Chapter 13 Unknown UFO
"really!"

Looking at the physical refraction phenomenon of the chopping laser around the tiankeng, Song Xizhu became more certain of his guess that what they saw was only the surface, and the main reason behind it was gravitational waves.

Light travels in a straight line through the air. Unless the carrier is offset, it is impossible for the light to bend. This was confirmed after adjusting the irradiation area of ​​the laser generator. There is indeed a "gravitational lens" phenomenon around the [tiankeng], which means that the surrounding space is distorted due to gravitational waves.

"Immediately send the results to the command center and recommend that this ship evacuate the current sea area!"

Looking at the results of the investigation, Song Xizhu's calm face showed solemnity for the first time. Ignorance is fearlessness, and she felt extreme danger!
However, at this moment, the electronic detection equipment of 815A captured an abnormal reaction in the sinkhole, and the next second the colorful film on the surface of the sinkhole began to flow violently.

hum!hum!hum!
Around the tiankeng, a unique humming sound of the magnetic field was heard. In an instant, the drones close to the tiankeng were affected by the strong electromagnetic pulse, lost control and fell towards the sea.

A dazzling rainbow-colored light appeared in the center of the tiankeng, and the energy level continued to increase, gradually approaching the electromagnetic pulse produced by a nuclear explosion.

"What the hell is going on? Quick! Evacuate!"

Two E-2 early warning aircraft that were farther away hurriedly flew away, but their small bodies could not withstand the damage of electromagnetic pulses.

At this moment, all the countries concerned about this giant tiankeng had detected the unusual changes. The captain of the 815A needed no reminder and immediately gave the order to the female helmsman beside him: "Full left rudder! Full speed and leave the current sea area!"

"Yes!"

As an electronic reconnaissance ship, the 815A's own armament can only barely protect itself. At this time, the best strategy is to retreat.

The female officer controlled the 6000-ton warship, quickly changed its course on the sea, and headed towards the Liaoning aircraft carrier battle group without looking back.

At this moment, the captain of the Carl Vinson didn't care about the 815A that was rampaging in the defense zone. With the strange phenomenon inside the sinkhole, the electromagnetic clutter in the surrounding sea area increased exponentially. Even they were affected 100 nautical miles away, and the radar gradually failed.

"Increase radar power immediately!"

The power consumption of the SPY-1A phased array radar is much greater than that of traditional radars. The simplest and most direct way to deal with this kind of clutter interference is to increase the radar power.

"Yes, sir!"

The radar officer quickly adjusted the radar power. Although it was still interfered with, at least it could be used. Even though continuous high-power operation would consume a lot of power and seriously affect the cruiser's endurance, the problem of reduced endurance was no longer a big deal in the current situation.

"Wait! What is that?!"

The captain of the Ticonderoga-class cruiser looked at the sinkhole emitting strong light in disbelief. The next second, a black line was "pulled" out from the sinkhole, and then the line collapsed into countless black dots. In an instant, a shrill alarm sounded from the radar.

"Unidentified target detected, number (careful identification) .100, IFF no response!"

After these unidentified targets appeared, they rushed towards the ships on the sea.

Inside the CIC, the radar officer looked at the densely packed [UN] signals on the radar screen and looked at the captain in panic. These signals had appeared too suddenly, and they were completely unprepared. "Range 50!"

"45!"

"Still getting closer!"

"Sir! The electromagnetic interference is increasing! Our communications are blocked!"

The captain's face changed as he looked at the approaching aerial target. In this situation, they could not wait for the USS Carl Vinson to give orders. The communication channel was severely interfered with by electromagnetic interference, and their radar was also affected. As the energy level of the electromagnetic interference signal continued to increase, it would soon become blind!
"Intercept the high-threat target immediately! Change course and evacuate the current sea area!" A captain is definitely not a fool. He quickly analyzed the current situation and issued a series of orders.

"Yes, sir!"

The fire control radar struggled to lock onto multiple incoming targets in a strong and complex electromagnetic environment. Fortunately, although the Ticonderoga class was built in the 80s, the number of targets had not exceeded the upper limit of its fire channel.

The vertical launch unit opened, and with a whoosh! The rocket engine ignited, and gases gushed out of the side guide slots, propelling the missile out of the launch silo. After reaching an altitude of one hundred meters, the rudders adjusted the missile's course and it flew towards the incoming unidentified target, leaving a white tail flame in the air.

One after another, standard SM-2 air defense missiles were fired. No matter what, looking at the actions of these things, it was known that they were up to no good. The USS Carl Vinson also detected these unidentified flying objects, but the signal was unstable and could not be tracked continuously.

As these unidentified flying targets approached, the USS Carl Vinson carrier battle group responded quickly. The carrier formation, which was already in a state of combat readiness, carried out regional air defense missions, and the escorting destroyers and cruisers continued to launch air defense missiles at the incoming unidentified targets.

The power section of the ship-borne air defense missile is very long, most or even all of it is the active section. After pushing the missile to a high speed, the standard SM-2 flies towards the target to intercept the incoming unidentified flying vehicle.

"You know what, when Americans fight for their lives, they really look like they're worth it."

In a strong electromagnetic interference environment, the 815A model with excellent radar performance can better grasp the current situation.

However, as the most advanced electronic reconnaissance ship in the East China Sea, the Navy is only responsible for the operation of the ship. Even the captain has no right to know about the ship-borne technical reconnaissance system. The technical reconnaissance authority is directly under the responsibility of the headquarters. It seems that the Navy has been working hard to collect data on American weapons.

In the control room, the technician in charge of operating the shipborne radar system frowned. The electromagnetic spectrum was now in chaos, and the active phased array radar was operating at almost full capacity to combat electromagnetic clutter.

"Something's happening! An unidentified aerial target has been detected approaching!"

Hearing this, Song Xizhu quickly walked to the radar and saw that most of the targets rushed towards the USS Carl Vinson, and a small part rushed towards the two E-2s. Then the RCS signal of the E-2 disappeared, and the remaining aircraft changed course and rushed towards the aircraft carrier's subordinate ships.

Seeing the E-2 AWACS signal disappear, she frowned and sat down to operate the equipment. No RCS signal of the missile was found in the radar scanning data, which meant that the E-2 was attacked using a method they did not understand yet, and the AWACS was successfully shot down. The opponent was extremely dangerous!
Ding!
Ding!
The active phased array radar, two generations more advanced than the US military, detected three bright spots approaching at high speed, followed by electromagnetic interference. Song Xizhu did not panic. He picked up the internal phone and said in a clear and cold voice after the call was connected:

"Captain, there are three unidentified targets, traveling at Mach 3, approaching our ship at high speed!"
