From the Island Owner to the King

President Cleveland looked at Dave Berreke and said, "What is the success rate of interception at the third missile ambush point. [No pop-up window..]"

"Eighty-seven percent, Mr. President," Dave Burek replied.

"If the 'Little Apophis' is successfully intercepted at the third missile ambush point, where are you going to destroy it." President Cleveland continued to ask.

Dave Burrek replied, "Mid-Atlantic waters, Mr. President! The 'Little Apophis' meteorite will change its flight trajectory under the powerful impact of the missile explosion and is expected to land at a distance of Flores. The sea area 320 nautical miles in the direction of 47 degrees to the southeast of the archipelago, ..., we believe that this sea area is the most ideal and the most successful destruction site we have selected, ..., belongs to the US ballistic missile submarine fleet The nuclear submarine Henry M. Jackson of (ssbn) is cruising in this area at the moment.

The Henry M. Jackson carried the Trident II d5 with very long range and very high precision, and was waiting for the s command. "

"Will there be destructive effects on the nearby Flores Islands?" President Cleveland asked Dave Burreke.

"There will be no impact. We can accurately destroy the 'Little Apophis' at high altitude with 100% confidence, and the meteor shower formed after destroying the 'Little Apophis' will not land on Flores, 320 nautical miles away. On the archipelago, the nuclear radiation from the nuclear bomb explosion will not spread to the Flores Islands," Dave Burek replied.

Hearing this, Cleveland nodded and turned to look at the group of people beside him, including Vice President John Lyndon, the Senate, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, the Minister of Defense, the Minister of the Navy, the Army, the Air Force, the Commander, and the four-star at the level of the Minister of Operations. Admiral and Samsung Lieutenant General, Cleveland said. "What is your opinion, do you agree to choose to intercept 'Little Apophis' at the third missile ambush point?"

John Lyndon said first, "I agree."

"Agree." The Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives also nodded.

"Agreed," said the Secretary of Defense.

"Agreed," said the generals.

"I agree too," said President Cleveland at last. "That's it." Finished. Turning his head to look at Dave Burke, he said, "Mr. Burke, give the order."

Hearing this, Dave Berek nodded, turned his head and said loudly. "Everyone, pay attention to the implementation of plan No. 3."

In order to successfully intercept the 'Little Apophis' meteorite, poco has formulated various plans, each plan is a very sophisticated and huge system, involving many aspects, multiple systems,

Government, government, agencies, Ministry of Defense. The Department of the Navy, the U.S. Missile Defense System, and the Strategic Strike System,  ….

For example, to issue an interceptor missile, you need to pass the order of the Ministry of National Defense. Even if you are the president, you cannot and have no right to directly order the anti-aircraft missile unit to issue a missile to detect the flight track of 'Little Apophis'. . Calculating the landing point of 'Little Apophis' requires the detection satellites of NASA's subordinate space center, and the deployment of nuclear submarines requires the order of the Ministry of the Navy, ssbn.

The final launch of the s nuclear bomb is a very complex system. A tactically miniaturized nuclear bomb only needs an order from a regional command, for example, to send tactical missiles to Russia, North Korea, or China. The commander of the 3rd Expeditionary Force Command of the US military stationed in Okinawa can best order the s.

However, strategic nuclear missiles need a 'nuclear button'. The password of the 'nuclear button' is divided into three parts, one part is in the hands of the nuclear bomb controller, for example, the captain of the strategic nuclear submarine, the top commander of the strategic missile force, etc. Part of In the hands of the top leaders of the country, such as the president, prime minister or king, the last part is in the hands of politicians, such as the Senate and House of Representatives, the House of Representatives, the Congress, etc. Moreover, the password of each nuclear bomb is unique, and the target is attacked. The setting is also unique, ......

When it is necessary to carry out a nuclear strike on a target, the Supreme Head of State of the country is required to obtain the passwords of the political participants and the nuclear bomb controller after obtaining the consent of the political participants. It also needs a composite password, which is the order in which the three parts of the password are synthesized, and sometimes it is completely scrambled and then divided into three parts.

After synthesizing the final password, send the password to the nuclear bomb controller, who will input the nuclear bomb sending program. Sometimes the commander and deputy commander or the commander and the political commissar must unlock the lock at the same time, and then the password can be finally input, and then the nuclear bomb can be sent. , ......

It's not like many people think that the president can launch a nuclear bomb with a suitcase by his side, and it is definitely not like in Hollywood movies, as long as you get a nuclear bomb, you can threaten others.

Among them, the No. 3 plan is a destruction system developed around the interception of the 'Little Apophis' meteorite at the third missile abutment point.

Poco plays a role as a bridge here to coordinate various agencies, government, government, Ministry of Defense, and the military.

......

'Received, execute plan 3. "

"This is NORAD, the interceptor missile is ready, ..., the flight trajectory of 'Little Apophis' is being calculated, the coordinates of the launch have been determined, ..., the data has been entered into the control program, ..., ready to launch, the interceptor missile will launch in 6 minutes and 42 seconds!"

'The Henry M. Jackson is ready! ! Waiting for the s command!

......

NASA headquarters, the air in the command hall seemed to freeze, the atmosphere was very dignified, everyone pursed their mouths tightly, with no expression on their faces, everyone's eyes stared at the countdown displayed on the big screen, 00:5:27.

It is less than 5 and a half minutes before the launch of the s interceptor missile, and success or failure is here.

You must know that it is very difficult to accurately intercept 'Little Apophis'. It is not just that the missile only needs to hit 'Little Apophis'. This point can be easily achieved with the precision guidance technology of the United States. , and the error can be controlled within a small range.

However, it is very difficult to 'accurately' intercept 'Little Apophis', which requires the interceptor missile to hit the 'Little Apophis' meteorite at the calculated location and at a calculated angle, in order to accurately change the meteorite's flight trajectory under control , Make the meteorite land on the target area, ......, if it misses, the consequences will be serious, and it misses a few angles. The meteorite may land on the African continent. It is impossible for the United States to send nuclear missiles to the African continent.

The 87% interception success rate is very high.

The headache is that the meteorites move irregularly and fly fast. The angle is constantly changing, and it is impossible to accurately calculate the meteorite's flight trajectory and specific landing site. If Chen Rui provided a prediction of the specific landing site of the meteorite on the slate, the meteorite's flight trajectory could be calculated through reverse thrust. Otherwise, accurate interception is very difficult, and the interception success rate may not be 30%.

......

Because of the time difference, at this time, all over the world, when you go to bed at midnight, when you just get up in the morning, when you are working in the morning, or when you have lunch at noon,... The world to the heads of states, the president. The king, the prime minister, and the common people did not sleep all night, stopped their work, the food on the table was cold, ..., everyone was watching 'Little Apophis' dragging A long white tail flame pierced the sky and was about to hit the earth. …

Many people silently approached the church to pray,  …

Many people raised their heads and stared at the sky, which was very blue. The sky is clear,...  

Many people hid in the basement, air defense, and the basement was full of water, food, 'snatched' from the supermarket,  …

The air defense systems of countries around the world have been upgraded to the highest alert level. Even in the dark, the soldiers are still at the sending post, ......, waiting for the sending order at any time.

You must know, in case, the prophecy on the prophecy slate is not prepared. Now, the meteorite is at an altitude of thousands of kilometers, the flight speed and the flight angle are constantly changing, and no one can calculate where the meteorite will eventually land... ..., and in case the Americans fail to intercept and miss, at an altitude of thousands of miles, if they miss a little bit, they will miss it by an inch, and even if they miss half an angle, the meteorite will land. The location is no longer the waters near the Flore Islands, but the African continent. If it is 2 or 3 degrees off, it is already Asia, Russia, and even the continental United States.

In the command hall, everyone secretly recited the countdown to the launch of the missile, ..., everyone was expressionless, and their faces were frozen to the point of wringing out water, ..., saying no nervous , that must be a lie.

President Cleveland's hands were clenched white.

The Minister of Defense pursed his mouth tightly, revealing the wrinkles on his chin.

Several four-star generals and Samsung lieutenants also stared at the display screen without blinking.

American West, Mojave Desert.

This desert covers an area of ​​more than 57,000 square kilometers, most of which is located in southeastern Southern California, and also spans Utah, southern Nevada and northwestern Arizona.

The vast Mojave Desert has become one of the most popular tourist attractions in North America, and its beauty and pristine features are popular with tourists,..., America's colorful national parks and well-known protected areas are located in it,  …

At this time, in the Mojave Desert in Nevada, the missile launch base.

A huge firework rose into the sky, and in the dark night sky, it was particularly dazzling,......

So much so that some residents of Nevada and some states near Nevada can see the dazzling flames in the night sky,...

The interceptor missiles went out, carrying the warheads of the high-explosive shells.

Reconnaissance satellites from all over the world locked the missile for the first time.

The missile flew in the night sky at a supersonic speed of more than 7 kilometers per second. In the night sky, it crossed a curved flame and flew in the direction of the Atlantic Ocean, targeting the 'Little Apophis' meteorite.

The missile was launched from the missile launch base in the Mojave Desert in Nevada. In the night sky, a dazzling flame was drawn in a curved line. The missile flew at high speed in the night sky and passed through Utah, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri and other states along the way. The people watched the flames of the missiles in the sky.... Americans all knew that this was a missile that flew towards the 'Little Apophis' meteorite. Many people took out their mobile phones to take pictures, and the media also Come join in the fun,  …

The missile flew for 47 seconds in the night sky.

Residents of a country whose jet lag is in the dark saw a dazzling burst of light in the night sky.

The missile hit the 'Little Apophis' meteorite.

The huge impact force generated at the moment of the explosion of the high-explosive warhead carried by the missile reacted on the 'Little Apophis' meteorite, which successfully changed the flight trajectory of the 'Little Apophis', which had burned from more than 80,000 tons to more than 50,000 tons. , ......

As for whether the flight trajectory of 'Little Apophis' was changed under the control of the NASA command hall, ..., it is unknown.

"Larry, report the situation." Dave Burek asked immediately.

"The missile hit the 'Little Apophis' meteorite at a vertical angle of 37 degrees, a precise hit,..." Larry took off his headset and said.

37 degrees vertical!

Accurate hit! !

"Yeood!!" Dave Burrek exclaimed excitedly.

The audience also became excited, high-fiving each other, cheering, and even the President of Cleveland, the Vice President, the Secretary of Defense, the Senate, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, and several generals all showed excited expressions, always rigid and unsmiling. , The Secretary of the Navy known as 'Silent Harding', Harding Claus also showed an excited expression, and his mouth curved an arc.

......

"Listen, everyone, don't be too busy to be happy, our business is not over yet, now, it's time for us to destroy this damn meteorite and let it be buried in the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean." Dave Burek said loudly. , then turned to Larry and said, "Larry, continue to report the current situation of the meteorite."

"..., successfully changed the flight trajectory of 'Little Apophis', under our control, ..., the instantaneous reverse thrust generated by the missile explosion effectively slowed down the meteorite's flight speed, …

Now, the flight speed of the meteorite is 13.7 km/s, the flight angle is 64.2 degrees,  …. (To be continued.)
