After launch, an intercontinental ballistic missile can be divided into three flight stages, the ascent stage, the mid-flight stage and the re-entry stage.
Theoretically speaking, it is technically easiest to intercept within a few minutes of the ascent stage, because this stage is the easiest to detect and the speed of the missile is the slowest, but it is the most difficult to implement because the land-based intercontinental missile
Ballistic missiles are launched from a country's homeland, and it is almost impossible for an interceptor to detect and approach the launch site within a few minutes.
During the re-entry stage, the maximum speed of the submersible warhead will even reach 25 times the speed of sound, and it will be accompanied by decoy bombs, which is already very difficult.
Therefore, the most realistic option is mid-course interception. Several interceptor missiles are launched from missile sites more than a thousand kilometers away, and guided by long-range radars and high-orbit satellites, they fly towards the two R-36Ms that are still adjusting their flight attitude.
Combined with the data sent back from the forefront, the interception success rate will be very high through calculation. Everyone is nervously looking at the data and images on the big screen.
"We're in, you'd better get the launch termination code quickly." Price's 22nd Regiment and the Delta Alloy team have entered the underground launch center through the launch silo.
The 1st Marine Reconnaissance Company is still working with Kamarov's men to attack the outer fire points and prepare to occupy the security center of the base. If successful, they can control the entire base and reduce the pressure on the SAS to infiltrate.
"B-6, we are sending you the termination code. Before the missiles reach the east coast, you still have 11 minutes for them to self-destruct in the air. Over."
"Copy that." John Price replied calmly, making people think that this was just a training mission as usual.
The progress of Price and others in the underground passage is extremely slow, which makes people wonder whether they can complete the task within the time limit.
Zakayev's loyalists used the terrain of underground bunkers to resist, causing the coalition forces to suffer very heavy casualties. In this small terrain, it is difficult for heavy weapons to take advantage, and more grenades and grenade launchers will be used.
The other side also makes the same choice, and the side on the defensive has a natural advantage here.
The 22nd Regiment also began to suffer casualties. Price's expression remained unchanged. The L119A1 in his hand kept firing, and countless bullet casings were scattered on the ground. "Sandman, blow open the door and go around the kitchen next to it."
"Understood." Delta Force is trained by the SAS. The two forces often exchange training together and cooperate very skillfully.
In low-Earth orbit nearly 1,500 kilometers above the ground, the two ballistic missiles have completed attitude adjustment, their fairings have separated, and the rear booster vehicle has begun ignition.
Just when they were about to fly over the target at high speed, five interceptor missiles hit them at a higher speed. In the quiet space, several high-orbiting satellites were watching this scene.
There was no fire, no explosion, and even if someone could stand nearby, they would not hear any sound. Everyone in the OTAN command center looked at the satellite picture in shock.
"What happened?", the supreme commander asked the question on everyone's mind.
In a military base deep in the desert, everyone cheered, like a catharsis of emotions after high tension, "Successful."
"The interceptor hit accurately." There was a tremor in the commander's calm voice.
Xu Chuan sat on the Mi-171, looking at the vision in the sky from the open hatch, and said, "I'm sorry." Now he understood what the person Xu Zhengyang asked him to pick up was for.
Yes.
What he did was a bit awesome. It not only solved the problem, but also demonstrated his strength to a certain extent. You must know that even America has not succeeded several times in the mid-stage anti-missile attack.
Xu Chuan smiled. This move will cause headaches for several countries for a long time, because this is not a successful experiment, but an actual combat, which means that existing intercontinental ballistic missiles no longer pose a threat.
This will cause all nuclear-armed countries to start investing huge manpower and material resources in weapon upgrades in the next few years, otherwise they will fall into passivity.
He didn't know where the people he wanted to pick up were yet, but he wasn't in a hurry. It would take at least a day for these people to reach the nearest city on foot. He had enough time to finish the things at hand first.
Five people wore Russian military uniforms and took two helicopters. Well, the money was spent, the service was very good, and they also had a full set of identification documents and passage documents issued by the Eastern Theater Command.
Although this does not allow them to wander around in the blocked area, there is still no problem for people pretending to be the headquarters to move around in the periphery.
The crew members didn't care what they were going to do. If Xu Chuan hadn't sternly refused, the pilot would have planned to drink a glass of vodka with him.
The battle in the military base did not stop because the ballistic missile was intercepted, but it was completely different from before. After confirming that there would be no third missile launched, Price was no longer in a hurry to break into the launch control room.
He was waiting for the Marine Corps and the Russian army to take over the security center, and then rely on the absolute advantage of his own numbers to carry out the final attack. Zakayev would definitely not be able to run away this time. He no longer had a deadly weapon in his hand, so he would not
Got chips.
"B-6, this is the Marine Corps. We have captured the security center and gained control. However, Zakayev is trying to escape now, and the Russians have already caught up." The Marines in the security center saw through the surveillance system.
Zakayev was running towards the parking lot.
"There should be an evacuation channel in the launch center." Price made an instant judgment. He had no time to question why this road was not included in the structural diagram provided by Russia. "Find a way out for us."
"Understood, I have sent you the coordinates of the parking lot."
Price put a new magazine on the rifle and said, "Follow me, let's go." The battle has already progressed to this point, and it is impossible to let him run away again. The grudge between the two people for many years needs to be settled.
On two helicopters that had been circling nearby for some time, Xu Chuan checked the map with the GPS. Below the plane was the only road nearby, which ran through the entire mountain. There were tunnels not far away. "It seems to be here."
"
The dilemma for Xu Chuan was that he could only guess at the location of the last scene, "Bell, you are thinking too much. I still don't think Price needs your help." John Smith actually didn't agree with coming here.
How could he agree, even though he and Price were very familiar with each other, because Umbrella had no chance of participating in this battle.
The current situation has explained everything. If you spend a lot of dollars, you can only wander around for a while at most. They really don't understand Xu Chuan's behavior.
'Oh, what do you know? This is feelings.' Xu Chuan complained. His mentality is relatively simple, and he does everything he can to obey fate. Moreover, now that the two missiles in the sky have been solved in an unprecedented way, other plots are probably
It has long been changed beyond recognition.
This military operation was much larger than in the game. The Russian army directly invested two motorized infantry brigades. Although there were only three battalions participating in the front-line battle, all kinds of heavy equipment and weapons were brought out. Although the number of the coalition forces was small,
Yes, but they are all elites from several countries. It is hard to say whether the final scene will happen.
Just when he was lamenting the uncertainty of the world, the guys from Price drove the stolen military vehicles and chased Zakayev who was escaping, still raising the flag.
"It's so fun, man, but what's the temperature in here? Come on, the beer should be ice cold!"
"Maybe a beer bar, or plain water. Let's try a pint of dark beer."
"When I return to China, I will definitely let you see it."
"But I bet we'll get to London first."
"At least the world is not destroyed, no matter what."
Listen, is this what you should say before the battle begins? Like an old general on the stage, his back is full of flags.
