Chapter 685: Fallen Nighthawk
In the next few days, Chang Haonan closely followed the situation of the Allied operations.
On the one hand, it is to make up for the regret that he was not able to track this event from the beginning in his previous life, and on the other hand, it is also to determine whether the several landmark events in his memory will still happen.
It's a pity that the Torch Group is not a real intelligence agency after all, and Chang Haonan goes to the Science and Technology Commission every morning at most, and it is impossible to stay there 24 hours a day, so the main means of obtaining information are newspapers and TV news.
But that's almost enough for him, who roughly knows the ins and outs......
Three days later, March 28.
Chang Haonan came to the conference room on the top floor of the Commission of Science and Technology as usual.
Although the business of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry is not directly related to this incident, as the department in charge of the development of the national defense industry, it is always reasonable to track the information of military equipment on the front line, and the United States is obviously the country with the highest level of military equipment in the world today, so Ding Gaoheng also took advantage of this reason to organize a routine briefing every morning.
Of course, the content of the briefing can only be obtained from the Intelligence Bureau of the General Staff, so the timeliness will be several hours.
Nearly 72 hours have now passed since the Allied operation began on 25 March.
Although the air strikes were ineffective against ground units other than stationary targets, such as airfield warehouses, due to adequate camouflage and dispersion, the situation on the whole was undoubtedly moving towards one-sided situations.
It is one thing to be able to resist for three days, and it is another thing to be able to resist for 30 days, and if the situation continues to develop, it may not be able to stop for 30 days......
In addition, because it is considered an undeclared war, the media, journalists, and even official institutions in many countries have not withdrawn, resulting in many scenes being presented to the world almost in the form of "live broadcast".
And what Chang Haonan saw was a completely uncut version......
In short, these days, the atmosphere at the briefing of the Commission of Science and Technology is still relatively heavy.
But today, as soon as Chang Haonan entered the door, he felt as if it was not the same as before.
"Xiao Chang, let's take a look at the content of this report."
Before he could sit down, Ding Gaoheng handed over a document.
Chang Haonan already had a premonition when he saw this posture, but he still quickly opened the folder.
"The Americans lost an F117?"
This incident was like thunder in the previous life, but in fact, Chang Haonan was not quite sure what day it happened.
I've been paying attention to the news these days, that is, I'm waiting for this time node.
"Message...... Is it reliable? ”
Out of the professionalism of an actor, he still deliberately made a stunned look and looked at Ding Gaoheng next to him.
"If you look behind you, you'll know that our people in front of us have captured quite strong image evidence."
The latter replied.
Chang Haonan lowered his head again, flipped the report to the back, and sure enough, he saw a few slightly blurry but continuous pictures.
In the night sky, as the light of an explosion flashed, something burning slowly began to fall.
Although it was not close, it could still be seen by the light of the fire that it was an airplane with a slightly strange shape.
"I'll ......"
His surprise just now was just a play, but now it has become true.
It turns out that there doesn't seem to be such a set of photos on that timeline......
Obviously, although the general direction of events remains the same, some details have changed.
And Chang Haonan knows better that in a few days, maybe the whole world will completely enter another story line because of him......
"Xiao Chang doesn't have to be so surprised, right?"
Huai Guomo, who was sitting on the sofa next to him, turned his head and asked with a smile:
"After all, we can be regarded as helping in this matter, according to previous tests in China, the multi-point passive detection radar's ability to find low RCS targets is indeed much stronger than that of ordinary passive radars......"
Chang Haonan didn't answer immediately, but lowered his head and thought for a while, and then replied with a slightly hesitant tone:
"The result...... I don't think it has much to do with the technology we sent over. ”
"Huh?"
A few suspicious glances were cast at him.
After all, in the eyes of several other people, this can even be directly counted as Chang Haonan's merits.
The latter organized the language a little, and then explained:
"Now it has only been a little more than a week since Lao Wu delivered the goods to the customer, and it has been full."
"When the 14th Institute of the Electric Branch changed the 407 radar before, it took nearly half a month in the case of abundant manpower and three shifts, and the customer's side was in contact with this kind of thing for the first time, and the complexity of the P18 radar was much higher than that of the 407 radar, plus we were directly in the hands of the troops over there, and the professionalism of the technical officers was definitely not as good as that of the experts of the Electric Science Group, and there was absolutely no reason to complete the modification and debugging of the two radars in less than 10 days."
Hearing Chang Haonan say this, everyone also felt reasonable.
But in this way, it seems that the little joy that I just mentioned is gone again......
"In that case, could it be that there is already the ability to deal with stealth planes?"
Ding Gaoheng's expression was a little complicated:
"If that's the case, then wouldn't it be ...... for us to toss this circle?"
"Not really."
Chang Haonan looked at the old-timers around him who were a little anxious, and quickly shook his head:
"Theoretically speaking, the general stealth aircraft are RCS optimized in the face of centimeter-wave radar, and VHF band radars such as P18 themselves have the possibility of roughly detecting the target position."
"In addition, now that the first phase of the air raid is coming to an end, it is inevitable that the other side will have a mood of underestimating the enemy, and I read the content of the briefing in the past two days, and I also specifically wrote that the intensity of the accompanying electronic jamming of the other side has been much lower than that of the first day, so that it is completely possible for the air defense unit to pick up a leak, and looking at the situation of these photos, it is obvious that they were shot down by air defense missiles......
"However, after this lesson, it will be more difficult to use similar simple methods to achieve results, especially for stealth aircraft."
Hearing Chang Haonan say this, the emotions of the other people finally recovered a little.
"In other words, our preparation is still possible to be used later?"
"It's nature."
Regarding this thing that did not happen at all in the previous life, Chang Haonan felt more confident at this time:
"It's impossible for the other side to quit because of this setback, wouldn't that be a big joke...... They're just going to get more careful. ”
"I estimate that with the speed of our customers, it may take about half a month to get those two radars right, so let's see at that time......"
