Chapter 726: The Great Killer is Born, a -ton Aircraft Carrier is the Target Ship
"Didn't you ask Wanlong?" Xu Dongguo asked subconsciously.
Zhang Zhaoxin said quickly: "Report to the commander, I have already asked him, he doesn't know either, he just said that this was an order from Commander Su himself."
"By the way, he also seemed to have hinted that this involved the latest secret weapon developed by the Navy's integrated weapons factory."
The secret weapon?
Suddenly, Liu Huaming and others' hearts skipped a beat, and they all had expressions of horror.
They really couldn't figure out what kind of secret weapon it was that required the enemy's aircraft carrier to be used as a test target ship?
Could it be that it is no longer limited to attacking warships, but has it leapt to attacking aircraft carriers?
Then, Zhang Zhaoxin spoke again: "Reporting to the commander, Captain Wan also revealed that not long ago, Commander Su sent him to the Pangu Research Base to invite the core researchers in the Missile Research Institute to go to the integrated military factory."
"As for the purpose of this trip, Battalion Commander Wan did not disclose it because he did not know either."
After these words were spoken, Liu Huaming and the others' already frowned brows became even tighter, almost enough to pinch a mosquito to death.
They haven't been to the Navy's integrated military factory for some time, and there has been no definite news from there. As for what Su Dingping is developing recently and what progress he has made, it is really unclear.
Suddenly, Xu Dongguo was shocked and said, "Could it be that Dingping is developing a new anti-ship missile? And this missile has made a breakthrough and has already advanced to the stage of target shooting testing?"
Qian Wenbing took over the conversation and said, "Don't mention it, it's really possible. Previously, he developed a series of missiles with different uses based on the Haihongqi 901B. Didn't it play a big role?"
"Currently, both the army and the air force have been promoted and applied, and have assumed the important task of defending the country. It can be said that Dingping is truly gifted in the field of missile research. There is no missile that he cannot develop."
Qian Wenbing now has no doubts about Su Dingping's abilities. He even feels that the guy's talent in the military industry is on par with Old Qian's. He is truly a pillar of the country!
After the two people's analysis, Liu Huaming was already itching to fly to the Navy Integrated Military Factory immediately to see with his own eyes what the project that was being promoted was like.
"Zhang Zhaoxin, connect me to Ding Ping immediately. I want to talk to him in person."
But he couldn't get away now, so Liu Huaming immediately gave orders to Zhang Zhaoxin.
"Yes, Chief."
Under Zhang Zhaoxin's arrangement, the call was quickly transferred through Wanlong to the Navy Integrated Military Factory and directly into Su Dingping's hands.
It’s not that Zhang Zhaoxin didn’t want to contact Su Dingping directly, but the satellite confidential phone that was personally provided to him was often left in the office, and that guy was often in the laboratory, so it was the same as not having it. In the end, the call still had to be made to Wan Long, asking him to find someone.
When Wan Long handed the phone to Su Dingping, his voice came out of the receiver: "Commander, this is Su Dingping, please speak."
Liu Huaming quickly said, "Dingping, tell me, why do you need the specific coordinates of the aircraft carrier?"
"Commander, I want to test-fire a new type of missile that can hit aircraft carriers." Su Dingping naturally would not hide it and reported truthfully.
"A missile that can hit an aircraft carrier?"
Liu Huaming's mouth twitched violently. Sure enough, he guessed correctly. After glancing at Xu Dongguo, he continued to ask, "What kind of missile needs to use an aircraft carrier as a target ship? Can't we just test it at a land range?"
"Commander, to be honest, this is a new type of ballistic missile developed specifically for attacking aircraft carriers, with a speed exceeding Mach 15."
"I can't test its true power with other ships."
Su Dingping's very calm voice sounded like a sudden thunderclap in the ears of Liu Huaming and others.
A ballistic missile specifically designed to attack aircraft carriers, a project that failed repeatedly during Su Meng's development and had to be abandoned in the end, was developed under Su Dingping's leadership?
The speed exceeded Mach 15. Oh my God, isn’t this too terrifying?
Even the maximum speed of the Thunder Trinity intercontinental ballistic missile that was tested last year was only Mach 13, but this time it exceeded two Mach numbers.
That's equivalent to twice the speed of sound, which is a very terrifying concept.
This is equivalent to directly destroying all the air defense systems on the blue planet. Even the missiles used by the Eagle Tribe’s national missile defense system are probably scrapped!
If such missiles are used to attack aircraft carriers, where will the aircraft carriers run?
Before Liu Huaming and the others could recover from their shock, Su Dingping's voice came from the receiver again: "Commander, the targets on land are fixed, and this missile is specially used to attack ships such as aircraft carriers, which are moving targets."
"Of course, before the attack, the frontline troops need to accurately locate the aircraft carrier, and then the computer will calculate its various possible positions... and make a comprehensive assessment of the attack."
"So, it would be best to have the actual specific coordinates of the aircraft carrier."
After this explanation, Liu Huaming and others finally understood that Su Dingping had really solved the world's difficult problem of using ballistic missiles to hit aircraft carriers.
Oh my god, happiness comes too suddenly.
According to the intelligence provided previously, the Eagle Tribe has several aircraft carriers participating in the battle, plus an aircraft carrier from the East Desert Maritime Self-Defense Force. The two countries' coalition forces have assembled a total of four aircraft carrier battle groups.
This is a big challenge for both the navy and the air force.
Once the test of this ballistic missile capable of hitting aircraft carriers is successful, then in front of them, the nuclear-powered aircraft carriers of the Eagle Tribe that are rampant on the Blue Planet will become living targets and mobile coffins at sea.
"Dingping, tell me, is it a nuclear warhead?" Xu Dongguo felt that his knowledge was limited, so he subconsciously interrupted and asked.
"Commander, this missile does not carry a nuclear warhead. It is a conventional attack, a top-down attack!" Su Dingping said truthfully.
"That's good."
Xu Dongguo immediately breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they did not use nuclear bombs to attack aircraft carriers, there would be no nuclear war. Moreover, they could openly announce to the outside world that the Longxia tribe had mastered ballistic missiles to attack aircraft carriers.
Undoubtedly, this was a great deterrent to the Eagle Tribe's aircraft carrier, making them dare not act rashly.
As for nuclear weapons, they are naturally the trump card that makes them dare to turn the table over. Only by holding back can they achieve the greatest deterrent effect. In fact, it is a strategic weapon that is rarely used.
Almost all nuclear-armed countries on Blue Planet will not easily use nuclear weapons unless it is absolutely necessary, and even the Eagle Tribe is no exception. Otherwise, they would have used them when attacking the Keyi Tribe.
Therefore, Xu Dongguo was really afraid that the ballistic missile developed by Su Dingping would be equipped with a nuclear warhead to carry out surface damage to aircraft carriers. It could sink the aircraft carrier fleet, but it would also bring a serious consequence. The situation would completely get out of control and escalate into a nuclear war.
In fact, it is very simple. If one party uses a nuclear bomb, then the other party will inevitably follow suit.
Dropping a nuclear bomb can indeed cause huge damage, which looks great, but the enemy will also use it, which will make this a war with no winners, which is not what they want to see.
In fact, they all knew that the Navy's integrated military factory had received the full support of Mr. Qian, and it would be easy to build ballistic missiles equipped with nuclear warheads to attack aircraft carriers.
Fortunately, Su Dingping did not do so, but a purely conventional ballistic missile. Conventional missiles mean that they can be used at any time, and will not trigger a nuclear war at all, which can control the situation within a certain range.
Moreover, by sinking an aircraft carrier, they could show the coalition forces of the two countries that the Longxia tribe had mastered ballistic missiles specifically designed to attack aircraft carriers.
It can be said that this is a powerful weapon with great tactical and strategic value.
"When do you plan to start the test?" Liu Huaming suppressed his inner excitement and asked seriously.
Su Dingping said: "Commander, after the coordinates are given, proceed within 20 minutes."
"20 minutes? Okay, I'll ask someone to send you the coordinates now." Liu Huaming nodded and made a decision immediately.
After hanging up the phone, Liu Huaming looked at everyone.
"Now you all know that we have mastered the technology to attack aircraft carriers with ballistic missiles. However, if we rashly use ballistic missiles, it may cause panic in other countries on Blue Star. Therefore, we need to make relevant deployments."
"The aircraft carrier of the East Wasteland Tribe is not worthy of our use of this killer weapon. I think the aircraft carrier of the Eagle Tribe is the most suitable."
"Now we should consider how to put this matter on the table and achieve the purpose of the test?"
The use of ballistic missiles will certainly be discovered by the monitoring networks on Blue Planet, which will certainly cause unrest on Blue Planet.
After thinking for a while, Xu Dongguo spoke first: "Commander, let's just find a reason. We have declared war on them anyway."
What kind of excuse could be found to directly push the Eagle Tribe to the forefront? This was undoubtedly another question.
But after thinking about it, they smiled at each other. This was indeed a very good reason.
So Liu Huaming made a decision immediately. He asked his staff officer to bring his satellite phone over and he directly called Xue Shuai.
This was the first time he took the initiative to call Shuai Xue since the war began.
In fact, he could make independent decisions on most matters concerning the Navy, but this matter was of great importance. He had to communicate with Commander Xue and inform him of the situation.
Longxia tribe, inside a building in the Beijing Military Region.
In the quaint office, Xue Shuai, dressed in military uniform, was sitting at his desk, reviewing relevant documents and important intelligence collected from various places.
He paid special attention to the movements in the European waters, but found that although the countries over there had taken some actions, overall it did not exceed expectations and the situation was still under control.
"For now, it's relatively calm and under control. We can at least last for more than eight hours." Xue Shuai put the information down and muttered to himself.
This expedition to the European waters is an attempt for the Longxia tribe. They are currently fighting on two fronts, so they naturally need to proceed step by step. Any wrong step will result in a huge price to pay.
Therefore, he must be very careful!
Needless to say, the pressure is huge and he is always working in a high-intensity state.
At this moment, the phone in front of the desk suddenly rang urgently. Looking at the display screen, it turned out to be a call from Liu Huaming, the top commander of the navy.
"Comrade Hua Ming, what's the matter?"
Xue Shuai asked subconsciously, thinking that something big had happened.
"Xue Shuai, there is something I need to report to you."
Next, Liu Huaming quickly reported the relevant matters and stated all of Su Dingping’s requests.
After listening to the report, Xue Shuai fell silent and did not give a positive answer immediately. For him, this matter was too big and could not be decided unilaterally.
"Please wait a moment. I will report to the higher-ups right away." After a moment, Xue Shuai broke the silence.
The Longxia tribe developed a unique skill, ballistic missiles to attack aircraft carriers, and from the beginning they used the Eagle tribe's nuclear-powered aircraft carrier as a target ship for attack. This was completely different from directly attacking the Donghuang tribe.
There is no pressure at any time to attack the Donghuang tribe, and the whole people will support it. However, attacking the aircraft carrier of the Eagle tribe means directly declaring war with the other party, and the scale of the war may be out of control.
After hanging up the phone, Xue Shuai immediately took out the internal confidential phone and dialed it.
After three rings, the phone was answered, and soon an old, yet energetic voice came from the receiver.
"Is it the fighting on the front line?"
Xue Shuai quickly said truthfully: "Yes."
"Then there's no need to ask for instructions. Just take charge directly." The old voice sounded again.
Xue Shuai quickly said: "This matter is different..."
Next, Xue Shuai reported the situation and specifically mentioned the development of ballistic missiles that could attack aircraft carriers.
Since it involves a direct face-to-face clash with the Eagle Tribe, the number one military power on Blue Star, we naturally have to be extremely cautious and careful, and we absolutely cannot make any decisions on a whim.
"How sure are you about this?"
"It was just a missile test, and it's not clear."
Xue Shuai reported directly without hiding anything, "But Dingping is a very stable person. I believe he won't do it unless he is 100% sure, just like what he did before."
Next, Xue Shuai recounted all the major events related to Su Dingping. His purpose, of course, was to strengthen the confidence of the respected old man on the other end of the phone in Su Dingping.
"I still have confidence in the ballistic missile he developed to attack aircraft carriers. Please trust him as well." Xue Shuai added at the end, sounding very sure.
After the report was finished, he did not hear the old voice. He was waiting quietly. (End of this chapter)
