Da Nang Air Base, Annam.

Pokryshkin's heart is also bleeding at this moment.

He didn't expect that the Huaxia Air Force would still have an F14 flying regiment hidden!

What made him even more angry was that Wen Jinyong temporarily changed his mind and took it upon himself to transfer 18 MiG-23s and MiG-21s of the Annan Air Force to intercept the Jian-7 of the Huaxia Air Force to ensure the Su-25's ground attack fire support.

This idiot simply doesn't understand that if he didn't have air supremacy, even if he entered Nanding City now, he would be blown to pieces by the bombers of the Huaxia Air Force!

Seeing that the time for the MiG-29 to stay in the air is approaching, without the MiG-23 and MiG-21 of the Annan Air Force as cover, the batch of MiG-29s that have not yet completed the final opening will definitely not be able to withdraw from the battle.

This air battle is really important for the further improvement of the MiG-29, and in any case, it is necessary to ensure the safe return of a certain number of MiG-29s!

In desperation, Pokryshkin had to reluctantly order all the MiG-25s at high altitude to rush down and cover the retreat of the MiG-29s.

Although they knew that the low and medium altitude of the road was not the combat airspace of the MiG-25, the strict regulations of the Soviet Air Force made the pilots of the 40 MiG-25s, who had been hovering high in the sky on the battlefield looking for fighters, firmly carry out the orders of Air Marshal Pokryshkin. Even if they knew that they were risking their lives, they swooped down from the sky without fear.

Since the end of the Second World War, the Soviet Union has been forced to significantly increase the level of the Air Defense Force in view of the strength of the US Air Force. So much so that the current Soviet Air Force has to obey the command of the Air Defense Force, and the combat command system and everything are controlled by the Air Defense Force.

In the 60s and 70s, the Syrian and Egyptian air forces, which were trained according to the model of the Soviet Air Force, were repeatedly defeated by the Israeli Air Force, and the Soviet Air Force top brass began to question the idea of the Air Defense Force blindly emphasizing air defense interception.

Because under the idea of air defense interception, the light bomber units of the Soviet Air Force could not be covered by air supremacy and suffered heavy losses. But there was no result.

In the "Yom Kippur War" of 73, the Syrian Air Force obviously had a first-mover advantage, but it was ultimately defeated by the Israeli Air Force. In addition, in this Hua'an War, 32 MiG-23 fighters of the Annan Air Force were slaughtered by 24 F14s of the Huaxia Air Force, and finally the top brass of the Soviet Air Force could no longer sit still.

After learning that the F14 equipped by the Huaxia Air Force was so strong, although Pokryshkin had retired from the position of chief inspector general of the three armed forces of the Soviet Union, he knew that there was a battle. Relying on the fact that almost all the Soviet Air Force generals were his protégés, he took the initiative to ask for personal command.

Pokryshkin had the mentality of looking for experience and direction for the undeveloped development of the Soviet Air Force, despite the fact that he was already eighty years old. When he came to Annan, he wanted to get a good look at what the most advanced fighter in the United States really looked like.

However, the air battle he had carefully planned was now gradually out of his expected orbit, and the situation was becoming more and more unfavorable for the Soviet Air Force.

None of the 25 Su-24s came back, but I am afraid that it is already more than lucky.

There are now only fifteen MiG-29s left, and they will never be withdrawn again. It's never going back.

In the sky of the battlefield of Nanding.

The 40 MiG-25s that dived down at high speed had already been discovered by a YJ02 early warning aircraft locked at a high altitude, and all the pilots of the F14A Tomcat battle in the No. 2, No. 3, and No. 4 formations of the cat nest were promptly notified to be on guard.

As the twenty F14A tomcats belonging to the Cat's Nest No. 4 arrived in this airspace, Vasilyev also felt extremely desperate.

Marshal Pokryshkin asked the MiG-25 at high altitude to cover the return of the MiG-29 at all costs, and Vasilyev, of course, received it by radio at the same time. As a major of the Soviet Aerospace Forces. He knew very well that the MiG-25, which is only suitable for high-speed interception at high altitudes, will be wiped out once it lowers its altitude to fight in medium- and low-altitude airspace.

The Su-25 strike aircraft group at low altitude is now also in an unprecedented crisis.

The Jian-7 group of the Huaxia Air Force, knowing that the comprehensive performance of the MiG-23 was comprehensively stronger than the Jian-7, which imitated the MiG-21 on its own, resolutely divided 24 planes and entangled these 18 MiG-23 and MiG-21 at any cost, even if 11 were shot down head-on at one time, they did not flinch.

The remaining 24 Jian-7s were separated and pursued and intercepted by the Su-25 attack group.

The 12 MiG-23s of the Annan Air Force used their acceleration advantage to throw off the 13 Jian-7s that were entwining them, but they had already exhausted the medium-range air-to-air missile room before, and even if the acceleration was faster than our Jian-7, they would have to chase 60 kilometers before they could catch up.

The 12 MiG-23s of the Annan Air Force, which had just caught up with the 24 J-7s, had just caught up and knocked out the 12 J-7s, and the F14A Tomcats that were freed up by the eight commanded by YJ02 swooped down from a height of 5,000 meters, and a round of medium-range Sparrow air-to-air missiles exploded into twelve brilliant fireworks.

The F14 has low variable sweep resistance, an average lift curve, and average horizontal maneuverability at any speed, but the engine thrust is insufficient, it cannot climb vertically and cannot quickly accumulate energy. In the past, it was all up to the undead birds to hit high-value targets. But there is a lot of fuel and strong combat endurance.

The MiG-29 has a certain vertical climb ability, very high subsonic maneuverability, and a large off-axis angle of the R73, which was quite invincible in close combat at that time. The twin salvos of the R27 medium-range one infrared and one semi-active radar can complement each other. And the infrared R27 is a passive search, and the radar alarm is not displayed. However, the Achilles' heel of the 29 is that the flight range is too short, even if it is very close to the airport, it can only hold out for a few minutes before returning home in high-intensity air combat.

The MiG-25 is famous for its high altitude and anti-jamming, and as long as the altitude and speed are maintained, the use of high-speed alternating impact is very suppressive. And the tactics of high-speed dive-speed skimming-pull-up climb can be employed.

But if air combat is carried out at medium and low altitudes, the MiG-25 is typical garbage, and even the J-7 can compete with it.

It's just that in order to cover the return of the surviving MiG-29, the bravery and dreadnought of the Soviet Air Force are also not much worse than the spiritual atomic bombs of our army.

After a fierce battle, 10 MiG-29s successfully slipped away from the battlefield and returned to Da Nang Air Base under the desperate cover of the MiG-25 group.

In this regard, the F14A of our Air Force did not pursue, but pursued the entangled MiG-25 with all its heart.

When the fighters of the two sides reached the limit of their time in the air and returned to their respective airfields to lick their wounds, only 10 MiG-29s and 6 MiG-25s remained of the 150 main fighters in service of the Soviet Air Force. All the rest of the fighters were damaged in battle, and all the pilots who were lucky enough to parachute to escape became prisoners of our army. It can be said that the losses are quite heavy.

With the re-control of air supremacy by our air force, the last desperate struggle carried out by Wen Jinyong on the ground has completely turned into a tragedy.

In this battle, the MiG-23, MiG-21, a small number of Su-7 and Su-25, as well as the anti-aircraft missile and anti-aircraft artillery units participating in the battle, were all wiped out.

Our army damaged 28 F14A Tomcats, one E2 Hawkeye early warning aircraft, and 39 Jian-7 light fighters. There are 75 strong five attack aircraft and 18 A10 warthog attack aircraft.

After killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800 of their own lives, although our air force regained air supremacy, it was also a crushing victory.

This large-scale air battle, which was defined as the "Nanding Air Battle" by the air force schools of various countries in the world, can be said to have a far-reaching impact on the future development of the air forces of various countries.

Since then, the air forces of various countries have begun to study the concept of a multi-role fighter. At the very least, the kits and pods should be able to switch between fighters and bombers freely, and then remove them when the air combat mission is completed.

After the 7th Armored Division and the 123rd Motorized Infantry Division, reinforced by our army, were put into battle, Wen Jinyong gave the order to disarm and surrender in desperation, and then chose to commit suicide by swallowing a gun.

The three most elite armored divisions and 10 infantry divisions of the Annam People's Army were all wiped out, and Le Duan was severely rebuked by Nguyen Van Linh, Long March, and other political opponents who had always been pro-China, and was forced to resign from the general secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Annam and all other posts, thus ending his political life.

Nguyen Van Linh and Long March, who were temporarily in charge of the political situation in Annam, formally submitted a surrender to the Huaxia government, announcing the defeat of the Annam People's Army, and at the same time ordering all the militia forces still resisting in the country to lay down their arms and surrender to the nearby Huaxia army.

Le Duan was overthrown by political enemies, the Annam People's Army was defeated, and the Annam government surrendered to the Huaxia government.

Although our army won this battle, Yang Weiping was not happy at all.

Naturally, a bunch of old foxes in the capital had to worry about the negotiation with the Annan government. What he is now thinking about is the aftermath of those soldiers of our army who died on the battlefield and were wounded.

Soldiers take it as their duty to protect their homes and defend the country, and they take obedience to orders as their duty. It is true that the battlefield is the best place for soldiers, but what should be done with their families? What should be done with those disabled soldiers? What should be done with their families?

We must not let our soldiers shed blood and shed tears!

Yang Weiping secretly warned himself in his heart. Regardless of whether or not the Central Military Commission will carry out a new military reform plan for disarmament after the war, as long as he remains in the post of director of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, he must do his utmost to make good arrangements for the future work and life of the families of martyrs and to properly handle the resettlement of disabled servicemen.

Invalids factories and farms are not absent now, but the business model of these factories and farms is really not competitive in the market.

Once the reform and opening up are deepened and the mainland market in China is fully opened to the outside world, many invalids factories and farms will inevitably face the dilemma of closing down.

Perhaps, we can consider forming a large-scale Invalids Group! Choose a sustainable business model and management model for them.

War is an important factor in promoting industrial and technological progress. Soldiers shed blood and died on the battlefield, and their blood certainly cannot be shed in vain. China's national industrialization system can also have a place for retired soldiers and disabled soldiers, as well as their martyrs and military dependents! )
