Chapter 896: Maverick Fights Challenger

"Hammer, the fire control system is ready. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" In the rear compartment of the Tornado, the weapon operator Scythe shouted to him.

If there is only one hammer, then there is still no way to attack, his front cabin can only operate the cannon, and the main weapons are controlled by the rear cabin. As a crew member, the two have been partners for three years, and they have been good friends since they were in aviation school.

And now, when the hammer is about to take off, the scythe does not hesitate to follow, and, now, without hesitation, the scythe operates the fire control system, ready to strike on the ground!

Due to the backwardness of the electronic system, the Tornado fighter was developed by the most advanced aviation industry in Western Europe, and the radar was not really a multi-purpose radar. There is no flat slot radar antenna, and there is no most advanced processing equipment, which is also a kind of helplessness when the Tornado fighter is developed, because the electronic technology is not up to standard, so it can only be divided into a ground attack type and an air defense interception type, carrying different equipment to achieve combat capability.

The technology of Western Europe has opened up a big gap between the United States and the Soviet Union.

Now, in front of the Tornado is the radar codenamed Foxhunter, which is an elliptical inverted antenna surface that is used to map, identify and target ground and air targets in combat, while providing information on the distance and angle of the target for airborne weapons.

And now, with the radiation of the electromagnetic waves of the radar, they have firmly locked on the targets on the ground, those tanks of the British!

In NATO's defense, when did it say that British tanks would come to their air bases? This is clearly infighting! The British, if they want to rely on the big tree of the Americans, to bully the Germans, they can't do it at all!

"Hammer, return and land immediately, don't make a mistake!" The sound of the tower came from the radio, and the people on the ground were also anxious.

In the past, during the exercise, there were accidental hits, which were forgivable, but now, this is an active attack! If such an event happens, it will be a mess within NATO!

"Hammer, be calm!" Another voice came, it was the voice of Wing Commander Hopper, who said: "You are a soldier, you must strictly obey orders!" Return now, or you'll be shot down by us!" ”

When he said this, Hopper was also extremely conflicted in his heart, the British who came from the opposite side did not have anti-aircraft missiles, but, as an air base, there must be anti-aircraft missiles deployed around.

It's just that if you use your own missiles to shoot down your own plane, if such a thing happens, it will really be a tragedy!

Hopper didn't want that to happen, he just wanted to convince his pilot to come back!

Moreover, on the base, the planes of the Americans also took off.

In this base, Germany's main air force is stationed, and at the same time there is an American air force, and the only thing that can make people breathe a sigh of relief is that the American planes are all A-10s, fighters specializing in ground attack, and they are also the main force for fighting tanks.

Just after a German Tornado fighter took off, the United States also reacted quickly, two A-10 attack planes, mounted with two Sidewinder missiles, took off like this, and it was extremely funny to use a ground attack aircraft to carry out air combat missions, and now as a party, no one will feel funny, and the efficiency of the Americans' sorties is too surprising to them!

It's too late to turn back at this time! Although Hopper was also extremely angry at the behavior of the British, he had to restrain his troops and not do anything more out of the ordinary!

"I came up this time, and I didn't plan to go back alive!" At this time, the hammer piloting the plane was still stunned and impulsive: "British, tell you again, get out of Lao Tzu immediately!" ”

At this time, the radios were all on the public channel, and everyone could hear the sound, and Commander Eyler's face suddenly became ugly, he pressed the intercom on his chest, and said inside: "The British Fifth Regiment is on the order of the NATO command to come to Nerfenich Air Base to carry out a mission, please give your understanding and cooperation, and we will continue to move forward." ”

His answer was neither humble nor arrogant, if he was still a little worried just now, now, hearing that the German commander also condemned the plane and threatened it with missiles, Eyler's mood relaxed a little, if he retreated at this time, then the British army would not want to raise its head in front of the German army in the future! How can the army of a group of defeated and surrendered countries intimidate the royal army of Great Britain!

"Scythe, fire a calf." The sound of the hammer, very clear on the radio: "Aim for the first tank!" ”

"Understood!" The scythe in the aft compartment has been supplied with radar to the Maverick missile, and the TV-guided Maverick missile, the seeker has been firmly locked onto the Challenger tank on the ground.

Turning off the radio, the hammer continued: "Deviate a little and hit the open space in front of them." ”

Although he was very excited when he first took off, but now, the hammer's brain is sober, at this time, he can't really fire at the British, he was indignant when he just took off, and now, he has to think about more consequences.

However, the attitude of the British is too hateful! You have to teach them a lesson, simply, hit the open space in front of the other party!

"Understood." The scythe in the aft compartment shouted, and then pressed the launch button.

A Maverick missile, dragging a tongue of fire, flew out of the pylons on the belly of the plane and flew towards the ground! As an excellent air-to-surface missile, fighting tanks is what Mavericks are best at!

The TV seeker stared closely at the Challenger tank inside the target, and it could be seen that the Challenger tank began to maneuver rapidly, the engine in the tail emitted black smoke to accelerate, and at the same time, the smoke launcher in front also began to continuously release black smoke, trying to cover the entire tank.

"Damn, the Germans really dare to launch missiles, fast, fast accelerate!" The commander was still shouting loudly, and when he reached the top of the turret, there was a violent explosion.

"Boom!" The speed of the Maverick missile is not large, only Mach 1.2, and when attacking armored targets, it can only rely on the shaped warhead, although the charge of the shaped warhead is 37.6 kg, but if it hits the armor directly in front of the challenger, it may be able to carry it.

However, the top of the turret is not in this list! The armor protection of any tank is not exhaustive, the front armor is the thickest, the side and rear armor is thin, and the thinnest part of all the armor is the top of the turret!

The moment the Maverick missile began to attack the top, the Challenger was drilled through from the top! Then, an even louder explosion sounded on the tank, and at the seat of the turret, a flame mixed with air jets erupted, and the ammunition inside exploded! (To be continued.) )
