Chapter 1193 New Requirements for Anti-Invisibility

Two days later.

Pentagon.

A routine U.S. defense press conference has come to an end.

With the vigorous second battle of Fallujah at the end of 2004 and the subsequent national elections, the situation in the Mesopotamia Basin has entered a relatively stable stage, at least on the surface.

The White House has also recommitted that in order to "let the boys go home as soon as possible", it will withdraw more than 70% of the troops stationed in this area by 2007.

Although Mr. Bush's promises have been almost completely discredited in recent years, this time, thanks to effective media control by the coalition authorities, the photos and videos that were eventually revealed focused entirely on the peaceful and peaceful life inside the Green Zone. The situation is still deceptive enough for these office media in the United States.

It is precisely because of this that this press conference was so calm that it was a bit boring. There were only a few relatively sharp questions, and the spokesman Brian Whitman blocked his mouth with the promotional materials he had already prepared.

There was a relatively relaxed atmosphere throughout the venue.

Many reporters looked at the situation around them and even started packing their things in advance to prepare for get off work.

However, at this moment, an Air Force officer wearing a brigadier general's uniform suddenly appeared from a small door on the side, then walked quickly to Whitman, lowered his head and whispered a few words to the latter.

Because of the distance, no one else heard the conversation between the two.

But almost everyone noticed that the muscles on Whitman's face and the corners of his mouth twitched for a moment.

Obviously, there must be something big going on to make this experienced spokesman react so violently, and at short notice.

Many reporters who had put away their tools just now quickly took out pens and pens or computers when they saw this.

Sure enough, after the Air Force Commodore left, Whitman adjusted his mood slightly and spoke in a calm tone again:

"Everyone, I just received new information."

At this point, he paused deliberately to give the reporters below time to record and click the shutter, and then continued:

"The Air Force has decided to dispatch the F22 fighter jets to Kadena Base as soon as possible after they officially form initial operational capabilities next month to participate in the 'Safe Skies-2005' military exercise jointly conducted with the Air Self-Defense Force to demonstrate how we protect our allies. The determination and ability to be safe…”

The news was not long, but it was like a thunder on the ground.

The media from all walks of life, who were a little sleepy just now, suddenly fell into excitement as if they had been given a shot of chicken blood.

…

"Of course he wants to threaten us!"

In a conference room at the Air Force Headquarters, political commissar Deng Changyou slapped the table on the spot when faced with this sudden news:

In ordinary people's minds, the chief officer of the command line is often more temperamental and has a more radical stance, while the chief officer of the political line is relatively mild and often plays a cooling role.

But in fact, both are equal military officers, and their behavior is more affected by their personality and environment.

For example, now, as the commander, Qiao Chenqing quickly held down the old man to prevent the conference table that had been used for many years from losing -1 HP:

"In accordance with the response principles given by our superiors at the beginning of the year, we cannot take actions that actively intensify or escalate conflicts, but we must also ensure that we respond reciprocally as soon as possible after the other party launches a provocation to ensure that national sovereignty and dignity are not violated. "Now the fourth-generation fighter jets of the US military are out of Okinawa. If, as their spokesperson said, they are only conducting joint exercises in the surrounding waters, then we will respond with a joint sea and air exercise of comparable scale. You do your thing, and we When you play my role, it’s best not to interfere with the flow of the well.”

"However, we have to consider another scenario."

Qiao Chenqing narrowed his eyes slightly, and his gaze instantly became sharp:

"The opponent is taking advantage of the stealth capabilities of the F22 fighter jet to conduct tests near our country's airspace, and even try to carry out fast-forward and fast-out invasions."

The atmosphere in the entire venue became tense because of his straightforward words.

"So, we must find a way to track them in advance...or at least detect the traces of these aircraft in advance. Once we find that they are approaching, we will send aviation units to interfere and drive them away!"

For a moment, everyone in the gathering lowered their heads and pondered.

Anti-stealth again.

It’s that old subject again.

Of course some of the people sitting here know that six years ago, our country achieved extremely impressive results in the field of anti-stealth warfare.

Part of the "Kansas Ghost" is still preserved in an archive that is not open to the public.

But after all, there is a huge factor of luck.

Moreover, the improved radar steadily discovered the B2 entering the attack route and preparing to drop bombs almost at a close distance.

This is obviously not enough for the form of struggle over the East China Sea——

For one thing, it was impossible to allow enemy aircraft to fly too close to the coastline.

On the other hand, the F22 has stronger stealth capabilities and maneuverability, leaving less reaction time for the aviation force.

Therefore, new and higher requirements have also been put forward for anti-stealth operations.

The Air Force radar equipment has naturally been upgraded in the past few years, but it is not a complete transformation after all. Most of the real new generation equipment is in the critical stage of research and development and is unlikely to be put into use in one or two months.

Moreover, in the absence of stealth aircraft as a sparring partner, no one dares to guarantee how much effect it can play against an unknown opponent.

After a few minutes of silence, Li Jianqiang, deputy director of the Air Force Equipment Research Institute and professor of the Air Force Early Warning Academy, gently raised his hand.

Qiao Chenqing signaled him to speak freely.

"Report to the chief, in the past few years, I have been studying ways to use existing equipment to maximize anti-stealth capabilities based on the two results in the Balkan Peninsula and the theory proposed by General Chang... Academician Chang."

Li Jianqiang replied:

"In general, when facing small RCS targets, if two of the four single-base radars only use the receiving function and the other two only use the transmitting function to form a composite dual-base radar network, then under the appropriate deployment parameters, the effective detection range will be increased by more than 45% compared to the four radars used separately!"
