Chapter 1529: The Perfect Decoy Warhead
The cold warhead naturally wouldn't pay attention to Carter who was looking worried at the moment.
As soon as the warheads of the twenty-four V-2FJDD anti-ship ballistic missiles were opened, five inflating balloons floated out of each warhead.
The warhead needs high-altitude guidance before re-entering the atmosphere, searches for the target and determines the relative distance, and adjusts the ballistic trajectory when re-entering the atmosphere for high-altitude gliding. Guidance requires the warhead to detect the target, so it cannot be completely shielded, and the antenna window must be left.
Therefore, the warhead cannot achieve the level of stealth, and the decoy bomb has become the best target to confuse the opponent.
But in order to prevent the decoy balloon from interfering with itself, and enable it to have all the signals similar to warheads, it is not a very simple matter.
Russia is the most complete country in the world that has the ability to develop decoy warheads.
Even in the United States, the research results in this area are far from ideal.
The missiles and decoy bombs of the Red Police Corps are quite clever.
When these released balloons expand, the temperature inside the balloons also increases unevenly.
The technology for detecting missile warheads is not just radar, but also the infrared system of remote sensing satellites. Because of the need to deceive radar, deceiving the infrared system is also a top priority.
The surface of the anti-ship ballistic missile decoy balloon is coated with a metal film and covered with the same radar absorbing paint. By installing the counterweight to make it produce different nutation angles and precession periods, the process of controlling the release of the balloon from the mother cabin forms different tumbling periods. To cool the balloon, install an electric heating film inside the balloon, set different heating temperatures for the electric heating film at different positions, and keep the difference in heating temperature between balloons.
Such a balloon is a differentiated bait, and the warhead also has the property of anti-simulation bait, and in order to have enough space and carry weight, the weight of the missile warhead is strictly controlled, and the thrust is strengthened compared with ordinary ballistic missiles. It has a surplus load of 100 kilograms in spare time, so that it has enough carrying weight to install radar jammers and other equipment after it carries the balloon.
Therefore, the cost of Cai Ruichen's production of anti-ship ballistic missiles is actually comparable to those of conventional ballistic missiles with a range of five to six thousand kilometers.
For the warhead of the missile, a special design is also carried out. The heat shield is a cooling barrier made of a metal shell. A cavity is formed between the inner and outer walls, and liquid nitrogen is passed through to cover the entire warhead, making the outer surface of the warhead Cooled to the point where it is difficult for infrared seekers to detect.
Cooling the warhead is the most critical point to break through the anti-missile system.
Terminal anti-missiles rely on radar and infrared to lock incoming missiles.
For the U.S. sea-based Standard-3 missile, if the interceptor bomb can detect ordinary warheads at a distance of 300 kilometers, the detection distance of the cooled warhead will be less than three kilometers, which is visible to the Standard-3 interceptor missile. cannot be found at all.
In order to prevent the warhead from reflecting the earth's glow to the interceptor and exposing the target, the V-2FJDD infrared stealth guided warhead is deployed in a stable spin shape that rotates slowly around the axis of symmetry when the missile is released, and is oriented in a certain direction when re-entering the atmosphere. Its axis of symmetry is in line with its velocity vector.
However, the U.S. military still has the ability to identify true and false warheads, and that is to use a sound early warning system to distinguish layers.
The U.S. sea-based mid-range interception system mainly relies on X-band tracking radars and phased array radars to identify targets and guide missiles to send interceptors into interception orbits. Its main identification methods include: feature identification, which estimates the flight attitude, structural features, and material features of the target through the amplitude, phase, and polarization frequency features and changes of the radar echo signal.
At this moment, when the anti-ship ballistic missile warhead releases the fake warhead, the US military is also making the final effort for this.
"Using high-resolution radar imaging to obtain the structural feature information of the target,...the target determined by the above-mentioned different measures is used as a threat target, compared with the database, and the observation comprehensively judges the target type..."
The infrared equipment measures the three parameters of the warhead and the decoy in the middle of the trajectory as the basis for optical identification in the middle of the trajectory, namely the surface temperature of the target and its rate of change, the radiation intensity of the target and its rate of change, and the effective radiation area of the target. The value is connected with the motion characteristics and radiation characteristics of the measured target, combined with prior recognition judgment and algorithm, to identify true and false warheads.
Among them, the temperature and the rate of change of radiation intensity are the key parameters of the identification criterion, because they reflect the physical and dynamic characteristics of the target in a concentrated manner. Especially when the ground cannot provide the relative position of the target-interceptor and the infrared optical system cannot measure the distance, it is the only identification standard.
However, the United States is doomed to be disappointed. The anti-missile capabilities of the United States, or the detection foundation established by all anti-missile systems in the world, is like a shield.
The missiles at the base are spears designed for this shield, in order to pierce the shield.
The anti-missile system of the United States should not be underestimated, and this is what Cai Ruichen has been telling himself all the time.
But he also wants to try to see how perfect the US shield can hold up.
The missiles of the Red Police Corps have super breakthrough capabilities, and the design of the decoy bombs is aimed at most of the world's detection capabilities.
When the Red Police Corps attacked Israel, the United States should have realized it.
After all, Israel also has a very advanced air defense and anti-missile system, but when facing the missile attack of the Iraqi-Syrian Federation, the sense of powerlessness is enough to make the US military arouse great vigilance.
Regrettably, the U.S. military is indeed very careful, and even plans to deploy X-band radars in the Indian Ocean, but in the face of menacing missiles, all of this is too late.
This is the biggest difference between the Iraqi-Syrian Federation and the United States. In the Iraqi-Syrian Federal Government, whether it is military or political, Cai Ruichen belongs to the supreme position of Gan Gang's arbitrariness.
The United States is completely different. It often takes as long as one or two years for a policy change or troop mobilization.
Many things need to be passed, and the efficiency of the government will slow down if there are too many people. This is the biggest difference between the two sides.
But even if the U.S. military can really deploy a complete anti-missile system in the Indian Ocean, it will be helpless in the face of advanced decoy bombs like the Iraqi-Syrian Federation.
Because all simulated decoy balloons, whether it is radar reflection data or infrared data, are no different from real warheads, and the aluminum alloy camouflage on the outside is exactly the same as real warheads.
With the current US anti-missile means, it can be said that it is almost impossible to find real warheads. The only thing that can be done is to intercept all multiple warheads. (To be continued.) Enable new URL
