Chapter 1338 Skynet
Happy New Year to you all!
There will be two shifts today. My positive symptoms have disappeared except for coughing today. I just feel tired, lack of energy, energy, and appetite. I will wait for a few days to rest before returning to the third shift.

----------------

On the basis of Wang Xuexin's proposal that this problem must be solved, everyone put forward their own solutions.

Su Xin is considering whether it is possible to increase the range of the anti-aircraft gun or even directly replace the long-range anti-aircraft gun to solve this problem.

She said: "Commander, the detection range of the Mark 1 to the missile is about 35 kilometers. At this time, the computer can completely calculate the trajectory of the missile and intercept it, but the effective range of the bear anti-aircraft gun is only [-] kilometers, which is actually useless. If the potential of the gun detection radar can be changed to an anti-aircraft gun with a longer range, all problems will be solved!"

There is nothing wrong with what Su Xin said. Since the missile will only enter the dive state at a distance of more than ten kilometers, then use a longer-range anti-aircraft gun to intercept it at a further stage. Of course, there is no need to consider the problem of the dive state.

Although this idea is very beautiful, it can also be realized. For example, Yingjiang's M1 120MM caliber anti-aircraft gun has a range of 25 kilometers. If the artillery detection radar is combined with this anti-aircraft gun, it can intercept the target at a distance of more than ten kilometers.

However, there are actually many problems with this statement.

Wang Xuexin replied: "First of all, the anti-aircraft guns with a range of about 20 kilometers are not small. They are easy to be spotted by Hans on the battlefield. When there is no air supremacy and they must be deployed not far from the front line, they will often become Hans. The target of the bombers, when the time comes, will not be a matter of anti-aircraft guns hitting missiles, but a war between anti-aircraft guns and fighter planes!"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Anti-aircraft guns are one of the main threats to Hans fighters on the battlefield, and they are also one of the key objects to be cleared by Hans fighters and bombers. Therefore, if heavy anti-aircraft guns are deployed on the front line, they will either be blown up by enemy bombers or directly by the enemy. Covered with artillery fire, it is impossible to wait for the moment to intercept the missile.

On the contrary, Mao Xiong's 52K anti-aircraft gun, although the range is insufficient, but because of its small size and large number, it has strong survivability on the battlefield and can also be deployed in large numbers.

"Secondly!" Wang Xuexin continued: "Our computer relies on existing data for calculations, and many problems cannot be considered, such as changes in resistance caused by wind direction, air humidity, and airflow. It can be ignored, but if the distance is more than ten or twenty kilometers, can these factors be ignored? If it cannot be ignored, does it mean that the success rate of interception is low? In addition, the artillery itself has errors..."

Needless to say, the probability of this interception is probably not much higher than that of manual interception.

There are many other problems, such as the question of whether the introduction time from Eagle Sauce will be in time, whether the number of artillery and shells can keep up, and so on.

In short, this plan was undoubtedly rejected. It can only stay in theory for the time being, or one day it will be possible to equip Yingjiang M1 anti-aircraft guns in large quantities if Mao Xiong has the conditions... Only by increasing the number of equipment can it be possible probability of interception.

Su Liguo thought for a while, then asked: "Commander, can our calculations calculate the dive trajectory of the missile in advance?"

Wang Xuexin understood the meaning of Su Liguo's words. Simply put, the artillery detection radar would dive into the orbit in advance when the missile was still in level flight and give the interception data for the gunner to prepare. In this way, the problem was solved.

But this is obviously unrealistic. The reason why Su Liguo asked this question is because he doesn't know the working principle of the missile.

Su Xin denied it without thinking: "Mr. Su, the missile enters the dive procedure relying on the built-in timer, but due to the large error of the timer, the time for each missile to enter the dive procedure is different. This can be seen as A random number, the calculation cannot be calculated accurately!"

Su Liguo said "Oh" and didn't say anything else.

When the meeting room fell silent, Wang Xuexin suddenly thought of something: "Comrades, if other methods are not feasible, why don't we go back to the original point and still consider using 52K anti-aircraft guns to intercept within its range?"

"Regimental Commander!" Su Xin said weakly: "It's not that we don't want to, but it's simply impossible to adjust the parameters and shooting height and shoot the shells within half a minute..."

This was discussed before, and this solution was eliminated because it was considered impossible.

But Wang Xuexin didn't think so. He looked at the map and said, "What if we don't need to think about Zhu Yuan and She Gao at all?"

Upon hearing this, the cadres in the conference room chattered and discussed:

"You don't need to consider Zhu Yuan and She Gao? How is it possible!"

"Don't anti-aircraft guns have to adjust the elements and shooting height?"

"Is it possible to use a proximity fuze? Even if you use a proximity fuze, you have to adjust the elements, and there is still not enough time!"

……

Proximity fuzing does save a little time, but it's not enough to solve the problem.

Su Xin thought about it for a while, then asked Wang Xuexin with an uncertain expression: "Leader, what do you mean...the Zhuyuan and Shegao are set in advance?"

Wang Xuexin nodded and said, "You can say that!"

Then Wang Xuexin used a pencil to draw a circle on the map in the direction of Hans in front of Stalingrad, and said: "If we make a unified plan for all the anti-aircraft artillery on the second line, so that if they fire a cannon, they will be able to shoot one in front. The firepower net, theoretically, can it intercept the missiles that happen to fly in front of this firepower net in time?"

This is a bit like the blocking shelling of howitzers against infantry... Sometimes in order to prevent the enemy from charging, a wall of fire will be created in front of our position, and any enemy who rushes into this wall of fire will be blown to the sky.

In the same way, Wang Xuexin's method of play is to use anti-aircraft guns to create a tight "Skynet" in the air, and any missiles that break into or try to break through this "Skynet" will be blown away.

Because the parameters and even the shooting heights of all these anti-aircraft guns are pre-set, there is no need to adjust the parameters and shooting heights.

Su Liguo couldn't help frowning when he heard this: "Commander, if you fight like this, even if you are a bear...the shells can't afford it, right?"

"No!" Su Xin seemed to have figured it out, and she said excitedly: "It's affordable, this method should be feasible... We just form a 'Skynet', but we don't need to open the entire network to stop incoming missiles." Zhang 'Skynet' is only a part of it!"

Wang Xuexin nodded slightly, Su Xin understood.

The opened "Skynet" is virtual. In actual operation, this "Skynet" is divided into pieces and each artillery battalion is responsible for it.

Which artillery battalion needs to fire... depends on the calculation results of the computer.

In other words, the data input into the computer is the number of the artillery battalion, and the computer calculates the position of the intersection point of the missile and "Skynet", and then outputs the number and time... Only one artillery battalion needs to fire at the same time.
