I built an armada.

Chapter 368: Shooting down U2, was it an enemy ship or ours?
"This is a real-combat test of the HQ-901B."

"It is also a test of whether we can undertake the task of prevention and control. It can be said that we are shouldering two burdens at the same time."

"Old Wang, I'm telling you, I'm really worried."

The hearts of Sun Yongguo and others suddenly rose to their throats.

They knew too well the importance of this moment. If they let the enemy plane escape, it would be a small matter to just recycle the two anti-aircraft missiles, but allowing the enemy plane to brazenly intrude into the inland would be the most disgusting and a crime!
A 10,000-ton destroyer failed in its first battle. Can it still be called the most advanced on Blue Planet?
This will directly affect the navy’s confidence in this warship in the future!
During this sea test, Su Dingping is the only person in charge of the entire ship. His words are the highest orders. In order to better test this warship, they will carry out them without fail.

It is precisely because of this that Sun Yongguo and other military experts felt that the burden on their shoulders suddenly increased and they were extremely nervous.

They even felt that they were more nervous than when they took the college entrance examination.

Many people were silently praying in their hearts that the two missiles would hit the target, they must hit it!
They all participated in the development of this missile and are well aware of its performance. However, man proposes, God disposes. Even the best product still has a problem with yield rate.

They don't want to encounter defective products in the first test.

At an altitude of 2 meters, in the cockpit of the U high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft, pilot Kadiboom looked through the radar display with great pride to see that one Longxia fighter plane after another was shuttling back and forth, as if doing useless work, and the smile on his face could not be hidden at all.

"These fighter planes of the Longxia tribe, can you see me?"

"Our Eagle Tribe's high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft is the best in the world and unique on the blue planet. If you still want to discover it, you are dreaming!"

"During the day, you may be able to see it with your naked eyes, but this is night."

“Even God won’t help you.”

"You are just wasting precious fuel. You should go back as soon as possible."

Kadiboom smiled triumphantly, with contempt flashing in his eyes. He looked down upon Long Xia's fighter planes at all.

He was at an altitude of 23,000 meters, a height that no Longxia fighter could reach.

He became even more proud when he thought of U2's extraordinary performance.

"Drip drip!"

"Missiles are coming, missiles are coming."

As soon as he finished speaking, the warning radar made a rapid and shrill sound, and the warning lights in the cabin flashed wildly.

Before he could react to what was happening, he saw two red dots on the radar display rushing towards the fighter plane at an explosive speed.

Even though there were only two of them, they were one in front and one behind, blocking his way!

"No, no, that's impossible."

"Six times the speed of sound, oh my god, this is terrible, I am done."

"How come the Longxia Navy has such advanced anti-aircraft missiles?"

Kadiboom was so frightened that his soul flew away. His face turned pale and cold sweat broke out on his forehead and back like rain.

If it was just one missile, he might be able to make an extreme maneuver and possibly escape, but two missiles hit him at the same time, which was obviously going to cost him his life.

The extremely high speed of Mach 2, while the maximum flight speed of U0.8 is only Mach . The gap between the two is undoubtedly very terrifying.

He really couldn't understand how he was discovered by the Longxia people.

The name Black Widow is not given randomly, but because it is completely black, like a ghost in the night, and is extremely difficult to be discovered. A backward country like the Longxia tribe should only be discovered by large-scale land-based long-range early warning radars when flying inland.

How come we were discovered over the sea and locked onto by anti-aircraft missiles?

Two came at once!

Kadiboom almost instinctively turned on the electronic jamming system, trying to use it to counter the incoming missile.

This is also his last means of saving his life. If this thing fails, then he will be really finished.

"No, it's impossible."

Seeing on the radar screen that the two incoming missiles were still approaching at a very fast speed, Kadiboom was horrified.

He had clearly turned on the electronic jamming system, but it had no effect on the two incoming missiles, which still locked onto him tightly.

You know, he was at an altitude of 23,000 meters.

It is reasonable to say that Longxia's land-based missiles can lock onto themselves. After all, they had shot down the U2 with anti-aircraft missiles imported from the White Bear Tribe in the s and s.

How could a sea-based air defense missile lock onto me?

This is so unscientific!
"Reporting to headquarters, I am Fox Hunter No. 1."

"Emergency, I'm being locked by a missile...ah..."

Kadiboom hurriedly shouted into the communicator, his voice trembling, and finally let out a desperate cry.

"boom!"

Without waiting for the headquarters to respond, two missiles chased up one after another and directly blew the U2 to pieces.

The missile was so fast that it only took a dozen seconds to catch up with the U0.8 reconnaissance plane at a speed of 2 Mach over a distance of dozens of kilometers.

The first missile hit the U2 and blew it into pieces, and the second missile hit right after that and blew the large debris into pieces as well.

Two fireballs suddenly appeared in the dark night sky, illuminating almost the entire surroundings.

The two missiles exploded in succession, and not only his body, but even his soul was blown away.

The huge shock wave from the explosion directly blew away the surrounding clouds.

The moon came out from the dark clouds, revealing half of its face, overlooking the ocean that was supposed to be peaceful.

Various small fireballs exploded and burned, splashing into the surrounding sea.

Soon the light went out again, in just a blink of an eye.

The sound of the explosion was also heard from far away.

Inside the main control room of the 10,000-ton drive.

"Report, radar shows the target has disappeared."

"Two anti-aircraft missiles hit the target accurately."

The radar monitor reported hastily, unable to suppress his ecstasy.

The 23-ton destroyer won its first battle and even shot down a high-altitude target at KM. It was really amazing and set a historical record!

And they are not only witnesses to this historical record, but also participants!
With this 10,000-ton destroyer and such advanced air defense missiles, the navy will no longer be afraid of the Eagle Tribe's high-altitude attack targets, and the navy will no longer have any shortcomings in air defense!
The appearance of the 10,000-ton destroyer was just in time!
"Great, great, we finally hit the target."

"Oh my god, our anti-aircraft missiles really hit the target, which was a target at an altitude of 23,000 meters. We have made naval history."

"Woo, woo, I'm so happy, our navy finally has an anti-aircraft missile that can shoot down high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft!"

"Hard work pays off. We have done it. We have avenged the navy. From now on, our navy will be able to provide a protective umbrella for the country's maritime airspace!"

"If anyone breaks into our tribe from high altitude again, they will be severely attacked by the navy. The navy finally no longer owes the country."

Sun Yongguo and other military experts were so excited that their eyes were filled with tears. They witnessed with their own eyes the Navy washing away its shame.

In the past air defense operations of the navy, surface ships were basically just decorations, and almost all interceptions were carried out by land-based air defense missiles, so the airspace over the sea seemed to be undefended.

Now, with 10,000-ton destroyers and a new generation of air defense missiles, this link has finally been filled.

The sailors on the ship were also extremely happy at this moment. Everyone's face was filled with extremely happy smiles. They had won a great victory once again!
Looking at the military experts who were as happy as children, Su Dingping was much calmer and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

The Haihongqi 901B has finally been verified in actual combat. Whether in terms of anti-interference or high-altitude performance, it is a first-class military product of Bluestar. From now on, the Longxia Navy will no longer be afraid of any invading enemy. Whether you are a fighter or a reconnaissance plane, you can shoot them all down!
"Drive over."

"See if there's anything valuable that can be salvaged."

After calming down, Su Dingping immediately gave the order.

If they happen to pick up the core equipment, they might be able to build the Longxia tribe’s own high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft in the future, thus achieving a new breakthrough in Longxia reconnaissance aircraft technology.

In this age of discovery and destruction, modern warfare is fought with information.

Pre-war reconnaissance and obtaining accurate information becomes a very critical task.

At present, the Longxia tribe still has shortcomings in high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft. As a military worker, he feels that it is his responsibility to help make up for this shortcoming so that the Air Force can have weapons to use when facing such challenges in the future.

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, the helmsman on duty immediately started the operation.

The 10,000-ton destroyer then turned around and rushed towards the sea where the wreckage fell. This bag must be picked up!
All the sailors on the ship were extremely excited at this moment, and they admired Su Dingping even more.

At the same time, in the eastern waters.

At the moment when the two anti-aircraft missiles rushed into the sky, a 123D radar on the 052 ship more than kilometers away captured the signal in the first time and locked it immediately.

"Captain, radar detected two mysterious missiles flying straight into the sky at a speed of Mach 6."

"In the heart of our eastern seas."

In the main control room, the radar monitor reported anxiously.

There was still a hint of fear in his words.

Something happened!

"What, in our heartland?"

Zhou Qinglei got furious when he heard this. He quickly pulled up the radar situation map and stared at the radar screen.

Sure enough, two high-speed moving red target markers appeared on the screen.

The targets of these two missiles are in the same direction, that is, directly towards the sky!

These were clearly two anti-aircraft missiles, which they had never seen before.

The speed actually reached 6 times the speed of sound, which is 3 Mach faster than the air defense missiles equipped on their ship. This is too scary.

"Captain, two missiles have flown beyond the radar's maximum monitoring limit."

Soon the radar monitor reported anxiously again.

Everyone in the main control room was shocked. The two missiles actually flew beyond the maximum detection altitude of the 052D active phased array radar.

The firing altitude of those two missiles is obviously much higher than that of the Haihongqi 123A equipped on Ship 901.

This is so scary!
Zhou Qinglei was even more shocked, and his heart was in turmoil.

"Old Zhou, what should we do next?"

The deputy captain asked with a frown on his face.

This was a huge matter for them. Anti-aircraft missiles were launched in their hinterland, but they had no idea who the enemy was or what the target was in the sky.

It can be said that they are completely in a stage of information isolation at the moment.

This is the most terrifying thing.

"Turn on the passive radar and try to find those two missiles!"

"quick!

Zhou Qinglei was nervous and gave orders quickly.

Now we can only hope that passive radar can play a little role.

"Yes."

The radar monitor hurriedly turned on the radar passive mode.

"Report, passive mode cannot acquire high altitude targets."

"But judging from the trajectories of the two missiles, the enemy is very likely to..."

Next, the radar monitor quickly marked it on the nautical chart. About 123 kilometers west of the 120 ship, there was a vast sea area belonging to the hinterland of the eastern waters.

"According to inference, the other party is in this area."

The deputy captain showed the marked nautical chart to Zhou Qinglei, but his expression was extremely serious.

After looking at the nautical chart, Zhou Qinglei felt extremely heavy.

They had already set up a tight net and set up layers of defense and interception, but they did not expect that the enemy would appear in their rear and launch two anti-aircraft missiles into the sky. Was they trying to shoot down the Longxia Air Force fighter jets?
He had never seen anything like this before.

No.

Suddenly, he had a very scary guess. Could it be that what happened to the Donghuang tribe was happening to the Longxia Navy?

It was previously built by the Longxia Navy for the East Desert Sea.

Could it be that this time, the enemy came again?
Thinking of this, Zhou Qinglei could no longer sit still. He quickly picked up the communication microphone and said, "Attention, all ships. Attention, all ships."

"Just now, our ship detected two anti-aircraft missiles flying into the sky at six times the speed of sound. Were they launched by you? Are you equipped with new types of missiles?"

At this time, he had to find out as soon as possible whether it was his own people who did it.

After all, he had heard Su Dingping say before that when advanced missiles were available, they would definitely be equipped to active warships as soon as possible. If the radar detection distance was not enough, it didn't matter, ship A could shoot and ship B could guide.

As the captain of Ship 123, he had no right to know whether other ships were equipped with new air defense missiles.

Information sharing can only be achieved in wartime.

"My ship did not take action."

"My ship didn't take action. If it did, how could I not tell you?"

"Our ship did not launch any anti-aircraft missiles..."

Soon, reports from the participating ships came through the communicator, which shocked Zhou Qinglei even more.

"Then did you notice that two anti-aircraft missiles were launched from the core area of ​​our eastern waters?"

"Who is closest to that sea area?"

"Are we one of our own?"

Suppressing the shock in his heart, Zhou Qinglei hurriedly asked again.

Nearly sixteen warships were dispatched this time, all of which were the most advanced and the main battleships of the navy.

They were distributed around the eastern waters, about a hundred kilometers apart, almost forming a long snake formation with air defense formations.

Adopting this formation allows one to counterattack immediately after launching the target.

"Report, our ship has captured the traces of those two anti-aircraft missiles, but they are too fast and flew out of the maximum detection range of the radar in the blink of an eye."
