Metal Ranger of the Endless Plane

The SS-N-21 Samposon cruise missile used by Lu Yuan uses inertial guidance technology and terrain matching guidance technology, which can only strike fixed targets on the ground.

Inertial guidance technology can generally be thought of as follows. It is to first calculate the route that the missile needs to travel based on terrain and location conditions, and then let the missile follow this route to the end, and then it can hit the target.

Probably similar to the automatic path finding in online games.

Of course, in order to complete these tasks, it is necessary not only to have route information, but also to rely on other systems on the missile to keep the missile from deviating from the route. That part is the essence of the inertial guidance system.

Terrain matching guidance is to record the terrain feature information of the target area, so that the missile can finally rely on this information to accurately hit the target in the matched terrain.

It's similar to searching by map, but this map is just a topographic map. If the target can be identified according to the photo, it is a more advanced guidance method, image matching guidance, or scene matching guidance.

Obviously, both guidance methods need to know the target position information first, and even the distance information from the launch point to the target point, and they can only attack fixed targets.

But obviously, these cruise missiles are in the hands of Bogdan and they cannot be used only as long-range attack weapons. Being able to accurately guide moving targets is their main task.

So now Lu Yuan has also installed laser guidance devices for these.

For example, Lu Yuan's current target is a transport plane at Los Santos Airport, then at Los Santos Airport, there is now at least one person with a laser target indicator, ready to hit the transport plane with lasers at all times.

In this way, the cruise missile that arrives there will hit the target under the guidance of the laser.

This shows that in addition to these people on the ship, Bogdan actually has other subordinates in Los Santos.

However, it may also be the other person arranged by the customer that Bogdan said.

In fact, Lu Yuan also tried to install another kind of guidance device for several cruise missiles, TV remote control guidance.

This kind of guidance makes the cruise missile infinitely close to its essence: a one-time unmanned aerial vehicle that explodes itself.

However, in fact, most of the distance is still handed over to inertial guidance, and only remote intervention is performed on the terminal to accurately hit the target.

But this kind of guidance method is susceptible to interference, and is basically only used when Lu Yuan uses it to bully people. So he just installed it as a small TV for the time being, and didn't plan to use it.

As a result, after launching the missile, the first half of the process was basically to check whether the data was in line with expectations, and there was no other action at all.

Fortunately, from the sea where they were to Los Santos Airport, there was just sea water all the way.

It was not until he entered the airfield and Lu Yuan turned on the TV receiver to check the camera footage on the warhead. He didn't really understand why Bogdan was so indifferent to launching cruise missiles in the U.S. mainland, which was obviously an act of war!

Because the missiles scurrying around in the sky over Los Santos are not limited to this one. If Lu Yuan had lost a tooth without seeing a missile, he would no longer be able to eat melon seeds!

Most of them are short-range air-to-air missiles launched by various aircraft, such as those modified Birds, Apaches, and even Comanche stealth gunships that seem to have been terminated.

In addition, there are all kinds of fighters such as Tiansha, and even the old Mustang P-51 from the World War II era, but that thing is actually equipped with a device that can launch AIM-9 Sidewinder close-range combat bombs.

At this time, those flying machines rushed or fought each other over Los Santos, occasionally firing fighting rounds, and they were happily fighting.

However, the citizens on the ground seemed to be accustomed to those things. Only when the aircraft was shot down to the ground and almost hit itself, would they yell in horror and turn around and ran away.

But when they run to another block, they will calm down again. They should go to work and chat, as if what happened before is just some kind of small accident that they have been accustomed to seeing every day.

Of course, the performance of the citizens on the ground is not as far as the current road. It can be seen clearly by the camera with limited pixels on the cruise missile warhead.

These are all added to him in the future when he enters Los Santos.

In addition to these aircraft fighting each other, Lu Yuan also vaguely saw the longer surface-to-air missiles, indicating that these pilots were definitely not the only ones joining the battle.

Although Lu Yuan had the intention to take a closer look in the past, it was a pity that his Sambo Sen target was not far away, and he had no chance to transfer the missile flight control to the TV guidance system.

Under the guidance of a laser target indicator deployed by someone on the ground, the Sampson went straight to the An-124 transport plane that was taking off on the airport runway and dived.

The last picture recorded on the warhead monitor when the missile was directly inserted into the laser at the tail of the transport plane to indicate the target point and detonated the warhead to destroy the target, which made Lu Yuan hardly to say anything.

Because he saw two cars underneath the transport plane, which was an old classic model of the 80-year-old Mika, the DeLorean DMC-12, which was produced in 1981.

Although the popularity of these two cars in the US is not purely due to performance, that matter can be said later, or needless to say.

The point is that when Lu Yuan saw them, they were not chasing the transport plane, so they were still running on the runway below the plane.

No, no, no, these two old cars, which have been in existence for a long time, actually flew under the belly of the transport plane with a posture similar to a magnetic levitation form!

car! Can fly! Also chasing the transport plane to fly!

Even if this is Los Santos, isn't it too crazy?

However, when he thought of the space barrier outside the Luoshen Metropolitan Area, Lu Yuan felt that perhaps it was precisely because Luosantuli had become so crazy now that some talents had sealed this area!

Or, because they wanted to do these crazy things, they blocked it in advance?

At least, when Turner returned to Los Santos for the last time, although it was still crazy here, there was no such thing as a flying car!

And when Lu Yuan took this last picture and submitted a report to Bogdan, even he was taken aback by the existence of this thing.

However, when the two of them combed through the video taken by the missile on the monitor, they found that the thing was not as scary as it was at first sight.

Its biggest weakness, or shortcoming, is speed.

Even if it can keep up with the An-124, it is because the take-off speed of the large transport aircraft with turbofan engines is not too high.

At least, the speed of this flying car can't catch up with the Sambosen missile in subsonic cruising state.
