130: Section 130
The debut of the space-air aircraft carrier would definitely shock the entire world.
But people from the Lighthouse Country would never give up.
Therefore, they must be severely hit in the fields they excel at, only then would they feel true despair.
So, even though the pangu space-air aircraft carrier itself was enough to crush the opposing fighters, Qin Zhengtian still chose to let the fighter jets come out and display their technology.
And these fighter jets were equipped with this intelligent sensing system.
The pilots only needed to concentrate entirely on offensive maneuvers.
The fighter jet itself would sense all surrounding obstacles, predict the movements of these objects, and then react preemptively to execute perfect evasive maneuvers.
It was precisely for this reason that during the process of the two sides charging and weaving through each other.
Huaguo's fighter jets could easily and perfectly avoid enemy aircraft, while also preventing collisions with friendly aircraft during flight.
More importantly, all the evasive actions mentioned above were handled by intelligent operations.
The extra energy the pilots had allowed them to perform high-difficulty maneuvers even during such highly dangerous weaving passes.
In any case, if a maneuver was judged likely to result in a collision, even if the pilot issued the command, the fighter jet would not execute it, automatically canceling the action.
Therefore, the pilots only needed to continuously attempt various high-difficulty maneuvers.
The fighter jets automatically executed all possible movements, perfectly avoiding all collisions, achieving an absolute technological crush over the Lighthouse Country pilots... After the weaving pass, Huaguo's fighter jets were completely unscathed.
Following a perfect turnaround, they began heading toward the space carrier; their mission was perfectly completed.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
After the Lighthouse Country fighter jets successively exploded in the air.
Many pilots were forced to parachute out of their fighter jets.
Subsequently, the abandoned fighter jets either plunged into the ocean or exploded while still airborne.
The unluckiest part was that four of the falling planes were headed directly towards their newest aircraft carrier, the Kennedy.
However.
Even though this was the newest type of aircraft carrier, it wasn't equipped with many weapons; most were anti-missile defenses, small, numerous scatter cannons used to detonate incoming missiles early.
But these cannon shells couldn't possibly detonate an entire aircraft!
After firing with all their might at the descending planes, they only managed to detonate two of them in mid-air.
Boom!!!
Following two consecutive loud bangs, the remaining two planes struck the aircraft carrier's deck directly and unstoppably, causing massive commotion and fire.
Immediately, both the Air Force and Navy units began panicking.
Far away in the Lighthouse Country's Military Command Center.
They watched as hundreds of white dots suddenly disappeared from the screen, causing them to frown slightly.
These white dots represented the fighter jets of the Lighthouse Country.
Since they weren't on site, they didn't receive immediate news and assumed the radar was merely being jammed or something similar.
"What's going on? Is it their space-air aircraft carrier's jamming device?"
"How did it suddenly block out 108 of our fighter jets, yet the others remain unaffected?"
"What's the situation at the military exercise? Why hasn't General Jones sent back an update?"
The President watched the professional equipment nearby, feeling quite proud internally.
They still believed that the core technology they possessed was definitely more advanced than Huaguo's.
However.
Suddenly, the Presidential Secretary beside him gasped, shouting out in front of numerous military leaders and high-ranking congressmen.
This made the President frown tightly.
"shit, what are you yelling about! You represent my reputation; how can you act so improperly in a place like this! Don't bother coming to The White House tomorrow!"
Facing the President's reprimand, the Secretary didn't care at all.
Compared to what was happening, losing a job was completely insignificant!
"Mr. President, those hundred-plus fighter jets weren't jammed; they crashed!"
"..."
"..."
"..."
"What!!??"
As the Secretary's words fell, everyone else was stunned.
"What happened?"
"Did Huaguo's space-air aircraft carrier open fire?"
"How dare Huaguo do this? Are they seriously going to start a war with us???"
"Is he trying to cause World War III?"
Seeing the others making wild guesses, the Secretary quickly told everyone to open their phones and watch the live stream.
At this moment, the Secretary realized that these supposedly professional devices were truly inferior to the media's live broadcasts... They were looking at data on the screen but had no idea about the actual situation.
Because the Secretary couldn't understand the technical jargon here, she had secretly been watching the live footage broadcast by the media on the side.
However... she saw the scene where the two sides' aircraft charged toward each other.
The reason for her gasp was seeing the footage of their own Lighthouse Country fighter jets colliding with each other and crashing.
After she displayed the footage to the people present.
The entire command center immediately fell silent.
The President's expression changed, and he burst out in furious curses:
"Holy crab!!!"
"Huaguo actually dares to provoke us like this!?"
"They actually caused us to lose over a hundred fighter jets!?"
Each of those fighter jets was worth two billion Lighthouse Currency!
Furthermore, they were the ones who initially intended to use superior piloting skills and advanced fighter performance to inflict this result on the other side.
Yet, they ended up swallowing the bitter fruit themselves.
How could the President possibly tolerate this insult?
"This is outrageous, Huaguo! We only planned to crash two or three of theirs, but they caused us to crash over a hundred???"
"We must issue a statement, strongly condemn Huaguo's actions, and demand an explanation!!"
"If we do nothing, our allies will certainly look down on us and stop following our lead!"
However, the Presidential Secretary beside him said helplessly, "Mr. President, a high-level official in Huaguo has just released a statement."
"They said that during this military exercise, the process of the two countries' fighter jets charging at each other was an unavoidable accident, but that Huaguo's pilots had operated with extreme care to avoid all collision situations."
The underlying meaning was clearly that although they charged, Huaguo did not touch any of their planes.
If any accidents occurred, they shouldn't blame Huaguo.
If anyone was to blame, it could only be the Lighthouse Country pilots for improper operation; crashing into their own people could not be pinned on Huaguo!
Seeing this statement, everyone present was so furious their faces turned red and purple.
Shame!
This was definitely the greatest shame in the history of the Lighthouse Country!
However, this scene was filmed entirely by the media.
This was the best evidence!
It indeed proved that the accident involving over a hundred planes was caused by their own people crashing into each other.
Huaguo's fighter jets, on the other hand, had zero accidents.
Moreover, their aircraft were more numerous and the space between them was tighter, meaning the probability of an accident should have been higher.
But they perfectly avoided everything!
If the Lighthouse Country were to still hold Huaguo accountable at this point, their reasoning would be completely indefensible, and they would only become a global laughingstock.
The only solution was to swallow their pride and their broken teeth; they absolutely could not demand an explanation or compensation from the other side.
The President's heart rate was probably skyrocketing to 180, and his flushed face made it hard for him to back down... but in the end, he could only say helplessly, "Retreat! Cancel the military exercise!"
They had completely lost face.
If they lingered near Huaguo's maritime border, wouldn't they just look like clowns being watched and mocked?
...At the same time.
Across the entire global society, the eyes of all countries on Blue Star were focused almost entirely on the live military exercise broadcast.
At this moment, they immediately saw the news released by the Lighthouse Country, announcing that the military exercise had ended early due to unforeseen circumstances and that they were returning to the Lighthouse Country.
The citizens of Huaguo who saw this news finally breathed a huge sigh of relief.
Everyone couldn't help but cheer.
