Chapter 145: Electronic Countermeasures

readx; In the border areas of Italy, Austria and Yugoslavia, because the state of military control between China and the United States is not complete, both sides have deployed troops into each other's areas, for example, the Chinese army is in the border area of Yugoslavia 592b and Italy, extending westward into Italian territory for tens of kilometers. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 And the U.S. military has also done similar things, for example, this Quechach is part of Austrian territory, but it is actually controlled by the U.S. military.

Since Quechach was deep into the hinterland of the Chinese coalition-controlled area, the US military also attached great importance to this, not only deploying an infantry battalion and a tank company in this small town, but also deploying the remaining two infantry battalions of the infantry regiment and a tank battalion in the rear.

In other words, the total number of troops directly and indirectly deployed by the US army for the small place of Kochakh is as high as one infantry regiment plus one tank battalion. This kind of force is very rare even in the very dense European region where the [***] teams are deployed.

Officially, because the U.S. military has deployed heavy troops in this area, the coalition forces have invested heavy troops in order to recapture Kchach, not only with the strength of a division of the Austrian Wehrmacht, but also a battle group from the third division of the Chinese Army into it, in order to take Akchach in the shortest possible time, without giving the Americans too much time to react, and to take Kchach before the United States reacts, creating a fait accompli.

As for worries such as undeclared war, in fact, China's top brass is not worried about this, military conflicts between China and the United States have been frequent since last year in the Pacific region, especially between aircraft clashes are very frequent, last year there were also cases of the two sides colliding with planes over the Philippines, and there are many conflicts of live ammunition firing, in the Pacific region the two navies have occurred more, especially in the waters near the Philippines, there have been many examples of warships of the two sides firing at each other, and in the European region, Clashes have also been frequent in recent months, and just a few days ago there was an incident in which fighter jets from both sides opened fire on each other, resulting in planes being shot down on both sides. However, after so many military conflicts occurred, although both sides would accuse each other and protest diplomatically, they did not cause further large-scale wars, whether it was Truman or Chen Jingyun, they maintained a quite tacit understanding, that is, military conflicts can be fought in small ways, and they can also test the strength of the other side, as for the outbreak of war because of some military conflicts, these two people did not have such ideas.

Today's battle between Quechakh is, to a certain extent, a large-scale military conflict between China and the United States, and is not a prelude to a full-scale war between the two countries, otherwise, the Chinese Army would not have sent only one battle group to attack one Quechakh, but the entire Ninth Army would have marched directly to Italy.

In fact, if a full-scale war really breaks out between the two countries, or if Chen Jingyun is really determined to fight a life-and-death battle with the Americans, then the so-called confrontation of conventional military forces is secondary, and Chen Jingyun will dispatch B19 strategic bombers and nuclear bombs at the first time, and drop nuclear bombs directly on New York.

It is precisely because of this that even though China has launched a large-scale offensive against Kochakh, the Americans do not consider this to be a sign of war between the two countries.

At this time, the headquarters of the 9th Division of the United States Army had received a report of a wired call from the 47th Regiment south of Quechach. As for radio communications, the Americans found that after the start of the battle, the radio communications they relied on so much in the past frequently failed, and they could not get effective and timely contact with the front-line troops, and the Americans were not stupid, naturally understood that it was the Chinese who interfered with their radio communications, but radio communications were not good, but the wired telephone communication between the troops was still smooth, and although China's electronic jamming equipment was not bad in this year, it could not interfere with the communication of people's limited telephones.

Electronic countermeasures, which is not a new term in World War II, the confrontation between the British and the Luftwaffe on the European battlefield is the frequent occurrence of electronic countermeasures, from the traditional radio code cracking, to the bombers when performing tasks to release chaff to interfere with the enemy's ground radar, and then to the use of radio equipment to directly interfere with the enemy's radio communications, and then to directly interfere with the enemy's wireless guided bombs, missiles, etc., electronic countermeasures have developed step by step, and in just a few years it has become a key project of new type and development in various countries.

One of the most obvious examples is that during the war, Britain had repeatedly interfered with the German army's high-frequency radio communication system, forcing the German army to develop and put into service a higher frequency radio communication system, and at the same time, the Allied Navy faced the threat of large-scale service of television radio guided bombs in China and Germany, and equipped a large number of warships with electronic jamming equipment, resulting in the early TV guided bombs in China and Germany because they were extremely easy to be jammed, and the Chinese Navy gave up the plan to serve the early television guidance. It was not until the problem of easy jamming was initially solved that the TV-guided bomb was put into large-scale service. In addition, China has made extensive use of jamming measures in response to China's repeated bombing operations against Germany and the Allied bombing operations against Germany, such as dropping chaff in the early stage, and even flying directly over the enemy's air to actively jam the enemy's radar and cover the safety of its own bomber group.

So don't look at it as only World War II, but in fact, many things in modern warfare started in World War II, and the war at the end of World War II already had the prototype of modern warfare, and jet aircraft, radar, missiles, electronic warfare, and tank shelling and armor-piercing shells have all appeared one after another.

Benefiting from the first-mover advantage of the domestic electronics industry, China has always occupied a lot of advantages in military electronics, China's three armed forces have always been the pride of the Chinese industry, not only long-range early warning radar, but also the accurate fire control radar used by the navy, and the radar equipped with the aircraft is also developing rapidly, such as the early large-scale use of various types of radar on various bombers, etc., the later radar technology development and progress, the size is reduced, and it can be loaded into the fighter jet. For example, the HZ-44 ranging radar series developed by Hanzhong Electronics Company specifically for miniaturized fighters has been widely equipped on many advanced jet aircraft such as F12 fighters, F11 fighters, and F13 fighter-bombers. At the same time, the HK-45 airborne fire control radar developed by Hanzhong Electronics Company specifically for night jet fighters has also been developed, and is currently preparing to be mounted on specially modified F12 fighters, and is scheduled to be finalized as F12F.

While China's various radars are developing surgingly, it is also paying more attention to electronic countermeasures, and among the three armed forces, the army attaches the most importance to it, and the reason is simple, that is, among the many strategic theories put forward by Lieutenant General Li Yuting of the army, the theory of electronic warfare is the key point of it, and in electronic warfare, radio jamming and anti-jamming are naturally the most important of them. However, although the theory of electronic warfare was put forward by the Army, it was the Air Force that actually implemented and invested heavily in its development, and the reason is simple, because the main body of electronic warfare is still the Air Force. As for the reason why the Army took the lead in proposing the concept of electronic warfare, the reason is very simple, because in the eyes of those army bigwigs, the Air Force is a subordinate branch of the Army, and as the main body of the Chinese forces, the Army has an unshirkable responsibility for guiding the development of the Air Force. Those bigwigs thought like this, and Li Yuting, who was trained by Shen Gang and Chen Yi, naturally regarded the Air Force and Navy as the younger brothers of the Army, so the Army took the lead in proposing the concept of electronic warfare.

In fact, China's army has never been a simple army, for example, under the current Chinese State Military Commission, there is a navy department and an air force department, but there is no army department. That is why the General Staff, the Armament Department, and the Logistics Department will be directly set up under the State Military Commission, and many departments of the Army are directly subordinate to the State Military Commission, such as the Weapons Director, the Tactical Director, the Artillery Director, and the Engineering Director, all of which are subordinate departments of the Army, which are directly under the State Military Commission, unlike the Army and the Navy, which are attached to their respective military departments.

As a result, the general staff under the State Military Commission is not only the army general staff, but also the joint staff of the navy, the army, and the air force, and the staff department not only has the chief of the army and the deputy chief of operations of the general staff, but also the deputy chief of staff from the navy and the deputy chief of staff from the air force, and the general staff is responsible for the strategic command of all military forces in the country, including the army, navy, and air force. This department is the actual operational command organ of the army, which is responsible for the actual command of the army units throughout the country in wartime, and the director of the joint operations department is the rank of lieutenant general, and is not under the leadership of the chief of staff, but is under the leadership of the deputy chief of operations of the general staff, and the deputy chief of operations of the general staff is a post with the rank of general, and is not responsible to the chief of the general staff, but directly to the State Military Commission. His status is equivalent to that of the head of the Naval Operations Department and the chief of the Air Force Staff, both with the rank of admiral.

The status of the army in the country is too special, so the real army bigwigs such as Shen Gang and Chen Yi have never thought that they are only in charge of the army, but that the army, navy and air force are in charge together.

One more chapter, it is estimated that it will be later!
