Report the situation to the command center, and the forest guards will lead the team to follow Colejon to the guerrilla camp. The Apache squadron will take off and go straight to the Ursus stronghold where Raytheon Industries is stationed.

And the forest guard team will not waste too much time, and will rush to clean the battlefield after handing over the supplies.

The forest guard frowned, and reconfirmed the mission briefing that he could recite backwards. Every time he made a mistake, the mission was indeed to clean the battlefield and collect intelligence.

Chapter 210 Chapter 31 Paradise Water × Hellfire√

Fox drove his own "Falcon One" to stabilize the flight posture on the snow-covered forest and sea, turned on the automatic hover switch, and then slowly raised the altitude, extending the millimeter-wave battlefield radar on the top of the rotor out of the ridgeline, Scan the Ursus stronghold six kilometers away.

As the first batch of pilots to travel through the crowds, this kind of crab-eating mission is definitely impossible to escape.

The air in the cold and windy Sami snowfields and mountains was very clear, and there was hardly any clutter that would interfere with the normal operation of the radar. Sitting at the front of the tandem cockpit as a weapon operator, Keith quickly adjusted the radar scanning range and angle.

Soon, a large number of ground targets were identified by radar and reflected on the multi-function display. Some Ursas units that had been identified and collected radar features were identified and marked, and there were also a large number of unknown ground units, which is today "Apache" armed helicopter squadron needs to hit the key target.

In fact, the millimeter-wave radar is considered to be the remaining backward technology in Karak. Although it can penetrate sand and dust to find targets, it has been replaced by the "sensors" equipped on large ships because of the short detection distance and the limitation of terrain fluctuations. .

However, considering the combat endurance and reliability issues of pure electric helicopters, Transit still did not use the sensor technology on self-developed vehicles—the technical level of "sensors" has exceeded the analysis range of the scientific research department in a short period of time. Almost out of the realm of science fiction and into the realm of fantasy.

According to the report of the radar department, the large sensing array on the Kapisi has actually been at a very low, almost standby power consumption level due to insufficient energy supply. Even so, the detection range limit is close to [-] kilometers. Targets within [-] kilometers can be said to be well known, which is the detection distance of ground-to-ground targets!

How the "sensor" can accurately perceive the target outside the line of sight under many obstacles is really a headache. If the output power of the Kapisi reactor can make the induction array run at full power, the sensing range will be reduced. To what extent will it be expanded? Maybe it will be the distance that needs to be measured in astronomical units.

However, just using radar to search the battlefield is not safe. At the request of Keith, the fox can only further increase the hovering height, so that the photoelectric turret of the nose can expose the ridgeline. At this time, the fuselage of the helicopter also leaves the terrain Cover and expose most of it.

The fox watched the Ursas stronghold in the distance nervously. Although at this distance, it was difficult for the naked eye to distinguish the target, but the HMCS helmet prompt system could project the image of the photoelectric turret operated by the front cabin wire in front of him.

It’s just that Fox’s attention is different from that of Keith, who is hurrying to identify and mark targets. As a pilot, he is more concerned about whether the enemy has deployed a field air defense system. Although the warning systems and sensors all over the fuselage have no response, But it doesn't mean that foxes can sit on the plane and sit back and relax.

Any wind or plume from a missile launch would have him reacting, hiding the plane behind ridgelines and forests.

It is not impossible for Raytheon Industries to produce infantry fighting vehicles, and it is not impossible to produce anti-aircraft weapons. In other words, as the top arms dealer in the world of Terra, it is strange that there is no technical reserve of anti-aircraft weapons. Although the number of aircraft is scarce in Terra, it is not without , not to mention the drones flying all over the sky.

Even the Ursus army is equipped with a considerable number of military drones. Although they are armed, most of the drones have average performance, slow flight speed, and short remote control distance. They may still be useful against bows and arrows or warlocks. The light weapons produced by Karak Heavy Industries are more worrying about the battlefield survivability.

Therefore, after losing a considerable amount, the Ursas military suspended the use of drones. The price of such small things that use a large number of source stone electronic components such as synthetic jade is definitely not cheap.

It's just that so far, the aircraft and weapons deployed by the traversing crowd are too advanced for the world of Terra, so that most of the air defense means are like toys to the traversing crowd, all kinds of beyond-visual-range, off-zone precision-guided munitions Let's kill.

Until the directed energy or laser point defense system equipped with the mobile fortress of Ursus shot down the drone approaching for reconnaissance, it reminded the crossing people that Terra did not have a high-performance air defense system.

Although judging from the current intelligence, its performance cannot be compared with Blue Star's theater air defense system with a range of hundreds of kilometers, high and low matching, layered fortifications, and a complete system. , I will always find a way when I am hurt, maybe I will meet you on the battlefield sometime.

However, in view of the technical uncertainty in the world of Terra, the rotating board of directors is initiating a discussion among all the traversing members, whether to export some air defense technology at the upcoming Londinium Defense Exhibition to shock the bumpkins of Terra.

Then pull Terra's anti-aircraft weapon technology tree, which is still in its infancy, to the route you are familiar with, and then use your rich experience in anti-radiation to minimize possible losses, lest others dig out some unknown technology from the ground to avoid it. The existing active and passive alarm and defense systems suddenly attack and cause huge losses.

However, it is unexpected and reasonable that Raytheon Industry brought Sami to the infantry fighting vehicles that passed through the crowd. If this kind of highly mobile armored vehicle does not run into the fleet, it is basically free, but with It couldn't be better to fight and mop up the guerrillas.

The mobility far exceeds that of warships and gunboats, allowing it to catch up to or even outflank guerrillas that rely on two-legged maneuvers, and the armor and weapon loads that are more reliable than ordinary vehicles allow it to effectively attack guerrillas, even if they are ambushed. Retreat calmly.

As for why the design is so close to Blue Star's wheeled armored vehicle, it is not difficult to guess.Items designed by humanoid creatures under similar or identical physical conditions will inevitably converge, after all, ergonomics and physics are there.

As long as the technical level can be reached, it is not surprising that there will be a wheeled chariot that is exactly the same as Stryker.

But the problem is that according to the conjectures of the crossing people, the time for the appearance of wheeled infantry fighting vehicles on Terra may need to be delayed for a while, because the combat environment of Terra is still slightly different from that of Blue Star, and the large-scale land fleet can be said to be directly Killed the emergence of conventional armored forces.

Maneuverability, firepower, and armor, the Land Fleet perfectly covers the three elements of an armored force. If it is not facing the new era of security warfare that has never been seen before, Ursas's fleet is enough to push Sami three times, and it is useless at all. infantry fighting vehicle.

Powerful warships and ordinary four-wheeled off-road vehicles and light armored vehicles are enough to deal with most situations, until the patrolling convoy encounters flying RPGs and unpredictable roadside bombs.

Common anti-ambush vehicles and light armored vehicles are simply unable to resist the armor-piercing warhead of RPG. As long as half of the people in a vehicle are hit, it is luck. In most cases, it will directly explode into a ball of fire.

The IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices) buried on the roadside are even more violent. The charges are used to blow up the entire convoy in one shot. If you are lucky, you will have a chance to leave a whole body. If you are not lucky, even people and cars will become The scattered garbage is evenly distributed within a radius of several kilometers.

Mobile vehicles with a certain amount of armor have naturally become a demand on the battlefield. Where there is demand, there is a market. If there is a market, there will be no shortage of sellers. It can only be said that Raytheon Industries is still very powerful as a top arms supplier, and it is actually able to sell in such a short period of time. Take out a targeted weapon.

In addition, Terra's high-horsepower engine technology is still in the bottleneck period, and Raytheon Industry's ability to launch a wheeled armored vehicle in a short period of time is indeed beyond everyone's expectations.The high-horsepower engine here does not refer to the giant origin stone furnace that can drive cities and battleships, but the internal combustion engine technology that uses liquid origin stone fuel.

The miniaturization of the Origin Stone Furnace has always been a technical problem that is difficult to overcome. Therefore, many Terra organizations have turned their attention to the internal combustion engine to solve the power problem of small vehicles, but the development time is still short. Although the technology is updated quickly, they want to It still takes time and technology accumulation to develop high-horsepower engines for armored vehicles or tanks.

This time Raytheon Industries' infantry fighting vehicle appeared on the Sami battlefield, and it has officially traveled through the best samples of the cutting-edge level of Terra's high-horsepower engines. In addition to killing and warning Raytheon Industries, a team of forest guards was also dispatched to investigate after the air strike to collect relevant information.

From the pictures taken by high-altitude drones and multiple sources of information, the armored convoy sent by Raytheon Industries to Sami is mainly a 6X6 chassis, equipped with small-caliber low-pressure artillery, and the armor level is average. Even the front can not completely block the Sami guerrillas. RPG.

However, an enhanced version that added grid armor and increased survivability by destroying rocket fuzes or detonating rockets in advance appeared so soon, which also demonstrated the technical strength of Raytheon Industries and also showed that some rockets or unexploded bombs were destroyed Ursus collected and submitted to Raytheon Industries.

But these problems are trivial. Simple technology leaks basically have no effect on the people who travel through. submerged.

Especially in terms of cost, I am afraid that only Raytheon Industry itself knows how expensive the Originium Industrial System is.

People who travel through are more concerned about the level of Raytheon Industries' high-horsepower engine technology. The higher the level of engine technology, it means that Raytheon Industries can pack thicker armor, stronger weapons, and more advanced equipment into ground armor units. It is not uncommon to get a main battle tank after some time.

Although these things are equal to all beings in the face of high-performance anti-tank missiles, it also means that the cost of Karak Heavy Industries supporting guerrilla activities in Sami has increased.

Now the aid to the Sami guerrillas is considered an investment, almost half sold and half given away. You just hope that the Sami revolution will succeed and you will give yourself a blood transfusion. You, Raytheon Industry, came to give eye drops to the cross-travelers, and you will definitely suffer.

With the assistance of the millimeter-wave radar and the photoelectric turret, Jisi quickly calibrated dozens of key targets and shared them with friendly aircraft through the airborne data link.There were two armed helicopters going out for reconnaissance. In addition to the "Falcon 1" of Fox and Keith, there were also wingmen equipped with millimeter-wave radar.

The two armed helicopters will provide radar guidance for the four armed helicopters loaded with Karak Hellfire missiles that are outside the line of sight through millimeter wave radar and airborne data link.

Because it is a pure electric helicopter, in order to ensure combat endurance, the radar power and on-board computer are limited. The millimeter-wave radar on the head of the fox has a detection range of about 36 kilometers, and can simultaneously identify and track 8 air or ground targets, and guide them at the same time. [-] missiles attack different targets.

However, the ability to shoot from A to guide to B and after shooting, which is necessary in the eyes of the time traveler, is still there.

In order to ensure the suddenness and destructiveness of the first wave of strikes, Fox decided to take the risk and bring his wingman close to the Ursus stronghold to provide radar guidance for the missile carrier aircraft outside the visual range.

It proved in real time that the fox's worries about the Ursus or Raytheon industrial air defense systems are not necessary for the time being. So far, there have been no attacks or warnings in the stronghold.

Although the pure electric helicopter is not without noise, it is much quieter than the whistling turboshaft engine all the time. No one in the Ursas stronghold a few kilometers away heard any suspicious sounds, and no one noticed that even the optical equipment was difficult. Spot the circular radar antenna that peeks out over the ridgeline.

"This is Falcon one-one. Attention all aircraft, the target has been sent to the data link and allocated. Falcon one-two and I will provide radar guidance. Please prepare for missile launch."

Hearing the call from the fox, the four Apache helicopters lined up twelve kilometers away, hovering in a higher airspace and waiting for an attack order, disengaged the main weapon safety connection, switched on the missile power supply, and began to charge the missile battery. Seconds later, the missile seeker will activate and prepare for launch.

In the distant Ursus base store, both Ursus soldiers and Thor industrial mercenaries just gathered around the fire or hid in the barracks, trying to survive this ordinary and cold day, and the god of death who was about to fall from the sky Unaware.

Compared with the Bluestar Hellfire, the Karak Hellfire has undoubtedly been strengthened. Both the range and the weight of the warhead have been greatly improved. Although the recommended distance in the manual is [-] kilometers, the fox, just to be on the safe side, Still brought the fleet to a position about twelve kilometers away from the target.

In this way, even if the data link is accidentally interrupted, the missile carrier can also use its own photoelectric system or millimeter-wave radar to re-indicate the target for the missile.

After reconfirming with Keith in the front seat that the data link is unblocked, the fox looked at all the missile carriers showing preparations on the data link, and gave the order to fire.

Four missile carriers in the distance pressed the launch button almost at the same time, and the Hellfire missiles on the pylons ignited at intervals of two seconds each, and left the launcher with a tail flame several meters long. Throw ballistic straight into the sky.

Chapter 211 Chapter 32 Assault on the Horizon

The high-speed rotation of the main rotor blades stirs the air and makes a low and powerful vibrating sound rhythmically, like a drum that urges an attack.

With the assistance of the autopilot system, the fox and his wingman hovered stably at the height of the treetops, protruding the millimeter-wave radar on the top of the rotor out of the ridgeline, and launched the first batch of [-] radars for its armed helicopter more than ten kilometers away. The Hellfire missile provides guidance until the infrared/millimeter wave homing seeker on the head of the missile turns on and acquires the target.

In the vault mode, these missiles will fly along the high-throwing trajectory, so it will take a little longer on the road, but the time of more than 20 seconds is not very difficult, and the enemies in the distance are completely unaware that they are about to attack. will be devastated.

Soon, the countdown to the start-up of the missile seeker returned to zero, and the airborne millimeter-wave radar was no longer needed to continue to guide, lock the target and dive down from a high altitude at a large angle.

Although there were less than ten seconds left before the first batch of missiles hit, Kisi, who was manipulating the radar, did not delay. He quickly coordinated with the wingman's weapon operator and assigned the next batch of targets. Fly away from the shelf.

After handing over the supplies, the forest guard team took a shortcut and rushed to this stronghold under the leadership of the guerrilla guide. The departure time was much earlier than that of the armed helicopter squadron. Coupled with the familiar environment, the moving speed was very fast, and the fox did not have much time to waste. , according to the plan, it is necessary to complete the suppression and clearing of the enemy stronghold before the forest guard team enters the battlefield.

After more than 20 seconds of flight, the first batch of missiles finally slammed into the target with the slightest sound of piercing the air. The precisely adjusted trajectory almost allowed sixteen missiles to hit at the same time. Sass stronghold covered.

Soaring flames, twisted and broken metal fragments, and billowing smoke rose into the sky. The sudden attack from the sky caused amazing damage to the entire Ursus stronghold. Panicked Ursus soldiers and Thor industrial mercenaries poured out of the barracks , running around the camp.

The priority targets of armed helicopter strikes are naturally all kinds of vehicles and vehicles parked in the stronghold, and Raytheon Industries' wheeled infantry fighting vehicles are the first priority for strikes.

Ursus soldiers and mercenaries running around in panic are not worth wasting a limited number of missiles. After the missile carrier plane clears the sixteen Hellfire missiles on the pylon, it will naturally clean up these bugs with machine guns .

Under the strike of the first batch of missiles, sixteen brand-new Raytheon industrial infantry fighting vehicles instantly turned into burning fireballs and twisted metal wreckage. The strengthened missile warheads were devastating to these wheeled infantry fighting vehicles sexual.

Some Raytheon Industrial mercenaries who reacted quickly rushed to the remaining armored vehicles under the officers' loud curses. In the chaos, some people discovered that the enemy's attack target was the Raytheon Industrial convoy that had just arrived here not long ago.

But there was no extra time for them to restore order in just a dozen seconds. Immediately after the second batch of missiles landed, violent explosions and flashes intensified the chaos in the stronghold, even though the officers had pulled out their tweeters to try to direct the bombing of the camp. The troops carried out damage control operations, but it was also useless.

Looking around, the stronghold is full of panicked crowds and some vehicles that were lucky enough to launch and rush left and right. The original wide passageway was crowded by all kinds of moving and not only moving vehicles and vehicles. The stronghold is full of skyrockets. Fire and smoke.

Perhaps for optoelectronic equipment, the dense smoke and burning flames covering the sky will make it difficult to aim and observe, but these dry air pollution can easily penetrate the millimeter-wave radar, so it does not affect Jisi to continue to guide the first Three, the fourth batch of missiles.

After two waves of 32 Hellfire strikes, the entire Ursas camp was almost turned into a sea of ​​flames, and the mobile vehicles were completely lost. The explosion shock wave and scattered fragments also caused considerable damage to the exposed soft targets, but the offensive It didn't stop, and the third batch of missiles rushed over without mercy.

It's just that the target this time is the various warehouses and barracks in the stronghold.

The enhanced version of the Hellfire missile weighing nearly 70 kilograms easily penetrated the roofs of simple barracks and warehouses, and then exploded inside the buildings. The huge fireballs inflated those simple buildings like balloons, and fragments of various building materials were blown away. Throw high into the air.

One of the warehouses storing dangerous goods was hit by a missile and detonated. Judging from the intensity of the explosion, it should be military supplies filled with strong fuel or explosives. The fire-fighting facilities of the simple warehouse were in chaos and lacked The damage control personnel did not play a role in extinguishing the fire or suppressing the explosion at all, and a huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky, like a small natural disaster.

By the time the four armed helicopters loaded with missiles had launched all 64 Hellfire missiles, the entire stronghold had completely lost its ability to resist and organize. Burning fires, twisted wreckage, and broken human tissues were everywhere.

Under the command and coordination of the fox, the four armed helicopters began to slowly approach the Ursus stronghold, and the gunner in the front seat manipulated the omnidirectional movable machine gun equipped under the nose to aim vigilantly in the direction of the Ursas stronghold.

When it entered the range of the machine gun, the [-]mm caliber single-barreled machine gun began to spray several meters long flames, and four empty long whips composed of tracer bullets swept towards the Ursus stronghold, and the sudden intensive explosion sounded the entire Ursus. The SARS stronghold was shrouded, and from the sky, it was all the flashes of the explosion and the dust stirred up.

Hearing the dense explosions not far away, the forest guards walking through the forest guessed that the armed helicopter squadron was clearing out the Ursus stronghold, and began to contact the headquarters.

Cooperating with the new equipment of the friendly army, the forest guards have of course been familiar with the performance. It is very clear that even if viewed from the sky with high-definition thermal imaging, he and his team are just humanoid heat sources, and it is not easy to distinguish the enemy from the enemy.

Although the Thermal Ranger squads all carry IR infrared detectors, this passive gadget is not [-]% reliable in daylight.

After getting the fox's response, the forest guard was relieved and continued to rush towards the target location.

At this time, the hunting of the Apache squadron was coming to an end, and the four helicopters that had exhausted their mounted missiles and shells turned their noses and began to return.

In order to cope with various situations that may arise, Fox and his wingmen did not fill the pylons with missiles, but chose to use two 32-tube 57mm rocket launchers for point-to-face suppression.

Although the firepower of the four armed helicopters is more powerful than they imagined, Fox and Keith are not going to bring these loads back to the frontline base hundreds of kilometers away.

Section 212 Chapter 33 Prototype Scanning

Due to its light weight, 57mm aviation rockets are easily affected by the airflow stirred by the main rotor, resulting in poor accuracy. However, the sufficient number of mounts can fully make up for the lack of accuracy, and the effect is not bad in cleaning exposed soft targets.

Because it can hover and attack, the accuracy of using this unguided weapon on a stable armed helicopter platform is a bit higher than that of a high-speed fixed-wing attack aircraft, so the two-aircraft formation formed by the fox and the wingman gradually slowed down after entering the range.

With the end of the first wave of attack, many Ursus soldiers and Raytheon industrial mercenaries who survived hiding behind the bunkers began to flee. These figures staggering and running in the snow were the targets of the rocket bombs.

The fox did not rush to give the firing command, but continued to approach, and tried to stabilize the flight attitude to eliminate the sideslip. The fire control computer projected the circular shooting indicator ring marking the landing point of the rocket on the fox's head in the continuous calculation mode of the impact point. on the monitor.

After communicating and confirming with the wingman, the two helicopters poured out the rockets on the short wing hanging points on both sides of the fuselage at the same time, covering the entire target area in a short while.

The forest guard watched the long and intensive firepower show end two kilometers away with binoculars. The coniferous forest was flattened by the explosion. She could even see Ursus soldiers trying to attack with crossbow arrows or spells at the last moment. Return fire, but these struggles mean nothing to the two heavy gunships.

After using rockets to complete the last round of suppression, the two Wuzhi disbanded their formation and began to hover over the stronghold. They began to use highly integrated photoelectric turntables and mobile cannons to wipe out the stubborn enemy. The enemy is just dispersed with machine gun bursts.

As for whether you can survive on the tundra until rescue arrives, it depends on your own luck.

Looking at the helicopter roaring overhead from time to time, the ranger led the team and began to approach the stronghold that was almost completely razed to the ground. The guerrilla guide accompanying the team was already frightened by the fireworks display of Karak Heavy Industries. The soldier yelled several times before he moved forward with difficulty.

There are choking particles floating in the air, and there is no need to remind them. The members of the ranger team consciously put on isolation masks. Although they are engaged in high-risk occupations, basic protection is still required.

After putting on the mask, the forest guards can still feel the pressure brought by the scorching air and burning wreckage. This Ursas stronghold has almost completely turned into a burning hell, full of burning flames and rushing Pillars of smoke from the sky.

The ground was covered with hot and twisted fragments and charred limbs and broken arms, but the forest guard just sighed slightly in his heart, and did not waver in the slightest. Years of combat experience had already trained her to be a hard-hearted warrior. Kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself.

But the Wuzhi Squadron fought well, and it was the turn of the forest guards to start to have a headache. Most of the targets were destroyed too thoroughly, and none of the exposed wheeled infantry fighting vehicles survived.The task of the forest ranger team is to collect intelligence and samples, which have been burned to the ground, what a fart to collect.

"Zizi~Boss! There's something over here!"

The explosion of the dangerous goods warehouse created a small-scale complex Originium environment, and the short-wave radios used by the forest guard team that went deep into the stronghold began to be interfered, but the impact was not as great as expected.

At the door of a half-collapsed warehouse, the forest guard saw a team member waving from a distance.The warehouse in the Ursus stronghold was not a solid bunker like Blue Star's that could withstand aerial bombs. Even the enhanced Hellfire with a warhead of only 20 kilograms almost blew up the entire warehouse to the ground.

A huge six-wheeled vehicle seemed to be covered under the smoked black tarpaulin in one corner of the warehouse.

"The ranger team called the front line command center, and got the things. Ready to start scanning."

Looking at the tarpaulin that had been torn apart in front of him, the forest guard breathed a sigh of relief, and went around the car to check that the condition was still intact, but the side panels were densely dented by the debris from the explosion, and there were still holes in the corners. Grid armor that was not installed was piled up.

"The command center received it, please prepare for laser communication."

At this time, it was the turn of the specially brought battlefield information coordinator to come out to work, because the fire in the stronghold had not been extinguished, so he could only run to a distant open space to set up the laser antenna, which was delayed for nearly half an hour. .

The principle of the portable scanner is similar to the scanner on the scientific research base walker, but limited by power and heat dissipation efficiency, the scanning range is a bit poor.

Soon, the first batch of scanned data was uploaded to the Kapisi supercomputing center through a large-bandwidth laser data link.

"Well, I see." Hideyoshi is waiting for the results of the supercomputing center, but judging from the existing structure, the design idea is very close to Blue Star's infantry fighting vehicle, especially the front engine to absorb fragments and metal jets Improve member survivability.

There is no difference from the guesses of the public. The engine horsepower is indeed low compared to the weight of the vehicle. The power-to-weight ratio (the ratio of the power that the power equipment can generate to the mass of the equipment) of this 6*6 small and medium-sized armored vehicle will not exceed 16.

Equipped with a small-caliber cannon powered by compressed air, its range and muzzle velocity can only be described as weak compared to artillery with chemical propellants of the same caliber, but it is used to suppress guerrillas with only backward equipment or More than enough for an average Terran army.

It's just that the armor is a bit poor, the frontal inclination is big enough and the power cabin is protected, the protection ability is not bad, but it can still be penetrated by any kind of anti-equipment that exists in the traversing crowd, it's just a matter of aftereffect.The side is more miserable, and can be worn casually by .50.

Considering the limitation of engine power and the combat needs in Terra, the performance of this armored vehicle of Raytheon Industries is already impressive enough.
