Spark

At this time, Chen Nian was still enjoying his holiday time. He didn't know that Huaxia's radar system would face the biggest test in decades.

But by coincidence, during the process of technical deduction, he had already anticipated such a risk, and had even started a discussion with Chen Guo.

Walking on the beach of Wuzhizhou Island, Chen Nian casually kicked a conch he pulled out, and said to Chen Guo:

".So future wars must be dominated by electronic warfare."

"Weapons that can be called dimensionality reduction strikes have appeared several times in human history, from the first stone tools, to later iron weapons, to heavy crossbows, to artillery, and then to nuclear bombs."

"Every time such a weapon appears, it will bring huge changes to the world pattern."

"But as the technology proliferates and checks and balances, the usefulness of these weapons will gradually wear off."

"And now, even including nuclear bombs, its original 'dimension reduction strike' power has gradually decreased."

"All countries are desperately looking for the next breakthrough point, and in my opinion, this breakthrough point is radar and electronic systems."

Chen Guo was holding a coconut in her hand, wearing a floral shirt and a straw hat on her head.

This is in great contrast to his identity as a top research scholar and executive team leader of the Spark Group, but what he said undoubtedly showed his level.

"Yes, this is also the judgment of most scholars in the military field at present."

"In fact, in the field of electronic warfare, especially in the field of radar, the competition among major powers has been around for a long time."

"We used to call it the 'Railgun Race.'"

"In the beginning, the radar only needs to emit the simplest electromagnetic waves, and then determine the target position based on the echoes."

"But this technology is too simple, and opponents quickly figured out how to deal with it."

"I just need to find an antenna, measure your electromagnetic wavelength, and then actively launch electromagnetic waves of the same wavelength in the direction of the radar. I can block the receiver with the signal and completely blind the radar."

"It's like."

Chen Guo couldn't find a suitable metaphor for a while, so Chen Nian said for him:

"Throw a flash."

"That's right! Or more appropriately, it should be the continuous glare to the eyes."

"So to avoid that, the radar technology is updated one at a time."

"First came the radar with variable wavelength, followed by the pulse radar that regularly emits high-frequency radar waves, and then came the phased array radar formed by superimposing hundreds of small radars, and then the phase shifter we are using now. , a purely digitally synthesized digital array radar."

"In the final analysis, these leaps in radar technology are all for the same goal: to avoid enemy identification and interference, and to enhance detection capabilities."

"Of course, most of the technical investment is still in the direction of anti-jamming."

"Now your idea is to create a more advanced electronic warfare system that can interfere with all existing radars in the full frequency band. The technical difficulty involved will be even more difficult than continuing to develop a new generation of radars."

"However, if it can really be done, then in the field of electronic warfare, we are likely to occupy a relatively 'dominant' position for a long time."

Hearing his words, Chen Nian nodded slightly.

In fact, the so-called new electronic warfare system is not his personal idea.

In the previous life, Lao Mei had developed an ARES system named after the "God of War" Ares.

The power of this system is astonishing. After identifying the radar wave, it can directly inject a large number of interference signals from the side lobe of the radar, causing the radar to misjudge and lure other enemy radars to turn on, thereby exposing the pulse characteristics of all radars and the location of the radar.

However, at the time when Chen Nian traveled over, Lao Mei hadn't used this system in actual combat.

It's not because the technology is not up to standard, but because the technology has surpassed the times too much.

As early as 1982, they used the ALX-99 on EF-18G to achieve a comprehensive interference with Syria, and grasped the position of the opponent's position in a very short period of time.

After the information was sent back to the E-2C early warning aircraft, hundreds of fighter jets took off with anti-radiation missiles. In just 6 minutes, all the radar positions that Syria had worked hard for decades were completely destroyed.

...

Now, with the blessing of the technology provided by Chen Nian, Huaxia's radar technology is progressing faster.

It should be said that it should be impossible to interfere with the Huaxia radar again.

What we have to do is to find a way to interfere with others.

After thinking for a while, Chen Nian said:

"Now that there is a digital array radar, and the electronic jamming pod has been iterated for two generations, the conditions for us to develop the next generation of electronic jamming equipment are ripe."

"I suggest sending a task to the 14th institute as soon as possible so that they can start organizing the development of electronic jamming pods."

"Strive to come up with a set of equipment that can meet the application requirements within a few months."

"This will not only ensure the leading edge of technology, but also allow us to have more means available for overseas operations."

"clear."

Chen Guo nodded and replied:

"I will arrange it after I go back today. The technology accumulation at the 14th Institute has already been accumulated, so the problem should not be too big."

"Okay, let's do it as soon as possible."

Chen Nian answered briefly, without any fluctuation in the expression on his face.

The new electronic jamming equipment is only the first step. In fact, if we want to establish an absolute advantage in the field of electronic warfare, we still have to rely on intelligence.

Perhaps, the project of quantum computing should be put on the agenda as soon as possible

On the other hand, the Jiangnan Shipyard completed the outfitting work of the 055 ship at an unprecedented speed.

In just over two months, this huge 10,000-ton ship has evolved from a "broken version" when it was first launched to a complete body.

All the equipment has been installed, all the electronic systems have been adjusted in place, and the mooring experiment has passed smoothly. The next step is to officially conduct sea trials.

On April 23, the day of the Navy's Army Day, 055 officially sailed out of the port, ready to start a two-month sea trial.

The main engine was turned on for the first time, and the comprehensive electrical system was successfully started. The Jiujiang ship, which had not yet been registered with the hull number, split the waves and drove forward all the way.

In the bridge command room of the Jiujiang ship, Zhou Minghui stared at the display screen, afraid that an alarm message would pop up from somewhere.

However, what he feared did not happen.

One by one, they are all reports that the self-inspection has been completed and everything is normal.

"The radar system power-on self-test is complete, and everything is normal."

"The power system is normal."

"The weapon system is normal, and the fire control radar is working normally."

"Fire self-inspection completed, normal."

"The communication is normal, and the data link is normal."

After nearly two hours of self-inspection, all systems were working normally, and Zhou Minghui was finally relieved.

In fact, the past two months can be said to be the most stressful two months in his life.

He not only hoped that 055 would complete the outfitting and launch the sea trial soon, but also worried that too fast would lead to work mistakes, which would affect the performance of the ship's first sea trial.

Therefore, he went to the pier almost every day to have a look, even if he didn't know much about technology, he still had to chat with Wen Xingdong to learn about the latest developments.

Well now, he finally boarded the ship and finally sailed to sea.

Next, as long as all sea test subjects can be successfully completed, this Republic's sea blade can really be used on the battlefield.

Thinking of this, he breathed a sigh of relief, then turned to the engineer accompanying the team, and asked:

"All the self-inspections have been completed, is there any problem on your side?"

"no problem."

The engineer shook his head and replied:

"The system works well, the engine works stably, and the data feedback of each module is normal."

"It should be said that the preparations for today's test subjects have been done."

"The next step is to wait for the notification. After the airspace is cleared, we can start the radar work test."

Zhou Minghui nodded. As an experienced navy man who has experienced no less than five sea trials, he is actually very familiar with this set of sea trial procedures.

The reason for conducting the radar test after confirming the airspace is clear, in the final analysis, is to protect 055 and prevent its radar signature from leaking.

This preparatory work generally does not take long. After all, the Jiujiang ship is still within the territorial waters of China at this time, and basically there will be no unsightly flying objects breaking into the designated exercise area at this time. Navy brows.

So, he also relaxed a little, and quietly waited for the orders from his superiors.

However, things seem to be a little different today.

After waiting for a full twenty minutes, the notification of the airspace clearance has not yet come.

Zhou Minghui couldn't wait any longer, so he directly picked up the communicator and called the headquarters.

"I am the Jiujiang ship. The self-inspection work has been completed, and my ship is ready. Please instruct me whether to conduct a radar work test!"

After a brief noise, the command's answer came from the communicator.

"Please maintain the current battle position and continue to wait for instructions, over."

"Understood, maintain the current battle position, and continue to wait for instructions. Do you want to conduct a sea maneuver test first? Please instruct."

"Agreed to conduct sea maneuvering test, keep radar off, over."

"Understood, keep the radar off."

Zhou Minghui put down the communicator with a puzzled face. He vaguely realized that something seemed to happen, but he couldn't figure out what happened for the time being.

However, since the headquarters did not terminate the sea trial process, it means that the problem should not be too big.

If the radar cannot be tested, the power system should be tested first.

Anyway, the entire sea trial process is very long, and it does not necessarily have to follow a fixed order.

As a result, Zhou Minghui pushed the joystick and issued instructions, and the speed of the Jiujiang ship suddenly increased, and it began to perform various high-speed maneuvers with astonishing intensity on the sea.

During this process, the engineers accompanying the team constantly monitored the working status of the giant ship, for fear that the load would exceed the safe range.

But in fact, with the support of two AGT110 gas turbines and the most advanced all-electric drive system, even at full speed, the overall load of the ship is only 30%.

In other words, in a state of high mobility, the load of the Jiujiang ship can still support the use of all other equipment and weapons on the ship, and it is more than enough.

Seeing this result, Zhou Minghui couldn't help showing a satisfied smile on his face.

However, what he didn't know was that the faces of most people in the land command center at this time were somewhat serious.

"Have you checked it out? Is it a radar system failure, or electromagnetic interference?"

A man stood in the center of the headquarters and asked the soldier in front of him.

The latter pointed to the large command screen and replied very fast:

"The various locations have been contacted and it has been determined that they have been subjected to the same disturbance."

"In addition, the northern region has also received early warning information."

"At present, we have ordered two KJ-500s to take off and four J-22 escorts. According to the data link information fed back by KJ-500, the latest model of airborne digital array radar has not detected any abnormal intrusion targets. "

"At the same time, Lingnan also reported that they had not received an early warning, but they confirmed that they had received electromagnetic interference."

"They completed most of the radar system refitting in August last year, using the latest type of radar with strong anti-jamming capabilities."

"Based on the current situation, the early warning should be caused by the enemy's active electromagnetic interference."

"Currently, all combat units are ready and ready to enter combat readiness at any time, please instruct!"

After listening to his words, the man nodded solemnly.

Just half an hour ago, a part of the radars in his military region recognized a large number of abnormal targets and immediately issued an early warning.

Logically speaking, in such an emergency, the entire military region should immediately enter a state of combat readiness.

But with his rich experience, he immediately judged that this matter was unusual.

Therefore, he did not execute combat preparations immediately, but called up the results of different types of radars in all other areas for comparison.

And this comparison really made him grasp the flaw.

There is no such thing as "hundreds of planes coming", just a lot of disorganized interference electromagnetic waves!

The man's heart couldn't help but surge with rage.

Fucked us in 1994, Fucked us in 2001, Fucked us in 2003, now it's fucking 2007, you guys still want to Fuck us?

dream!

Times have long since changed!

Since you want to provoke, you should bear the consequences of the provocation yourself!

He took a deep breath and gave the order.

"KJ-500 continues to move forward, scan the entire airspace, and catch those rats!"

"Jiujiang continues to perform sea trial missions!"

"Don't they just want to show us off? I want to see who can stop us!"
