Red Soviet Union

As the escorting 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 has not captured the target so far!

The sps-48a three-coordinate air-to-air warning radar, the sps-40b two-coordinate air-to-air radar, the sps-55 sea-to-sea search radar, and various radars are constantly searching. However, for missiles flying close to the sea, The distance they found would not exceed twenty kilometers!

Launch missiles, launch missiles! Can't wait to catch the target, the officer on duty shouted loudly.

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! For supersonic anti-ship missiles, there is only one interception window left for one's own side!

Therefore, launch the missile in advance, wait until the opponent's missile is caught, and attack immediately! After all, the range of standard missiles is more than 70 kilometers! It's enough to fly in the air for a while!

At the tail of the huge cruiser, flames flickered, and two standard missiles, dragging their flames, left the launch pads one by one, and two shining bands of light were drawn in the dark night sky.

At the same time, after the launch of the two missiles, the automatic loading mechanism below worked immediately to reload the spare ammunition, and everything went quite quickly.

Target found, target found, distance 30! Prepare to lock! On the Arkansas, the radar officer shouted loudly. In just a few tens of seconds, the opponent had already flown to a distance of 30 kilometers! At this time, the atmosphere inside the warship is very tense, it is a race against time! Although you can't see the hail of bullets, it's even more thrilling!

The radar is locked, and the data link is connected to the standard missile! The operator of the sps-51 fire control radar shouted loudly. Two standard missiles were just fired, and they just flew into the sky! Just enough to intercept the opponent!

In the past, the U.S. Navy’s anti-aircraft missiles could not intercept supersonic aircraft at all. However, the Soviet MiG-25 gave the Americans a lot of stimulation. Their fighters could not fly to the double-three indicator. It can only be that we have worked hard on air defense missiles. We have overcome various technical difficulties and successfully developed air defense missiles that intercept supersonic aircraft.

The standard missile is an important regional air defense missile of the US Navy. The task of intercepting the supersonic MiG-25 fighter is the standard 2 missile.

So now, using this kind of missile to intercept the fast-flying sea-skimming anti-ship missile also has this ability! The highly nervous shooter, with slightly trembling fingers, flipped various switches and quickly guided the missile.

Time is calculated in seconds!

A successful interception! The operator of the search radar saw a bright spot disappearing on his own radar screen, and couldn't help shouting loudly. At a distance of 25 kilometers, his standard 2 missile successfully intercepted the missile. An anti-ship missile was intercepted!

However, the trajectory of the second missile crossed the target! The second interception failed!

Of the six missiles flying over, one was intercepted, and now, there are five left!

Quick, the second round of standard missiles! The commander continued to shout.

No, it's too late! At this moment, the captain in underwear hurried up: Phalanx, intercept immediately! Naval guns attack immediately! Left full rudder!

When the standard missile is ignited, lifted into the air, and accelerated, the chance of interception has been lost! Supersonic anti-ship missiles have always been so overbearing! Only the Phalanx is the last way of interception left on our side!

as the last barrier,

The Phalanx system relies on a large number of projectiles to kill, but now it is only the block 0 type of the Phalanx, which is the basic type. It can only intercept non-sea-skimming, subsonic, and non-maneuverable anti-ship missiles!

When it comes to 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 type continues to improve, adding photoelectric searchers, using optimized barrels and more destructive ammunition, and so on.

It has a higher ability to fight against sea-skimming targets, and improves the air-to-air combat capability of the \\'Phalanx\\' in complex environments.

Almost at the same time, several destroyers nearby had already locked on the incoming missiles with their radars, and standard missiles flew out of the warships and rushed towards the target.

Unfortunately, it was too late!

At this time, the anti-ship missile flying across the sea, fifteen kilometers away from the target, has already started maneuvering! Supersonic speed will bring a serious test to the opponent's air defense system. An air defense system with insufficient response cannot intercept supersonic anti-ship missiles at all. But now, when such missiles perform S-type maneuvers, one All the anti-aircraft missiles that flew past lost their targets!

Boom! At this moment, a flash of flames erupted from the sea. It was a sun-burning missile flying at high speed that was intercepted again!

Six anti-ship missiles flew in, and there were four left! The second intercepted missile was pure luck!

Ten kilometers away! At this distance, it is too late to launch missiles!

Amidst the exciting sound of electric current, the six-tube Phalanx system began to eject countless projectiles! At this time, following the order of the left full rudder, the huge USS Arkansas drew a beautiful arc on the sea, using its large hull to block the back of its own fleet, and it was using itself to protect Formation aircraft carrier! This is the unshirkable responsibility of escorting warships!

At the same time, when it turns, it just allows the Phalanx system on one side to have a good shooting range! And the recent anti-ship missiles have already flown within range!

Intercept, intercept! The gun barrel of the Phalanx system continued to emit flames, and projectiles flew out one by one, forming a dense barrage on the sea, but, in the eyes of the sun-burning missile, it was still too slow! It simply can't keep up with the missiles that are undergoing terminal maneuvering flight!

Perhaps it was its interception that stimulated the incoming sun-burning anti-ship missile. This missile gave up its previously set target and turned to pounce on the huge nuclear-powered battleship Arkansas!

And the other three sun-burning missiles drew a beautiful curve on the sea, and actually bypassed the Arkansas!

When designing the Sunburn anti-ship missile, the idea of ​​stealth has not been introduced. The infrared characteristics of this huge missile cannot be concealed. Especially at night, many naval officers and soldiers can visually spot those flying missiles. Here come the missiles!
