115: Dragon Country has officially entered the club of world's strategic nuclear powers!
General Launch Control Center.
Marshal Xu Yong'an was furious!
He had just received news from the South Pacific direction that the beautiful country, the kangaroo country, the island country, and the Informationland and other countries had formed a joint fleet, all wanting to snatch the data capsule of the Dragon Country's launched missile!
"The White House is even more unwilling than the Mao Bear Empire for us to possess strategic nuclear power!"
"The West's reaction is also within our expectations!"
A cold light flashed in Peng Lin's eyes as he spoke calmly.
Once the Dragon Country possesses the power to threaten the Kremlin, it will no longer need to rely on the beautiful country to counter the Mao Bear Empire internationally.
Therefore, the beautiful country's reaction to the Dragon Country's missile test launch this time was extremely strong.
Due to the current diplomatic relations between the two countries, the beautiful country would not go to war with the Dragon Country's escort naval fleet.
However, it directly formed a joint fleet, preparing to forcibly seize the data capsule of the Dragon Country's test-fired missile.
If the data capsule carried on the missile warhead is snatched by other countries, the Dragon Country's missile development process will not only be fully exposed.
Even core secrets will be leaked!
Enemy countries are very likely to find interception solutions based on these core parameters!
"Fortunately, the outside world has always thought we were test-firing the Dongfeng-4 long-range missile from the South China Sea region towards the South Pacific!"
"If they had known in advance that we were actually launching the Dongfeng-6 intercontinental missile from Jiuquan, these Western countries might really jump the gun and interfere with our successful launch at all costs!"
Marshal Xu Yong'an's eyes also grew cold as he exchanged views with Peng Lin.
But right now, it was a contest between the navy and air force on the open ocean, and even if the Dragon Country's military wanted to retaliate, it was powerless.
And just as Peng Lin and Marshal Xu Yong'an were exchanging views, suddenly, the alarm blared in the General Launch Control Room!
"Detecting foreign electronic interference signals!"
The technical staff reported in a hurry.
"General Command Center, this is the 'Yuanwang' measurement ship!"
"The beautiful country's RC-135 electronic warfare aircraft has quietly approached the edge of the no-fly zone in the South Pacific, attempting to disrupt the missile's guidance system with high-intensity electromagnetic pulses!"
"Please be extremely careful!"
At the same time, the Yuanwang measurement ship also sent news from the South Pacific direction.
"RC-135 electronic warfare aircraft?"
Peng Lin repeated the message from the Yuanwang in a low voice, quite surprised.
The RC-135 electronic warfare aircraft is a reconnaissance and electronic warfare aircraft improved by the beautiful country on the C-135 transport aircraft platform.
It can not only collect communication intelligence, monitor radar and communication signals, but also monitor missile tests, track ballistic missile trajectories using infrared and optical tracking, and record relevant data!
The beautiful country was clearly taking advantage of the fact that the Dragon Country had no fighter jets to escort the Yuanwang, so it directly sent electronic warfare aircraft to monitor the Dragon Country's missile data and interfere with it!
"If the Dongfeng-6 intercontinental missile deviates from the strike area under the interference of the electronic warfare aircraft, then it will be in trouble!"
Marshal Xu Yong'an frowned, his face full of worry.
Now all of the Dragon Country's naval assets have been deployed, and the "Yuanwang" measurement ship is also in that sea area.
If the Dongfeng-6's guidance system is interfered with, and it ultimately strikes other nearby sea areas, the data capsule in the warhead will certainly be snatched by other countries.
"It's not that easy!"
"Activate the Dongfeng-6 Intercontinental Missile's 'Great Wall' anti-interference protocol!"
Peng Lin's face was calm as he gave the order.
At the initial design stage, Peng Lin had considered the impact of electronic interference on the strike accuracy of intercontinental missiles and had made sufficient technical contingency plans for it!
Although the beautiful country's electronic interference could affect the Dongfeng-6's guidance system, its effect was limited!
"Yes, Comrade General Commander!"
The technical staff immediately responded, constantly operating on the main console.
The Dongfeng-6's onboard computer instantly switched to an encrypted frequency band, with inertial guidance and starlight correction dual-system redundant verification, and the trajectory was precisely corrected like a surgeon's knife!
Although the beautiful country's interference signals surged in like a tide, they were all blocked as if they had hit an invisible iron wall!
The "frequency hopping-spread spectrum" composite anti-interference module designed by Peng Lin for the Dongfeng-6, at this moment, every millisecond of command transmission was encrypted with 256 bits, without any flaws!
On the 3D simulation map, the Dongfeng-6 flew along its predetermined trajectory for 30 minutes, finally reaching the target area!
"Warhead re-entering the atmosphere!"
The technician's voice trembled.
On the screen, the warhead plunged at Mach 20, and the plasma interference in the blackout zone made the signal intermittent!
Suddenly, a dazzling white light pierced through the clouds, and the warhead released the data capsule at an altitude of ten thousand meters, its parachute swaying violently in the strong winds, like a lone boat in a storm!
At the same time, Marshal Xu Yong'an clenched his fists!
He wanted to shout loudly, but he forcibly held it back!
The Dongfeng-6 intercontinental missile test launch was successful, and the warhead accurately landed in the target sea area!
The Dragon Country successfully possessed an intercontinental missile with a range of 18,000 kilometers, officially declaring itself a strategic nuclear power!
However, the Dongfeng-6's test launch mission was not yet over!
Because the data capsule had not yet been recovered!
The data capsule contains flight trajectory and ballistic data, engine operating status, thermal protection data, and guidance and control system data, which can be said to be the "flight laboratory" of an intercontinental missile!
This concerns the Dragon Country's improvements and development for the mass production of the Dongfeng-6!
Only when the data capsule is brought back to the Dragon Country's warship can this test launch mission be considered a complete success!
Peng Lin glanced at Marshal Xu Yong'an, and then looked at an independent red button on the control panel.
The Dragon Country's air force and navy are still too weak!
It made him worry!
The Dongfeng-6 has now been successfully launched. If the data capsule falls into foreign hands, Peng Lin, even if he doesn't want these data, will activate the data capsule's self-destruct program!
...Meanwhile, in the South Pacific.
After the Dongfeng-6 intercontinental missile's warhead accurately landed in the target sea area, the warships of various countries fell into a state of frenzy!
The beautiful country's anti-submarine aircraft frantically deployed sonar buoys, attempting to locate the data capsule's landing point!
But the Yuanwang measurement ship was faster, accurately calculating the data capsule's landing position based on the program designed by Peng Lin!
"Data capsule splashed down! Coordinates: 165°22′ East longitude, 12°18′ South latitude!"
The Yuanwang's radio waves were almost drowned out by interference noise, but it still transmitted to the surrounding escort warships!
Two Dragon Country frigates specialized in salvage had been waiting for a long time, and they immediately rushed to the landing point!
On the outer perimeter of the sea area, the beautiful country's destroyer, seeing the data capsule land on the sea, rushed directly despite being blocked, its bow plowing through huge waves to forcibly squeeze through!
"Ram it!"
The 051 Yinchuan ship did not hesitate, directly speeding up to block it!
At the final critical moment, the beautiful country's "Spruance" class destroyer chose to evade!
Although a 3,000-ton Dragon Country destroyer colliding with their 7,000-ton behemoth might result in the smaller ship sinking.
However, in a high-speed collision, anything can happen.
The captain of the "Spruance" class destroyer dared not gamble, so he chose to evade!
And it was this evasion that finally bought the Dragon Country's escort frigates 30 seconds to deploy their salvage boats!
The data capsule, having fallen into the sea, floated up and released a dye, coloring the surrounding sea red!
Four Dragon Country sailors jumped into the turbulent waters, precisely pushing the data capsule towards the small boat!
Immediately, another salvage boat nearby picked up the sailors.
And the small boat carrying the data capsule immediately sailed rapidly towards the frigate!
..."Data capsule successfully recovered!"
The Yuanwang's radio waves penetrated the interference and returned to Jiuquan!
In the General Launch Control Room, hundreds of technical staff were in tears!
The Dongfeng-6 intercontinental missile test launch mission was successfully completed!
The Dragon Country officially entered the club of world strategic nuclear powers!
Immediately, Xinhua News Agency issued an announcement to the world:
"The Dongfeng-6 intercontinental missile test launch was a complete success, with a range of 18,000 kilometers and an accuracy error of less than 300 meters!"
This short sentence was like a thunderclap, shaking the entire world!
