Dominate South Asia

When the Nighthawk was still a prototype, the Americans conducted experiments. As a result, their own air defense radar could not detect the Nighthawk at all, proving the excellent radar stealth capabilities of this aircraft, which was greatly appreciated by the U.S. Air Force. , signed a contract with Lockheed, and continued to develop into the current attack aircraft.

However, the radar in the United States at that time was not a meter-wave radar, and this kind of radar had been eliminated by them. If they had used meter-wave radar to conduct experiments, they would not be so optimistic.

Now, in the darkness, the meter-wave radar in the woods is rotating. Every time it rotates, the tracking signal will be refreshed. The two targets are coming here from the northeast sea!

"The target is very blurry." Kazak looked at the radar screen in front of him and heard the radar operator say to Kazak: "If it were before, we would not pay attention to this signal at all, just like the reflection of clouds."

Although this is also a meter-wave radar, it is not the original backward meter-wave radar. The antenna has not changed, the transmitter and receiver have not changed, but the target recognition and processing system have undergone great changes in the later period, and there are various This complex program, combined with a high-performance computer, can distinguish clouds and radar reflections from special targets.

But the signal is still very vague.

"The altitude is between 5,000 and 7,000 meters, and the distance is about 100 kilometers." The radar operator said: "When the target flies closer, there should be more obvious signal characteristics."

This kind of meter-wave radar is mainly used for long-range early warning in the air defense network. It can detect a distance of about 400 kilometers, and now, it has discovered the target at a distance of 100 kilometers. It's just that I can't detect it more clearly.

"The phased array radar is powered on and ready to be powered on at any time, and the SA-3 missile is powered on and ready to be launched at any time!" Kazak said.

It has entered the final moment. It is time to test whether it can shoot down a stealth aircraft in one fell swoop and test the combat capabilities of this current system! We only have one chance! Regardless of whether you hit or not, retreat quickly! This is simply taking grain from the fire!

When Pakistan becomes stronger, the United States will definitely regard Pakistan as a potential enemy in the event of encountering it in a war. Stealth aircraft will be Pakistan’s biggest challenge! Therefore, in addition to making unremitting efforts to develop its own stealth aircraft, Pakistan is also developing methods to combat stealth aircraft!

Now, it’s time to test the effect!

The nighthawks in the sky continue to fly forward. According to the predetermined target position, they will fly over the barracks in Rio Alto Town and drop the laser bombs they carry.

As the distance approaches, the onboard fire control system has begun to work. Calibrate raw flight errors and prepare for laser guidance.

As a stealth aircraft, all of the Nighthawk's fire control systems are passively detectable. There is no active radar to avoid radiating electromagnetic waves and being discovered by the enemy, and the weapons it throws are mainly laser-guided bombs.

The internal inertial gyro of the 900-kilogram laser-guided bomb has also been activated at this time, and calibration has begun. Everything is according to the planned plan.

"The target is close to within fifteen kilometers." On the ground. said the meter wave radar operator.

Fifteen kilometers! This is already a very close distance!

"Turn on the phased array radar! Missile ignition, one every five seconds, shoot out all the missiles we brought!" Kazak ordered.

Following Kazakh's order, the missile launcher outside was filled with flames, and a missile trailed tongues of flame at its tail. It flew into the sky, and five seconds later, the second one flew into the sky again!

If you are familiar with the operation of anti-aircraft missiles, you will be surprised at this time. Because the missile at this time has not intercepted the target. It's completely an uncontrolled rocket!

This missile is guided by radio commands. As long as the ground control radar below sends control signals in time, it can still have guidance capabilities. But now, this missile is launched first, with an interval of five seconds, and does not use the common A double salvo is needed to shoot down a stealth aircraft!

The phased array radar has also been turned on, and all the beams are focused on the direction indicated by the meter-wave radar. Electromagnetic radiation fills the sky. Then, a small amount of echo returns, showing a blurry and sometimes disappearing shadow on the screen.

The radar reflection area of ​​the F-117 is only 0.01 square meters, which is equivalent to the size of a helmet! Meter-wave radar sees an aircraft. Because the radar has a long wavelength, its accuracy is unfortunately not high enough. Phased array radar is an S-band, which happens to be the band that the F-117 is good at. Therefore, today's advanced phased array radar, Almost all the beams are concentrated into the corresponding airspace, but it is still unable to accurately provide guidance information.

"Use manual tracking!" The radar operators immediately changed their methods and used manual assisted tracking. At the same time, they were also waiting for the last chance.

The nighthawk in the sky continued to fly. When it reached the target ten kilometers away, Whitley calmly gave the order: "Drop the bomb!"

Laser-guided bombs fly without power and are not stand-off weapons. Moreover, the throwing distance is related to the height. If it is at an altitude of more than 10,000 meters, it can be thrown from 20 kilometers away. But now, they The height is most confident when it is ten kilometers.

As he gave the order, his fingers simultaneously pressed the red button on the joystick. As long as he waited one more minute and continued to provide laser beam guidance to the laser-guided bomb, he would complete the mission and could return home.

This was an easy attack mission! Except that the flight time was too long!

As he pressed the button, the two bomb bay doors under the flat belly opened quickly under the action of the hydraulic rod, and the laser-guided bomb would be thrown from inside!

At this moment, he suddenly saw something flying a few kilometers in front of him in the dark night sky, pointing straight to the sky. Suddenly, he was shocked. Was it an anti-aircraft missile?

The F-117 has a proud low detectability, with an RCS value as low as 0.01! However, the moment its bomb bay door opened, its stealth performance was destroyed!

The bomb bay door perpendicular to the fuselage, the various components inside, will reflect a large amount of radar waves. At this moment, the target on the screen of the phased array radar on the ground is very clear!

"The first missile has missed, the second missile is about to arrive! Switch to automatic control!" Kazakh shouted.

Success or failure depends on this one move!

Shooting out all the missiles is just waiting for the opportunity. The one that is closest will be the one to succeed! Now, the timing is just right!

The high-speed computer is running fast. In the two seconds when the other party opened and closed the hatch, the second SAM 3 missile has accurately locked the target, turned, and continued to fly forward for two seconds. Then, the high-energy warhead with 70 kilograms of high explosives exploded with its own roar, and 3,670 fragments scattered and filled the surrounding space.

When he heard the explosion, Whitley was shocked. He knew that he had been ambushed. This was a carefully planned ambush! He wanted to pull the operating lever to evade, but it was too late. Several fragments hit his plane. Suddenly, countless red lights flashed on the dashboard in front of him.

Parachute! Without thinking, he pulled the ejection handle. This is Panama! After landing, he needs to call for help from other invading US troops to rescue him as soon as possible!

The second Nighthawk turned urgently and began to withdraw from the battle without dropping bombs. Because it did not open the bomb bay door, it was not tracked by missiles. Although subsequent missiles continued to explode in the sky, forming a terrible barrage of fragments, he still escaped by chance.

"The rest of the convoy will be ready to move immediately. The phased array radar monitors the falling trajectory of the shot down aircraft. Abd, take your people and follow me to pick up the wreckage! Within three hours, you must complete the retreat according to the original plan!" Kazakh said.

This battle went very smoothly, proving that stealth aircraft can be shot down! Their last task is to find the wreckage of the stealth aircraft that has been shot down and take it away! Even if it crashed, the wreckage will be a great inspiration to Pakistani developers!

The entire position was busy in a hurry. Several people jumped on trucks. These trucks were all off-road chassis. At the same time, one of them was equipped with a crane. They began to move quickly in the direction monitored by the phased array radar.

Find the wreckage!

There was a roar again in the sky, and the Americans' formal attack finally began!

Originally, the Americans planned to use stealth aircraft as the first wave of attack aircraft, but who knew that the attack was not successful, but this did not affect the subsequent actions. More aircraft have entered the sky over Panama and began to bomb various targets they identified.

This is a war that has nothing to do with us! We just want to find the wreckage!

Wearing night vision goggles, Abd looked around. This is a field. If the plane falls, it will definitely get hot, which can be clearly displayed in his night vision goggles! The plane was not blown up in the air, but fell because of being hit by fragments. The fuselage must still be intact!

"Attention, when the plane fell, it drifted about five kilometers to the northeast." The voice of the radar operator came from the radio.

The complete Nighthawk is stealth. After being blown up, it becomes a very obvious target. The phased array radar has been tracking steadily and observing the place where the Nighthawk fell.

At this time, explosions began to sound all around, and other American planes had already flown over Panama. The war had begun! (To be continued ~^~)
