Chapter 492: Fighting the Birds of Prey

When the Dawning Goddess reconnaissance plane and the four F-22s were about to meet, Yang Chen also received a communication request from the Chinese Air Force.

"This is the Stellar."

"Star, were you in the air before?"

"Yes, I have spotted an Aurora reconnaissance plane intruding into our airspace and am in the process of expelling it."

The other side was silent, and then suddenly burst into anger: "Do you know that you have provoked four F-22s?" ”

"I'm going to have an F-22! I think that if our military obtains the F-22 airframe and the Dawning Goddess reconnaissance plane, it will certainly bring great benefits to the design of China's strategic reconnaissance aircraft and stealth fighters. ”

"Say it lightly! If the Americans were so easy to deal with, how could our country suffer such humiliation in the South China Sea in 01? ”

Yang Chen knew that the other party was talking about the South China Sea plane collision incident on April 1, 01. At that time, when the equipment of the Chinese Air Force was not as good as that of the people, the martyr Wang Wei had no choice but to resort to suicide ramming, which caused the Yankees' EP-3 reconnaissance plane to make a forced landing at the Chinese airport, thus stopping the other side's unscrupulous intrusion into China's airspace to collect intelligence.

This is the humiliation of China, the humiliation of the Chinese soldiers, and the humiliation of the Chinese Air Force. Every member of the Air Force has taken it to heart and does not dare to forget it.

"Times are different. Now we are no longer so weak! Even the most advanced strategic reconnaissance planes and fighters of the United States are not afraid! Let me take the first step in this humiliation. By the way, April 1 is coming, nine years have passed since the events of 01, let me use the most advanced American active fighter and strategic reconnaissance aircraft to pay tribute to the martyr Wang Wei! ”

There was silence again on the other side, and it took a long time before he replied, "I hope you can do it." If you are from the Air Force, I will definitely apply to give you a big medal when the time comes! ”

"Of course I can do it! The medal is no longer needed, leave it to the martyrs who sacrificed their lives to defend the airspace! ”

Cutting off the communication, Yang Chen's gaze at the Dawning Goddess reconnaissance plane became deeper and deeper.

"Here ......

The next moment, an alarm sounded inside the Star: "Warning! Warn! The enemy F-22 fighter is less than ten kilometers away from me! ”

Ten kilometers away, in a high-altitude and high-speed air battle, but in the blink of an eye.

In order to match the F-22's top speed of only Mach 2.25, the Aurora reconnaissance aircraft had to reduce its speed close to Mach 5 significantly, and finally reduced it to Mach 2.

The Star slowed down synchronously throughout the process, and now it is only Mach 2.

"Come on......"

Seeing the escort fighters coming, the Dawning Goddess reconnaissance plane hurriedly smeared oil on the soles of its feet, wanting to take the opportunity of the F-22 to entangle the Star and escape.

"Want to escape? Then you have to ask me if I say yes or not! ”

A smile appeared at the corner of Yang Chen's mouth, and the Xingchen suddenly accelerated, reversed direction, and flew in front of the Dawning Goddess reconnaissance plane, and the "Jinya" 100mm twin-mounted high-speed electromagnetic cannon in the top mid-end turret opened fire suddenly!

"Xingchen 'Jinya' 100mm double-mounted high-speed electromagnetic cannon combat test, start now!"

A huge projectile with a diameter of 100mm and a weight of 20 kg was shot out!

"Shooting warning! Get out of the way! ”

The crew members of the Dawning Goddess reconnaissance plane were shocked!

However, in the case of high altitude and high speed, it is not so easy to dodge the opponent's attack.

However, the crew members of the Aurora reconnaissance plane, who had already closed their eyes and waited for the downed Goddess of Dawn, waited for a long time but did not wait for the arrival of destruction.

When I opened my eyes, I saw that the shot didn't hit at all!

"Did you deliberately miss the hit or didn't hit at all?"

The crew members preferred to believe the latter, but they knew in their hearts that the real situation was probably the former.

At this time, the communication from the Star came:

"I'm sorry, gentlemen, but you can't move on! Honestly, I'll eat those delicious little creatures before I give them to you! That was just a warning. If you don't obey, then even if you don't want to, I'll have to shoot you down. Anyway, your F-22 has arrived. By the way, I forgot to remind you that the shell just fired was a 100mm caliber cannon, so I guess the Vulcan cannon installed in your F-22 column is only 50mm caliber, right? Imagine what it's like to be hit, and then you'll make an informed decision. That's it, chicks, I'm going to hunt the birds! ”

"Shet! Fack! ”

The crew members were furious, but they didn't dare to do anything.

They know very well what 100mm caliber shells mean. Anyway, the Aurora Goddess reconnaissance aircraft will definitely not be able to withstand such a shot.

They didn't care about the machine guns before, but they definitely didn't dare to ignore the shells now.

"What should we do?"

"We have to leave right away! America's property and secrets must not fall into the hands of the yellow-skinned monkey! ”

Someone shouted that he was really loyal to the United States.

But alas, among the Western armies, which have always had a tradition of surrender, such people are in the minority after all.

"Gentlemen, I'm afraid we'll have to stay in this airspace a little longer. For our safety. Until our American Air Force Eagle shoots down that terrible enemy! ”

"Will they succeed?"

"Pray to God......"

When the crew members of the Aurora reconnaissance plane were honestly no longer trying to escape, four F-22s had already been copied from the four breads.

"Shet! Why do yellow-skinned monkeys have such advanced technology? Obviously they were already able to see their plane with the naked eye, but there was still no reaction in the onboard phased array radar! ”

The pilot of an F-22 so cursed.

"With infrared guidance! Believe me, in such a high-speed flight, the mere friction between the skin of the aircraft and the air is enough for our Slammer (prison, nickname for the AIM-120 advanced medium-range air-to-air missile) to beat it into a turkey! ”

The pilot of another F-22 fighter said in an encrypted channel.

"So what are you waiting for? Launch now! ”

"Countdown 3, 2, 1, fire!"

The pilot of an F-22 fighter served as a temporary commander and gave the order to open fire.

Immediately, four missiles were seen detached from the fuselage of four F-22 fighters and flew towards the Star.

After leaving the fuselage, the on-board radar, infrared search and tracking device (IRST), and the Joint Tactical Intelligence Release System (JTIDS) immediately activated to update the position data of the Star in real time, and the missile's solid rocket engine ejected flames, instantly accelerating to Mach 3.

"AIM-120 advanced medium-range air-to-air missile?"

Looking at this missile, Yang Chen sneered, and immediately obtained the data of this missile through the Tianluo satellite system:

AIM-120 air-to-air missile (AMRAAM) developed by the United States

Manufacturer: Raytheon-Hughes Aircraft Manufacturing Co., Ltd

Countries and regions: United States, NATO, Taiwan.

Warhead: 22 kg of high-explosive penetration

Guidance: mid-course radar semi-active \/datalink guidance + end-course radar active guidance

Propulsion: Solid rocket engine

Range: 48 km (practical range)

Maximum firing range: 90 km

Flight speed: Mach 4.

"The top speed is only Mach 4 per hour, if I really want to run, even if I ask you to chase, you can't catch up!"

However, of course, Yang Chen couldn't just run away like this.

"The infrared signature of the spacecraft is still a bit large, and although it has been made as small as possible, it will still be captured by the missile's infrared guidance system. It seems that there is a need for further research and adjustment in this area. ”

The Star's warning system had already sounded a piercing alarm, but Yang Chen was still thinking about improving the Star.

"Warning! Warn! The spaceship has been locked by missiles! The spaceship has been locked by missiles! Take action now! Take action now! ”

"Star Map! Start the start-up weapon interception system. ”

"The kinetic weapon interception system is turned on."

"The coordinates of the enemy's incoming missile are locked!"

"The coordinates of the enemy's incoming missiles have been locked."

On the HUD display, the four incoming AIM-120 air-to-air missiles have been circled with flashing dazzling red halos, indicating that all their states and coordinates have been locked.

"Reactionary kinetic weapon system ready!"

"The reactionary weapon system is ready."

"Start!"

Yang Chen snorted lightly and pressed the start button of the reactionary energy weapon system!

In the next moment, the star map calculator immediately calculates the coordinate position, flight speed, direction and other data of the current four AIM-120 air-to-air missiles within one thousandth of a second, and at the same time calculates the current wind direction, the flight speed of the Star and other data, and calculates to find out what angle and speed the projectile will be launched to intercept the AIM-120 air-to-air missile, and finally import these data into the reactionary energy weapon system, and finally connect to the control system of the Storm .72 caliber electromagnetic machine gun through the reactionary energy weapon system.

Then, the Storm .72 caliber electromagnetic machine gun was energized, and the projectile was fired at a rate of 3,000 rounds per second according to the calculated data.

In the blink of an eye, three AIM-120 air-to-air missiles were hit, and these three AIM-120 air-to-air missiles were instantly detonated, bursting into flames in the air and disappearing into the air.

"Shet!"

All this was less than two seconds after the launch of four AIM-120 air-to-air missiles. After the missile was launched, the F-22 fighter pilots and the crew members of the Aurora reconnaissance plane, who were closely watching the missile's flight, let out a regretful curse.

Then, they pinned all their hopes on one remaining AIM-120 air-to-air missile.

Unfortunately, this AIM-120 air-to-air missile also lived up to their expectations.

"Xingchen, the actual combat test of the 'electric arrow' 20mm ray cannon, begin!"

At the same time, the reactionary weapon system was connected to the 'electric arrow' 20mm ray cannon, which emitted a faint light and fell on the AIM-120 air-to-air missile, which immediately detonated the missile.

The four AIM-120 air-to-air missiles, on which high hopes were placed, were all detonated without achieving any results.

Yang Chen was quite satisfied with this result and nodded:

"Well, yes, the reactionary weapon system is doing okay."

The so-called reactionary weapon system, like the anti-energy weapon system on the Star, belongs to some kind of special system. They do not carry weapons per se, but rather the existing weapons in the spacecraft are integrated so that they can be used as reactionary weapons (i.e., interceptor missiles, aircraft, etc.) or counter-energy weapons (i.e., energy weapons that resist lasers, microwaves, ultrasonic infrasound, etc.).

Pure software, to be exact. For now, the work of such a system is satisfactory.
