Spark

At the beginning, the launch of the 055 large drive did not cause much sensation.

Because the outfitting has not been completed, the combat effectiveness of this ship has not been fully demonstrated.

But soon, as batch after batch of pictures flowed out, all the spectators including Lao Mei couldn't calm down anymore.

On the largest military online forum in China, a post that was posted in less than two hours ignited the entire public opinion about 055.

The title of the post is a typical shocking style. At first glance, I thought it was some kind of media that was deliberately pacing, but after clicking in and reading the content, everyone realized that it was really shocking.

"Fuck! The anti-ship missile on the 055 is actually DF-21!"

The title only has this sentence, and the content is a few news pictures from nowhere.

In the corner of those news pictures, several missiles that were covered by cloth and had not yet been loaded were exposed.

The author analyzed the model of the missile in a reasonable manner, through the length, coating, and vehicle, and after comparing it with the photos of the past DF-21, he came to this amazing conclusion.

At first, netizens didn't believe it.

"I'm afraid the host is stunned. Is it that easy to get on board the DF-21? Not to mention the modification of the projectile body, the vertical launch system alone can't handle it!"

"Indeed, our vertical hair technology has always been quite backward. Before, we still used oblique launch, and now it is the first time for large-scale vertical hair. It should not be so radical."

"You have to know that the difficulty of launching DF-21 is not comparable to that of ordinary low-speed ship-borne missiles. This thing is a hypersonic missile. The tail flame alone can burn the vertical shaft, right?"

"That's not the case. The current technology is not what it used to be, but of course, I don't believe it when you say it's a DF-21. It may be a new type of Eagle Strike series missile. Maybe it just looks like it."

"Eagle Strike series? It won't be Eagle Strike-21, right?"

"Isn't that still DF-21?"

Everyone laughed at the term "Eagle Strike-21", thinking that it was just a meaningless stalk played by netizens.

However, not long after, a report about the progress of 055's outfitting immediately silenced everyone.

"Eagle Strike-21 has successfully boarded the ship, and the 055's anti-ship capability has made a big leap!"

Netizens stared dumbfounded at the picture released by the news. There is no doubt that it was the missile covered by cloth.

And, what is even more outrageous is that not only the so-called Eagle Strike-21, but also other missiles that are about to board the ship are mentioned in the report, even including the Haihongqi-29 anti-ballistic missile.

In contrast, the most inconspicuous of the 055 shipborne missile family has become the Eagle-18

This thing is just a bit of a legend!

With a range of 600 kilometers and a penetration speed of more than Mach 3 at the end, this is already the existence of the world's ship-borne missiles, and now it is a younger brother in front of the Eagle-21

"Damn it. It's really too strong. All the DF-21s are on board. Why don't you give the Burke class a living?"

"Mother, the Aegis system is completely disabled, can the current Aegis protect against DF-21?"

"Don't talk about it, let alone the Eagle Strike-21, even the Eagle Strike-18 may not be able to defend against it"

"What are you doing, why did we suddenly become the strongest on the water? Haihongqi-29, Haihongqi-26, Haihongqi-10E—isn't E an export model?"

"Not necessarily. The E may also be a self-use type. The naming rules are a bit confusing on this point. But it doesn't matter. The Trinity full-airspace defense, plus the new close-in defense gun, who else can break the defense?"

"Then look at the radar. If the radar can keep up, there is basically no suspense that Blue Star is the strongest."

The conversation quickly turned to radar, but this time, the answer wasn't even needed for an official report.

"Already have an integrated mast, can there be problems with the radar? Besides, the speed of our radar development in the past few years can be said to be obvious to all. How long has the digital array radar been out, and there will be no problems at all."

"Indeed, it depends on whether you have the anti-hidden ability."

"Don't read it, gossip, 055 will have a resonance anti-obscure radar."

"Where did the news come from? Is it classified?"

"...No secrets involved, I went to the 14th institute to see it myself, they released the results display. They have all these things, 055 will not use it? I don't believe it."

"Indeed. What to do, 055 is going to become a Star Destroyer!"

"Quickly pull it down, don't blow it—wait a minute, do you remember the pawn push before? 055 beat the brave class, and lost that time."

"Is there a boss who will do another push? Let's see how it turns out."

As soon as this request was issued, netizens who had resources in their hands immediately took action.

Within a day, the most convincing Bingtui results appeared on the Internet.

The specific results can be said to be unexpected or expected.

It was still 055 vs. brave, and it was still 12 vs. 12. However, this time, the brave didn't have a chance to fire at all.

With the early warning aircraft of both sides present at the same time, at a distance of 500 kilometers, 12 055 ships used 12 Eagle Strike-21s to directly send the Bravery class into the sky.

They did spot 055 as well, but just out of reach.

As a result, the testers halved the number of 055s to six.

But the Bravery still couldn't get close. Even though Ziyuan was flying all over the sky, only one Eagle Strike-21 was intercepted, and the distance between the two fleets was shortened by less than 20 kilometers.

In the end, the number of DF-21s was limited to 3 rounds per ship, and there was only one 055, and 12 Bravery-class ships finally broke into the attack range.

However, in the face of the trinity air defense system of far, middle and near, the saturation strike of the Bravery level is just like a joke.

Yingji-18 named the location one by one, and the electromagnetic gun opened fire slowly.

Although at a distance of more than 200 kilometers, the electromagnetic gun has to hit the warship that is constantly moving, and the hit rate is already impressively low, but this thing highlights a large volume and full control.

1 in 15 rounds on average, but one shot can take away a brave class.

Enemies are gone before the rails even heat up

Seeing the results of the deduction, someone suddenly posted a link in the post.

The content of the link is a question post that says:

"What should you do if your destroyer runs out of ammunition?"

Originally, everyone in this post was laughing at the ignorance of the poster. You know, if a ship can really burn out all the ammunition and not be destroyed, then this ship can definitely be called the God of War in the literal sense.

Everyone just took this post as a joke, but ridiculously, now the joke has come true.

There is only one way to destroy 055 for warships in active service in the world, and that is:

Use yourself as cannon fodder to consume all the ammunition of 055

"I'm confused, how reliable is this thing? I mean the results of this military push."

"How reliable is it? Even if it's only 10%, then he is invincible. Multiplying positive infinity by any ratio is still positive infinity!"

"This thing is an absolute defense against the current ship-borne missiles. Unless it is a land-based ballistic missile, it is possible to penetrate the defense!"

"Wait a minute, why don't you discuss electromagnetic guns, the performance of electromagnetic guns is amazing!"

"It's been discussed before when you hit the monkey, it's out of date"

"So like the new and dislike the old?!"

"It's not that we like the new and dislike the old, the main reason is that there are too many new sisters."

The Chinese Internet is full of jubilation, but looking at other forums, the situation is completely opposite.

Except for Houzi, who was already scared of being beaten, other thorns who have not been beaten have expressed their "opinions" on the Internet.

The most representative of these are Indians.

Their sweet and confident speeches can be said to have left Li Xiang speechless from the beginning to the end.

In the office, Li Xiang pointed at the computer screen dumbfounded, and said to Chen Nian:

"Come on, look at these people, what kind of content are they posting!"

"Where does their self-confidence come from? They don't blush at all when they say such things?"

Chen Nian put down the notebook in his hand and went over to take a look, what caught his eyes was the same type of comments as in the previous life.

"It's only big, and technology will never catch up. What about electromagnetic guns, it's like a child's toy."

"So the rush to develop it is to make others think they have it, but in fact it is very backward. The lighthouse took a lot of time. Although it is slow, it must be the most advanced."

"There is no need to worry about this matchbox. India is the world's largest arms exporter—except, of course, lighthouses."

The comments one by one can be said to show their talent as dogs to the fullest.

Chen Nian shook his head dumbfounded, and said:

"You care about domestic affairs, why do you care about foreign affairs?"

"Aren't these Indians like this? In their eyes, a ship that has been built for more than ten years is a normal operation, and it is a launching ceremony when it catches fire when it is launched."

"Except for Laomei, everyone's things are not easy to use. They are either knockoffs or shoddy."

"When there is a real fight, they won't even know how to make bullets, so they will know the pain."

Hearing Chen Nian's words, Li Xiang raised his eyebrows, pretending to be worried and said:

"Hey, but there are indeed many people who think that India is the future hegemon of East Asia."

"What kind of glorious fighter, Vikrant aircraft carrier, Agni intercontinental missile, etc. In short, it does sound much more high-end than ours."

Chen Nian rolled his eyes and said:

"That also depends on them being able to build it. What about the Brilliant Fighter? An aircraft copied from the Mirage 2000. It's unclear whether it can do better than the J-8 Kai, let alone the J-22 and J-20."

"I really admire them. Being an ostrich can be so peaceful."

"Then what can they do, they have no other way."

Li Xiang put away his teasing look, and suddenly said solemnly:

"Although that is the case, India is still a big threat to us no matter how we look at it."

"Especially in terms of border affairs, the situation in the western plateau is not clear. We may still need one or two deterrent actions to completely clear the obstacles."

Chen Nian nodded silently. In fact, what Li Xiang said was exactly what he was thinking about recently.

After Africa is pacified, India will inevitably become Laomei's next pawn. At that time, how to deal with this pawn will become a matter that has to be considered.

After thinking for a moment, he said:

"The situation over there is still a bit special-a hot war is impossible, they dare not, we don't want to."

"In the next period of time, it is estimated that physical conflicts and cold weapon confrontations will still dominate."

"It's impossible to solve the problem completely, but we can consider arming ourselves so that they cannot attack."

"Isn't it just to fight? Ask Wang Jiancheng to continue modifying his exoskeleton and weld the steel plates on it to form a simple power armor."

"Charge with cold weapons in the front, and guard with hot weapons in the back, let's work together!"

".Is it that simple?"

Li Xiang asked with some doubts.

"Don't worry, it's that simple."

Chen Nian knew the details of those people in India. Although they yelled loudly, they didn't have the guts to fight them.

It is only possible to divert some domestic conflicts by deceiving ourselves and others by creating border frictions.

After all, Brahmins and Kshatriyas are bad, but they are not stupid.

Those Sudras thought they could defeat the J-20 with the Shining Fighter, but they didn't take it seriously.

Seeing Chen Nian's expression, Li Xiang leaned back on the chair in a relaxed manner, and then he said:

"Well, then I don't have to think too much about it."

"Originally, I planned to use the strategy of public opinion to suppress the probability of conflict."

"Now"

Li Xiang smiled mysteriously and said nothing.

But Chen Nian saw his thoughts, so he persuaded:

"Fishing is detrimental to morality, less fishing."

"It's okay, I'm catching foreigners, and the king of Hades in China has nothing to do with it."

After all, he turned around and began to operate on the computer. It didn't take long for a series of reports and comments to appear on the extranet.

It is still Li Xiang's consistent style, well-founded, and the hook is hidden.

"055 blows so much, but it's actually not worth mentioning at all!"

"If you compare the number, the per capita tonnage of Chinese destroyers is even smaller than that of Spain. How can such a navy go out to fight?"

"Compared to Zumwalt, the former seems to come from the world of science fiction, and 055 is shockingly ugly."

"Even without mentioning modern warships, compared with the Yamato, the Yamato has a full-load displacement of 72,810 tons, while the 055 has a full-load displacement of only over 10,000 tons, which is pitifully small."

"The Trident missile carried by the Ohio-class strategic nuclear submarine has a range of more than 8,000km, while the 055's Eagle Strike missile has a range of only 1,500km, and the 055's range is seriously insufficient."

"The Izumo can carry more than a dozen helicopters, while the 055 can only carry a maximum of two, and the air power is far from enough."

"055 does not have any actual combat experience, but in a special military operation in the Middle East, the civilian Boeing 767 achieved an impressive record of thousands of people with only two losses."

"055 is not advanced at all. According to the current public information, this ship is the last one among the radar air defense ships in the whole airspace, and even among the destroyers of the same tonnage, it is the second last one in the world!"
