As the **** warship, the standard anti-aircraft missiles on the Arkansas are not ready to launch at any time! At the same time, the radar on the warship, so far, has not captured the target!
The sps-48a three-coordinate air-to-air warning radar, sps-40b two-coordinate air-to-air radar, sps-55 sea search radar, and various radars are constantly searching. However, for missiles flying close to the sea, The distance they found was no more than twenty kilometers!
"Launch missiles, launch missiles!" The officer on duty shouted loudly before he could catch the target.
Although the standard missile is a dual-arm launcher, in this case, it is too late when the radar searches for the target and then launches the missile! Supersonic anti-ship missiles, the interception window left for one's own side, only once!
So, launch the missile in advance, wait until the opponent's missile is caught, and attack immediately! After all, the range of a standard missile is more than seventy kilometers! Flying in the air for a while is enough!
At the tail of the huge cruiser, the flames flickered, and two standard missiles, dragging their flames, left the launcher in turn. In the dark night sky, two shining bands of light were drawn.
At the same time, after the two missiles were launched, the automatic loading mechanism below worked immediately, and the spare bombs were hung up again, and everything went quite quickly.
"Find the target, find the target, the distance is thirty! Prepare to lock!" On the Arkansas, the radar officer shouted loudly, and in just a few dozen seconds, the other party had already flown to a distance of thirty kilometers! At this time, the atmosphere inside the warship is very tense, this is a race against time! Although you can't see the hail of bullets, it's even more thrilling!
"The radar has been locked, and the data link is connected to the standard missiles!" the operator of the sps-51 fire control radar shouted loudly. Two standard missiles had just been fired, and they just flew into the sky! Just enough to intercept the opponent!
If it was in the past, the US Navy's anti-aircraft missiles could not intercept supersonic aircraft at all. However, the Soviets' MiG-25 gave Americans a lot of stimulation. Their fighters could not fly to the double-three indicators. We can only work **** anti-aircraft missiles, overcome various technical difficulties successively, and successfully develop anti-aircraft missiles that intercept supersonic aircraft.
The standard missile is an important regional air defense missile for the US Navy, and the task of intercepting the supersonic MiG-25 fighter jet is the standard 2 missile.
So now, using this missile to intercept fast-flying sea-skimming anti-ship missiles also has this ability! The highly nervous shooter, with his fingers trembling slightly, flipped various switches and quickly guided the missile.
Time is measured in seconds!
"One interception succeeded!" The operator of the search radar looked at his own radar screen, a bright spot disappeared, and could not help shouting loudly, just at a distance of 25 kilometers, his own Standard 2 missiles successfully Intercepted an anti-ship missile!
However, the trajectory of the second missile crossed the target! The second interception failed!
One of the six flying missiles was intercepted, and now, there are five remaining!
"Quick, the second round of standard missiles!" the commander continued to shout.
"No, it's too late!" At this moment, the captain wearing underwear hurried up: "Pallet formation, intercept immediately! The naval guns attack immediately! Left full rudder!"
When the standard missile ignites, lifts off, and accelerates, the interception opportunity has been lost! Supersonic anti-ship missiles have always been so overbearing! We only have the last interception method of Phalanx!
As the last barrier, the Phalanx system is killed by a large number of projectiles. However, now it is only the basic block0 type of Phalanx, which can only intercept non-sea-skimming, subsonic, and no maneuverable anti-ship missiles!
In the block1a type, it has more powerful search and tracking capabilities, and can intercept various high-subsonic, sea-skimming and maneuverable anti-ship missiles.
The block1b model continued to improve, adding a photoelectric searcher, using an optimized barrel and more devastating ammunition, etc.
It has higher confrontation ability against sea-skimming targets, and improves the air combat capability of 'Phalanx' in complex environments.
Almost at the same time, several nearby destroyers had also used their radars to lock on the incoming missiles. One after another, standard missiles flew out of the warship and rushed towards the target.
Unfortunately, it's too late!
At this time, the anti-ship missile flying sea-skimming on the sea, 15 kilometers away from the target, has already started maneuvering flight! The supersonic speed would have brought a serious test to the opponent's air defense system, and the air defense system with insufficient response could not intercept the supersonic anti-ship missile at all, and now, when this missile performs an S-type maneuver~www. novelhall.com~ One after another air defense missiles flew past, all lost their targets!
"Boom!" At this moment, a bright fire broke out on the sea, and it was a high-speed flying sun-burning missile that was intercepted again!
Six flying anti-ship missiles, four remaining! The second intercepted missile was purely a matter of luck!
Ten kilometers away! At this distance, it is too late to launch a missile!
In the exciting sound of electric current, the six-tube Phalanx system began to eject countless projectiles! At this time, with the order of the left full rudder, the huge Arkansas drew a beautiful arc on the sea, using its large hull to block the back of its own fleet, it was using itself to protect Formation aircraft carrier! This is the unshirkable responsibility of the **** warships!
At the same time, when it turns, it can also make the Phalanx system on one side have a good shooting range! And the recent anti-ship missiles have already flown within range!
Block, block! The gun barrels of the Phalanx system continued to emit fire, and projectiles flew out one by one, forming a dense barrage on the sea, but in the eyes of the sunburn missile, it was still too slow! It simply can't keep up with the missiles that are in the final maneuvering flight!
Perhaps it was its interception that stimulated the incoming Sunburn anti-ship missile, which abandoned its previously set target and instead rushed towards the huge nuclear-powered battleship USS Arkansas!
And the other three sunburn missiles, drawing a beautiful curve at sea, actually bypassed the Arkansas!
When the Sunburn anti-ship missile was designed, the idea of stealth has not been introduced. The infrared characteristics of this huge missile cannot be concealed. Especially in the current night, many naval officers and soldiers can visually detect those flying objects. Coming missiles!
