[Location: Edge of Xitai Tiankeng Identification Area]

The staring satellite is gazing at the Western Pacific Ocean. As the high-precision optical lens continues to zoom in, a target emitting heat appears in the satellite's field of view above the dark clouds. After continuing to zoom in, the satellite can clearly identify its outline and track it.

[Sky Eye calling the sky, about to enter the tiankeng identification zone, switching to laser communication.]

"Changkong received, switching to laser communication."

After switching to laser communication, the situational awareness capability of the data link displays the positions of Type 1s one by one on the front canopy, just like playing a game, but this game only has one life and is at the expert level.

The laser radar installed on the bow scans a 170-degree sector in front of the nose, looking for any abnormal objects. The integrated EODAS system and laser communication system allow the J15T to have a 360-degree situational awareness range like the fifth-generation aircraft, but its situational awareness capability in the front hemisphere far exceeds that of ordinary Flying Sharks.

Of course, although the body cannot see the back hemisphere, Liu Jun has the ability to perceive the situation, which makes up for this part of the feedback.

"Changkong calling the command center, about to enter the identification zone."

"Command Center received, please be extremely careful."

"Changkong understands."

Pushing the throttle, Liu Jun steered the fighter across an invisible line and into the tiankeng identification zone. The J15T's radio communication was interfered with, but because there was only a receiver and no transmitter on board, the radar interference could not be seen.

Almost instantly, the sentries on the tiankeng responded, and six of them broke away from the cluster and dived towards Liu Jun.

Liu Jun looked up at the six aircraft with bright flashes in the sky. The EODAS system continued to magnify them. Under thermal imaging, he could see the box representing Type 1 and marked its position in three-dimensional space.

[Ten o'clock direction, distance 40000, quantity 6]

Looking at the area marked in the avionics system, a heavy rain caused by artificial intervention is brewing there.

So will type 2 appear?

With this idea in mind, Liu Jun adjusted the flight path of the J15T, flying outside the identification circle, maintaining a safe distance from Type 1, and waiting for Type 2 to come.

At the edge of the tiankeng, on the 815A Yuheng starship, raindrops fell on the deck, and two 30MM naval guns with programmed bullets were pointed at the sky. Next to the Yuheng starship, there was the Luohe ship, a sword-wielding guard standing by.

In terms of cost and value, even the latest 054B frigate cannot compare to the Yuheng starship.

Inside the CIC of the Yuheng starship, technicians with technical reconnaissance authority far higher than those of other warships were staring at the radar system.

Song Xizhu looked at the J15T that disappeared from the radar. Liu Jun had entered the identification circle, so it was time for them to prepare.

"Is the equipment ready?"

"'Professor', the laser equipment is ready"

Next, we just have to wait, waiting for Changkong to attract Type 2.

If everything goes well. Song Xizhu is thinking about the special mission of 815A.

Inside the command center, the satellite also noticed the actions of another force.

Under the satellite's watchful eye, two nuclear-powered aircraft carriers were highlighted in the absence of cumulonimbus clouds, and their movements were closely tracked. "Report to Commander! USS Truman and USS George H.W. Bush have entered a position 300 nautical miles east of the tiankeng and are deploying for combat."

The satellite images were constantly updated, and the ships on the sea were identified one by one.

The United States' dual aircraft carrier formation formed a mutually protective horn, enclosing the tiankeng within a combat radius of 700 kilometers.

"Teacher Zhou, the Americans are going to launch a military operation against the tiankeng." Xiaoxi said in a low voice.

"There's nothing we can do. We can't interfere in other countries' internal affairs, and they are not acting in the name of the United Nations." Old Zhou sighed.

The United States has no ability to interfere in what the University of Tokyo wants to do; similarly, the University of Tokyo cannot interfere in what the United States wants to do, otherwise it would violate the University of Tokyo’s foreign policy principles.

At the same time, at the US military headquarters in Hawaii, the major general commander was watching every move in the Western Pacific.

"Commander Kou Manda, under the control of the meteorological weapons of the East China Sea, heavy rain will fall in the Western Pacific in the next four hours. According to satellite monitoring, a East China Sea Flanker D has entered the identification zone."

The major general looked at the position of the D-type Flanker, as well as the Renkai-class, Jiangkai II-class frigates, and Luyang III-class destroyers distributed in the ocean, which showed that the East China Sea had already taken action.

"The East has already started, let's get started!"

"Yes! General!"

On the sea, the newly repaired USS Truman and USS Bush formed a double aircraft carrier formation and deployed in the waters of the eastern Pacific Ocean.

Aircraft loaded with ammunition and fuel await catapult launch, giving the world another American show! Proving to the world that America can still fight! And against aliens!

White steam filled the deck, and F18 fighter jets, loaded with air-to-air missiles and auxiliary fuel tanks, took off by catapult at the signal of the ground crew.

After flying out of the deck, the F18 swayed for a moment and then flew into the sky.

At this moment, the United States demonstrated its powerful naval strength. After all, no matter how weak it becomes, its foundation is still there. The weakening of the United States is only relative to its former self and the increasingly powerful Tokyo Navy.

The two aircraft carriers have a total of 190 aircraft, and this time the Americans dispatched 60 F18s, a total of five squadrons, which is also a huge bet.

"Viper Squadron, proceed to area A2"

"Hyena Squadron, proceed to area A1"

The E2 early warning aircraft that took off in advance commanded the F18 squadron that took off. The huge command pressure made the carrier-based aircraft commander of the combat support group sweat on his forehead.

Modern warfare is not like World War I and World War II. There are no cases of commanding three-digit fighter jets at the same time. The main reason is that the command system cannot keep up and cannot effectively coordinate such a large fleet.

Commanding five squadrons of fighter jets has already accumulated enormous pressure on the Lighthouse's combat system. The massive amount of data constantly interacting makes it possible for the command system to crash at any time.

Five squadrons of fighter jets spread out in the air, forming a loose formation, and continued to climb in altitude to accumulate energy, preparing to launch AIM120s to carry out long-range attacks on Type 1 sentinels around the sinkhole.

With the example of the Tokyo University, the Americans certainly know how to shoot down these aliens. Of course, given the current American industrial system, it is impossible to transform a large number of missiles in a short period of time, but this does not prevent the total number of Sentinels from being only in the double digits.

During the months of preparation, the radar seekers of AIM120 have all been replaced with anti-radiation seekers, ready to kill all the sentinels with a single round of ejection, after which the sinkhole can be studied without hindrance.
