What does it mean to get a perfect score on the college entrance exam but then go missing?

Normally, test flights of new aircraft are conducted in areas where the aircraft are most securely under its control.

Before the test flight, the Air Force will clear the airspace in advance to eliminate any possible interference or risk of leakage.

But this time...

Not only was it not tested in a safe condition.

And this flight landed directly in the face of the US.

Yang Xiao and Wu Changjiang's hearts jumped into their throats.

Guam is known as a fortress by the US, and it's no joke that it's one of the most heavily defended areas in the world.

They knew it all too well.

There is a permanently deployed THAAD system here, a long-range X-band radar responsible for high-altitude terminal missile defense, intercepting medium- and long-range missiles and near-space gliding targets.

There is also a land-based Aegis system, which is the only fixed Aegis system in the Asia-Pacific region and can cover targets in the mid-to-high altitudes and outside the atmosphere.

Needless to say, the carrier of the Air Force's air defense early warning aircraft is also a concern.

Andersen Air Force Base is home to E-3 early warning aircraft and RC-135 reconnaissance aircraft, which patrol the airspace over the western Pacific Ocean 24 hours a day.

If these devices were discovered, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The only thing to be thankful for is...

This aircraft has good stealth capabilities.

It has at least withstood the test of the Western Desert war zone.

No radar in the entire theater of operations detected a complete signal from the aircraft.

Since they couldn't catch them in the Western Desert War Zone, Yang Xiao guessed that they wouldn't be able to catch Meijun anytime soon either.

So he earnestly advised, "THAAD's detection advantage is 40-100km. It can reliably detect and continuously track targets at this distance. If you continue to maintain this altitude, you will be easily detected. I suggest you descend immediately."

The core radar of the THAAD air defense system is the AN/TPY-2 radar.

The elevation scanning range of this radar is approximately 0 to 50 degrees.

Its weakness lies in the adjacent space of the lower half, which is 20-40 meters high.

Therefore, as long as the aircraft descends to a lower altitude, below the radar band and mixed in with a large amount of ground clutter, coupled with the aircraft's own excellent signal stealth capabilities, the aircraft will most likely be able to get away with it.

However, Qin Ze ignored Yang Xiao's advice and looked at Bai Huiyan: "Senior, maintain the current altitude."

Wu Changjiang became anxious: "Didn't you understand what Commander Yang meant? Only by lowering your altitude can you ensure safety."

Qin Ze pouted as he looked at the two generals, barely able to contain himself.

"As the chief designer of the aircraft, of course I know where the radar is most effective."

Wu Changjiang: "Then why aren't you doing it?"

"No, I'm conducting test flights," Qin Ze said firmly. "As everyone knows, experiments are science, and a clear control group is essential."

Yang Xiao: "??"

Wu Changjiang: "??"

Qin Ze continued, "The main purpose of the test flight is to test the aircraft's stealth capabilities."

"No, you drank it?"

Yang Xiao was extremely anxious.

"Why even bother with the testing!"

"Haven't you already tested everything in the Western Desert theater?"

"Your plane is perfect, no problems whatsoever!"

Qin Ze pouted slightly: "What's the point of testing in the Western Desert War Zone?"

"Our planes are built specifically to counter the US."

"Only by fooling the US can we prove that we have stealth capabilities."

"Therefore, maintaining high altitude and flying within THAAD's advantageous detection range is the most scientific approach."

? ? ? ?

? ? ? ?

? ? ? ?

Everyone was confused.

What the hell?

What you're saying is scientifically sound, but it's also very dangerous!

No new aircraft would immediately head straight for the enemy's most advantageous radar.

Yang Xiao quickly objected, saying, "No, you're essentially handing the planes over to the enemy. That's our strongest fighting force!"

Qin Ze laughed immediately after hearing this.

What? You guys?

It's clearly mine.

However, he could understand Yang Xiao's feelings: "Commander, don't worry, nothing will happen."

"It'll be too late if something goes wrong," Yang Xiao explained. "If you dare to expose even a little bit, the Aegis will launch, and that thing is no joke."

"I know," Qin Ze said firmly. "I bet they can't see it."

Yang Xiao: "What if you lose the bet?"

"So what if we lost? What more can I ask for? I already said this was an experiment."

Yang Xiao was speechless: "What are you after?"

Upon hearing this...

Qin Ze's expression suddenly turned serious.

I heard...

"It seems the US has some reservations about our Yunji project."

"Many of them doubted the authenticity of this project."

"Since they have doubts, let them see for themselves."

Yang Xiao: ? ? ?

Wu Changjiang: ? ? ?

Everyone: ? ? ?

at the same time.

Joint Command at Mount Nimitz, Guam.

Jonard sat in his office, his eyelids twitching.

As commander of the Micronesian Joint Task Force, he has the authority to mobilize and coordinate all forces from Andersen Air Force Base, Apra Naval Base, and Braz Marine Corps.

His position is extremely important; it is the core fulcrum of the US Indo-Pacific strategy and the forward base for the US targeting the East Asia region.

Especially this year.

News from the University of Tokyo was frequent, which doubled Jonard's workload.

In addition to normal military command, he was also responsible for coordinating some intelligence system work.

Just like right now.

Sitting in his office was a sharp-looking white man in his forties.

His name is Rod, and he is the head of CA's intelligence department in Micronesia.

"Commander."

"We received clear intelligence from the University of Tokyo's Affairs Center."

"Earlier today, a strange test flight was conducted at Yanliang Airport in the western part of Dongda University."

Jonard remained unmoved upon hearing this.

The Guam base exists to contain Tokyo University.

But that was only strategic.

Tactically, Guam is some distance from Tokyo University, while the Japanese and South Korean bases have a greater advantage.

So Jonard put on an indifferent expression.

"What do you expect me to do about things four thousand kilometers away?"

"Besides, they were just testing aircraft, not missiles."

"Wouldn't it be better to contact the Korean and Japanese offices for something like this?"

Rhodes quickly shook his head and then pulled out the intelligence images.

"General, these are images from earlier taken by our informants near the airport."

Jonard took the picture with a slightly arrogant air.

He originally intended to just glance at it and then ignore it.

But that one glance made his pupils dilate.

next second!

He pulled his glasses out of the drawer and hastily put them on.

Only then did he see it clearly.

The photos are a set of ultra-high-resolution images, which appear to have been taken near Yanliang Airport.

The main body is a gray-black, flat-layout aircraft, which appears to be over twenty meters long.

The nose of the plane was slightly raised, pointing straight to the sky.

Jonard had never seen an airplane like this before.

"WTF!?"

"Did they build the Enterprise?"
