The answer is that it's a dangerous sea area, where you're likely to get hit by stray bullets.
Xia Yu can guarantee that the shells printed by the system will not have duds, but the probability of some stockpiled ammunition repurchased from around the world having a dud rate is still quite high.
If it falls and hits a fish, that's not a big deal, but if it hits a person, that's a major accident.
Not to mention the wreckage of target drones that fall from the sky, making the demarcation of military restricted areas essential.
"First Lieutenant Sherlock, the captain's cabin is a bit plain, but only in this way can it be in line with the identity of a soldier."
After resting briefly in the captain's cabin, Ha Mandan spoke to Xia Yu on the way to the dining hall.
To be honest, the French-style design and decoration of the captain's cabin is already luxurious enough, but it seems very simple in the eyes of the nouveau riche royal family.
"Yes, Captain Hamandan, we plan to launch our attack at dusk tomorrow. Please make sure you are well-rested."
Xia Yu said to the other party.
But the price is only 500,000 per shot, so you won't lose out or be cheated.
He has always emphasized that the safety of tourists is more important than profits.
"That sounds interesting. I'm not particularly interested in World War II planes, but I'd really like to try throwing those bouncing bombs you're talking about."
To reduce weight, the GSh-301 cannon of the original MiG-29K had its ammunition capacity reduced to 100 rounds, while the MiG-29UBK, which is designed for concentrated fire defense, is a modified version with 150 rounds.
Haman Dan dislikes the old-fashioned "electric fan," but he simply can't resist such a strange and unusual weapon.
This is a multi-million dollar order. He can choose not to go home, but he has to keep the client happy.
As Xia Yu spoke, he looked at the old Mitchell bomber, whose nose was covered with gun barrels.
Alright, let's come back again later and let others test the waters, to see if Jihuo Defense's WWII carrier-based aircraft are reliable.
The Saint Paul ship offers two types of mess halls, one Chinese and one French. Apart from the differences in taste and dishes, the ingredients are mostly high in protein and non-gas-producing (soy products, radishes, etc.).
Xia Yu's approach is to customize the outer shell and modularize the core, such as the MK-13 Mod 10 aerial torpedo that took 19 hits before sinking the Musashi.
Old Ha didn't like these World War II planes, so Xia Yu took the opportunity to take him to visit other attractions.
After dinner, Xia Yu led the captain, who was on board for the first time, to thoroughly inspect the work of various departments on the St. Paul, which was also the tour route for ordinary tourists.
It will use the same engine and fuse as the Type 91 Kai-2 aerial torpedo used by the Japanese during the attack on Pearl Harbor.
As for the two VIP restaurants on board, they have several more days to experience them at their leisure!
The old Talik-class aircraft carriers were originally equipped with S-100 drones, but those were expensive. Xia Yu directly imported a batch of domestically produced, affordable large-scale model aircraft without any of the equipment, which brought the cost down.
Upon receiving the message, Xia Yu rubbed his eyes, got up to wash, and after a simple breakfast, he went to the hangar again.
After completing the mission tomorrow night, it won't be too late to try some Chinese cuisine at the celebration banquet when we get back.
Wealthy people are both afraid of danger and crave excitement. Old Ha doesn't really trust these piston-engine propeller planes right now, even with the example of the second phase of the project.
He used to wonder if Old Magneto had too many bullets and couldn't use them all, but later he learned that it was part of a complete strike tactic.
A few hours later, while Old A, wearing an eye mask, was still fast asleep on the large bed in the captain's cabin, a tugboat towed a destroyer away from Black Point Harbor.
Flying in a fighter jet for ten or twenty minutes or half an hour is fine, but if the time is extended to two or three hours, it will be a great test for both the body and mind.
Yes, it's for self-defense; you don't pay unless you fight.
With so many shells, taking down a drone within visual range is quite easy.
"I hope it will satisfy you, Captain. Let's go check out the ammunition depot!"
By clearing out the anti-aircraft units on the transport ships with concentrated firepower, we can use ricochet bombs to destroy these auxiliary vessels and deplete the Japanese war potential.
Modern players tend to target warships when engaging in naval combat, while World War II players would like to attack World War II warships, but those old ships have either been dismantled or built into museums, so it's more realistic to target civilian scrapped merchant ships.
They only ended their journey for the day when they saw each other start yawning and showing signs of fatigue.
In addition to six AM-39 Exocet missiles, there are also two R-73 air-to-air missiles for self-defense.
"I will. We need to consume enough calories tonight."
Upon arriving at the World War II exhibit area in the hangar, Xia Yu introduced it to Ha Mandan.
Therefore, tourists who choose carrier-based aircraft value-added services must first undergo a medical examination to confirm that there are no hidden dangers before they can consume such services.
To destroy those capital warships, it would require a combined effort of TBD torpedo bombers, SBD Dauntless dive bombers, and fighter jets to strangle them.
Old aerial bombs are relatively easy to archaeologically study, but old torpedoes are much more troublesome. Although you can print them with just one torpedo bomber, you still need to replicate the specific hand-crafting process if you want to commercialize them without risk.
"Therefore, we still recommend the American B-25. The bouncing bombs used to attack Japanese transport ships during World War II are being researched and replicated. This thing is more interesting than torpedoes."
After escorting the captain back to his cabin, Xia Yu didn't disembark but went directly to the captain's living quarters on the bridge.
If the drone takes off, and you have the capability to take it down, where will your customers' dignity be?
Of course, as an honest business, Xia Yu will not force customers to make purchases. It's fine if you don't need missiles; the plane also has machine guns.
"This is the Blackburn Skuas two-seat dive bomber from England. Everything else is fine, except it's a bit slow."
One of the MiG-29UBKs scheduled to carry out a mission today completed its final maintenance last night, and the maintenance crew is now loading munitions.
"Yes, all of them are loaded with chaff; we didn't use heat decoys this time."
According to the survey, modern players and World War II players are roughly split 70/30, with some, like Larry, playing both games.
Fearing that a sudden change in eating habits would lead to food poisoning after takeoff, Lao Ha opted for French cuisine instead.
Xia Yu said to the maintenance personnel while resetting the fighter jet's passive countermeasures system.
The MiG-29UBK has two BVP-30-26M chaff/infrared decoy launchers. These 60 slots can be freely configured according to actual needs. His choice is a 60-round 26mm PPR-26 chaff launcher.
When playing aerial combat games, it has to be half and half; close-range air combat missiles are basically all infrared seekers.
This is the shield of a fighter jet; in addition to its multiple layers of armor, warships have also developed a similar shield.
Examples include the Dagai type from Germany, the MK36SRBOC from the United States, the PK series from Russia, and the Corvus from the United Kingdom.
Talik didn't use the original British product, but rather a mass developed by the German company Buck.
German goods aren't cheap; they're dismantling them along with the computers and launch equipment to prepare for transplanting them onto the new ship.
Xia Yu thought this was a good thing; otherwise, if a single layer of armor could take down a flying fish, how could the consumer experience be guaranteed?
We need to ensure a hit rate of at least 50%. That means it's okay if you block one or two shots, but you have to be absolutely certain of the other four or five to block them.
After the maintenance team finished their work, Ha Mandan, who had been sleeping until late morning, woke up.
After washing up, I ate lunch directly. In the afternoon, I put on my anti-G suit and went to the operations command room to learn theoretical knowledge from Xia Yu.
As a seasoned player with a solid foundation, he knew the procedures for American and French fighter jets to launch missiles and fire cannons, so he quickly got the hang of switching to the Soviet system.
This saved Xia Yu a lot of trouble. Xiao Bai had to attend classes all day, otherwise he would have accidentally ejected himself while randomly maneuvering in the air.
The sea breeze blew across the fine sand, and the tourists on the beach gradually dispersed, leaving only a few who planned to watch the sunset.
Of course, you can also take a look at the antique aircraft squadron that has just returned to base.
After systematic maintenance, these old aircraft, despite their advanced age, have remarkably robust structures. One by one, they were stopped by arresting cables after their landing gear made contact with the flight deck.
The elevator simply returned an F-6F Hellcat to the hangar, and when it came up, it also carried a fully armed MiG-29UBK.
"There was something hanging on the belly of the plane that looked like an R-73, and those thick things too..."
Several aviation enthusiasts in the crowd were extremely excited to discover an unexpected bonus.
"It's an Exocet! The large X-shaped swept-back swallowtail fin in the middle of the missile body is definitely an Exocet. The fulcrum that can hold an Exocet is extremely rare!"
"One, two, three... seven, eight, I told you it was nine hardpoints, modified to be the same as the MiG-29K."
The MiG-29 does not have wingtip pylons like the Flanker; the older version only had six underwing pylons and one centerline hardpoint. The carrier-based MiG-29K was the only one to have two more.
Previously, without missiles, pilots couldn't accurately determine how many hardpoints the MiG-29UBK had.
The conclusion is now clear: it's 8+1. Of the 8 underwing pylons, 6 are heavy pylons capable of carrying anti-ship missiles.
But here's the problem: it's almost dinnertime, and you've hung up everything you could. What are you planning to do?
Of course, they went to fight ships.
"Buzz boom"
Launched into the air, the MiG-29UBK with afterburner engaged spewed out two fiery exhaust plumes from its high-temperature Mach rings, tearing apart the blood-red sunset on the horizon in everyone's sight.
"Filming position number one on the sea surface is ready!"
More than 100 nautical miles from Kongluga on the high seas, a speedboat was suspended far off the port side of a warship. A camera on board, equipped with a gimbal, steadily aimed its lens at the distant Talik-class destroyer.
"Sky One filming location is ready!"
"Sky 2 filming location is ready!"
The Sparrowhawk A and CH-4, which took off before the MiG-29UBK, both arrived at the target airspace.
The recently retired Sparrowhawk A from Jihuo Defense remains at Konluga as a filming aircraft, still able to contribute its remaining value. The Busa, which just received the remaining three CH-4s, is purely interested in carrier-based anti-ship aircraft and actively serves as a filming volunteer.
Now all three cameras are ready, just waiting for the main character to appear.
Bathed in the last rays of the setting sun, Ha Mandan watched as their aircraft's refueling port was inserted into the plug cone of the C-135FR towed refueling hose.
Once the connection was confirmed to be in place, tons of aviation kerosene were pumped into their aircraft's internal fuel tanks.
Because this was a heavily loaded takeoff, their fuel tanks were only filled to less than half full, so they had to refuel in the air first to sustain them through the high-intensity combat later on.
"This is a bit like a camel drinking water. I'm feeling good now. Shall we set off after we refuel?"
Sitting in the front seat, with a good view, Ha Mandan and her partner Xia Yu spoke.
"Yes, Commander, the drone has pinpointed the target's location for us. After shooting down our drone with an anti-aircraft missile, the enemy is fleeing in a southeast direction."
Xia Yu said, referring to the script he had memorized.
The drone was still hovering in the sky, but the Talik-class destroyer's six-cell anti-aircraft missile system had already launched one of its missiles as programmed.
There was no other way; naval guns and Phalanx CIWS couldn't reach it. Only surface-to-air missiles could take down the drone, which was seven or eight kilometers away.
"Then what are we waiting for? We absolutely cannot let them get away."
Old Ha gets into character very quickly; even if he can't recognize all the faces, it doesn't affect his performance.
"yes!"
After the oil probe detached from the cone sleeve and retracted, and the distance between them and the dairy crew increased, Xia Yu controlled the aircraft to turn. After making a large circle, they chased after the aircraft in a southeast direction.
"Beep beep beep"
The unmanned control terminal on the tugboat sounded an urgent alarm.
"What's wrong"
"The radar has detected the boss and his team."
When the Talik-class destroyers were recommissioned, they were upgraded with the Heze Signnalda-08 air/plane search radar, which has a range of up to 210 kilometers against targets with a cross-section of 2 square meters in the S-band.
The MiG-29's RSC value is between 3 and 5, so it was detected by remotely controlled radar after completing its circumnavigation maneuver.
"Beep beep beep"
"Damn it, are we locked on?"
A piercing warning sound echoed through the cabin, and Old Ha asked excitedly.
"No, it's still in the tracking phase; their missiles can't reach that far."
Xia Yu answered calmly.
Because its target customers are relatively international, its RWR alerts do not use Chinese voice packs, but this is the stage of enemy tracking.
"But they're within our missile range, Sherlock, let's make a call to them."
Ha Mandan asked for the opinion of the person in the back seat.
They have six flying fish, so it's acceptable if the first one misses.
What could Xia Yu say if he spent 2.5 million to make a move?
"As you wish, the A3 mounting is ready, launch authorization has been granted, please launch!"
"call out"
Without hesitation, Old Ha pressed the launch button. The second Exocet missile under the left wing ignited its first-stage booster and detached from the pylon, then continuously accelerated the missile to supersonic speed.
"Buzz"
With the main engine ignited, the AM-39 began cruising close to the sea surface, and its speed gradually decreased to below Mach 1.
"Boss has launched an anti-ship missile; it's 80 seconds away from hitting the target!"
The makeshift operations command center on the tugboat was bustling with activity as they remotely read radar data feedback.
But a small boat is just a small boat; it doesn't even have a vertical launch system, so it can't fire medium- or long-range air defense missiles. It can only react when incoming missiles and fighter jets are within its range.
However, even the slowest flying fish is still faster than an airplane.
"60 seconds!"
"50 seconds, launch!"
"Whoosh!"
The Talik-class destroyer, which was fleeing in panic, fired two anti-aircraft missiles from its six-cell launcher.
These two red pasta-version Sea Sparrows haven't shown any signs of fatigue even after 20 years, but replacing the warhead with foil is a real blow.
The inspiration mainly came from the Russians, whose cruise missiles can release heat decoys and chaff at the end of their trajectory, while the air defense missiles used in simulated combat would have to have their warheads completely replaced.
"Boom boom"
Several explosions followed in quick succession as the proximity fuses of two anti-aircraft missiles detonated, sending large quantities of chaff into the night sky, creating a curtain of light.
"boom"
The Exocet missile, whose active radar seeker was deceived by the chaff counterweight, exploded with a bang, turning into an expensive firework.
Indeed, it will be difficult to achieve an exchange ratio of one Exocet destroying one destroyer again this century.
The tanks on the shore are stacking armor, and the warships at sea are not idle either, only the fighter jets in the sky remain the most vulnerable.
However, if the ejection is fast enough, the pilot's life can be saved.
"Commander, we can't keep firing recklessly. We need to deplete their anti-aircraft missiles."
After confirming that their missiles had been intercepted by the target, Xia Yu quickly spoke to Ha Mandan in the front seat.
The aircraft is about to enter the interception range of the enemy's air defense missiles.
"You're right, it's a lie..."
"Beep beep beep"
The urgent alert from the airborne radar interrupted Lao Ha.
"The target is so small, they took off with a drone."
Xia Yu read the data on the screen and said.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's take them out with close-range bullets!"
In this urgent situation, they even used machine guns to shoot down drones, sending them to their doom with a single air-to-air missile.
"Target locked, B1 pylon ready, launch clearance granted, please launch!"
"call out"
The outermost R-73 missile on the right side of the MiG-29UBK detached from its pylon and disappeared into the night, trailing a long plume of smoke.
"boom"
A flash of light appeared in the night sky within sight.
"Taken! Missile hit! We've taken down the target!"
Hearing the sound of 500,000 yuan being pocketed, Xia Yu was second only to the customer in the seat in front of him in terms of immersion in the moment.
"It's good to take it down. It would be troublesome if the drone had integrated air-to-air missiles."
As Lao Ha was speaking, my heart, which had been pounding, relaxed a little. But this game was all about the thrill.
"Whoosh!"
Two anti-aircraft missiles ignited at the first stage and shot off from their launchers one after the other, hurtling towards the MiG-29UBK that had entered their range.
"Dulu dulu"
The target launched a missile, and the alert sounded for the first time in the cockpit that they had been locked on.
At this moment, Ha Mandan was completely lacking the composure expected of an ace pilot; he only felt a dry throat and a sense of helplessness.
"Commander, their missiles were fired too early. We could have taken cover by descending to a higher altitude at 39!"
"Yes, hurry up and get down on the third nine-day period!"
The doomed pilot grasped at a straw; although he couldn't do this damn maneuver, the real ace in the back seat could, right?
Taking the direction of the incoming missile as 12 o'clock, Xia Yu quickly pulled back on the stick, aligning the nose of the aircraft with the 3 o'clock position and rapidly descending their altitude. Simultaneously:
"Puff puff puff puff"
The chaff was thrown out like it was free, covering the entire screen in the thermal imaging view of the CH-4's photoelectric head, which was further away.
"Boom boom"
Two explosions rang out in succession, and the Doppler radar of the single-pulse seeker was successfully deceived, turning into a brighter curtain of light in the night sky.
"They've managed to shake off both of them."
With his hands trembling, Old Ha asked Xia Yu behind him.
"Yes, Commander, they only have one anti-aircraft missile left. It's time to launch a saturation attack on the target."
After straightening the aircraft and regaining altitude, Xia Yu offered a suggestion to Ha Mandan.
