"Flying Dragon calling Flying Cat, I have reached the designated airspace, please provide instructions."
Even while singing, Yuan Yi did not forget to fly towards his predetermined target airspace.
About ten minutes later, he had already arrived at the coordinates sent to his J-18 carrier-based aircraft.
It was afternoon, and the sun was shining brightly over the sea.
I don’t know if it’s because of winter, but there’s not a ripple on the sea.
"Flying Cat received. Flying Dragon, please patrol and fly according to the linked route."
At this moment, Yuan Yi's J-18 carrier-based aircraft received another link from the early warning aircraft.
"Flying Dragon received."
After hanging up the communication, Yuan Yi looked at the airspace.
Geographically speaking, this place is more than 200 kilometers away from the USS Fujian aircraft carrier.
Amami is an island city located closer to Japan, under the jurisdiction of Kagoshima Prefecture.
Originally, according to the requirements, carrier-based aircraft should fly in formation of at least two aircraft.
However, since Yuan Yi, the pilot who suddenly joined the flight midway, had no wingman, both flights were solo.
Yuan Yi didn't know why he was asked to patrol this area of the sea.
However, since the superiors have issued the order, he just needs to carry it out obediently.
"Beep beep beep, beep beep beep, beep beep beep."
At that moment, an alarm suddenly went off in the cockpit.
Yuan Yi immediately looked up at the radar screen.
At that moment, he saw a fleet formation rapidly advancing 150 nautical miles away from him.
"Flying Dragon calls Flying Cat, I have spotted America's fleet at East longitude *** North latitude ***".
"The identified vessels are eighty ships of various sizes, including the America amphibious assault ship, destroyer, frigate, and cruiser."
Yuan Yi immediately reported to the command post.
"Flying Cat received. Please escort and monitor the target along the way, and await further instructions."
"Flying Dragon received." Yuan Yi replied and flew directly towards the fleet.
"Is this Xiaomeizi's reinforcement fleet? But how did they get here from this area?"
What Yuan Yi didn't know was that these eighty ships were originally conducting exercises in the South China Sea with the Joint Fleet.
However, Emily suddenly found herself in a standoff with China in the East China Sea, with war seemingly imminent.
They also had to concentrate all their efforts on the East China Sea.
Moreover, a carrier strike group they have deployed from the Indian Ocean is rapidly approaching the South China Sea to take their place.
Just as Yuan Yi was flying towards Xiao Meizi's fleet.
Little did they know that a special ship was secretly hidden within the fleet.
That was the famous electronic reconnaissance ship, the "Lorenzen".
This famous electronic reconnaissance ship is over 100 meters long, over 20 meters wide, and has a displacement of over 12,000 tons.
Their electronic reconnaissance ship appeared in the area to electronically suppress our naval vessels and fighter jets.
This is also to counter our electronic reconnaissance ships.
Electronic reconnaissance ships are naval service vessels used for electronic reconnaissance.
The electromagnetic signals and data collected by electronic reconnaissance ships are of great importance for deciphering enemy encrypted signals, exploring the patterns of enemy communication frequency bands, and studying targeted jamming methods.
Its full-load displacement is generally over 500 tons, with larger ones reaching around 4,000 tons, and its speed is below 20 knots.
It can conduct electronic reconnaissance of port targets or ships at sea for extended periods of time.
Because both electronic equipment research and development and shipbuilding require high standards, very few countries are capable of building electronic reconnaissance ships. Only China, the United States, Japan, Russia, and some European countries are able to build electronic reconnaissance ships entirely on their own.
Electronic reconnaissance ships are naval service vessels used for electronic reconnaissance.
They are equipped with radio receivers, radar receivers, terminal demodulation and recording equipment, signal analysis instruments and receiving antennas of various frequency bands, and some are also equipped with electronic jamming equipment.
The "Lorenzen" is equipped not only with a large active phased array dual-band radar.
Active phased array radar can also carry out electronic jamming, which involves emitting a cluster of electronic beams in one direction.
The goal is to burn through the electronic components of the other party's equipment, thereby causing the equipment to malfunction or be damaged.
It is important to understand that the strength of electronic reconnaissance ships lies in their powerful electronic reconnaissance capabilities and stealth operation capabilities, enabling them to collect enemy intelligence without being detected, thus providing support for military decision-making.
Furthermore, electronic reconnaissance ships are difficult to detect by radar because they employ stealth technology, possess excellent electromagnetic compatibility and concealment, and have powerful electronic jamming capabilities.
These characteristics enable it to effectively avoid detection by enemy radar when performing missions.
Meanwhile, on Emily's electronic reconnaissance ship, they had already received electronic signals detected by radar and discovered the fighter jets flying toward them at an extremely high speed.
"Captain, a Chinese J-18 carrier-based aircraft has been spotted approaching us at subsonic cruising speed."
"He must have discovered our fleet."
Captain Goodhali of the electronic reconnaissance ship "Lorenzen" walked into the cabin and frowned as he looked at the signals on the radar.
Their trip to the edge of the East China Sea with this fleet was a secret operation.
The purpose is to catch the enemy off guard when launching a war.
They were confident that they would remain undetectable by enemy radar, but their ship would be easily distinguishable if fighter jets got close.
"knew."
"Continue monitoring."
"Yes, Captain."
Goodhali walked to the side and spoke directly to the communications officer.
"Connect me to Pacific Base Command."
"I am Captain Goodhari of the HMS Lorenzen."
"Commander, a Chinese fighter jet is rapidly approaching our position."
"To avoid unnecessary trouble, I suggest that we immediately implement electromagnetic interference against him to prevent our ship from being exposed."
At this time, in the Pacific Naval Base Command Headquarters.
Upon hearing Goodhali's words, the commander's brows furrowed even more deeply.
In just a few dozen seconds, his expression changed several times.
Finally, he spoke up and said, "I agree to your plan."
"Immediately implement electromagnetic interference, and your ships will immediately break away from the formation and head towards the Pacific Ocean, then maneuver around to the rear of the carrier formation."
"Yes, Commander."
After receiving the approval, Goodhali hung up the communication and immediately picked up the walkie-talkie.
"I am Captain Goodhali. I will immediately activate the active phased array radar and fire a multi-beam array at the target."
"Understood, sir."
At this moment, Yuan Yi was completely unaware that danger was approaching.
"Beep beep beep, beep beep beep, beep beep beep."
"Alarm, alarm, alarm."
Suddenly, a rapid alarm sounded in the cabin.
