a Remington shotgun.

"The target was successfully destroyed, and the test was successful!"

Everyone on board the Zheng He also celebrated each other, and each time they completed a test, it meant that the Zheng He was one step closer to officially becoming an army. Previously, Zheng He had completed the launch test of anti-ship missiles, and the Tang people specially dragged a frigate from the United States from the east coast to let Zheng He use anti-ship missiles to attack her outside the line of sight.

The YJ-1 shaped warhead anti-ship missile launched by the Zheng He hit the target with one shot, causing serious damage to the ship, causing the frigate to immediately begin to sink. After many tests and evaluations, the Navy believes that the power of the YJ-1 anti-ship missile is sufficient for this era. The Zheng He, which is less than 6,000 tons, can single-handedly pick up a battleship of more than 20,000 tons at a long distance with an anti-ship missile with a superior hit rate.

The Zheng He can run at a speed of 34.5 knots, and no European capital ship can keep up with her. Coupled with her ability to attack outside the line of sight, the radar has the ability to detect enemies in advance, so that this new warship will not be afraid to face multiple enemies of several times its own tonnage alone, and there is a chance to win the battle.

The Zheng He-class destroyers will all be deployed in the Eastern Pacific Fleet (formerly the Home Fleet), which is an experimental new fleet that has been reduced from the largest fleet in the Navy to the smallest fleet now, but it is also the newest fleet. In addition to the destroyers that soon entered the ranks, the fleet had 2 aircraft carriers, 4 heavy cruisers and 4 light cruisers, 12 frigates, 8 submarines, and was no longer equipped with battleships, but with more versatile destroyers as the main defense force of aircraft carriers. This new fleet will focus more on air strike capabilities than on artillery capabilities. After the success of the fleet's pilot, the carrier strike group model will be extended to other fleets.
