One second.
Two seconds.
In the third second, the Eagle-8 anti-ship missile hit the water line of the target ship. The semi-armor-piercing explosive warhead instantly tore through the ship's side.
Hit!
It was a precise hit!
Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan, who was watching, could not help but clench his fists. His eyes shone brightly. For missiles, accuracy was the most important thing.
Boom!
In the next moment, a deafening explosion soared into the sky, echoing between the sea and the sky. A dazzling flame surged up, and countless fragments of the ship flew in all directions like raindrops.
The 165-kilogram warhead exploded inside the target ship. The huge explosion swept out like a storm, and the dummies that were erected there were completely torn into pieces in an instant.
The raging fire soon burned, and thick smoke began to spread into the air.
Through the binoculars, Admiral Gao Shihuai and the others could clearly see the terrifying cracks on the hull. The imitation cannons on the deck were basically destroyed.
It was obvious.
The three-thousand-ton target ship was finished. Even if it didn't sink, it had lost its combat ability.
This was also the reason why many shells and missiles had an armor-piercing ability. If they exploded internally, the damage would undoubtedly be greater.
The more advanced a warship was, the more it was like this. There were many electronic devices inside. Once it was destroyed, even damage control could not save it in a short time. Its combat effectiveness would plummet.
"Good, that's great."
General Gao Shihuai, who was standing on the deck, put down the binoculars in his hand. As he spoke, he clapped his hands, his eyes filled with excitement. His expression changed.
As the boss, he should be calm.
But at this moment, he really could not control his emotions.
Why?
This was because this generation of soldiers had experienced the most difficult times of the Fire Country, carrying rifles and eating millet to defeat all kinds of strong enemies. However, they were also suffering from a serious fear of insufficient firepower, and their desire for advanced weapons and equipment was stronger than anyone else.
Now that a brand new type of powerful guided missile had appeared out of nowhere, it would definitely greatly increase the combat effectiveness of the Fire Country's troops. How could General Gao Shihuai not be agitated by this? Was it difficult to control?
"It's indeed stronger than the upstream-1 anti-ship missile.”
"It is said that it can also be improved into air-launched and submarine-launched models. In other words, both fighter jets and submarines can be used.”
"Sure,"
Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan and the others applauded and discussed with smiles on their faces.
"Dock the shore and let that kid come to see me.”General Gao Shihuai said.
"Yes."
The communications staff officer behind him turned around to make contact.
Soon, Yang Dingtian received the news and immediately ordered the change of course. The Type 037IG missile boat returned to the port to dock.
After letting Lin Sanbao and the others familiarize themselves with the equipment on the boat, he went ashore and waited.
Twenty minutes later.
General Gao Shihuai, Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan and others went ashore.
"Boss, Commander."
Yang Dingtian raised his hand and saluted.
Swoosh.
He raised his hand and saluted back. Then, General Gao Shihuai said," How is the anti-interference ability of the missile?”
Missiles were not invincible.
As far as he knew, the Pi-15 missiles launched by the mummies last year were subjected to electronic interference by the army, causing the single-pulse active guidance radar of the missiles to be deceived by the angle. As many as 54 missiles did not hit the target.
"Mister, although it still uses monopulse guidance, it has stronger anti-interference ability than the upstream-1 anti-ship missile. If the foreign ships use monopulse jammers, it won't have much impact on the Yingji-8 anti-ship missile.”Yang Dingtian replied.
"That's good."
General Gao Shi Huai's eyes were also filled with joy.
The upstream-1 anti-ship missile was a replica, and the technology used was not advanced. It was very vulnerable to electronic interference, which was their biggest worry. Now, this problem was temporarily solved.
"Missile boat, how do you plan to use it?”General Gao Shihuai asked again.
This was a test.
The surrounding officers looked at Yang Dingtian with some envy. The Fire Country had millions of soldiers and those who could be personally tested by the boss could be counted on one hand.
What did this mean?
It meant that he was valued by the boss and had a bright future.
"Boss, the missile boat alone is not very effective, especially when facing a naval power. Their stronger air power will bring a fatal threat.”
Yang Dingtian opened his mouth and said in a deep voice," I suggest that we mix the missile boats with the large destroyer and frigate. A large warship with better equipment will serve as the flagship to provide long-range warning and target indication for the fleet and command coordinated operations.”
Missile ships were still too small, and the equipment that could be installed was too little. However, large destroyer and frigate were different. They had more equipment.
For example, the Type 515 Ultra High Wavelinth-band radar equipped on the Type 051 guided missile destroyer that the Navy had just built had a high-altitude detection range of 380 kilometers. It could extend along the sea surface to a distance beyond the water antenna.
"Continue." The admiration in General Gao Shihuai's eyes was even stronger than before.
"Yes."
After answering, Yang Dingtian continued," At present, our strategy is still to defend the coastal waters. Then, with the support of the shore-based fighter jets, such a mixed battle group can deal a fatal blow to the invading enemy fleet.”
"For example, if the mixed combat group is equipped with 8 missile boats and a destroyer, then a single shot will be 38 anti-ship missiles.”(32 6)
"According to the current information, the US single-carrier battle group can intercept about 30 targets at a time. In the case of multiple aircraft carriers, it can intercept about 100 targets at the same time.”
"In coastal defense operations, we only need to deploy about five of these missile boat battle groups and launch attacks from all directions, which is enough to pose a fatal threat to the foreign aircraft carrier.”
"Of course, the premise of all this is that the shore-based fighter jets can hold back the enemy's carrier-based fighter jets and helicopters. But I believe that with the number of shore-based fighter jets we currently have, it won't be too much of a problem to hold them off for a while.”
This?
Many of the generals and officers around were shocked. They did not expect that a captain like Yang Dingtian could analyze the strategy so thoroughly and clearly.
"Very good."
General Gao Shihuai laughed.
What Yang Dingtian said was exactly what they were thinking.
The navy was still very weak, so they could only carry out coastal defense, using a large number of missile boats to sneak in under the cover of shore-based fighter jets. Invading the enemy fleet was the overall strategic plan.
"Kid, you are a natural talent. Work hard and you will be a fleet commander in the future.”General Gao Shihuai patted Yang Dingtian's shoulder.
A natural talent?
The future fleet commander?
Many people present were shocked again. They did not expect General Gao Shihuai to have such a high evaluation of Yang Dingtian.
Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan was grinning from ear to ear. Yang Dingtian's performance had also exceeded his expectations. It had greatly enhanced his reputation as a commander.
Swoosh.
At this moment, General Gao Shihuai turned around." Bring me the reward."”
"Yes."
The secretary behind him immediately came over with a plate covered in red silk cloth.
What reward?
Is it a medal?
Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan and the others looked over curiously.
