Chapter 1465: Chapter 574: Preemptive Strike (Modified Version)_2

Even if their attack fails this time, The United States of America can still shift the blame onto Japan. They might even scapegoat one or two Japanese, claiming that these Japanese harbor a grudge against Dream Island, and thus hijacked American fighter jets to launch an attack on Yan Fei, intending to stir up trouble between Dream Island and The United States of America, ensuring Japan benefits and clearing The United States of America of any involvement…

However, Yan Fei was not sure that the target of this squad of fighter jets was his “Dream One,” so he did not react immediately, opting instead to watch and wait. He even continued chatting with Lu Pingping without changing his expression, while the others in the airplane did not know that they might have already been targeted by US fighter jets.

Yan Fei often summoned drones for Yang Qi to study. Once Yang Qi learned that drones could automatically restore themselves, he even scraped off the stealth coating for research. After numerous analyses, Yang Qi had cracked the secrets of stealth aircraft on Earth and had specifically developed a super radar capable of tracking stealth fighter jets.

The US fighter jet squadron included two F-22 Stealth Fighters, which formed a separate flight team at a flight altitude of 20,000 meters, aiming to hide themselves before delivering a fatal strike. However, the latest satellite from Dream Island already had the capability to detect stealth targets, so even though the drone had not activated the Quantum Radar, Yan Fei still had continuous updates on the two F-22s’ flight status.

“Dream One” continued on its course for twenty minutes without altering its flight path. Likewise, the US fighter jet squadron did not change its course either, and was now less than 300 kilometers away from “Dream One” up ahead. At this point, Yan Fei was sure that the US fighter jet squadron was targeting him, but they had not yet entered the missile attack range. Once within range, the Americans would launch missiles at “Dream One.”

Lu Pingping was also on “Dream One,” and Yan Fei did not dare risk the Americans actually launching a missile attack. Before the Americans made their move, his Drone Avatar swiftly turned and flew towards the approaching US fighter jet squadron.

The Drone Avatar sped up to maximum velocity, and within just a few minutes, it closed in on the US fighter jet squadron. The squadron’s target was the “Dream One” ahead; they continuously monitored “Dream One’s” flight status using onboard radar. Yet, due to the Drone Avatar’s powerful stealth capability, none of the US fighter jet squadron noticed its rapid approach.

When the drone closed to within less than 50 kilometers of the squad, the hidden missile bay suddenly opened, launching 12 AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles in a blink. These Air-to-Air Missiles, like heavenly maidens scattering blossoms, were launched at high speed towards the US fighter jet squadron ahead.

The US fighter jet squadron had been maintaining a full radar scan, unable to detect the completely stealthed Drone Avatar, but they immediately spotted the incoming AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles. The sight of 12 suddenly appearing Air-to-Air Missiles shocked the American pilots, as they were reminded of the mysterious aircraft from Dream Island that brought devastating disasters to The United States, attacking in the same sudden manner, and most of the American Air Force’s lost jets were downed by that mysterious aircraft.

The US fighter jet squadron finally realized that their mission was doomed to fail because the mysterious aircraft from Dream Island was always there escorting Yan Fei’s special plane. Noticing their approach, the mysterious aircraft from Dream Island audaciously took the initiative and moved to shoot them down.

Before Yan Fei’s Dream Island rose to prominence, the military strength of The United States of America was unmatched, and no other country could counter the threat posed by the US forces. Even when they knew the Americans were gathering their army to attack, they would just wait passively, not daring to fire the first shot before the US forces had fully assembled, hoping against hope for a change in fortunes. With this significant advantage, The United States of America could amass a large force and crush its enemies with overwhelming power akin to the weight of Mount Tai descending upon them.

Originally, this squadron of American fighter jets also had this kind of inert thinking, that if their operation went undiscovered, they would indeed strike Yan Fei’s special plane “Dream One”. Once discovered by the Dream Island side, however, they would cease the attack and pretend as if nothing had happened and leave the area. Little did they know that Yan Fei has zero tolerance for threats; even if the opponent had not yet launched an attack, he would annihilate the threat in its infancy. He had not even contacted The United States military before he launched the most fierce preemptive strike against this fighter squadron.

When the pilots of the four F-15 fighters in the squadron found that each of their airplanes had been attacked by two AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles, they became somewhat panicked because they knew from the countless predecessors how powerful the mysterious fighter’s missiles of Dream Island were–no one had escaped such missile attacks. Therefore, they dared not linger and instead quickly fired two Air-to-Air Missiles at “Dream One” from a distance and accelerated to flee the scene.

The two F-22s had thought themselves as stealth fighters, believing they would not be struck by AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles. But their onboard radars quickly sounded the alarm, indicating they had been locked onto by the enemy’s missiles, facing attacks. Once radar locks onto stealth aircraft, their fate is no different from ordinary planes, so these two F-22s hurriedly turned around, not even firing their missiles before beginning to retreat.

The AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles launched by the Drone Avatar, guided by Quantum Radar, relentlessly pursued the American fighter squadron. No matter how the opponents dodged, released decoy flares, or conducted electromagnetic interference, they could not escape the pursuit of the AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles, with the intent to completely annihilate their opponents.

Being very far from “Dream One”, the missiles fired by the American fighter jets originally wouldn’t reach “Dream One”, but Yan Fei didn’t dare to be negligent. What if American missile technology had a breakthrough that could strike “Dream One” from here? To prevent “Dream One” and the people on it from being endangered, the drone still fired eight AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles at the incoming missiles, intending to use these modified armor-piercing rounds as intercepting missiles to shoot down all incoming missiles.

Under the lock of Quantum Radar, the eight AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles sped towards the incoming US Air-to-Air Missiles. In just a few flashes, the attacking Air-to-Air Missiles were all destroyed, exploding into eight huge fireballs in the sky, completely averting the potential crisis of an attack on “Dream One”.

In the distant airspace, twelve AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles launched by the drone had already caught up with the retreating American fighter squadron. Whether they were F-15 fighters or F-22 Stealth Fighters, they were unable to escape the pursuit of the AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles and were destroyed.

The Drone Quantum Radar’s guidance capability was formidable; only six AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles were used to destroy all the fighter jets in the American fighter squadron, while the other six reserved missiles, having lost their targets, self-destructed.

Consequently, a series of explosions occurred in the distant sky, where the American fighter jets were blown to pieces, with wreckage scattering everywhere. However, learning from their predecessors’ lessons, as soon as the American pilots realized they couldn’t escape the pursuit of the AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles, they activated their ejection seats, opting to parachute out and managed to escape with their lives…
