When the MiG-25 was designed, it was dedicated to special aircraft, and the R-40 missile was specially developed for the MiG-25. The initial MiG-25 can only carry R-40 missiles, which are very large in size and weight, only giving the MiG-25 the ability to intercept at medium distances, with limited overload and no close-range combat, so the MiG-25 interceptor will hardly fall into the way of close combat with the opponent.

It wasn't until the modified MiG-25PD, the fighter piloted by Andrey, that it was improved with a new radar and fire control system, as well as the ability to carry R-60 missiles at close range.

This is a third-generation air-to-air missile developed by the Soviet Union's Pennant Machine-Building Design Bureau at the end of the 60s to meet the needs of future air combat, which was put into production in 73 and entered service in 75, and NATO named it AA-8 "Aphid".

According to the previous tactical analysis, this new missile should have excellent maneuverability, so the previous situation of five big and three thick has been changed, the whole missile is small, the front four rectangular fixed stabilizer wings, and the trapezoidal tail to ensure the flight stability of the missile, and the front section of the missile body can move four triangular wings to control the flight direction of the missile. The maximum range of this light missile, which weighs only 65 kilograms, is only a dozen kilometers, but in the dense atmosphere at low altitudes, the effective range will be shortened to two kilometers.

Thanks to the use of a new seeker, the missile is capable of capturing targets more than any previous air-to-air missile, and after Andrey pressed the button, a puff of smoke flew out from under the wing, and an R-60 missile, fired at the chrysanthemum of the MiG-25 in front.

In the blazing tail flame, the R-25 engine of the MiG-15 engine with afterburner acceleration was still turned on, and the huge heat was a clear heat source, and the R-60 missile effortlessly hit one of the engines, and the 6-kilogram high-explosive fragmentation warhead exploded, countless fragments flew sideways, and suddenly, the R-15 engine emitted smoke and was injured!

It's just that the other party was injured! The Soviet defense industry, which was good at going to extremes, came up with a light R-60 missile, and its maneuverability was greatly improved, but the disadvantages were also prominent, the range was too close, and at the same time, because the warhead was too light, the lethality was limited!

The MiG-25, with only one engine left, is still flying! Belenko, who was in front, struggled to control the plane and continued to accelerate.

Why haven't the Americans come yet? If you don't come to pick me up again, I'm afraid I won't be able to fly to the American base!

Could it be that Anne did not send the intelligence to the American side? Wait a minute! Problematic! At the last moment, Belenko suddenly thought of something, how could Anne casually connect with the American side? What secret channels does she have? Unless she is an American intelligence agent herself! In the past few days, I have been fascinated by Annie, and Belenko is bent on being with Annie, and her brain has already begun to short-circuit. And now, I feel that there is a problem, although he had the idea of defecting by plane before, he has never put it into action, and now, almost entirely under the guidance of Anne, he has made actual actions!

It's just that at this time, he has no room for regret, he only hopes that Anne can notify the US government and let the other party hurry up to protect himself, by the way, just now when Sokolovka ordered Andrei to shoot down himself, it seemed that there were two targets approaching quickly! It's definitely here to protect yourself!

Just when he was flying with him, he saw four missiles mounted under Andrei's wings, Andrei would not let himself go, and there were three missiles, would he continue to attack him?

Belenko was hesitating for a moment when he felt a sudden shock in his body, and with it, the huge roar of the tail disappeared.

Damn, run out of fuel!

Before the fighter set off, the fuel was not much at all, and in order to avoid radar monitoring, Belenko had been flying in the dense atmosphere at low altitude, with high drag and high fuel consumption. If he continued to fly at low altitude, he would have been able to fly to Hokkaido, but he was chased by Andre, forcing him to turn on the afterburner to climb.

After driving the afterburner, fuel consumption soared, and just like that, less than a hundred nautical miles from Hokkaido, he had already exhausted all his fuel!

Without one engine, the MiG-25 can still fly, but if the power of both engines is lost, there is only one ending, crash!

After seeing that the fuel gauge indicated zero and the engine in the tail had stalled, Belenko had no choice but to eject and escape.

Buckle the sunglasses of his full-helmet flight helmet, fold his legs, pull the operating stick to change the plane to a level flight state, and after doing these actions, and then look at the height and speed of the fighter, they all meet the ejection conditions, take a deep breath, and Belenko pulled the ejection handle.

"Bang." As the cockpit canopy overhead was thrown off, the rocket of the KM-1 ejection seat at the bottom successfully ignited, propelling Belenko out of the cockpit and away from the fighter, and two seconds later, the seat separated from the person and the parachute opened.

Andrey, who was behind, had already prepared another R-40 missile, and he had already discovered that the lethality of the R-60 missile was limited, and in order to shoot down this steel fighter, this heavy missile had to be used.

And due to the limited range recently, Andrei needed to distance himself from the MiG-25 in front of him before he could launch the R-40 missile, and after such a delay of two seconds, the MiG-25 in front of him suddenly turned off the other engine.

What's going on? With his hand on the launch button, Andrei did not launch the missile and saw Belenko eject from the cockpit. And the MiG-25, on the other hand, was constantly decreasing in height and soon fell into the sea.

"032, return immediately, 032, return immediately, two targets, distance twenty, height twelve thousand, direction 190!" A voice from behind me came from the headphones.

In the long-range radar in the rear, Andrei's fighter could be seen firing missiles, although the time was a few seconds late, the defected fighter plane in front of it fell, so Kozhdub thought that Andrei had completed the task and immediately ordered him to return.

The two American fighters are already rapidly approaching, and Andrei, who is stunned, may be able to fight with the other side, shooting down his own defector fighter is one thing, and fighting with the other side's fighter plane is another matter. Kozhdub did not want to expand the conflict.
