Chapter 968 Submarine Missile
A picture captured by an American satellite was posted on the Internet and soon reprinted countless times.
This is a picture of a black starry universe with a background. The picture is relatively clear. You can see the blue planet Earth covering the atmosphere, and you can also see a satellite in orbit, but what really makes people crazy and curious is the black wing-shaped aircraft.
The black tailless wing-like aircraft, similar to some wing-designed aircraft on earth, such as the most famous American B-2 strategic bombers, but the wing aircraft in this picture is still different from the B-2 bomber, such as the smaller angle of the swept wing, which is conducive to high-speed flight. Reduce air resistance. And the wing looks different from the thin shape of the aircraft in the impression of ordinary people. It is somewhat angular, and the most exaggerated is the three engine nozzles of this mysterious aircraft.
One large, two small, one main and two pairs of engine nozzles, spraying white and yellowish tail flames, flying around the ground in space.
Many people think that this picture is from PS at first glance, but after the judgment of some professionals, they think that the surname of PS may be lower, and then there are some more similar pictures revealed, and the places exposed belong to some official space organizations and folk astronomical hobby organizations.
Fangfo is to further prove the true surname of these photos. An unnamed official from NASA told a media that many of the pictures circulating on the Internet were captured by satellites of various countries. The official also said that NASA initially thought it was an alien spacecraft, but later suspected it was a space shuttle secretly studied by a country. But the news has not been confirmed!
Is it an alien visitor or a new product of a space power? Either way, it is a very important thing for the national ax and non-governmental organizations.
Take the country as an example. At present, only the United States has a space shuttle. Although other countries are also conducting similar research and some acts of sending astronauts into the sky, the United States is undoubtedly the first space power in this regard.
But the mysterious wing aircraft in these photos looks more beautiful and smaller than the stupid and rough space shuttle in the United States.
The United States, the European Union, Russia and China have set up investigation agencies to investigate the origin of the mysterious aircraft. The TK21 space fighter, which completed the orbiting of the ground, also landed safely at the launch site of Badada Town after flying around the ground for two laps.
The U.S. space shuttle landed on the ground through the runway like a normal aircraft, while the TK21 fighter took off vertically and landed vertically. If you put aside other data, the TK21 fighter is no different from the helicopter.
Li Mo was very happy with the successful test flight of the TK21 fighter. He also learned that the main weapon of this new space fighter is the laser attack derived from laser anti-missile technology. In the current combat needs, the main combat missions of future space fighters will be to attack all targets in space such as enemy satellites and space stations. In the plan, space fighters will be equipped with conventional weapons such as missiles in the future.
Li Mo praised the space fighter development team, also praised the test pilot, and asked Hussein, the chief of staff, to be responsible for promoting the first-class military rank of the test pilot. Subsequently, Li Mo asked Xu Dong, the leader of the space fighter development team, to further improve the TK21 fighter and strive to have combat effectiveness one day earlier.
Hmm, doesn't the West always shout that if it has the right to information, it has the initiative of war? Send out space fighters to shoot down all your satellites. Let's see how you can control the information!
Withless satellites, an army like the United States, which is completely armed with high technology, will reduce its combat effectiveness by half. The real fight is not even as brave as some African troops.
But just after Li Mo returned to Mogadishu, a bad news came that the United States took the initiative to start a war in the Persian Gulf.
Although Li Mo had this psychological preparation before sending the Strategic Air Force to attack the Mediterranean Mixed Fleet, he still did not expect the United States to move so quickly.
Regarding the war report on the Persian Gulf, the intelligence department and the commander of the joint air force will send the news every once in a while. From the bad news at the beginning to the participation of the strategic air force, the initiative gradually tilted towards the joint air force, and the smile on Li Mo's face began to appear.
In his opinion, this air battle is also the only large-scale air battle that the United States can provoke in the short term. Although the U.S. Air Force is strong, because of its status as the only superpower and its intervention around the world, the United States has a lot of potential enemies, and the areas that need to be defended and control are also It is very vast. The scale of the U.S. Air Force is large, but the stall is also large. There is not much reserve force that can be easily mobilized after it is spread out. The last air war in the Persian Gulf consumed a little. If this air war consumes nearly 200 American aircraft, the mobile force of the United States will not be enough to continue to compete with the Persian Gulf and the United Air Force. Go.
Of course, Americans can choose to give up some areas and continue to mobilize air forces into the Persian Gulf to confront and even go to war with the Joint Air Force. However, with two failures, the Americans will certainly not do so until they find a solution to the threat of the Somali strategic air force. Otherwise, it would be too stupid to know that they were sent to die. Is it a continuation? You know, although the failure of the United States in the Persian Gulf has a certain impact on the United States' influence in maintaining the Middle East and controlling the Middle East, it does not mean that the Third OECD can replace the United States as the first force in the Middle East. In this way, the United States will not allow it, and other forces will not allow it, and the Third OECD does not have that power.
Li Mo doesn't want to dominate the Middle East. He just wants to break a gap in the Western-dominated social order and system and give Somalia and other countries and nations who yearn for freedom and peace a little respite.
22:15.
This is the latest report of the air decisive battle in the Persian Gulf. The U.S. Air Force and Navy have lost 22 fighters, of which the F-22 fighters accounted for nearly half of the losses because they were the main attack targets of the Strategic Air Force, and a total of 10 F-22 fighters were shot down.
In the Persian Gulf air battle, the United States mobilized two F-22 fighter squadrons, with a total of more than 40 fighters. This time, a quarter of them have been shot down, and the losses are not small. If it was shot down in the last air battle, the U.S. Air Force almost lost a squadron's F-22, which is equivalent to throwing nearly 10 billion US dollars into the Persian Gulf.
On the side of the Joint Air Force, 15 aircraft have been lost at present, including one Su-27 fighter, and the rest are MiG-29 and J-10, while Iran's 'golden' F-14s have lost only one because they have been losing the least in the rear of the fleet.
At this time of the air war, if there is no accident, it can be expected that the United Air Force will defeat the U.S. Air Force again. Even Li Mo thinks so. This is not arrogant, but confidence in the Somali Strategic Air Force.
"Dear viewers, the balance of victory has tilted towards the United Air Force. If nothing happens, the United Air Force will win the air battle again..." In front of the camera, the reporter from a TV station in the United Arab Emirates is talking.
And at this time, the accident happened.
Behind the reporter, it was also on the sea in the direction facing the camera. Suddenly, a piece of the sea rose slightly, as if something was about to break out of the water. Then, a white missile warhead protruded from under the sea, followed by the missile body. Finally, on the bulging sea, a white missile rose to the sky with a tail flame.
"Oh... Allah is on, what is that... is it a missile?" The reporter also felt the movement behind him, and his eyes were about to protrude when he turned around.
Watching the missile break through the air, the reporter was also a responsive person and immediately screamed excitedly, "That's a submarine-launched missile!" There is also a submarine below... Americans, yes... It must be an American submarine. Allah is here, and the Americans are really ready here!"
As the reporter said, it is a submarine-launched missile, and it is also a submarine-air missile that has been controversial in the world. Although submarine-to-air missiles have been proposed for a long time, and the former Soviet Union, Britain and other countries have even equipped submarine-to-air missiles on submarines, it is still controversial whether submarines need anti-to-air missiles.
The mainstream believes that the biggest advantage of submarines is the hidden surname, which is because it is difficult to detect that submarines have gradually become the key development direction of navies in various countries. Once the biggest advantage of the submarine's hidden surname no longer exists, the submarine is not even as good as a frigate.
The main purpose of developing submarine-to-air missiles is to let the submarines themselves come out of the cover to attack targets from the sky. In this way, it is difficult to predict the final outcome of the submarine without its own air cover. Therefore, submarines with anti-ships, anti-submarines, and launch cruise missiles and ballistic missiles on land are already a 'multi-purpose' weapon. There is no need to endanger the survival of submarines for the goal of air.
Another view is that submarines act alone most of the time and generally carry out tasks far within the scope of their own air cover. At this time, if the submarine is found by anti-submarine aircraft, the only thing the submarine can do is to escape, and it also depends on luck, but if the submarine has an anti-air counterattack. Attack ability, at least have the ability to counterattack against highly threatening targets such as short-range low-altitude anti-submarine helicopters.
Each of the two views has its own advantages, but at present, the first view still occupies the mainstream. This is not only because people with this view are unwilling to change the submarine combat mode, but also because there are still difficulties in many technical aspects, such as the guidance of submarine-air missiles, because submarines generally detect targets through sonar, and most of them are passive, and the radar on submarines are generally not far away, and most of them Time does not dare to turn on, otherwise it is easy to expose the target. Without radar help, if the missile wants to hit the aircraft, it can only be guided by the radar of the missile itself or guided by a third party, such as taking over the guidance of the missile through satellites, early warning aircraft, etc.
Because of various drawbacks and technical defects, submarine-to-air missiles are only a few countries trying. When were U.S. submarines equipped with submarine-to-air missiles?
