Genius is just the threshold for me!

"Quickly! Our comrades from the southwest will be landing soon, ground crew prepare! Prepare to receive them!"

"Rest room, rest room! Set up two air-conditioned rest rooms, prepare the food. They haven't had lunch yet, so keep it simple and not too complicated to avoid the pilots and operators not being used to the food. We'll make it bigger in the evening..."

Around 1 p.m., at a secluded airport in the east, the completely empty concrete runway emitted distorted waves of heat under the summer sun.

During the last physical examination, the Lightning Fighter led the team to blockade Putuo Airport. The middle-aged man with two bars and three stars had fine beads of sweat on his forehead, but he didn't bother to wipe them away as he personally arranged each step of the setup.

After everything was arranged and a second check confirmed there were no problems, the middle-aged man took a deep breath and looked up at the western sky.

Rumbling--

The next moment, three faint fighter jets appeared in the sky, followed by a roar.

In less than two minutes, the three fighter jets arrived over the airport. The middle jet, which looked larger, was the first to descend and, guided by the airport staff, landed precisely on the middle runway.

The tires screeched against the track with a short, sharp sound, which was then swallowed up by the lingering sound of the engine.

"Quick! Quick! It's landing!" The middle-aged man saw the fighter jets landing and immediately led his team to rush over.

"So this is an electronic warfare aircraft... It looks incredibly powerful!"

The middle-aged man ran to the side of the J-16D that was steadily parked, looked up and examined the silver-gray aircraft that was more than two stories tall. Looking at the electronic warfare aircraft with electronic pods and anti-radiation missiles hanging below, his eyes were even more ardent than when he was picking up his bride ten years ago.

They watched for several minutes until the ground crew brought a special boarding ladder to take the pilots and operators down.

The middle-aged man then looked away and walked towards the two people wearing anti-load suits.

"Greetings, sir."

Upon seeing the two three-star markers, the pilot and operator immediately saluted.

"You are welcome."

The middle-aged man returned the greeting and said with great enthusiasm, "The rest room and food have been prepared. The mission is urgent, so please have something to eat and rest for a while."

"Sir, we still need to wait for the Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group experts to come and inspect the fighter jets together. The other group can rest."

The pilot shook his head and pointed to the other side of the runway where the J-10s fighter jets were bringing over the second group of pilots and operators.

Because of the tight schedule, and because the ground crew were unfamiliar with the new fighter jets.

This time, the pilots and operators had to be divided into two groups. One group was responsible for rushing over and assisting with the inspection, while the other group was arranged to rest upon landing and wait for the Howler to disrupt the line again in the evening.

"Okay, we'll arrange it right away."

The middle-aged man nodded hurriedly. After waiting for more than half an hour, the ground crew had moved the fighter jet to the hangar. The first group of pilots and operators had prepared all kinds of tools. The roar of the sky rang out again, and a twin-engine military aircraft flew in from the west and landed on the longest runway in the middle.

"I really don't want to fly on this military plane..."

Xu Ziming descended to the ground using a ladder brought by the ground crew. Once his feet touched solid ground, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"...Engineer Xu."

Xia Tianqiang followed him down, and after regaining his footing, his face was still somewhat pale. He asked, "I heard that Engineer Wang usually travels in fighter jets. Can he handle this?"

Previously, when he was at Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group, there were relatively few emergency missions like this. He usually traveled by car and had never really experienced the way military aircraft traveled like those at Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group.

This sudden military aircraft trip really made him throw up his breakfast.

Moreover, they already travel like this on military aircraft, but Wang Xingguo, the 001 officer of Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group, frequently travels on business in fighter jets. What incredible perseverance that takes...

Don't compare yourself to that old guy.

Before he turned fifty, that guy would always fly his own fighter jet to the scene for emergency missions; it was only in the last few years that he switched to taking commercial flights…

Xu Ziming took a deep breath, straightened his wrinkled work clothes, and looked at the people who were there to greet him: "Get ready for work. Make sure you can get here in time. This afternoon will be the time to see the real test."

As the afternoon approached, and it was confirmed that the J-16D was in place without any problems, forces throughout the eastern region began to mobilize under the command of headquarters.

One by one, the fighter jets began their warm-up and startup, all personnel took their positions, and one by one, the hidden missile sites were unlocked silently, the missiles stood upright, pointing towards the sky.

Even the WZ-8 reconnaissance aircraft, which are mainly deployed in the south and currently only have five in service, have had three secretly transferred over, undergoing pre-launch preparations and ready to be deployed at any time...

Although this time it was just electronic warfare.

But everyone understands that the fact that the Roarer can patrol and stroll around like this every day, given its range, means that there must be an aircraft carrier fleet hidden in the open sea, providing a take-off and landing platform for the Roarer.

No one can guarantee that, given the backdrop of a global industrial negotiation in Europe, what was originally an electronic warfare confrontation will not escalate into an imminent real-world conflict.

Ding-dong! Ding-dong—

Dear passenger, we regret to inform you that your flight GSXXXX, originally scheduled to depart at 16:08, has been delayed due to weather conditions and is now expected to depart at 19:08. Please check the airport display screens or call our customer service for the latest information. We wish you a pleasant journey!

Around four o'clock in the afternoon, airports along the eastern coast...

Suddenly, messages popped up on the phones of all the waiting passengers. On the airport's huge display screen, all the flights that were originally green and on time now had a red sign indicating that they were delayed due to weather.

"Is it due to the weather?"

The passengers subconsciously looked up at the bright blue sky outside the window, their expressions showing a bit of bewilderment.

"It's not a weather delay!"

Williams, who had been observing some sporadic unusual movements and pondering the underlying reasons, slammed his fist on the table in agitation upon seeing the sudden, collective delay notices issued by major airlines.

"They couldn't hold back any longer; they were finally about to lose their patience!"

"Immediately contact the Nimi and ask if the Roarer has been deployed. Also, inform them of the situation here on the Nimi and tell them that things are about to get tense..."

"Received, sir."

The liaison officer quickly went to the confidential teleconference room on the side, and in less than ten minutes, he ran back with a document, reporting earnestly.

"Sir, the Nimi is very grateful for our intelligence support. The Roarer squadron was dispatched for patrol twenty minutes ago and will soon reach the border here."

In response to the reaction here, they decided to add another cruiser, the USS Ticonderoga, for flanking maneuvering and deterrence, while simultaneously raising the entire fleet's combat readiness level...

Sizzle! Sizzle—

Before the liaison officer could finish speaking, the steady hum of electricity from the speaker of the specially made radio by the window was immediately interrupted by static.

Everyone suddenly looked up at the radio that was making the sound, and a thought involuntarily popped into their minds.

It's time to start!

The secret airfield where J-16D fighters landed at noon

Xu Ziming and Xia Tianqiang spent several hours inspecting the J-16D fighter jet that had just taken off from the runway and headed east, while listening intently to the operator's and "Wang Xingguo's" voices in their headsets.

[Report! Electric Wolf 2 has detected a weak interference signal...]

[Keep moving forward. They're on the high seas. This is just a little bit of scattered electronic interference noise. They're still hundreds of kilometers away from the actual electronic battlefield. Maintain signal reception and don't rush to turn on your devices!]

[Electric Wolf No. 1, Electric Wolf No. 2!]

We have confirmed that the other side is traveling in formation, and our fighter jets have the advantage of a technological gap.

Our frequency hopping speed is twice that of theirs, our response is two orders of magnitude faster, our instantaneous power is twice that of the Roarer, and our jammer's duty cycle and cooling efficiency are 200% higher than theirs... As long as we conceal our true coordinates, our chances of winning are very high.

The specific operational strategy will proceed according to the simulations conducted over the past few days.

We must advance head-on to fight, because constantly hiding will only lead to being surrounded.

However, direct combat is not about comparing total power with the enemy, but about comparing tactics, frequency hopping jamming speed, and response speed.

As long as we don't give them the opportunity to precisely lock onto us and then use beamforming for targeted fire, our gallium nitride and new electronic warfare systems can defeat them all one by one!

[Electric Wolf No. 1 received!]

[Electric Wolf No. 2 received!]

Laboratory No. 78.

Lin Dong listened to the reply through the earpiece, turned off the microphone, and looked at the 200-inch screen on the wall, which displayed the live-action simulation.

A map of the eastern coastal region shows a green signal dot representing a J-16D fighter jet cruising eastward toward the sea at Mach 0.95, while translucent ripples representing enemy interference noise are slowly emerging from the depths of the ocean.

"It will take another ten minutes or so..."

Lin Dong took a bag of sunflower seeds, opened it, poured out half of it, and handed it to Lin Weiliang and Wang Xingguo, who were sitting on the other side watching the game with headphones on: "Dad, Godfather, want some?"

"You eat it." Lin Weiliang shook his head.

"Xiao Dong, why does your voice changer sound weird?"

Wang Xingguo also shook his head in refusal, then, as if remembering something, looked at Lin Dong and asked, "This sounds just like my serious demeanor."

"Hardware issues, and also the issue of model sample size."

Lin Dong explained simply: "A voice changer is essentially a voice cloning technology. It can collect other people's voiceprints and then clone and replace them..."

However, when a normal person speaks, their tone and pitch change constantly, and many subjective factors are involved.

If you only collect a little sound and then try to imitate all the sounds, it will naturally sound very serious, as if all the sounds have the same tone and pitch.

As for increasing the data collection time and sample size, AI chips are not yet in mass production. The voice-changing model has too many subjective factors, and the current chip architecture cannot fully adapt to it.

Voice cloning technology has existed since the last century.

However, at this stage, we can only simulate a few sentences at a time, and we cannot simulate continuous dialogue.

To truly achieve continuous dialogue simulation that is unrecognizable to over 60% of ordinary people, we still need to wait for breakthroughs in AI chips using tensor computing cores and the Volta architecture, which can perform hardware-level mixed-precision calculations, combined with large-scale model technology.

However, because this technology was easily exploited by criminals, many cases of fraudulent spoofing occurred as soon as it appeared, and it was immediately shut down.

Di-

Lin Dong and Wang Xingguo chatted for a while.

Just then, a beep sounded from the earphones.

[Report! Electric Wolf 2 has detected enemy radar signals, analysis and identification completed, and reverse jamming initiated...]

Lin Dong quickly turned on the desktop screen and entered the background data interface. When he saw the changes in the data, he immediately smiled.

"Very skilled, quick-witted."

Lin Dong smiled, tapped his fingers quickly on the keyboard, glanced at the radar signal frequency domain diagram detected by the J-16D, turned on the voice-changing microphone and ordered: "Accelerate forward and maintain concealment."

They know something has come in, but they can't find our coordinates...

Enter the attack range within three minutes, concentrate fire to blind and shut down the enemy's receivers and radar, and then destroy their communication data links. Note that during the attack, you must simultaneously perform a 90° lateral change of direction, and fire the side lobes into the sky to avoid exposing yourself...

[Electric Wolf No. 1 received, accelerating forward!]

[Electric Wolf 2 received, in control, preparing for attack!]

boom--

The roar of engines filled the laboratory's sound system.

The J-16D, which was originally maintaining a cruising speed of Mach 0.95, suddenly broke the speed of sound and made irregular changes of direction as it rushed toward the three signal points identified in the open sea.

Meanwhile, on the simulated combat map, concentric circles of reverse signal ripples are spreading out from the J-16D, intertwining and forming a radar-blinding area.

Unlike stealth fighters, which reduce radar reflection through fuselage design and absorb radar waves with radar-absorbing materials, stealth is not achieved through radar reflection.

The stealth capability of electronic warfare aircraft mainly relies on reverse jamming to deceive enemy radar in measuring angle, distance, and speed.

For example, by using special jamming signals, a phase-distorted signal can be created, causing the enemy radar to calculate an incorrect direction and angle.

By using a DRFM radio frequency memory, the intercepted radar pulse is delayed by several microseconds before being transmitted back, creating a false echo at a "long distance" to mislead enemy radar into misjudging the distance.

It can also actively transmit radar signals with the same echo frequency but opposite phase to cancel out the Doppler effect generated by enemy radar waves when it moves, disguising itself as a stationary object so that enemy radar can directly ignore the signal here.

[Report! Entering 50km attack range, Electric Wolf 1/2 requesting to attack!]

Listening to the report through his headset and looking at the combat simulation map at 50-kilometer intervals, which indicated the effective attack range of electronic warfare aircraft, Lin Dong took a deep breath and issued the order:

"Based on the simulated combat, attack is permitted!"
