≦≧≦≧≦≧≦≧≦≧≦≧ air defense reports echoed over the entire Tehran air base, and the pilots were running quickly towards their fighters, preparing to take off to meet the enemy
The two Tomcat fighters were the first to take off, and most of them stayed on the ground, because of the lack of parts, they were reluctant to take off many times, but in today's situation, they will exert their greatest power
Each Tomcat fighter is equipped with an immortal bird missile, which once made the Iraqi Air Force fear of high-power missiles, not much in stock, so it is usually only mounted on one at most, and now that the situation is urgent, if you want to mount one more, I am afraid that it will be destroyed on the ground before it takes off
Abbas piloted his Tomcat fighter and felt a lot of pressure on his shoulders, it is said that there are more than 20 enemy planes attacking this time, are they sure that they will take them all down?
However, the Iranian Air Force must not be disgraced even if it is shot down by the other side, and the plane that will kill the Iraqis Abbas began to have a blazing flame in his eyes, he fought for Iran, for the great leader Ayatollah Khomeini
The huge tomcat spreads its wings, the engine turns on the afterburner, and the tomcat spreads its wings and soars into the sky
Behind him, the wingman Akbari also took off, but Akbari and Abbas were in different moods, and he was tired of the war
Every time he took off, there were fewer people who could come back, and the brothers who went to Isfahan suffered a lot of losses, he couldn't see the future, although he was piloting a Tomcat fighter, but the Iraqis were getting braver and braver, and they themselves had been beaten and lost their spirit
In fact, in the Iranian army, this negative atmosphere has begun to spread to one army and one country, and if they always lose the war, then their citizens will inevitably be pessimistic, which is undoubtedly the opposite, Iraq is like a rainbow
"Blue Bird, keep up, your degree is slow" came the sound of a long machine from inside the headphones
The Blue Bird is Akbari's calling code
"Yes," Akbari pushed the throttle and came up
The two quickly climbed to 5,000 meters, and at the same time, the radar behind the long plane Abbas turned on the radar and began to monitor the airspace within a radius of nearly 200 kilometers
AWG9 radar signals, which began to appear in the sky
At this time, Adnan's two formations, having completed the task of firing shè missiles, began to return to Arslan's formation to fly in front to provide escort for the bombing formation in the rear
"Report, the suspicious targets are divided into three groups, the first batch has ten targets very close to the height of the ground, only less than 100 meters away from a hundred kilometers, the second batch of eight targets at an altitude of more than 300 meters above the ground, a distance of 130 kilometers, the third batch of twelve targets, about 500 meters high, a distance of 170 kilometers" The radar officer in the rear cabin looked at the light spots on the screen and reported to Abbas
In fact, the first batch was originally sixteen targets, but the Red Bird 2 missile flew too low, and the AWG9 radar was able to search for these targets from a low altitude, which was already very good
Sure enough, there were nearly 30 targets in a large group of aircraft, and the Iraqi Air Force seemed to be ruthless, and Abbas asked: "Are the fighters behind keeping up?" ”
"The J-7 formation is taking off, and the F4 formation is urgently hanging bombs"
The F4 fighter is not on combat readiness, so it only has two close-range Sidewinder missiles on board, and if it wants to carry out an air interception mission, it is also necessary to mount a medium-range Sparrow air-to-air missile, and the ground crew is nervously mounting, so they have not yet taken off
It seems that Abbas can only rely on himself Abbas began to analyze, the height of the first batch of targets is too low, and the immortal bird missiles cannot attack at all, and the second batch of targets is too low, only the third batch of targets, which is barely enough
First send the immortal bird shè and hit the third batch of targets Generally speaking, the opponent's bomber group will fly last, and the bomber group is the most threatening
"Attention, there is a Tomcat radar signal ahead" Arslan radioed, informing the entire formation "immediately climb higher and prepare for battle"
Flying at low altitude is to conceal their whereabouts, and now, there is a radar signal from the Tomcat fighter, which means that it has been discovered by the other party, so what they need is to climb higher, occupy the altitude advantage, and prepare for air combat
Although last time, Arslan was shamelessly deceived by the Iranians, he thought that he shot down a Tomcat fighter, but, after the analysis, it was just a J-7 fighter with a radar signal pod that could send shè this kind of fighter, and in his shot down record, there was one less Tomcat fighter, and because he changed the target assigned to him that time, he was severely punished, and, if it wasn't for the needs of this battle, it is very likely that he would be transferred out of the combat unit, and any punishment can be made, You just can't be transferred out of the combat unit, Arslan is honest this time
The other party appeared this kind of radar signal, whether it was a real Tomcat fighter, or an electronic pod hung again, Arslan felt that it was still the possibility of the former, because what they attacked this time was the capital of Iran, and Iran's only remaining Tomcat fighters were all arranged here, and their attack aircraft group was discovered, and if the Iranian Tomcat fighters did not take off, it would be a little abnormal
Arslan, the tomcat who killed the Iranians, felt his blood boiling again, he was born to exist for war
"The second batch of targets is starting to climb higher" When preparing to launch the shè immortal bird missile, the radar officer cāo discovered the climb of the second batch of targets
"The original plan remains the same, or to attack the two fighters in the third group of targets" Abbas said, he knows very well that the second group of targets climb high, it must be the opponent's fighter jets, to engage themselves, then the rear, is definitely bombers, they need to attack bombers, in order to minimize the pressure on their own air defense
"Blue Bird, prepare to launch shè Immortal Bird missiles to attack one of the third batch of targets," Abbas informed the wingman
"Blue Bird received," Akbari replied, and his fighter radar was turned on, locking on one of the fighters
The Tu-22 is a medium-range sound strategic bomber, with a three-person crew, which is Iraq's strategic air bombing force, with a strong ability to drop bombs and a large size
Moreover, like other Soviet military aircraft, this bomber did not have an omnidirectional radar receiver, and they were not yet aware of the fact that Iranian Tomcat fighters were locked directly in front of them
They were still flying smoothly
When climbing to an altitude of 3,000 meters, Arslan turned on the radar, TWS mode, and scanned the entire airspace, and suddenly, on the radar screen at the bottom left of his cockpit, two bright spots appeared, that is, the two warplanes of the Iranians were still about 80 kilometers away from him
"At six o'clock ahead, there are two enemy planes, ready for medium-range bombs," Arslan said
At this time, he found that next to the two bright spots on the radar screen, two small bright spots suddenly appeared, and the small bright spots were moving fast, and it must have been the other party's missile
Moreover, the height of that bright spot is constantly increasing, which is the typical way of fighting of the undead birds
The other side sent the Immortal Bird missile, then, it must be the Tomcat fighters of the Iranians who are here, and they finally met the Tomcat fighters of the Iranians
"Attention, open the afterburner, I and the No. 2 aircraft are ready to attack the target, and the No. 3 and No. 4 planes are ready to make up the shè" Arslan said "The rear formation is attentive, the enemy plane fires the immortal bird missile, and the steering evasion"
It is not clear who the two immortal bird missiles attacked, in short, their own formation did not receive the signal locked by the radar, then it was not their own, and if the other side attacked the bombers in the rear, they wanted to protect the bombers, that is, before the undead birds attacked their own bombers, shoot down the Tomcat
So, on the one hand, he reminded the fighters in the rear to pay attention, and on the other hand, he began the battle with the Tomcat
Arslan is very confident that now, the distance between the two sides has approached 60 kilometers, and they are carrying AIM7F missiles, which can be sent at a distance of 40 kilometers, while Iran is still carrying the old AIM7E, which can only be effective when it is 30 kilometers away
These 10 kilometers are their chances to win
Receiving the order, the formation began to increase, and the distance between the two sides was rapidly approaching
"The second group of fighters is approaching at a high level," said the radar officer
Although the Immortal Bird missile uses an active seeker and flies by a preset program in the first half, and the active radar looks for the target by itself in the second half, which can completely get rid of the constraints of the carrier aircraft, however, if it wants to successfully hit the target, the carrier aircraft radar must continue to shine on the target, and modify the flight trajectory of the immortal bird from time to time according to the maneuver of the target, otherwise, wait until the immortal bird flies close to the distance where the missile-borne radar can be turned on about 20 kilometers. The other party didn't know where he flew to
Therefore, if they want the radar to hit the target, they have to use the radar to shine on the target, which means that they cannot use their medium-range Sparrow air-to-air missiles to strike at the approaching fighters, because the Sparrow is semi-actively guided, and with the Sparrow, the radar has to put all its power on the guided Sparrow missile
"Continue to guide the immortal" Abbas was very determined
At this time, the sound of jing in the radar alarm machine came from the earphones, and they had been locked by each other
At this time, Akbari in the back no longer has the confidence to go to the pride of the sky, whether the immortal bird can hit is secondary, if he doesn't take any more measures, he will definitely be hit
Akbari pulls the rudder and starts to roll sideways, allowing itself to fly perpendicular to the direction of the opponent's radar beam to release the opponent's lock (to be continued)
