Chapter 1941 The coquettish red flag-3, the red flag-9 cannot be intercepted

"What's going on? Why did their fighter planes find out when they approached the command center? Is our radar malfunctioning?"

Hearing the sound of air defense alarms outside, Rekron roared and asked his men.

"Terminal Commander, the missile is coming, and the opponent fires a ballistic missile, which is very fast, and it will arrive at the headquarters in about 260 seconds..."

The intelligence officer is about to cry.

260 seconds, or their estimated time.

It is very likely that the time is shorter than this.

"Ballistic missiles? Where did they come from the strategic missiles?"

Everyone was stunned.

"They asked the Second Artillery Force to launch the Second Artillery Force? The Second Artillery Test Fires Dongfeng, but there was no notice in advance? Nothing happened!"

General Ye Fei is really powerless.

Too much.

In an exercise, even the strategic missiles of the Second Artillery were completed. This exercise was just a ball, so it just simulated the atomic bomb attack and then the exercise ended.

"Commander, Division Commander, please leave the headquarters immediately. The other party fired three ballistic missiles at our headquarters and were approaching at high speed..."

“Woo~”

The shrill air defense alarm still resounded over the entire command center.

Three!

Not three ordinary missiles, but ballistic missiles.

"Intercept! Order the surrounding air defense missile battalion and intercept immediately!" Rekron roared.

This is slapping him in the face of the First Air Defense Division.

I know that their first air defense division is equipped with powerful air defense missiles and is equipped with various types of air defense missiles. When the fighter comes in, he can only become a target and actually uses ballistic missiles to attack!

Since the opponent's missile has 260 seconds to reach the battlefield, it means that it has not yet entered the stage of re-entering the atmosphere.

Ballistic missiles cannot be intercepted after entering the atmosphere again.

Too fast.

260 seconds, it looks a lot, but in fact it is only a little over four minutes.

Are you just letting the opponent's missiles bomb?

The answer is obviously not the case.

The First Air Defense Division has the most advanced air defense missiles in China.

If you are not prepared from the beginning, this time will not be enough to calculate the opponent's ballistics and complete the entire missile launch process.

But now it is different. At the beginning, various air defense missiles are in a state of waiting to be launched.

The first batch of the opponent must have been air strikes. The first air defense division has entered a first-level combat readiness state since the exercise, and can launch air defense missiles and intercept the enemy's air attack echelon in the shortest time.

Rekron's order made his officers stunned.

How to intercept it in such a short time?

"Start the Red Flag-9 intercepting that is being tested! Other short-range air defense missiles are ready!" Rekron did not explain too much.

No one talks nonsense.

The order is conveyed quickly.

Although everyone in the entire Air Defense Division knows that the Hongqi-9 medium and long-range air defense missile is currently only in the experimental stage and may not necessarily complete the task.

But when facing ballistic missiles, there is only such a chance.

The alarm was still sounding shrillly, making people feel depressed.

In the entire Red Army temporary command center, all the staff and commanders were busy at their jobs, but there were no too many sounds.

The screen on the air defense radar display is above the atmosphere, and the target with a height of 33,000 meters from the ground is quickly approaching this area.

A valley more than ten kilometers southwest of the headquarters.

Several special vehicles painted with military green camouflage gathered together.

The high-power radar on the radar car is spinning wildly.

The power supply vehicle is also connected to the surrounding missile launch vehicles and starts to supply power.

Behind the three missile launchers, each with a triple missile launcher, which is much larger than ordinary launchers.

At this moment, these missile launchers have been vertically erected behind the launcher.

As long as the command vehicle transmits the target data to the missile guidance system through the computer, these missiles can be taken off at any time.

The entire launching position was busy nervously.

The radar here also detected missiles at high altitudes.

"The superior orders to launch missiles immediately and intercept enemy attack missiles!"

"Immediately calculate the opponent's missile trajectory and calculate the best interception point..."

Orders are passed one by one.

Vehicles with various functions are playing their respective roles. The missile battalion has not many equipment but many personnel.

"Target data input, ready to be launched!"

"Height, 33,000 meters; speed 1437.56; direction, 0523; distance, 260 kilometers..."

"The air defense missile is not launched enough..."

When accurately calculating the flight direction of the opponent's missile, the officers and soldiers of the Hongqi-9 air defense missile battalion and the engineers of the development unit found that they should be proud of the Hongqi-9, which had a height of 30,000 meters, was not enough.

How can I intercept this?

The difference is 3,000 meters.

It has a range of 200 kilometers, a speed of up to Mach 4.2, and even a minimum range of 6 kilometers. The minimum shooting height also requires 500 meters. Such an advanced air defense missile cannot reach the enemy's missile!

"The opponent's missile has changed its tracks and is decreasing altitude!"

While everyone didn't know what to do, the data on the radar display faithfully responded that the enemy's missiles were rapidly decreasing!

Now, there are only 94 seconds left.

The distance is only 135 kilometers.

"The opponent's missile is accelerating!"

The data on the radar still quickly feedback messages from the air.

Above the ground height 32 kilometers.

Dozens of missiles are flying at high speed.

Originally, these missiles, like aircraft, flew rapidly directly over the atmosphere, maintaining a height of the ground, just like fish that have been maintaining their own swimming layer in the ocean.

All of this was faithfully fed back to the ground by the satellite.

Satellites at high altitude can clearly observe all this.

"Second stage booster separates, lowers the height, prepares for penetration!"

Blue Army Command.

In the scene where the needle was originally audible, Tang Xin's cold voice sounded.

The members of the observation group who had been watching the big screen had already been very cold in their hearts.

This is not a ballistic missile on the other side.

But it is harder to defend against than ballistic missiles.

After the ballistic missile is launched, it will start to generate missiles, fly into outer space in the form of a parabola, and then change orbit at the highest point, accelerating while decreasing the altitude, and at the same time, under the action of gravity, attack the target at a higher speed.

Therefore, theoretically speaking, ballistic missiles can be intercepted during the stage of re-entering the atmosphere.

But these missiles are different.

After launching, it entered the atmosphere and was indeed following the trajectory of the parabola, but at the altitude of 33,000 meters, the tail booster separated. At the same time, the main body of the missile changed its posture and glided against the atmosphere...

The track changes too much.

I didn't have much time to glide, but the warhead started to move down again. At this stage, I got out of the booster.

The images are not visible on the large screen, but the running trajectory of these missiles can be seen. After the booster leaves, it still moves forward due to inertia; while the main body of the missile is ignited at the tail and is tilted downward.

This requires very high computing power of radar.

Even the requirements for interception technology are very high.

If long-range ballistic missiles use such technology in war, can they still intercept?
To be continued...
