Chapter 338: The First Battle Between the Chinese Air Force and the Soviet Air Force!

The anxious call of the flight dispatcher was quickly picked up by the Sky Eye 2 in the sky and the four F14A Tomcats cruising in the nearby airspace.

The AN/APY-7 P-band pulse Doppler radar developed by Hughes developed by Hughes on the E2 Hawkeye early warning aircraft can divide the 360-degree azimuth circle into 32 sectors according to different combat mission conditions, and select the appropriate working mode to combine scanning in each independent sector area, which can track 300 targets at the same time, process 50~180 targets, and a radar scan can ask the friend or foe identification system of 80 working targets.

Suddenly spotting the Annan Air Force fighter group flying at high speed in the south, the YJ02 early warning aircraft accelerated away from this high-risk area, and at the same time notified Tianyan 2 and the nearby F14 fighter formation on combat duty to rush to the air to intercept the load.

"Call the cat nest, call the cat nest, two enemy planes are approaching me, they are climbing up, damn, their speed is too fast!" Liu Dawei, the pilot of the U2 reconnaissance, turned on the afterburner and instantly accelerated and quickly climbed to a height of more than 20,000 meters, while making an emergency call for help through the radio equipped with the flight helmet.

Soon, the U2 climbed to a ceiling of 22,250 meters.

Before Liu Dawei could catch his breath, he immediately saw two MiG-25 fighters produced by the Mikoyan Design Bureau of the Soviet Union, which he had seen pictures, climbing out of the clouds with murderous energy.

"Call the cat nest, call the cat nest! It's the MiG-25, it's two MiG-25s! I see them, they're approaching at a rapid pace! Damn, shit, the MiG-25 is firing missiles at me!" Liu Dawei maneuvered the U2 to roll while constantly releasing decoy bombs.

......A series of infrared decoys were released, and the stars flew and bloomed in the night sky.

The AA7 air-to-air missile, which uses inertial guidance + radio command correction + unsegmented semi-active radar guidance, does not pay any attention to these decoy shells. Instead, it drew a long evil arc in the sky, and continued to stare at its target without relaxing.

"Dog, mother, I can't avoid it. I can't avoid it!, please a......venge me by the brothers of the cat litter."

The AA7 air-to-air missile, dragging an orange-red tail flame and carrying a kiss of death, rushed towards the U2 reconnaissance plane, which was maneuvering to evade with all its might.

Prefabricated fragmentation high-explosive warhead at the nose of the missile. The U2 reconnaissance plane was easily torn into flying fragments, and together with the pilot Liu Dawei, it turned into a yellow-red fireball that suddenly bloomed in the moonlight.

Our army's wartime general channel, the radio stations of all units have received the most embarrassing call for help and last wishes from Liu Dawei, the No. 2 pilot of Tianyan.

YJ02 Eagle Eye early warning aircraft. Because of the timely warning, the rapid evacuation of the dangerous airspace, in the high-speed Cat No. 26 led by the four F14A Tomcats, very lucky to escape.

Somewhere in Lang Son City, the electronic warfare command center of the DA division.

Yang Weiping blushed at this time, picked up the microphone of the Air Force Strike Channel, and said in a deep voice: "Maowo No. 2 is all dispatched to ruthlessly defeat the arrogance of the Soviet Air Force! Avenge the glorious sacrifice of Comrade Liu Dawei! Target Location 203." The distance is 36000, the height is 9000, the number is 10, and the bombing operations of the H-6 group are not disturbed at all costs!"

"Cat's Nest 2 received, target azimuth 203. Distance 36000, height 9000, quantity 10. ”

"The Cat 26 formation is intercepting and has already received the enemy!"

"The Cat 29 formation has rushed to the target position and will arrive in three minutes!"

"Cat 35 formation, cat 39 formation, cat 42 formation are performing escort!"

"The Cat 48 formation has taken to the skies!"

After receiving the order, all 24 F14A Tomcat fighters of 6 formations of the 2nd Independent Aviation Group of the Air Force went into battle.

The eight F14As belonging to the Cat-26 formation and the Mao-29 formation, which received the interception task, abandoned the auxiliary fuel tanks one after another, opened the afterburner, and rushed at high speed to the combat airspace personally reported by Director Yang in the thunderous sonic boom that broke the sound barrier.

Soon, four F14A Tomcats, using the airborne over-the-horizon radar, found four MiG-29s flying at high speed, and when these four MiG-29s entered the range of long-range air-to-air missiles, the immortal bird long-range air-to-air missiles that had already been connected to the power supply for preheating roared out of their chambers.

The long plane of the Cat 26 formation, the F14A Tomcat with the fuselage identification F026, the captain Wang Wei issued an order on the strike channel: "Brothers, kill these four MiG-29s, and I will invite everyone to have a big meal after landing!"

"Captain, look at it!" replied the Hunter 25 wingman with a relaxed smile.

The four Immortal Bird long-range air-to-air missiles with a range of nearly 100 kilometers were like four flying fire meteors from the Nine Heavens, cutting through the four orange-red trails and flying towards the unpredictable night sky ahead.

"Attention! There are missiles! There are missiles! Polar bear formations pay attention to dodge!"

"Bitch, bitch, raised, the range of the Huaxia Air Force's missiles is too long! Pull it up, pull it up quickly!"

The public radio channel of the polar bear formation was chaotic and noisy, and there was constant swearing.

The "Missile Attack" radar warning system emitted a burst of "beep" buzzing alarms. The radar jamming of the MiG-29 constantly increases the power. But the constant and rapid sound of the alarm made Vasilyev feel inexplicably nervous, and this bad psychology was unprecedented.

The "beep ......" alarm sound jumped red after a long beep, and the continuous beep became more harsh.

This kind of alarm indicates that the radar signal has become locked.

"Damn!" Vasilyev scolded, and immediately kicked the rudder, pulled the lever, and made a sharp turn with the highest turning rate of the MiG-29. The whole plane made a sideways sharp turn in the air at high speed.

Vasilyev tried to use this high-G maneuver to allow the fighter to quickly increase the off-axis angle and, at the maximum instantaneous turning speed, turn to a position where the radar wave is perpendicular to the direction of flight. As a result, the radar of the locked Huaxia fighter was unlocked, and the semi-active radar-guided missile was directly disabled.

At the moment when Vasilyev, a major of the Soviet Air Force, drove the fighter plane to make a sharp turn at high speed, an immortal long-range air-to-air missile whistled across the top of the MiG-29 that was turning rapidly and at a large angle, and the undead bird that had lost its target flew out of an arc trajectory that meandered towards the sky with a tail flame, and rushed headlong into the clouds in the night sky.

"Bitch, bitch, raising!" Vasilyev cursed angrily. If it weren't for his excellent flying skills, he would have returned to the Soviet Union this time.

As the F14A Tomcat and MiG-29 flew at high speed in each other's mid-range air-to-air missile range, the Huaxia Air Force and the Soviet Air Force flew their best fighters. Embark on a life-or-death aerial dogfight.

"Damn! I was bitten by a missile fired by the Huaxia Yankees, shit! I can't shake off that missile! God! Another missile is flying towards me! Bitch, son, raising, how can the Huaxia Yanes have their eyes on Lao Tzu......"

"Shit! I'm going to get hit! Damn, I'm getting hit! Damn bastard. I'm falling, repeating, I'm falling...... I'm going to catapult and skydive......"

"Polar Bear III crashed. Again, one of our MiG-29s was shot down and we have already lost the Polar Bear III!"

At an altitude of 12,000 meters 60 kilometers to the northwest, the F14A Tomcats of the Cat 35, Cat 39, and Cat 42 are searching for the six MiG-25s intercepted by the Cat 26 and Cat 29 formations in a row with the largest arc fan.

The two E2 Eagle Eye early warning planes, YJ01 and YJ02, were both engaged in the search radar at this time, and the detection direction was aimed at the high-altitude direction.

The high-altitude and high-speed penetration capability of the MiG-25 makes the F14A Tomcat, which has a practical ceiling of 18,290 meters, unable to intercept it for a while.

The six MiG-25s that had just broken through the eight F14 interceptions had to wait for the four MiG-29s behind to catch up because of the strict regulations of the Soviet Air Force. Form a formation and then attack. The flight speed was reduced from Mach 3 to Mach 1.8.

As soon as the speed of these six MiG-25s was reduced, they were immediately searched by the YJ02 AWACS aircraft.

"Found target, azimuth 183, distance 24200. The height is 22000, the number is 6!" The dispatching officer of the YJ02 early warning aircraft gritted his teeth and shouted into the radio: "It was two of these six MiG-25s that knocked out our Tianyan-2!"

The Cat-39 and Cat-42 formations, having received the order, did not hesitate to adjust the climbing angle of the F14A to the maximum limit of seventy degrees, and while climbing, they simultaneously launched the immortal birds.

Sixteen Immortal Bird missiles with a range of 100 kilometers, fired in one salvo, and flew at high speed at an altitude of 22,000 meters.

"Oh my God! Hurry up and get rid of it!"

"Shit, I'm so damn locked by Huaxia Yankee's missile!"

"Bitch, bitch, raise, speed up, speed up, speed up, speed up......"

In order to wait for the four MiG-29s led by captain Vasilyev, these six MiG-25s could only reduce the flight speed, but now if you want to accelerate to Mach three, the acceleration time is obviously not enough.

"Who's going to save me! I'm going to get hit......"

"Oh my God! I've been hit! I'm falling......"

"My Tarma was also hit......"

"Eject! Eject immediately!"

"The polar bear formation is evacuated at full speed! Operation canceled! Operation canceled!" The order of Air Marshal Pokryshkin suddenly came from the public radio channel of the Soviet Air Force aid volunteers.

Vasilyev, of course, received the order, but he could not get rid of the F14A that was entangled in him for a while.

"Polar bear, all evacuate!" Vasilyev nimbly used his high-speed maneuver to try to shake off the F14A that was staring at him, and at the same time notified his companions to evacuate quickly on the radio.

To Vasilyev's great dismay, the Huaxia pilot kept biting his tail and pestering him from the side.

This situation made him quickly realize that the Huaxia Air Force must know the rear launch characteristics of the R73 Aphid missile mounted on the MiG-29!

Realizing this, Vasilyev quickly adjusted his tactics, and at the same time he informed the pilots of the other three MiG-29s about the situation.

With a series of maneuvers evasive, Vasilyev tightly occupied an offensive position on the tail of an F14.

The F14A, marked F025, constantly made difficult maneuvers such as barrel rolls and Inmaiman maneuvers to try to shake off the attack of the MiG-29 behind.

Another MiG-29 burst in the air and became a ball of fire. Broken pieces of aluminium scattered down one after another.

Not only does the F14A have long-range attack capabilities, but it is also excellent for mid-to-close-range grappling. The sparrows and rattlesnakes mounted under the wings make the tomcat an excellent aerial cat.

Vasilyev gritted his teeth, ignoring the desperate cries for help from the Polar Bear 4 pilot when he crashed, and he insisted on biting the tumbling and maneuvering F14A heavy fighter without letting go.

Seeing that the fighter piloted by the Huaxia pilot in front of him made a high-speed steering maneuver at a large angle, Vasilyev pulled the nose of the plane and pulled out a beautiful high-G maneuver, cutting the radius to directly lock on to the target.

Two AA11 close-range combat air-to-air missiles flew off the pylons under the wings at a speed of two seconds and pounced on the target.

The F14A, which was attacked by enemy missiles, rolled sideways in succession and fired a flurry of infrared decoys. Scatter a field of fireworks in the night sky.

One AA11 was jammed by the decoy and exploded headlong inside the decoy, but the other AA11 passed through the interference formed by the infrared decoy bomb and continued to bite the desperately maneuvering F14A.

The pilot of our army, with the number F025, controlled the F14A Tomcat and made another large-angle maneuver, and immediately made a maneuvering action at the AA11 air-to-air combat missile dragging a long orange tail flame, in order to get rid of the AA11 that was holding on to him.

Perhaps because he was too nervous, the pilot of F025 made a low-level error of judgment that he should not have.

The sharp tail of the staggered AA11 slashed through the right rear wing of the F14A, and the damaged Tomcat suddenly fell into a state of imbalance.

The AA11 air-to-air combat missile that came back was like an extreme westerly flow, and it crashed headlong into the tail of the fuselage of the F14A quickly and accurately, exploding the entire fighter into two sections of burning wreckage.

Finally knocked out an F14 of the Huaxia Air Force! Vasilyev didn't have time to be complacent, and then he rolled sideways and slid down, turning around and leaving the air battle.

The continuous high-maneuverability maneuver allowed his beloved MiG-29 to consume a lot of fuel. In addition, the polar bear formation suffered a big loss this time, losing two-thirds of its fighters, although he also killed an F14 of the Huaxia Air Force with his superb flying skills, but if he doesn't leave now, he will definitely not be able to get out.

Vasilyev could only return to Yangang Air Base with his inner reluctance and hatred, in order to fight again and avenge his fallen partner. (To be continued.) )
