Xing Baohua said, "I thought the equipment was broken and you could just deal with it. What are we here for? To expect the Sky Eye to track it? That's ridiculous!"
Actually, this guy doesn't understand why, if ground radar has already scanned it, air radar is needed to follow up. If you really want to shoot it down, send an 8-star aircraft carrier; it can chase it for a while and scare it a bit.
"It's both an exercise and a real-world test. Since this is the first time our system has been used, we've asked you to participate to ensure its reliability and accuracy. If a problem arises, the novices won't be able to handle it. You all know how fast the U-Bird is; it'll be gone in the blink of an eye."
At this moment, Xing Baohua truly hated this group. Tell me, how can you cause trouble like this, stirring up trouble between yourselves and your subordinates?
Getting angry won't help; it's their problem that they don't have holidays and don't even have the concept of the Spring Festival.
As they were talking, the FAST telescope took off, accompanied by four J-8 and four J-7 helicopters.
Don't be fooled by how old these planes are; they were the mainstays of their time, especially the J-8, which was incredibly powerful, boasting both speed and altitude.
Although it can't catch up with the Blackbird, it can still give it a good chase. If it finds a good ambush point and goes at top speed, combined with the speed of the missile, it might actually be able to bring the Blackbird down.
The Sky Eye has already flown to about 10,000 meters, and it's still more than 10,000 meters away from the Blackbird's altitude. That bird can fly to an altitude of more than 25,000 meters, and its full speed is above Mach 3.
It's said that no bullet can catch up with it.
This bird always wanders over to North Korea, causing chaos and confusion. Just when you're ready to shoot it down, it's already flown out of bounds.
It's not that the Russians lacked the capability to shoot it down; they even had Mach 4 missiles, but the conditions didn't allow it—it was a very complex kind.
As for coming to stroll around our area, well, the higher-ups said that since we're here and it's a joyous occasion, we should set off fireworks so that our guests can have a good look.
So a scarecrow project was launched. Everyone knows the purpose of scarecrows: to be placed in the fields to scare away birds.
Our country has a vast territory and abundant resources, giving us time to adjust.
Ground-based radar is limited, but when the signal is transferred to the Sky Eye and enters its range of four or five hundred kilometers, the fire radar is fully activated and directly scans the target.
The infrared sensor on the missile was removed, and the entire flight was guided by a "sky-eye" system.
The launch was necessary, but it couldn't be shot down. That's why the infrared warhead was removed, and a missile was used to escort the Blackbird. This was of great significance. Next time, it wouldn't be an escort mission, but a direct shot-down.
The FAST telescope has its advanced features and many functions. Whether it can complete its mission and execute smoothly depends on the hardware and system that Xing Baohua has developed.
With a shared sea, land, and air system, it could at least chase and beat up the Blackbird for fifteen minutes.
The Sky Eye flew towards the Bohai Bay, and calculations showed that its intersection with the Blackbird was also near the Bohai Bay.
They're just not on the same level.
Xing Baohua and the other two stayed together for the time being. Since the system was functioning normally, they were a bit bored and couldn't move around freely. They could only sit there and look at the data on the screen.
"Signal ready to connect, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, connect."
Commander Li quickly moved closer to the radar screen and said, "Lock on!"
"Locked up".
"Data sharing ground-based system, launch!"
"Data sharing complete, ready for ignition, 3, 2, 1, ignition successful, flight stable, altitude 3,400 meters, speed 680 meters per second, still gradually ascending."
Commander Li hurriedly said, "Activate satellite guidance and transmit data."
"Satellite connection complete, data upload in progress."
Hearing their rigid and mechanical answers, Xing Baohua felt a little nervous. She turned her head to look at Xiao Tianna, who seemed a bit dazed, and asked, "At such a tense moment, you're actually dozing off and confused?"
"Our task is to keep an eye on the equipment and carry out emergency repairs. The equipment is working well, isn't it? Don't worry, we're not involved."
"Damn, you're really fearless. Aren't you afraid they'll send fighter jets to shoot down our Sky Eye?"
"They need to have the capability. Speaking of which, I'm not sleepy anymore. Let me explain to you, a layman. Usually, the escorting fighters are a squadron of 4-5 aircraft. What about us now? We have 8, which is a whole squadron. Whether it's a missile or a fighter jet coming, the Sky Eye will be the first to spot it. As soon as the target is locked, the escorting fighters will pounce."
Whether it's interception or blocking enemy fire, this surveillance camera might survive to the end, perhaps even holding out until reinforcements arrive. Of course, if the enemy actually dares to attack, what do you think will happen?
"No matter what happens, my first priority is to move."
"Yes, that's right. Moving was the right thing to do. The rice won't be left behind; it will definitely be taken care of in the first round."
Xing Baohua sighed, shook his head, and decided to use the "three burrows" trick.
Just then, someone in the cabin shouted: "We have caught up and are adjusting our attitude. The air pressure in the aerodynamic cabin is normal. The orbit change is complete."
Xing Baohua couldn't understand the technical terms, but they seemed very sophisticated to him.
Look at missile technology now, they can even turn corners.
Xing Baohua was clearly unaware that this move had terrified the two guys in the U-Bird.
Kaiser and Allen have been partners for a long time. When they go out to visit each other, the warning indicator lights on the dashboard will flash continuously.
They never took it seriously, but ever since they entered this continent, they've felt that something is off.
I've been locked by the fire control system many times, and I've even been chased by rockets before.
But all of them ended without serious harm.
But this time was different; the sirens kept blaring. It wasn't until their onboard radar issued a warning that a rocket was approaching at Mach 4.
