Chapter 361: Petraeus's Ruthlessness

In fact, this was just the beginning, and the US pilots saw a variety of dodging missile maneuvers.

For example, a fighter jet flew high into the air with a missile in a near-vertical motion, and when it was about to be overtaken by the missile, it suddenly turned its nose, dived vertically, and then used its cannon to blow up the oncoming Sidewinder missile.

There are also two fighters teasing a Sidewinder like a butterfly, and every time the missile is about to lock on to a fighter, another fighter plane will immediately fly over to attract the attention of the infrared seeker of the Sidewinder combat missile, and then before it can be locked, another fighter plane will come over and take its place, until the fuel of the Sidewinder missile runs out, it does not touch a single hair of these three planes.

In addition, two fighters that were pursued by missiles simply flew in the air and used their cannons to shoot down the Sidewinder missiles that were chasing behind them.

"Retreat, retreat immediately!"

While most people were still amazed at the capabilities of the enemy pilots, Lieutenant Colonel Kelley, the leader of the 41st Fighter Squadron, was the first to react and shouted in the channel.

The F22 has already fired all the missiles, and the enemy is almost unscathed, in the face of an opponent of this level, the F22 is not to say that it will win the battle, I am afraid it will be difficult to even save its life.

The rest of the pilots also reacted immediately, and at this time, no one dared to slack off, and instantly drove the thrust of the F119 to the maximum, even so, there were four F22s that avoided it, and the F14 that caught up exploded with a series of tracer bullets. Only one pilot made a successful parachute jump.

Not to mention the US military, even Chen Xin himself was far from expecting this kind of result.

Seeing that the F22s were about to escape, Gangyi asked, "Old Bean, what should I do?

Chen Xin laughed and said: "Chase, of course you have to chase, chase me to Edwards Air Force Base, this time you must teach Lao Mei a good lesson." ”

The combat effectiveness of the upgraded F14 gave Chen Xin great confidence, and if he didn't seize the opportunity to beat the water dogs at this time, he might not have a chance in the future.

"The tanker formation split into two groups, one followed me to Edwards Air Force Base. Support the actions of the F14 formation. The other group went to Nellis Air Force Base to support the F15 in combat operations. ”

"Yes!"

At this time, the air battle in the northern airspace was also divided into winners and losers, with thirty upgraded F15s vs 24 F22s, and the upgraded F15 was completely victorious.

The only thing that's a bit of a pity. There was an F15 that did not escape the hunt of Sidewinder missiles. Of course. The F22 of the 42nd Squadron of the US Army was also shot down by six aircraft.

Two air battles against the world's most advanced fighter with an aggregate score of ten to one. If it weren't for the F22's superior engines and faster speed than the upgraded versions of the F14 and F15, I'm afraid it would have been wiped out long ago.

Fortunately, the U.S. military has long blocked nearby civil aviation routes, and the air combat area is located in the Arizona desert, which is inaccessible, so that ordinary people have not discovered this shocking battle.

At the same time, the news reached the Pentagon, and in an instant the noisy command center fell into a state of silence.

This is the F22, the sharpest knife of the US Air Force, an invincible fighter with a combat loss ratio of 1 to 30 compared to the third-generation aircraft, and it was defeated so easily?

No one dared to believe it, but they had to believe it, and at this moment, O'Guanhai, Mike Mullen, Leon Panetta, David Petraeus and others all lost their voices.

"What to do? What next?"

Leon Panetta muttered that no one could give him an answer.

At this time, the communications officer stood up again and said, "Report, the latest air situation information from Edwards Air Force Base and Nellis Air Force Base, the enemy is tailing our F22 fleet towards these two air bases. ”

Ao Guanhai only felt that it was dark in front of him, what should he do next, even F22 is not an opponent, what else can stop them?

Admiral Mack Mullen said, "How many fighters does the National Guard have?"

"At the moment we have assembled 88 F15s and 114 F15s......"

Before the adjutant could finish speaking, Admiral Michael Mullen waved his hand, these planes are probably not even a squadron of F22s, how can they be opponents of the enemy.

Okukankai said: "Do you have any countermeasures now?"

No one spoke, except for CIA Director David Petraeus, who opened his mouth, but ultimately did not speak.

Ao Guanhai frowned and said, "David, do you have anything to say?"

David Petraeus hesitated for a moment, and when he saw that all eyes were on him, he said, "Perhaps, there is a way to do it." ”

Okukankai said: "What way?"

David Petraeus said: "Nuclear weapons! Send a clear radio wave to the enemy and tell them that if they continue to entangle, we will launch a nuclear strike on Somalia!"

"This will not work! The consequences of using nuclear weapons are too severe!" Leon Panetta stepped up to stop.

David Petraeus said: "This is just a threat, a means to delay the opponent, the fighter jets carry a limited amount of fuel, after all, they are fighting on the American soil, as long as their fuel is consumed, then they may have to retreat without a fight." ”

"Don't forget, they have ten air tankers in the rear, and in addition, in the other direction, there is a huge fleet of more than two hundred aircraft!"

David Petraeus said: "So we have to delay the time until dawn, and if we really can't do it, then we can simply sacrifice Edwards Air Force Base and Nellis Air Force Base, but the opponent's more than 60 planes must also be left for me, and as for the 200 fighters flying eastward, when they get to the high seas, they are carrying out a wide range of attacks with nuclear bombs to destroy these damn planes." I think it is not difficult for the nuclear missile forces to do this, it is a big deal to cover it up with nuclear tests, anyway, over the high seas, other countries will not turn their faces on us for this. ”

The underground command center fell silent again, and everyone was a little shocked by David Petraeus's ruthlessness and decisiveness, worthy of the ruthless role of being transferred from the commander of the US forces in Afghanistan to the CIA, and perhaps only a soldier who had experienced the war would come up with this kind of life-threatening fight.

If successful, it is highly likely to turn the whole situation around.

O'Guanhai didn't speak, and neither did the others, but they all had their eyes on the first black president in U.S. history, waiting for him to make a final decision. (To be continued......)
