Chapter 444 - The Right to Information, the Right to Electromagnetism
At the time of development, the United States attached great importance to the anti-electronic jamming capability of the airborne radar, and they also knew that with the end of the fighting in the island country, the Soviet Union had obtained the American F-15 fighter, and it would definitely study this kind of fighter. The www.biquge.info uses digital technology to use radar, which can be easily adjusted to new frequency bands.
The side lobes of the radar are very low, so this radar also has a good anti-jamming ability, but, right now, it is jammed by the electronic jammers of the Soviets!
At the same time, James was frightened, and quickly flipped the switch, since the automatic mode cannot be tracked, then turn to the manual mode! He fully believed in his own technology, and confrontation in a complex electromagnetic environment was the strong point of American fighter pilots.
Rather than directly displaying radar echoes, this Honeywell vertical situational display displays radar information processed by the IBMCP-1075 central computer, displaying filtered radar images and providing data on the target's altitude, IFF response, low velocity, and more. So, there is no such snowflake-like image that the early radar was jammed with, but, without the target display, he simply could not lock onto the target!
There was a stabbing sound in the headset, and the communication with the rear guidance station was also in a state of intermittentness, only the data link of frequency hopping was still working, sending the target's data.
The distance between the two sides has approached thirty kilometers!
At this moment, the sound of the radar warning receiver came from Captain James's headphones, and it was obvious that the other party had locked on himself!
Damn it! At this time, the two F-15 fighters had already flown into Iranian airspace, and the Soviets flying opposite them, since they had locked on, they would definitely dare to open fire!
Is it so retreating? If you go back like this, you will simply be disgraced by the US Air Force! With this in mind, Captain James pushed the lever and made a dashing roll to get rid of the lock-on of the other party.
The radar used by the other party does not seem to be an advanced model, Captain James has already begun to calculate in his heart at this time, in terms of altitude and speed, it is not the MiG-25 that scratches his head the most, it seems that it should be the MiG-23! Against this kind of fighter, you still have a great deal of certainty!
In the dark night sky, you can't see anything, you can fly completely by instruments, and losing your radar is equivalent to losing a pair of eyes, Captain James's best choice at this time is to return, but unfortunately, his pride makes him unable to retreat without a fight.
Major Yuri sat in the cockpit, although his radar was no longer responsive, but the AWACS aircraft in the rear were constantly refreshing the situation on the front line for him through the data link, and the other party was maneuvering through the S, getting rid of the lock of his squadron, and at the same time, it was still approaching them, and the distance was less than ten kilometers!
If it were daytime, in a clear sky, this would already be the distance where the other party could be seen visually, but now, the two sides are still in the dark, flying in the sky with guidance.
"342, 344, turn in the direction of three o'clock and go around the back of the Americans to raid!" Major Yuri gave orders over the radio. If the Americans still want to fly forward, then don't blame yourself!
"342 received."
"344 Roger."
The wings of the two MiG-23 fighters swept back and turned to the side, with the help of AWACS, they were like having bright eyes, copying the Americans from behind, leaving them with no way to escape!
The distance of ten kilometers is almost an instant for the fighters in the air, and just when James was concentrating on preparing to deal with the two incoming fighters in front of him, trying to use the Sidewinder missile to lock onto the head, there was a huge explosion in the tail.
"Boom!"
No matter what time it is, the tail chase attack is always the most effective, and the blazing wake of the engine in the tail of the fighter is the most effective guidance heat source for the infrared seeker!
The two MiG-23s that circled behind the US fighters each fired an R-60 missile, one of which accurately hit the tail of the F-15 fighter, but the other missile was thrown off by the infrared decoy bomb urgently fired by the wingman of the F-15 fleet.
With the sound from the tail, James felt the trembling of the fighter, and at the same time, the red light on the dashboard flashed, and the left hair failed!
With the smoke in tow, the F-15 crashed downward, and James did not choose to parachute, he was still trying his best to save the plane.
It's dark at night, and with the rolling mountains below, there's a great chance of skydiving here.
This time the air duel ended quickly, the Americans had two fighters, one was damaged, and the other escaped from the border line, in order to prevent accidents, the MiG-23 fleet did not choose to rashly pursue.
They cruised along the national border to prevent the other side's subsequent take-off fighters from coming to make trouble, and to protect the smooth progress of their own airborne landing.
The success of this air battle shows a truth: Only by mastering the power of information and electromagnetic power can we master the power of the air!
And while they were fighting, the landing began.
As the red light in the cabin of the Il-76 transport aircraft flashed, the tail door slowly opened, and suddenly, the icy air flow rushed to the face.
The paratroopers lined up, one by one, and after checking the parachutes one last time, turned on the light source they carried on their chests.
Airborne at night, the danger is quite great, but the most paratroopers, they absolutely cannot avoid risks, to be the all-weather paratroopers that the motherland needs, is their task!
The tail hatch was flattened and turned downward, forming an inclined plane, and the BMD paratrooper vehicle on the internal slipway, already under traction, was slowly moving towards the rear. On the paratrooper car, the four light sources in the four corners are all lit.
"Airdrop begins!" Molenko shouted loudly, looking at the BMD paratrooper car, which was easily thrown, and with it, several parachutes opened, and against the backdrop of the light source, it was very beautiful.
Three paratrooper cars, all thrown down quickly, Morenko was the first, jumping out of the cabin.
The cold wind blowing on his face stirred his nerves, and he did not open the parachute immediately, but fell in the direction of the light source of the paratrooper car, and was as comfortable in the air as in the water.
Finally, catching up with the paratrooper car, Molenko pulled the parachute line and felt the whole body tighten, and the umbrella had opened.
When you look up, the umbrella surface is illuminated by a dark green light source, like a sky lantern. (To be continued.) )
