Return to 78: Why are all the Americans panicking about doing scientific research?

“By rote memorization.”

Lin Kaifeng told Chief Mustafa the history of the birth of Longguo's anti-ship missile.

Early models of anti-ship missiles came from Soviet missiles.

As the relationship between Longguo and Gaul gradually improved, a large number of Gallic military equipment were imported into Longguo, mainly helicopters.

In the later period, Gaul changed its previous style of fair and just trading.

Every time we export weapons to Long Country, the price is always higher.

The similar expressions of Gaul and the United States made Longguo realize that continuing to import weapons from abroad would only lead to being strangled by others day by day.

Gradually began to carry out independent research and development of various new weapons.

In 1984, Longguo publicly unveiled a new type of anti-ship missile, which had many similarities with the Gaul Exocet missile in terms of both appearance and relevant data.

Let’s go back to 1973.

Gaul invited Longguo technical experts to observe the test launch of the Exocet missile and took the initiative to show Longguo the relevant technical data and product manual of the Exocet missile.

Confident that Longguo would definitely purchase the expensive Exocet missiles, Gaul provided technical information covering a large number of core technologies.

Includes missile control, guidance, monopulse radar, radio gyroscope.

Seeing that the Longguo scientific research experts were watching with great interest, Gaul offered a price.

The price was ridiculously high, and they refused to transfer the technology patents to Longguo.

Simply put, Gaul only sells missiles to Longguo and does not provide any other missile-related technologies.

Chief Mustafa muttered to himself, "Through the product manual and data provided by Gaul, have you copied the Exocet missile that belongs to Dragon Country?"

Lin Kaifeng said proudly, "Perhaps this sounds too fantastic to you, but it is true. If you are interested, you can look for relevant reports from the past few years. my country's anti-ship missiles are almost identical to Exocet missiles, both in design and overall theory. The only difference is that the strike accuracy and strike power of China's anti-ship missiles are superior to Exocet missiles. The maximum range of the initial model can reach 50 kilometers, with a hit rate of up to 90%. The warhead is equipped with 170 kilograms of high explosives, and the launch speed is infinitely close to Mach 1."

At this point, Lin Kaifeng raised a finger and said in a playful tone: "Your Highness, why don't you guess how many tons of warships can be sunk by an anti-ship missile?"

"How many hundreds of tons?"

After saying that, Chief Mustafa saw Lin Kaifeng shaking his head slightly, and then asked: "One thousand tons?"

"Three thousand tons."

“Three thousand tons!!!”

Chief Mustafa's brain was buzzing. A Dragon Country anti-ship missile could sink a 3,000-ton ship.

Once this type of anti-ship missile is brought to the desert world, none of the active warships in the hands of various countries will be able to withstand the attack of the anti-ship missile.

How large is the displacement of the US frigates and missile destroyers?

At most, it's only a few thousand tons.

There is only one type of warship that weighs more than 10,000 tons: an aircraft carrier.

Lin Kaifeng seemed to have said just now that Longguo's missile speedboat is equipped with ten anti-ship missiles. If all ten anti-ship missiles are fired at the same time...

Chief Mustafa took a deep breath, widened his eyes and said, "The hit rate is 90%. If ten missiles are launched at the same time, even if only half of them hit the target, it can cause serious damage to the aircraft carrier."

Lin Kaifeng said with a pun: "Assuming that each country has a certain number of missile speedboats, the anti-ship missiles on them can not only pose a direct threat to aircraft carriers, but also become the protector of your territorial waters."

"Over the years, the United States has been trying to infiltrate its military power into the desert world. Now that you have Sea Shark-class missile speedboats in your coastal waters, how dare the US aircraft carrier battle group confront you?"

Chief Mustafa nodded repeatedly.

Lin Kaifeng is absolutely right.

In recent years, the United States has tried time and again to deploy its military forces in the desert world.

It is no longer satisfied with leasing air force bases in the desert world and deploying fighter jets and some military personnel. It is more about building large-scale military bases in various desert countries.

"Your Highness, please follow me."

Feeling that the time was right, Lin Kaifeng brought Chief Mustafa to a warehouse guarded by soldiers.

The door opened, revealing several slender missiles placed in a prominent position in the warehouse.

Chief Mustafa walked forward quickly and said as he walked: "Brother Lin, is this your anti-ship missile?"

Lin Kaifeng said: "Your Highness, Chief, let me introduce to you that the missile you saw is our Dragon Country's domestically produced Eagle Strike anti-ship missile, also known as the warship killer."

"At present, I have led the technical staff to upgrade the range of anti-ship missiles. According to the current research results, its strike range has been extended from 50 kilometers to more than 100 kilometers. In the next stage, we will focus on strengthening its attack power, completing the warhead modification, equipping the anti-ship missiles with electronic fuses, and enhancing armor-piercing and blasting capabilities."

"In a few months, you will see that the target of a single anti-ship missile kill will no longer be a 3,000-ton frigate, but a 5,000 to 8,000-ton missile destroyer."

Chief Mustafa said hastily, "How much explosives can the upgraded warhead hold?"

"In theory, it can hold 700 kilograms of explosives."

"Seven hundred kilograms?!"

After hearing this, Chief Mustafa almost fainted.

Xu Tian really likes to breathe heavily when he speaks.

I thought the previous data was scary enough that an anti-ship missile could sink or damage a 3,000-ton frigate.

It is absolutely horrible beyond belief.

These are just the initial data of the missile.

After upgrading and modification, the power of anti-ship missiles will be increased several times.

The targets are no longer small and medium-sized frigates, but destroyers over 5,000 tons.

Lin Kaifeng walked to a missile and reached out to touch the missile's wings.

"Your Highness, please take a look. This missile has been equipped with double wings, and its width has become 3 meters. This technology can greatly improve the stability of the missile after launch, allowing the missile to perform precise strikes over hundreds of kilometers in a relatively stable state."

Immediately afterwards, Lin Kaifeng simulated an anti-ship missile with his hands.

The Longguo anti-ship missile has the same attack mode as the Exocet missile.

Once launched, it will shoot towards the enemy along the sea surface, at a height of about five meters from the sea surface.

It is a low-altitude launch method.

At present, the upgrade of anti-ship missiles has made certain progress, and the main difficulty lies in how to complete the attack mission unhindered under electronic interference.

When it comes to electronic jamming technology, the United States ranks second, and there is no other country like it in the world.

Once the anti-ship missiles are fired at the US aircraft carrier, the US will definitely block and interfere.

at this time.

For the anti-ship missiles developed by Longguo, the radar guidance system is crucial.
