In modern warfare, where missiles are the main means of attack, both offense and defense are measured in seconds. [No pop-up novel network]

The J15BA group first fired anti-ship missiles at a distance of about 240 km from the South Korean fleet, followed by the high-flying 8J15BA at a distance of about 120 km from the South Korean fleet, and the low-flying 28J15BA at a distance of about 130 km from the South Korean fleet.

Because the radar of South Korean warships has a maximum detection range of only 60 kilometers for sea-skimming anti-ship missiles, the C2 anti-ship missile with a speed of Mach 607 will enter the "field of view" of the South Korean fleet about after firing. The J15BA group launched anti-radiation missiles about 3 minutes later than the anti-ship missiles, and it only took 6 kilometers for an anti-radiation missile with a speed of Mach 58 to fly 120 kilometers. From this, it can be calculated that if the South Korean warship does not evade, the anti-radiation missile hits the target only about 7 seconds earlier than the anti-ship missile.

Of course, this is the result of theoretical calculations.

The maximum range of the C607 is close to 500 kilometers, and when attacking targets, it can fly according to the route set by the pilot. In order to achieve the maximum effect of the attack, attacking the enemy fleet simultaneously from all directions, often does not fly along the shortest course. Yue Tongsheng and other pilots chose a "roundabout route" for the missile, and one C607 launched by 36 fighters would simultaneously attack the South Korean fleet from three directions, south, south, and west, so the flight time of the C607 missile was close to 6 minutes.

It is also said that before the arrival of anti-ship missiles, the South Korean fleet had about 90 hours of "anti-radiation operations".

Very hurtful, very fatal for 90 seconds.

This interval between attacks was the "best opportunity" summed up by more than 100 pilots of the 1st Company, the 3rd Group, the carrier-based aviation unit of the 1st Company, the Navy, the Navy, the Republic of China, through dozens of arduous training and drills over a period of several years. The main purpose of increasing the interval between attacks is not to give the enemy more time to organize defenses, but to avoid "fratricidal" "fratricidal" anti-radiation missiles and anti-ship missiles.

Although the pilot set the working frequency for the seeker of the anti-radiation missile before the launch, in some special cases, such as after the target suddenly turned off the radar, the anti-radiation missile was not able to find the target according to the "memory", and the seeker still did not have a target after working in an active mode, and the seeker will automatically look for the target with electromagnetic radiation within the attack range in the working mode of full-band passive search, and take the initiative to attack. If, at this time, an anti-ship missile equipped with an active radar seeker enters the range of an anti-ship missile, the anti-radiation missile will attack the anti-ship missile!

It's complicated and incredible.

Actually, it's pretty much the same. The probability of an anti-radiation missile actively attacking an anti-ship missile will not exceed 1 in 10,000. But who can guarantee that this will not happen in real combat? In a drill in 2024. 1 LT22 anti-radiation missile after losing its target for attack. Hit 1 unmanned ground target aircraft equipped with radio remote control equipment.

Interval 90. Just let all the anti-radiation missiles "finish" the attack.

Regardless of whether the target is hit or not. Because the anti-radiation missile has a limited time to stay in the air. So the threat will be lost in 90.

Even if you get a valuable 90. The South Korean fleet is still helpless.

Air defense operations are not anti-ship operations. Missiles cannot be fired in advance. And it's not just about launching missiles.

Before firing an anti-aircraft missile. Battleships must use radar-based search and detection equipment to search for and track incoming targets. Measure the distance, altitude, speed, heading and other data of the target. And then you can shoot missiles. This was followed by radar to guide the missile to the target. Guided missiles hit targets. The duration of the entire process varies from a few seconds to tens of seconds. During this period, the ground radar on the battleship must be turned on and worked.

Turn off the radar and sit back!

If you don't turn off the radar, you will be blinded by anti-radiation missiles.

Immediately after the current J15BA fighters, the South Korean fleet entered an air defense combat state. Before the first missile broke through the roof of the vertical launch system, the J15BA group quickly turned and left the missile's attack range. Without waiting for the commander of the South Korean fleet to relieve, the radar detected dozens of "small targets." Not sea-skimming anti-ship missiles, but ground-to-ground missiles flying at altitudes of thousands of kilometers.

Anti-radiation missiles!

The commander of the South Korean fleet made a very accurate judgment, but at the same time made a very stupid decision.

9 destroyers with regional air defense did not turn off the radar, but fired anti-aircraft missiles at the fastest speed, intercepting incoming anti-radiation missiles!

The interception rate of anti-radiation missiles by anti-aircraft missiles will not exceed one tenth!

Unlike anti-aircraft missiles of the beginning of the 211th century, in the form of "standard" mod |||The fifth-generation shipborne regional anti-aircraft missile represented by the model is the first to use a "kinetic warhead" to destroy targets by direct impact. By the time of the sixth-generation shipborne regional air defense missile, represented by the "Haichangmao" anti-aircraft missile successfully developed by the United States in 20211 and the HHOO2 regional anti-missile anti-aircraft missile successfully developed by the Republic in 2022, the "kinetic warhead" has become a standard equipment. The South Korean Navy keeps up with the world trend, and the 3 types of destroyers are equipped with either the "standard" mod |||or the sixth-generation regional air defense missile jointly developed by Europe

In order for the "kinetic warhead" to be effective, it must first hit the target.

It is not difficult to hit a heavy anti-ship missile with a body length of several meters and a mass of more than 1 kilogram, but it is very difficult to hit an anti-radiation missile with a body length of no more than 3 meters and a mass of more than 1C0 kilograms.

Not to mention hitting, it is very difficult to detect and track anti-radiation missiles with a speed of more than Mach 6.

Despite the desperate and reckless reflex anti-aircraft missiles of the 9 destroyers, the fire control radars on the battleships illuminated the incoming targets with maximum power, and the anti-aircraft missiles intercepted them in the most accurate way, the results were still very bad.

Crucially, 9 destroyers shot down less than 240 anti-radiation missiles with 30 anti-aircraft missiles.

The distance was shortened to less than 1,000 meters, and the passive radar seeker of the anti-radiation missile intercepted the electromagnetic waves radiated by the radar of the South Korean warship and entered the stage of self-guided attack. In accordance with the attack instructions set by the pilots in advance, a number of anti-radiation missiles were aimed at the nine destroyers in the fleet in turn, and did not "provoke" the frigates that did not have regional air defense capabilities.

Like all air defense destroyers, the destroyers of the South Korean Navy are not equipped with medium- and short-range anti-aircraft missiles.

In the face of murderous anti-radiation missiles, 9 South Korean destroyers continued to fire area anti-aircraft missiles.

By this time, the fate of 9 destroyers was already irrevocable.

Even if the interception efficiency is increased several times, as long as it is hit by 1 anti-radiation missile, the destroyer will lose its air defense combat capability and will not be able to fight the approaching anti-ship missile.

The results were far from ideal.

Less than 20, 3 destroyers of the "Yi Sunsin" class were hit by 3 anti-radiation missiles each, and another 6 destroyers were also hit by 2 anti-radiation missiles.

In addition to the "isolated" frigates, the South Korean fleet turned blind.

The smoke from the explosion of the anti-radiation missile hitting the battleship's superstructure has not yet dissipated, and 44 heavy anti-ship missiles fired from the ground by the J15BA aircraft group approached the South Korean fleet from three directions.

The alert radar on the frigate showed anti-ship missiles flying over the sea, and it was only a flash.

The frigate did its best, firing anti-aircraft missiles at a rate of 1 per second. The Busan-class frigate has only 2 fire control channels and needs to continuously illuminate the target, so it can only intercept 2 air targets at the same time.

At this time, what really plays a role is to equip the terminal interception system of optoelectronic detection and tracking equipment.

13 warships, each warship is equipped with 2 terminal interception systems, each set of terminal interception systems can intercept up to 3 air targets in 1 "round", and the interception success rate will not exceed 80%.

That is, the South Korean fleet intercepts up to 62 anti-ship missiles, and then it will be "drowned" by another 82 anti-ship missiles.

The reality is certainly not so ideal, and it is a miracle that the South Korean fleet can intercept a missile with a terminal interception system.

The C607 adopts the "missile body separation" technology, which automatically separates the projectile body from the warhead before entering the strike range of the warship's terminal interception system, and the warhead completes the attack under the motive push and control of the small rocket. After the projectile body is separated from the warhead, not only is it more difficult for the warhead to be intercepted, but the projectile body can also act as a decoy, weakening the combat efficiency of the interception system.

Even if only 82 missiles succeed in penetrating the defense, on average, one South Korean warship will have to suffer at least six missiles.

C607 is a "standard" heavy anti-ship missile, its semi-armor-piercing warhead weighs kilograms, a charge of 11C kilograms, 1 C607 can paralyze 10,000-ton warship, 2 to 3 can sink 10,000-ton warship, even if it is a supercarrier of the US Navy, it can withstand a maximum of 6 C607 strikes. What's more terrifying is that C607 is a "smart missile", before attacking the target, the missile ground fire control system can automatically adjust the route, depress the route at the moment of hitting the target, attack the target ground waterline, or according to the pilot's preset instructions, attack the target ground, so that the missile wields the maximum power, destroys or paralyzes the target to the greatest extent.

In the face of the surging "rain of bullets", the only choice for the South Korean army was to abandon the ship and escape.

For the South Korean troops in the fleet, there is not even much chance of abandoning the ship and escaping!

From the moment the missile appeared on the frigate to the time the missile hit the first target, the destroyer "Yi Sunsin", there was less than 1 minute left for the ROK army to escape!

For the South Korean troops inside the battleship, 1 minute is not even enough to take out the life jacket!

As a result, it is conceivable that the nine destroyers that have run out of anti-aircraft missiles can only "stand by and die," and the frigates, which have only a little defensive capability, "disarm and surrender" after desperate resistance.

When the last C607 hit the sinking "Park Won-il", a large unmanned reconnaissance aircraft came over the battlefield.

After the relay of military communications satellites, the sparkling sea under the morning light, the sinking ROK warship, the huge whirlpool left by the sunken warship on the sea surface, and the fragments of the ROK army and warship floating on the sea surface were displayed in front of the commander of the aircraft carrier battle group of the Republic Navy, and also appeared on the big screen of the tactical command center of the General Staff.

The attack was a complete success, as everyone expected!
