Vengeance (2014)
“On board the USS Apple, already on high alert, alarms sounded, people ran. Weapons’ turrets went from passive alert to active seeking. The first carrier jets, waiting on the runway, took off immediately and others lined up behind them.
The circling F-35 fighter jets went to afterburners, racing to the west to try to engage the Bzadian planes before they could get within striking distance of the ships.
The USS Apple’s, defensive systems went to work, throwing a curtain of chaff and countermeasur...es into the air, concealing the ship from radar or radio-guided missiles.
On the missile frigates and destroyers that provided an outer protective screen for the USS Apple, covers slid off missile silos and a porcupine forest of smoke trails sprouted.
It wasn’t enough. The Bzadians weren’t here to fight a pitched battle. The moment the USS Apple came within range, the Dragon fired its full complement of air-to-surface missiles. Then, as if a single craft, all six enemy jets wheeled around and headed for home.MoreLess
