Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Canada's Yukon Territory is close to the U.S. state of Alaska. After the war broke out, almost all of Canada's territory was opened to the United States. It has now become an important weapons testing site for the U.S. military.  Facing China's endless supply of advanced weapons, and even some super weapons with obvious advantages, the US military has suffered a lot and has always been suppressed at a disadvantage.  In order to change this dilemma, the U.S. Congress and the White House have almost authorized and allocated funds to invest in all weapons that seem feasible, can shorten the gap with China's super weapons, and even give the U.S. military an advantage on the battlefield.

    As a national treasure-level scientific research expert who has developed a series of high-end weapons such as the H-l Predator, Gregory Kirk has received a lot of investment in this wave, which has led to the rapid development of many projects he led.  , and a number of weapons with practical value and potential have emerged.

    In the Yukon Territory, the U.S. BARpA (U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) and senior officials of the Department of Defense are jointly witnessing the highlight of the "New Mystery Palace" - "Wave Rider".  In another dimension, the Waverider 6IA aircraft was jointly developed by Boeing and Pratt & Whitney. When you see the sequence of  New technologies, thus laying the foundation for the realization of the US military's rapid global strike plan.

    In this plane, Kirk took a new approach and developed a new scram engine that was different from Boeing and Pratt & Whitney, and improved the thermal efficiency of this engine, greatly increasing the range and speed of the Wave Rider.

    "Mr. Secretary, allow me to introduce to you the latest killer weapon of the United States, the Waverider. This weapon is a hypersonic strike weapon and has been put into practical use from the technical verification stage. The Waverider you see now has  It is a missile equipped with a conventional warhead. It flies at high altitudes and uses unique wave-riding technology. There is no pressure communication between the upper and lower surfaces, and the pressure difference resistance on the upper surface is small, allowing it to fly at an amazing speed.  Mach 7 or above, basically, the Wave Rider can reach any corner of the world within an hour, and it can carry a 160,000-ton nuclear warhead. In addition, its flight trajectory is very complex and its speed is too fast, making it difficult for the enemy to defeat it.  Interception," a BARpAR scooper excitedly introduced to Defense Secretary Rumsfeld.

    For this weapons test, Rumsfeld personally came to Yukon, Canada, to observe the use of this weapon, because the United States now needs a weapon that can suppress the situation. Although the US military has a nuclear arsenal of tens of thousands of nuclear warheads  , but as soon as we start throwing nuclear bombs at each other, it will already be a broken situation.  In comparison, China has Century bombers and vacuum implosion bombs, which can play a decisive role on the battlefield. Even out of fear that China will use Century bombers to bomb the United States, George W. Bush's office is now in the White House.  In the underground reinforced command post, it is difficult for the US military to detect the Century bomber. Once it is seen, it is too late.

    "The Waverider can not only be used as a strategic weapon, but also a very excellent tactical weapon. We have modified its core technology, the scram engine, which has enabled us to obtain ranges of 106 kilometers, 36 kilometers and 66 kilometers respectively.  Multiple models of Waveriders. Imagine that even if we do not deploy a large number of fighter jets at overseas bases and do not have an aircraft carrier battle group outside a hot theater, we have a few Waveriders and can hit them in just a few dozen minutes.  The power of the Wave Rider is enough to destroy the enemy's important targets in the theater, whether it is the Chinese naval base, the Chinese arms warehouse known by intelligence, or even the armored cluster of China's large-scale mechanized troops.  , we have taken the initiative on the battlefield. Even if China has a numerical advantage in the region, it is difficult to avoid our destruction from thousands of miles away." The BARpAR staff continued to narrate with interest, but the members from the Mystic Palace in Alaska.  Everyone is very calm and calm, as if this great weapon was not developed by them.

    Rumsfeld smiled and clapped his hands and said: "It sounds like a very powerful thing. Come on, let this beast out and let us all experience its terror. I hope it can become a dragon-slaying weapon for us to defeat China."

    In the expectation of these people, a heavy-duty truck produced by General Motors erected the launcher. Originally, the US military planned to launch the Waverider in the launch silo like a batch of ballistic missiles such as the Peacekeeper and Minuteman, but it came from the former  Kirk of the Soviet Union thought this was a stupid approach and insisted on using road-mobile launch vehicles, so general-purpose heavy-duty trucks became part of the weapon system.

    In fact, the Wave Rider can also be launched from an air platform like the B6. When launched from a land-based platform, a propeller is actually added. After the rocket engine sends it into high altitude, the real Wave Rider's scram engine will start.  Then conduct its own hypersonic flight.

    Rumsfeld also personally pressed the launch button remotely. Of course, the preparation work was completed by professionals. The Waverider missile came out in response and rushed directly into the sky at high latitudes.  After entering the set altitude, the final stage rocket separates and the wave rider heads towards??Set up from a target on the island of Newfoundland on the east coast of Canada. Since the distance is more than 3,000 kilometers, the wave rider only needs more than 20 minutes to hit the target.

    There was a screen in front of Rumsfeld and others, which was a real-time picture of the Newfoundland shooting range. After waiting for a period of time, a bright light flashed, followed by a huge mushroom cloud rising from the shooting range.  This time the experiment was quite successful, the error did not exceed ten meters, which shows that the accuracy of the wave rider is very powerful, and the power of the new super explosive also from the Mystic Palace in Alaska is also refreshing. An official from the Pentagon even pulled the BARpA  The staff asked: "Are you sure you don't have a warhead for using atomic bombs?"

    "It's really a great weapon," Rumsfeld exclaimed, but he was also worried. Obviously the Waverider can attack the Chinese army very well, but if the Chinese react wrongly and use nuclear weapons  If you fight back, the intensity of the entire war will immediately change.

    Even so, after understanding the powerful side of the Waverider, Bush still ignored the immaturity of the Waverider and purchased this missile on a large scale, especially in places like India and South Africa, where it is difficult for the US military to find cheap prices.  Yes, the investment cost of aircraft carrier battle groups is too high, and waveriders are obviously more suitable.
