Flying Leopard, China's new generation fighter-bomber.
The original Spacetime was not equipped with troops until 1996, and became one of the most important sea-to-ground attack aircraft for the mainland, navy and air force in the late 1990s and early 21st century.
But in this world.
Because of Lei Weidong, many things have changed, of course for the better.
First of all, in terms of economy, the original GDP in 1990 was only more than 300 billion US dollars, but this year's GDP was more than 180 billion US dollars, equivalent to 43% of the mainland's.
Wanwan only kills more than 20 million people, but the mainland has a population of 1.1 billion.
An economy of more than 20 million people is close to half of an economy of 1.1 billion people.
You can imagine how poor the mainland was at this time and how short of money the country was.
But in this world, because of Lei Weidong's massive investment, the mainland's economy began to take off in the 1980s. In 1989, the mainland's economy had exceeded 500 billion and was close to 600 billion US dollars.
There is much more money than in the original time and space, and the military expenditure is also much greater. Because of the money, many weapons that were only equipped in the late 1990s were released in advance.
And when the furry bear collapsed.
Because Yuan Shikong had no money, he could only drool at the equipment of Mao Xiong. Flanker, this classic third-generation machine, took several years to be introduced to the mainland through barter.
And now!
Because Lei Weidong was the matchmaker, the first batch of flankers came to the mainland in 1991.
In 1992, not only forty-eight single-seaters, but also twelve double-seaters all arrived and became the backbone of the Air Force. The imported production lines were also dropped in the Northeast. Through assembly, the production of the J-11 began.
Hundreds of thousands of Mao Xiong scientific and technological personnel have also come to the mainland, speeding up the upgrading of weapons and equipment in the mainland.
The J-10, a third-generation aircraft project independently developed by the Mainland, conducted test flights in 1992 with the help of a large number of Mao Xiong technical personnel, and its progress was very fast.
It can be equipped with troops in as little as three years or as little as five years, and fly over the sky of the capital on the 50th anniversary of the National Day.
And Flying Leopard!
To be honest, Lei Weidong is not very optimistic about this project, because the Flying Leopard is targeting two typical Cold War-era fighter-bombers, the Yingjiang F-111 and the Maoxiong Su-24.
Advanced is advanced!
It's a pity that it appeared too late. When the "Flying Leopard" was successfully developed and first equipped with naval aviation, the time had already entered the 1990s. Even with the acceleration of external forces such as Lei Weidong, it was not until the end of 1991 that it was equipped with troops.
At this time, third-generation aircraft with stronger combat capabilities have begun to be equipped in large quantities in various countries around the world, and Feibao's weaknesses have gradually become apparent.
Because the Flying Leopard is a fighter-bomber, its main mission is to carry out precise strikes on the ground and the sea. Although it also has certain air combat capabilities, it is mainly focused on the ground and the sea. Its maneuverability is not inferior to that of the second-generation aircraft. But compared with third-generation aircraft such as the F-15 and F16, it is much worse.
Compared with third-generation aircraft, its air combat capabilities are limited to self-defense. Even if it is upgraded on a large scale and equipped with advanced air-to-air missiles, it is no match for third-generation aircraft.
But as the Qiang 5 ages, multi-purpose fighters like the Su-30 have not yet come out. The Feibao, with a combat radius of 1,650 kilometers, is definitely a trump card in the mainland and a weapon against warships.
After receiving orders from superiors.
Ding Yi, the leader of the Leopard Head Flight equipped with Flying Leopards, and Wang Jun, the deputy commander, immediately boarded the two Flying Leopards parked on the apron and prepared for battle.
soon!
Under the command of the air commander, the two Flying Leopards numbered 01 and 02 soared into the sky and flew into the sky.
At this time, the Eagle Army destroyer did not know that it had entered the territorial waters of the mainland and was still sailing aimlessly on the sea.
Sudden!
A rapid sound came, and two Flying Leopards flew over the Devonshire warship.
"It's a plane from the mainland, they just flew over us!" The experienced captain and first mate looked at each other and issued a warning order.
As the alarm bell rang on the warship, the crew quickly entered combat positions. The captain picked up the microphone and reminded the crew, "Two planes just flew over us.
It was a plane coming from the mainland. I believe they were hostile and the entire crew was in combat mode. "
"It's a warship from the Eagle Army. It looks like the guided-missile destroyer USS Devon. Why did they come here? They have already penetrated deep into our territorial waters."
When the Devonshire flew over the ship, Ding Yi knew clearly what he was facing through the radar. Not daring to be careless, he immediately reported to the base that an Eagle guided missile destroyer had broken into the territorial waters.
At the same time, he was ready for battle.
If the guided missile destroyer USS Devon continues to disobey the advice and continues to break in, once the superior agrees, he will attack it with two Eagle-81k air-to-ship missiles under the belly of the aircraft.
"The Eagle Navy warships below, you have broken into our territorial waters, leave immediately, leave immediately. This is your final warning. If you do not leave, we will attack you."
Ding Yi warned the guided missile destroyer USS Devonshire through the public channel. At the same time, together with the No. 02 Flying Leopard driven by deputy commander Wang Jun, he circled around the guided missile destroyer USS Devonshire and entered combat status.
"Are they crazy? Why are they staring at us?" The captain couldn't help complaining as he looked at the planes circling over the Devonshire.
"The mainland pilots insist that we are only 11 nautical miles away from their coastline and have entered the mainland's territorial waters. They want us to obey their commands, otherwise they will open fire."
The second officer in charge of communications reported to the captain.
"It's 11 nautical miles from the mainland coastline. How is it possible? How can we be so close to the coastline?" The second officer's words made the captain confused. He looked up at the flying leopard in the sky and asked, "What type of aircraft is this? How can we be so close to the coastline?" Is there a threat?"
"According to the radar band and flight speed, it should be the FBC-1, the most advanced twin-engine fighter-bomber in the Mainland, which can carry four air-launched YJ-81K air-to-ship missiles.
Its power is comparable to that of the French Flying Fish. "
The second officer's words made everyone present break into a cold sweat.
Anyone who is an Eagle Navy officer is familiar with the Exocet missile.
The reason is simple: I am afraid of being beaten.
In the Falklands naval battle ten years ago, the Exocet missiles carried by the Argentine Air Force's "Super Etendard" fighter-bombers caused the Eagle Navy to suffer a lot.
A total of four air-to-ship Exocet missiles were launched, three of which hit, sinking the guided-missile destroyer USS Sheffield and the transport ship USS Atlanticer of the Eagle Navy.
HMS Sheffield and HMS Devonshire were guided missile destroyers of the same type. As a result, they were hit by an Exocet missile and sank to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean.
That is to say, Argentina does not equip many Exocet missiles, only four of the air-to-ship type. If there were a few more, the Battle of the Falklands would definitely be the end of the Eagle Navy.
The aircraft currently hovering above the Devonshire can actually carry four Exocet-type air-to-ship missiles. Two aircraft are eight missiles. From such a close distance, the Devonshire will never be able to avoid it as long as it is launched.
It was impossible for anyone present to say that they were not afraid.
"Call back, we are now in international waters and have not entered mainland territorial waters. If they attack, the Imperial Navy will definitely fight back.
Contact the Fleet Commander immediately, we need rescue. "The captain ordered.
"Confirm our position. Are we really not entering inland territorial waters?" While the captain asked for help from the fleet, the first mate came to the crew responsible for navigation and asked loudly.
"No, according to satellite positioning, our location is international waters." The crew member called up the satellite map, zoomed in and said in a confirmed tone.
"Then how could the mainland pilot say that we have intruded into the mainland's territorial waters? With the mainland's style of doing things, we will not cause trouble." Looking at the satellite map that was called up, the first officer was puzzled.
At the same time, Sky Media Group Headquarters in London!
His boss, the media tycoon Carver, looked at the actual location of the Devonshire on the satellite map and smiled.
Everything goes according to plan. If successful, he will be able to achieve a class leap, from a media tycoon to an aristocrat, a truly powerful figure in the country.
"Something is wrong. The Devonshire insists that they are in international waters and have not entered our territorial waters." It was discovered that the Devonshire ignored its own warning and insisted that it was sailing in international waters.
Feeling that something was wrong, Ding Yi asked his superiors if he could fire first.
"Do not fire without an order. Pay attention to alerts, especially anti-aircraft missile attacks. Leave immediately if there is any situation." The base commander also felt that the situation was abnormal. While reporting the situation to his superiors, he ordered Ding Yi and others to calm down and pay attention to their safety.
Just when the Flying Leopard and the Devonshire were confronting each other.
A ghost-like ship painted black rose from the sea and quietly followed the Devonshire.
"The sea drill is ready to launch at any time."
Looking at the Devonshire not far away, the leader in black clothes in the ghost ship heard his subordinates reporting that they were ready for launch, nodded and ordered:
"Turn off the engine and remain silent. Although the radar cannot detect the stealth ship, it can detect the sea drill. The Devonshire cannot be prepared."
"Don't worry, the Devonshire's attention has been attracted by the planes in the sky and will not pay attention to us." Looking at the Devonshire that was gradually approaching, his subordinates said confidently.
"When the plane comes back and launches it, it will make the Devonshire think it is an aerial torpedo launched from the mainland. Then we can fish in troubled waters."
The leader chuckled.
"Don't worry, everything is ready, there will be no problem."
"Very good, you keep an eye here while I report to the boss." The leader nodded and came to the side to report the situation to the boss behind the scenes.
Time passes by minute by minute!
The ghost ship followed the Devonshire like a ghost. The two were very close, only a few hundred meters apart, but the Devonshire just didn't notice it. The radar on the warship seemed to be blind.
Obviously the ghost ship uses black technology, and its stealth technology is more advanced than the beautiful country's B2.
"The plane is coming, let's start!"
Seeing the flying leopard approaching the Devonshire again, the leader issued an attack order.
The sea drill was released from the ghost ship, activated and rushed towards the Devonshire.
"A torpedo was found and is rushing towards us!" The ghost ship can be invisible, but the sea drill cannot. It was discovered by the Devonshire's radar just after it was launched in the sea. However, the monitoring personnel thought it was a torpedo, and the flying leopard dropped it. Air and sea torpedoes.
"The torpedo, was it put down by Feibao? No, it has air-to-ship missiles on it. If it fires, it will attack with missiles. How can it use torpedoes?
This is the 1990s, not World War II. Aircraft-delivered torpedoes have long been behind the times. No one did it twenty years ago. "Looking at the information coming from the radar.
】
The captain was very confused, but apart from the Devonshire, there were only two Flying Leopards flying in the sky. There were no other people and no submarines. The torpedoes could only be launched by the Flying Leopards.
"Can you avoid it?" Seeing the green dot on the radar getting closer and closer, the captain felt something was wrong. The Devon seemed to be plotted and fell into a trap.
"No, the opponent is very fast and will hit him soon." The first mate shook his head, indicating that he could not avoid it.
"boom!"
Unlike a torpedo impact, the sea drill directly split the hull of the Devonshire through high-speed cutting, allowing a large amount of seawater to pour in, which could not be blocked even if it was blocked.
"Something is wrong. The Devon seems to have been attacked. There are torpedoes. Someone fired a torpedo." In the 007 movie, the model of the mainland aircraft was not mentioned, only that it was a MiG.
The only ones that can be called MiGs in the mainland are the J-5, J-6, and the J-7, which is called the ultimate MiG-21.
As a second-generation aircraft, the J-7 is equipped with a small radar due to its airframe. It only has air-to-air combat capabilities and basically zero sea-to-sea capabilities, so it cannot detect sea drills dropped by ghost ships.
But Feibao is different.
As an expert in sea-to-ground attacks, Feibao's radar is very good. Even if it is not as good as Yingjiang's F16 and F15, it is still the best among second-generation aircraft, basically reaching the level of quasi-third-generation aircraft.
At the same time that Sea Diamond launched an attack on the Devonshire, Ding Yi discovered the situation and reminded Wang Jun to pay attention.
"I also discovered that there may be a third party at the scene, but it seems that the one that attacked the Devonshire was not a torpedo, and there was no explosion." Wang Jun nodded and said that he also noticed the situation on the radar.
"Headquarters, headquarters, I am 01, I am 01. The Devonshire has been attacked and is sinking. The coordinates are xx and xx. Please send a rescue ship to rescue.
Note that there may be third parties at the scene, so rescue vessels must be careful. "Looking at the Devonshire sinking slowly, Ding Yi reported the situation to the base.
"Received, the South China Sea Fleet has been contacted, and they will send warships to rescue. Be careful, third-party forces may attack you."
"The crew of the Devonshire began to abandon ship, and we intercepted a telegram from them saying that the Devonshire had been hit by a torpedo fired by aircraft from the mainland."
Inside the ghost ship, looking at the slowly sinking Devonshire, the leader had no expression on his face and said, "Launch a missile at the aircraft in the sky to muddy the water."
"yes!"
Upon hearing the leader's instructions, the crew of the ghost ship left and pressed the launch button.
"I was locked, locked by air defense missiles." As one of the most advanced aircraft in the mainland, Feibao installed a defense system with the help of Mao Xiong.
An alert was issued as soon as the aircraft was locked on radar.
Finding that he was locked, Wang Jun reminded Ding Yi and pressed the interference bomb launch button.
moment,
Dozens of jamming bombs were released!
