Genius is just the threshold for me!

8:10 PM.

After the drones were deployed and initially guided, and then the drones were legitimately withdrawn from the battlefield, a headquarters ruling was displayed on the screen, indicating that the exercise had officially ended.

[The Red Force bombers successfully completed their penetration and bombing mission and withdrew. The Blue Force suffered 9003 casualties... The Red Force has won this exercise. Soldiers from both sides are requested to return to base and strictly adhere to confidentiality regulations.]

"Ghost has landed successfully as instructed by headquarters. Next, you will work with the Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group's flight test department and the military to conduct in-depth testing of Ghost's combat capabilities... Thank you for your hard work."

Upon seeing the result, Lin Dong turned on the microphone and gave an instruction.

[Ghost ship received!]

As soon as I finished speaking, a somewhat excited response came through my earphones.

Clearly, the four combat crew members of the Ghost had a great time in this live-fire exercise.

"Unfortunately, the drones carried too few units, and the system was a rudimentary swarm system. It only managed to destroy 9003 infantry units and a missile battalion of the Blue Force."

Looking at the final results of the exercise, Wang Xingguo's eyes revealed a slight regret that he hadn't been able to completely wipe out the position.

"Godfather, you are the real infantry king of hell."

Lin Dong's lips twitched when he heard this, then he gave a thumbs up.

The father and son had only developed equipment for infantry, but Wang Xingguo really wanted to dump all the equipment on the infantry, leaving none behind.

The reason why 7800 drones couldn't be completely wiped out is mainly because infantry are too dispersed on the modern battlefield.

In modern army infantry, the tactics they learn most often during training, besides those related to assault combat, are the core tactics for protecting against artillery fire.

Although the simple swarm algorithm of airdrop drones can prioritize areas with the densest signal within the kill range.

In addition, during the airdrop, the bomber will also use the high-definition infrared reconnaissance images from the WZ-8 to provide initial signal guidance to the drone swarm, ensuring that all drones can enter its infrared tracking range.

However, the infantry personnel were too dispersed in the positions arranged according to wartime conditions, resulting in a bombing ratio of less than 1.2 for the 7800 air-dropped drones, which was insufficient to annihilate all 12000 infantrymen.

"You don't understand... The complete annihilation of the Blue Team in the exercise is the greatest respect for the Blue Team," Wang Xingguo calmly replied.

"Godfather, you're right, right, right."

Lin Dong ignored this guy who was more pretentious than anyone else and opened the battle damage list for both sides sent by the headquarters referee department.

蓝方——1、步兵9003人；2、1个防空飞弹营的作战人员、26枚飞弹、8辆飞弹车等全战损；3、霹雳-12飞弹72枚；4、霹雳-15飞弹58枚；4、歼-16电子战机一架；

红方——1、空投无人机7800架；2、长剑-100飞弹2枚；3、空地-88飞弹14枚；4、格斗无人战机2架；5、航空煤油34吨。

"34 tons of fuel oil... Headquarters is really playing with people's mentality." Lin Dong looked at the list and couldn't help but laugh.

Because the entire journey was almost entirely a supersonic penetration with full loads of missiles, the external missiles increased drag, and the cruising speed exceeded Mach 1.4 even after several hundred kilometers. During the 2100-kilometer combat range, 34 tons of fuel were consumed, accounting for 30.3% of the total fuel consumption.

They simply included all the fuel consumed by the Red Team in the battle damage statistics...

The statistician at this headquarters is definitely a treacherous fellow. When the Blue Team commander sees this statistical table, he probably won't be able to eat for two days.

"Given the objective technical superiority, it's not appropriate to resort to criticism. The only way to provoke them is to find other angles and push the Blue Team to increase their training intensity."

Wang Xingguo saw through the headquarters' little scheme at a glance. As he spoke, he watched the bombers that had finished the exercise and were beginning to land, and couldn't help but sigh.

"It's a pity it's a bomber. Compared to fighter jets, it's a much worse aircraft for this kind of door-kicking mission."

"Now you believe what I'm saying, right?"

Lin Dong rolled his eyes: "This thing is for kicking down doors, it's all about catching people off guard. The laser interception system is for self-defense during a breakthrough, not for forcibly kicking down doors like a fighter jet."

Although they are not professional combat personnel or combat staff officers.

However, during this live-fire exercise, both Wang Xingguo and Lin Dong discovered the hidden flaws behind Ghost's sweeping victory tonight.

That's its mobility; it's terrible.

uuɡu. First update, no typos. If you don't see the pinyin suffix in the address input, you can access the first update site.

To assess the combat performance of a piece of equipment, one must consider not only its strengths but also its weaknesses.

If the shortcomings are too obvious, then other equipment must be used to compensate for them.

Tonight is just a drill, so everyone should follow the drill rules. Everyone knows it's just a drill, so there won't be too much excitement or impulsiveness.

If tonight were a real war, with missile attacks proving ineffective against this laser interception system, pilots would surely resort to ramming their fighter jets into the enemy.

Given the sheer size of the fighter jet, the laser interception system simply cannot destroy it as quickly as an air-to-air missile. Once the loyal wingmen are exhausted, the Ghost can be rammed down.

of course.

Such fighting spirit is something you can find in only two or three countries around the world.

But even without using fighter jets to ram the bomber, there are many ways to deal with it if we know in advance that such a bomber exists.

If it's within China, it doesn't need to be too complicated.

If they dare to fly high and drop bombs, then there are no J-1 fighters outside their interception range. High-altitude and low-altitude attacks are stupid.

To evade the J-1 fighter jet's low-altitude penetration, use unmanned aerial vehicles or missiles to launch a near-vertical, high-angle dive attack.

By simply calculating the parabola and lead time, even if it explodes, the debris can still contribute to the attack using the Earth's weight and inertia.

If it were abroad, there would be many ways to deal with it as well. The simplest and most straightforward way would be to modify the machine gun.

The previous design sacrificed range for accuracy, but was changed to increase range, even if the accuracy was slightly worse, in order to increase the range to more than 10 kilometers.

At that time, large bombers with almost no maneuverability would face a group of fighter jets equipped with such specially made machine guns, which would be nothing more than a shooting game of ganging up on targets.

Laser interception systems can intercept missiles, but they are completely ineffective against machine guns that are only a few centimeters in diameter.

"Keep it a secret! It must be kept strictly confidential!"

Wang Xingguo understood this as well, and nodded solemnly: "I'll talk to the headquarters leaders about this later and bring up the security measures again..."

The Southern arbitration case is escalating, and the US might very well want to take action this year. If a conflict does break out, disregarding the long-term implications, keeping it secret until then will be incredibly profitable!

Military industry and military affairs are inseparable.

As the publicly acknowledged chief engineer of Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group (CAC), a bigwig who had watched the military parade from the city tower and even dined at a family banquet, he would be informed of relevant intelligence concerning external military affairs.

"You guys deal with this godfather. If that doesn't work, we have enough fighter jets to escort him, so it's not a problem."

With the data and experience from tonight's battle, as long as the threat of enemy aircraft is driven away, this Ghost can fly over the enemy's head and drop bombs, even under the cover of anti-aircraft missiles. This is the correct way to use it..."

Lin Dong was speechless when he talked about this: "Bombers should do what bombers are supposed to do."

"How could things be like this today, with bombers kicking down doors without fighter escort and support?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Xingguo said happily, "Didn't we successfully kick down the door? Thirty-six fighter jets, plus early warning aircraft and electronic warfare aircraft, are powerless to fight. The Blue Force's air combat regiment won't be able to sleep tonight..."

More importantly, this real-world experience gave me a general idea of ​​how to operate a sixth-generation fighter jet system.

Next time, we can paint a good picture for headquarters. Once we've developed the sixth-generation fighter system, we'll truly be invincible in the air.

In Wang Xingguo's view.

The most impressive part of this live-fire exercise was the Ghost Ship's powerful breakthrough of two lines of defense despite being bombarded by a dense barrage of missiles.

The most unexpected thing is that after launching the externally mounted air-to-ground missiles, it suddenly enters electronic stealth mode and disappears from all radar signals.

The most valuable elements are the WZ-8 reconnaissance aircraft, the CJ-100 missile, and the WZ-1 fighter jet working together to force the Blue Team's J-16s to avoid being sent out to their deaths in the opening engagement.

This involves intelligent decision-making and collaboration through a wingman system.

The combat personnel, once given a mission order, completed a multi-equipment coordinated operation, allowing him to witness the hidden power of system-wide coordinated operations.

If such an opening confrontation were entirely controlled and coordinated by personnel, it wouldn't be impossible to coordinate, but the margin for error would be too low and the response time too long.

To be able to pinpoint every point so precisely and effectively requires years of team training.

Moreover, even if the training is completed, the time spent on personnel communication and the response time are far inferior to those of intelligent collaborative decision-making. If there is any negligence or mistake due to tension, this fleeting critical opportunity will be missed.

"Sixth-generation fighter jets? Maybe after the change of leadership in the US and when the industry stabilizes."

Lin Dong shook his head, saw that the Ghost had successfully landed at a military airfield in the northwest, shut down the combat simulation system, took the key, stood up and said, "I'm going back. Transfer it to the military for in-depth combat testing. Godfather, keep an eye on it."

"The J-20 fighter jet themed photoshoot can be arranged now. Let me know the time tomorrow, and we'll go to Northwestern Polytechnical University together."

"You went to Northwestern Polytechnical University?"

Wang Xingguo paused for a moment, then understood and nodded, saying, "Okay, go and keep him company. You friends and peers can help him out; this kid is already on the verge of getting out of this..."

"I'm going back."

Lin Dong nodded, left the laboratory, and returned to his residential compound.
