Take Off My Aviation Era

Chapter 597: It's so simple

e-8 United Star.

A support command platform invested by the US military in the Gulf War. In public information, there are very few introductions to this model. People only know that there is such an aircraft, but what it does and what role it plays But I can't tell.

Compared with f-16, f-15, e-3, e-2 and other star airplanes, it is almost transparent, and it is a low-key mess.

But it is such a model that does not show the mountains and does not leak water, but it is the key to the victory of the US military in the Gulf War. The reason for this is simple, because this model is the most core key node of the US military air-ground battle.

If the e-3 early warning aircraft is equipped with radar on the aircraft, it is used to accurately detect air targets in order to achieve early warning and air interception.

Then the e-8 joint star concentrates its attention on the ground, and uses the simple principle of standing high and looking far to provide the army troops with real-time adjustment, movement and deployment of enemy ground forces, and coordinate them based on this. The air force's air support to the army, fire coverage and even necessary tactical nuclear strikes.

In other words, with the presence of the e-8 joint star, the U.S. Army can achieve one-way transparency on the foggy battlefield. No matter how sophisticated and cunning the enemy is, the map is not fully open to the U.S. Army, it really does what it wants. You can do it whatever you want, and you can do it whatever you want. It's as simple as playing a real-time strategy game.

In the ground battle at the end of the Gulf War, the U.S. military was amazingly devastated. No matter how the Iraqi army adjusted or blocked it, the U.S. military could respond in advance, turning the so-called encounter into an effortless battle of annihilation.

Why?

The e-8 joint star in the sky has been hovering over the battlefield non-stop, and every move of the Iraqi army has long been in sight. Want to ambush? Want to engage in ambush? In the end, they were all played by the U.S. military as gophers.

Because of this, in the summary after the Gulf War, people of insight in China compared the e-8 joint star to the multiplier of the US army's ground power, which at least increased the attack power of the US army by more than three times.

This makes many military leaders in the country envy. A single aircraft can increase combat effectiveness by more than three times. Who doesn't feel itchy?

We must know that under normal circumstances, the combat effectiveness of the ground forces needs to be increased by multiple levels, requiring all-round efforts in equipment, personnel, and training. This investment is amazing.

Not to mention, the replacement of advanced tanks and armored vehicles is not a small number.

In contrast, one or two planes plus some advanced communication and electronic equipment can achieve the same purpose. It cannot be said that it is a very cost-effective business.

But what is the principle of this kind of aircraft, how the air-ground contact is coordinated, how the node functions are operated, and so on. Nothing is mentioned in the public information of the US military, and even academic technical papers are secretive in this regard.

On the other hand, at the media level, the U.S. military's air-to-ground combat, and the boasting of joint operations have reached a peak, and even on this planet, no one can defeat the powerful U.S. military except for the invasion of aliens.

As a result, some media boasted in Haikou, claiming that the US military can deal with two large-scale wars at the same time and can easily win.

Because the technology of the US military has reached the peak of human history, and even the US military stands still and allows other countries to catch up. There is no need to think about it for two to thirty years.

Then there is a list of various technical terms and various unthinkable English abbreviations. It is called an endless stream. It can be seen that the leaders of the domestic army are stunned, so that they start to wonder if they are uniting e-8. Star thinks simple.

Until this exercise, it was learned from the head of the headquarters that the airborne troops used a similar model. As for the effect, the Red Army, which was played by the airborne troops, quickly seized a few key gaps under unfavorable circumstances and hit a wave. If you counterattack and retreat smoothly, you will know that the effect is not generally good, but rather good.

So people who understand the principle of the e-8 combined star are not calm. Those who don't know it, and what they know from other people at this time is also strange.

There is such a good thing?

However, the most shocking is the scholar-type officers who have studied foreign military for a long time, because the head of the headquarters made it very clear just now that the airborne troops use a civilian aircraft.

Shouldn't such high-end and high-end combat key nodes be dedicated military products? How could it be a civilian aircraft? U.S. strategic research journals; tactical academic journals; all kinds of academic articles do not say that e-8 United Stars are classified military equipment, each is a cross-age product built by the United States with huge investment, and there is no substitute for it. How... Airborne troops can do it with a civilian aircraft?

The heads of those scholar-type officers were a little messy, and they only felt that their three views were a bit subverted. They frowned and thought for a long time. After all, they couldn't think of one reason. So a scholar-type officer summoned the courage to ask the head of the headquarters. Said: "Chief, did you just say that the Red Army's mini "United Star" is a civilian aircraft?"

The head of the headquarters turned his head when he heard the words and looked at the academic officers behind him. He immediately understood what they were confused about. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard a series of fast footsteps. When he turned his head, he saw a tall man. An officer wearing a camouflage uniform and a steel helmet ran over, came to the head of the headquarters, stood at attention, stopped, and performed a standard military strength: "Report to the head, Red Army commander Zheng Quanli reports, please instruct."

The head of the headquarters nodded: "You did a good job." After saying that he gave up, he said to Zheng Quanli: "We have a few cadres here who have some doubts about your application of terrain\environmental protection integrated detectors to guide ground operations. You can help Let's answer it."

"Yes!" Zheng Quanli immediately replied.

The head of the headquarters smiled and pointed at Zheng Quanli and said to the academic officers: "The actual user is here~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He has the right to speak better than anyone. It is better to ask him if you have any questions."

An officer nodded hurriedly, and immediately repeated the question just now without waiting: "Do you really use civilian aircraft to guide ground operations?"

"Yes, the terrain\environmental protection comprehensive detector under Ascendas General Aviation also assisted the State Environmental Protection Agency in environmental protection detection of the water system around Beijing three days ago, and provided the State Environmental Protection Agency with a large amount of environmental protection data.

This national defense mobilization exercise also recruited this aircraft. After simple coordination and modification, the communication system can be smoothly connected to our Focus-2 UAV command and control cabin to form a relatively complete air-to-ground communication system. Complete the erection of the air-ground system... Comrade... Uh... Leader? What are you..."

Zheng Quanli didn't think much, so he didn't hesitate to say it, but as he said it, he felt something was wrong, because the man in front of him suddenly straightened his eyes and turned pale, as if he was possessed by something, Zheng Quanli How could he go on and ask quickly.

The result was okay. The scholar-type officer was suddenly trembling with excitement: "Simple modification, environmentally friendly civilian aircraft, drone command cabin... is it so simple?"
