Chapter 221 Spear and Shield
Intercontinental missiles are benchmarked against Saner, a battle that many countries have always dreamed of, even the US empire has wide eyes. ·
This thing, or the strategic missile defense system it represents, has been hotly discussed for decades, and funds alone have been invested astronomical. Countless people in the United States regard it as the last umbrella, but no one knows whether this umbrella can be relied on or is just an illusory bubble. After all, it has not experienced any actual test.
The military's test does not count. Everyone knows that something can be faked. If you calculate the ballistics on both sides, even if Ah San can use ground missiles to bombard the incoming missiles, Patriots intercepting Scuds also does not count. Compared with five times the speed of sound and twenty times the speed of sound, it is completely different from bows and rifles. Bows and arrows can avoid them, but no one can avoid rifle bullets.
This time I can finally check it, and it is the most difficult mid-section interception.
There is no way, because the giant octopus that had been silent for a long time has appeared in the eastern part of the Mozambique Strait, and the Yongning Air Force's JF-11 fighter jet is still providing air cover for it. In this case, the US's Aegis ship's approach to Yongning is no different from suicide. It can only give up the safest approach and intercept it in the ascending section. Similarly, Pretoria is far away from the coast, and the terminal interception is also impossible. The rest can only be intercepted outside the atmosphere. This is the most difficult part of the anti-missile system. The flight speed of the intercontinental missile with hundreds of kilometers without resistance can reach its limit. The speed of the bullets that were released is like a joke in front of this thing.
But the difficult one is also the easiest to test strength.
Antananarivo.
Amid the cheers of the subjects, Wang Yue smiled and pressed the missile launch button. The two missiles were dragging the gushing trails toward the southwest.
When two missiles flew out of the clouds, the obvious tail flame was immediately captured by missile early warning satellites in space. Due to historical reasons, the US imperialists did not have long-range early warning radar within the effective distance around Yongning. After all, this area used to be as safe as their back garden.
The nearest giant radar base in northwest Australia is mainly used to monitor Chinese nuclear submarines and A-sans in the South China Sea, but even the superhorizon radar with a distance of thousands of kilometers can not detect missile launches more than 7,000 kilometers away, so early warning satellites are their only early warning means.
The satellites that captured the tail flame immediately passed the status data of the two missiles through the data link to the Aegis ship off the coast of South Africa and two early warning aircraft flying from the Middle East. The main computers on the latter quickly began to calculate the ballistic data. At the same time, the fire control radar turned on and waited for the target.
Time passed in a flash, and it only took a few minutes for the intercontinental missiles to attack from Antananarivo to Pretoria. While the United States completed its preparations, their Aegis system radar had locked the target, in order to ensure the success rate. The four American Aegis ships fired sixteen standard 3 interceptors at the two missiles at one time, and sixteen missiles sprayed flames from the launch unit and fired them out at extremely fast speed.
The whole world held its breath.
Sixteen missiles quickly rose to high altitude, and according to the previously calculated ballistics, they hit their respective targets. The first-stage booster quickly detached, and the second-stage booster also departed in a very short time. The missile speed further accelerated, and then the third-stage. When the dual-pulse engine completed combustion for only twenty seconds, the standard 3 interceptor bomb speed had accelerated to more than three kilometers per second, and the 23-kilogram kinetic energy interceptor and booster separated. The thermal imager instantly locked the target, and the lateral pulse engine started to correct the ballistic, and rushed to the target like lightning-fire with the tungsten alloy through the rod.
Sixteen kinetic energy interceptors and two intercontinental missiles with only warheads left, began the brilliant encounter between them in the expectation of the whole world.
It's approaching, it's approaching, at this exciting moment...
Uh, they missed it.
Just like countless sensational TV plots, the encounter in fate instantly turned into passing by.
None of the sixteen interceptor bullets hit.
On the four Aegis ships, in the distant Pentagon, there was a subconscious scolding.
Indeed, one of them failed because this kind of missile did not have the ability to intercept intercontinental missiles. Now the US sea-based interception system uses the standard 31b system. The highest record of this thing is that it intercepted a missile with a fastest speed of five kilometers per second in the test. And no one knows the authenticity of that test. Because it was conducted such a test, it was conducted when Congress thought it was too much money. It was not impossible to say that Raytheon and the Ministry of Defense jointly fooled people. They did not do a lot of such things.
The shutdown speed of these two missiles is more than seven kilometers per second. It has entered the falling ballistic and is faster under the influence of the earth's gravity. This is not within the interception range. The interceptor designed to intercept this level of missile was originally planned to be put into service in 2020, but due to the war with the Atlantis, the military expenditure has increased significantly. This project, which is not urgently needed for the time being, has been postponed. It is unknown when the specific time will be granted.
"It's all about show!"
On the launching ground of Antananarivo, His Majesty the King sighed with his hands behind his back, and he had guessed that the US had set up this goal. To put it bluntly, it was to stimulate Congress and ask for more funds, otherwise he would not have pulled up a missile that was not capable of.
But no one hit, probably they didn't expect this.
The two missiles that had already begun to fly ballistically began to enter the atmosphere in an instant, gradually turning into fiery red under violent friction, and their speed began to drop rapidly. Of course, even if they were reduced, their speed was still far exceeding that of any aircraft in the atmosphere. The two missiles each flew towards their own targets, because the distance was related to the distance, which hit the first hit to Pretoria.
In the sight of the South Africans looking up at the sky, the red light arrows fell like meteors in the sky. Several missiles from South African air defense forces intercepted symbolically, but as soon as they flew out of the launch box, they saw the light arrows suddenly pierced at the location of the Malgash government in exile.
Almost instantly, the flames exploded, and the explosion's shock wave spread violently around. A mushroom-shaped smoke pillar rose slowly. Everything disappeared within a hundred meters of the smoke pillar. When the dust dissipated, only a huge bomb crater dozens of meters deep and a circular ruin belt with a radius of nearly a hundred meters were left.
The niggers who were watching this scene were trembling, while the white people were gloating.
Just as this missile hit, another missile also accurately hit the training camp of the Malgash government in exile in Namibia. Hundreds of Malgash warriors who had just pieced together were blown up so much that they were not even left.
The location of these people was actually provided by the Namibian government to Wang Yue. Namibia is just a very small country, and they can't afford to offend anyone, and even the Malgash exile government can't afford to offend these guys with the support of the US imperialists. These guys who are even stronger than the Namibian government forces, so they can only play like this. Anyway, they won't offend any side, and proper demonstrations will save Wang Yue from beating them.
This battle quickly caused a sensation in the world, especially for China and Lucia, the old rivals of the US imperialists, which was simply jubilant, of course, privately.
They can already confirm through this battle that the US strategic missile defense system is still helpless against intercontinental missiles, at least in the middle, and even Wang Yue's missiles cannot be stopped, let alone those who are equipped with a bunch of real and fake warheads. In other words, at least before the US restarts their new interceptor plan and succeeds, the spear still has an absolute advantage to the shield. As for then, their own anti-missile system has long been mature, and who is afraid of whom at that time!
The arrogant Emperor Pu did not hesitate to swing a big stick at the puppies of the American Empire in Eastern Europe. The war between Lucia was rekindled. The tough-minded Lucia runner-up announced the establishment of a no-fly zone in the east of Lucia on the grounds that Lucia's plane accidentally injured Lucia's border residents during the battle.
Any small Lucia fighter jet entering this airspace will be expelled by Lucia fighter jets, including directly attacking. At the same time, the number of Lucia volunteers on the eastern battlefield skyrocketed, and even some of the latest weapons from Lucia's military appeared in their hands.
The Lucia government's explanation is smuggling.
Since it is smuggled, it has nothing to do with us.
Western European countries are silent, and even Germany is moving closer to Lucia.
Similarly, this battle also established Wang Yue's hegemony in Africa. The entire African continent was frightened by these two missiles. From the distant North African desert to the jungle of West African, all countries understood that at this time, Wang Yue had already beaten whoever he wanted. As long as he didn't want to die, it would be better not to provoke this guy. Such suicides are absolutely impossible to do, including South Africa, including the situation.
Although the Malgash government in exile was not at its headquarters when its headquarters was destroyed, the South African government forced them out of the country later. At this time, the only one who could accept them was the US imperialist. Fortunately, the US imperialist still didn't mind raising more. The Malgash government in exile and thousands of soldiers hurried to the US imperialist to continue their liberation cause.
Of course, even if they go to the US imperial examination, they will still be unable to get rid of Wang Yue's claws.
Chapter completed!
