readx;?? The Phoenix missile, or the American AIM-54 missile, has the greatest advantage of its range, as well as its active guidance

The top range of up to 185 kilometers allows it to launch the enemy outside the range of any air-to-air missile, and seize the most advantageous first strike position. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, it still has obvious flaws, as a weapon originally used to intercept Soviet bombers over the ocean, its range ensures the safety of the fleet behind it, but the difficulty of maneuvering brought by large targets makes it inherently less maneuverable for missiles.

Having said all this, to put it simply, it is really an amazing result that four Phoenix missiles can be launched from a distance of 150 kilometers and can achieve a 50 percent hit rate.

On the one hand, there was the Annam Air Force, which was indeed not mentally prepared for battle, and the battle began to reach suddenness.

It is likely that the pilots on combat-ready duty have not yet entered the state of mind of the battle, and on the other hand, the poor avionics performance of the MiG-23.

In addition to the radar-locked alarm, the MiG-23 wants to detect the projectile mentioned by the Phoenix missile, and the search range must be narrowed to at least 25 kilometers.

At this distance, the Phoenix missile has long entered the inescapable terminal guidance range. If it weren't for the long flight, which consumes a lot of kinetic energy from the missile, the engine would have been turned off long ago. Of these four MiG-23s, I'm afraid none of them will be able to escape.

Although the F14 is the earliest third-generation aircraft, the performance advantage of the third-generation aircraft over the second-generation aircraft has exceeded the scope that can be compensated.

It can be said that in terms of performance, the F14 and its accompanying weapons have comprehensively and greatly surpassed the heights that second-generation aircraft can achieve.

It's not a level of competition at all.

When the Phoenix missile after two minutes, crossed 150 kilometers and hit two MiG-23s. Launching their F14s, they have also broken through into the plains of northern Annam.

The straight-line distance from Hanoi is not even 100 kilometers. The missiles of the Republic Air Force are ready to threaten the capital of Annam.

Although two fighter planes were shot down, the balance of power between the air forces of the two countries in this airspace has changed inversely.

In these two minutes, the F14 that invaded the northern part of Annam seemed to poke a hornet's nest.

Before the 90s, the Annan Air Force had a total strength of more than 30,000 troops, more than 500 planes of various types, and more than 350 combat planes.

Among them, there are forty J-6 fighters, fifty-three Su-22 attack aircraft, one hundred and twenty-four MiG-21BS, and forty MiG-23M fighters.

These combat aircraft were divided into three air divisions of two to three regiments each. Two divisions were stationed in the north and one division in the south.

The five aviation regiments in the north are all Annam elites, two regiments of MiG-21BS, one regiment of MiG-23M, a number of Su-22 attack aircraft and non-combat aircraft. The total number of combat aircraft is as high as more than 200, distributed among 20 air bases.

The Chinese Air Force is not the US military in 1991, and it is impossible to destroy such a huge Annam air force in the first attack on Ponet.

In other words, these two minutes are enough for the Annam Air Force Command to mobilize the entire Annam Air Force.

All the fighters of the Annam Air Force on combat readiness were lifted into the air, and in a short period of time, at least 10 MiG-23M fighters and more than 20 MiG-21BS fighters were crowded into the airspace north of Hanoi.

This speed of reaction and air force, to be honest, the Republic Air Force in 1979 may really have to weigh it.

But it's a pity that the Air Force of the Republic has long been different from what it used to be.

Entering the 100-kilometer air defense circle of Hanoi, the number is contrasted, four to thirty-two.

"This is the cave, reassign the target of the attack, the Phoenix missile over-the-horizon attack. ”

The squadron leader's voice in the combat network remained calm, and the AWG-9 radar tracked twenty-four nearest MiG-23M and MiG-21BS fighters, while assigning four MiG-23Ms to four F14 fighters depending on the threat of enemy fighters.

With the squadron leader's order, four Phoenix missiles were launched again. This time, the Annan people have probably adjusted their mentality. The drivers of the MiG-23M presumably recalled the legendary Iraqi technology against the F14.

The MiG-23M, which was locked onto the attack, first climbed to the maximum horsepower, and began to descend to the left or right at the same time that the missile image appeared on the radar display.

The kinetic energy converted into kinetic energy can bring the speed of the aircraft to the extreme, which not only reduces the time for the aircraft to get out of the radar to lock the perspective, but also makes the Phoenix missile designed for long-range bombers a little helpless -- the huge body of the bomber is absolutely unable to make a sharp turn to the left and right, so the guidance head of the Phoenix missile is a little less sensitive in this regard.

Obviously, this hand worked well. After flying for a minute and a half and crossing a distance of 100 kilometers, the four missiles hit only one MiG-23M fighter.

Relative to the Annam Air Force, whose total number is still increasing, the four F14s seem to be rushing towards Don Quixote of the windmill.

In modern air warfare, third-generation aircraft have far more requirements for airspace than in the past. In World War II, hundreds of aircraft flew by both sides at a time in British air battles. Bombers, fighters, in droves, even obscuring the sky.

In the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, in a small area of the MiG corridor, a generation of jet planes could still organize hundreds of fighters to fight in the air.

Second-generation fighters, with the exception of the Iran-Iraq war, do not seem to have any instances of large-scale conflicts in world wars. As for the tactical level of the two Irans, let's not talk about it.

Oh, and that can't be said either. The Israelis once flew the second-generation fighter to achieve a brilliant victory, and in the third Middle East war, the Israelis once achieved an astonishing result of 26 to 451, but the vast majority of Arab fighters were destroyed on the ground.

It seems that in the history of world air warfare, there has never been such a disparity between the second-generation and third-generation aircraft.

The flight and radar performance of the second-generation aircraft still require the intensive use of fighter jets as in the past. In an airspace, a large number of combat aircraft can be gathered.

However, the airspace requirements of the third-generation aircraft are different from those of the second-generation aircraft. With the improvement of the performance of third-generation aircraft, the number of third-generation aircraft in the airspace is too large, which will cause waste tactically.

For example, now.

After flying at a combat speed of three and a half minutes, Jia Ji'an's F14 fighter has reduced the distance between it and Annan's air formation to less than 50 kilometers.

And by this time, all the Phoenix missiles in the formation had been used up. With its unique over-the-horizon air combat capability, the F14 seems to have become a little embarrassed in front of a large aircraft group formation.

At the same time, the pilots of the Annan Air Force, who were alarmed by the surprise attack, breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the third-generation aircraft on which the northern powers have placed high hopes is nothing more than that! A fighter plane of tens of millions of dollars can only achieve such results in the face of the heroic Annam Air Force, which is not afraid of sacrifice.

"Comrades!"

In the communications network of the Annan fighters, the commander of the combat readiness flight regiment personally flew a MiG-23M fighter and seized the opportunity to boost morale.

"The F14 in the middle of the repair is nothing more than that, as long as we rush into the line of sight, no matter how advanced the fighter is, it is difficult to beat the encirclement of our four or five fighters?

"Rush! Behind us is Hanoi, and Comrade Commander is watching us!"

With the shouting of the commander of the combat-ready flight regiment, shouts one after another suddenly sounded in the communication network.

Thirty-one fighters, following the guidance of the bullet mountain long-wave radar, rushed in the general direction of the F14 formation.

"Cave, hole!"

Seeing that he was about to engage the enemy, Jia Ji'an's eyes hidden behind the anti-glare mask flashed, and he suddenly shouted in the communication network: "I'm a cave kidnapper, ask for support, I'm going to use that - backstab!"

The call in the communication network was quiet for only a moment, and Dong Mi's voice still sounded extremely calmly: "Dong Mi understands that Dong Mi and Dong Wu fly in formation and meet the enemy on their own. I will give you support and follow my guidance to meet the enemy. ”

Jia Ji'an calmly and steadily waved the joystick in his hand, the height of the F14 fighter began to drop rapidly, and an exciting answer sounded in the communication network: "Dong Guan understands!"

The four-plane formation of the F14 fighters, which began to separate as the group approached the enemy. Dong Mi's No. 1 began to climb upwards as fast as it could, while No. 4 quickly began to lose altitude until its own plane completely disappeared into the long-wave radar of the Annamite people.

The No. 2 and No. 3 planes formed a two-plane formation, forming an impregnable wall between the No. 1 aircraft and the enemy's aircraft group.

The F14 fighter jet, which turns on afterburner and enters the supersonic state, can fly at a speed of more than Mach 2 per hour.

As the fighter piloted by Jia Ji'an continued to reduce its altitude, he not only disappeared into the long-wave radar of the Annan people, but also disappeared into the entire surveillance network of the Annan people.

Whether it is the MiG-23M or the MiG-21BS, its poor radar performance is almost equivalent to nothing on the ground.

After the loss of all ground-based radars on the front line, this is the ideal stage for the classic tactical low-altitude penetration of third-generation aircraft.

"Attention to Dong Guai, the intelligence center's intelligence shows that a MiG-23M in the enemy formation has a strong electromagnetic response, and now guide you to approach it. ”

Jia Ji'an's F14 had already reduced the angle of the swept wing to a minimum at this point, increasing its speed to at least Mach 1.8 with minimal drag. The distance between him and Annan's fleet is rapidly decreasing.

He spared a small semicircle, and at dusk the sun was about to set, and no one could find him in the most terrible visual conditions.

Even if they were to be witnessed on the ground in Annan and report to the Annan Air Force by telephone -- and then report to the air defense command -- I am afraid that the Annan Air Force would have been completely wiped out long ago.

The commander of the Annan Combat Readiness Flight Regiment, without knowing anything, has been rounded by Jia Ji'an behind his back.

After the radar suddenly turned on and locked on the MiG-23M, Jia Ji'an smiled and watched the enemy plane perform a clumsy evasion maneuver, and quickly pressed the weapon launch button.

"Fox One, one launch!"
