At the airport located in the D theater of the red side, a large number of aircraft are taking off at the fastest speed, with only one direction - the strait.
250 kilometers away, the personnel on duty in the cabin of the KJ-500 that had taken off were trying to increase the radar power to search for traces of LRSAM anti-ship missiles flying towards the strait, and even ventured 100 kilometers to reach the sky near the strait.
This is actually a very risky behavior, because if the blue team also sends stealth fighters, it is possible to enter the east of the green zone and use ultra-long-range air-to-air missiles to attack the KJ-500.
However, even though they had ventured out, there was still nothing on the radar screen on the plane.
It stands to reason that the KJ-500's performance will not prevent it from detecting LRSAM missiles entering the green zone.
There must be something wrong!
The crew chief realized the seriousness of the matter.
There is only one possibility at this time.
That means you have been disturbed too!
If I say that I have been disturbed, then the matter seems to be more serious...
The jamming distance of the blue side's electronic warfare aircraft is very clear to the red side. Whether it is the most advanced EA-18G Growler or EC-130H, it is impossible to escape the reconnaissance and monitoring of the KJ-500.
What's more, the red side has always followed the principle that when an early warning aircraft takes off, it must be followed by an electronic warfare aircraft. There is also a J16D escorting near the KJ-500.
This is also the reason why the KJ-500 dares to go 100 kilometers forward. Speaking of the J16D, its electric warfare capabilities are also very powerful. It has competed with the blue side on the ocean many times and it has not fallen behind.
If the blue side has electronic warfare aircraft entering the skies near the strait to interfere and affect the detection of LRSAM missiles, then the red side is bound to discover it as well.
It has not been discovered now. It is just a prediction based on the experience of the crew leader of the KJ-500 early warning aircraft.
It's not clear what interference method Blue used this time.
For a moment, the AWACS crew leader even thought about the impact caused by the blue team's electronic warfare reconnaissance ship in the nearby waters.
Even after linking up with some of the existing radars in the Green Zone, they found nothing.
When the time comes, we can only send the request for assistance in reconnaissance to the 002 aircraft carrier formation to request assistance in reconnaissance.
Due to the airborne early warning and support, the ship-based early warning helicopters on each ship did not take off in order to prevent the ships from being shot down by the blue team's hidden anti-aircraft missiles. Seeing that the KJ-500 was also disturbed by the blue team, it was unable to accurately detect the blue team's stealth missiles.
Finally, the commander of the 002 aircraft carrier group thought briefly and deeply, and finally decided to give it a try.
Five minutes later, the commander of the 002 formation issued an order to each ship. The ship-borne early warning aircraft of each ship immediately moved forward to conduct reconnaissance targets to assist the KJ-500 and the air defense radar networks of all parties in detecting all incoming LRSAM missiles.
For the ship-borne helicopter early warning aircraft, it is very dangerous to go out at this time.
After all, if you are protecting a formation, two helicopter AWACS aircraft can do it perfectly without dispatching all helicopter AWACS aircraft.
The helicopter early warning aircraft itself has technical limitations, and there are certain problems in its detection range and its own endurance.
If all members go out in front, not only will it be difficult to ensure their own safety, but it will also cause unnecessary interference with the original duty rotation system and disrupt the entire formation's duty warning plan.
But I don't care about that much now.
The 002 aircraft carrier formation is currently the only force east of the Green Zone that can provide intelligence support for the landing transport group in the strait. It is simply the top priority to fully embrace the red landing group in the strait.
After that, after that...
Keeping the green hills, you don’t have to worry about having no firewood.
It's better than watching your ship being sunk.
After receiving the order, the pilots of the carrier-based aircraft quickly rushed to the helicopter, and the ground crew also quickly untied the fixing ropes that fixed the helicopter, but there was no time...
In fact, Blue Fang really spent a lot of money this time.
The red team's early warning aircraft was actually interfered with, but it was not interference from electronic reconnaissance ships, but from serious electronic warfare aircraft.
The electronic warfare aircraft dispatched this time is not the usual EA-18G Growler of the Blue Air Force, but an electronic warfare aircraft that even the Blue Air Force has just received and is still in the trial installation stage and has not been fully equipped - EC
-37B electronic warfare aircraft.
This aircraft uses the Gulfstream G550 conformal airborne early warning aircraft platform, with a fuselage length of 29.38 meters, a wingspan of 28.5 meters, and a height of 7.86 meters. It is equipped with two BR710C4-11 turbofan engines with a thrust of 7 tons each, and a maximum take-off weight of 41
tons, the flight speed is about Mach 0.8, the maximum range is about 10,139 kilometers, the maximum flight altitude is 15,544.8 meters, and it has multiple crew members including two pilots.
At the same time, the EC-37B electronic warfare aircraft has large-area antenna installation structures and fairings on both sides of the fuselage, which can accommodate a variety of advanced airborne electronic warfare devices, and the core airborne electronic warfare system "Compass Call" has developed
The electronic warfare system used by the previous EC-130H electronic warfare aircraft.
The EC-37B electronic warfare aircraft has large antenna installation structures and fairings arranged on both sides of the fuselage.
Compared with the previous EC-130H electronic warfare aircraft, the EC-37B electronic warfare aircraft not only has better flight performance, but also is equipped with more advanced electronic warfare systems. At the same time, its own electronic warfare functions are developed and developed based on "software".
set and adopts an open architecture design.
In this way, on the one hand, the EC-37B electronic warfare aircraft can have better electronic warfare capabilities than the EC-130H electronic warfare aircraft, such as: it can attack the opponent's "anti-access/area denial" system and corresponding response capabilities from a longer distance.
The equipment carries out strong electronic interference and suppression, thus further improving the EC-37B electronic warfare aircraft's own survivability in wartime.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! On the other hand, it also makes the EC-37B electronic warfare aircraft more convenient and flexible when it comes to technology upgrades in the future.
The advanced is the advanced, but this aircraft is an aircraft that just went through the actual assembly test stage in 2023. The number is not large, and its capabilities have not yet been confirmed by actual combat experience.
This time, the blue team even took out the few test equipment EC-37B, which could be said to have left no room for themselves at all.
The blue team's desperate play style made the red team unable to react.
The captain standing on the bridge of the destroyer No. 132 was also sweating profusely.
He figured out what he was going to face. Lan Fang was not a paper tiger, this Lao He really knew how to eat people.
Their missiles come so secretly, and some are even close enough to be visible to the naked eye, which means that if one of them cannot be stopped, it will be a big deal.
The only thing that makes him feel at ease is that the 132 ship is now fighting against the target flying towards him while also doing its best to fight against other missiles. But what is terrible is that the 132 ship has already conducted a sea confrontation before and intercepted a batch of blue missiles.
The attack had already consumed a large amount of anti-aircraft missiles, and a lot of the ammunition transported by the landing group to the Green Zone this time was prepared for them.
If there is no war, the No. 132 ship will dock at the green zone dock tomorrow morning, where the technical personnel sent by the red team to the green team will replenish it with supplies. Unexpectedly, before there is time to replenish the ship, the blue team launches a fierce motive again, disrupting the chaos.
132 destroyer’s docking replenishment plan.
The problem is that the most worrying thing is that among the two destroyers in the strait responsible for sea and air protection, Ship 132 does have the largest ammunition inventory.
