Chapter 783: First Strike

In addition to the USS Eisenhower, there are also five US warships on the sea, namely the USS Bunker Hill missile cruiser, the USS Anzio missile cruiser, the USS Remigi, the USS Mason missile destroyer and the Leedmore missile frigate, and there is also the USS Newport News nuclear-powered attack submarine under the sea. It has already surpassed the navies of the vast majority of countries in the world.

I also complained that the Americans were confident that even if they relied on conventional strikes, they could destroy the entire city of Laoag and severely damage the forces of the Huaxing Society.

At present, the Eisenhower aircraft carrier battle group is about less than 400 nautical miles away from the port of Laoag, and if you count the straight-line distance, it is about 300 kilometers.

In the bridge of the USS Eisenhower, the commander of the aircraft carrier formation, John Rufus, had a serious expression on his face, he had received a top-secret telegram from the Admiralty, and knew that all the planes arranged by the United States at the Subic Naval Base in the Philippines had mysteriously disappeared, and these missing planes were basically certain to have fallen into the hands of the Huaxing Society, so what the Eisenhower aircraft carrier battle group would face next would no longer be a soft persimmon, but a strong enemy with dozens of advanced fighters.

Through the air battle between the Philippine Air Force and the Huaxing Society, although the pilots of the Huaxing Association were rookies, the piloting skills of the fighters were still very good, and they still posed a certain threat to the carrier-based aircraft of the USS Eisenhower.

What worries John Rufus is that the aircraft carriers that the US Navy has mothballed before can disappear strangely, and if Huaxing will use such a means on the USS Eisenhower, then the carrier-based aircraft owned by the USS Eisenhower will be in vain.

Regardless, however, the USS Eisenhower's carrier-based aircraft will still carry out air strikes on the city of Laoag as ordered. John Rufus hopes nothing weird happens.

Now about 400 nautical miles from the port of Laoag, John Rufus was ready to wait for the carrier battle group to get closer, and then order the carrier group to take off and carry out a devastating bombing of Huaxing in the city of Laoag.

"Commander! AWACS aircraft sent an alert, and a large number of aircraft in the direction of Rawag quickly flew towards our aircraft carrier formation! John Rufus was still pondering how many carrier-based aircraft would be dispatched from the USS Eisenhower in the first wave to launch an air raid on the city of Laoag. The radar crew in the bridge shouted loudly.

"What? Fast! Sound the air defense alarm! Order all carrier-based aircraft to attack the squadron and immediately take them all into the air! Order the Electronic Attack Squadron to take to the skies! Helicopter squadrons take to the skies! AWACS aircraft are also all in the air! Prepare to intercept the plane of Huaxinghui in the direction of Laoag! This is not a drill! The war has begun! John Rufus immediately shouted loudly to the U.S. Navy officers and sailors inside the bridge.

Immediately, the six US warships on the sea all sounded the air defense alarm, and the piercing sirens suddenly broke the calm on the sea, and the six US Navy warships soon put up an air defense formation centered on the USS Eisenhower, and the carrier-based planes on the USS Eisenhower took off one after another to form a formation in the air. The Huaxinghui plane, which was coming in the direction of Laoag, greeted it.

After receiving assurances from the Chinese side, Lin Daxin knew that the United States would not carry out a nuclear strike on the city of Laoag, and his heart suddenly relaxed, and then Lin Daxin began to think about how to deal with the US Navy's aircraft carrier battle group led by the USS Eisenhower.

Lin Daxin pondered for a while, thinking that it would never be enough to just be passively beaten, especially the fighters of the Free Corps Air Force were all placed at the airfield in Laoag, if the carrier-based aircraft of the US Navy destroyed the airfield in Laoag. Or blow up the airfield runway, then the Air Force of the Freikorps. It will soon become a tiger with sharp teeth removed, and can only be passively beaten, and finally wiped out by the carrier-based aircraft of the US Navy.

Because the USS Eisenhower aircraft carrier has electronic planes on it, which can interfere with Huaxinghui's radar, Lin Daxin contacted the Chinese side again, hoping that China would use satellite positioning. Provide Huaxing with the specific location of the U.S. Navy's Eisenhower aircraft carrier battle group.

China immediately agreed to Lin Daxin's request, and Lin Daxin's request was obviously aimed at the US Navy's USS Eisenhower aircraft carrier. Although China does not think that Huaxing will really be able to destroy the US Navy's Eisenhower aircraft carrier battle group, but it can bring some losses to the US Navy, China is also happy to see it; at this time, China still does not know that Lin Daxin has wiped out all the planes at the US Subic Naval Base, and thinks that Huaxing will give it a go with the 23 third-generation fighters obtained from the Philippine Air Force.

Subsequently, the Chinese side quickly informed the Huaxing Association of the specific location of the US Navy's Eisenhower aircraft carrier battle group, and every once in a while, it would re-inform the Huaxing Association of the latest location of the US Navy's Eisenhower aircraft carrier battle group.

When Lin Daxin's cyborg troops approached 10,000 on this day, Lin Daxin thought that he could not wait any longer, the US Navy's Eisenhower aircraft carrier battle group was already more than 400 nautical miles away from the port of Laoag, and if he waited any longer, the carrier-based aircraft on the USS Eisenhower aircraft carrier would first appear in the sky over the city of Laoag.

So Lin Daxin ordered the Free Corps' eight F-22 Raptor fighters, 10 F-15 fighters, 12 F-5 Tiger fighters, 19 F-5E fighters, four F-5A fighters, and six B-1 strategic bombers to all take off to attack the US Navy's Eisenhower aircraft carrier battle group, but the six B-1 strategic bombers took off a little later.

The above-mentioned fighters are all the fighters that the Free Corps can send at present, there are 8 fifth-generation fighters, 10 fourth-generation fighters and 35 third-generation fighters, adding up to a total of 53 fighters, in addition to 6 B-1 strategic bombers loaded with aerial bombs and aviation torpedoes.

In the past few days, Lin Daxin has let 50 third-level cyborg pilots hatched through the ring, otherwise the original 50 third-level cyborg pilots only want to fly 53 fighters. There is a shortage of 3 pilots, not to mention the B-1 strategic bomber, which needs a crew of 4.

In addition, in order to facilitate the command of such a huge group of aircraft to attack the US Navy's Eisenhower aircraft carrier battle group, Lin Daxin also asked the crossing ring to hatch 6 fourth-level biochemical pilots and 1 fifth-level biochemical pilot, and they brought other third-level biochemical pilots to carry out this arduous mission.

A Level 4 cyborg pilot requires 16 kilograms of silver. However, Lin Daxin found that they were indeed much stronger than the third-level cyborg pilots who needed 4 kilograms of silver, and in terms of aerial tactics, while the fifth-level cyborg pilots who needed 256 kilograms of silver were not comparable to the fourth-level cyborg pilots in terms of formulating air combat strategies, and they really got what they paid for.

The fifth-level cyborg pilot who was hatched was called Meng Wei, Lin Daxin and Meng Wei discussed his strategy of formulating a preemptive strike, and Meng Wei also agreed with Lin Daxin's battle plan. and helped Lin Daxin improve the battle plan.

Because the US Navy has a powerful electronic jamming system, Meng Wei suggested that instead of using guided missiles and guided torpedoes, the US Navy aircraft carrier battle group should use ordinary aerial bombs and ordinary aerial torpedoes, and let fighters and strategic bombers carry out ultra-low-altitude bombing with the skillful technology of biochemical pilots.

Fifty-three fighters and six B-1 strategic bombers of the Freiko Air Force headed straight for the Eisenhower aircraft carrier battle group in accordance with the coordinates given by the Chinese side. However, it is not so easy for the planes piloted by these cyborg pilots to get close to the warships of the Eisenhower aircraft carrier battle group.

You must know that the USS Eisenhower has 10 F-35 Lightning fighters and 20 A-10B Intruder fighters on board. These two fighters belong to the fifth generation, and there are also 40 FA-18 Super Hornet fighters belonging to the fourth generation, these 70 fighters immediately rose from the flight deck of the aircraft carrier after receiving the order of the commander of the aircraft carrier formation, John Rufus, and then 20 A-10B Intruder fighters and 30 FA-18 Super Hornet fighters formed an interceptor group and directly met those fighters of the Huaxing Club. The 50 fighters were accompanied by two E-2C Hawkeye AWACS aircraft and three EA-6B Prowler electronic aircraft.

The remaining 10 F-35 Lightning fighters, 10 FA-18 Super Hornet fighters, 3 E-2C Hawkeye early warning aircraft, 3 EA-6B Prowler electronic planes, and 6 SH-3G Sea King helicopters from the USS Eisenhower aircraft carrier also circled over the aircraft carrier battle group.

Only 10 S-3A Viking anti-submarine patrol planes remained on top of the USS Eisenhower because Huaxing would have no submarines.

Soon both sides of the fleet. They met in the skies about 200 kilometers away from the Eisenhower aircraft carrier battle group, and a large-scale air battle broke out.

As soon as the two groups of planes met and each other could only vaguely see each other's planes, the three EA-6B Prowler electronic planes of the United States released powerful electromagnetic interference, causing all the fighters and airborne radar systems of the Free Corps to fail.

Soon, the carrier-based aircraft of the US Navy launched guided air-to-air missiles at the fighters of the Free Corps, and the cyborg pilots immediately released jamming bombs and did various evasive maneuvers, but there were still 1 F-15 fighter, 1 F-5E fighter and 1 F-5A fighter, which were hit by the round of missiles of the US Navy carrier-based aircraft, and all of them fell to the sea.

Then the Freikorps fighters did not launch a counterattack, but continued to accelerate, approaching the carrier-based aircraft of the US Navy, because of the strong electromagnetic interference, the guided air-to-air missiles of the Freikorps fighters could not hit the carrier-based aircraft of the US Navy at a long distance, and could only approach as soon as possible and use their cannons to deal with them.

The U.S. Navy's carrier-based aircraft fired a second round of guided air-to-air missiles at the Freikorps fighters, which resulted in the shooting down of one F-5 Tiger, two F-5E and one F-5A, followed by a third round of guided air-to-air missiles by the U.S. Navy's carrier-based aircraft, which shot down one F-5 Tiger and two F-5E fighters.

As soon as the fighters of the Free Corps engaged, they lost 10 fighters, and the 10 third-level cyborg pilots did not even have a chance to parachute, but they did not make the other cyborg pilots have any fear, and after the US Navy carrier-based aircraft fired the third round of guided air-to-air missiles, the distance between the two aircraft groups finally narrowed to the effective range of the cannons.

"Boom-" A US Navy F-35 Lightning fighter was hit by a cannon shell and exploded and disintegrated directly in the air, and the US Navy pilot on the plane had no chance of parachuting to escape, but it was a third-generation fighter of the Free Corps that shot down this fifth-generation fighter.

"Bastard! Is this the amateur pilot mentioned above? Technology is tougher than ours experienced American Aviation, and if they are amateurs, what are we? ”

"Stop whining, pay attention to your back, you were bitten by 1 enemy plane!"

With a "boom-" sound, the FA-18 Super Hornet fighter piloted by the US Navy pilot who had just complained was instantly hit.

"Oh God! My plane was shot and out of control! What to do? What to do? ”

"Stupid, skydive!"

When the carrier-based aircraft of the US Navy entered the effective range of the Free Corps fighters, the scene of the air battle was reversed all of a sudden, and the biochemical pilots, with their skillful piloting skills, bit one after another US Navy carrier-based aircraft, and kept firing guns, one after another US Navy carrier-based aircraft were shot down, of course, some of the Freikorps fighters were also shot down, after all, the guided air-to-air missiles of the US Navy carrier-based aircraft were not so easy to dodge.

However, the pilots of the U.S. Navy's carrier-based aircraft collapsed, and there were three Freipulp F-22 Raptor fighters, which rushed straight in the direction of the U.S. Navy's three EA-6B Prowler electronic planes, and soon after, the U.S. Navy's three EA-6B Prowler electronic planes were shot down one after another, allowing the Freikorps fighters' guided air-to-air missiles to resume their work, and the losses of the U.S. Navy's carrier-based aircraft were getting bigger and bigger.
