Chapter 332 The battleship was hit hard(2/3)
"I don't know, ordinary missiles won't make them so nervous, right?"
"After all, it's still a nuclear bomb!"
After some discussion, we finally came to the conclusion that we still need to test things out, but we need to be cautious.
The dispatch of all fighter jets and all warships can indeed guarantee that the merchant ship carrying unknown cargo will be sunk.
But YL cannot do this and must control the scope of conflict within the field of 'friction'.
An all-out war is impossible.
The key points for YL to suppress Lao Sha are the fleet, and the second is air power.
It is impossible for a cargo ship with an unknown serious threat to trigger a full-scale war and cause heavy losses to high-end forces.
Not to mention, if they really want to do this, the Americans standing behind Sean will never give up. One of the disadvantages is to attract Americans to the scene.
The plan was finalized, and a small group of fighter jets took off again,
The bully is that Sean doesn't have a fighter to check and balance.
Dozens of minutes later, the first wave of harassment arrived. Looking at the fleeting signal on the radar, Robert would not treat it as a false alarm like the arrogant British people.
It is obvious that this time the YL people adopted the same tactics as the Argentinians in the Falklands War. They used fighter jets to approach their own warships at low altitudes to avoid radar locking as much as possible, and then used missiles to sneak attack.
Sean's face is very dark.
Neither the Standard 2 nor the Beagle can hit ultra-low altitude targets.
As for the harpoon, sea sparrow, etc., not to mention the attack distance, they cannot catch up with them based on speed alone.
Based on the speed and distance of the opponent's fighter plane, the computer system calculates the possible location of the opponent's fighter plane and evaluates whether a missile has been launched.
This time Robert ordered the helicopter to start in advance, and mounted the jamming bombs to hover behind him, preparing to detonate them in advance.
Standard 2 is also prepared in advance, waiting for the YL fighter jet to finish launching and start climbing, and give them a hard blow.
In the flagship command room, the air was very solemn. No one spoke, everyone was waiting for the radar signal.
The radar suddenly alerted. Fortunately, the flagship was recently decommissioned and the radar on it was the most advanced. It captured the missile flying close to the sea surface 20 kilometers away.
"Bring that plane down for me!" Sean said through gritted teeth.
"One!" Robert shouted quickly, and only approved the launch of one Standard 2.
Sean opened his mouth and raised his hand halfway, but in the end he didn't make a sound. He used his foot force to grind the floor hard, unconsciously, once, once.
A Standard 2 soared into the sky, and after the launch, the three F-14s turned over 135° and rushed out diagonally to the rear.
After scanning the tracking missiles, the three planes exploded in the air, piercing out in different directions like three sharp swords.
Robert just glanced at it and ignored it. He followed the six missiles launched against the sea.
The four helicopters on board the battleship all flew towards the direction of the missile.
This kind of action is very dangerous. The helicopter itself will become a heat source and become a target for missiles.
In the air, an F-14 fled wildly, while the other two circled in a large circle and then wandered more than 30 kilometers away.
This operation is extremely dangerous. The missile is relatively close to the fighter jet and is being tracked quickly.
Question, A is running away at Mach 2.25, and B is chasing at Mach 3. The two sides are 25 kilometers apart. Can they catch up with the target within 110 kilometers?
Sean's brain did not support him in calculating the results in such a short period of time.
On the sea, four helicopters rushed towards the missile. Sure enough, they attracted the attention of the missile after getting closer. Without saying a word, they launched all the mounted decoys in one go and then pulled the joystick to climb as fast as possible.
On the sea, a series of explosions sounded, and the four helicopters climbed to an altitude of 80 meters in just a few seconds, but the missiles did not catch up.
"Flying fish!" Robert exhaled slightly.
There are still a few flying fish left, so interception is not a problem.
Attention returned to the fleeing F-14. At this moment, it was completely invisible to the naked eye. Everyone was just staring at the radar.
The locked light flashed suddenly and then went out. Robert waved fiercely, and everyone immediately cheered.
Obviously, the F-14 did not escape in the end.
Sean was even more excited. He spoke fiercely and also complained a little. He had just shot three shots in one breath, and he must be able to kill them all.
Robert quickly calmed down and ordered close surveillance. Then he walked to Sean and explained in a low voice: "The ammunition base is insufficient."
"The standard 2s we carry are not enough. The YL people have more F-14s. Moreover, even within the range, the hit rate is not as high as expected."
"In the movie, the missile turns 90 degrees to pursue it, and it is fake that it overshoots and automatically turns around to pursue. The actual situation is active, semi-active, and passive. The situation we encountered is passive." Seeing Sean's face was confused.
, Robert said succinctly: "The angle that can be adjusted instantly is very small."
"Fighters are equipped with radar and computer assistance to calculate the missile's speed and angle. As long as the fighter pilot makes complete evasive maneuvers at the most critical point, there is a high probability that he can avoid it."
"Even in aerial combat, the hit rate is very low."
"Once our missile reserves are empty, we will really be ravaged by the other side!" Robert explained: "We can't get air support and can only passively defend, so we must use ammunition carefully!"
"We don't have the ability to fight a full-scale war. When facing YL, they are not weak, not at all."
Sean was confused by what he heard, but he understood one thing. YL had air power support, and the other party would not challenge him in a duel on the sea with battleships.
There is no such thing as fairness in war. If a war really breaks out, the warships like Umbrella will have to answer here.
This is where the aircraft carrier battle group is powerful. Air superiority is king.
"Do you need to ask for help from the US Air Force base here?" Sean calmed down a little and asked quickly.
Robert raised his eyebrows and said, "It's up to you, boss. If our plane takes off, the YL people will be able to get back to work right away. However, there will be a lot of trouble in the future. We are a private military company and we need to distinguish ourselves from the US military."
It's coming."
"When the US military intervenes, the nature changes. Do our previous military conflicts and future military conflicts represent the will of Congress?"
Sean nodded. This point must be distinguished. This is the foundation of one's life. "Forget it, just hold on. Doha's missiles are filling up."
Looking down at his watch, Sean twisted his jaw from side to side a few times, "Keep it up for more than an hour, I'll make them look good!"
Agree and continue to delay.
Sean feels uncomfortable, and so does YL.
Just now, an F-14 failed to dodge because it was not skilled enough and was blown to pieces.
YL's fighter pilot training is not sufficient, especially after it severed ties with the United States. Although the United States still privately supplies various parts and maintenance support, it is definitely dragging its feet, and it is just to ensure that it can confront Lao Sa and not lose.
, simply cannot guarantee adequate training.
One of them was killed, and the frightened group's other two fighter jets became numb.
The commander of the YL side was also feeling distressed and bleeding. Now the Yankees will not sell them any more F-14s. If they kill one, there will be one less!
They were too excited about perfectly evading four missiles at once before, and now they had a bucket of ice water in their pockets.
On the surface, Sean still holds at least 3 Standard 2s. YL dare not let the fighter jets get too close, let alone bomb them overhead.
As for how many missiles Umbrella has prepared, YL is not sure.
The YL people only dared to keep teasing on the outside, and sometimes rushed to about 25 kilometers away and fled at the first touch, hoping to seduce Sean to launch missiles.
Robert just stood still and occasionally fired a Beagle anti-aircraft missile, which frightened the YL people and immediately turned around and fled.
It's just that the Beagle's range is too close. At least for the US military, it is almost obsolete. Especially in front of fourth-generation fighters, it can't hit the target if it's not a close-up attack.
After the YL people discovered that it was a beagle, they wandered around for a while and then came back to continue provoking.
Going in and out, teasing each other's bottom line.
(The standards for the fourth generation of the United States and the Soviet Union were different, but they were subsequently re-divided comprehensively, and the F-14 was classified as the fourth generation)
Of course, at this time, there are less than two dozen fourth-generation people in the world, including YL and Lao Sa, which is also the main reason why the two countries are so arrogant in this era.
YL was sold in the United States during the BLW dynasty, and Lao Sa was bought by the Soviet Union after the nuclear power plant was bombed by Israeli planes.
This territorial relationship is extremely complex.
The relationship between the United States and Iran is tense. The embassy has been demolished and the ambassador has been arrested. On the surface, they are fighting to the death all day long. Secretly, the United States supports YL in their fight against Lao Sa.
On the surface, the United States and Laos are allies, as good as wearing a pair of trousers, but in fact all the trousers Lao Sasha uses are Soviet products.
The two sides are just trying it out, I'm trying to scare each other, and they're testing each other, but they're both trying to avoid it, and no one dares to cross the line.
At this time, Sean regretted a little. He had asked Robert to hit 4 standard 2s in one go before, otherwise he wouldn't be so passive now.
If there was an aircraft carrier, how could it be bullied like this!!
Sean felt angry, well, just angry.
Even if there were another 3 billion, Sean wouldn't dare to think about the aircraft carrier. What he's burning is not oil, but money!
When I got home, I dismantled the Keeling-class beagle and replaced it with Standard 2!
Isn’t it just money? I am rich!
Well, the beagle can’t be wasted. Find the original company to change it to land-based.
This is fucking money!
