Tokyo Detective

Chapter 375 The warship sinks into the sea, the last rays of the setting sun.

In the open space of Nitsky Island, a dark green truck equipped with a missile launch system slowly drove out of an abandoned warehouse.

The launch tube on the back of the truck was 15 meters long, and the missile inside was 11 meters long and 1 meter wide.

This is the prototype of the hypersonic missile (single-launcher) Dark Eagle, one of the finished products of the America hypersonic missile project. It officially entered service in 23 and will be officially deployed to the America Army at the end of this year.

Naoki Hanyu and his clone were adjusting the launch system data in the vehicle, using Starlink images and the Naoki radar to locate DD89 and ensure a successful hit.

This is the first time I've used this thing; I'm a complete novice.

The clone asked curiously.

"Does the main body really intend to use this ultimate weapon?"

"There's no time to waste. We can't escape if we don't take down DDG89."

"Oh."

The vehicle frame quickly and slowly raised the launcher, having already identified and aimed at the target.

"emission."

In an instant, a scorching wave of air erupted from the launch tube, followed by a hypersonic missile rapidly accelerating at a speed of 30 meters per second, 100 meters per second, 500 meters per second, 1.5 kilometers per second, and 2 kilometers per second.

The tail flame was as dazzling as a small sun.

This scene was not only seen by Naoki Hanyu and his clones, but also by the Pentagon, which was observing with Starlink images, which alarmed the communications officer, who hurriedly notified DD89.

Mike felt the vehicle looked familiar, so he gestured to zoom in on the satellite image until a striking letter on the launch tube came into view.

"Dark Eagle? Impossible."

"Dark Hawk?"

The Pentagon's top brass were stunned; no wonder it looked so familiar.

How did Dark Eagle hypersonic missiles end up on the island? You know, only a few important military bases have these.

The deputy minister speculated.

"Could this be fake?"

"Regardless of whether it's fake or not, immediately notify DD-89 to intercept and evade."

"Yes."

A tense atmosphere filled the command room. If this thing really was the Dark Eagle, then the nature of this matter would be extremely serious.

Mike turned and looked around at his subordinates and colleagues. There was a high-ranking traitor in the American military, hiding a mysterious force that even he hadn't noticed, and these people might be in this room.

This is absolutely unbelievable and utterly inconceivable.

If this force were to erupt at some point, it could even overthrow the country.

At that moment, Secretary of Defense Mike broke out in a cold sweat. He was even grateful to the Morgans Group, wondering what he had done that had caused such a public outcry and forced that force to surface.

Yes, he should be glad that unless he resigns immediately, he cannot ignore the other party's existence.
.
On the other side, Naoki Hanyu's clone, accompanied by Fatima, watched the hypersonic missile disappear from sight, and the clone patted the girl's head.

"ended."

Wasn't it over a long time ago?
The girl was puzzled when she was forced to wear a hat and mask, but she did as the 40-year-old "big brother" told her to.

This is a measure to prevent girls from being photographed by satellite.

The hypersonic missile flew past the location of the "Naoki" and entered the enemy's radar, just as the Pentagon notified DDG-89.

Captain Leon of DDG-89 was dumbfounded. What was that? A hypersonic missile, and it was very likely one of their own Shadows.

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

Just then, the radar operator shouted.

"Captain, a high-speed object has been detected approaching us. It is traveling at Mach 8 (9800.64 km/h) at a distance of 230 kilometers and is expected to arrive in 80 seconds. It is a hypersonic missile."

Leon shouted nervously.

"The weapons department is preparing to intercept; we absolutely cannot allow the missile to land."

Leon said that's true, but the ship's anti-aircraft missiles are SM-6 (Standard Missile-6), with a maximum speed of Mach 3.5 and a typical speed of only around Mach 3.

At such a speed, the success rate of intercepting a hypersonic missile traveling at Mach 8 is less than 20%, to be precise, 18%. They don't have many chances to try.

"Damn it, why isn't my ship equipped with SM-6 Block IB missiles?"

The SM-6 Block IB, with a top speed of Mach 6, is a hypersonic air defense missile specifically designed by America to intercept hypersonic missiles. It is an upgraded version of the SM-6 and began slow mass production two years ago.

Obviously, such a powerful weapon would not be assigned to a destroyer that is merely loitering off the west coast of America.

The entry threshold for hypersonic missiles is Mach 5, the upgraded version is Mach 10, and the experimental version is Mach 20.

不管莱昂怎样想，DDG89第一波拦截导弹已经发射，4枚SM-6导弹已经升空进行拦截。4枚一起发射拦截的成功率是百分之40。

This is the last remaining stock; don't forget there are still two anti-ship missiles to intercept.

And so Leon waited in agonizing anticipation for the result.

"All four missiles missed their target, and the attack is expected in 37 seconds."

Leon now has only two options: either try to intercept the last two SM-6 missiles and then use other means to intercept the other two anti-ship missiles, or take a hit from a hypersonic missile and intercept the other two.

The first success rate was only one in eight, but it could save the warship.

When a hypersonic missile performs an "S" maneuver in the terminal phase, the second wave of interceptor missiles needs to withstand a 12G overload to correct its trajectory, which exceeds the 9G limit of the SM-6.

The second method could result in being sunk by a single missile, since hypersonic missiles are over 10 meters long and have two to three times the explosive charge of ordinary missiles.

"I'll give it my all!" Leon shouted, already having the answer.

"Initiate a second wave of interception, and quickly complete target reacquisition and missile launch."

"Yes."

With 20 seconds left before the hypersonic missile could hit, a second wave of interceptors was launched. However, the DDG-89 crew was pessimistic this time, as the success rate was simply too low.

"We must stop them, we must stop them."

"Come on, come on, we can do it!"

Despite their self-encouragement, the radar operators gave a despairing answer.

"Report: Second wave of interception failed."

At that moment, Leon's face turned deathly pale; he knew he was finished.

However, as the captain of a ship, he had to maintain his dignity, so he spoke earnestly to his subordinates.

"Everyone, it is an honor to work with you."

"."

The next second, a violent explosion struck the ship's hull with the power of 1.2 tons of TNT, and also produced a 3000°C plasma sheath, turning the ship's hull within a 200-meter radius into a continuous burning zone.

The 155-meter-long hull was blown in two, and the rest of the ship was also in a terrible state. Nearly 300 sailors, most of whom died.

But that wasn't the end of it. Two anti-ship missiles followed, which blew the ship into the sea, leaving only a few burned crew members on the surface.

At this moment, the Pentagon in America fell silent. Their destroyer had been sunk on their own turf, and nearly 300 naval personnel had been wiped out—what a terrible price to pay.

Mike glared angrily at his colleagues with bloodshot eyes, scaring the others into not daring to meet his gaze.

No matter who you are, you will have to pay the price for today's tragedy.

"Immediately arrange for people to rescue the Navy personnel who fell into the water, and also have the Hawaii base launch missiles."

The deputy minister quickly intervened.

"Minister, Nitsky Island is 2300 kilometers away from Hawaii, and the Hawaii base is not equipped with missiles that can reach 2000 kilometers away."

"."

"Go arrange for the follow-up pursuit."

"Yes."

Now that the destroyer has been sunk, the focus should be on minimizing the impact of the incident and making that despicable destroyer pay the price.

On the other side, Naoki Hanyu learned through a system notification that his hypersonic attack had worked.

[Ding! The Destroyer has committed intentional murder, accumulating 8-star evil.]

The second 8-star Sin is pretty good.

The second system notification surprised him.

[Ding! The destroyer America DDG-89 has been sunk, achieving the top title: Sea Overlord]

[A new hegemon has risen in the Eastern continent. As the sun sets, congratulations, host, for defeating the main warship of the second major maritime power after the British Empire. The hegemon, already showing signs of fatigue, is now being presented with the prologue to its final act.]

[Sea Overlord (Top Tier): Reduces the Spirit cost of summoning a clone by half, increases the performance of ships piloted by you or your clone by 20%, and increases weapon speed and power by 10%.]

Naoki Hanyu was a little confused. He rubbed his eyes and realized he hadn't misread it—it was a nuclear submarine.

"System, what are you trying to do? Are you giving this to us in preparation for World War III?"

Although it is not a ballistic missile submarine and does not carry Trident missiles with nuclear warheads, this thing has 50 Tomahawk missiles and one hypersonic missile.

He just used up his only hypersonic missile, and now they're giving him another one. This system is really user-friendly.

The firepower of a nuclear submarine is enough to destroy a city of 300,000 people. This thing is a real weapon of mass destruction, not to mention that it is a nuclear submarine and uses nuclear energy. If it explodes, an area of ​​20 square kilometers will be rendered useless. If it were placed in Tokyo, it could blow up most of Tokyo.

"Will they just give us nuclear weapons in the future?"

Naoki Hanyu shuddered at the thought. He couldn't imagine what his mindset would be like if he held such a deadly weapon. With the weapon in hand, the urge to kill would arise.

"I can't imagine it, I can't imagine it, I'd better slip away."
