Great Power Technology

Above Belgrade, at an altitude of 8,000 meters.

An EA-18G electronic warfare aircraft is flying forward alone, and they neither know their position nor can they judge their direction.

Just half an hour ago, the plane broke into Srbija's airspace together with the two escorting F-35s. They paralyzed the air defense radar system on the border and passed through the open door of Srbija without anyone else, heading towards the capital Belgrade. Fly away.

Everything went smoothly. They didn't even hear any signals from Srbija on the radio, nor did they encounter any fighter planes trying to intercept them. The other side didn't seem to notice them at all.

The two F-35s relied on their superior stealth performance to conduct forward reconnaissance cruises. This was originally a very routine tactical action, but this action put them into a huge crisis.

The reason for the crisis is very simple and can be summarized in just one sentence, that is:

They lost contact.

Yes, this electronic warfare aircraft equipped with the world's most advanced electronic information system lost contact with its escort aircraft, command headquarters, and aircraft carrier formation.

However, their difficulties are not just as simple as losing contact. Communication interruption, data link interruption, radar blindness, weapon system loss of control, photoelectric detection system loss of control, and navigation system failure.

All of this is as if their electronic interference operations are all fed back to themselves.

This is something that should never happen, but it is what it is. Even though the electronic countermeasures operator on the plane has cursed "hell" countless times, the situation still has not improved at all.

They have become de facto blind and can only wander aimlessly in this vast airspace, hoping to encounter the two missing F-35s and then have them lead them back.

"Robert, I really don't know what happened. Our electronic systems have all failed. The only explanation is that we encountered electronic interference, but this is not reasonable at all."

"This is too sudden. Srbija does not have such technology at all. I even wonder if we have flown into a space that does not belong to our world?"

After a final attempt to restore communications, the electronic countermeasures operator in the back seat leaned forward helplessly and yelled at the driver in the front seat.

"You don't need to ask me, this is your specialty. If you think we have encountered electronic interference, then we have encountered electronic interference. What should we do now?"

The driver in the front seat also roared back to him, but his voice was drowned in the huge roar of the cabin and sounded a little unclear.

"I don't know! But we have no other choice now! We have to lower our altitude!"

"Lower altitude?! No! Our mission is not completed yet!"

"Don't worry about this bullshit mission! If we continue like this, we will crash because we run out of fuel!"

"David, we have no idea where we are now. If we lower our altitude, we will be completely exposed to the opponent's anti-aircraft firepower!"

"You have to understand, this is their airspace, they can shoot us down at any time!"

Robert anxiously checked the fuel gauge. Fortunately, the fuel gauge on this aircraft was mechanical, otherwise they might not even know how long they could fly.

After hearing his answer, David frowned and pondered for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and said:

"We can't control that much now! We are definitely being watched, but now we don't even know where they are! We must lower our altitude and return in the visual direction!"

"This is the final decision! I am the air commander, and my orders shall prevail!"

".Okay, now lower the altitude."

Robert reluctantly accepted David's order. As a driver, he certainly knew the danger of blindly lowering the altitude in this situation, but he also knew that David's reasons were completely correct.

They have now lost all their electronic equipment. If they don't try to return, the longer time passes, the greater the danger. The time they spend cruising in the air is just the time they wait for death to come.

However, what he couldn't figure out was why all this was happening?

Who is interfering with their electronic systems, and how is it successful?

Srbija? This is impossible, let alone electronic countermeasures, they can't even use the most basic data link system.

I actually saw the news from the combat briefing that the ** was transporting equipment to Srbija, but all those equipment were air defense missile systems, and it was impossible to achieve such an effect.

Taking a step back, even if those air defense systems are doped with electronic countermeasures systems, it is absolutely impossible to launch electronic interference of this intensity from land. This completely violates the laws of physics.

Unless it's an electronic countermeasures fighter?

He searched his mind for the models of Japanese electronic warfare aircraft in his memory, trying to find a fighter aircraft that could produce this effect, but ultimately failed.

Those aircraft are either impossible to appear here, or they do not have the ability to approach one's own side in stealth.

So is it really like flying into a different dimension?

He was starting to get a little suspicious.

However, the next second this thought appeared in his mind, and the moment his eyes swept across the radar screen that had been disabled for a long time, he suddenly discovered to his surprise that the airborne radar had actually started working again.

And the sound of David chattering in the back seat on the radio came to his ears again.

"David! Communication restored!"

He subconsciously turned to look at David, but at this sudden glance, he suddenly discovered that an extremely unfamiliar plane appeared behind him.

Earthy yellow paint, canard shape, irregular-shaped pod hanging under the belly of the fuselage

"Shit! What kind of plane is this? J-20??"

David behind him also noticed the fighter plane following him. After being stunned for a second, he immediately shouted:

"Accelerate, accelerate! Release the interference bomb and get rid of him!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Robert suddenly started the afterburner. Then, the EA-18 began to roll at a very high speed, and the magnesium thermal bombs that interfered with the heat-seeking missiles continued to spray out from the tail of the aircraft, as if it were an ocean. The frightened squid spurted ink backwards.

However, the plane behind them didn't seem to have any intention of launching a direct attack on them. It just followed closely behind them, shaking its wings from time to time, as if trying to communicate with them.

Seeing this scene, David hesitated for a moment and said to Robert:

"Robert, I want to turn off the electronic jamming system, we need to get in touch with each other!"

After finishing speaking, he immediately cut off the jamming system without waiting for Robert's response, and the sound of a radio call immediately came to their ears.

"Please follow the guidance and land immediately, otherwise, I will shoot you down."

"Repeat, this is Srbija airspace, you have entered the air defense identification range, please follow the guidance and land immediately, otherwise, I will shoot you down."

"What shot down? Who are you? Where are you?"

David hesitated for a moment, turned on the radio communication, and responded in his most innocent tone.

"I am the Srbija Air Force. This is Srbija airspace. Please follow the guidance and land immediately!"

The other party's reply was simple and firm. The two people on EA-18 were silent for a moment. After Robert made a gesture, they made a tacit decision.

The reason for the failure of the previous electronic equipment was found, and the source was this strange aircraft equipped with a jamming pod.

What they fear most is that they cannot find the enemy, and now that the enemy has appeared, there is no reason for them to let others slaughter them.

The EA-18 accelerated suddenly, and all weapons system fuses were opened. Then, after flying a certain distance, Robert suddenly pulled up the control stick. After a beautiful pull, he successfully made way for the unknown and weird aircraft behind him. ahead.

The airborne fire control radar was activated, and a large number of heat decoys were also sprayed from the tail of the opponent's aircraft, but everything seemed to be a little too late.

When we were behind the EA-18 just now, this aircraft had an advantage, but now

Robert's finger has already been placed on the missile launch button. The AIM-9L air-to-air missile is about to move. The only reason that prevents him from pressing the launch button is that he has not yet seen the data link information of his two F-35s on the radar.

Where did they go?

Robert didn't have time to think about it, because the plane's radar monitoring system had already started warning frantically.

His fire control radar has not locked on the enemy aircraft ahead, but he has been locked on by the fire control radar in advance.

"Ruined."

He looked back desperately. Under the flying helmet, he couldn't see David's expression clearly, but he could clearly see the firelight flying from a very far distance behind him.

It was an air-to-air missile.

Robert pushed the throttle subconsciously, but how could the speed of the plane be compared with that of the missile?

In just two seconds, he felt the huge vibration caused by the explosion at the tail of the aircraft, and then he pulled the ejection lever without hesitation.

However, the wrong flight attitude caused him huge trouble. The hatch that was thrown away by the explosion lay across his ejection route, and he hit it without any suspense after David.

The violent impact nearly broke his cervical vertebrae, and the fear of death struck him. At the last second when his consciousness dissipated, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind:

Maybe I shouldn't have come on this mission.

When Robert woke up again, he found that he was already in a white room.

"Where is this?"

He struggled to get up, but was held down by David beside him.

".Stop moving, your neck is almost broken and you need to recover."

Seeing David's face, Robert felt slightly relieved. He gently twisted his neck, and then asked:

"Are we back already? Or"

David smiled bitterly, shook his head, and replied:

"No, we're under arrest. This is Belgrade."

September 10th is a special day.

On this day, the United States sent three fighter planes, including the EA-18 electronic countermeasures fighter, to invade Srbija's airspace in an attempt to complete a simulated strike mission. However, all three fighters lost contact after entering Srbija's airspace.

Then, the Truman aircraft carrier formation once again sent two F-35s and one F-22 to search for support, and lost contact again. Among them, only the F-22 successfully escaped with its high maneuverability and high stealth performance. After returning, it reported There is news that Srbija has electronic countermeasures fighters.

After receiving the news, Ugly Country finally recognized its opponent. They tried to threaten Srbija through B-2 bombers. However, the B-2 far away in Germany had just taken off and was photographed by a satellite. .

This photo was passed to the Truman formation 15 minutes after the B-2 took off. The latter was still in the process of climbing and was recalled urgently.

Belgrade Airport was very busy that day because they had just received some special guests.

A total of 4 F-35 fighter jets.

Their reasons for landing at Belgrade Military Airport were surprisingly consistent:

“We didn’t mean to intrude, we just”

"be lost."
