Chapter 1111: Turning in unison
The successful landing of the Soviet Mars rover on Mars is of epochal significance, because the time taken for this landing is only one-tenth of the normal time!
However, this news did not cause too many waves in the world, at this time, the eyes of the whole world are focused on the Middle East, on the Mediterranean, at this time, an unprecedented war is breaking out!
Due to the provocation of the US Navy aircraft carrier formation, the Soviet Navy did not hesitate to launch a counterattack against the US Navy, and two Glorious-class cruisers, firing thirty-two anti-ship missiles, formed four huge formations, flew in the direction of the US Navy!
In the face of this batch of missiles, the US Navy made an emergency response, and the first batch of intercepting forces is the pride of the US Navy, the combination of Panda fighters and immortal birds!
Although the Navy has gradually felt powerless in the maintenance and maintenance of the Tomcat fighter and has to use the F-18 to replace the Tomcat fighter, the Tomcat fighter is the only fighter in the US Navy with multi-target interception capability after all, so the Navy has not stopped improving the Tomcat fighter. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
For example, now, half of the Tomcat fighters on the Eisenhower aircraft carrier have developed into the F-14D type, compared with the original model, the biggest feature of this fighter is the use of APG71 radar, instead of AWG-9 radar.
When it comes to the AWG-9 radar, it is definitely famous, and during the entire Cold War, the combination of this radar and the immortal bird was simply invincible.
However, this radar actually has flaws, for example, most people know that the Soviet radar is five big and three thick, which is quite bulky, in fact, the AWG-9 radar is also bulky. With a caliber of nearly 1 meter and a weight of more than half a ton, this kind of large airborne fire control radar, in PDS mode, has a maximum detection distance of more than 300 kilometers for strategic bombers.
However, in other aspects, there are also great flaws, for example, the average time between failures is less than an hour, this kind of radar needs constant maintenance, and at the same time, the power consumption is also very large.
So, Hughes produced the AN/APG-71 radar, which is an improved version of the AWG-9, but uses the technology of the APG-15 radar in the US Air Force F-70 Eagle multi-stage improvement program, this radar antenna itself is an antenna with low side lobe radiation, and it can filter out the interference waves entering from the side lobe, plus it can use a single pulse for accurate angle tracking, so the anti-jamming ability is very strong.
At the same time, the radar has improved the frequency modulation mode of its Doppler ranging signal, so that it has better resolution for ground noise. The low pulse repetition rate of the AWG-9 was changed to a medium PRF, which has better performance in head-on air target locking, and can measure more accurate distances.
It is an exaggeration to say that this kind of radar can measure the number of compressed blades of the engine of the head-on target, and then know the engine type and the model of the aircraft, so to speak, absolutely perverted.
At the same time, the maximum transmitting power of this radar is 5 kilowatts, which is only half of that of the AWG-9, but the maximum search range has increased instead.
It can be said that the biggest feature of this radar is the digital improved model of the AWG-9 radar, which adopts the new high-speed digital signal processor of APG-70, digital scanning control, and the processing power is six times higher than that of AWG-9.
If it was the previous AWG-9 radar, it would still have certain difficulties in intercepting supersonic flying targets, but the current APG-71 radar can easily intercept incoming supersonic anti-ship missiles, and even, you can even try to intercept some short-range ballistic missiles!
Now, it's time for the APG-71 radar to put its skills to work!
Of course, whether it can be successfully intercepted in the end has a lot to do with the operation ability of the radar operator in the back seat, the radar officer quickly tracks the target, turns into a locked state, and then, the fire under the wings gathers, and two immortal bird missiles fly over!
If it is a head-on attack, the speed of each is Mach 2, then the relative speed is Mach 4! This has to be done by the data processing system!
And now, the new APG-71 radar is enough for this task!
Although the Immortal Bird missile is an active missile, however, this is only the end! Now, relying on the radar irradiation of the carrier aircraft, after the launch of the Immortal Bird missile, it is flying smoothly along the interceptor trajectory.
As if it didn't sense the catastrophe coming, the target missile continued to fly smoothly, as if waiting for the immortal missiles to kiss them.
The ramjet engine constantly sucks in air, the fuel ignites, turns into a high-pressure exhaust jet out, and the speed of the P-500 missile, further increased, reaching Mach 2!
The distance between the two sides is rapidly approaching, fifty kilometers, forty kilometers, thirty kilometers ... The first Immortal Bird missile was launched was even less than five kilometers away from the target!
Interception, about to succeed!
However, at this moment, suddenly, all the P-500 missiles on the sea surface made a maneuver in unison!
First to the right, then to the left, they made a beautiful S-shaped maneuver on the surface of the sea!
Damn it!
A Mach 2 target, performing a serpentine maneuver, is enough to make a lot of radars briefly unlock!
When performing the S-maneuver, they will fly in the radial direction of the radar and will be filtered out as clutter! This is due to the characteristics of Doppler radars, and if they are not filtered out, the clutter that flies in the sky will overwhelm their processors!
And now, the other party is only briefly unlocked, and later, it will reappear in the radar's field of vision.
It's just that this has already caused irreparable consequences!
Relative velocity Mach 4! Even if the target is lost for only one second, the relative distance will change by more than a thousand meters! And to re-intercept the target, to recalculate the interception trajectory, this again requires wasting the reaction time of the immortal bird!
After all, many immortal birds have entered the active interception process at the end of the stage, and the missile-mounted computer of the immortal bird is definitely not as powerful as the computing power of the on-board computer of the Tomcat fighter!
As a result, the Immortal Bird missile, while still flying along its original trajectory, has already passed by the target, and in front of it, the airspace is clear and there is nothing!
Of course, not all the Immortals were got rid of, and the two Immortal Bird missiles aimed at one, there were still some, which managed to hit the target!
"Boom!"
With a violent explosion, the immortal bird successfully shot down the pilot P-500 missile at an altitude of 6,000 meters!
