Chapter 169: Turn off the engine
This is no longer a technical problem of the pilots, but of the helicopter itself; It would also take a lot of effort for a military helicopter to deal with the Stinger missile, let alone a civilian helicopter.
The Stinger missile is one of the best weapons of all surface-to-air missiles, having shot down nearly 300 helicopters.
Once entangled, unless it is a military helicopter, there is basically no possibility of escape for civilian helicopters.
Even if the driver is Deng Xuan, no matter how good he is; The plane in hand is not powerful, and it is useless.
The missile flew head-on towards the helicopter at three times the speed of the helicopter; Such a speed is not at all something that an ordinary helicopter can face.
Deng Xuan has rich experience in aircraft piloting and has also received professional training in being tracked by missiles; Although this time it may be more auspicious, he will not be so willing to face this fate.
When everyone was ready to face the impact, Deng Xuan roared; Pull the joystick all the way to the right and force the fuselage to the right.
Rolling over was not Deng Xuan's ultimate goal, under his control, the helicopter rotated and somersaulted to the right on the spot; The task force members had already tightened their grips on the handrails and fastened their seat belts, so the helicopter did not throw them out when it was somersault.
But to scare them out of the way, it's for sure that not many of them can do somersaults with helicopters.
When the helicopter flipped over, the missile flew almost past the fuselage; But it still failed to detonate, and flew straight ahead.
However, this was only the first impact, and the missile failed to hit the target; It quickly and automatically turns and continues to track the target
"Get ready for the onslaught!" Liang Ye said loudly.
But Deng Xuan was not reconciled, as one of the best pilots in the Air Force, he joined the ghost task force at the most glorious age of his life; As the captain, Liang Ye is interested in his aircraft piloting skills, and if he can create a miracle at this time, it can truly prove his top flying skills.
Deng Xuan gritted his teeth, feeling anxious in his heart, and then said loudly: "I want to turn off the engine." ”
As he spoke, Deng Xuan turned off the helicopter's engine, and the helicopter instantly stalled in the air.
This is arguably the best way to deal with surface-to-air missiles, which lock onto the heat source of the aircraft; Once the engine is turned off, the missile can be said to have lost its target.
However, almost no one would dare to turn off the engine of a helicopter in the air, and almost no one would dare to do so in a military helicopter.
The missile is still making a big trajectory turn, but the helicopter's engine has been turned off and the fuselage is falling rapidly; The missile could not track the heat source and could only fly according to the predetermined trajectory, but it would no longer track the helicopter of Liang Ye and others.
The helicopter was originally at an altitude of 1,300 meters, which is not very high for an airplane, and after the engine was turned off; The fuselage fell rapidly, and now that the missile was still flying along its original trajectory, it would take a little time for Deng Xuan to dare to restart the engine.
Liang Ye, who was sitting in the engine room, observed the missile's flight trajectory, and after the fuselage fell to a height of 900 meters, he shouted loudly: "Start the engine!" ”
After speaking, Liang Ye stretched out his hands and launched his ability in the direction of the missile.
The next moment, an extremely powerful wind appeared in the air, and this strong wind was not like the hurricane that had turned on the surface of the sea before, but just blew directly.
Liang Ye was using the ability, and Deng Xuan restarted the helicopter's engine, but now it was more troublesome for him to regain control of the fuselage, because the helicopter was still falling.
Both sides were busy, and Liang Ye controlled the wind direction, allowing the strong wind to interfere with the missile's flight trajectory.
Now even if the missile can recapture the helicopter's heat source, it will no longer be able to continue the return attack.
Under the interference of the wind in the night of the beam, the trajectory of the missile began to change; It turned out to be a missile that flew into the air, but now it flew towards the forest below.
By the time the missile flew downward, the fuselage was about to fall to the surface, and the other task force members in the cabin held their breath.
If the fuselage was directly shot on the water like this, then even if they were the most powerful combat troops in Shenzhou, they would definitely die.
At this time, no one wants to die, because they still have a lot of things to do, and Shenzhou still needs them.
Deng Xuan had already controlled the helicopter, but it would take a little time to raise the altitude; By the time he took control of the plane, the Stinger missile had landed in the forest.
"Boom!"
The missile hit the ground, and a ball of fire no less than Deng Xuan's magic lit up the dark sky.
Stinger missiles were originally used to destroy aircraft, and their power was unquestionable, and this one fell to the ground; The force of the explosion caused the fuselage of the helicopter to vibrate constantly, which added a lot of pressure to Deng Xuan, who was still in a tense state.
The fuselage was now flying almost against the water, and the light of the fire ahead illuminated the sea, making the helicopter look like it was flying on flames.
At this time, the helicopter was still less than 200 meters away from the island, and the impact of the missile was more than the fireball just now.
The fireball was sent by Deng Xuan, so he could control the spread of the flames, but now the missiles are not controlled in any way, and after the explosion, the flames ignited the trees in the forest, and they are spreading rapidly.
And years of combat experience tell Liang Ye that there must be countless enemies waiting for them in the forest; Gladys was so smart that she wouldn't be so stupid as to prepare just a few people to ambush her.
To deal with the ghost task force, not to mention a company, a division is a small number.
"Climb, climb!" Liang Ye shouted at Deng Xuan.
There are still enemies in the forest, and now the helicopter flying at ultra-low altitude is equivalent to being in front of the enemy's gunhole!
Of course, Deng Xuan knew what he had to do, and he pulled the joystick back to quickly increase the flight altitude.
But unlike a fighter jet, helicopters are more time-consuming to climb altitude; Moreover, the climb is very slow, and it is difficult to achieve the desired effect in case of emergency.
At the time of climbing, the helicopter had already entered the top of the island, and Deng Xuan tried his best to control the balance of the fuselage; After all, the helicopter had just been hit by a lot of heavy machine gun bullets, and the structure had already been damaged.
"Be careful, there are still enemies in the woods!" Zhou Yuying shouted.
And this is the time for Thunderstorm to show his powers, he picked up the automatic rifle in his hand; Then aim at the moving enemy below and pull the trigger hard.
There were many enemies below, and when the thunderstorm fired, they also began to counterattack.
The helicopter's altitude is increasing, but it is still within the range of a rifle; Some of the bullets hit the propeller of the helicopter, and for a moment there were sparks everywhere.
There were also bullets hitting the fuselage, making a crisp crashing sound.
Luckily, the rifle bullets didn't penetrate as much as the heavy machine guns, and they didn't pierce the fuselage.
