Chapter 24: The Birds of Prey Are Coming

Yokota Air Base, located in the western part of the Tama region of Tokyo, Japan, is one of the main bases of the US military stationed in Japan, and is also the command center, main combat base and airlift base of the US Air Force in Northeast Asia, and is subordinate to the US Pacific Air Force Command.

During the Korean War, 85 percent of B-29s took off from here, and during the Vietnam War, it was an airlift hub for the U.S. military.

Today, the headquarters of the U.S. Forces in Japan and the headquarters of the 5th Air Force are stationed at this base.

At one o'clock in the morning, Air Force Lieutenant General Field, commander of US forces stationed in Japan, hurriedly walked into the command center, and the confidential secretary on the side whispered to him on the current state of affairs.

In fact, not long after Chen Xin's F-2 fighter plane took off, the US military noticed the abnormality on the Japanese side.

However, after communicating with the Self-Defense Forces, the Japanese side said that this was an internal affair of the Self-Defense Forces and refused to allow the US military to intervene.

At this time, the United States and Japan were at a critical stage in the negotiations on the relocation of the Futenma airfield of the US military in Okinawa, and the Americans did not want to provoke the sensitive nerves of the Japanese people too much, so they acquiesced in the Japanese side's approach and only kept a close eye on this incident all the time.

Who would have thought that things would get bigger and bigger, Japan dispatched 4 F15J fighters but failed to intercept the magical F-2 fighter, zuihou even launched more than a dozen Patriot 3 anti-aircraft missiles, and even the other party's fur was not hurt.

At this time, the Japanese could not sit still, and hurriedly reported the current situation to the US military and asked for support from the US side.

At this time, four F22 "Raptor" fighters of the US Air Force were stationed at the Yokota base, and this F22 fighter squadron had just taken off from the continental United States a few days ago and passed through the Yokota base in Japan to fly to Kadena Air Base in Okinawa.

In recent years, the United States has sent an F-22 fighter squadron to the Far East for a few months almost every year, one is to contain China and maintain a strong deterrent force in the western Pacific region, and the other is to tell Asian countries that the United States will not give up the Asia-Pacific region easily, and the F-22 can be regarded as the vanguard of the United States' strategy of returning to the Asia-Pacific region.

………………

Chen Xingang got rid of the entanglement of four F15J fighters, and two F22 fighters piloted by Major Philip and Captain Marcus have already taken off from Yokota Air Base.

"Lao Dou, I found an interesting thing, two F22 fighters appeared 60 kilometers in the direction of 4 o'clock in our right rear, do you want to go over and play with them?"

On the HUD head-up display, two sneaky F22 fighter jets are clearly visible.

Chen Xin was a little moved, thought for a while, and said, "Don't worry, let's go to Tokyo first and attract them over." By the way, can you make this F2 fighter invisible?"

"It's simple, just excite the plasma on the surface of the aircraft." ”

Chen Xin felt that the fuselage of the F-2 fighter trembled slightly, and the vibration of the plane due to the air flow seemed to be much smaller, and there seemed to be something more on the surface of the fuselage.

Chen Xin's eyes lit up and said, "Plasma stealth?"

Different from conventional passive stealth jishu, conventional passive stealth relies on the shape layout and absorbing materials to reduce the possibility of being detected by enemy radar, while plasma stealth jishu belongs to active anti-radar stealth jishu, like other active anti-radar stealth jishu (including electromagnetic counter-elimination jishu, radio frequency jammer with suppressive jamming and deceptive jamming / Radar decoy jishu), plasma relies on its own special physical properties and the absorption of incident electromagnetic waves to achieve stealth purposes.

There are two main ways of plasma stealth, one is to use various excitation methods to absorb the plasma generated by the atmosphere on the outer surface of the aircraft to reflect and interfere with radar waves to achieve the purpose of stealth;

The steel hammer is naturally used in the former.

Plasma stealth jishu solves the contradiction between stealth and aerodynamics in the traditional passive stealth jishu, and can obtain stealth capabilities without sacrificing the aerodynamic shape of the aircraft. In addition, the use of form-wrapped plasma can further reduce the aircraft's flight resistance.

But there are pros and cons, and the new jishu not only brings new performance, but also brings a lot of new problems.

First of all, to ionize the gas puts forward high requirements for the power performance, gas ionization needs to exceed 10,000 volts of high pressure, and the plasma to cover the entire surface of the aircraft, there must be a high-power power supply to produce a sufficient amount of low-temperature plasma, the energy consumption is too large, the power supply and fuel are too heavy.

In addition, it is difficult to stabilize the external open plasma flow field, and it is difficult to form a large area of uniform plasma cover, coupled with the fact that the aircraft is constantly changing its attitude in the air, and there are various air currents in the atmosphere, it is difficult to imagine how to maintain the uniformity and stability of the plasma cloud in various situations.

These are important factors restricting plasma stealth jishu from the laboratory to the battlefield, at present, almost all stealth aircraft on shijie use conventional passive stealth jishu, not the plasma stealth that is blown to the sky.

……

The light spot on the radar display of the F22 fighter piloted by Air Major Philip flashed for a moment, disappeared for less than two seconds, and soon reappeared.

But the major's attention was clearly not on this: "Marcus, the Japanese said that guy can hit missiles with aerial artillery, how much credibility do you think?"

Marcus said nonchalantly: "Whether it's true or not, we can try it and find out?" But I think the yellow-skinned monkey is mostly exaggerated, and the aircraft artillery hits missiles, haha, is the pilot possessed by God? Besides, even if he can really use the aircraft artillery to hit missiles, what can we do, we are birds of prey!"

Captain Marcus has always had a certain racial tendency, and in his eyes, whether Chinese or Japanese, they are yellow-skinned monkeys, no different from those.

He skillfully turned on the power supply for the missile, and the F22 main magazine slowly opened, with a voice prompt: "Two AIM-120C7 medium-range bombs are ready." ”

Major Philip was doing the same.

After all, in their opinion, two ghostly F22 fighters against an unarmed third-generation aircraft with 4 medium-range air-to-air missiles is already the highest courtesy to the opponent, I am afraid that the opponent will not know who the enemy is if he is shot down.

In the night sky, two birds of prey spread their bloodthirsty fangs.

"AIM-120C7 is ready. ”

Major Philip and Captain Marcus touched the missile launch button with their fingers.

"Ready, launch!"

Four medium-range interceptor missiles ejected out of the magazine in an instant, and the engines ignited.

The fuselage of the F22 trembled slightly, the main bomb compartment door was closed again, and the nose of the aircraft was raised and climbed out of the launch route.

"Mission accomplished, ready to return. ”

Stealth fighters fight sneak attacks, and no third-generation aircraft can dodge.

Captain Marcus whistled, but the next moment, his relaxed expression froze.

Less than a few seconds after the missile was launched, a gentle female voice prompt from the integrated avionics system suddenly sounded in the cabin: "Warning, warning, radar target lost, radar target lost." ”

On the radar display, the target light point that was clearly visible just now disappeared at some point, you must know that the F22 is equipped with the most powerful active phased array radar AN/APG-77 on the shijie, 2200 launch units allow it to find fighters 200 kilometers away, and it can perfectly achieve "the first enemy to find, the first enemy to launch, and the first enemy to hit".

Not only that, the AN/APG-radar can also perform interpulse frequency conversion and fast scanning, which is difficult for the enemy to detect and locate. At the same time, it is also possible to use time-division methods for electronic intelligence gathering, jamming, surveillance, or communications, which were not possible with previous fighter radars.

But it is such a powerful airborne radar, there will be a situation of target loss, could it be that the airborne radar is malfunctioning, Captain Marcus is a little unbelievable.

Even if the enemy is shot down, the radar will reflect the trajectory of the opponent's crash, and the altitude of both sides has been above 6,000 meters, so it is impossible to hit a mountain.

Captain Marcus was about to contact Major Philip, and Major Philip's slightly flustered voice rang out in the headset: "Marcus, my radar has lost its target. ”

Marcus paused, swallowed and said, "Me too." ”

The channel suddenly fell silent, and for a while, both of them had a feeling of hell.

AIM-120C7 flew headless in the air for several minutes before finally exploding and disintegrating according to the preset commands in the missile chip.
