398 fighter jets fire missiles

After five consecutive days of test flights, Chen Fei finally got the limit flight envelope for humans to fly the J-50.

With this data, the pilots behind him had a clear idea of ​​what the limit of flight speed under what circumstances should be? They must not exceed it, otherwise there would be life-threatening danger, which tactical maneuver limit is, and so on. He tried all these things one by one. The superior department integrated the data he obtained and the data obtained by previous test pilots one by one, and soon obtained the flight envelope data of the humanoid J-50, laying a solid foundation for future pilot training.

However, Chen Fei's work has not been completed yet. His previous test flights were mainly to understand the maneuverability of fighter jets, so next, he also needs to test the combat performance of fighter jets.

However, general inspection methods are difficult to monitor, because the earth is generally peaceful now, and no country dares to challenge us, so this work is a bit difficult.

Of course, you can also set up drills such as the Red and Blue Army yourself, but if you do this, it will not meet the requirements. After all, the exercises are exercises, and no matter how realistic they are, it is impossible to be like actual combat.

However, after research, the superior department found a wonderful method.

Chen Fei was called to a room with a high level of confidentiality.

A leader at the headquarters personally talked to him.

"Chief!" Chen Fei saluted the other party.

"Chen Fei, sit down!" The other party pointed to a small sofa.

Chen Fei sat down.

"Chen Fei, according to the relevant information from the intelligence department, there will be a test-fire ballistic missiles in this area around 12 o'clock tonight."

The superiors gave an introduction to the situation one by one.

This time the mission is really exciting.

According to relevant information from the intelligence department, there will be a test-fire of ballistic missiles in a certain place in midnight tonight.

But we don’t know more about the information. Of course, we mainly don’t want to know, so we didn’t send relevant staff.

For example, we don’t know which coordinate point the missile is launched, what time is, and what the missile’s flight route is.

But now, the superior department wants Chen Fei to perform a mission to destroy the ballistic missile launched. Of course, the whole process must be silent and absolutely confidential and cannot be let anyone know.

Therefore, when the other party found that the ballistic missile he launched suddenly crashed, he might think something was wrong, so he would not pursue it. Anyway, the missiles exploded into pieces after landing, and they were all scattered on the sea surface, and no ghosts could be found.

If this mission can be successful, then there is no doubt that it will be enough to prove the combat capability of the J-50, and it can be sent to the alien world to perform practical missions.

This task... is really a bit brain-breaking.

He neither had to bear any consequences, but he could also use practical methods to test the combat performance of the J-50. Chen Fei was very excited after hearing this.

Intercept missiles with fighter jets?

Tsk tsk!

It sounds very cool!

Theoretically speaking, it is feasible to use fighter jets to intercept missiles. Not to mention the J-50, even those old fighters can achieve it. However, those old fighters require a premise. In the airspace of 10,000 meters, the thrust-weight ratio in the airspace of 10,000 meters, the vacuum speed of ballistic missiles with a thrust-weight ratio often around 1.2 does not actually exceed the speed of air-to-air missiles after they are launched from the aircraft.

Of course, Chen Fei is now flying the J-50. His weapon system, whether it is electromagnetic gun, laser gun or microwave gun, can be directly destroyed no matter where the ballistic missile is. There is no problem that the air-to-air missiles of old fighter jets cannot catch up with the ballistic missiles.

So, there is only one problem, that is, how Chen Fei discovered the missile, how to predict his route, and how to destroy it.

That night, at 10 o'clock, Chen Fei was dressed neatly, climbed up the boarding ladder, and came to the cockpit to sit.

There is a problem that is more troublesome when driving the J-50, that is, someone must help during the preparation stage, such as wearing the helmet on his head and connecting the flight suit with the helmet, and then connecting other data cables to the flight suit one by one. Chen Fei cannot do this because many data interfaces are on his shoulders and it is difficult for him to reach them himself.

Everything was ready, Chen Fei said: "Bingbing, we are going to take off, close the canopy and complete the preparation before takeoff!"

With a creaking sound, the completely transparent glass canopy slowly lowered and covered the cabin above it, and then the cabin door locked.

The air conditioner is turned on, the environmental control is turned on, the oxygen is turned on, the oxygen speed is adjusted to the value Chen Fei likes, the ejection parachuting insurance is turned on, and the relevant self-test is completed one by one. Each time, the artificial intelligence will report a sound, such as "Open the air conditioner, the temperature is 18 degrees Celsius, the air conditioner is turned on!"

Chen Fei was sitting in the cockpit, waiting like a master.

I have to admit that driving the J-50 is really comfortable. These small things can be left to artificial intelligence Bingbing. He only needs to do something while fighting.

No wonder this fighter has an entertainment system that stores a large number of music, novels, and movies. When you are bored, Chen Fei can take a look at these things, and movie novels and other things can be displayed directly on the display screen of the helmet.

Of course, you should pay attention to your eyes for the sake of your health.

Maybe you can get a little movie in the future!

"Tower, I slid out and took off!" Chen Fei called.

"You can slide out, runway 1 has been cleared and you can take off directly!"

Chen Fei then said to the fighter: "Bingbing, slide out of the hangar on runway No. 1 and take off comfortably!"

"Okay Colonel, runway One takes off comfortably!"

Chen Fei then leaned on the seat, watching the huge J-50 fighter slowly slide out of the hangar with boredom, then turned right onto the runway, and began to push the throttle valve to accelerate when entering the entrance of the main runway. After gliding for 300 meters, the joystick pulled up by itself, and the plane flew into the air in a very relaxed and comfortable posture.

Chen Fei looked outside.

Because the light control was implemented, it was pitch black outside and only the indicator light was on. He couldn't help but sigh in secret. If the planes in the past also had this system, damn it, then they wouldn't have to train every day to take off and land at night when they were in the aviation school.

As he thought about it, Chen Fei suddenly felt nervous.

If the sixth generation aircraft becomes popular on a large scale, then...will the pilots be unemployed?

In the future, if you fight in low-intensity combat, use drones such as rainbows, and use J-50s, then what else do you do if you have a pilot?

grass!

Isn't the pilot really going to lose his job, right?

Chen Fei was secretly worried.

After taking off, the J-50 flew westward and flew for a long time before reaching the predetermined airspace.

Afterwards, the J-50 closed the accelerator, slowed down the speed, and hovered quietly at a low altitude.

The J-50's low-altitude and low-speed performance is very excellent, so it also steadily hovered at very low speeds.

Soon, the voice of artificial intelligence sounded: "Colin, you have reached the designated airspace and now you start hovering at a low altitude. Please indicate what to do next!"

Chen Fei said: "Immediately monitor the target area. If a ballistic missile is found to be launched, report it immediately!"

"I understand!" artificial intelligence answered.

The intercontinental ballistic missile goes through the propulsion acceleration phase after it is launched.

At the end of this stage, the booster will be separated from the warhead (combat part), and the warhead enters a thrustless suborbital flight stage, flying along an elliptical orbit that focuses on the center of the earth and intersects the earth's surface.

During this stage, the missile flies outside the atmosphere and does not release any signals to the outside world, and is generally unable to be detected by the enemy.

Moreover, the missiles at this stage have very high flight speed and are difficult to intercept. Data shows that many missiles will also release various interferences at this stage.

Therefore, if you want to destroy ballistic missiles, you must be in the launch stage.

Of course, it is OK for J-50 to destroy ballistic missiles outside the atmosphere, but it is difficult to use drones and human fighters.

To destroy a ballistic missile, the first step is to discover the missile.

The ballistic missile launched by reconnaissance is ballistic missile early warning, which is mainly divided into three stages: detection, verification, and false alarm cancellation.

The first is the detection stage, which mainly relies on a comprehensive early warning system composed of radar and satellites.

Radars are mainly long-range radars. This kind of radar generally has a wavelength of about half a meter. The advantage is that it has a long range of functions and its disadvantage is that it has poor tracking accuracy and cannot provide accurate data, so it is used as a warning radar.

Apart from radar, only satellites can rely on.

Early warning satellites use high-sensitivity infrared detectors to detect ballistic missiles by detecting the tail flame when the ballistic missile is launched, but the disadvantage is that the false alarm rate is relatively high and the ability to recognize natural phenomena such as sunlight, meteorites, fires, and volcanic eruptions is low.

Nowadays, infrared detection equipment is generally upgraded to filter out large-scale, low-calorie, and short-term infrared signals to reduce false alarm rate, but the effect is not very obvious.

Therefore, the early warning satellite must continue to scan, and in the next multiple scanning cycles, the discovered infrared targets are characterized and trajectory fitted to filter out most false alarm targets.

For example, wildfires and oil wells are not considered threatening because they are immovable. Ballistic missiles are moving targets, so a trajectory will be drawn on the background of the earth. Only when the target is drawn with such a trajectory and its speed is estimated to meet the alarm conditions will it be alerted. The decision-making department will then confirm it with other means (such as radar).

However, now, our army has developed an advanced early warning system. This system relies on artificial intelligence and big data to integrate and calculate the data detected by various departments and units. Through massive data deductions and repeated argumentation, we finally determine whether the target is a ballistic missile.

Chen Fei hovered in the designated airspace for a while, and the voice of artificial intelligence sounded: "Col. Discover the target!"

Chen Fei was excited when he heard this. He immediately sat upright and said to the artificial intelligence: "Open the multi-function display screen to display the relevant situation!"

"Yes, Colonel!"

Soon, the curved screen of the large screen that had been dim in front of Chen Fei suddenly lit up. Soon, the launch site appeared on the left side of the screen. Sure enough, a missile flew up in the air. On the right side of the large screen, the relevant ballistic data of the missile were displayed one by one.

"Calculate the best ambush point!" Chen Fei ordered.

"Okay Colonel!" The human could only answer.

After about three or four seconds, the voice sounded: "Col. The best ambush point has been calculated!"

The relevant results were shown on Chen Fei's helmet eyepiece. Chen Fei thought for a while and felt that there was nothing wrong, so he said: "Bingbing, set up a new route and enter the ambush point!"

"clear!"

After a while, a wonderful ambush route appeared on the multi-function monitor in front of Chen Fei. Chen Fei looked at it and felt that there was no problem, so he said to the command center: "Fortress, I am going out. The travel route has been sent to you, so there should be no problem!"

After a while, the command post said, "Dongyao, we have already seen it. There is no problem with the route. I wish you a smooth trip and the end!"

"I understand." Chen Fei replied.

Afterwards, he let the artificial intelligence fly the fighter plane to the ambush airspace.

He was standing above the warning radar, but he couldn't see anything.
