Chapter 970 `Eagle`Falling
The sad radar alarm kept ringing, but the almost tingling of the eardrums was the sound from hell, following behind the plane like a life-threatening charm.
When the Somali Strategic Air Force implemented air siege tactics to include the whole battlefield in the encirclement of the squadron, a feast of hunting has begun. But to everyone's surprise, at the critical moment, the sound of sirens scared these elite Somali pilots into a cold sweat.
White slender missiles broke out of the calm sea. The sky's satellites and early warning aircraft immediately took over the missile's flight guidance, and corrected the missile's flight to the target through customary surname and GPS precision guidance. Unlike the AIM-120 advanced medium-range air-to-air missile, AIM-120 is the latest The model adds a GPS correction guidance system at the end, while the submarine-to-air missile launched from the submarine submarine uses idiomatic and GPS composite guidance in the middle, while at the end, the missile still turns on the active radar and automatically searches for the attack target.
Of course, during this attack, the early warning aircraft in the sky and the satellites in space provide effective support for the missile launch and hit the target.
A new type of Patriot missile broke into the air and quickly locked a Condor fighter that was chasing American fighters.
After discovering the locked and incoming missile, the 'Eagle' fighter immediately gave up the target, and then chose the same reaction action as before, using the instantaneous acceleration of the aircraft to raise the fighter to a missile's unswerable speed to get rid of the missile tracking.
Then when the 'Sing Eagle' fighter turned left with a small diameter and accelerated to another direction at a 45-degree acceleration, the incoming missile that had been paying attention to was also tracked.
Ordinary fighters can withstand an overload of up to 10G, which is already amazing, while the 'Eagle' fighter can withstand a 15-G mobile overload because of the pilot's physiological limit is higher. But in the face of the overload of 40 or 50 G of missiles, it is not enough to see at all.
The maneuver cannot be got rid of, and the fighter speed has been increased to Mach 4. This missile with average speed is already difficult to hit, especially surface-to-air missiles, because it requires a larger attack drop than air-to-air missiles, and sometimes the speed is not high.
5 Mach... The pilot's face changed, and the missiles behind him were still accelerating to chase, even much faster than the fighters. In just a dozen seconds, the distance between the two sides was reduced by half. If the fighters still maintained this speed, they would be chased by the missiles in 5-8 seconds at most.
When the plane reached Mach 6, the pilot found that the missile was still behind and almost bit the tail of the plane. At this time, the missile speed shown on the radar was Mach 7.1.
At present, the test speed of the Condor fighter is less than Mach 7, and this number has made the vast majority of missiles in the world out of reach. This is also a very key factor in the frequent acquisition of absolute advantages in air combat. The incoming missile this time is already faster than the aircraft. This has been out of the pilot's understanding.
A yellow indicator light on the cockpit instrument table has been flashing brighter and brighter. In addition to the increasingly urgent radar alarm, another drip alarm system has also begun to work. This is a missile alert detected by the laser anti-missile system on the fighter that poses a serious threat to the aircraft.
A slightly unrecoiled yellow laser flashed away. After the rear chased into the distance of 500 meters, the anti-missile system's automatic counterattack, the laser anti-missile system on the fighter finally launched a laser that accurately hit the rear Patriot missile.
But how strong is the customary kinetic energy of an object moving at Mach 7 speed? The battle unit was detonated by a laser hit, but the fragments of the missile were still splashing forward at the speed of Mach. Several high-speed flying shrapnel actually completed the task that the missile should perform at night, accurately hitting an engine at the rear of the fighter, causing the engine to fail.
The pilot adjusted the deflection of the fighter's vertical tail rudder to the left to offset the engine's yap torque of the aircraft in accordance with the handling of an engine failure in the flight manual, while briefly notifying the situation he encountered to other pilots in wireless communication.
An engine was lost. Although the plane would not crash, it was impossible to continue the mission and had to return to the base. The design of the two-engine fighter considers the situation that one engine stops working, while in Israel, some pilots even deliberately shut down one engine and fly with a single-engine. During the Vietnam War, in order to solve the black smoke of F-4 fighters, American pilots also deliberately turned off an engine and flew with an engine.
The "Beast Trap" plan carefully formulated by the United States did not immediately shoot down the "Eagle" fighter at the first time of implementation, but the first "Eagle" fighter had to leave the battlefield and return to the base. This is also equivalent to indirectly achieving the purpose of the 'beast trap' plan.
Two 'Los Angeles' nuclear submarines 'Salt Lake City' and 'Chicago', hidden in the waters of the Persian Gulf, launched 24 new 'Patriot' submarine-to-air missiles at one time, and near Darth Island, 70 kilometers southeast of the battlefield, the long-hidden 'Boxer' strike brigade of the U.S. Fifth Fleet also launched at the same time. More than 20 missiles were fired. More than 40 new Patriot missiles rushed to the "Shawk" fighter group on the battlefield.
In the 'batch trap' plan, the United States has prepared a total of 100 such new missiles, but half of them are land-based and are deployed on the coast of Qatar. The original plan was to lure the Somali strategic air force near the Qatari peninsula and enter the components of nuclear submarines, ground ships and land-based missile launchers. The Somali strategic air force was wiped out in one fell swoop in the ambush. But now, because the plan suddenly has to be adjusted according to the changes in the situation, the new missiles launched are only half of the original plan.
" Bang..."
After a series of unconventional maneuvers and the help of laser anti-missile systems, Karim finally got rid of the tracking of the new Patriot missile, but at this time, a harsh explosion came from the wireless communication.
In the huge air battlefield filled with hundreds of fighters, in the air of engine roaring and missiles, elite pilots from many countries were stunned by the explosion at the same time when they were fighting for life and death.
A new Patriot missile accurately hit the left wing of a fleeing 'Eagle' fighter. The missile combat department directly blew off the left wing of the 'Eagle' fighter. The plane soon lost its balance in the air like a drunken spiral and rolled down to the sea below.
But then, the fighter, which rolled at a height of more than 10,000 meters, suddenly disintegrated in the air, and then violently exploded into countless fragments and filled the sky at a speed of nearly 2,000 meters per second.
The plane was hit at the speed of Mach 6, and then destroyed the aircraft structure and disintegrated. The pilot suffocated to death before he could even jump, and then disappeared in the disintegration and explosion of the plane.
The 'Eagle' fighter was shot down?
The powerful 'Hailhawk' fighter, the devil in the eyes of American pilots, the messenger of Allah in the United Air Force, and the almost invincible 'sixth generation' fighter was shot down!
American pilots quickly reacted and immediately cheered in the wireless communication. Some pilots also took the opportunity to attack the insane United Air Force fighters and shot down two United Air Force fighters.
"Ban!"
When everyone had just reacted, at a height of 20 kilometers above the battlefield, under the 'encirclement and interception' of three new Patriot missiles, even if the 'Godhawk' fighter had a laser anti-missile system, it was hit by another missile by another missile after a counterattack. This 'Godhawk' battle In this way, the fighter was shot down directly by the missile, and at such a high altitude and at a speed above Mach 6, the pilot chose to parachute and could not escape.
Two aircraft were shot down, and one was injured and forced to withdraw from the battlefield. Suddenly, the U.S. "beast trap" plan to hit the morale of the United Air Force far beyond imagination. Some joint air force pilots, who originally had the desperate spirit of American pilots, have plummeted their morale. Not to mention the extraordinary performance, they can play the normal water. The flat 80% is not bad.
Colonel Yazdani, the combat commander of the Joint Air Force, and Colonel Jababa, the commander of the Strategic Air Force, are trying their best to support themselves and stabilize the depressed mood of the pilots.
You can't lose this air battle!
... "What? Only two were shot down and one was injured? General Burton, the commander of the five-generation air base, looked extremely ugly and even pale after hearing the report from the front line.
The carefully prepared plan only achieved such a little result in the end, which was unacceptable to General Burton. He believes that the Pentagon and the White House will not accept the result.
The number of Somali strategic air forces is small, but there is still one squadron. The loss of the three aircraft has little impact on the overall situation. And after the implementation of this plan, the United States lost the possibility of reimplementation in a short time.
Although the staff officer told him that the 'beast trap' plan had a serious impact on the morale of the United Air Force, the U.S. Air Force had moved back to its previous losses. This shows that the plan has also achieved practical surname effect. But with this kind of comfort, if it is normal, General Burton may really go down the steps, but the success or failure of this air battle is too important. He can't force himself to accept such comfort.
"No, 'Salt Lake City' and 'Chicago' are dangerous now!" General Burton's face suddenly changed. He remembered the two nuclear submarines that launched missiles. It didn't cost much. The two nuclear submarines had been exposed, and the United Air Force would never let them go.
"General, please don't worry. With the cover of our fleet, the Joint Air Force can't draw much strength to deal with them." The staff officer comforted again.
But after he finished speaking, he noticed the change in the general's face.
"You say... who is more important, two nuclear submarines or hundreds of aircraft? Now we have to give up one. The 'batch trap' plan has not achieved the expected goal, and we must consider saving more power. General Burton suddenly asked helplessly.
