The technological competition starts with the integration of space-time memory

Chapter 290: Bird Sea Elegy
After Xu Chongming finished speaking, he gave an order in the ship's command system: "The warships are heading east at full speed. All ships are ready for anti-missile defense!"

"Yes, full speed ahead, anti-missiles ready!"

Ang Xin nodded and said, “That’s right, if the battleship moves at full speed, its position will change.

In actual combat, the anti-ship missiles launched by the enemy may deviate.

It is even more necessary to carry out anti-missile preparations at the same time.

No one can determine whether the enemy will frantically launch anti-ship missiles to counterattack before being hit by the missile.

Captain, your combat response is absolutely perfect!"

Xu Chongming crossed his arms but ignored Ang Xin's flattery.

He stared at the projection system and said, "The missile is approaching the enemy ship!"

35 kilometers to the east, six [Baihong] missiles flew over the Aegis destroyer "Toriumi" in just over seconds.

[Baihong] The missile is usually launched vertically and then soars to an altitude of 3 meters. It then flies at cruising speed and finally attacks the target vertically in the manner of a ballistic missile.

Since the distance between the "Toriumi" and the missile was very close, the "Baihong" missile planned the optimal attack path on its own, rushed to an altitude of 3 meters at the maximum speed, and then turned around and headed straight for the target.

At this time, the "Toriumi" battleship had already launched 12 Standard 3 air defense missiles to intercept the suddenly attacking "Baihong" missile.

Masao Yamaguchi stared at the radar screen with extreme nervousness.

Although he had anticipated being attacked by the United Nations Navy's missiles, he never expected that the enemy's warships would launch missiles from the west.

The battleship's radar had clearly not detected any warships in the west before, so where did this battleship come from?

Of course, he had no time to think about this question at the moment.

Because the enemy warship was only 30 kilometers away from them, and it rushed to an altitude of 3 meters before falling.

At this time, the opponent's missile's falling speed has reached an astonishing 4.2 Mach!

In just over 20 seconds, the missile will attack!

This is definitely not a supersonic missile that the Pagan Navy can possess!
Could it be a giant's battleship?

However, the ocean-going fleet that was heading to the waters of Sonan Kingdom for escort has already left this area.

No time to think too much!

Masao Yamaguchi stared at the radar screen, looking at the extremely weak radar signal.

He immediately gave the order: "Immediately launch four Harpoon anti-ship missiles to counterattack the enemy ship!"

The destroyer "Toriumi" was now completely enveloped in the smoke of the Standard 3 anti-aircraft missiles fired from the front deck.

The quadruple Harpoon anti-ship missile launch tube between the two chimneys suddenly spewed out flames.

Four anti-ship missiles emerged from the smoke and headed straight for the weak radar signal source in the west.

At this moment, 3 meters above the sky, six [Baihong] missiles were like the palm of Tathagata Buddha, smashing towards the "Toriumi" at high speed!
This attack posture is exactly the same as the Standard 6 All-Round Missile, that is, it uses a ballistic missile attack method to vertically attack the top of the target.

In the air, the "Toriumi" launched 12 Standard 3 air defense missiles, in groups of two, and rushed head-on towards the falling "Baihong" missile.

In order to be able to effectively intercept enemy ballistic missiles, the Empire's Standard Missile 3 has replaced the traditional explosive warhead with the Mk142 Lightweight Exoatmospheric Kinetic Arrestor (LEAP).

The warhead can intercept a ballistic missile by directly colliding with it, and can generate 130 megajoules of kinetic energy when colliding with the target.

At this time, these 12 air defense missiles are in the ballistic missile interception mode.

Its Mk 72 boosters and Mk 104 twin-thrust rocket engines had burned up and been jettisoned.

The Mk 136 dual-pulse solid rocket engine had just ignited, but the Baihong missile had already fallen.

The Standard 3 missile received the mid-course guidance signal from the warship and immediately made its final sprint.

At an altitude of 2 meters, fireworks suddenly exploded.

Just when the Standard 3 was almost on the path of the Baihong missile, it carried out a precise interception and explosion 0.8 seconds before it was launched according to the trajectory calculated by the Aegis radar.

Several streams of white gas suddenly spurted out from the sides and rear of the six [Baihong] missiles, and the missiles instantly changed their trajectories slightly as if with great intelligence.

In a flash, the six [Baihong] missiles unexpectedly predicted and avoided the standard 3 explosion point in advance.

Afterwards, the projectiles ejected white gas again, causing their trajectory to re-enter the final attack stage.

Aim at the part of the warship that was previously locked and rush straight down!

In the war room, Masao Yamaguchi watched as the Standard 3 signal disappeared from the radar screen, and then six red dots of incoming missiles appeared and fell rapidly.

At this time, the dense array of missiles on the ship was firing rapidly at almost the maximum elevation angle, creating a barrage of bullets 2000 meters in the air above the warship.

However, the Phalanx's ammunition reserve is only 1000 rounds, and its firing rate is 3000-4000 rounds per minute.

This ammunition reserve is only enough for two consecutive shots.

Therefore, after the barrage of bullets was launched, the dense array was no longer able to cope with the situation.

At this time, the [Baihong] missile passed through the smoke cloud formed by the barrage with precise time difference and rushed towards the warship at high speed.

"What?!" His face suddenly turned pale as paper and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

The thought, “How is it possible that we can’t intercept even a single one?” just flashed through my mind.

The battleship was like being hit by a giant's hammer.

Six [White Rainbow] missiles hit the "Toriumi" almost at the same time!
The moment the warhead of the improved CL-20 explosive exploded, the enormous force almost blew the "Toriumi" into the sea.

Then, no more...

The huge explosion tore open the thin steel plates of the Chokai, allowing seawater to pour in. The Chokai, which sank below the surface of the sea, could never resurface.

Not only that, the middle part of the warship, which was extremely close to the two explosion points, broke directly.

The "Toriumi" broke into two pieces instantly and sank to the bottom of the sea at an accelerated speed.

At this moment, although the "Toriumi" Aegis battleship has sunk, the Harpoon anti-ship missiles that continue to fly towards the Hiyu-class frigate have entered the final active homing stage.

At this time, the four anti-ship missiles suddenly jumped up from a position 3 meters above the sea surface, 6 kilometers away from the original position of the "Anawrahta" battleship.

Prepare for the final dive attack.

However, there is no INS Anawrahta battleship at this location.

Because of the full-speed advance order issued by Xu Chongming, the warship advanced two kilometers at a speed of 32 knots in the two minutes when the four anti-ship missiles flew over.

The only difference is that the Harpoon anti-ship missile takes off 3 kilometers away from the target, and the active search radar of its seeker can lock onto targets within a range of 20 kilometers.

Therefore, when it jumped up, it quickly re-locked the battleship "Anawrahta".

At this time, the four missiles were only 1 km away from the Anawrahta.

Xu Chongming was actually waiting for this opportunity.

Otherwise, he would have launched the [White Rainbow] all-purpose bomb and shot down the four Harpoon anti-ship missiles.

But just after launching six "Baihong" missiles, Xu Chongming decided to test the power of the battleship's close-in defense system.

At this time, the close-in defense gun with its own small shield had already roared.

The Feiyu-class frigate is different from the Dragon Kingdom's warships. It has two close-in defense guns at the front and rear.

Both close-in defense guns are equipped with small flat-panel shield radars and are fully intelligently controlled by the battleship's main computer.

Any target within 3 kilometers of the warship will be attacked in sequence according to the degree of threat.

This type of close-in weapon system is different from any previous close-in weapon system in service. It is an advanced electromagnetic close-in weapon system developed with future technology.

At present, this electromagnetic close-in defense gun has begun to be fully replaced in the Longguo Navy ships.

It can be said that with this electromagnetic close-in defense gun, unless it is a super-saturated missile attack, there is almost no anti-ship missile currently in service that can penetrate the defense.

The reason for equipping the Feiyu class with this advanced weapon is, of course, to improve the combat effectiveness of the Feiyu class.

Basically, the Feiyu class is used in various territorial navies as the main battleship.

How can we compete with the Imperial Navy without any special skills?

"Choo Choo Choo……"

A sound completely different from the current close-in weapon system was heard, and the electromagnetic close-in weapon system deployed on the front deck instantly fired a barrage of bullets.

Four Harpoon anti-ship missiles were like big fishes caught in a net, and were caught directly in the barrage of bullets.

"Boom boom boom!"

Four explosions sounded almost simultaneously, and the last threat to the "Toriumi" completely disappeared.

At this time, the sea area finally calmed down.

Xu Chongming ordered: "The ship's helicopters take off and head to the location of the 'Toriumi' to see if there are any survivors."

"Yes, the ship-borne helicopter takes off to search for the enemy!"

Only then did Xu Chongming walk out of the war room and come to the bridge, feeling the sea breeze and smelling the faint smoke in the sea breeze.

That was the remnant of the previous launch of the [White Rainbow] missile.

As for the electromagnetic close-in defense gun, it has no smell of gunpowder, only the burning smell caused by the friction and heat generated by the air after the shells are fired at high speed.

Of course, there is no scene of bullet casings falling down because it is a caseless bullet.

Ang Xin walked up to Xu Chongming and said, "Captain, I am impressed by your cautious command. It is worth learning from."

"In fact, the reaction of the captain of the 'Torikai' is also worth learning from."

"Yes, he decisively captured the weak radar signal generated in such a short time and launched an anti-ship missile. It was indeed a first-class reaction."

"Unfortunately, they still lack actual combat experience. No, maybe they are too confident in their own anti-ship missiles, so they only launched four."

Ang Xin shook his head and said, “Captain, you may be mistaken.

The "Chou Hai" is not our Hiyu class, its vertical launch system can only launch standard 3 air defense missiles.

There are only two quadruple anti-ship missile launchers for anti-ship missiles, and it has already launched half of its missiles."

Xu Chongming was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, the Japanese Aegis warships are mainly anti-submarine, and their anti-ship capabilities are just average."

First, the ship-borne helicopter sent information confirming that the "Toriumi" had sunk.

More than 20 minutes later, the "Anawrahta" appeared at the corresponding position, looking at some debris and oil stains scattered on the sea.

But there was not a single Japanese sailor who fell into the water.

Apparently, because the battleship sank too quickly, all the sailors were dragged to the bottom of the sea and no one survived.

"Call the headquarters and report the results of the battle."

"Yes."
