Chapter 890(1/2)
Director's Department Conference Room.
Seeing Deputy Commander Tian, General Du and other leaders' gazes shot at him, Du Minsheng immediately came over.
"General Director Du, Deputy Commander Tian, Comrade July of this 'drone combat company' has indeed reported to our combat department before."
Du Minsheng's first words cleared most of everyone's doubts.
However, his explanation was not very useful.
The military region's direct brigade applied for an additional company to be established, which is too small.
Du Minsheng, the Minister of the Operations Department, is so busy that he will definitely not ask about it in detail.
The most important thing is that Su Qiuyue’s “drone combat company” did not apply for much funds from the Military Region Operations Department, but the number of drones has increased a little.
Such material supply applications are very common among the first-level troops of the division and brigade.
However, everyone has paid attention to a question raised by Du Minsheng.
That is, Su Qiuyue and W Brigade did not use this newly established direct force during an internal military exercise in the military region.
Could it be that this kid is waiting for a big scene like today to surprise everyone?
Thinking of this possibility, the cadres present couldn't help but think.
"It seems that we have to see the specific 'drone combat company' before we can reach a conclusion!"
Eucommia ulmoide gradually felt relieved.
Listening to President Du’s feelings, everyone nodded and said yes.
When the leaders of the first and second rows whispered, Wu Kefei's eyes were all placed on the corner at the bottom left of the large screen.
On that screen, the real-time screen of the Blue Party’s “Information Command Center” is played.
"Thunder One, start!"
With Su Qiyue's order, the first order for this battle tonight was finally issued.
When Wu Kefei saw the lieutenant colonel of the Lan party, under Su Qiyue's instructions, pressed the "start button" on the instrument at hand, and his eyes could not be moved.
"Digital Array Radar!"
Wu Kefei exclaimed.
Hearing his voice, Du Zhongping immediately reacted.
After looking at the main computer of the Blue Information Command Center on the big screen, he turned to look at Wu Kefei, who was full of surprise. President Du couldn't help but ask: "Kefei, is this the 'Thunder No. 1' mentioned by Su Qiuyue?"
Wu Kefei nodded and expressed his solemnly: "Yes, President Du, it's it."
"But, the computer at the Blue Information Command Center seems to be nothing except for a larger display, right?"
Gao Aiguo looked at it with his head tilted for a while, and couldn't help asking.
Seeing that he asked what he wanted to ask, Du Zhongping nodded slightly, without repeating the question.
Upon hearing this, Wu Kefei explained with a wry smile: "Chief Gao, something like a super radar cannot be seen from the computer alone. Its main structure is the radar itself."
"It is after the powerful radar signal is collected and feedback is carried out through the computer. Therefore, we cannot see anything in the command center."
After pausing, Wu Kefei continued: "Only by finding the location of the super radar architecture of the Blue Party, we can see the clues at first."
After hearing this, Gao Aiguo immediately spoke, "It's not easy? Aren't there several observers on the front line of the director's department? Let everyone work hard and find the signal source nearby, and the problem will be solved?"
Although Gao Aiguo's method is a little stupid, it is indeed feasible.
Even Wu Kefei nodded and echoed: "It is indeed possible to do this. After all, if a super radar can affect the entire battlefield, its area will definitely not be small and it is easy to find."
After hearing this, Du Zhongping turned his attention to Qin Zhongpei, hoping to ask the director-general of the director's department to issue orders.
Before Qin Zhongpei could speak, a sharp and harsh "whistle" suddenly sounded in the conference room.
Du Zhongping's face stagnated when he spoke. Just as he was about to ask something, he saw that the whole screen was dark.
Almost at the same time, the information group of the director department was also in an uproar.
"Report to the head, all signals on the front line are interrupted!"
A lieutenant colonel from the information group reported loudly to Qin Zhongpei.
It seemed that in order to verify the report of the lieutenant colonel, sounds of electromagnetic interference sounded in the director's conference room one after another.
By this time, everyone is almost certain that they have encountered something.
There is no doubt that it must be related to the launch of the Blue Party’s “Thunder One”.
Everyone couldn't help but sigh: Su Qiuyue, this kid, really never bulges.
The "Thunder One" he mentioned is not an exaggeration at all.
You know, the director's department is more than 200 kilometers away from the exercise battlefield.
Such a long distance was actually affected so seriously, which is enough to show the power of the Blue Party’s “Thunder One”.
While the others were amazed, Gao Aiguo and Zhong Yuannian changed their faces several times.
After all, they are superior leaders of the Red Army's participating troops, so of course they pay more attention to the Blue Army's movements.
At present, Su Qiyue doesn’t take action, and he will be the ultimate move. How should the Red Party respond?
With this problem in mind, Gao Aiguo couldn't help but continue to ask questions to Wu Kefei.
"Wu Gong, what's going on with this super thunder that W Brigade has done? Why can it affect such a long distance?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Kefei showed a difficult look.
He pondered and explained: "Chief Staff Gao, I really don't dare to make a conclusion about this issue easily."
"I originally thought that the super radar technology of W Brigade was similar to the super radar technology developed by the United States not long ago. But now it seems that it is not the case."
After hearing this, everyone was surprised.
Wu Kefei did not keep it in hiding, and he quickly said: "The reason is very simple. The super radar developed by the United States some time ago is more about monitoring, not interference."
"As early as the Cold War, the United States had successfully developed a similar super-large early warning radar called the AN/EPS-115 phased array radar array."
"This radar has a detection and early warning distance of more than 5,000 kilometers, and is the most advanced early warning radar at that time, no doubt about it."
"The original purpose of the United States was to use this early warning radar to monitor the world. But later, due to cost and frequency of use, it quickly gave up."
Wu Kefei stagnated a little and continued: "Decades later, the United States developed this digital array radar, which is an improved model. Its scale is much smaller than the previous phased array radar array, and its early warning distance is not that far... Its impact range is probably the same as the current Blue Party's "Thunder One".
Listening to Wu Kefei's explanation, everyone gradually got some clues.
The impatient Gao Aiguo continued his question: "Since that's the case, why do you say that's not the case when you work Wu?"
"Can's performance be higher in July's 'super radar'?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Kefei shook his head and said, "No, the role of Brigade Commander Su and his "Thunder One" is very different from the focus of the American digital array radar."
"However, judging from the current situation, their radar is more used to interfere with the enemy's radio signals than to early warning..."
"In other words, July's "Thunder One" is more aggressive?"
Du Zhongping couldn't help asking.
"That's right!"
Wu Kefei nodded affirmatively and said with a bright look: "So, I suspect that Brigade Commander Su and his radar weapons were not based on the American digital array radar as a reference, but imitated another famous array radar..."
Hearing this, Gao Aiguo was shocked: "There is another array radar in the world that can be as powerful as the American product in terms of its functions?"
Wu Kefei nodded and explained: "Some are super radars called Duga-3 from the former Suzhou."
“Duga-3?”
After the name was said, Du Zhongping's eyes immediately lit up.
Obviously, this chief has heard of this radar.
Wu Kefei did not notice General Du's expression, he just told the story he knew.
"Duga-3 radar is the world's first truly super radar decades ago."
"Its performance is several places with a strong peak power of about 10MW and works in the short-wave band. Because it normally emits a sharp 10Hz hitting sound, it is named Woodpecker."
Wu Kefei told all the details, "The random frequency hopping function of this super radar even interferes with normal civilian radio broadcasts, amateur radio stations and other transmission applications."
"That was a huge number of complaints in many countries around the world."
"Its reconnaissance range can reach a distance of 2,000 kilometers that year. As long as the Duga-3 radar is turned on, all communication and electronic devices within the surrounding influence range can hear the same sound as the woodpecker every 8 seconds."
"Under its influence, it is almost impossible for radios in this range to be transmitted..."
Listening to the explanation of Engineer Wu, everyone's faces gradually showed a look of relief.
"However, although the Duga-3 radar has excellent performance, it also has some disadvantages. First of all, it is very large in size, reaching 140 meters in height and 460 meters in width, which is very bulky."
"With such a large radar, the consumption of building materials will be noted. Once it is started, it will take 4,000 people to ensure the normal operation of the facilities."
"Secondly, after this super radar is activated, it does not distinguish between enemies and us. It often makes people feel headaches..."
Hearing this, Gao Aiguo couldn't help but curl his lips: "We have all experienced this. At present, this boy from July said nonchalantly, even our director department has become deaf and blind, which is really a headache."
To be continued...
