Chapter 1,115 The Form of War

Giles guessed correctly, it was indeed a microwave weapon that caused them to be temporarily blinded.

This microwave weapon is a trial work of Shelter 27. It is called a "strong light suppression weapon" in the laser array air defense system. It has been used by various countries as a "peaceful expulsion" method to drive away illegally entered fighters.

However, this weapon only existed for a short time and was thrown into the grave of history by the end of the 21st century. Future wars are almost dominated by drones. Even if manned aircraft have never been eliminated, they have gradually become a supporting role in air combat.

Not to mention anything else, a fighter plane flying at Mach 10 would have an acceleration of more than ten Gs if it casually turned in the air. If the turn was too wide, the pilot's eyes would be squeezed out. No matter how fast the human brain reacts, there is a limit, and it is far inferior to the response ability of AI.

From identification to locking to destruction, while the pilot is still confirming the target, the AI ​​may even have calculated the ballistic trajectory.

However, for today's countries where sixth-generation aircraft are still in the exploratory stage, this weapon can be called an artifact in air combat, which is equivalent to blindfolding the opponent's pilot during an air combat.

Of course, the so-called "artifact" here refers more to a deterrent.

If placed in actual combat, enemy aircraft have already flown within the defense radius of the laser array air defense system. Directly using high-power lasers to attack the enemy aircraft's wings, ammunition depots, and fuel tanks is far more efficient than "blindfolding" .

"It's perfect." In the Crescent Island military base, looking at the two F-35Cs scurrying around on the holographic screen, Jiang Chen couldn't help but admire, and looked at Ivan standing opposite him, "Flagship Captain who is it?"

Ivan replied immediately.

"Captain of the Anga, Colonel Lei Zheng."

"This Lei is just a talented person, and he handled this matter well."

With admiration on his lips, Jiang Chen had already figured out how to deal with this video.

Aren't you planning a military exercise? Okay! Aren't you planning to flex your muscles to your Asian allies? no problem! Not only will we not cause any trouble for you, we will also support you!

I won’t comment on the plane’s performance for now, but the maneuvers of the two pilots were pretty good! Star Ring Trade can testify that they definitely did it with their eyes closed at the time! As for why they close their eyes?

Hehe, this is a long story...

At this moment, Jiang Chen was thinking about only one thing.

That is when this card should be played to achieve its maximum effect.

…

It has been more than a week since Lu Wei returned to China. During this period, Lu Wei has not rested. He is either called to a meeting by this department or goes to the leader's office to make a report. From the grassroots to the central government, everyone seems to be on a clock, but they can't find a unified direction.

He understands the atmosphere of impetuosity and contradiction that permeates the top leadership of the Republic, and he also believes that it should be the same in all countries in the world at this moment.

Whether to make history or become history, no one is ready.

The opponent is an unsuspecting extraterrestrial civilization. Apart from knowing that the opponent possesses powerful biotechnology, the earth's civilization knows nothing about it. However, Lu Wei also knew very well that he could not be too demanding on this matter. It was not easy to muster the courage to fight against an extraterrestrial civilization that could already cross the galaxy.

Of course, his exhaustion was not all due to the meeting, but also came from other places.

Those at the top seek a way out, while those at the bottom seek benefits.

A certain semi-state-owned aerospace technology company has approached him twice, hoping to get some information from him and learn in advance the development direction of the Earth's fleet in the future. Which ship type should be prioritized for development? Should we focus on engines or weapons? Or armor, or even a shield?

But it's not that easy...

Not to mention Lu Wei, not even the Earth Fleet himself knows where he will go in the future. Maybe that man sees further than others, but he is not a god after all, and he will be equally confused about the more distant future.

Astronautics and astronomy, which were once unpopular, have transformed into one of the hottest subjects today. Not only those businessmen full of money, but also many academic people found him and sold him their own theories. Various papers were shoved in front of him, but he begged him to take a look at them.

Some of these people are doing it for fame, and some are doing it for profit.

In these days, professors may not necessarily engage in scientific research, but even graduate students can write papers. Many universities even use SCI papers as a rigid indicator for evaluating academic performance. In such an environment, anyone can stand up and give guidance.

For those scholars and experts, if their ideas are finally favored by the Earth Defense Alliance committee members, it will mean that they will have the opportunity to become a guest of the Earth Defense Alliance committee, or even a technical advisor, even if they are in universities or research If you succeed again in the institute, you can suddenly become a leader in academic circles, and even leave your name in history.

However, the source of the contradiction lies in.

Everyone thinks they are right, and can even say something reasonable.

But it is too easy to falsify this. Just look at the science fiction novels of the early twentieth century and look at the year 2000 written by those authors, and you will know how unreliable human beings' paper-based fantasies are.

These days, Lu Wei is either in meetings or dealing with piles of papers and research reports.

Sometimes he really wanted to stuff all these things into the shredder, but he couldn't. In his subconscious, he also hoped to see a paper or research report that would light up his eyes and point out a clear path for the Earth Defense Alliance.

To be honest, from his standpoint, he is naturally a supporter of the aircraft carrier battle group doctrine. However, what Wu Changfeng said to him in the elevator made him have a little doubt about his original belief.

Sighing and leaning on the sofa in the living room, Lu Wei rubbed his sore brows, dropped the paper in his hand on the table, and looked at the globe on the window sill.

At this moment, the sound of a key turning was heard at the entrance.

Looking up, when he saw that quirky little head, a kind smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

That was his youngest son, who was in the first grade of elementary school and had just come back from school.

Seeing his father sitting on the sofa, the little guy immediately ran over happily, without even changing his shoes, threw away his schoolbag and climbed onto his father's lap.

"Dad, Dad! Do you work for the Earth Defense Alliance now?" Blinking his innocent big eyes, the little guy shook his arms with admiration.

"So be it." Lu Wei touched his son's head and said with a smile.

It is no secret that he joined the Earth Defense Alliance Committee. CCTV even conducted an exclusive interview with him and Wu Changfeng. However, in the interview, he only briefly mentioned the responsibilities and obligations of the Earth Defense Alliance and other details, and generally stated that the Earth Defense Alliance will form an interstellar fleet to intercept the colonial ships of extraterrestrial civilizations in the Kuiper Belt.

As for the topics discussed at the committee meeting, and even his own status as a committee member, he deliberately downplayed these sensitive issues...

"Great! Our classmates don't believe me and call me a liar." The little guy waved his fists excitedly and continued to look at him with admiration. "Then dad, dad, can you drive a Gundam?"

Gundam?

Lu Wei smiled and shook his head.

Only Gundam is absolutely impossible.

Even so, he couldn't bear to live up to his son's hopeful eyes, so he said in a comforting tone, "Your father is too old and can't fly the Gundam. So, the task of driving the Gundam is left to me." Lele. Lele, promise daddy, you will study hard."

"Can you drive a Gundam by studying hard?" Lele's pupils flashed with excitement.

"Of course!" Lu Wei said with a smile.

After getting the answer in the affirmative, the little guy climbed down from his father's lap and skipped out of the living room, running away like a gust of wind.

Looking at his son's excited back, Lu Wei curled his lips, and a touch of fatherly kindness appeared in his eyes.

Even if it’s to protect the little guy’s smile, at least I can’t let him down...

Thinking this, he shook his head and picked up the papers he had thrown aside.

What does war in space actually look like?

Just when he was puzzled, he suddenly remembered someone.

Someone who might give him the answer. (To be continued.) Activate new URL
