Alien Arms Empire

In the aircraft carrier command room of the Tang Empire, Sun Guang saw the integrated command system for the first time. On a huge transparent panel perpendicular to the ground, various circles and points were marked with a highlighter.

The commander in charge of the introduction pointed at two points and explained: "What is marked here is the location of the two early warning aircraft we sent out. They are currently patrolling at an altitude of 110 meters, 8000 kilometers away from the fleet..."

As he spoke, he circled two more huge circles: "These two circles are their detection ranges... Now these areas are theoretically transparent to us."

With the support of early warning aircraft, the Tang Empire's navy was very comprehensive in collecting surrounding intelligence. In fact, the fleet only flies one early warning aircraft on weekdays. This time, it was to protect Sun Guang and approached the coastline of Dorne. The alert level was naturally raised, so the two early warning aircraft were dispatched together, which seemed to be very powerful.

After finishing speaking, the commander pointed to another marked dot: "What is marked here are our carrier-based fighter jets. They are patrolling. If a target appears, they will rush over to intercept it as soon as possible."

Relying on the ultra-high speed of the Phantom fighter jets, the air defense of the Tang fleet is very robust. Similarly, because the opponent's fleet cannot get close to Tang's aircraft carrier fleet, the patrol areas of these Phantom fighter jets are actually very targeted.

They do not need to fly around the entire fleet as in the past, but can only fly between the aircraft carrier and the Dorne coastline, so that fewer sorties can be used to ensure the density and thickness of patrols.

As for the anti-aircraft missiles carried by the destroyers in the fleet in other directions, there will be no problem.

Pointing to a prominent small mark in front of the fleet, the navy commander continued to say to Sun Guang: "And this one is our helicopter. It is responsible for searching for enemy submarines in the direction of the fleet... As for why there are Directly ahead, because the fleet maintains a speed of more than 10 knots, no submarine can catch up with us and launch an attack."

The significance of the existence of nuclear submarines is to chase the enemy fleet at full speed when necessary, because nuclear-powered submarines can reach terrifying speeds of more than 20 knots underwater.

Once your opponent is able to engage in nuclear submarine operations, the basic tactic of avoiding enemy submarines while the fleet maintains a high speed becomes ineffective.

Therefore, in order to ensure safety, we cannot just drive away enemy submarines in the direction of the fleet. The fleet's anti-submarine warfare strength must be greatly increased, which will affect the fleet's route and combat capabilities.

Therefore, as long as a nuclear submarine is put into actual combat, its speed can force the enemy fleet to make many unnecessary operations. This is where the value of nuclear submarines lies.

There is no country in the world that can manufacture nuclear submarines, so the fleet's anti-submarine missions are relatively few.

Conventional submarines cannot guarantee an underwater speed of 20 knots by relying on batteries unless they expose their own diesel air pipes.

But once the air pipe is exposed, the early warning aircraft will immediately detect the exposed submarine, and the fleet's anti-submarine aircraft and anti-submarine destroyers will be able to kill the submarine's face.

"Our fleet looks more spread out than the traditional fleet. This is because our warships are more effective in combat..." Then, the officer pointed to the marks drawn with long willow leaves and said: "They can detect the airspace and sea areas where the entire fleet is located, and as soon as a ship approaches, they can fire and sink it immediately."

This is the most powerful fleet in the world. Anyone who can command such a fleet is proud. You can hear the pride of this Tang officer from his words. Sun Guang looked at the circles marked on the transparent map with envy and asked, "Are these circles the detection range of your radar?"

"Yes." The officer nodded in response to Sun Guang's question.

Sun Guang, who had experienced the destruction of the United Fleet, finally understood why Mike Ravel had not found any trace of the enemy from beginning to end.

The performance of the opponent's carrier-based aircraft is much more powerful than expected, and the opponent's fleet is more advanced and powerful than expected. In such a situation, all judgments will be wrong, and all common sense will become the cause of wrong decisions.

He murmured in a low voice, thoughtfully: "No wonder... no wonder we can't find your fleet outside Qingluan Port! The planes we sent out... can't get close to your fleet at all, right?"

"That's right." The naval officer smiled and nodded. That naval battle still impressed him as a participant. The other party was like a child being played with by adults, but in the end he failed to organize a decent counterattack.

Ten aircraft carriers, seven hundred aircraft, thousands of pilots, and tens of thousands of naval officers and soldiers were not able to see their opponents before the entire army was annihilated.

With a victorious smile on his face, the Tang officer continued to explain: "But in fact, if it is just to intercept your reconnaissance aircraft, a smart commander can still fly a large number of aircraft at the same time, and then use the losses to estimate the approximate strength of our fleet. Location."

"So what really makes you blind is this... the Prowler electronic combat aircraft. It can use high-intensity electromagnetic interference to block a large number of your communications, completely paralyzing communications in this area." He said while pointing. Refers to a dark spot closer to the Dornish coastline.

Hearing what the other party said, Sun Guang took a breath, and then asked with some incomprehension: "Hey... I see! You actually have such a terrifying aircraft! But if you do this, how will your communications be affected?" Wasn’t he also paralyzed?”

"We use higher frequency band communications, and the radar band is also higher, so we ourselves are not affected." The navy commander is not a relevant technical officer, so he can only give a brief explanation.

But just these two sentences shocked Sun Guang: "It's amazing! It's amazing! The entire battlefield is almost transparent to you. You know everything you want to know, but the entire battlefield is invisible to us. It’s pitch black and we don’t know where you are or even what you have.”

"It's 'us' now." Said the naval officer in a crisp white military uniform.

Sun Guang did not reject his new identity and role, but he just sighed with emotion: "I feel that I have a lot to learn... you have too many mysterious things, and I understand almost nothing now."

The officer smiled and comforted his future comrades: "Don't worry, you can see more here. The more you see, the more you will understand. At least, other Naval Academy students have never seen this before they graduated. A real aircraft carrier.”
