As soon as the cannon sounded, the command room immediately became nervous. Information from all sources was gathered. Now, to use anti-aircraft guns to attack airplanes, there was no need for the command room to issue orders, as the authority had been delegated.
As Old Man Yang and Old Man Su listened to the report, their faces quickly turned gloomy.
After a while, Zhou Guanjun walked in with a tired face.
These days, the three of them have been working around the clock and can only get some sleep when they have time.
"What's going on?" While walking, Zhou Guanjun had already put on his glasses and was reading various news.
"It can't hit the target, what else can it be!" Old Man Yang said angrily, "Hasn't there been any order from above? When will the missile battalion open fire?"
This issue has been bothering me for two days. Although there was an order and Old Man Yang carried it out, he insisted on firing one shot.
In fact, it was not just Old Man Yang. Everyone who knew about this was furious and wanted to shoot down all the planes in the sky. The joy of shooting down three planes a few days ago was gone.
"Something's wrong, the data is wrong!" After reading the news, Zhou Guanjun keenly noticed a set of data, "The enemy plane's flight altitude is wrong. I think our opponent's equipment has changed. They sent out the U2."
"That's impossible!" Old Man Su was shocked and came over immediately. "When was this data? Why didn't I notice it?"
"just!"
"Lao Jiang would not do such a thing, would he? He only got the plane not long ago. Does he have a pilot?"
"That's hard to say! Since Midea can support his aircraft, it must be no problem to support some of his pilots. After all, they are in the sky, who knows who is in it? We can't do anything to them just because their aircraft are advanced."
Although this sounds angry, it is true.
The U2 can fly at an altitude of more than 20,000 meters, which is beyond the reach of anti-aircraft guns.
The three of them were silent for a while, and in the end no one could come up with any constructive suggestions.
This is the gap, so annoying!
"It seems that Chiang Kai-shek is not the only one who cares about these ships." Zhou Guanjun touched his chin, his eyes flickering. "The US is even more concerned. I dare say that if we shoot down their U2, they will immediately behave themselves and will definitely not dare to send planes to investigate again, at least not in such a dense manner."
Compared with before, the number of planes in the sky can no longer be described as dense, but rather as dumplings being put into a pot.
Zhou Guanjun no longer hesitated and picked up the phone to call his superior: "Commander, my department believes that the time is ripe and recommends that we shoot down the U2 at all costs..."
Missile Battalion Headquarters.
Battalion Commander Wang Yifa held the U2 data with a very serious expression.
The fact that he was chosen as the commander of the missile battalion was due to his unquestionable professionalism. He had even dealt with U2 two years ago, but the person driving the U2 at that time was not a Niang Xipi person.
Moreover, information about U2 was very scarce at that time, and the anti-aircraft guns were completely helpless.
"Finally, I have a chance to do something!" Wang Yifa gritted his teeth secretly, and then ordered loudly: "Attention, all units, our opponent this time is the most advanced U2 high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft, we must shoot it down at all costs, three launchers, ready..."
The kill probability of the SAM-2's three shots and single shot is completely different. From the orders, it can be seen that everyone is holding their breath and wants to shoot down a U2.
But the actual situation was not like this..., there was more than one U2 in the sky, the so-called 35th Weather Reconnaissance Team dispatched three U2s and wingmen, although they were heading in different directions, they had the same purpose, all of which was to search for the 055 near the island.
At high altitude, instructor Jim was flying a U2 at an altitude of more than 20,000 meters.
In addition to him, there were two other formations, with the U2 pilots being Green and David, and the wingmen flying at low altitude.
"Hey, Jim!" The pilot named Green said in a teasing tone on the communication channel, "I don't understand what we are looking for. Do you really believe in this nonsense about an advanced ship?"
"Haha, Green, you have to understand Jim." Another pilot, David, said with a smile, "His good friend was killed. The news he sent back before his death is always somewhat reliable."
These two people were not originally from the Americans who were providing support on the island. They came from the Seventh Fleet.
Both of them and Jim have always looked down on Inland, especially Jim. He would fly occasionally, so he didn't need the influence of his dead friend. He didn't take Inland seriously and thought it was just his back garden. Carrying out missions there was like playing and there was no danger at all.
But a few days ago, Jim received the news that his good friend had been killed. He learned that his friend and his wingman were shot down and killed by a mysterious giant battleship inland.
To be honest, they don't want to believe it, but the facts are right in front of them. If you don't believe it, you have to have another explanation.
So both Baldy and Midea attached great importance to it and sent out planes and people to investigate and make sure to find the ship. When 101 returned empty-handed, they brazenly sent out U2, and three of them came at a time.
"Hey, listen, I have an idea." Green, who is very experienced in carrying out missions, said in a serious tone, "Do you know Powers? He was shot down. The missile that shot him down was SA2, a new type of surface-to-air missile. You know, they have always been good friends and allies. I think it might be SA2 that shot down your friend..."
Jim was shocked and felt that what Green said made sense.
After Powers was shot down, the United States was in a state of great tension and spent a huge amount of resources researching the SAM 2. It also provided it to frontline personnel to prepare for defense.
