Chapter 1617 Blue Lightning!
Inside the command hall of the UK Security Special Guidance Headquarters.
One by one, the personnel, some wearing brown military uniforms or white shirts, were tapping the dashboard in front of them with serious expressions, and from time to time, they loudly reported the known situations.
The atmosphere on the scene was very tense, serious and depressing.
Behind them in the audience.
Senior generals led by Perwood sat around a large round table, watching the satellite map on the big screen.
"The Atlantic Fleet has sailed out of the Firth of Clyde and is expected to arrive in Belfast waters in three hours!"
General Pewood and others did not respond to this.
Northern Ireland and Scotland are separated by the North Sea Channel.
The narrowest part is only 21 kilometers wide, and the widest part is less than 200 kilometers in diameter.
After conversion, it is less than a hundred nautical miles.
For the British Royal Atlantic Fleet, which is stationed in the port of Faslane in Scotland and has a cruising speed of eighteen knots, it only takes ten hours at most to reach the Northern Ireland coastline.
Of course, such a close distance also presents a great advantage to the mysterious enemy occupying Belfast.
So General Perwood and his men were wary that the other side might intercept their fleet at sea.
Fortunately, the Atlantic Fleet is quite powerful.
It is centered around the Invincible-class light aircraft carrier HMS Excellence, along with six destroyers, thirteen frigates, and four nuclear attack submarines.
The number of carrier-based aircraft on the Excellence is fully staffed.
Nine Sea Harrier FA2 fighters, six Harrier GR9A fighters, six Sea King HAS6 anti-submarine helicopters, and three Sea King AEW.2 early warning helicopters.
I believe that no matter what kind of opponent I encounter, I can compete with it.
The only thing to worry about is that the other party is suspected to be an alien from another planet.
May have some technology and weapons that are beyond this era.
at the same time.
Just as the Uchiha Iron Fire Team was fighting against the vampires led by Thorin.
Rough waves on the surface of the North Sea bay.
An aircraft carrier battle group consisting of twenty-one modern warships and four submarines underwater.
They are maintaining a multi-level circular formation, sailing against the wind and waves, under the stars and the moon.
They had left the lighthouse on the Isle of Arran behind.
Entering the widest area of the North Sea Strait is also the location most likely to be attacked.
Therefore, General Girard, who served as the fleet commander, sent out all three "Sea King" early warning helicopters and six anti-submarine helicopters.
At the same time, he ordered two Sea Harrier FA2 fighters to take off and head to Belfast to carry out reconnaissance missions.
This seemed to General Girard to be adequate preparation.
At least there will be no surprise attack.
However.
"General!"
"The radar shows that the signal of Sea Harrier 06 has disappeared, the distance is 40!"
"what?!"
General Girard, who was drinking coffee, suddenly changed his expression.
But the next second, the radar soldier reported again, his voice sounding even more surprised: "Report, the Sea Harrier 07 signal has disappeared!"
This meant that the two fighter jets they sent out were in great danger.
"Order all aircraft to take off immediately!"
"All ships, prepare for air defense!"
General Girard quickly put down the cup of coffee he had just brewed and hadn't even taken a sip of, and immediately issued a combat order.
Soon, the alarm sounded.
One after another, the Sea Harrier FA2 fighter jets and Harrier GR9A fighter jets entered the runway and took off in sequence.
"Haven't you found the other party's signal yet?"
General Girard, who was watching this scene through the French windows of the Tower Bridge, turned around and asked with a serious expression.
"Report, the Type 1022 air-to-air radar and Type 996 air/sea-to-air radar have not detected the radiation source of the enemy fighter jets!"
The radar soldier sitting in front of the radar panel answered with a frown.
"Where are the AWACS helicopters?"
"Where's Skynet?"
General Girard kept asking questions and his attitude was very strong.
Two of our fighter jets were shot down, but we didn't even know where the enemy were or how many there were.
"The AWACS helicopter said it did not observe anything unusual."
"The Skynet satellite system is still searching for the target."
General Girard felt even more depressed after hearing this.
"Is the invisibility ability really that strong?"
"report!"
"'Harrier 9'04 signal lost!"
Before the radar soldier could finish his words, the signalman shouted, "Report!"
“海鹞04、海鹞08表示他们看到了敌方击毁‘鹞9’04的过程，是一架蓝色涂漆，非常像是美国F15的战斗机！”
"Their onboard 'Blue Fox' radar shows that the enemy's flying speed exceeds three times the speed of sound!"
"what?!"
General Girard was completely dumbfounded.
Three times the speed of sound?
Their 'Sea Harrier' and 'Harrier 9' don't even reach the speed of sound!
Moreover, the world's best fighter jets, namely France's Rafale and the United States' F15, have a maximum flight speed of only Mach .
"It looks like an F15, could it be an F22?"
"No, isn't it still in the development stage?"
"And even the F22 can't reach Mach , right?"
The more General Girard thought about it, the more confused he became. It would be great if there was a clearer image.
"report!"
"Skynet has captured enemy aircraft!"
General Girard's eyes lit up, and he immediately ran behind the signalman and looked at the screen connected to the 'satellite system'.
"It's really the F22?!" His eyes suddenly widened.
As a British admiral, he was previously invited to attend the F1998's first flight ceremony in 22.
So I still have an impression of what it looked like.
Although some parts of the star-blue fighter in the picture are different from what I remember, the overall structure is still the F22.
So he strongly doubted that this was the finalized F22!
“Is it the Americans who are behind this?”
General Girard speculated with the greatest malice.
"Send the map back to headquarters immediately!"
"Yes!"
Just what to do next?
General Girard was somewhat at a loss as he heard the repeated reports of his own fighter jets' signals disappearing.
How to deal with a super-modern fighter jet that travels at three times the speed of sound!
at the same time.
In the ten thousand meter night sky, forty kilometers away from the British Royal Atlantic Fleet.
The pilots of the few remaining Sea Harrier FA2 and Harrier GR9A fighters have fallen into panic.
Because their airborne radar can only capture the radiation source when the enemy attacks, and can only briefly display the enemy's position and speed.
This process lasts for a few seconds at most, and then disappears without a trace again.
It's like a ghost lurking in the dark clouds!
The problem is that every time the other side launches an attack, they will destroy one of our fighter planes.
This caused them to not know whether they wanted the other party to appear or not.
And even if they appeared, they would not be able to surround and chase them by relying on their numerical advantage once they found their location.
The difference in flying speed is too big!
How can a group of fighter jets that are not even worthy of the word "Mach" catch up with fighter jets that can reach "Mach 3"?
The problem now is that they can't escape even if they want to.
Even if the opponent only has two!
Some pilots looked desperate.
They could already imagine their seemingly huge aircraft carrier fleet about to be destroyed by these two fighters.
"Oh my God, it appears again, and the target is me again!"
The pilot of Sea Harrier 09 was horrified when he saw the source of the signal suddenly light up on the radar dish.
really.
Behind it, a 'Lightning' fighter of the Astra Militarum fired an air-to-air missile based on the prototype 'AIM-60'.
When the missile approached the tail flame of the Sea Harrier 09, it suddenly separated into three smaller warheads.
One is an electromagnetic pulse bomb, which destroys all of the former's avionics systems.
One is a cluster bomb that explodes countless micro-bombs, blocking most of the directions for dodging and evasion.
The last one is a real high-explosive bomb, the real killer move.
It can be said that this Sea Harrier 09, like its predecessors, had all life cut off from the moment it was targeted.
【boom! ! ! 】
A huge ball of fire exploded in the starry night sky.
The 'F22 modified' that integrates the 'nuclear world's' most advanced technology.
Like a flash of blue lightning, it quickly passed by the raging flames.
Staring at the next poor 'Sea Harrier'.
