Chapter 972： detonate nuclear bomb

Almost all the missile technology in the world comes from the German v2 missile during World War II. The United States obtained German technical personnel, while the Soviet Union started from a prototype of a v2 missile.

Therefore, the first missiles were all liquid fuels, and this kind of liquid fuel had many inconveniences, because it was corrosive, and many needed to be refilled before launching, and because the fuel was poisonous, it was quite dangerous to refill, and , once a fuel leak occurs, the entire launch base may become a dead zone.

Therefore, liquid fuel only solves the problem of availability. In order to better utilize the advantages of ballistic missiles, solid missiles are the direction.

The fuel of the solid missile is directly loaded inside the missile when it is produced, eliminating the need for complex fuel filling, detection and other steps. It is almost after the missile self-check is completed, the target data can be bound, and then the missile can be launched, and even the missile can be launched. Ten targets were bound in advance, and if those targets were the ones that needed to be hit, it would be faster.

Therefore, after the superpowers have completed the question of whether they have or not, they are rapidly moving towards solid missiles. The United States has developed a series of Minuteman missiles, which is such a product. There are three types of missiles in this series. Equip troops. The bomb is 17.55 meters long, 1.67 meters in diameter, and has a take-off weight of 33.1 tons. The warhead power is 1 to 2 million tons of tnt equivalent, the range is 11,260 kilometers, and the hit accuracy is 560 meters.

The original Minuteman 1 missile, which was quickly retired. Now the main equipment is the Militia 3 type.

This missile is 18.26 meters long, 1.67 meters in diameter, and has a take-off weight of 35.4 tons. It carries a split-guided multi-warhead with 3 warheads. Each warhead has a power of 175,000 tons of tnt equivalent. to 450 meters.

The split warhead is also a feature of the new generation of missiles. Although the yield of the warhead is reduced, it increases the difficulty of interception. When a warhead suddenly splits into three warheads, it is simply a nightmare for the interceptor!

At the same time, the upper section of the warhead also has the ability to change orbit.

Just show the Soviets the advanced technology of the United States, which they cannot intercept!

In front of the console, the operator is fully focused, the system has been activated, the two main operators have inserted all the keys into the console, and the rows of instrument lights are lit. Now, they are waiting for the order!

Finally, from Air Force One, the launch order came!

emission! With the arrival of the order, the two main operators turned their keys half a turn at the same time, entered the password, obtained authorization, and then pressed the launch button on the console!

In an instant, there was a violent shaking in the entire control room, which was the vibration caused by the missile launch!

The cover of the 750-ton silo has been opened under the action of the hydraulic mechanism. A few meters away from the two sides of the cover, a white smoke came out from the two smoke exhaust holes. Then, the huge missile in the silo , start to take off!

The initial launch was quite slow, the acceleration of the missile took time, and the impact force of the solid rocket motor hit the base below, causing the entire launch position to vibrate continuously. In the blazing flame, the missile was pushed out and launched. well!

This is a huge missile. From the outside, it is so spectacular. It is like a dragon coming out of water. It is the most powerful weapon in the United States, an intercontinental ballistic missile!

After the deployment, it was the first time that live ammunition was fired!

The tail of the missile dragged the flames, the missile continued to climb upwards, and the speed began to increase.

Successful launch!

As long as the missile leaves the silo, the launch is successful! It's just that the operators are not excited at all. They know that they have just released Pandora's box, and the battle may happen tragically in the next half hour!

The whole body is milky white missile, with thick smoke dragging from its tail. During its ascent, almost all of it is shrouded in white smoke. Its speed is getting faster and faster!

All the people don't know, in space, the Scythians are already ready!

The infrared radiation emitted by the missile was instantly detected by the missile early warning satellite, and the data was transmitted to the Scythians within half a second! Using the latest electronic technology, the high-speed CPU chip was rapidly calculating. After two seconds, the interception operation was completed. Then, it took another two seconds for the Scythian's engine to jet and adjust its orbit.

The entire interception process takes five seconds. So far, the Scythians have not really intercepted it!

Because, the real interception does not require time at all. Measured by the speed of light, any distance on the earth is quite short, so short that light will come in an instant!

Now, that's it!

With all the preparations completed, the Scythian laser system at the lower end of the Scythian finally began to burst, 2 megawatts, maximum power, lasting one second!

The powerful laser beam is generated from the internal gas laser, enters the vast space through the lens in front, and enters the atmosphere in an instant!

In the atmosphere, the laser will be attenuated continuously Moreover, because of the different density of the atmosphere, it will also produce refraction, which is also one of the reasons why the laser weapon is restricted when it attacks the atmosphere. And Soviet scientists have solved the complex calculation problem of air refraction, and more importantly, because of the advancement of electronic technology, among the Scythians, these complex calculations can already be completed!

The laser beam passed through the atmosphere, and although the beam began to bend, it still accurately flew to the body of the climbing militia missile!

The laser beam is vertical, and the laser beam lasts for one second, which just burns the militia missile in the ascending stage from the warhead to the tail!

Of course, without waiting for the tail to burn, the entire missile had already exploded!

Brilliant fireworks exploded over the launch base, and a fiery ball of fire appeared in the sky. The missile unit responsible for the observation was instantly dumbfounded.

"Quick, dodge!" The people who stayed at the base immediately realized that the missile was carrying a genuine nuclear warhead! It was originally aimed at the shooting range at the other end of the United States, but now, as soon as the missile took off, it had already exploded!

When the laser was in outer space, no one saw it, and now, after the laser that flew from space, after it was shot into the atmosphere, many people saw it, so dazzling, it was brighter than the sun!

That beam of light slammed into the missile and exploded the missile directly. It was just too frustrating!

At the same time, the missile carried three sub-guided warheads. As the missile exploded, these warheads also fell down!

These warheads will not be detonated if they do not reach the intended target, but after all, they are nuclear warheads. Even if there is no explosion, just the leakage of the warhead will be enough for the people on the ground to suffer from excessive nuclear radiation and die!
