“”It’s like a sci-fi movie!”

Captain Liu Hong said, looking at the blue electric light emitted by the electromagnetic railgun.

But before he finished speaking, another blue halo gathered at the muzzle.

Another shell was fired!

“”What a fast firing rate!”

Deputy Commander Wei said in surprise.

In addition to parameters such as range and power, firing rate is also a very important indicator for measuring naval guns.

Because this is related to the firepower value of a naval gun.

However, the firing rate of naval guns is limited by the effects of the shell hoisting mechanism, loading mechanism, pitch rotation, etc. Generally, the larger the caliber of the shells, the slower the firing rate.

For example, the naval gun of the Zumwalt destroyer of the United States has a range of 185 kilometers. Because its caliber reaches 155 mm, its firing rate is only 10-12 rounds.

However, the electromagnetic railgun of the 1601 Coast Guard Ship has a caliber of 300 mm, but it can fire one round every two seconds!

Next, with the huge sonic booms that continued to whistle in the air, the shells of the electromagnetic railgun were ejected one after another!

After a full minute, the air gradually became quiet.

“A firing rate of ten rounds per minute!”

“The fierceness of this firepower is comparable to that of a long-range artillery battalion, not to mention a heavy artillery battalion!”

Captain Liu Hong said in shock.

Since the caliber of the electromagnetic railgun shells is almost the same as that of rockets, its firepower is naturally comparable to that of long-range artillery!

The Longguo Long-range Artillery Battalion pays attention to the use of large-caliber rockets to crush and crush, forming an overwhelming rain of steel and a carpet bombing of mountains and seas!

A salvo from a long-range artillery battalion can cover nearly 100 square kilometers with firepower. It is larger than the area of a county town.

But now, after being equipped with electromagnetic railguns, the firepower of a coast guard ship can do this!

“Now it all depends on the strike accuracy of the electromagnetic railgun!”

Staff Officer Cheng clenched his fists and said nervously.

The range, rate of fire, strike speed and fierce firepower of the electromagnetic railgun are far beyond expectations.

Now the only thing to be verified is the strike accuracy.

If the strike accuracy of the electromagnetic railgun is also qualified, then Longguo will definitely have another killer weapon!

So at this moment, due to the huge expectations, Staff Officer Cheng is very nervous!

He really hopes and expects the success of the live-fire test of the electromagnetic railgun!

“five minutes!”

“With the electromagnetic railgun’s strike speed of 17 to 18 Mach, it can hit a target 1,500 kilometers away in about five minutes!”

Qin Chuan said.

Affected by the tense atmosphere in the command room, his heartbeat also began to speed up.

…………

At the same time, more than 1,500 kilometers away from the Coast Guard Ship 1601, the observation ship was watching and recording all the movements of the target reef from afar.

“According to the reply message, the target has been launched and will arrive in our area in about five minutes.”

“Check all monitoring equipment again!”

“Make sure all equipment works properly!”

The captain gave the order on the observation ship.

In his eyes, a target launched from more than 1,500 kilometers away can hit the target reef in about five minutes. It is definitely a hypersonic weapon!

Weapons like this are worth tens of millions and are extremely precious. Every test is a huge expense and an opportunity to cherish!

Therefore, their observations and recorded data must not be wrong!

If there is an error due to equipment problems or the data is not monitored, wasting precious hypersonic weapon testing opportunities, he can never bear this responsibility!

“”Captain, all equipment is in good condition!”

The adjutant reported after checking everything.

The captain of the observation ship breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that there was no problem again.

Then, he focused all his attention on the fire control strike countdown transmitted from the coast guard ship.

“The time is almost up!”

“ten!”

“Nine!”

The captain of the observation ship’s heart tightened, and he looked up at the sky. A ray of light suddenly appeared!

He quickly held his breath and continued to stare at the screen.

“……”

“three!”

“two!”

“One!”

When the countdown ended and time froze at the last second, he finally heard the belated sonic boom!

But at this moment, in the distance, a huge flame had risen from the target reef!

At the same time, a huge shock wave exploded on the sea level.

In addition to the unclear mist rising from the target reef because it was at the center of the explosion, even on the observation ship, one could feel a shock wave whistling past!

“Hypersonic weapons are hypersonic weapons. Not to mention their explosive power, the kinetic impact of Mach 17 alone is likely to make a big hole in the target reef!”

Looking at the explosion cloud rising in the distance, the captain of the observation ship said with emotion.

However, just as he was about to check the data recorded by the equipment on the observation ship, a huge explosion sounded again.

He hurriedly looked into the distance, but saw an extremely shocking scene.

In the distant sky, dazzling rays of light fell from the sky, just like a meteor shower during the day.

And accompanied by it, there are whistling sonic booms and explosions one after another!

On the sea surface in the distance, because of the continuous explosions, the water mist has risen and connected with the clouds.

It is even spreading!

Even the observation ship is being impacted by the continuous impact waves and the waves caused by the explosion!

“OMG!”

“How many hypersonic weapons are being fired in salvo?”

“But life is over!”

The captain of the observation ship was extremely shocked!

He has been engaged in missile guided weapons monitoring for so many years, but he has never seen so many hypersonic weapons firing at the same time!

This scene was deeply imprinted in his mind!

It was not until a few minutes later that it was confirmed that there was no shock wave and the water mist had dissipated a part that the observation ship took off the drone to observe the accuracy of the hit and the degree of damage.

However, when the drone arrived above the target reef, the captain of the observation ship was dumbfounded when he saw the real-time transmission of the picture.

Because in the picture, there was no target reef!

The part of the target reef that was obviously exposed above the sea level was actually blown up in this salvo!

“Observation ship, report observation data!”

“Did you hit the target reef accurately?”

At this time, the slightly hurried voice of Deputy Commander Wei came from the communication equipment.

“Report to the commander, not only were all hits accurate!”

“Moreover… our target reefs were directly blown up!”

The captain of the observation ship said truthfully while watching the images sent back by the drone!
