Chapter 455: Hand-to-hand combat

No matter how surprised, angry and dissatisfied Citigroup's top brass may be, large-scale fighter encounters between the two sides are inevitable.

Citigroup's fighters are very experienced, and compared with the modern armies of other big countries that have not experienced much actual combat, Citigroup, as the world's policeman, is constantly fighting large and small battles, and the front-line fighters have reacted in a very timely manner and launched large-scale over-the-horizon strikes.

The Citigroup early warning plane at high altitude immediately assigned the enemy fighter plane as an attack target, and the fighter pilot received the information and data, and the action was very quick to set the target parameters for the missile, and then pressed the missile launch button.

Hundreds of air-to-air missiles were ejected from the fighters one after another, and they swooped down on the enemy planes at supersonic speed, like a black cloud.

There were early warning planes to guide these missiles, and the fighters did not care about it after launching, and then dispersed with three planes as a combat team, covering the surrounding sky with planes, and the roar of the fighters shook a radius of 100 miles, and the huge roar drove away the schools of fish cruising in the sea below.

The fighters on the Star Empire's side are much calmer, and the fighters use more advanced electric power engines, which are more agile than Citigroup's fighters without noise.

The attack of air-to-air missiles was naturally discovered by Penglai for the first time, and its performance was much more powerful than Citigroup's early warning aircraft, and any wind and grass on the battlefield could not hide it.

If it were the fighters of other countries on the planet in the face of these missile attacks, it would be difficult to get rid of them, but for the aircraft under the control of Penglai, it was too simple.

Penglai has thousands of ways to deal with these missiles, but now he has chosen the most direct and simple way to do it.

The unmanned fighter jet also launched air-to-air missiles and flew towards the incoming Citigroup missile. Citigroup's missiles are aimed at fighters, while the missiles launched by unmanned fighters are more difficult targeting missiles, and this kind of difficult interception attack is only Penglai will easily choose, if it is a computer on the earth, this degree of calculation can definitely make the computer crash immediately.

Under the guidance of Penglai's calculations, the missiles launched by the two sides over the visual range quickly collided with each other accurately, setting off a large fireworks over the Pacific Ocean.

At the same time, hundreds of warplanes from both sides have also entered the combat zone in the sense of modern air combat.

It has to be said that the combat quality of Citigroup's pilots is still very high, and they reacted extremely quickly to the battle, quickly entered the state of combat, and took tactical maneuvers one after another, and combat missiles were launched one after another.

What followed was the expected melee of fighter planes on both sides, and the largest air battle since the last world war broke out.

The battle was so intense that warplanes were falling or blowing up every second.

Inside the Crescent Island base, Shi Xuan was holding popcorn while watching the fierce close-range air battle on the screen with relish, the two sides added up to more than a thousand fighters entangled in a scuffle, the scene was more hot and real than any Hollywood movie.

"Penglai, can you record this picture, I think the next movie may be able to use it."

"Absolutely, but you can do the same with filmmaking software."

"Hehe, that's still a little different, these Citigroup drivers can't be made by data simulation, that feeling is different!"

Shi Xuan's unmanned fighter was destroyed, but it was just the loss of the plane, with Penglai here, another one could be built in ten minutes, and the loss was very small, but Citigroup was different, and the fall of each plane also meant the sacrifice of at least one pilot.

Regardless of how expensive it is to train a pilot, the time it takes to train a pilot alone is a pain in the eyes of Citigroup's top brass. It takes at least a few years to train a qualified fighter pilot, and now it is only a matter of seconds to sacrifice a pilot.

Looking at the image of the fighter plane falling into the sea like a dumpling from the satellite, Admiral Field couldn't help but scold, "***! Where did these planes come from! ”

The unmanned aircraft under Penglai's control are not only numerous, but also have excellent performance, and it is impossible for them not to be known by the Citigroup military and the CIA, two of the world's best intelligence agencies.

Now the most incredible thing is that Citigroup's intelligence agency does not have any information about these aircraft, and even the models of these aircraft are not even known until now, but they are very similar to Citigroup's F22 in terms of appearance and technical parameters.

The Minister of Defense was also puzzled: "Not only are these planes from strange sources, but the pilots who fly these planes also come out of nowhere, and judging by the tactical movements of their planes, many of them are stronger than our Citigroup pilots!" ”

If they knew that the enemy they were facing was actually an unmanned aircraft, they would probably spurt out a mouthful of old blood, and after fighting for so long, the other side had no casualties at all.

"Can we win?" In his layman's opinion, the video footage broadcast by the satellite showed that the fighters of the two sides were fighting very fiercely, and from time to time fighters on both sides fell.

Admiral Field touched his nose in embarrassment, this was the third time since the start of the war that he was extremely embarrassed, and looked at the information coming from the front, "At present, the battle loss rate and missile hit rate of the two sides are basically the same, according to my experience in the army, if there are no other new changes, I think the two sides are most likely to be tied, and the missiles on the fighter plane will return to the base or aircraft carrier after launching, and then conduct a second round of fighting." ”

"What will be the loss of the fighter?"

"Probably...... 50% or so. ”

This time, the fighters of the two sides fought in close quarters, similar to the white-knuckle combat of the ground forces, and Field's estimate was already optimistic.

When the war is fought like this, for Citigroup, in fact, it has already failed, and none of the purposes of launching the war have been achieved, and there are many losses.

Pu Piercing bit his lip tightly, his index finger kept tapping on the table, if the war fails, he will bear a very big political responsibility, and in this situation, can the war continue?

Once the war loss rate of Citigroup soldiers is too large, there will be strong opposition voices in China, especially when this kind of foreign use of troops is still suspected of "meddling", which is more likely to arouse the public's doubts.

The use of troops against the Star Empire this time is of course determined by the interests of Citigroup, but for Pu Chuan, there is also the intention of using troops abroad to transfer domestic contradictions brought about by the disaster of Pluto's annihilation, but I didn't expect the battle to be like this, and now I have a feeling that it is difficult to ride a tiger.
