Chapter 22: Aerial Combat
Aerial combat not only tests the pilot's flying skills, but also adds tactical thinking, reaction ability and psychological endurance.
Yang Luo's current flying skills are comparable to those of pilots in the army for one or two years.
However, its psychological endurance and reaction ability are quite strong, otherwise they would not dare to fly dangerous actions, and they were leveled at low altitudes.
The battle in the sky continued, with the two J-7Gs flying at high speed, hitting from high altitude to low altitude and back to high altitude from low altitude.
The No. 862 J-7G in front, that is, the vultures of the 123rd Regiment, tried all kinds of methods, but still did not get rid of Yang Luo's pursuit.
There were a few times when he almost succeeded in getting rid of it, but in the end, Yang Luo bit it in time with his strong reflexes.
"I basically figured out what he was capable of and hopefully beat him." Bearing a high amount of overload, Yang Luo still had a calm face and was thinking silently.
After a short and fast pursuit, Yang Luo basically figured out the strength of his opponent.
Knowing the strength of your opponent is crucial in a fight to help you win.
The performance of the two fighters is the same, and blindly pursuing them will not allow them to achieve a quick victory, unless the opponent makes a mistake, or there is a huge disparity in technology between them, and the opponent's technology is weaker than his own, which is obviously impossible.
Therefore, if Yang Luo wants to win, he must think of other ways.
That is to lure the other person to make mistakes.
Yang Luo did not hesitate, he did it when he thought of it, and immediately pulled the lever back with his right hand, raised the nose of the machine, turned on the afterburner device, and accelerated the climb.
The Vulture of the No. 862 fighter, who was always paying attention to Yang Luo, thought that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it, and immediately made a sharp rise and turn maneuver, trying to turn the nose of the plane and gain altitude at the same time.
"Sharp rise and turn, you made a mistake."
Yang Luo kept looking at the J-7G in front of him from the side glass, and saw that the other party made a mistake as he expected, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he did not hesitate to seize the opportunity.
The opportunity is fleeting and there is no room for hesitation.
The opportunity is at the moment when the opponent climbs, if you wait until the opponent successfully turns the nose, the situation will be out of control, and it will no longer be in the hands of Yang Luo.
Press, step on the rudder, change the fighter from the climb, and dive in the direction of the vulture.
The vulture was a spirit, he had thought that this was Yang Luo's deliberate, but he didn't expect Yang Luo's reaction to be so fast, and the diving angle he chose was so tricky.
He is also climbing now, and it is precisely he himself who will take the initiative to send into the radar range of the other party.
The vulture's original idea was to turn the nose of the plane, and even if it couldn't get the first opportunity, at least it should be evenly matched, and not just run away to avoid it like it is now.
"Which pilot of the 122 regiment is this? The response was so fast. The vulture was helpless, unable to continue climbing, and the nose of the aircraft could not be turned around, so it could only choose to continue to evade.
Beads of sweat the size of beans flowed down his cheeks.
The previous chase with 836 had already endured a lot of overload, which consumed a lot of the vulture's physical strength, and it was even more exhausting to be chased by Yang Luo.
Today's vultures, panting violently, greedily breathe in the oxygen provided by the onboard oxygen supply system.
Helpless, very helpless.
Halfway through the sharp ascent, the vultures had lost a lot of speed, and the vulture had to choose to dive down on the bar, making up for the lost speed.
And this is exactly what Yang Luo wants, the reason why he chose not to take the initiative to irradiate himself, but to let the other party take the initiative to send it into the irradiation range of his own radar, is to force the other party to dive in exchange for speed.
Yang Luo dived before the vulture, and he had an advantage in speed, coupled with the advantage in height, the vulture was almost in a catastrophe.
But Lao Fei is Lao Fei after all, his flight experience, technology and psychology are absolutely excellent, and he is not flustered after falling into Yang Luo's trap.
In the dive, various maneuvers, with rich experience and superb technology, actually escaped, so that Yang Luo did not have a chance to lock for more than three seconds.
"It's worthy of being an old bird, and you can make up for it if you make a mistake." Yang Luo sighed, but there was a smile on his face.
Yang Luo didn't have the slightest worry, he won this battle. He now has an absolute advantage, and it is almost impossible for the opponent to turn the tables.
The chase is on again.
Offensive.
Attack fiercely.
This time, Yang Luo bit tighter and attacked more violently, which made the vulture tired to deal with it, and he was almost hit several times.
"I'll go, tail rush maneuver, this is forced to be urgent." Witnessing the vulture's maneuver, Yang Luo almost shouted.
This is a stall maneuver, and it is also one of the few stall maneuvers that the J-7G can do.
Tail maneuver can cut off Doppler radar tracking, in simple terms, it is pulled up at a large elevation angle, deceleration is zero, and then afterburner dive at a large angle.
This is a low-altitude action with a certain degree of danger.
Yang Luo did not panic, he now occupies the advantage of height, and when he saw the opponent climbing at a large elevation angle, he immediately responded and climbed with a lever.
When the fighter reached the highest point and was in an upside-down state, Yang Luo did not continue to do it according to the operation of the catty bucket, but chose to press down the nose of the plane and dive at a large angle.
Because Yang Luo was in the advantage of speed, when Yang Luo dived, the vulture was also diving to gain speed, which just gave Yang Luo the opportunity to attack.
Lock on the 862 fighter, radar irradiation.
"Drop!"
Suddenly, in the cockpit of the 862 fighter, a sharp and rapid alarm prompt sounded.
"Good boy, the reaction is too fast, and the tail rush maneuver can't get rid of you." The vulture, sweating from its face, hurriedly rolled in the dive, trying to break free from the lock.
This time, the vulture had a hunch that no matter what kind of conventional maneuver it used, it would not be able to get rid of the lock-on attack of the fighter behind it.
Unless you make another stall maneuver, but the altitude does not allow it, and the performance of the aircraft does not allow it.
The warning sound, which had just stopped for a second, sounded again, and no matter how maneuvered he did, the warning sound was intermittent.
Choosing the wrong maneuver leads to a lack of speed, and a slow flight speed is like a live target.
If you lose one move, you will lose the whole game.
One second!
Two seconds!
Three seconds!
The fire control radar continued to shine for three seconds, completing the attack and winning the victory.
This is Yang Luo's first official aerial fight, and compared to the previous fights at the training base, it is simply not on a horizontal line.
This battle was hearty.
Yang Luo pulled the lever and changed the No. 845 fighter from the dive attitude and returned to horizontal flight.
Just now, I had been highly concentrated, and I didn't feel anything, but after winning the victory and relaxing my spirit, I felt exhausted.
Fighter jets flying in the air are physically demanding, not to mention the aerial combat that has to endure high overloads at all times.
Before coming up today, Yang Luo had already flown up and landed, and he didn't have time to rest, followed by aerial fighting, so it's no wonder if he wasn't tired.
A fighter plane flew to the left side of the No. 845 fighter plane, and the distance was only about 20 meters.
Yang Luo looked sideways, and the nose number 862 was the vulture that had just been defeated by himself.
"845, I don't think I've seen you, and the pilot before 845 wasn't you." Immediately, an unfamiliar voice sounded in Yang Luo's ears, but it was the vulture that connected to his communication channel.
"I've only been out of the group for less than a month, so it's strange that you've seen it." Yang Luo said in his heart, but what he said was another set of rhetoric: "It's just a temporary flight to 845, my plane has no aviation fuel." ”
"You're amazing, can you tell me your name?"
"You can call me a sheep."
"Sheep, it's so deceitful, I remember you, I'm too tired today, I'll see you next time." After the vulture finished speaking, he drove the fighter plane and rolled left to leave.
"See you next time."
Yang Luo was also very tired, the sweat on his forehead ran down his cheeks, and his right hand couldn't leave the joystick, because of the design of the hand not leaving the lever, he had to wipe the sweat on his forehead with his left hand.
"Call the tower, 845 completes the mission, prepares to return, over." Yang Luo contacted the tower.
"The tower has received it, you can return home, over." Luo Chengbin immediately gave permission.
"Understood."
His eyes glanced at the amount of fuel, and the fuel was sufficient, so he turned on the afterburner and turned to supersonic speed to return home.
Too tired and didn't want to return at cruising speed, it was too slow, Yang Luo just wanted to land and rest quickly.
