Chapter 403: Violence
A minute ago, on the Kangaroo helicopter...
"What a wonderful ballistic trajectory! This is simply a kind of art. Look, just as the gentleman said before, the missile began to descend rapidly and lowered to a position close to the sea surface. This is because the earth is round, so it can better enter the radar blind spot, so we need early warning aircraft to make up for this defect."
The reporter kept signaling the cameraman to film the missile's trajectory from a distance, while continuing in a humorous tone:
"If Umbrella has its own early warning aircraft and has already taken off, then it is possible to discover it, but..."
Before he finished speaking, eight missiles exploded at the same time.
The sudden explosion sparks made everyone on the helicopter that was approaching the front dazed.
What’s going on? What’s happening?
Exploded prematurely?
Although the distance was far and they could hardly see clearly, the fire from the explosion was still very clear.
The reporter turned around and asked stupidly
"Is it a special program effect? Is it because of confidence that it exploded in advance?"
The adjutant next to him also widened his eyes at this time.
What a show effect!
After all, he was a frequent participant in drills, so Kangaroo and Da Piaoliang still followed him very closely.
As a basic quality, he immediately picked up the intercom and spoke to the bridge.
"Half of our missiles were intercepted! It's impossible to tell what intercepted them! It's most likely a laser weapon!"
Although laser weapons are not frequently used in actual combat now, they have always been regarded as a good development prospect.
As a professional, he immediately came to an incredible conclusion after seeing this abnormal change even though he was so far away!
Umbrella used lasers to intercept the missile!
The captain, who was waiting for the result with confidence on the bridge, received the information that the missile had been intercepted almost simultaneously from both sides.
However, he only knew that half of the missiles had lost contact, while on the other side he learned the reason from his adjutant.
Suspected laser weapon? !
"Impossible! How could this be possible!"
Compared to the adjutant, the captain obviously has a heavier burden.
He used this action to gain merit.
But how could the result be like this!
Half of the missiles were intercepted in an instant? Is Umbrella so powerful?!
But he soon regained his balance. There was still half left!
Then he immediately said calmly
"Turn on window mode in advance!"
The guidance of the missile itself is diverse.
The first step is definitely radar locking, determining the position and launching, followed by the silent inertial guidance stage of the mid-range cruise missile.
At the end of the period, the radar was turned on again in preparation for the final lock.
At this time, the lock can also be adjusted in window mode.
Unlike warships and airplanes, their own maneuverability is not enough to exceed the scope of this final manual adjustment.
What's more, this time it's a fixed target.
However, after the window mode was turned on, they could only see the dense barrage of comments in front of them!
There was no way to avoid it, no way to hide, and in an instant the remaining eight missiles were all destroyed!
All screen images disappeared!
This phenomenon also caught the eyes of the reporters in the helicopter above, whose faces were filled with disbelief and astonishment.
Now that he had seen the barrage of bullets fired by Umbrella, he also realized that this was not a "show effect" at all. Did Umbrella intercept the missile? !
You didn't explain this to me clearly at the beginning!
"Eight at first, now eight. Damn it, they are using us as experimental material!"
At this time, the adjutant beside the reporter also reacted, what a coincidence!
So neat!
Although he felt unbelievable and even panicked.
But this kind of uniform phenomenon, which seems like a show effect, can only mean that the other party has full confidence and full faith!
You can’t blame the reporter for misunderstanding, the show does have a visual impact!
It is very likely that they could have intercepted all of them in one go, but they just released eight of them!
Aren't they afraid of failure and getting hit? !
This suddenly made the adjutant's eyes widen again, and he thought of a very scary possibility.
Maybe they felt that it didn't matter if they were hit? !
impossible!
Absolutely not!
At this moment, Umbrella's cold response finally came over the radio channel.
"There is an old saying in the East that goes, 'If you don't reciprocate, it's impolite. You gave us sixteen coins, and we will give you two in return. Please sign for them."
Just like the initial announcement of Kangaroo's departure, Umbrella also began to give advance notice!
This made the adjutant on the plane and everyone in the bridge open their eyes wide.
Umbrella has missiles?
Who sold it to them? What did the woolly bear do?
"Lawless! Lawless! You even sell missiles! This is a live broadcast, and you will definitely pay the price! Open your eyes wide and be on full alert! Prepare to intercept!"
The captain was also a little jumpy and frightened when he heard the announcement.
The distance is now nearly a hundred nautical miles, which is completely within the range of anti-ship missiles!
However, at this moment he suppressed the anger in his heart and forced himself to calm down.
The most difficult thing about missiles is their suddenness. If they knew about it in advance and were on full alert, they would have multiple opportunities to intercept them!
The ship is equipped with anti-aircraft missiles and close-range Vulcan cannons, both of which have excellent interception capabilities.
For a warship with excellent air defense capabilities, the best approach is a saturation attack that exceeds the defense's strength and cannot be responded to.
If there are only two, we can handle it!
But at this time he was already thinking about how to severely punish the Russian bear.
The requirements for missile production are extremely high, and the aerodynamics, engines, and guidance systems all test a country's comprehensive capabilities.
He didn't believe that Umbrella could build it by itself, so it could only have been bought!
"The radar hasn't responded yet? What about the helicopter radar?!"
The captain clenched his fists.
If you are the first to discover it, you can use anti-aircraft missiles and start the first interception at a position of about 50 kilometers.
Each ship has 32 anti-aircraft missiles, which is more than enough to deal with two missiles.
There is also an automatic reaction Vulcan cannon defense array at the back, which is absolutely foolproof!
Even if you get hit by a missile in extreme cases, as long as it doesn't hit your vital parts, you should be able to withstand it...
Just as he came behind the radar operator and stared at the radar and the radar network connected to the helicopter.
Suddenly, I heard the trembling voice of the adjutant.
"Here it comes, so fast!"
In order to capture the missile images, the helicopter the reporter was in flew to the best viewing angle, between the warship and Penglai.
After all, the Harpoon anti-ship missile is only subsonic, and when it flies past, it is enough for a helicopter to cover a long distance.
Because of this, they were also the first to see the missile that flashed across the air at a terrifying speed!
There was no response from the radar. This missile is invisible!
And this speed is at least Mach 3, or even Mach 4!
Too fast!
It is five or six times faster than the previous harpoon!
It's a hypersonic anti-ship missile!
Is Russia's hypersonic anti-ship missile already capable of actual combat?
Can it be invisible?
Impossible!
The Harpoon anti-ship missile ran for eight minutes.
However, these two Umbrella missiles crossed hundreds of kilometers in just a few tens of seconds.
No reaction time at all!
The radar didn’t respond, so how can we intercept it?
In order to avoid being detected by radar in advance as much as possible, the Harpoon must first rely on inertial guidance without turning on its radar, and then suddenly descend close to the sea level and continue to evade. This series of operations is as fierce as a tiger, just to avoid being detected as late as possible.
As a result, he became invisible!
Under the terrifying speed of hypersonic , a white scratch was left on the sea surface, riding the wind and waves!
After being reminded by the adjutant, the captain also looked gloomy and roared in a hoarse voice:
"Be prepared for impact!"
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, two missiles broke through all defenses and hit the two ships in an instant.
Boom! Boom!
Under the dazed expressions of the adjutant and the reporter, the two frigates broke apart with violent sparks, and there was even a feeling of being "blown away"!
The terrifying flames that erupted from the tear engulfed the entire bridge.
Impact resistant?
Is this a problem of impact resistance? ! !
Although these are just two frigates, they are also the flagship warships of the Kangaroo Country.
In fact, generally speaking, after a warship is hit by a missile, it will slowly leak water and then die.
But this time, the power of this missile is even more terrifying than the effect caused by a large-yield torpedo!
Generally, the purpose of a single hit by an anti-ship missile is to render a surface ship incapable of combat. For example, the Harpoon is loaded with 221 kilograms of high explosive gunpowder.
Torpedoes usually have an equivalent of four to five hundred kilograms, and due to the concentrated pressure of underwater explosions, their destructive power is usually much greater.
As a senior navy officer, the adjutant knew this clearly and had also conducted actual combat exercises!
Da Piaoliang often uses some retired warships as targets in joint military exercises.
However, the two cruise missiles in front of us are not only hypersonic and invisible to radar, but their explosive power is even greater than that of heavy torpedoes!
Watching the four-section battleship that was almost blown away begin to sink rapidly.
All that remained on the water were sparks from the wreckage and the waves of the huge waves.
I heard the roar of the explosion at this moment.
Everyone on the helicopter was stunned for a moment.
Now there are only two survivors.
One is a reconnaissance helicopter , and the other is the one that came to the front and was responsible for taking pictures.
Yes, it was filmed. The scene of our entire family being wiped out was filmed.
Or live broadcast...
