Dai Chunlou and Gao Xuguang were huddled in the missile launch vehicle, chatting with each other.

"The same people don't have the same fate, the big chief came to Israel, and he was welcomed by military music and children to offer flowers, and he was invited to a dinner party in the evening, saying that it was to increase exchanges between the two armies, and we big soldiers had to be trapped in this Gobi to eat and drink dew, oh no, this is the desert, where does the dew come from." Gao Xuguang said resentfully.

Dai Chunlou teased: "When you become the chief minister, you will also have this treatment." We are here to fight, not to attend a buffet, and we want welcome and honor, waiting to win the war and return home, I think there will be. ”

Gao Xuguang smirked a few times and said: "We are all twenty-six, and in a blink of an eye, it has been a year since I was born as a sergeant, how can I be promoted to sergeant after this fight, my mother urged me to get married and go back with a few badges, maybe I can find a girl to fall in love, my little sister said, the girls in the school especially worship us PLA these days." ”

Dai Chunlou also said with a smile: "The common people know that we are the loveliest people, Ha Luha, in what era are revolutionary soldiers popular, we are still professional soldiers, aren't we?" ”

The two young soldiers had been messing around in the barracks for a long time, because they worked harder, and each of them learned a skill, and when it came to the retirement period, the superiors considered that letting such soldiers go would be a loss to the troops, so they were transferred to non-commissioned officers and became professional soldiers. More and more soldiers in the army have taken such a route, it is undeniable that there is a group of people who are born to be suitable for the barracks, and the troops have spent time training them to become talents, and it is very irresponsible to let them go casually, so every year when they retire, there are certain places in the army to leave elite soldiers and promote them to become non-commissioned officers. In the future, the PLA and the armed police aim to build a non-commissioned officer team of nearly one million people.

"I heard that some brother units are engaged in group blind dates, and they are specially looking for partners for us big soldiers, so it is better to go back and talk to the instructor comrades, and let's also engage in such activities."

Gao Xuguang clapped his hands and said, "This is hard to get!" However, I was worried that when the time came, the officers would swarm in, and the girls would not be able to walk when they saw the bars and stars on their shoulders (the lieutenants and colonels both carried bars and stars, and the non-commissioned officers had olive branches and two guns crossed). ”

Dai Chunlou patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "The key to finding a partner depends on the character and appearance, even if it is an officer, it will not be good if it doesn't fit the eyes." ”

The two chatted and farted like this, it was already the middle of the night at this time, they were a little sleepy, but they didn't dare to close their eyelids, this was mission time after all, although they were veterans, they didn't dare to joke about this kind of thing.

At this moment, the alarm suddenly sounded in the launch vehicle, and the red warning light in the car began to rotate and shine, and Dai Chunlou shouted: "There is a situation!" ”

Gao Xuguang hurriedly climbed in front of the equipment, staring at the screen with burning eyes, "It was the early warning satellite that discovered the situation in advance, four theater ballistic missiles were launched in the western region of Iraq, judging that it should be Hussein missiles, and the ballistic target is pointed at Israel, it seems that it is either Tel Aviv or Haifa or something." ”

In order to build China's anti-ballistic weapons defense network, Qi Yiming has built a complete early warning satellite system, with more than a dozen satellites specializing in detecting ballistic missiles monitoring the earth around the clock. In participating in the Gulf War this time, the military deliberately placed two early-warning satellites on top of the Gulf to detect and prevent Iraq's missile threat.

Dai Chunlou laughed, "Unfortunately, Iraq's missile forces have run into us!" ”

The two of them were talking and laughing just now, and at this moment they had quickly entered the state of battle, and their faces were not only the seriousness of soldiers, but also a strong sense of confidence and excitement. The early warning satellites discovered the enemy situation mainly to give the missile units a reaction time, and the missiles had not yet appeared on the phased array radar of the Hongqi-9 system.

"The target has entered the radar detection range, and the lock is successful!" The Hongqi-9 long-range surface-to-air missile system they control is actually an upgraded version of the base after entering Lv2, and the most important change is to enhance the electronic level of the system, and its phased array radar adopts the fully coherent inter-pulse frequency agility (FA) technology to eliminate aiming interference, and has excellent spatial selection ability for the main beam and sidelobe cancellation antennas; It has the ability to resist clutter interference, deceptive interference, eliminate negative interference, and decoy anti-radiation missiles; In addition, due to the extremely powerful power of the transmitter, it has a very effective "burn-through ability", which can completely suppress some small and medium-power electronic jammers, and the comprehensive electronic countermeasure (ECCM) ability is extremely strong.

In addition, the detection and tracking capabilities of SJ phased array radar have also been greatly improved, and it has the powerful ability to track 180 targets within 350 kilometers and below Mach 7.

The improvement of the missile itself is mainly to enhance the missile's ability to intercept ballistic targets, so that the Hongqi-9 has changed from an air defense weapon with anti-ballistic missile capability to a general-purpose air defense missile that can flexibly fight winged vehicles and ballistic targets.

In the command vehicle of the missile battalion, the air defense commander immediately assigned the target of attack manually, and he did not have to pick up the communicator to speak with his mouth, but could directly drag several different targets to a small box representing different launch vehicles on the touch-screen display.

Gao Xuguang shouted: "The target of the attack has been obtained, waiting to enter the firing range." ”

The radar detection and tracking range of the Hongqi-9 system itself is greater than the range of the missile, so after the target is locked, they have to wait for the target to enter the range. The entire missile unit is on high alert, the launch canisters are already in an upright state, and the cable erection, oil engines, and so on have long been ready, so as long as they are within range, the air defense system will be able to intercept and respond.

"Target B, number of interceptor missiles: 4, launch!" Dai Chunlou pressed the red button on the operation interface in front of him hard.

In fact, this round of missile attacks by Iraq is not very easy to prevent, they are extremely cunning to launch four Hussein missiles at almost the same time, and the truth on the battlefield is that the side that is always on the defensive is more troublesome. Iraq only needs to launch four missiles at the same time, but the anti-aircraft missile battalion has to put more effort into intercepting these four missiles.

A missile was cold-launched in the sleeve of the launch vehicle, and then ignited in the air and flew into the air, only a short pause, the second, third, and fourth missiles rose into the air one after another, and the launch vehicle of Dai Chunlou and Gao Xuguang instantly launched all the missiles in the entire vehicle. Ballistic targets generally fly faster and are more difficult to intercept than winged vehicles, so the number of interceptor missiles launched is usually twice that of winged vehicles.

The flying anti-aircraft missile carries out an early attack with inertial guidance, and turns on the active radar at the end to search for the enemy target.

In fact, although Iraq's Hussein missile is much less powerful than the Soviet Union's Scud, Iraq's redesign of the Scud missile has also affected the accuracy of the anti-aircraft missile. Iraq redesigned the Soviet-designed Scud missile to make it faster, and as a result, the changes weakened the missile's body, making it more likely that the missile would shatter during re-entry. The shattered body of the projectile undoubtedly makes it necessary for the anti-aircraft missile to identify more targets, which is a big problem for the American Patriot, but not so lethal for the Hongqi-9. The Hongqi-9 can correctly judge which one is a real missile in a number of ways.

The first of the four anti-aircraft missiles fired by Dai Chunlou and Gao Xuguang flew over their heads and missed the target, but the second hit the warhead of the Hussein missile, causing the ballistic missile to explode in the air and successfully destroy a surface-to-surface missile that threatened Israel.

Other launchers in the missile battalion also made contributions, destroying all the Hussein missiles launched by Iraq.

The brothers Dai Chunlou and Gao Xuguang clapped their hands in celebration, and a sense of accomplishment arose, and Gao Xuguang also nagged and said: "If you take down a missile, our sergeant will be a sure thing!" ”

Dai Chunlou said with a smile: "Maybe your daughter-in-law will also be sure of it, and when you tell the girl about your brave shooting of Iraqi missiles on a date, people will definitely worship you to death." ”

While the two were happily enjoying the joy of victory, another buzzing siren sounded from the launch vehicle.

"What, still coming?" Early warning satellites have once again detected signs of missile firing from the Iraqi side, this time four of them, slightly cheaper, but presumably in Israeli residential areas and other civilian installations.

"The missile is empty, what should I do?" Gao Xuguang exclaimed, although they are not protecting their motherland and people, but since they have been assigned such a task, they have to think about the people here, and if they are broken by the Iraqi missile forces, it will be a really annoying thing.

Dai Chunlou was quite calm and said: "Our battalion still has two cars, and there is still one of our battalions in the south of Haifa. ”

Gao Xuguang shook his head again and again: "Can Lao Mei be trusted?" A total of one missile has been stopped before, and no missiles have been fired just now. ”

Dai Chunlou said: "Maybe the above has been coordinated, let us come." Anyway, now is not the time for us to worry, believe in your comrades-in-arms, even if you don't believe in Lao Mei, the comrades of the 9th battalion are equally reliable. ”

Gao Xuguang touched his nose and said with a smile: "Yes, the 9th Battalion won us in two competitions, if we lose on the battlefield this time, we won't be able to raise our heads and be human when we go back in the future." "In fact, the 9th Battalion was sent directly by Qi Yiming to the Red Police Fighter Unit of the Air Force, so it has always maintained a relatively high level of combat readiness.

Both remained silent, praying in their hearts that their comrades-in-arms would give their strength. Their comrades-in-arms did not disappoint them, the 9th Battalion also directly shot down four missiles from western Iraq, and the PLA Air Force missile unit completed a good record of eight shots and eight hits, counting the previous results in Saudi Arabia, the interception success rate was as high as more than 94 percent.
