Chapter 125 Deep Blue 16, Going to Deep Blue
One day later, as all EA-6Bs returned to the base with difficulty but safely, various media began to report on this incident.
"The EA-6B landed at a certain airport and was shot down? The official refuted the rumor: the mechanical failure has been perfectly resolved."
"Rare! Four EA-6Bs in the same frame are enough to paralyze the communications of a small country!"
"Fortunately, it's an exercise. If there were actual combat, the air force might have been completely wiped out!"
"The gap is too big, and the exercise may become a laughing stock."
"The Nimitz-class aircraft carrier formation has returned early or may have other missions."
…
With deliberate fueling, the essence of the matter has gradually been blurred.
Everyone believed that this was just a simple emergency landing caused by a malfunction.
Some people even said that the other party took the initiative to land, and we did not notice them until the plane landed.
However, no matter whether they are people holding their own, ordinary people, or dog slaves, no one has thought of, or dare not think of, that possibility:
What if we capture these planes?
Maybe this idea will flash in someone's mind, but it will be quickly dismissed.
Because it is so bizarre and incredible.
Even though the official soon announced the record of the J-22 exercise with a loss ratio of 0-9 and a complete victory, it did not make everyone think in a more exaggerated direction.
Most people are just happy:
We have fourth-generation aircraft after all. Maybe, the next time these electronic jammers fly over, we can discover them in advance, right?
It would be great if we could get better at driving them away.
But what they didn't know was that this rabbit was far more sinister than they imagined.
And their black hearts have stirred up the storm on the other side of the sea far away.
For the first time in several years, a direct conflict broke out between the May Meeting and the Corner Tower at the meeting. The two sides blamed each other and even started fighting.
This scene was reported everywhere by the media, and for a while, the whole world fell into confusion:
What's going on? Didn't they just win a hand here in China?
How come you turned around and started fighting with your own people?
In addition, you have just completed the maritime exercise and flexed your muscles. Why did the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier formation leave quietly?
What are you hiding from?
Vaguely, some people realized that things seemed not that simple.
But no one can tell clearly what the situation is...
…
On the other side, after sending away four EA-6Bs, the Chinese exercise ended perfectly.
Chen Nian was sitting in the office with everyone on the directing team, reviewing the entire process of the exercise.
Although the development of things went slightly beyond the planned plan, judging from the final result, the benefits achieved exceeded expectations.
Not only did they give the other side a big mouth, scaring them into voluntarily withdrawing from sensitive sea areas, they even borrowed a large number of electronic interference-related technologies from them - including a large number of photos, drawings, data, and an unknown
The obedient researcher hid and stole several core components.
One or two parts were stolen from each of the 4 aircraft, and the "inspection and maintenance" time was short, so they were not discovered on the spot.
By the time he took out these things, EA-6B had already flown back to Kadena.
Go talk to people, they think you have ulterior motives;
Don't tell me...
It doesn't seem to matter if you don't say it.
So, I can only accept it with a smile.
According to Chen Nian's suggestion, the pile of components was quickly sent to the 14th Institute. The researcher who stole the parts was fined with a six-month allowance and assigned to the 14th Institute as a miscellaneous worker.
Business trip expenses will be calculated separately, and one code will be counted as one code.
Everyone is very satisfied with this treatment.
Including Chen Nian.
With the experience of PL-15, he had tried to analyze this batch of electronic parts again before, and it still only took 0.1 source points to fully understand the principles of the entire electronic jamming pod.
.
Later, he exported all these principles to 14 institutes.
Actually speaking, these things are really not too difficult.
Mainly lies in the trial and error cost of circuit design and material design.
Therefore, it is estimated that 14 institutes can fully adopt the technology in less than a week.
It is only a matter of time before the Chinese people create their own jamming pod.
Chen Nian felt that the old beauty opposite should have been furious.
After all, the most powerful EA-18 in later generations was actually modified based on the accumulated technology of EA-6B.
Now, the EA-18 has not come out yet, and the J-10D is about to come out.
In the future, it will be absolutely impossible to use the shabby EP-3E to compete with China.
Do you want to come?
OK.
The fast, fierce and loud J-10D followed you the whole way.
Your radar fails, your communications lose contact, and you can only helplessly tremble in the air, collapse, jump up and down, and finally be forced to fall to the ground.
Buying one is getting one for free. Although the technology of EP-3E is no longer valuable, you can still sell it for a lot of scrap metal.
However, this exercise also exposed a major problem:
Our data link system is still too weak.
Our early warning aircraft are really too weak.
Under normal circumstances, when encountering strong electromagnetic interference, a qualified early warning aircraft must maintain at least the most basic communication functions and ensure that in HOJ mode, the radar can still detect close targets and send them to combat targets through the data link system.
Units transmit information to ensure minimum combat capabilities.
However, this time we obviously failed to do that.
Looking at the exercise report in front of him, Chen Nian scratched his head, suddenly turned around and looked at Lin Changhai beside him, and asked:
"Tell me, should we build an early warning aircraft first or Deep Blue 16?"
Hearing his question, Lin Changhai was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to answer.
What the hell?
Do you still have a choice?
What you are saying is like going to the vegetable market to buy vegetables. Can you still pick and choose?
But the early warning aircraft was really attractive to Lin Changhai.
As a standard general with an Air Force background, he knows better than anyone else the role that early warning aircraft plays in modern air combat.
Although the radar of the J-22 is very strong, the combat methods and tactics are completely different between those with and without early warning aircraft.
Take this time as an example, if the Air Police-2000 had not been disabled, the J-22 would not have had to run around like herding sheep. It would have been enough to scare those EA-6Bs out of their wits by flying straight through.
Already.
However, this is only his position as an Air Force officer.
From an overall perspective, he also deeply realized how important an aircraft carrier is to us.
If an aircraft carrier is present, how can the electronic jammer from the opposite side fly over so brazenly?
Within 400 nautical miles, it is a restricted area!
Thinking of this, he said solemnly:
"Chen Nian, although I really want to tell you to build an early warning aircraft first, but on such a major matter, I must be objective."
"In terms of technology accumulation, our digital array radar has been launched and has reached a fairly advanced level."
"Relying on this radar, our early warning aircraft already has a good foundation, which is enough to deal with low-intensity conflicts in the next few years."
"So, from a cost-effective perspective, I suggest you focus on the Deep Blue No. 16 project first."
"Build our aircraft carrier as soon as possible so that our aircraft can have a place to land!"
Hearing his words, Chen Nian nodded solemnly.
Yes, no matter how powerful the air force is, it does not have unlimited range.
An aircraft carrier is a necessary step for us to move towards the deep blue.
And the faster you take this step, the better
Chapter completed!
