Cut that plan? How much less killer do you have to do in the war? Weinberg felt a pain in his heart, but there was no way to do it, if military spending was not cut, how would the economic crisis in the United States survive? You must know that only when a country's economy is developed can it have a strong military, and the move of the Soviet Union to keep waging an arms race with the United States in disregard of the people's living standards will absolutely not work in the United States, and the people will be immediately ousted from power by the opposition parties.

For the sake of the American economy, the military made huge sacrifices ...

Two days later.

Edwards Air Force Base, one hundred and fifty kilometers from Los Angeles, California.

It was a key air base for the U.S. Air Force, a training center for the U.S. Air Force during World War II, and after World War II, it became the most important U.S. Air Force flight test center for research, testing, and evaluation of manned and unmanned aircraft and related electronics, flight control equipment, and weapons systems. Various advanced aircraft of the United States, including the former F-15, F-16, and the upcoming F-22, are tested here. It is also responsible for the management of the Air Force Test Pilot School, training test pilots, test flight engineers, test flight navigators, etc. {{}}

The 2nd detachment of the 9th reconnaissance wing of the US Air Force, which is part of the Air Operations Command, and a full set of SR-71 reconnaissance aircraft, is also stationed here.

In addition, the site is home to the Philip Aerospace Board Laboratory and the National Aeronautics and Space Association's Ames Tregen Flight Research Laboratory, as well as the second landing site for the Space Shuttle, which has landed several space shuttles.

Under the sun's rays. The runway in the lakebed inside the base still seems to be a little reflective, and on the runway, a fighter plane stands silently.

With twin engines, twin vertical tails, and rectangular air intakes at the front, this is the F-15 Eagle fighter that all military fans are very familiar with.

As the main force of the U.S. military's active air supremacy fighter, two high-thrust engines. {Extraordinary Hands. This chapter provides a strong power, allowing this fighter to climb upwards at an altitude of 19,000 meters. Reach a speed of Mach 2.5.

Now, in the belly of this fighter, mounts an unusual piece of equipment. In appearance, it looks like a larger air-to-air missile, so big that it is not just a missile, but it should be classified as a rocket, and at the head of this rocket is a dense warhead and seeker. {{}}

This is an important project under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Defense, which plays an important role in Star Wars.

At present, the military power of the United States and the Soviet Union is increasingly dependent on satellites in space.

Satellites can provide reconnaissance services, and the size of the aircraft carrier formation is large enough, right? But in the middle of nowhere. It is very difficult to be discovered, so it is necessary to rely on the help of reconnaissance satellites, and the other side's missile wells on the ground and the various military positions of the other side are all searched for through reconnaissance satellites.

And want to deploy globally. Commands can be received anytime and anywhere, communication satellites are also indispensable, and various other satellites, such as positioning satellites, etc., are inseparable from the help of satellites in space for military operations between the United States and the Soviet Union.

So. If you want to have a killer weapon against the other party, anti-satellite is a good choice, the satellite is operating in space, its orbit can be accurately measured, as long as the missile is launched, at the predetermined location, you can have a close contact with the satellite.

This principle is very simple, but in practice, it is very difficult to make cāo. {{}}

Because, the altitude of the satellite is very high, and the speed is great! Even satellites in low-Earth orbit operate at speeds of up to 7.5 km/s at speeds of up to 7.5 km/s, and a variety of advanced means are needed to successfully get close to such flying objects.

However, in the Cold War, countless impossibilities will become possible.

In 62 years, the United States used intercontinental missiles with nuclear warheads to hit satellites, and only needed to send the warheads to a predetermined position, and if an explosion occurred, it could destroy satellites within the killing radius, but unfortunately, because of poor calculation, its three satellites were damaged. Moreover, the nuclear explosion in outer space has been condemned by countless environmentalists and the United States has been forced to stop research in this area.

And now, the progress of technology has given them a new choice, using fighter planes, carrying anti-satellite missiles, and using the method of telling the impact to destroy the opponent's satellite!

In fact, the most suitable fighter is the MiG-31 that the Soviet Union is now equipping, which can climb to an altitude of 30,000 meters, where it is almost out of the atmosphere and into outer space, but the United States cannot get this kind of aircraft, and the United States' own SR-71 Blackbird, which is three times the speed of sound, cannot carry external objects. {{}}

Green, the test pilot, climbed onto the F-15 fighter plane, which had already been prepared, and made various preparations before the operation.

Half an hour later, there will be a scrapped scientific satellite flying over the base, which is his best chance.

The cockpit canopy was closed, various electric doors were opened, and there was a roar from the tail, and two high-thrust engines were successfully started.

"Long Arrow One, please take off." Green said.

"You can take off, pay attention to the guidance message." An order came from the tower of the base.

"Understood." Green released the brakes, and the nose of the plane was already aligned with the runway, turning on the afterburner.

Suddenly, the F-15 fighter began to glide lightly on the runway, and then, the nose of the plane was raised, and the more than five-meter-long missile under the belly of the plane seemed to show a hideous face.

Although the tower will not remotely command the US fighter in battle, now, the flight trajectory of the fighter will directly determine whether it can accurately reach the predetermined airspace and launch the anti-satellite missile, so the command of the whole process is very important. {{}}

"Pull up two degrees and continue to accelerate upwards."

"Turn left two degrees and maintain altitude."

The voice of the ground commander kept coming from the headphones, and Green knew that this time he was just a driver, responsible for delivering the things he was carrying to the predetermined position.

In space, the old Solwind satellite is roaming in orbit, it was launched two years ago, and now, it has ended its mission, belonging to the lonely and idle traveler who wanders in space.

Little did it know that it was about to befall a catastrophe.

Green's plane has been accelerating upwards, and the powerful F100 engine bursts out with a strong thrust of more than 100,000 N, allowing the F-15's body to climb easily, climb again, and soon, it will come to an altitude of 15,000 meters.

Although the ceiling of the F-15 can reach 19,000 to 20,000 meters, it is very dangerous to carry out all kinds of maneuvers at this altitude, and it is also dangerous to send a missile that weighs more than one ton, because the air at high altitude is thin, the aerodynamic effect of the rudder surface will be reduced, and almost all fighters, at the altitude of the ceiling, can only ensure ordinary flight.

"Prepare to send shè."

At this time, the secret weapon below, which the developers gave it the name of the small anti-satellite missile, has been systematically activated, the infrared detector in front has begun to be refrigerated with liquid nitrogen, and the laser gyroscope has also been activated, and the rocket engine in the tail is ready to ignite.

"Hair shè."

With the command, Green pressed his hand on the red button, and then, the fire flashed under the belly, and the missile engine ignited, and the F-15 was still in the process of climbing at a large elevation angle, so after the missile was ignited, it climbed upwards in the direction just now.

After firing the missile, Green bulldozed the nose, the wing rolled sideways, and began to turn to return home.

The missile, still climbing at an accelerated pace, continued to rise with the help of the speed of the carrier aircraft it had obtained, plus its own speed, and soon jumped out of the atmosphere and rose to an altitude of 500 kilometers.

Here, in the vast space of space, the infrared probe of this missile is running at full speed, waiting in the direction of the target according to the pre-command.

At the same time, after this period of flight, it not only increased in altitude, but also in speed to eight kilometers per second.

Finally, in the infrared detector, the trace of the target was found!

The LWIND satellite wandered alone, and in front of it, a missile, was rapidly approaching.

At this time, the acceleration rocket in the tail has fallen off, the missile is even smaller, and the whole body is attached to carry 56 small directional rockets to fine-tune its own orbit, and the high-speed information processing machine is constantly calculating the best interception orbit.

Finally, at the closest position to the other party, it exploded on its own into countless fragments, which flew towards the unsuspecting satellite.

A rain of bullets, a rain of bullets composed of countless debris, enveloped the Solwind satellite, and the Solwind satellite was completely destroyed in this rain of bullets.

This anti-satellite experiment was a complete success!

(Anti-satellites, not anti-ballistic missiles, satellites have a well-defined orbit in space, and it is less difficult to intercept.) ）

The news was transmitted back to the Pentagon, and Weinberg knew that the success of this experiment had given the US military a low-cost, fast, and highly effective anti-satellite weapon, and the cost of this missile carried by the F-15 fighter was far lower than that of ballistic missiles, and it would complete combat readiness within an hour after receiving the order.

It's a pity that after the completion of this experiment, these technologies will be temporarily mothballed, because the United States has cut many Star Wars projects.

However, this experiment is very meaningful, because the Soviet Union now has an anti-satellite weapon system that can destroy US satellites in low orbit, and the success of this experiment can allow the Soviet Union to agree to reduce this weapon on both sides, so that the Soviet Union's weapons will eliminate their combat capability.

The meeting between the heads of state of the United States and the Soviet Union is about to begin.
