The rise of great powers: starting from military industry

On the Red Sea.

Several Pruss-class guided missile destroyers and Ticonderoga-class cruisers were busy the moment the sun jumped out of the sea level.

In the air, there was an early warning aircraft flying.

"Launch preparation!"

The commander issued an order.

The radar locked onto targets one by one, which were all important military targets.

The combat units were inputting the coordinates of the targets to be hit.

For each warship, the command center input the target coordinate parameters into the guidance parts of each missile in the missile launch cabin through a computer.

These data come from the coordinates transmitted by the military satellite in the air. With the global satellite positioning system, the latitude and longitude can be used to accurately determine the exact location of the target.

In this way, the experimental process is accurate. The target is hit by GPS guidance with an accuracy range of 5 to 10 meters.

What is the specific actual combat effect?

That is not clear!

Because this time, it is also the first actual combat of the GPS-guided target combat method.

When all the targets have been determined, the fleet commander looked at the time and gave the order in a deep voice: "Launch immediately!"

"Boom~Boom~Boom~~"

On the rear deck of the warship, the hatch of the vertical launch unit opened.

The missile inside slowly rose into the air accompanied by a cloud of white mist.

The fuel of the rocket engine at the tail of the missile burned violently, producing a huge roar, and at the same time, there was even denser white smoke.

Above several warships, the Tomahawk missile slowly rose into the air, and then the speed became faster and faster, dragging thick white smoke, which was extremely spectacular.

This scene, through war correspondents, will soon appear on TV stations and be reported and watched by the world.

At the same time, on the sea surface of the Persian Gulf, US warships are also preparing.

Everyone is busy.

Then as the commander issued the launch order, missiles were launched one by one.

Not only the surface warships, but also the two attack nuclear submarines hidden under the calm sea surface were also extremely busy inside.

The commander listened to the staff constantly reporting various data.

The combat personnel were quickly entering the location parameters of the target with a serious face.

"Ready!"

"Launch!"

Then we saw missiles being launched from the sea, flying out of the water, igniting and quickly flying into the air, heading towards Iraq.

In the direction of the Mediterranean Sea, there were also ten destroyers and cruisers, and the soldiers on the warships were also preparing for battle.

The missile strike on Iraq from the Mediterranean Sea was only 500 to 1,500 kilometers away, which was completely within the range of the Tomahawk cruise missile.

The commander looked at the time, waited until the scheduled time, and issued an order.

"Launch!"

The cover of the warship's magazine on the sea surface opened, and the missile slowly rose from it, with thick white smoke spraying from the tail, and finally turned in the sky and flew towards Iraq.

The three nuclear submarines under the sea also opened the back launch hatch, and several missiles popped out from it.

These missiles, in the sea water, the fuel propellant in the tail engine burned violently, causing a lot of water vapor to rise around the missiles.

When the missiles came out of the water, a lot of sea water was brought up.

Like the missiles launched by warships, these missiles trailed thick white smoke at their tails, chasing after the missiles that had become a group of small dots in the air, leaving only white smoke trails.

The early warning aircraft in the air, with various equipment working, recorded the different flight trajectories and various parameters of the missiles launched from the warships.

In a farther place, two electronic reconnaissance aircraft were also working.

Whether it was an early warning aircraft or an electronic reconnaissance aircraft, the purpose of their existence was to ensure that the flight trajectories of the missiles launched were consistent with the original preset, and to continuously transmit data to the guidance system of the missiles flying to Iraq.

The cruise missiles in flight modified the deviated trajectory values ​​through these continuously transmitted data to ensure that they would not deviate from the flight trajectory during the entire process.

The images of the US military's attack on Iraq were constantly transmitted to the world.

The focus of the world now is on the Gulf War.

Everyone is discussing whether the coalition with the US military as the core can win and how many days the war will last.

The new tactics adopted by the US military this time were eye-catching from the first moment of the outbreak of the war.

Before this, the mode of war was mainly ground warfare, with missile troops and air forces as auxiliary forces, in order to cooperate with ground troops in combat.

But this time, the United States carried out strategic bombing through a large number of missile attacks, which changed the past war mode.

You should know that many planes took off this time, not for air combat to gain air superiority, but to approach the target and destroy the target through air-to-ground missiles.

It can be said that these are very necessary for people to study.

For example, at this time, the National Defense University is organizing research.

There are military observation groups, and there are military observation groups on both sides. In this regard, first-hand information can always be obtained relatively quickly.

Various new weapons are also constantly coming into view.

The National Defense University was established in 1985 to adapt to the strategic transformation of the guiding ideology of military construction. The Military Academy, Political Academy, and Logistics Academy were merged to form the National Defense University.

The research strength here is still very strong.

"This F117 fighter has a strong stealth, and stealth will be an important direction for the development of military aircraft in the future." The researcher in the fighter direction said in a deep voice.

When the U.S. Air Force first unveiled the F117, this aircraft entered the attention of the Chinese military.

The Chinese Air Force once tried to inquire about the price from the United States and wanted to buy a few aircraft for research, but was decisively rejected.

Even the United States has done a very good job of keeping the F117 confidential. Until now, there has been no news about the specific performance of this aircraft.

When the two air forces communicated, the F117 fighter jets were kept highly confidential and could not even take a look.

This time an F117 fighter jet blew up the Iraqi defense building, which can be said to be shocking.

"Not only F117 fighter jets, but also precision-guided weapons such as guided bombs and guided missiles will also be an important direction for future development!" Weapons researchers are focusing on precision-guided weapons.

This time, the Americans still achieved considerable results through precision-guided weapons.

"In terms of guided weapons, our Panshan Group has also made great efforts in this area, and it is not bad. In the past, we had a skeptical attitude towards precision guided weapons and did not pay enough attention. We must pay more attention to this aspect in the future!" said a researcher. "Our global satellite navigation system is the most advanced in the world, even more advanced than the American GPS navigation system!"

"We don't pay enough attention to the air defense missile system. From the Americans' tactics this time, we can see that air defense capabilities will be extremely important in the future. If the air defense capabilities are not enough, then facing missiles and aircraft, we will have to Get beaten! We need more "Aegis" air defense missile systems, short-range air defense missile systems, medium-range air defense missile systems, and long-range air defense missile systems! "Researchers in the field of air defense have focused on air defense capabilities.
